What kind of person is a gentleman?

Born in the fifteenth year of Qianlong (1750). Poor and studious, handsome, proficient in Manchu, Han, Mongolian and Tibetan. In thirty-seven years, he was awarded the third-class bodyguard, and in forty years, he was promoted to the imperial bodyguard and awarded the deputy commander of Zhenglanqi. He joined the military aircraft in March 194 1. The history book says, "If Emperor Gaozong coughs and spits, Little Shenyang will drown." He has been in power for more than 20 years and has been promoted 47 times. The ruling and opposition parties are in power, and hundreds of officials compete for flattery. Openly asking for bribes and accepting bribes, but also rejecting dissidents, leading to official management corruption and officialdom villain flooding. In the first month of the fourth year of Jiaqing (1799), Emperor Tai Shang died. Soon, on the 13th day of the first month, Emperor Jiaqing announced the 20 major crimes of Xiao Shenyang and ordered him to confiscate his property and embezzle 820 million silver. At that time, the annual tax revenue of the Qing court was only 70 million Liang, equivalent to the income of the Qing government 15 to 20 years. Stuff money on his roof. Historically, it is said that "small Shenyang fell and Jiaqing was full". The court deliberated this year and sentenced Xiao Shenyang to commit suicide in prison. His son married Princess Gulen and Xiao, the tenth daughter of Qianlong, to avoid sitting together.

Born in a family of military attache who is not rich, he and his younger brother Lin received a good education since childhood, and received systematic Confucian classics and Manchu-Chinese-Mongolian education. Little Shenyang is talented, studious and outstanding, and is highly valued by teachers such as Wu Shenglan. In the thirty-fourth year of Qianlong, 20-year-old Xiao Shenyang inherited the title of third-class captain handed down by his ancestors. In the second year, I participated in the Shuntianfu Imperial Examination after having obtained the provincial examination, but failed to pass the examination. Little Shenyang, who was not famous, later became the reading officer of palace examination, the highest level exam in the imperial examination, and served as the president of many ancient books such as Sikuquanshu. In November of the thirty-seventh year of Qianlong, 23-year-old He Kun was appointed as a third-class bodyguard, equivalent to the fifth class. When the emperor went on patrol, he was accompanied by guards and obeyed the emperor's orders at any time. This errand provided opportunities for Xiao Shenyang to approach Qianlong frequently, which was an important turning point in Xiao Shenyang's life. In a word, the young little Shenyang is handsome and talented, which may have attracted the attention and attention of Qianlong by an accidental opportunity. Since then, his fortune has changed and his career has flourished.

In October of the 40th year of Qianlong, 26-year-old Shenyang was promoted to the bodyguard of Ganqingmen, and in November he was promoted to the imperial bodyguard, and was awarded as the deputy commander-in-chief of Zhenglanqi. In the first month of forty-one, Assistant Minister Zuo of the Ministry of Accounts was granted, Minister of Military Affairs in March and Minister of the Interior in April. In just half a year, Xiao Shenyang went all the way from an ordinary bodyguard to the highest level of power in the Qing Dynasty and became the confidant of Emperor Qianlong. Since then, Xiao Shenyang has been promoted to rank and knighthood every year, and he is in charge of many jobs and important positions.

According to the Biography of Little Shenyang, in the first month of the 45th year of Qianlong, the 365,438+0-year-old little Shenyang accepted the heavy responsibility and went to Yunnan with assistant minister of punishments Ka Ning 'a to investigate the corruption case of Li Shiyao. As soon as Xiao Shenyang arrived in Yunnan, he detained Li Shiyao's housekeeper and obtained evidence, forcing the shrewd Li Shiyao to bow his head and plead guilty. It only took more than two months before and after, and Xiao Shenyang accepted this task and made a decree to treat Li Shiyao.

Later, Xiao Shenyang reported to the emperor that Yunnan's administration was chaotic and many counties had deficits, which needed to be thoroughly cleaned up and rectified. This report was immediately praised by Qianlong.

