First, Lao Ba's own charm
Lao Ba was born in the royal family and was deeply influenced by the royal education and life. His personality is invisible, soft outside and rigid inside. He is introverted, does not like publicity, and does not like making trouble. Moreover, he is a gentle person, likes reading and painting, and his personal conversation is very cultivated. This represents the typical image of Confucian intellectuals in that era. Moreover, Lao Ba has a strong ability to handle affairs, and all kinds of government affairs are very simple for him and handled in an orderly way. The most important thing is that he attaches great importance to maintaining the relationship between the prince and officials and celebrities, and has a high prestige in everyone's hearts.
Second, the battle for the throne.
Anyone who has seen this TV series will know that the princes in the drama are all fighting for the throne, slandering and framing each other, in order to successfully seize the power of the throne, and Lao Ba has coveted the throne for a long time and will certainly get it. Among the forces in the Eight Ye Party, he has the support of the Nine Ye, the Ten Ye and the Fourteen Ye. There are more civil servants and military commanders. It can be said that civilian military commanders are all over the court, which is why Kangxi was afraid of him. At that time, when the eight lords were elected as princes, almost all senior officials stood on the side of the eight lords except Zhang. You can imagine how powerful Lao Ba was at that time.
Third, the strength comparison between the two
It can be said that Yongzheng's influence is far less than that of Lao Ba. At that time, there were only thirteen masters in Yongzheng, including Li Jue, Tian Wenjing, Nian Gengyao and Zhang, and there were no hairs on the old eight. If it weren't for Mr. Wu's suggestion at that time, Yongzheng would hardly inherit the throne, and the throne must be Lao Ba.
