Qianlong knew why he still valued Hezhen so much and let Jiaqing keep him alive after his death. It has always been estimated that everyone has a question in their hearts, Qianlong is a great Ming Emperor, so is it true that the imperial court was full of Qing officials during his reign? In fact, the answer is not so, we all know very well that the existence of Hezhen in those years made the entire people and courtiers of the Qing Dynasty jealous, and all this was not because of the cruelty of the Heshi officials, but because of his corruption!
Speaking of this, you may also be curious, why qianlongming knows that he has done a lot of corrupt things with adults, but has never punished him? In essence, the reasons for this are roughly the following points!
First, because he himself was unmatched by other ministers in the court, he not only mastered four languages, but also held more than half of the important positions of the Qing Dynasty, especially since he had always followed Qianlong's wishes in all aspects, and even prepared expenses for the emperor in the process of many southern tours, and although he was in a high position, he was never obsessed with power.
Second, because he has an outstanding financial strength with the adults, we all know that in fact, he originally served as a key minister of the treasury, and when Qianlong first ascended to the throne in the Ming Dynasty, the treasury was in short supply, but the emperor loved the southern tour, if there was no money, it would be impossible to travel, but this problem was solved by the Heshi, so for the saint he was indeed a rare "heavy minister"!
The third reason is that Qianlong knows that He Yan is not only a "god of wealth", but even if he has many positions, he is a powerful minister who can easily be overthrown. Therefore, after Jiaqing came to power, he would kill the Heshi at the first time, so that the originally deficit of the treasury became full.
The next thing to say is the most important point, that is, because in general, qianlong will not deal with Hezhen, in large part, because he, as a generation of Ming Jun, has always called himself the "Ten Perfect Old Man", especially coupled with the fact that he attached great importance to Heshi during his reign, and also gave most of the important positions of Heshi, all of which were decisions made by his hand.
Needless to say, if Qianlong had executed Hezhen as soon as he abdicated, it would have been criticized, first of all, he had originally supported Heshi to the position of a powerful courtier, and he and his courtiers would have been so arrogant and wanton in the court to commit a series of corrupt acts and things, to a large extent, because they were blessed by the emperor, so Emperor Gaozong of Qing never punished He daren in order to leave a good reputation for himself!
I don't know what you think of the corrupt officials and officials in the Qing Dynasty after reading this content that Xiaobian talked about today? I personally feel that the reason why this minister has always indulged in corrupt things, in fact, from this point, it is obvious that one of the real problems of the Qing Dynasty is that no matter how hateful the courtiers are, as long as they are valued and loved by the emperors of the dynasty, it can be said that they are the supporting reason for their unscrupulous work!