Xiao Shenyang's case in Yunnan was well done, which really showed his talent and ability to handle affairs, so Xiao Shenyang was promoted to be the minister of household affairs on his way back to Beijing. In May of that year, after Xiao Shenyang returned to Beijing, he further expressed to the emperor specific opinions on rectifying Yunnan's salt affairs, money law and border defense affairs, which was affirmed by Qianlong. A month later, Qianlong named his six-year-old son, and soon betrothed his favorite little daughter, Princess Xiao, and got married in 54 years. This marriage not only brought economic benefits to small Shenyang, but also brought immeasurable benefits to small Shenyang politically. From then on, the relationship between Xiao Shenyang and Emperor Qianlong was not only a servant, but also a relationship between children and in-laws.

In the forty-six years of Qianlong, the 43-year-old Su Uprising in Gansu Province advanced to Lanzhou. Small Shenyang was ordered to go with A Gui, a college student, to find warlords to suppress it. The front general was on the verge of victory, but little Shenyang made a fool of himself and turned victory into failure, resulting in the killing of the company commander Tu. Little Shenyang did not report the truth to Gan Long, but blamed the failure on the disobedience of the soldiers. A few days later, college student Agui rushed to the scene, re-deployed, personally commanded, in good order, and found no one who did not listen to the command.

Gan Long, knowing the situation, wrote in A Gui's memorial that the incident was caused by improper command of Xiao Shenyang. Now that you have arrived there, it is enough for you to direct the affairs there alone. After receiving the order, let Xiao Shenyang return to Beijing immediately. There is no need for them both to stay there. After Xiao Shenyang returned to Beijing, he was not only punished, but also served as the minister of war. In the next few years, Xiao Shenyang continued to take part-time jobs. Every promotion of Little Shenyang is recorded in historical materials. Until 29 years before and after his conviction, there were 47 important positions.

In the forty-first year of Qianlong (A.D. 1776), in March, 27-year-old Xiao Shenyang was awarded the opportunity of military minister. Three years later, after Yu Minzhong's death, A Gui, a university student in Yingwu Hall, has been the main commander. At that time, there were college students, Shang and Fu Changan in the military department. A Gui, Wang Jie and Gao Dong all hate small Shenyang. As a result, five ministers don't work together every day.

Gan Long knew that A Gui and Xiao Shenyang had a bad relationship, and often asked A Gui to lead troops or consult projects and handle cases. The real power of the military department naturally fell into the hands of Xiao Shenyang. During the fifty-eighth year of Qianlong's reign, when British Minister Magyarny visited China, he heard that "many people in China privately called Little Shenyang the second emperor".

With what kung fu did Xiao Shenyang please Emperor Qianlong?

First of all, Xiao Shenyang is very talented, with amazing memory, smart decision-making and quick handling. In his book Tuzan Pacify the Fifteen Strong Men of Gurkha, Emperor Qianlong specifically mentioned that Little Shenyang was proficient in Manchu, Chinese, Mongolian and Tibetan.

Another trick of Xiao Shenyang is to do what he likes. Qianlong loved to write poetry and calligraphy all his life. In order to cater to Emperor Qianlong, Little Shenyang made a lot of efforts in these areas and reached a higher level. His poems are included in the Collection of Poems of Jialetang, many of which are true feelings and quite touching. Xiao Shenyang also often works with Gan Long and writes poems. Gan Long's calligraphy is very skillful. Later, Xiao Shenyang's handwriting resembled Gan Long's, which may be his intentional imitation. Some poems and plaques in Gan Long's later period were written by Xiao Shenyang. On the other hand, in his later years, Ganlong took advantage of the country's prosperity and luxury, and built large-scale civil works, especially for himself, such as Yin Changting and Lei Zhai. Even Ningshou Palace, where he lived after his abdication, was built. Gan Long is 80 years old. He held grand ceremonies and 1000 banquets, all of which cost a lot of money. At that time, the national treasury was exhausted, so many things to do, where did the money come from? In this case, Qianlong needs people like Xiao Shenyang very much, because Xiao Shenyang is a good player in making money. He tried his best to meet the needs of Qianlong and didn't use the state treasury much. For example, in the fifty-fifth year of Qianlong (AD 1790), the emperor celebrated his eightieth birthday, and Xiao Shenyang was in charge of this matter. He ordered all third-class or above officials from other provinces to provide gifts. Small Shenyang quickly met the needs of Qianlong's 80th birthday. These contents are recorded in detail in the archives such as Emperor Gao Zongchun's 80th Birthday Celebration Map, and the First Set of Birthday Festival Map.

