    Because a person's ambition will continue to swell, and Yang Xiuqing, the king of the East, is not satisfied with his subordinate status, so he naturally has the idea of killing Hong Xiuquan to seize the throne. The Taiping Rebellion was undoubtedly a successful peasant uprising, and although it did not succeed in the end, it achieved the impact that an uprising should have, but although the process of the Taiping Rebellion was vigorous, it could not escape the fate of failure, after all, there were big problems with its leaders.

    InIn the summer of that year, the subordinates of Yang Xiuqing, the king of the East, told Hong Xiuquan that Yang Xiuqing was preparing to kill Hong Xiuquan and seize the throne. Hong Xiuquan, who learned the news, was very nervous, and summoned Shi Dakai and others to prepare to preemptively get rid of Yang Xiuqing. In fact, at that time, Yang Xiuqing's ambitions grew with the gradual improvement of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement.

    After all, in his opinion, Hong Xiuquan has been sitting in the position of this leader for a long time, and it is easy to say that Hong Xiuquan is capable, but the problem is that Yang Xiuqing has always thought that Hong Xiuquan is not worthy of the position, so he is also very unconvinced in his heart.

    Yang Xiuqing has shown his ambition many times before, in addition to suppressing other kings through various ways and means, Yang Xiuqing also mixed private goods when presiding over the imperial examination to show his influence. And what made Hong Xiuquan feel most uneasy was that he had previously blamed himself in the name of "Heavenly Father". In this case, Hong Xiuquan already had a defensive heart for this brother who was born and died with him, so after hearing the news of Dongwang's subordinates this time, Hong Xiuquan also found an excuse to attack Yang Xiuqing.

    However, for Yang Xiuqing's rebellion, it is actually understandable, after all, a capable person is absolutely unwilling to be subservient, and Hong Xiuquan himself is indeed incapable, so under his ambition, Yang Xiuqing chose to take risks.

    The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom left the auxiliary army division of the Eastern King Yang Xiuqing.

    In September 1856, Yang Xiuqing was killed in the Tianjing Incident, and almost no family members were spared.

    The Tianjing Incident. After the establishment of the capital of Tianjing in 1853, Yang Xiuqing frequently used the privilege of issuing edicts on behalf of his Heavenly Father, mostly to deal with internal conflicts and exclude dissidents. In August 1856, after commanding the Taiping Army to break through the camp in Jiangnan, Yang Xiuqing used this great achievement as an excuse to pass the decree on behalf of the Heavenly Father, asking Hong Xiuquan to crown him from "9,000 years old" to "Long live".

    Taking this incident as a guide, Chen Chengying, the commander of the internal officials, told Hong Xiuquan that Yang Xiuqing was going to seek to usurp the throne. When Hong Xiuquan learned of this, he immediately sent a secret edict to let Wei Changhui, the king of the north, Shi Dakai, and others, who were leading the troops outside, return to Tianjing to kill Yang Xiuqing.

    On September 2, 1856, the Tianjing Incident broke out, Wei Changhui led 3,000 soldiers to raid the Dongwang Mansion by night, and Yang Xiuqing, his family and subordinates were almost slaughtered.

    1.After setting the capital Tianjing, Hong Xiuquan became the lord of all the countries in the world, and Tianjing was called "Little Paradise". The palace room is built in a large way, and it is extremely magnificent.

    Although there is a holy treasury in charge of finance, but there is no restriction on the kings and high-ranking **, most of the leaders began to covet enjoyment and did not want to make progress. The top leaders of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom gradually detached themselves from the masses. They imitated the pomp and style of the feudal ruling class.

    2.The struggle for power and profit within the leading group led to the Tianjing Rebellion and Shi Dakai's departure, and the internal contradictions and struggles intensified.

    3.The strength of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was weakened, and the foreign invaders colluded with the Qing **, and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom went from prosperity to decline after the Tianjing Incident.
