Aisin Gioro Yongyan of the Renzong of the Qing Dynasty (November 13, 1760 - September 2, 1820), whose original name was Yongyan, was the fifth emperor after the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, and the fifteenth son of Emperor Qianlong. The year name was Jiaqing, and he reigned from 1795 to 1820. Four years before his reign, Emperor Qianlong, Emperor Hongli issued an order, and Emperor Jiaqing had no real power. Only after Emperor Qianlong's death did he take power alone, punish corrupt officials Heshen, and eliminate the administration of officials.
His reign was a period of the rise of the world's industrial revolution and a period of decline in the Qing Dynasty. Internal and external troubles were one after another, the White Lotus Rebellion broke out in China, and the Qing Dynasty's rule crisis emerged. He continued to implement policies of closing the country and optimizing agriculture and suppressing commerce, which led to the Qing Dynasty's backward tide and left behind eternal regrets. The temple name is Renzong of the Qing Dynasty, and the posthumous title is Tianxing Yunfu Fuhua Suiyou Chongwen Jing Wu Guangyu Xiaogong diligent and thrifty Yingzherui Emperor, and was buried in Changling in the Western Tombs of the Qing Dynasty.
Emperor Jiaqing is a talented poet. As "the second prolific emperor poet in Chinese history", unfortunately his talent and fame were overshadowed by his father Emperor Qianlong. However, Emperor Jiaqing has rich poetry creations, second only to his father Qianlong, and his creative level is still superior. For example, I once wrote a poem that scolded corrupt officials myself. The whole poem is as follows:
All the civil and military officials in court were wearing brocade robes, and the Lu (lǚ) and Yan (yá) were in slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest slightest s
When people cry, tears fall, laughter and cry loudly from high places;
cattle and sheep give to jackals (chái) wolf shepherd, and bear all the emperor's kindness to you.
The general meaning of this poem is: all civil and military officials in the court are dressed brightly and live a luxurious life, but the common people cannot share the slightest; you have a glass of fine wine sprinkled with thousands of people's blood and sweat, and several bowls of soup condense the ointment of thousands of families. When people cry, even God is sad and crying. The more you indulge in pleasure, the deeper the disasters in the people will be, the higher the crying. You are like cruel wolves who treat the people as cattle and sheep. You have let down the great emperor's grace, and you really don't know that the earth is thick and the sky is high. This poem shows that Emperor Jiaqing was angry and cursed happily, which is rarely seen in the emperor's poems.
Interestingly, Emperor Jiaqing may be missed by the Taiwanese people because of the suppression of Cai Qian, the pirate who was rampant in the Taiwan Strait, maintaining the security of the Taiwan Strait, and establishing the Karmalan rule. This is why Emperor Jiaqing travels to Taiwan is the legend of "Jiaqing Jun traveling to Taiwan". It is rumored that Emperor Jiaqing had traveled to Taiwan when he was the crown prince, especially many famous places and historical sites in central and southern Taiwan. It has become tourist attractions because of his visit to Emperor Jiaqing. It even has some local flavored snacks. It is also rumored that Emperor Jiaqing has tasted them and became famous.
However, according to research, Jiaqingjun went to Taiwan in his life, and the first statement that "Jiaqingjun traveled to Taiwan" appeared was a rumor report on the "Daily New News" in 1905 (the 31st year of Guangxu). Taiwan's TV broadcast "Jiaqing Jun Travels to Taiwan" in the 1960s, setting a high rating.