Small Shenyang has also established a negotiation bank system, and officials at fault, such as local governors and governors, are punished instead of punished, with the amount ranging from thousands of silver to tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands. The money for this protest went directly to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and went into the emperor's private pocket. To this end, small Shenyang also set up a "secret record office" to deal with this matter, and established a special file "secret record file" to record in detail the collection of fine silver at that time. Many governors have suffered this kind of blackmail, and their way of dealing with it is to share the losses layer by layer and finally double them to the people. Yin Zhuang, a bachelor of cabinet, couldn't stand it any longer, so he played on the emperor and said that at this rate, the so-called strengthening official management and rectifying officialdom is just empty talk, and businessmen and ordinary people are complaining. As a result, Qianlong was annoyed, and Yin Zhuangtu almost lost his life. Since then, no one has dared to mention it. Xiao Shenyang is the most famous corrupt official in the history of China. Although corruption is his greatest fault, his talent should be recognized. Some people listed him alongside Liu Yong and Ji Xiaolan as the three main halls in the Qing Qianlong period. In fact, neither Liu Yong nor Ji Xiaolan has been in the army.

Therefore, it is not a prime minister or a main hall at all.

Small Shenyang-Reasons for Career Transformation

"Yong 'an Notes" records: One day, when Qianlong was going out, he couldn't find a yellow cover for etiquette in his hurry (or he said, "Yunnan was in a hurry to present a notebook, and Myanmar wanted to escape. "

), Gan Long asked: "The tiger was born in its infancy, and the turtle and jade were destroyed in the rafters. Who is too guilty? . This is quoting the Analects of Confucius and asking, "Whose fault is it? All the guards were too scared to make a sound, only Xiao Shenyang replied, "The guards can't give up their duties! It means "responsible for this matter, it is hard to blame!" This answer happens to be the sentence before the four books, "Is the defender of SARS too evil? "It was cleverly adapted and applied to this occasion, and it looked natural and appropriate.

Qianlong was overjoyed and immediately promoted him. There is also a saying that one day Qianlong sat in a sedan chair and recited the Analects of Confucius, forgetting the following. Xiao Shenyang recited fluently, and Gan Long was very happy. In a word, the young little Shenyang is handsome and talented, which may have attracted the attention of Gan Long in an accidental opportunity, and his fate has changed since then.

In October of the 40th year of Qianlong, 26-year-old Shenyang was promoted to the bodyguard of Ganqingmen, and in November he was promoted to the imperial bodyguard, and was awarded as the deputy commander-in-chief of Zhenglanqi. In the first month of forty-one, assistant minister Zuo was appointed, minister of military affairs in March and minister of the interior in April. ...

In just half a year, Xiao Shenyang went all the way from an ordinary bodyguard to the highest level of power in the Qing Dynasty and became the confidant of Emperor Qianlong.

