The Qianlong Emperor has been an emperor for 60 years, and he can be said to have made great achievements in the field of martial arts, and he was satisfied, he became proud, called himself a perfect old man, and he liked to sing praises and virtues more and more, so some people used flattery to gain his favor and grasped great power.
The big corrupt official Helong is such a person, Helong was originally a young captain, by chance he was appreciated by Qianlong, and was promoted to the imperial bodyguard, Helong is a very clever person, what the Qianlong Emperor wants, he does everything very satisfactorily, Qianlong loves to listen to anything, Helong will talk smoothly, as soon as the days go by, Qianlong will be regarded as a cronie, and Helong is also rising step by step, in less than ten years, from a guard to a university scholar, and later the Qianlong Emperor also married his daughter and Princess Xiao to Helong's son, Helong climbed up his in-laws, then the power is not to mention how big, coupled with the Qianlong Emperor's old age and decline, the major affairs of the dynasty naturally fell into the hands of Helong, and after Helong grew up, he didn't have the heart to care about other major things, but he blindly looted wealth, he not only accepted bribes, but also openly blackmailed, not only secretly greedy, but also openly plundered.
The tribute offered by local officials to the emperor had to pass through Hejun's hands, and Helong first picked the most exquisite and rare to keep for himself, and then sent the rest to the palace, fortunately, Qianlong did not inquire, and others did not dare to denounce, so his greed became more and more, and Helong used his position and power to do everything possible to loot wealth, and some courtiers and local officials knew his elasticity, so they tried to loot precious jewelry treasures to curry favor with Helong, and the big guan pressed the small officials, and the small officials squeezed the grassroots people layer by layer, After Qianlong sat as emperor for 60 years, he passed the throne to the crown prince Yan, who succeeded to the throne, that is, Qingrenzong was also called Jiaqing Emperor, Jiaqing Emperor had long known about Helong's greed and lawlessness, and three years later, the Qianlong Emperor died.
The Jiaqing Emperor immediately arrested Hejun, called him zs, and patted the guan staff to confiscate Hejun's family property, Hejun's wealth was originally famous, but the result of the raid was still shocking to the government and the public, a long list of raids recorded gold and silver treasures Ayaluo satin, rare antiques are too many to count, roughly estimated that it was worth about 800 million taels of silver, worth ten years of income from the imperial court, and later heard that the large amount of treasures confiscated were so that the Jiaqing Emperor sent people to the palace, So some people in the people made up two sentences to satirize: Helong fell, Jiaqing was full, this is the origin of this sentence.
