Knowing that Yongzheng died of pill poisoning, why did Qianlong deliberately let go of the alchemy T

The main reason why Qianlong let those Taoist priests go was to "cover up his ugliness" for his father。As we all know, Yongzheng has always been obsessed with immortality, so he gathered a lot of Taoist priests in the palace to refine the pill for himself to take every day, and finally died because of the poisoning of the pill. <>

If it is said that the Taoist priest who killed the alchemy, it is equivalent to confirming the cause of Yongzheng's death, which is equivalent to telling the world that Emperor Yongzheng died by taking pills, and then not only will it damage the image of Yongzheng, but Qianlong himself will also have a reputation for unfilial piety. Therefore, Qianlong did not want to kill these Taoist priests, but he did not dare to kill them, and it was helpless to let go of this group of Taoist priests. <>

Looking at the history books, it is not difficult for us to find that generally speaking, the scandals of the royal family will not choose to be made public, especially this kind of violent death of the king, which is even more secretive. Qianlong, as the son and heir of Emperor Yongzheng, must be cautious about the violent death of the first emperor, so Qianlong issued a holy decree full of loopholes.

In the holy decree, Qianlong said this, "Although my father is very fond of you, he only treats you like clowns, and has never listened to your words, nor has he taken your medicine, and he also knows that you people like to make things up, but they are not bad, so he has said many times in front of me, so that I can be lenient with you, and now I will only expel you back to your hometown, if you are gone, you will slander my father by relying on the fact that you have lived in the palace for a few years, once it is verified, immediately correct the law, Never forgive. ”

This sentence can be said to be full of loopholes now, and Qianlong's holy decree said that "I have not listened to a single word of him, and I have not used a single medicine of him" is obviously inconsistent with historical facts, and this is nothing more than "there is no silver three hundred taels here". So from the bottom of this, the reason why Qianlong chose to let this group of Taoist priests go was mainly to maintain the royal face.

If Emperor Qianlong really executed a large number of alchemy Taoist priests after the death of Emperor Yongzheng, then this is undoubtedly the real cause of Emperor Yongzheng's death made public. So, where is the royal face? Where is the majesty of Yongzheng?

If the public knew that Yongzheng died of the pill, wouldn't it be a joke, so Qianlong turned a blind eye, let them live, and let them not mention the first emperor a word.

If Qianlong really executed all the alchemists, it would be tantamount to making the cause of Emperor Yongzheng's death public, which would damage the majesty of the imperial family.

If you kill them immediately, wouldn't you directly tell the people of the world that Yong died because of taking the pill?

The cause of Yongzheng's death is still a mystery, and there is no definite answer yet.

Not necessarily, Yongzheng's corpse has no head, how can you leave your head after eating alchemy

The wild history is not credible, it was sick and died, and it is true that alchemy damaged Yongzheng's health, but it is true that the Qing history manuscript did not say whether Yongzheng was poisoned by the pill, and the Qing history manuscript only said that Yongzheng died of illness.

It's just a guess, and no one can tell! ~

This is only one aspect, a historical mystery.

Is it or not? Then you can only ask him about this. However, the wild history records that the long-term use of pills led to chronic poisoning and death.

According to the official history, Yong died violently because of overwork, because he was reviewing the chapters.

It is said that he was killed by Lu Siniang.

Lu Siniang cut off his head

Unlikely, I think he's exhausted.

He died of illness. Due to overwork.

In fact, everyone is very curious about the cause of Yongzheng's death, but according to the records, it can be inferred that the reason why Yongzheng died in the end was actually due to his overwork. Yongzheng is a very dedicated emperor, when he ascended the throne in the early stage, in fact, his daily workload was very large, and for a period of time, he even had to watch more than a thousand pieces of music every day.

Under such work intensity, in fact, Yongzheng's physical condition has not been very good, and the disputes within the court at that time were actually quite serious, and Yongzheng also spent too much thought on this. So in the early days, in fact, his body was in a state of exhaustion.

In fact, according to the records, everyone can see that most of Yongzheng went to listen to the government during the day, and then discuss the major events of the court at that time with some **, and at night will review the chapters. And he himself will personally watch almost all the pieces, and such a large amount of work, coupled with such an intensity of work, makes him too tired in the later period.

And Yongzheng actually sensed that his physical condition was not very good, so he always took the pills given to him by the Tai Hospital, which is why some people said that Yongzheng would eventually die because he took too many pills. Many people suspected that the pill Yongzheng was taking contained toxins, which caused him to take such pills for a long time, so he finally died.

In fact, it is difficult to confirm in this, but if you say this, there will actually be a lot of truth, plus he has been taking pills for a long timeThe toxins in the body gradually accumulate, and the body is relatively tired, so it is most likely to be attacked quickly.

should have died normally, after all, Yongzheng is also a smart person, how could he let others harm him.

This is not very clear, it should not be poisoned, I think it is more likely to die of old age.

I feel more inclined to believe that he died of natural causes and for no other reason.

There are many theories, and we can't know what it is.

There are many theories about this issue, but none of them have definite evidence, so everything is just speculation.

There are different opinions in history, some people say that it was assassinated early, some people say that they died by poisoning, and all of them are reasonable.

Both of these theories exist, but I think the possibility of assassination is relatively small, after all, the palace is very heavily guarded.

If people know that Emperor Yongzheng died because of superstitious pill poisoning, it will damage the image of the Qing Dynasty and Yongzheng. So Qianlong deliberately covered up the past.

For the sake of the royal family, if you kill these Taoist priests, it is not to tell others that his father died of pill poisoning. So all things considered, he finally let them go.

Because after all, it is a royal family, saying that the dignified emperor was poisoned by the pill is making fun of the poor security of the palace, and it is also to prove that Yongzheng wants to live forever, so he wants to let the Taoist priest go.