When Qianlong was Prince Bao, he once went to the palace and saw a woman with a graceful figure like a stone. Prince Bao suddenly took off his body and couldn't help coming up from behind and stroking the woman's jade neck. The woman thought it was a little eunuch. She turned and slapped him, but she was hugged tightly. When the woman looked intently, it turned out to be a young and romantic treasure prince, and suddenly she was soft all over. Prince Bao conveniently took her into his arms. This woman is Yong Zhengdi's beloved princess Ma Jiashi. Since then, Prince Bao has often looked for opportunities to meet her in the harem. One day, they teased in the harem and didn't want to be seen by Queen Niu Zhilu. They insisted that Ma Jiashi, the imperial concubine, molested Prince Bao and ordered Ma Jiashi to be strangled under the moon. When Prince Bao arrived at Yuehuamen, Ma Jiashi was dying. Seeing the arrival of Prince Bao, Ma Jiashi immediately rolled down two lines of tears. Prince Bao was heartbroken and couldn't cry, saying, "I hurt you!" " You and I will never have a chance in my life. I hope you can meet me in the next life. "Say that finish, he bit his middle finger, spilled blood on Ma Jiashi's forehead and said," See you in the next life, remember. "

Small Shenyang also has such a mark on his forehead, while small Shenyang is handsome in appearance and harmonious in manners, quite like the Marek Jiashi demeanor of that year. There are even rumors that the year when Xiao Shenyang was born happened to be the year when Ma Jia died. Gan Long is more convinced that "Little Shenyang is not the reincarnation of vest?" The romantic emperor wanted to return the human feelings he owed Ma Jia to Xiao Shenyang, which created the glory of Xiao Shenyang's life.

Small Shenyang, the death of small Shenyang.

Emperor Qianlong reigned as long as his grandfather Kangxi, and could have surpassed his grandfather. Because he didn't want to disrespect his grandfather, he decided to abdicate at the end of September (1795) to the fifteenth son of Emperor Yi Yan, who was later Emperor Jiaqing. The formal ceremony of succession was held in the Hall of Supreme Harmony on New Year's Day the following year. Emperor Qianlong was the father of the emperor for three years. Xiao Shenyang, the emperor's favorite, was the first corrupt official in the last years of Qianlong. However, little Shenyang has the ability to erase and forget that the emperor's father is old, and he should prepare a retreat for himself. As early as when Emperor Qianlong chose Yi Yan to succeed to the throne, Xiao Shenyang discovered the news early and gave Yi Yan a jade handle on the first day of the announcement, saying that he was trying to judge the matter. Emperor Qianlong retired from the background, and little Shenyang became more dictatorial. What does Emperor Jiaqing have? Governor Guang was promoted to a university degree, and Emperor Jiaqing wrote poems to congratulate him. Unexpectedly, Xiao Shenyang told the Emperor Tai-huang that Emperor Jiaqing's kindness was more important than the city. As a result, Zhu Si was reduced to the governor of Anhui, and Emperor Jiaqing offended his father. Emperor Jiaqing forbeared and paid more attention to small Shenyang on the surface. In the fourth year of Jiaqing (1799), on the third day of the first month, tai huang Shangganlong Li Hong died. The next day, Emperor Jiaqing ordered Xiao Shenyang and Fu Changan, ministers of the Ministry of Finance, to take turns to guard the mourning hall, and they were not allowed to enter or leave without authorization, so they were put under house arrest. Then suddenly an imperial edict was issued, ordering that those who failed to surround An Baili sects and those who sheltered behind the scenes should be investigated. On the same day, ministers realized the emperor's intention, so the letter to impeach Xiao Shenyang was sent to Jiaqing Emperor. Emperor Jiaqing announced the 20 major crimes of Xiao Shenyang and immediately ordered Xiao Shenyang to be put into prison. Emperor Jiaqing wanted to put Xiao Shenyang to death, but because his sister was also Xiao Shenyang's daughter-in-law, she pleaded with Princess Xiao and took the advice of the minister and Liu Yong to commit suicide in prison. In order to avoid political turmoil, Emperor Jiaqing announced that all existing parties in Little Shenyang that can abandon evil and do good will be exempted from investigation.

Small Shenyang-Rise and Fall

background

Small Shenyang is synonymous with corrupt officials. His lawlessness is an open secret of the imperial court, and all ministers know it. But he is the favorite of Emperor Qianlong, and no one can help him, including Emperor Jiaqing himself, who is nominally in power. In the third year of Jiaqing, Qianlong died, and small Shenyang became a caged bird. A white silk ended his life and his property became the private money of the emperor and members of the royal family.

