Before he died, Qianlong gave nave a life-saving decree. Why did he open it when he and nave were arrested?

Because Xiao Shenyang opened the letter of help left by Gan Long, which read three words: protect the whole body.

When it comes to big corrupt officials in the Great Qing Dynasty, small Shenyang is definitely the first to bear the brunt. The property he practiced during his reign was equivalent to the income of Yu Daqing for fifteen years, and he was really rich. So later, when Jiaqing copied the small Shenyang home, there was a joke that the small Shenyang fell down and Jiaqing had enough.

Of course, Xiao Shenyang also knows that he is greedy for money, but he has the backing of Qianlong, so he has nothing to fear and does whatever he wants. He knows Ganlong's temper, so many times he knows how to please Ganlong and always makes him happy. Once the Queen Mother was ill, Shenyang was more anxious than Gan Long, which made Gan Long very moved and made him more valued.

Gan Long knew that little Shenyang was greedy, but he chose to turn a blind eye. First, because Xiao Shenyang didn't spend all the money he got, he gave it back to Ganlong, otherwise Ganlong could live such a chic and happy life and go to Jiangnan if he had nothing to do. Second, Xiao Shenyang is just greedy, but he is loyal to Qianlong. He is satisfied that Xiao Shenyang can help him do what Long can't or can't do.

Later, Jiaqing climbed to the top. With three fires, Qianlong knew that Jiaqing was sure to rule small Shenyang, and for the stability of the Qing empire, small Shenyang had to die. But he thought, after all, little Shenyang has done a lot for him, he still needs to give him some favors, so he wrote down three big characters: leave a whole body.

Have pity on Shenyang. He thought he could continue to live a good life under the grace of Qianlong. I didn't expect this result. I can only say that the king is the most ruthless.
