Emperor Qianlong

Maybe it's because Kangxi's writing was too exciting. I always felt that something was missing about Qianlong. Later I found out that it was because the Kangxi period was glorious, and the Qianlong dynasty as a whole showed signs of decline. As a person with a strong sense of national pride, it was inevitable that he was reluctant to face up to this period of history. Therefore, I felt that it was not as good as Kangxi, but overall it is still a novel worth reading.

The Ergyue River deeply embodies the creative concept of "using tragedy to create history and using art to recreate history" among Emperor Qianlong. The book writes that when Qianlong ascended the throne, what he took over from his emperor was a trembling and relatively honest bureaucracy. However, with the favor and rise of He Kun, the anti-corruption efforts made by the emperors of Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong have all become a bitter historical joke. In Qianlong's later years, his power even became a protective umbrella for He Kun and others. There is a place in the book where it is said that Qianlong's imperial chariot visited Yizheng in Jiangnan Province, and Fukang'an went to see him. He had been there twice before and was very familiar with Yizheng. When he got off the sedan chair, he was "stupefied". Why? Because it is completely unrecognizable - the silt in the moat has been completely cleared, the grass embankments have disappeared, and they have been replaced by large bluestone strips with undercover roofs, and guardrails have been added on the banks. They are "no different" from the Jinshui River outside the Forbidden City; It turned out that Qianlong's patrol was actually "a huge effort to overwhelm the country, and he only had money to spend."

The plot has ups and downs and is closely linked. The characters are flesh-and-blood, profound, lifelike, and picturesque!

The coach signed a peace treaty with the enemy, but Agui and Lemin were still kept in the dark. They have found out that Shaluoben's food, gold and silver are all on Guaerya. However, because the terrain is too dangerous, several small attacks have failed, so they have to move eastward and plan to attack from the side. However, he was temporarily blinded by Sha Luoben's firebrand and suspicious tactics. After receiving orders from Zhang Guangsi and Zheng Wenhuan for rapid reinforcements, they had no choice but to continue moving eastward. It wasn't until he exchanged fire with Shaluoben's sniper unit that he truly understood Shaluoben's intention. While the Qing soldiers were seizing the territory, they surrounded the camp of the commander Xiaojinchuan and prepared to fight to the death! They feigned attacks several times, and Shaluoben's soldiers were really brave and good at fighting, but they were all blocked by Doutou.

Meticulous and fascinating, it's like being there

The literary quality of Er Yuehe's calligraphy is top-notch, especially the Six Books of Qianlong, which are a great improvement compared to his own Kangxi. They are indeed masterpieces and treasures. However, this person overly embellishes the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, magnifying the advantages of Kangxi, Yongzheng, and Qianlong, while often covering up their shortcomings through the Spring and Autumn writing style. It is easy for readers who do not understand history to have unrealistic illusions about the Manchu and Qing dynasties. This should be noted. From my personal point of view, February River glorifies the feudal emperors too much. This is inappropriate, especially for the Qing Dynasty, a dynasty where land annexation and literary inquisition reached their peak, regardless of whether it was for literary considerations or not.

Qianlong was the emperor who actually held the highest power in the country for the longest time and the longest life in Chinese history, and created the prosperous age of Kangxi and Qianlong. After Emperor Qianlong came to the throne, he first eased the political tension caused by the Yongzheng period. In the early years of Qianlong's reign, in order to ease the tense political atmosphere, adjust conflicts, and improve relations in all aspects, major changes and adjustments were made to Yongzheng's policies. At the same time, Hongli attached great importance to the selection and inspection of officials. During this period of time, the Qing Dynasty had a sound political system and a rapid economic development.

This book is as generous as the four great classics. The author has come from all over the world to read and write, and the writing is beautiful and makes you forget to read it.

This book tells the life of Emperor Qianlong. Emperor Qianlong stood out in front of many princes, was appreciated, and finally ascended the throne. After ascending the throne, Emperor Qianlong changed his past demeanor and set up lofty ambitions to create a happy and prosperous era for the Qing Dynasty, which made the Qing Dynasty's national power unprecedentedly improved and developed. However, in his later years, the princes fought with each other, and a prosperous dynasty also continued to decline. But from this book we learned about Qianlong's policy of decentralization and checks and balances, and about the intrigues between empires.

Qianlong's writing is not as good as Kangxi and Yongzheng's and is a bit unfinished. But it's much better than others.