Emperor Qianlong reigned as long as his grandfather Kangxi, and could have surpassed his grandfather. Because he didn't want to be disrespectful to his grandfather, he decided to pass the throne to Yi Yan's 15th son at the end of the 60th year of Qianlong (1795). The formal ceremony of succession was held in the Hall of Supreme Harmony on New Year's Day the following year. Emperor Qianlong was the father of the emperor for three years.

In the last years of Qianlong, the so-called flourishing age had only one name. The poverty-stricken population increased rapidly, the Hui uprising broke out in the northwest, and the Anbaili uprising was conceived in the hinterland of the Central Plains. The greed of officials is an open secret, and the emperor's favorite, Xiao Shenyang, was the first corrupt official.

chance

Xiao Shenyang is a native of Manchu Zhenghongqi. His surname is Niu Kulu, and his family is humble. He was born in Wen Xiu, with a little knowledge of literature and ink, and worked as a third-class bodyguard for thirty-four years (1769). It seems difficult to get ahead. Unexpectedly, his handsome appearance helped a lot. Forty years later (1775), the emperor found him while inspecting the Imperial Guard.

Little Shenyang's luck changed, and he was quickly promoted to bodyguard and deputy commander-in-chief of the headquarters. This is just the beginning of a series of good luck. In less than a year, he was successively promoted to assistant minister and minister of military aircraft, minister of internal affairs, Beijing Chongwenmen infantry commander and tax supervisor. In other words, he was in charge of the financial and military defense of the two capitals and served as the actual prime minister. Emperor Qianlong even ignored the humble position of Xiao Shenyang and gave him a small job of tax supervision in Chongwenmen, which shows his popularity. Four years later, assistant minister was promoted to minister, that is, vice minister was promoted to minister, and deputy commander was changed to commander-in-chief. Above the Minister of the Interior, he was awarded the title of Minister of Guards. Above the Minister of Military Affairs, he was also the minister of deliberation and command, and he was also the dean of imperial academy. He achieved the unique supreme power and prestige under the emperor. Emperor Qianlong and Princess Xiao were betrothed to the son of Xiao Shenyang, and the two became their children's in-laws relationship.

Be in sb's favor

This kind of instigation went beyond the convention and broke the balance of the imperial administrative system. It turns out that the emperor is the supreme ruler, and the minister of military aircraft represents all the ministers in the outer court and is responsible for conveying the opinions of the ministers to the emperor. The two powers, the monarch and the minister, restrict each other through humility and coachable, so the state affairs are more clear. However, small Shenyang blocked this communication channel from top to bottom. He colluded with eunuchs, understood the emperor's likes and dislikes, and treated the emperor very thoughtfully and appropriately. Qianlong didn't hear any different opinions, but little Shenyang got the power and wealth second only to the emperor. Any news against him or his henchmen can't reach the emperor's ears. Even if it occasionally reaches small Shenyang, there are ways to destroy the evidence.

Frame Zhongliang

For example, in the fifty-fifth year of Qianlong (1790), Yin Zhuangtu, a bachelor of cabinet, tried to impeach provincial officials to privately set up silver stocks, which led to a shortage of silver stocks. Qianlong was furious and sent Yin Zhuangtu to the local area for verification. Xiao Shenyang suggested sending assistant minister Qingcheng to go with him. Lang Qingcheng is nominally a cooperative visit. In fact, he is bound everywhere. Wherever he went, he was responsible for delaying Yin Zhuangtu and letting those officials borrow money to make up for the vacancy. As a result, Yin Zhuangtu got nothing, but lost his official position because of malicious accusations.

