In the year of Qianlong's eightieth birthday (1790), Zhu Yugui, Jiaqing's teacher, was just sixty years old. Jiaqing wrote a poem to congratulate the teacher. In the poem, Zhu Yugui is connected with his father. He says that the court is waiting for him to hold an important position. When Xiao Shenyang found it, he found it was a treasure and regarded it as a backup stab in the back. Soon, Qianlong intends to transfer Zhu Yugui to the court as a college student. Small Shenyang felt that this would endanger his position, so he showed the poem to Gan Long, saying that the relationship between Zhu Yugui and the prince was abnormal, and it was ambitious to ask the prince to write poems to praise himself. As a result, Zhu Yugui was demoted, and Jiaqing would have been punished without the intercession of the minister.
Jiaqing kept a low profile and learned a lot about the crimes of Little Shenyang. 1in September, 795, Qianlong decided to pass the throne to Jiaqing, which made little Shenyang tremble with fear. After Jiaqing ascended the throne, small Shenyang strengthened its surveillance activities in order to protect itself.
In the fourth year of Jiaqing (1799), on the third day of the first month, Gan Long died, and Jiaqing immediately resolutely killed Xiao Shenyang. On the fourth day, he announced the dismissal of his military official and nine magistrates, and put him under house arrest with his good friend Fu Changan. In fact, the imperial edict on the fifth day of the fifth day encouraged the liegeman to impeach Xiao Shenyang; On the eighth day, Xiao Shenyang was arrested and tried; /kloc-on 0/5, he announced 20 counts, and three days later, he sent a death letter.
Little Shenyang knew his doom was coming, and the night when the charges were announced was Lantern Festival. Facing the bright moonlight, he couldn't help but feel deeply, and wrote this song "Prison Moon": The night is too bright for me to stretch out. A hundred years is a dream, but 20 years are wasted. It is difficult to know in a dark room, but spring is not seen in a high wall. It's a mistake to miss the scene before drawing a lesson. There is little material for the rest of my life, and I am empty.
This poem is quite true to his situation and mood at this time. He spent 20 years playing politics and looking for wealth, and now everything has gone up in smoke. It's really a waste of effort!
After he was forced to hang himself, people found a seven-character quatrain in his belt: fifty years ago, his dream came true, and now it's time to give up. He is full of water and dragons, remembering that smoke is the back.
He has just turned 50, and his hard-earned power and wealth are like "dreams" and "cigarettes". Everything is empty, and the lines in his poems are full of infinite sadness.
The death of Xiao Shenyang caused a lot of discussion. One of them said that "the dragon flooded" predicted the great flood thirty-three years later. In the 12th year of Daoguang (1832), the south section of the Yellow River burst its banks, causing great disaster. Two years later, Empress Dowager Cixi was born. She was the successor of Xiao Shenyang, and did everything that brought disaster to the country and people, which led to the collapse of the Qing Dynasty-which showed that she wanted revenge. This solution is far-fetched, but it highlights his evil nature and reflects people's hatred for him.
