Li Hong shocked Kangxi.
According to the Complete Works of Imperial Poetry, in the summer of the 60th year of Kangxi, when he was only 1 1 year old, he recited a long article (about 5000 words) and wrote it word for word. Not only was his father Yin Zhen (Yong Zhengdi, Prince Yong) surprised, but even the old eunuch who had just stayed to serve Kangxi was very surprised.
Yongzheng was awakened by the words of the old eunuch. He thought his son Li Hong could satisfy Kangxi, so he took it to heart. Yongzheng was urged by his son before he was ready. At this time, 12-year-old Li Hong said to his parents when he met his father and mother, "Why can't he meet his grandfather who is the emperor?" So Yongzheng made up his mind to arrange.
There was a gift garden called Yuanmingyuan in Yongzheng. According to Records of the Holy Father of Qing Dynasty, Kangxi visited 1 1 times in his later years, which other princes never enjoyed. Many people thought it was because Yongzheng was deeply liked by Kangxi after he was far away from the center of the imperial court, and thought Yongzheng handled things very properly.
On March 15th, 61, just three days before Kangxi's birthday, Yongzheng wished Kangxi's birthday and enjoyed peony flowers. While drinking, De Fei (the biological mother of Yongzheng) mentioned, "Li Hong, the son of the May 4th Movement, has been clamoring to see the emperor for a long time and kowtowed to you for your birthday?" Kangxi readily agreed.
So, the young Li Hong and Hongzhou, who were three months younger than himself, met with Emperor Kangxi. When Li Hong and Hongzhou came to Kangxi, Li Hong bowed generously for Kangxi and said, "Grandson Li Hong kowtowed to his grandfather and sincerely invited Wan Fu to Jinan." Li Hong's voice is very loud and Kangxi likes it very much. On the other hand, it is in sharp contrast with the dreary sky. After Kangxi told them to stand up, Li Hong got up and kowtowed again. At this time, Kangxi asked, "Didn't you just salute? Princess Yong said, "The first time I went to see the emperor, this time it was for his birthday. "
Li Hong immediately said, "Grandfather Li Hongzhu, the grandson, has a long life!"
Emperor Kangxi liked Li Hong, who was so sensible, and asked him about his study. Li Hong also told Kangxi about his study. After hearing this, Kangxi decided to take an examination of Li Hong and asked Li Hong what Aisingiorro meant. Li Hong said, "Translation is gold." Kangxi asked again, "What is the most expensive thing in the world?" Li Hong said, "No, it's benevolence, it's precious." After hearing this, Kangxi nodded again and again. Later, Xiao Li Hong recited the Song Dynasty scholar Zhou Dunyi's Love Lotus. Kangxi was more satisfied, so he made a decision and ordered her grandmother, Princess De, to bring her back to the palace and raise her carefully, so that Wang Yinxi taught him to ride horses and shoot arrows, and Yin Lu taught him firearms. This kind of preferential treatment is more than many emperors.
There are even rumors that when Kangxi saw Li Hong, who was 12 years old, all the cups were dropped. This is just a rumor, but the young Li Hong really shocked Kangxi in appearance, character and posture. Kangxi thought that Li Hong's behavior was too much beyond his peers.
Kangxi's deep love
After seeing Li Hong's mother and son, Kangxi said that both mother and son were rich, which was also magnified and widely circulated at that time. Many people think that Li Hong gave Yongzheng a big score in inheriting the throne.
When it comes to Li Hong's being favored by Emperor Kangxi, we have to say that Li Hong's horoscope, according to the cabinet archives of the Palace Museum, has the comment on writing of people who recorded the date of birth and Kangxi's sixty-one years:
The eight characters of Qianlong: Xin Mao (fifty years of Kangxi), Ding You (August), Geng Wu (thirteenth) and Bing Zi (childhood).
Comment: Geng Jin was born in mid-autumn, acting as Yang Bian, and was robbed by heavy troops in Jinzhen. He regards fire as the most beautiful thing, and when it is dry, he casts it as a weapon of flame and autumn gold. This model is unique, creating wealth and prosperity. Taking a bath at noon, at noon, Mao, and you, you like to rush, be beautiful and hurt officials, exorcise evil spirits and turn into a major case.
The ancients believed in the gift of fortune-telling (vernacular Chinese) most. After calculation, Li Hong's eight characters were roughly heavenly stems, Geng Xin, Ding Bing, and autumn and gold were tempered. It was a very talented and powerful life creation, and the term was "strong body"; The ground branch is in the meridian, the bureau is all four positive, and human life wins. He rides the wind as a horse and the Lord is rich.
In other words, Li Hong's horoscope is a rare and excellent horoscope. Kangxi asked people to tell fortune many times, saying that Li Hong's horoscope was excellent, and Kangxi was very happy after hearing it.
Kangxi's intentional cultivation
As mentioned earlier, Kangxi brought Li Hong into the palace and asked everyone to cultivate him carefully. Li Hong was also very sensible, caring and loved by Kangxi.
One evening, after seeing Emperor Kangxi, Xiao Li Hong went straight to Kangxi, and almost fell down because of the rugged road. After seeing Kangxi, he hurried to pay his respects, but Kangxi said why he was in such a hurry and worried if he fell down. Xiao Li Hong said, "I'm anxious to see my grandfather. I won't dare next time." Such an answer really made Kangxi very happy.
Li Hong not only knows how to write a book, but also rides and shoots diligently, and his skills are increasing day by day. So in the autumn hunting, Kangxi shot down a bear and asked Li Hong to shoot the bear, thinking that shooting the bear for the first time would have a good reputation and a good omen. This is a typical key training, but he doesn't want an accident. Li Hong got on his horse and rode over to shoot the bear, but he didn't want the bear to stand up suddenly, but Li Hong was in the bear.
After returning to the tent, Kangxi told you about it and told you that "this son is really blessed" and "life is precious and happiness is with me". At this time, everyone really realized how much a famous and wise monarch cultivated and loved his little grandson. Many people think that Li Hong had the greatest influence on Kangxi's final choice of Chu Jun. (According to Grace Cathedral, the summer resort)
After spending half a year with his grandfather, Kangxi died on 1 1 month 13 that year, and Prince Yong finally succeeded to the throne, which was later Yong Zhengdi.
After Yongzheng ascended the throne, he chose to write down the name of Chu Jun Li Hong, put it in a box and put it on a "fair" plaque. After the death of Yongzheng, he took it out and read it out, and checked it with the secret order, thus confirming Li Hong's legal inheritance right. Finally, Li Hong was promoted to the main hall and became one of the founders of Kanggan Shengshi.
