Emperor Kangxi (4) Caused Chaos in Xiao Qiang
About This Novel
This book focuses on Kangxi's selection of the crown prince and the rivalry between the princes to become the crown prince. There were many bad policies in Kangxi's later years. For example, officials were corrupt and perverted the law, and unjust cases occurred one after another; the royal family and old honorees borrowed money from the treasury, resulting in a national treasury deficit; land taxes were uneven and land was highly concentrated. Kangxi sent people to clean up and rectify many times, but because the crown prince was cowardly and incompetent, greedy and lustful, not familiar with government affairs, and busy with party disputes, he had to give up halfway. Kangxi was very dissatisfied with this and had to depose him, then establish him again, establish him again, and then depose him. The princes took the opportunity to cause chaos, formed cliques, and competed to become the crown prince, which caused a feud among the brothers. Kangxi later simply "released the deer in the Central Plains" and allowed them to compete with each other.
