After Yongzheng took the throne, why was he the first to copy Cao Xueqin s house?

The reason why Cao Xueqin, who was born in a famous family, fell into poverty was because after Emperor Yongzheng ascended the throne, he copied Cao Xueqin's home. So why did Emperor Yongzheng raid Cao Xueqin's house in the first place?

"The Cao family was copied, and it was completely self-inflicted", the culprit is that Kangxi is too conniving.

After Kangxi ascended the throne, he gave the fat difference of Jiangning weaving to the Cao family, and also let the Cao family concurrently serve as the two Huai patrol salt inspectors and imperial history. Between the 65 years from the second year of Kangxi (1663) to the fifth year of Yongzheng (1727), Jiangning weaved this official position, and the Cao family held it for 58 years.

Kangxi went to the south of the Yangtze River six times, and lived in the Cao family four times, which was the peak moment of the Cao family. However, the Cao family was incompetent, and in summary, there were only two reasons why the Cao family was raided: the deficit and Cao's incompetence.

It is difficult for future generations to calculate the amount of the Cao family's deficit of silver taels, especially when they spent money like water to receive Kangxi, to the point of jaw-dropping.

Cao Xueqin, a generation of literary giants, was raided by Emperor Yongzheng, but he did not have any official position during the period of Emperor Yongzheng and did not do anything wrong. Ancient emperors believed that the whole world belonged to their family, and they could do whatever they wanted. Since ancient times, emperors have made no mistakes, and they have lived up to the handsome talents in the world.

Yongzheng copied Cao Xueqin's home for this reason. But this is only a superficial reason, the fundamental reason is that Emperor Yongzheng believes that Cao Xueqin is friendly with Emperor Kangxi, and Emperor Kangxi has gone to Jiangnan 6 times, all of which live in Cao Xueqin's mansion.

Cao Xueqin has been blessed with the emperor's grace many times, and has changed from a royal servant to Jiangning weaving. Jiangning Weaving was responsible for all the manufacturing in southern China, which at the time was a fat gap. Emperor Yongzheng thought that Cao Xueqin was under the care of Emperor Kangxi and had a wealthy family, so he copied Cao Xueqin's mansion and could fill the treasury.

Thousands of calculations, but Emperor Yongzheng did not calculate that Cao Xueqin's family was poor. Although Cao Xueqin has a close relationship with Emperor Kangxi, Emperor Kangxi is more frugal, leads by example, and does not allow the court to sell and disturb talents to accumulate property, he hopes that every penny will be spent on major things that benefit the country and the people. During the reign of Emperor Kangxi, he went down to the south of the Yangtze River six times for the flooding of the south of the Yangtze River, and each time he lived in Cao Xueqin's house, and the expenses of all the entourages were borne by Cao Xueqin's family, which was also a big expense.

In fact, Cao Xueqin's family is also strong and middle-class, and has no savings.

Cao Xueqin was raided by Emperor Yongzheng, and there were two indirect reasons, one is that during the reign of Emperor Kangxi, he pacified Zhun Geerdan, dredged Caoyun, cut the three feudatories, and fought for many years, spending a huge amount of money, and there was little left in the treasury. In his later years, the Kangxi Emperor was not energetic, and the corruption in the imperial court was serious, leaving the Qing Dynasty with the noisy Yongzheng Emperor an empty shelf. In order to solve the urgent need, Emperor Yongzheng copied the court officials he thought were rich, which was the fastest and most effective method.

He wrote in the appendix on the Dream of Red Mansions that Emperor Yongzheng killed his brother and usurped the throne, and after Yongzheng saw it, he felt that Cao Xueqin was rebellious, so he raided his house.

It was because he spoke too bluntly and hurt Yongzheng's self-esteem. So Yongzheng directly raided his house in order to punish him.

They didn't do anything wrong, it's just that their Volokskaya Feng family is too rich. This is because their family is too rich, and his lack of wealth has surpassed that of the state, and he did not donate money to the country, so the trace led to Yongzheng's raid.

Be. In fact, Wei Dongting is the prototype of Cao Yin, the ancestor of the Cao family, Wei Dongting patrolled the south of the Yangtze River in Kangxi for the sixth time, spent a lot of money in order to receive Kangxi, and then borrowed money from the treasury and lost several million taels.

