Feudal society has experienced many dynasties for more than two thousand years, and these dynasties have their own advantages, and in the depths of history, they have shown the light that belongs to that dynasty alone. The Qing Dynasty was the last dynasty in feudal history, and the prosperous Qing Dynasty made us feel a little desolate. But the Qing Dynasty also had a heyday, and if the Qing Dynasty had been going downhill, the Qing Dynasty would have perished faster.
The Qing Dynasty during the Qianlong period was still relatively prosperous, the people were able to eat enough, and there were not many wars. No matter which dynasty, which emperor will have corrupt officials during his reign. People live in this world for a lifetime, and some people just want a lot of money, so that their lives will become very good, and this era has nothing to do with the ruler. During the Qianlong period, there was a super invincible and corrupt official, He Yan.
Qianlong was a more vigorous emperor, but Qianlong preferred Hezhen. The reason why He Yan was greedy to the point of being able to shake the foundation of the state in the end was inseparable from Qianlong's connivance. There is still a difference between the historical Hezhen and the Hezhen in the TV series, the historical Hezhen is more handsome and more sleek, and the Hezhen who can become a national courtier must have his own uniqueness.
Although it is said that He yan is a big corrupt official, the historical evaluation of the character of He Yan is mixed. His ability and talent cannot be ignored, and his contribution to the country has made many people very fond of Hezhen. However, Hezhen's greed made everyone very disappointed in him, and when he was finally raided by Jiaqing, it was also very exaggerated that his own silver could feed the whole country.
Although He yan is more greedy, he does not take any money, and he clearly knows where the bottom line is. If he was really a person who saw money and couldn't move when he saw money, and wanted to reach out and grab a handful of money no matter what kind of money he had, then He yan would not be left behind by Qianlong. It is not false that Qianlong likes Hezhen, but what Qianlong prefers is his own status, and anyone who shakes the Jiangshan Society is unforgivable.
He Yan first did not covet the money for disaster relief, and only when there was a disaster in some places would Qianlong be allowed to allocate funds, so this money was equivalent to the life-saving money of the people in the disaster area. When we watch TV, there is often such a plot, the disaster relief money from the central government to the disaster area will be thinned by 10% every place, and when it comes to the disaster area, the money is simply not enough to let the people in the disaster area survive the crisis safely.
And the emperor has zero tolerance for such things, the people are the key to the survival of a dynasty, usually how greedy can not be ignored, but in the face of major disasters dare to do so, that is, naked punching the emperor in the face. If the emperor did not punish him severely, he would be sorry for his own disgrace. He Yan clearly knew the importance of this money, so he would not touch this money.
Second, the money and the emperor will not move. Like the money for disaster relief, the imperial examination is also the foundation of a court, and if a country wants to be able to live in peace and stability for a long time, it is indispensable to talent, and with talent, it can make the country develop better. For this, Kazuma knew this and was very supportive, so the silver and kan of the imperial examination would not move.
Another point, this point is very powerful, Andan is very self-aware, for the things he is not competent for, even if this errand can catch more silver, he will not go. In ancient times, many officials were sentenced to death because they were not self-aware, they did not have the ability to do their errands well, but they still kept collecting money in their arms, and such a person emperor would not tolerate it. He Yan is that I can't do it, I don't go, I don't care about the money, I don't care what other people think about my instigation or something else.
Because of hezhen's three non-greedy things, coupled with his excellent ability to do things, Qianlong was extremely tolerant of hezhen. But when jiaqing came to Jiaqing, it was not possible, and when Jiaqing was still a prince, he was very unaccustomed to Hezhen, so the first thing he did when he ascended to the throne was to copy Hezhen's home. Although this was the case, there were still many corrupt officials during the Jiaqing period, and the court was also very smoky, so the demise of the Qing Dynasty was also an inevitable result.
