In 1726, Nian Qianyao felt deeply worried about the day and urgently summoned a talent in the house. As soon as they met, Nian Qianyao knelt on one knee and said in a hurried tone: "I will give you my favorite concubine, remember to treat her well." Xiucai wiped his sweat and hesitated. Nian Qianyao advised: "She is pregnant, and the child's surname is born." Xiucai had a premonition that the situation was serious, and asked in a trembling voice: "You mean that the emperor wants..."Before he finished speaking, he made a gesture to wipe his neck. Nian Qianyao nodded and sighed: "I can't say for sure about the current situation." ”
Xiucai pondered the friendship between Nian Qianyao and Yongzheng, which can be traced back to the Kangxi Dynasty. In the forty-eighth year of Kangxi, Nian Qianyao was promoted from Guangdong to the governor of Sichuan, which shows Yongzheng's cultivation and recommendation. Nian Qianyao even dedicated his sister to Yongzheng, showing his loyalty. Yongzheng's appreciation for him can be seen, and he even gave him four dragon mink fur coats, mink hats, and python robes, bluntly saying that Nian Qianyao is not only a hero, but also a benefactor.
After Yongzheng ascended the throne, Nian Qianyao suppressed the rebellion of Luobzang Danjin and made great achievements, and was awarded the title of first-class duke, enjoying the reputation of "King of Northwest". However, Nian Qianyao's arrogant behavior in the court, such as ignoring the etiquette of princes and ministers on the way to Beijing, was unpleasant. Yongzheng endured for a long time, but Nian Qianyao gradually crossed the line and spoke wildly, which made Yongzheng angry. Yongzheng had no choice but to arrange for someone to be ** Nian Qianyao, demoted him to Hangzhou, and lost his real power.
Nian Qianyao Fang sensed the crisis and began to curry favor with Yongzheng, playing the card of the feelings of the monarch and the minister when he seized the throne that year. However, his arrogant behavior has angered Yongzheng. Nian Qianyao felt hopeless and decided to keep his bloodline and entrust his pregnant concubine to Xiucai. This move made Nian Qianyao fall into endless regrets, and the whereabouts of the concubine's children are now also disagreed.
Nian Qianyao fought all his life, but in the end it ended with such a tragic ending. "The Book of Rites" said that "you can't indulge in your desires, you can't be satisfied", Nian Qianyao lost power because of his high merits, and his lack of caution was embarrassing.
