[팩 보고드림] 강희제는 어떻게 정치9단 신하들 사이에서 살아남을 수 있었을까? feat 수양대군 단종 조조 태종 세종대왕

On May 4, 1654 (the 11th year of Shunzhi's reign), the Gyeongin Palace, east of the Forbidden City in Beijing, was more hectic and tense than usual. This was because Emperor Shunzhi's concubine, Lady Jiang (Empress Xiaogangzhang), was in labor. Amidst the busy maids and royal physicians, Lady Jiang finally gave birth to a son. "Congratulations, your son has been born!" The Shunzhi Emperor was overjoyed. The prince was named Xuanye. Xuanye's position within the imperial family was both special and delicate. As the third son of Emperor Shunzhi and his concubine Lady Jiang, Lady Dong, his position was ambiguous. However, his mother, Lady Dong, was not simply a concubine; she came from a family of founding fathers, possessing a distinguished and distinguished background. Still, the possibility of becoming the crown prince remained slim, making the situation even more uncertain. Xuanye displayed extraordinary talent from an early age. He could memorize books instantly and possessed an uncanny ability to interpret their meaning. When his teacher posed a question, he answered without hesitation, and sometimes even asked deeper questions, leaving his teacher flustered. He was incredibly diligent. He would wake up at 4 a.m. to greet the royal elders and study at Munyeon Pavilion from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. That must have been a bit of a hassle for the elders to wake up at 4 a.m. as well... It must have been quite a hassle... He was also skilled in martial arts. He was particularly skilled with archery, so much so that he could hit a rabbit while riding a horse. Hyeonyeop's abilities were soon known both inside and outside the court, and he was widely praised. Naturally, he was the pride of Emperor Shunzhi. But what good was being exceptionally talented? Born from a concubine, he wasn't destined to become the crown prince... If a prince, not destined to become the crown prince, were too talented, it would be a problem. He would become a threat to the lineage. Incompetence was better. That's why many princes throughout history deliberately acted foolishly or acted foolishly. A round peg gets beaten in a round hole... This is the proverb most important for those who cannot become emperor to keep in mind. So, looking at King Sejong, who excelled in studies and was extremely capable, King Taejong, Yi Bang-won, said, "Well... isn't there anything you want to do? Take up a hobby... I'll support anything you do. But... don't even talk about becoming king!" Emperor Shunzhi had eight sons and six daughters from his wives, and he adopted three more. Will Xianyeop ever be next in line? That would be a vain hope. Then one day... (1660, the 17th year of Shunzhi's reign), smallpox broke out in the Forbidden City. Smallpox was fatal even in the imperial court, and with no effective treatment available at the time, many members of the imperial family fell victim to the disease.
