There are different opinions on the cause of Yongzheng's death. There are probably the following theories:

According to "Records of Emperor Shizong of the Qing Dynasty" and "Chronicle of Zhang Tingyu": "On August 20, the 13th year of Yongzheng's reign, Yinzhen felt that it was contrary to peace, and still attended to the affairs of state as usual. On the 21st, his condition worsened, and he continued to attend to affairs of state as usual. The fourth son of the emperor, Prince Hongli, the fifth son of the emperor, and the prince of Prince Hong continued to attend as usual. On the 22nd day, the condition worsened, and the imperial doctor rescued him. On the 23rd day, the medicine was ineffective, and the three days before and after were regarded as emergencies. Yinzhen died suddenly, and the official document did not contain the reason. As a result, the government and the public have different opinions on the mystery of the cause of Yinzhen's death.

1. It is said that Yinzhen was assassinated by Lu Siniang. Legend has it that Lu Siniang is the daughter of Lu Liuliang, and some say she is the granddaughter of Lu Liuliang. At that time, Lu Liuliang was imprisoned for writing and his body was slaughtered. The Lu family was either executed or sent to the garrison. But Lu Siniang escaped with her mother and a servant, hiding her name among the people. Lu Siniang studied martial arts under her master, studied hard and practiced hard. She was especially good at swordsmanship and had superb skills. Later, Lu Siniang disguised herself and sneaked into the palace. One day, she took the opportunity to chop off Yongzheng's head. In other words, Lu Siniang's master was originally a swordsman from Yongzheng, but he later left and trained his female disciple Lu Siniang. This folklore has been circulating for more than 200 years. By 1981, the underground palace of Yongzheng Tailing Mausoleum was excavated, but it was abandoned before it was opened. However, folk rumors say that Yongzheng's coffin has been opened, and Yongzheng's body has a body but no body. This is intended to prove that Yinzhen's head was chopped off by Lu Siniang. These legends are all fabricated out of thin air and are purely unofficial anecdotes. Scholars believe that the case of Lu Liuliang, the Lu family, men, women, old and young, has been strictly prohibited from escaping. Even the graves of Lu Liuliang and his son were monitored, and it was impossible for Lu's daughter to escape. Therefore, Lu Siniang's claim of assassinating Yongzheng is completely false and cannot be trusted.

2. The second theory is that Yinzhen was hanged to death by a palace maid. Chai E's "Brahma Lu Cong Lu" records: It is said that in the ninth year of Yongzheng (1731), the palace maid, together with the eunuchs Wu Shouyi and Huo Cheng, waited for Yinzhen to fall asleep, hanged him with a rope, and was about to die, but he was rescued. This anecdote originates from the true story of Emperor Jiajing, Emperor Shizong of the Ming Dynasty. In the 21st year of the Jiajing reign of the Ming Dynasty (1542), the palace maid Yang Jinying and others "waited for the emperor to sleep in order to hang the emperor's neck, mistakenly thinking it was a dead knot, and the harvest was endless." The accomplice, Princess Zhang, was frightened and ran to report Queen Fang. The queen arrived and untied the silk fabrics. The emperor was exhausted and ordered the imperial physician Xu Shen to be summoned for first aid. "History of the Ming Dynasty? The Biography of Xu Shen" records: "The gentry quickly prepared a strong medicine. He took the medicine at the beginning of the morning, but suddenly he made a sound. The purplish blood was removed for several liters, and he was able to speak. After a few doses, he recovered." Afterwards, Yang Jinying and others ( zhé) die. Obviously, the temple names of Emperor Yongzheng and Emperor Jiajing are both "Shizong". This story of Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty being hanged by a palace maid is a complete replica of the story of Emperor Shizong Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty being hanged by a palace maid. Therefore, Yongzheng said that the palace maid hanged herself, which was really a grafting and grafting.