Later, Kangxi asked Yongzheng, who was still the fourth master at the time, to recover the deficit, Cao Yin was forced to commit suicide, and since then Kangxi has treated Cao Yin's descendants preferentially, but after Kangxi's death, Cao Yin's descendants were pampered and arrogant as officials, and there was a lot of silver shortage.

In the sixth year of Yongzheng (1728): The Cao family committed a crime and raided the house. Cao Fu is in prison at the age of 31. Cao Xueqin is 14 years old and has a good education. The family moved to Beijing, and the family fortune plummeted, and the gap far exceeded that of Lu Xun's early years, which is indelible.

In the fifth year of Qianlong (Gengshen 1740), Honghui, the eldest son of Yinren, the prince of Kangxi, plotted to establish the imperial court, secretly assassinated Qianlong, and failed. Xueqin's family was involved and confiscated again, and the family was ruined. Xueqin is poor and homeless. He served as a writer of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Qianlong, Qianlong's four years, Honghui's rebellion case.

It was him, because Cao Xueqin's father was involved in the partisan dispute in the court at that time, and then his family was raided.

Yes, unfortunately involved in the consequences of the nine sons seizing the heir.

Yes, the time is about 5 years of Yongzheng.

The main reason is that when Yongzheng ascended the throne, Cao Xueqin's family lost millions of silver taels in the weaving industry, and Yongzheng ordered them to make up for this shortfall, but at that time, the head of the Cao family was still bargaining with Emperor Yongzheng.

During Kangxi's reign, the relationship with the Cao family was very good, and Kangxi would live in the Cao family every time he made a private tour, and the emperor must have been entertaining well when he came, and over time, the Cao family had a deficit.

And the Cao family's life at that time was also very luxurious, Hu Shi once commented on the Cao family, saying that they like to put up shelves very much, and the food and clothing are the best, and they also like to collect books, and they also love to use money to attract people with lofty ideals, and they will also use money to tie up with big officials, so the Cao family's deficit is getting bigger and bigger.

The head of the Cao family does not know how to manage money, and he has no way to do a good job in their own weaving industry, always losing money, and in the end the weaving industry is still handed over to others to be in charge, so the Cao family gradually lost its income, but there are still a lot of expenses.

However, Kangxi was very good to the Cao family at that time, and once told the Cao family to try their best to make up for the losses and not to rush, and there were some natural disasters at that time, and the court also needed money to relieve the disaster, but Kangxi still told the Cao family to be careful in making up for the losses.

However, this was not the case after Yongzheng ascended the throne, Emperor Yongzheng was originally a very frugal person, so when he saw that the Cao family had lost so much silver, he was very angry and asked them to make up for it as soon as possible, but the Cao family at that time had no way to make up for it, and after the deadline given by the emperor expired, they still did not make up for it, so the emperor ordered the house to be raided.

The master and servant were all driven to live in the western suburbs of Beijing. From a life of spending money and worry-free food and clothing, to a hard life of poverty and making ends meet, it is all an overnight thing. Why did Emperor Yongzheng copy Cao Xueqin's house?

Cao Fu, a scholar, had no way to manage it, which caused a serious deficit in Jiangnan weaving and became the fuse for the Cao family to be raided. The fundamental reason why the Cao family was raided by Yongzheng was that Cao Fu had no way to operate. The ancestors of the Cao family had a close relationship with Emperor Kangxi when they were Emperor Kangxi, and they were celebrities around the emperor.

Cao Fu is a scholar and is very accomplished in literature. When he took up the position of Jiangning weaving, his recitals were often appreciated by Yongzheng. is such a talent, but he doesn't have any brains about management.

Under his management, Jiangning's weaving business became increasingly bleak, often making ends meet. From the initial large tribute to the current large deficit. At the time of the largest deficit, there were hundreds of thousands of snowflakes and silver.

It's normal to be raided, and after offending the emperor in ancient times, it didn't end up being raided.

Because the Cao family held an important position at that time, and it also affected the economy at that time, it fell to such a point.

This is because the status of Yongmeng Hunger is very high at that time, and it can also determine the direction of their family. So after he offended Yongzheng, he would fall to the point of raiding his home.

Because Cao Xueqin's family was framed, they will end up in the situation of raiding their home.
