Speaking of scolding people, the fact that Hongli scolded his eldest son and third son to death is definitely on the list.

Yinxiang shook his head and sighed, "Although this matter is also due to the bad mentality of Yonghuang and Yongzhang, but in the final analysis, it is still Hongli who is a bit cruel."

Yonghuang was only 20 years old at that time, and Yongzhang was only 13 years old. They were scolded by Hongli so much that they were bedridden. Eventually, one died at the age of 23 and the other died at the age of 26.

This Hongli, although his words are not as vicious as Han Ama, his heart is much more cruel than Han Ama.

Yinzhen lowered his eyes slightly, and was speechless when he thought of his two grandsons.

"So how did Hongli scold them? Was it as harsh as the Khan Ama scolded the second brother and the eighth brother?"

Yinzhen only lived until the thirteenth year of Yongzheng's reign. As soon as his fourth brother passed away, his soul disappeared, so he had no idea what happened during the Qianlong period.

When he heard Yinxiang mention those things, he couldn't help but become curious.

He actually scolded his two sons to death. Was it because Hongli was vicious or were his two nephews and grandsons mentally weak?

Yinzhen was really curious, so he grabbed Yinxiang and asked him directly.

Yinxiang didn't want to keep him in suspense, thinking that since the conversation had already started, he might as well talk more.

Then he told what happened in the 13th year of Qianlong's reign, "When Fu Cha died, Yonghuang and Yongzhang did not behave well in the mourning hall, and they did not look sad enough."

"Hongli, who was grieving over the loss of his wife, saw this and vented his anger on someone, so he scolded the two men for being unbecoming and unfilial, and also deprived them of their right to inherit the throne."

"In this way, the two became depressed and sick all day long, and died early."

Yinxiang was teasing the young eagle as he spoke, and from time to time he would look up to notice the expression of his fourth brother. After all, what he was talking about at the moment were matters concerning his fourth brother's son and grandson, and he always had to take his fourth brother's mood into consideration.

There was nothing special about Yinzhen. Although he did not wander the world as a ghost like his Thirteenth Brother and Khan Ama, he was reincarnated into the future and had already learned about all the affairs of the Qing Dynasty from history books.

If I had any feelings, I would have expressed them long ago. When I hear those things now, I can only sigh a little.

As for Yinzhen, the more he listened, the more strange this matter seemed to him. He could not help but move his clever little brain and began to fall into deep thought, "What happened in the thirteenth year of Qianlong's reign..."

He rolled his eyes and looked at his fourth brother, saying with certainty: "Let's not talk about whether the two Yong brothers are strong or not, I think Hongli definitely did this on purpose!"

He was extremely confident in his guess and looked at Yinzhen with bright eyes, hoping to get his approval.

Yinzhen raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect Yin'er to think this way. He looked at Yinxiang and smiled, "Then tell me, why did he do it on purpose?"

After Yinzhen spoke, Yinluo began to speak his own guess very complacently, "Fourth brother, Thirteenth brother, look, what happened in the past thirteen years?"

In the thirteenth year of Yongzheng's reign, Emperor Yongzheng passed away.

This is Hongli’s Khan Ama.

In the 13th year of Qianlong's reign, his first wife passed away.

If these two things were put on the stage for discussion, what would Hongli, as the king of a country, think?

"He must be panicking! He ascended the throne at the age of 25. Thirteen years have passed, and he is already nearly forty years old. His Khan father passed away in the thirteenth year of Yongzheng's reign, and his first wife passed away in the thirteenth year of Qianlong's reign. What about him?"

"I was already panicking and afraid, and then I saw that my eldest son was already 20 years old. Even if he died at that time, with my eldest son, there would be a ready-made heir, and the court would not panic."

"Do you think Hongli must be even more panicked and fearful?"

Yinzhen said it with certainty. He felt that his guess was absolutely correct. What he said about it being inappropriate in front of his stepmother's mourning hall was just an excuse.

With just one sentence, he deposed his two eldest sons, just like their old Khan father was afraid of his second brother, the Crown Prince, who was young and strong at the time. The father deposed his sons with his own hands and eliminated a threat to his imperial power.

Yinzhen sighed more and more as he spoke, "Alas, this is what emperors have in common..."

“They are all bad roots!”

He snorted coldly, feeling very dissatisfied.

Yinzhen and Yinxiang listened to his analysis quietly, and also sighed a little.

I have to say, what Ninth Brother/Ninth Brother said is indeed right.

What Hongli did at that time was indeed caused by these things.

Fear was the most acute emotion in Hongli's heart at that time.

But no one expected that the emperor who was afraid of dying early in the 13th year of Qianlong's reign would eventually become the longest-lived emperor in the entire Chinese history.

Eighty-nine years old. Which emperor doesn’t want to live such a long life?

Yinzhen sighed softly, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was not as good as the elders and not as good as the younger ones.

He did not live as long as the Khan's father, nor as long as his son. Even the time he spent in power was not even a fraction of the time the Khan's father and his son combined.

The two of them were in power for 61 years, one for 60 years, a total of 121 years, and he ...

It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others! It's not worth it to be frustrating to death!

Yinzhen was so angry that he didn't want to talk much.

And Yinzhen was still waiting to be praised by his fourth brother. He stared at Yinzhen with anticipation, and was almost about to say "I want to be praised".

However, Yinzhen did not praise him, but Yinxiang did. He put his hand on Yinlu's shoulder and said with a smile: "Ninth brother, you are still very smart. It's just as you think. You are awesome!"

That's what praise is all about. Sometimes it's better not to praise.

Yin'er's phoenix eyes widened into dead fish eyes, and he looked at Yinxiang dimly, "Thirteenth brother, is this what you call praising me? You are clearly saying that I am usually stupid!"

What do you mean he still has brains?

He has a very useful brain!

Yinxiang shrugged and spread his hands innocently, "Ninth Brother, you know I'm not very good at praising people. This is already my limit."

Don't be too critical of him.

Yinxiang's eyes conveyed such a message, and Yinzhen just wanted to give him a slap in the face for his insubordination, "Go to hell, why didn't you say this when you praised Fourth Brother?"

In response, Yinxiang argued, "Where did I praise Fourth Brother?"

"I'm obviously telling the truth!"

Is what I said to my fourth brother called praise? No!

" ... ... "Yinzhen was silent for a while, and finally found that he could not refute.

He was really stupid to argue with his Thirteenth Brother about his Fourth Brother. How could he win the argument?

"Okay, you win, I don't want to argue with you anymore."

Yinzhen, who had decided to admit defeat, moved to another place and started a discussion with Yinzhen: "Fourth brother, what should we do with this young eagle? Should we take it away with us?"

Are you going on tour with them?

This may be a very difficult thing for such a young bird.
