There are many literary prisons in the Qing Dynasty, many of which are particularly absurd. In 1711, Xu Jun, the Hanlin official, was ordered by Yongzheng to kill corpses because of a sentence that "Qingfeng is illiterate, why do you turn over books?". Although the Qianlong Emperor did not care about his father, he was also particularly sensitive to words.
However, the general literary prison is caused by questioning the legitimacy of the Qing Dynasty's rule, but there is a different literary prison in the Qianlong period, and the main criminal Zhi Tianbao is extremely praised by the Qing Dynasty, and finally exaggerates his life. Zhi Tianbao is a native of Gaoyi County, born in an ordinary family, followed the foot medicine skills, and later went to Qizhou to open a medicine shop to treat people.
When the business was sluggish, Zhi Tian Leopard closed the shop and took the plaster and sold it everywhere. Zhi Tianbao's ability to take the pulse was already good, coupled with his ability to speak the Tao, the common people were fooled by him. In ancient times, when it came to medicine, it was easy to associate with fortune telling, and Zhi Tianbao really knew a little gossip and divination.
For this reason, he had the idea of writing books and offering books. Zhi Tianbao is also bold and fat, and the book he wrote is not anything else, but his own book "Calculated" out of the "Great Qing Heaven Fixed Fortune Number". During qianlong's tenure, he had already cracked down on books on the affairs of the Qing Dynasty many times, and Zhi Tianbao thought that as long as he praised the great achievements of the Qing Dynasty, he would be fine, after all, who did not like to listen to praise.
Zhi Tianbao made a lot of money when selling medicine, and a maid named Zhang Jiuxiao had seen Zhi Tianbao's ability to save people, and he was very impressed. He thought that there was no future as a lifelong domestic worker, and it was better to learn the skill of boiling plasters with Dr. Zhi and make some money.
Zhang Jiuxiao's idea was right, but it was a pity that he chose the wrong master. Zhi Tian Leopard is a half-hanger, and he always likes to tell some godlike stories. When he was writing the book, he deceived Zhang Jiuxiao that he had met the old lord in 1764, and the old lord had given him a copy of the Book of Ten Thousand Years of the Dynasty, and he was "painstakingly" copying it.
Zhang Jiuxiao was also illiterate and illiterate, so he believed in his wisdom leopard. In 1779, the Qianlong Emperor visited the Imperial Tomb, and Zhitian Leopard saw the opportunity to come, and immediately took his disciple Zhang Jiuxiao to the Imperial Tomb to present the "Great Qing Heavenly Destiny Number". However, Zhitian Leopard suffered from a leg disease, and after a long time of hurrying, his feet hurt endlessly.
In order not to delay the hour, Zhi Tianbao handed the book to Zhang Jiuxiao, asking him to catch up with the emperor's itinerary. Zhang Jiuxiao rushed to Qianlong and offered the "Great Qing HeavenLy Destiny Number" to him. When Qianlong received this book, he saw that it was all patting the qing dynasty's horse ass, and he was also embarrassed to see it.
However, after seeing that the book said that the Great Qing Dynasty had 800 years and that the Qianlong era name would be able to be used for 57 years, the Qianlong Emperor ordered Zhang Jiuxiao to be detained and interrogated on the spot. Zhang Jiuxiao confessed all the things about his master Zhi Tianbao, and as a result, Zhi Tianbao was immediately executed by Ling Chi.
Originally, Zhang Jiuxiao was also about to be sentenced to be beheaded, but Qianlong Nian was illiterate, so he changed his sentence to beheading, and the reason given by the Qianlong Emperor was convincing enough. He was a well-educated emperor from an early age, and he never believed in this fortune-telling theory. Zhi Tianbao wrote the era name for 800 years in the book, which is clearly a nonsense.
In addition, Zhi Tianbao claimed to be the Shunzhi Emperor Xiansheng, and even wrote the name of the Kangxi Emperor directly in the book. You must know that Qianlong's most admired in his heart is his grandfather, and Zhi Tianbao's move is unforgivable. Finally, Zhi Tianbao wrote Qianlong's era number to the end of 57 years, which is equivalent to saying that Qianlong will live to be 81 years old.
Although the age of 81 is relatively long for the ancients, there are really divine operators, and they dare not really give the emperor a destiny, which is suspected of cursing the emperor. As a result, Zhi Tianbao lost his life, and Zhang Jiuxiao, who did not know a word, also became a funeral.