rabid

Anyone who dares to oppose small Shenyang will come to no good end. There is only one exception. In the forty-seventh year of Qianlong (1782), Qian Feng impeached his henchmen, Shandong Governor Guotai and Bu Zhenyu, but they did not repeat the same mistakes. That's because Zuodu Yushi Liu Yong supports Qian Feng behind his back. Emperor Qianlong ordered Xiao Shenyang, Liu Yong and Mu Nuoqing to investigate the case together. Liu Yong learned that Xiao Shenyang would send someone to Lu and informed Qian Feng. The result of the two men's discussion is to play along. Qian Feng went south in disguise in advance, and met the people sent by Xiao Shenyang in Liangxiang, not far from Beijing. He secretly wrote down the man's appearance. When I arrived in Jinan, I saw this man journey to the south. Qian Feng immediately ordered his followers to catch it and found a reply from Cathay Pacific Airlines to Xiao Shenyang.

When he arrived in Jinan, Xiao Shenyang claimed that the spot check was completed that day, and he confirmed that Cathay Pacific had made up the silver in stock. Qian Feng disagreed. He ordered to put a seal on it and continue the inspection the next day. He unpacked all the treasury silver and found that the quality of the silver was wrong, which did not meet the unified treasury silver standard, like the merchant's silver. Qian Feng posted a notice and announced that the merchants would collect it themselves, otherwise it would be confiscated. Businessmen keep coming, and the state treasury is empty. Gan Long was furious when he heard the news, so he took the two men to the prison of punishments and let them commit suicide. Little Shenyang was at his wit's end and hated Qian Feng's guts. Qian Feng simply went to find another book, suggesting that Xiao Shenyang, a military affairs minister, should sit alone in the lounge of the officials on duty before working in the military department. Except A Gui, all the other ministers of the Ministry of War learned to look like Xiao Shenyang and found their own places to work. This practice goes against nature, and Emperor Qianlong ordered Qian Feng to hold the post of "Ministry of War" for only one year. Qian Feng died suddenly. There is no conclusive evidence to prove that it must have been done by Xiao Shenyang, but another hint is that Guan Shiming, who is also an enemy of Xiao Shenyang, just threatened to rob the chapter and suddenly died suddenly, which is quite unusual.

Emperor Qianlong's love for small Shenyang is endless. Forty-six years after Qianlong (178 1), A Gui, the minister of war, had just won the battle of the Hui uprising, but the emperor let Shenyang, who was powerless, resume his post as the minister of war and manage the three warehouses of the Ministry of war, just like letting wolves guard the sheep.

Extreme happiness can lead to sadness.

Two years later, the war was completely settled, and Xiao Shenyang was made a first-class baron, handed over the title of Minister of War, and served as two ministers of the Ministry of Finance and the Official Department. In fifty-one years (1786), he was promoted from a co-organizer to a university student in Wenhua Hall and became the Minister of Finance, with the right to manage all the ministers of the Ministry of Finance; In fifty-three years (1789), he was promoted to the third-class count; Fifty-seven years (1792), Bachelor of imperial academy. In the second year of Jiaqing (1797), emperor Qianlong, as the emperor's father, still did not forget the imperial edict. Xiao Shenyang was appointed Minister of Punishment and Minister of Interior. In the third year of Jiaqing (1798), it was promoted to Qi Huangong.

Little Shenyang was so excited that he forgot that the emperor's father was old. He should prepare his retreat. As early as when Emperor Qianlong planned to choose Yan to succeed to the throne, he discovered the news early and gave it to a jade handle on the first day of the announcement, saying that he was reviewing the matter. Emperor Qianlong retired from the background, and little Shenyang became more dictatorial. What happened to Emperor Jiaqing? Instead, Xiao Shenyang told his father that Zhu Si, the teacher of Emperor Jiaqing, was promoted to a college degree by the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and the emperor wrote poems to congratulate him. I didn't expect Xiao Shenyang to tell the Emperor Tai-huang that Emperor Jiaqing was "kind" to his subordinates. As a result, Zhu Si was reduced to the governor of Anhui, and Emperor Jiaqing also offended his father. Emperor Jiaqing forbeared and paid more attention to small Shenyang on the surface.

