How did Liu Yong get rid of the interference of Xiao Shenyang and punish Guotai, the governor of Shandong Province?

Liu Yong played an indirect role in the death of Xiao Shenyang. After the death of Emperor Qianlong, Xiao Shenyang lost his umbrella, and Emperor Jiaqing, who had been at odds with Xiao Shenyang, immediately sent Liu Yong to North Korea to investigate Xiao Shenyang's nepotism and corruption and bribery.

Liu Yong lived up to the expectations of Emperor Jiaqing, and soon found out a series of crimes such as small Shenyang and its followers plundering the wealth of the people, extortion and so on, totaling 20. Taking advantage of these crimes, Emperor Jiaqing executed Xiao Shenyang and confiscated his property.

Liu Yong is Ji Xiaolan's teacher and the son of Liu Tongxun, the minister of punishments. He is a cabinet college student and has been an honest official all his life. In the twenty years of Qianlong (1755), Liu Yong's father, Liu Tongxun, as the Minister of Military Affairs, was ordered to go to prison by Qianlong because of his dereliction of duty in handling military affairs. The father was found guilty, and of course he had something to do with the son of a North Korean official. Liu Yong was not only an official, but also put in prison.

You know, the emperor's ideas are changeable. When he is in a good mood, he thinks of Liu Yong and his son who are in prison. Suddenly, he felt that Liu Tongxun's dereliction of duty was not a big mistake. After being locked up for a period of time, he was punished, so he ordered the release of Liu Yong and his son. Subsequently, Liu Yong was appointed as Zheng Xue to select talents for the court.

During his tenure as an Anhui scholar, Liu Yong found that many Gong Sheng and Guo Jian were bought with money. Soon, he reported the matter to the court and asked the court to order state and county officials to strictly manage Hezi's illegal activities.

Later, he was sent to Jiangsu to study politics, and found that the students from Gong Sheng and Guo Jian didn't care about local officials at all, but these officials were very cautious and didn't dare to offend others for their own benefit. After Liu Yong reported this matter to the imperial court, Emperor Qianlong praised him for his understanding of politics, and immediately ordered Yin Jishan, governor of Liangjiang, and others to vigorously eliminate this unhealthy trend.

Then Liu Yong's official position went up. He was a magistrate in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province and an official in Jining. Later, his officials embezzled silver from the national treasury, but he was implicated because he didn't investigate immediately and was sent to the Northwest Army by Emperor Qianlong.

A year later, he was recalled to Beijing and ordered to study in Siku Quanshu Library. And his career didn't end here. Emperor Qianlong was a king who cared for talents. Liu Yong's talent has always been in his eyes, and he was soon promoted to the official position.

Soon, Emperor Qianlong was very angry when he received a complaint from the partner of Yushiqian accusing Shandong Governor Guotai Private Party of taking bribes and bending the law. Liu Yong and Xiao Shenyang were immediately sent to Shandong to investigate the matter. Xiao Shenyang formed an alliance with Cathay Pacific, and it was Xiao Shenyang who helped Cathay Pacific to be the governor of Shandong. Of course, it's all about money.

Therefore, when investigating the corruption case of Guotai, Xiao Shenyang secretly did a lot of things to hinder Liu Yong from handling the case, but Liu Yong was resourceful. Disguised as a Taoist priest, he made an unannounced visit to Shandong Province and learned that Shandong had been hit by disasters for three consecutive years, but the imperial court had never heard of it. It was all because Cathay Pacific lied about the disaster, and every time it reported to the imperial court, it lied about the bumper harvest in Shandong, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.

It is precisely because Cathay Pacific says that Shandong has a bumper harvest every year that it has to pay taxes to the court every year. The people starved to death because there was no food, and they had fled. No money to pay taxes! However, Cathay Pacific doesn't care, as long as someone doesn't pay taxes, they will be arrested and put in prison. However, he was also afraid that the famine would spread to the imperial court, so he killed Jinshi and Juren who stood out for the people.

After all the investigation, liuyong came to the Shandong Governor's Office of Guotai. At this point, Cathay Pacific already knew about the scandal. He raised a lot of silver and tried to bribe Liu Yong to cover up his crime. Liu Yong is an honest and selfless official, unmoved by money. He truthfully reported to the court, and then ordered the opening of the warehouse to release grain to help the poor.

After bringing Cathay Pacific back to Beijing, many people pleaded for Cathay Pacific, and Shenyang was one of them. Liu Yong put all the collected evidence in front of Emperor Qianlong, argued with reason, and finally sent Cathay Pacific to the guillotine to save the people from danger.

Liu Yong's talent is not only manifested in being an official, but also in calligraphy. He is one of the four great calligraphers in Qing Dynasty. His calligraphy works include Shi An, Qing Tang Ai Tie and Xiao Kai.
