Why did Yongzheng copy the Cao Yin family in Qing Dynasty? How old was Cao Xueqin then?

During the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty, Cao Yin's family was copied because of its huge deficit. At that time, Cao Xueqin was thirteen.

After Yongzheng came to power, he issued imperial edicts one after another and began to conduct a nationwide inventory of money and grain to make up for the deficit. He repeatedly said: I can't be as tolerant as my father. Any official who is short of money and food will be dismissed as soon as he is exposed.

In the first year of Yongzheng alone, dozens of officials at all levels were dismissed and property seized. Suzhou Zhinv, who is related to the Cao family, suffered from * * * and was also sentenced to a deficit and deprived of property.

But at first Yongzheng did not punish Cao Jia and Xu Li together, but allowed him to repay the deficit within three years. Cao Fu's own deficit has not been filled, but it has increased the deficit left by Cao Yin, so we must seek help from many aspects.

In order to prevent someone from threatening and blackmailing Cao Fu, Yongzheng specially gave Cao Fu instructions: Running around and making friends with others can only drag yourself down, waste energy and buy trouble.

Make up your mind, behave yourself and don't mess around. Otherwise, my reputation will be damaged and I will be severely punished. Prince Yi can't save it. This special message from Yong Zhengdi shows that he is still kind to Cao Fu.

1728, the heir of was finally dismissed for economic deficit, harassing a post station, transferring property and other charges, while Cao Xueqin was born in 17 15, so Cao Xueqin was only thirteen years old when the Cao family was robbed.