3. The third theory is that Yinzhen died of poisoning by taking elixir. In the seventh year of Yongzheng's reign (1729, the year of Wukong Bridge in Tailing), Yinzhen suffered from a serious illness. The minister said, "The Emperor occasionally has a slight pimple on his chin." It was unclear what the disease was. Yinzhen once issued an edict to his close ministers, asking them to recommend good doctors and Taoist priests: "You can pay attention to visit, there are good doctors in medicine and surgery, people who have profound knowledge of life cultivation, or Taoist priests, or Confucian scholars or lay people who preach. . . . I heard about it and sent it to the capital with preferential treatment. It will be of use to me." Later, Li Weimi recommended Taoist Jia Shifang to go to Beijing to treat Yinzhen. Later, Daoist Jia was executed. Yinzhen was interested in Taoist priests and elixirs, and specially rebuilt the Taoist temple for Ziyang Taoist priests. Yinzhen also invited Taoist priests Zhang Taixu, Wang Dingqian, etc. to the Old Summer Palace to refine elixirs, hoping to swallow the miraculous elixir and achieve immortality.

4. The fourth theory is that Yinzhen died of a stroke. This important conclusion needs historical data to prove.

5. Five theories indicate that Cao Xueqin and Zhu Xiangyu conspired to poison Yinzhen. It is said that Cao Xueqin, the author of "A Dream of Red Mansions", had a lover named Zhu Xiangyu, who was the incarnation of Lin Daiyu. Zhu Xiangyu was later occupied by Yongzheng and became the queen. Cao Xueqin missed her lover, so she found an errand to sneak into the palace, and conspired with Zhu Xiangyu to poison Yongzheng to death with elixirs. This is a made-up story and pure nonsense.

I personally prefer the fourth statement.

Yongzheng, also known as the Yuanming layman, studied under Jialing Xingyin and Zhangjia Hutuketu. After practicing, he was forced to break out in white sweat. His views and realizations were recognized by Zhangjia Hutuketu. Extraordinary, he was a great master of Zen Buddhism. He advocated the Linji sect, but whether it reached the Yuan Ming Dynasty remains to be discussed. The handed down works "Yu Xuan Yu Lu" and "Dayijue Mi Lu" may be regarded as the successor of Miyun Yuanwu! (By the way, the name of "Chairman Mao's Quotations" is also based on Zen Buddhism. The style of quotations is Zen style, but it should be based on the style of The Analects of Confucius.)

Political career, abbreviated.

Analysis:

Yongzheng enjoyed staying up all night reviewing memorials, and he did not seem tired. This is similar to Emperor Wu of Liang, who had a broad mind and had the ability to practice, so how could he die of exhaustion easily? Woolen cloth?

The golden elixir theory is even more absurd. With the view of a great master, how could Yongzheng be so stupid as to take the external elixir without knowing the season? Genius monster ----- role model Zulong Comrade Yingzheng, Comrade Taizong Shimin)

Stroke---roughly analogous to the founder of Quanzhen Sect, Zhenren Wang Chongyang, who had done something two years before his death A poem: Harmful wind harms old diseases, and the lifespan is no more than fifty-eight. Later, I really said goodbye to Lao Qiu and the others at the age of 58!

The rest are the words of the novelist and not enough evidence

Zhuao1997’s general comment: Why can’t it be a normal death?

Signature: zhuao1997

The trouble with people is that they are good teachers. Killing someone's wisdom life is worse than cutting off someone's head/

If you can comply with your wishes and even enlighten your Taoist mind, you will actually be blessed by the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas/

All your merits will be exhausted Dedicate it to all sentient beings. If there are any mistakes, I hope you will correct me.

1 What to do in life: establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a destiny for life; carry on the unique knowledge for the past saints, and create peace for all generations

2 birth: Originally pure and pure, why did the world arise:

The nature of the sea is clear, round and clear, the nature of the sea is clear, the nature of the ocean is clear, the nature of the original light is clear, and the nature of the enlightenment is dead

Delirium There is a void, and the world is established based on the void. The world is formed into a land, and the consciousness is all sentient beings

The void is born in the great awakening, like the sea, and there are leaks and particles of dust. The kingdoms are all born based on the void

The void is destroyed. The original statelessness returns to the three existences - Manjusri

3 Death: A. The fruit of karma matures and goes directly to the Pure Land or hell. B. The rest, first pass through the intermediate body (it is said to be the soul) which is about the longest

49 days before reincarnation or transformation. C. Those who have gone to the Pure Land to achieve academic success will still come back to save sentient beings; those who have gone to hell will have flashes of inspiration and will

come back to practice practice again.

