How did Emperor Yongzheng deal with it?
On December 11th in the sixty-first year of Kangxi (1722), Emperor Yongzheng succeeded to the throne less than a month ago, and he named Hongxi (1694-1742), the son of Emperor Kangxi's abolished prince Yunfeng, the king of Lijun.In May of the first year of Yongzheng (1723), Emperor Yongzheng ordered Hongxi, Wang Lijun, to move to Zhenggezhuang Palace.He said: "Zhengjiazhuang built a house and stationed soldiers. I wanted the emperor to test the holy will, or wanted the second elder brother to live there, but I didn't make a decree, so I didn't dare to speculate. Now that Hongxi has been crowned king, let Yi lead his children. It is quite a compromise." (Volume 7 of "Records of Emperor Shizong of the Qing Dynasty") Emperor Yongzheng figured out the intention of his father's arrangement when he was alive, and wanted to move Yunfeng to live in Zhenggezhuang, but he did not follow the emperor's father's plan. Instead, he left Yunfeng alone in the palace, and moved Yunfeng's second son, Lijun Wang Hongxi and Yunfeng's family to Zhenggezhuang Prince's Mansion.There are detailed records in the archives about the move of Lijun Wang's family.

Except for listening to the announcement and rushing to the capital to go to the court when he ascends the hall, he goes to the court once a month and shoots arrows once a month. free.On the first day of the first lunar month, when the halls saluted, entered the table, and offered sacrifices to various altars and temples, Li Wang Hongxi came and allocated a house for the king to stay.

Scale: According to calculations in the literature, there are 1,323 residences for garrison officers and soldiers in total, including Zhengjiazhuang’s palace, palace, and officers’ and soldiers’ buildings.There are 345 errands in the palace.

On September 20, the first year of Yongzheng (October 18, 1723), the family of Wang Hongxi of Lijun moved to Zhenggezhuang Palace.In May of the eighth year of Yongzheng (1730), Hong Xi was granted the title of Prince Li. "Manuscripts of Qing History Six Kings" wrote "Six years, Hong Xi entered the title of prince", which is wrong; it should be the eighth year of Yongzheng.Because "Registration of Daily Life in Yongzheng Dynasty", "Records of Emperor Shizong of Qing Dynasty", "Biao of Enfeng Clan Princes" and "Tongzhi of Eight Banners" all also record that on May 28th of the eighth year of Yongzheng, Hongxi was proclaimed as prince. Therefore, the above-mentioned errors in the "Drafts of Qing History" can be proved.From then on, the Lijun Prince's Mansion in Zhenggezhuang became the Prince Li's Mansion. "Drafts of Qing History Prince's Table" records in Yu Hongxi: "In the first year of Yongzheng, he was granted the title of Prince of Li. In the sixth year, he became the Prince of Li. In the fourth year of Qianlong, he was deposed by fate." In the above three sentences, there are two mistakes and one omission: The title of Prince of Lijun was in Yiwei on November 14th in the sixty-first year of Kangxi; the prince of Jinli was in Yiwei on May 28th in the eighth year of Yongzheng; ".
In December of the second year of Yongzheng (1724), after the abolished prince Yunfeng died of illness in Xian'an Palace, he stayed in Zhenggezhuangli Wangfu.At the time of the funeral, each wing will send one member of the inner guard, two ministers of scattered ranks, and 50 guards to send the funeral to Zhenggezhuang.He also granted Yunfeng the title of Prince Heshuoli, and his posthumous posthumous title was Mi.Emperor Yongzheng wanted to go to Zhenggezhuang to pay homage in person. After being persuaded by his ministers repeatedly, he cried and mourned his second elder brother Yunfeng at the Wulong Pavilion in Xiyuan (in today's Beihai Park).Yunfeng was later buried in the King's Garden Bed (Wang Tomb) in Huanghua Mountain, Jixian County, ending his 51-year life of ups and downs.But the battle for the throne because of him is still going on.