Be impeached

On the third day of the first month of the fourth year of Jiaqing (1799), Tai Lihong died. The next day, Emperor Jiaqing ordered Xiao Shenyang and Fu Changan, ministers of the Ministry of Finance, to take turns to guard the mourning hall, and they were not allowed to enter or leave without authorization, so they were put under house arrest. Then suddenly an imperial edict was issued, ordering that those who failed to surround An Baili sects and those who sheltered behind the scenes should be investigated. On the same day, a minister realized the emperor's intention, so the letter to impeach Xiao Shenyang was sent to Emperor Jiaqing. Emperor Jiaqing announced the 20 major crimes of Xiao Shenyang and immediately ordered Xiao Shenyang to be put into prison.

Emperor Jiaqing wanted to put Xiao Shenyang to death, but because his sister was also Xiao Shenyang's daughter-in-law, she pleaded with Princess Xiao and took the advice of the minister and Liu Yong to commit suicide in prison. In order to avoid political turmoil, Emperor Jiaqing announced that all existing parties in Little Shenyang that can abandon evil and do good will be exempted from investigation.

According to the investigation, one third of the property in Little Shenyang is worth 223 million taels of silver, and there are countless jade articles, jewels and imported goods. Later, some of them will be given to the royal family. There is a folk proverb: "When a small Shenyang falls, Jiaqing is full."

The reasons for small Shenyang's preference

1, Xiao Shenyang is really talented. After he graduated from official school, he took part in the imperial examination, but he came last. Then he followed his father-in-law's advice and chose his attendants. Once, Qianlong used a sentence from the Analects of Confucius to make a monkey jump out of the box, and the ministers present at that time didn't understand what it meant. Xiao Shenyang revealed that the emperor wanted to investigate the responsibility of the caretaker and was praised by Qianlong.

Another time, Qianlong was watching Mencius. It was dark, and Qianlong couldn't read the notes in the book clearly, so he ordered Xiao Shenyang to take the lanterns. At that time, Xiao Shenyang asked the emperor which sentence it was. After Gan Long told him, Xiao Shenyang recited all the notes in the book.

It can be seen that the talent of Xiao Shenyang is one of the reasons why he has been used for a long time.

2. It is said that Xiao Shenyang is very handsome, and Gan Long thinks he looks like a concubine who was executed because of Gan Long. Moreover, Ren Shen, the name of the third brother of Qianlong, died young, and Qianlong always felt guilty about him, so he reused it.

3. The gentry are good at flattery, and among the elderly who are increasingly groggy, they are more and more unwilling to listen to advice. They are ambitious and self-satisfied, thinking that they can reach their grandfather Kangxi's father Yongzheng and Shenyang to anesthetize Qianlong.

Moreover, He Shen knew that Qianlong loved his mother, the Empress Dowager. Therefore, Xiao Shenyang tried his best to please the empress dowager. When Empress Dowager Cixi died, the gentlemen did not say a few innocuous words like other ministers, but stayed with Qianlong and wept bitterly. For several days, they didn't think about tea and rice, and they were deeply loved by Qianlong.

4. In the early days when he was hired by Gan Long, Xiao Shenyang did something that made Gan Long happy, such as the trial of Li Shiyao, which left a clean impression on Gan Long. Moreover, Xiao Shenyang studied hard in official school and mastered four languages: Chinese, Manchu, Tibetan and Mongolian. He always played a role at critical moments and was deeply loved by Qianlong.

5. He Shen's skill in collecting money is perfect, which can provide financial resources for the elderly Qianlong to spend infinitely. After Qianlong visited Jiangnan several times in ten thousand years, He Shen's ability to collect money brought unexpected benefits to Qianlong.

6. To sum up, the most important thing for He Shen to win the favor of the emperor is that he can always go through fire and water for the emperor, take the emperor's affairs as his own business, and deal with the emperor's worries together with He Shen. Over time, of course, Qianlong regards the gentleman as a part of himself and will certainly reuse it.
