Born to Emperor Jingmin, the thirteenth brother, Huang Hongfa, was gifted since childhood. Emperor Kangxi liked him better. In the early and middle period of Kangxi, Kangxi attached great importance to Lao Thirteen. Almost every time I make a southern tour, I take thirteen with me. Other princes don't have this treatment. However, in Kangxi's later years, when several princes competed for the male, the old thirteen seemed to disappear from history.
Shi San didn't compete for the throne, but because of his good relationship with Lao Si, he more or less participated in some plans of Lao Si, because Shi San knew that he was no match for Lao Ba and his personality was not suitable for the throne. Thirteen is cautious by nature, which is why it can die well. Except him, other disciples died a fair death, mainly because he was no threat to Yongzheng.
After Yong Zhengdi ascended the throne, other buddies changed "Yin" to "Cloud" one after another, except the 13th buddy. This is the only example among courtiers in the Qing Dynasty who did not shy away from the emperor.
At the beginning, after Yong Zhengdi succeeded to the throne, he executed all his other brothers who were vying for the throne, including his own brother XIV. During the Yongzheng period, all military posts were managed by the old system of 13- 1 1, and later they were named as princes and masters, prime ministers and ministers of state to handle major government affairs. In his later years, after his brother died, Yong Zhengdi was heartbroken and cried for days and nights.
