The Qianlong Emperor was a more poetic emperor in Chinese history, and his love for Han chinese culture in his life was unmatched by any emperor in the history of the Qing Dynasty, but the self-esteem in the heart of this Qianlong Emperor was very well preserved, on the one hand, he secretly played with Han culture and clothing in the court, and on the other hand, he maintained Manchurian characteristics in the outside world.
In his later years, the Qianlong Emperor already felt that the world was too peaceful, and there was no longer a need to govern the country as hard as before, and the Qianlong Emperor was comparable to his father, the Yongzheng Emperor in the first twenty years, but such a day was very monotonous and boring, which overdrawn the qianlong emperor's energy, so in his old age he began to play in the mountains, after all, this prosperous world did not enjoy the enjoyment is not in vain.
According to the "Draft History of the Qing Dynasty", it is recorded that the Qianlong Emperor especially loved the poetry couplet, and when he forgot to eat and went to bed. The meaning of this sentence is that the Qianlong Emperor's love for poetry, calligraphy and painting and couplets has reached the point of forgetting to eat, and many times in order to write a good poem and a good pair, he can not even eat, even sleep, and it is precisely because of this that he has his high prolific and super-prosperous Tang Dynasty.
What I want to say this time is that when the Qianlong Emperor was playing in the lower Jiangnan, in order to test the wisdom and reaction ability of the people around him, he produced a couplet, and as a result, countless people around him who usually boasted of being full of learning could not come out of the lower link, and when the emperor wanted to be proud, a woman came out of the mountain forest and casually told the story of the lower link, which was really amazing!
The birth of an ancient talented woman is amazing
I don't know what the ancient history of other countries is like, but in the ancient Chinese society, there are very few talented women, but the ancient Chinese environment created this look, at that time many women did not have the opportunity to read and write, most of the women began to marry at the age of 16 or so, many people may have to ask why they got married so early.
Isn't it good to use your youth to read more and learn more to improve yourself and then take control of the economy? Actually, it's not really good. Because the environment at that time did not allow women to hold economic power, matriarchal society has long become a thing of the past in the long river of history, and many women over the age of 20 who do not marry have finally become leftover women at the old age.
There are not many talented women who can be remembered in Chinese society today, generally from the beginning of the Qin Dynasty, there are Ban Zhao and Cai Wenji of the Han Dynasty, these two people learned to be rich in five cars to inherit the poetry and Confucian inheritance, so that many men are ashamed of themselves, admiring them from the bottom of their hearts, and then there is the Yu Xuanji of the Tang Dynasty, she has the charm of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and has fascinated countless readers.
Each dynasty will not be much worse, li Qingzhao, who opened a generation of euphemisms during the Song Dynasty, suppressed the entire Song Dynasty's gentle male lyricists, and can be called the first female talent of the Song Dynasty. These people are talented, talented women, their stories passed down to the Ming and Qing dynasties inspired many people, the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty also have some talented women. This time, I want to talk about a female talent in the mountains who dared to harden the Qianlong Emperor.
The Qianlong Emperor traveled through jiangnan customs
The Qianlong Emperor of the Qing Dynasty said to the outside world that he would inspect the people's conditions and water conservancy projects in the Jiangnan region and prevent some corrupt officials from harming the people. In fact, this is an excuse found by the Qianlong Emperor, and his real intentions do not stop here, because his achievements in history are very controversial, and some scholars believe that the Qianlong Emperor is completely a loser who eats the old money, and some people think that he has done something.
The ironclad evidence in history shows that the Qing Dynasty did reach a peak during the reign of the Qianlong Emperor, and is called by many as the Kangxi Yongzheng Qianlong Prosperous Era is the longest prosperous era in Chinese history, with a total time of almost one hundred and thirty years, but if you want to calculate it this way, none of the eight generations of monarchs in the Qin Kingdom since the Qin Xiaogong and his father's restoration have not fainted, and they are constantly getting stronger, so the Kangqian prosperous era is a bit untenable.
Ji Xiaolan and He Yan were the two most favorite courtiers of the Qianlong Emperor, because the personality between these two courtiers was rather strange, one was that he liked to speculate on the emperor's mind, do things according to the emperor's mind, and then most of the profits obtained belonged to the emperor, and a small part or a small part belonged to himself, which was the role of He yan as the qianlong emperor's money bag at that time.
Ji Xiaolan was a famous talent during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, and the reason why he was carried to the Qianlong Emperor's parade in Jiangnan was because he was indeed a huge person, encountering some beautiful low scores, the poems written by the emperor needed some masters to polish, and then it was said that the emperor wrote it, and there was also the quarrel between Ji Xiaolan and Hezhen that became the pleasure of the emperor.
The Qianlong Emperor dared to be right against his son
Under the guidance of Ji Xiaolan, the Qianlong Emperor came to the Fuchun Mountain of Tonglu, where it was said that there were four great talents living in seclusion, where he lived in the four great talents of Gao, Zhou, Wen, and Shi, and Ji Xiaolan said that when he was alone, he had fought with these four people, and they were not his opponents.
When playing the beautiful scenery of the southern part of Fuchun Mountain, the Qianlong Emperor saw a waterfall in the mountain flowing by, and different colors shone out under the sunlight, and the surrounding green mountains and green water environment and sweet and delicious spring water suddenly made the emperor's poetry come, and he couldn't help but make a pair of uplinks: the spring water in the cave flowed endlessly. Let the courtiers answer.
These courtiers have all become human spirits one by one, knowing that the emperor is happy at this time, how dare they show their talents to make the emperor unhappy, so these ministers thought for a while and then said with bitter faces that the Qianlong Emperor's couplet was really too clever, so that they had no way at all, Ji Xiaolan originally had the answer in his heart, but when he saw he and Yan, they also said that they couldn't say it.
At this time, the Qianlong Emperor was really very happy, he was once again impressed by his own talent, thinking that his talent was not ordinary, and the pair that came out of his heart was difficult for everyone, but he did not expect that at this time, a woman with a beautiful figure and full of immortality came out of the mountain and said softly: The water in the river is difficult to harvest. At once, the Qianlong Emperor's so-called eternity absolute was cracked. The emperor was very embarrassed, but he also had to admire the woman's talent.
summary
Couplets belong to a special culture in ancient Chinese, in the eyes of many talented women are a good thing to compete in wisdom and reaction ability, I don't know if everyone thinks that the Qianlong Emperor's sentence "The spring water in the cave is not endless" is really so clever? Why can't even such a great talent as Ji Xiaolan answer, if it was you at that time, can you say the next link?