4 What is a dream - Solitary Shadow Consciousness - The Opposite of the Sixth Consciousness

5 Why Can’t Scholars Have Remarkable Achievements - Playing with Buddhism and using Buddhism for entertainment .

6 Bodhisattva: sentient beings with great minds, ancient translation; later translated by Xuanzang as enlightened sentient beings. Ordinary people with big hearts are Bodhisattvas.

To be aware of emotions: To be emotional means to have troubles; to be enlightened is to be aligned in the right direction. When sailing, the direction is correct. If you don't see the other shore for a while, you will reach the other shore.

7 Original Vow: I will make this vow from generation to generation. It is true nature. If you don't see the person's nature, you can establish the desire from the consciousness. The original vow of Dharmakaya Bodhisattva is not to be affected by external circumstances. The evil master preaches the Dharma like the sand of the Ganges River, but he remains motionless. 148 | Comments (17) Ask for help from Zhiyougui Aigui | Level 4 adoption rate 21 Areas of expertise: Clothing/Jewelry Food/Cooking Literature Historical topics Geography The questioner’s evaluation of the answer: Very detailed, thank you very much

A few days before Yongzheng's death, he was still working as usual, which shows that he was in good health. It was not until the evening of August 22nd that Yongzheng suddenly fell seriously ill, and he hastily announced that he would pass the throne to the fourth son of the emperor, Hongli. The next day, Yongzheng died in the Old Summer Palace at the age of 58. So, how did Yongzheng die? With the discovery of Qing palace files, more and more people believe that Yongzheng died of poisoning by taking elixirs.

It turned out that Taoist Jia had great ambitions. He used "massage", "secret spells" and other techniques to gradually control the emperor's health, making Yongzheng comfortable and comfortable, and making Yongzheng uncomfortable and uncomfortable. As the emperor, how could Yongzheng be willing to be manipulated by others? Therefore, Yongzheng immediately ordered that Taoist Jia be beheaded on the charge of using "witchcraft" in front of the emperor. After the incident, although Yongzheng chopped off Taoist Jia's head, he tried his best to excuse Li Wei, saying that he did not know the details of Mr. Jia when he recommended him, and he only reported what he saw and heard. He was not at fault. Those officials who were preparing to recommend Taoist priests took a "reassurance pill." After Jia Shifang's death, Yongzheng did not lose trust in the Taoist priests. According to the records of the Qing Palace, in addition to the Qin'an Hall, which is dedicated to Taoist activities, Yongzheng also asked Taoist priests to place Taoist talisman tablets in the Hall of Supreme Harmony and the Palace of Qianqing, and to set up a fighting altar in his dormitory, the Yangxin Hall. , asking the gods to bless him with immortality. In addition, Yongzheng also built several houses in the Imperial Garden specifically for Taoist priest Lou Jinyuan and others to live in, so that they could be invited to pray and practice at any time. This was really an "unprecedented" move. On the 27th of the first month of the ninth year of Yongzheng (1731), Yongzheng issued another edict to Haiwang, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs: "I see that Qianqiu Pavilion in the back garden is not suitable for setting up a fighting altar, so I will use the square pavilion on the back floor to set up a fighting altar. OK... There is an open space to the east of the Yucui Pavilion. Measure its terrain and build a few smaller rooms for the judges to live in." These materials prove that Yongzheng not only searched for Taoist magicians on a large scale across the country, but also searched for them on a large scale. He had a heated fight with the Taoist priests in the palace. Although these Taoist priests have different origins, they are all "people who practice health preservation" and their purpose is to cultivate "elixir" for Yongzheng so that he can "live forever". Now, we can roughly draw a conclusion: Yongzheng died of elixir poisoning. Therefore, as soon as his son Qianlong ascended the throne, he ordered the Taoist priest Zhang Taixu and others to be driven out of the Forbidden City, and warned them not to talk nonsense after leaving the palace!
