What is the relationship between Ji Xiaolan and Xiao Shenyang?

The relationship between Ji Xiaolan and Shenyang is very complicated. They are both fellow villagers and colleagues, but there are also many contradictions and conflicts.

Xiao Shenyang was a native of Niuzhi Road, Manchuria, an important official of North Korea and a businessman of Qing Dynasty. Little Shenyang was very clever and good at consolidating his position in North Korea, which made Emperor Qianlong trust him very much. Xiao Shenyang also asked Emperor Qianlong to marry his daughter to Xiao Shenyang's eldest son, thus becoming a royal family and powerful person. With the growth of his power and status, Xiao Shenyang's selfish desires also increased. He began to use his power and status to engage in corruption, control his property, run his own shop and seek benefits.

Ji Xiaolan, Han nationality, was admitted as a scholar in the 19th year of Qianlong, and later worked as an editor in imperial academy. He became a subordinate of Xiao Shenyang, but their work didn't overlap much. On the one hand, small Shenyang has more affairs, mainly around the Qianlong emperor, and has little contact with Ji Xiaolan. On the other hand, although Ji Xiaolan is a civil servant, he is different from the hometown and ethnic background of small Shenyang and has not participated in the interest network of small Shenyang.

Generally speaking, the relationship between Ji Xiaolan and Xiao Shenyang is not close, and there are some contradictions and conflicts between them.
