Hongshi's ability
There were few records about Hongshi's ability in official history. It was only mentioned that he was "young and indulgent, and did not act carefully." However, from his status and other aspects, it could be speculated. Hongshi was the only adult prince when Yongzheng ascended the throne. His biological mother, Consort Li of Qi, was once favored by Yongzheng. In terms of seniority, he was the actual eldest son of the emperor and had the opportunity to fight for the throne. This showed that he had a certain amount of capital in terms of background. However, as he grew up, he did not show the political wisdom or management ability that matched the throne. For example, he failed to absorb the complete concept from Wu Sidao's teachings. He only listened to half of it and missed the essence because he had to pee, which led to his early defeat in the competition for the throne with Hongli. In order to compete with Hongli, he took the risk of selling the test papers to attract talents. This behavior not only violated the rules, but also showed his lack of caution and ability to compete properly. His actions caused him to be hated by Yongzheng, and he was eventually adopted by his political enemies, removed from his clan, and completely lost the qualification to compete for the throne.

Hongshi died
Hong Shi died on September 20, 1727, at the age of 24. Hongshi was adopted by Emperor Yongzheng before his death. Later, he was removed from the clan because of his indulgence and indiscretion, and was reduced from the eldest son of the emperor to a commoner. This huge difference caused Hongshi to fall into fear and despair, and eventually died of anger. However, there were also folk legends that Hongshi was ordered to die by Yongzheng, but this was not the case in official history.

Is Hongshi Yongzheng's biological son?
Hongshi was the biological son of Emperor Yongzheng. In historical records, Hongshi was the third son of Emperor Yongzheng, the half-brother of Emperor Qianlong, and his mother was Concubine Li of Qi. In some novels set in the Qing Dynasty, the relationship between the characters may also be set based on this historical fact, but different novels may have different creations and plots for the character Hongshi. For example, there may be time-travel, rebirth, and other plots that involve the father-son relationship between Hongshi and Yongzheng. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Was Hongshi killed by Yongzheng?
Hongshi died shortly after his clan name was removed. There is no clear record of whether he was killed by Yongzheng. Some people inferred that he was executed by Yongzheng according to the statement that he was executed on the sixth day of the eighth month of the fifth year of Yongzheng, due to his juvenile indulgence and indiscretion, and died at the age of twenty-four. However, this statement lacked conclusive evidence. Judging from Qianlong's attitude after he ascended the throne, he quickly issued an edict to re-enter Hongshi's genealogy in consideration of his brotherhood. If there had been a major incident such as Hongshi murdering Hongli or Hongshi being executed by Yongzheng, Qianlong would not have done so. In addition, Prince Zhuang Yunlu and other memorials indicated that Hongshi was cut off from the clan and removed from the yellow belt because he was implicated by Yunlu. Therefore, it was not certain that Hongshi was killed by Yongzheng. While waiting for the TV series, you can also click on the link below to read the classic original work of "Dafeng Nightwatchman"!
The True End of Yongzheng's Son, Hongshi
There are two versions of Hongshi's fate in official history. One theory was that he angered Yongzheng and was expelled from the royal family, and later died of depression; the other theory was that he did things wantonly and offended his father, Yongzheng, and was ordered to die by Yongzheng. It was only after Qianlong succeeded to the throne that he was restored to the royal family. When Hongshi was young, he was unrestrained and sloppy, so he was not liked by Yongzheng. In the fifth year of Yongzheng, Hongshi angered Yongzheng by pleading for his uncles in front of Yongzheng. He was accused of being careless, stripped of his yellow belt, driven out of the Forbidden City, and adopted by the Eighth Master, who was locked up in the Imperial Clan Court. After that, his status plummeted, and he became depressed and died in August of the same year.

Selling exam questions in Hongshi
Did Yongzheng kill Hongshi? Is it true?
According to the official history, Hongshi was stripped of his clan status because of his "indulgence and indiscretion" and died soon after. Yongzheng therefore bore the notoriety of "killing his son", but there was no conclusive evidence that Yongzheng directly killed Hongshi. Hongshi was not loved by Yongzheng in his early years, and Yongzheng was adopted by Yunzhi in the fourth year of Yongzheng. In the fifth year of Yongzheng, Yongzheng issued an edict to punish him, and then Hongshi died. Judging from the development of the incident, Hongshi had experienced a series of major blows such as being adopted and being stripped of his family name. These were enough to put him in a desperate situation and possibly die of fear. In the context of the power struggle and political struggle within the royal family of the feudal dynasty, Hongshi's fate was full of tragedy.

Why did Hongshi sell the exam questions?
Please recommend a novel with the male protagonist Hongshi or Hongzhou.
I recommend "The Promise of the Qing Palace". It's an ancient romance novel about a fight in the palace. The male protagonist is Emperor Yongzheng, but there's also the female protagonist Yao Jiaxin who's pregnant. The story mainly revolved around Yao Jiaxin's life in the harem. She did not have a red carpet and an arrogant concubine, but she could enjoy a high salary of 30 taels a year. I hope you like my recommendation. Muah ~
