"Myopia" Ji Xiaolan was denounced as a prostitute by Qianlong, which was a deep insult to her personality
Ji Xiaolan was very famous in the 1990s. In this TV series, Ji Xiaolan is played by Zhang Guoli and Xiao Shenyang is played by Wang Gang. But in fact, Ji Xiaolan in history was ugly and short-sighted, while Xiao Shenyang was a beautiful man. According to historical records, Ji Xiaolan is 26 years older than Xiao Shenyang. They had different political views and often mocked each other in their poems, but politically, there was not much confrontation. Ji Xiaolan often reminds Xiao Shenyang in life, and Xiao Shenyang takes care of Ji Xiaolan at work, which is very different from the plot of today's TV series.
Ji Xiaolan, a native of Aqing, was a writer praised by Confucius as "studious". He was born in the second year of Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty and was called a "child prodigy" when he was young. At the age of 21, he was the top scholar in the middle school. At the age of 24, he was admitted to the top school with the fourth place in the second grade of junior high school. He first became a concubine in the Hanlin Academy, and was later promoted to You Shuzi and took charge of the Prince's Mansion. When he was in Qianlong, he was given more favors and was appointed as the general comptroller of Sikuquanshu. He was in charge for 13 years. It is an important reference book for studying Chinese literature and history. Ji Xiaolan was also promoted from Cabinet Bachelor to Minister of Rites. He took charge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate five times in his life. When Ji Xiaolan was 80 years old, she went to a joint university, had the title of Prince Shaobao, and became an Imperial College Imperial College student. Ji Xiaolan died in the 10th year of Jiaqing at the age of 82. Emperor Jiaqing wrote an inscription: "Sensitive and eager to learn, he can write articles and teach them to do politics."
"Sensitive" and "philosophical" can also be said to be an evaluation of Ji Xiaolan. The so-called "sensitive" means that he is studious, knowledgeable, and knows everything by heart. When he was young, he was called the "Hejian Talent" and was as famous as Yuan Mei. He is sometimes called "Northern Jinan Yuan". But he only left behind in his life a summary of the general catalog of the novel Sikuquanshu and a copy of Sikuquanshu. The reason is that Ji Xiaolan spent a lot of energy compiling the notes of Weicaotang in his middle age and wrote very little. Rich in content, highly informative, and simple and elegant in style. Many chapters reveal social contradictions and dare to criticize the shortcomings of the times, which have high ideological and academic value. Lu Xun's reputation is as follows: "Thinking of witty words, it's time to solve problems; miscellaneous research, and some insights; narrative elegant and elegant, no one can replace it in later generations." Indeed, Ji Xiaolan was promoted to an academic leader and literary leader in the Qing Dynasty.
Xie Jin, a talented man from the Ming Dynasty, was the editor-in-chief of Ji Wenda’s collection. His talent was comparable to Ji Xiaolan, but he died in prison at the age of 43. On the other hand, Ji Xiaolan enjoyed a lifetime of prosperity because of Siku Quanshu. This reason, of course, has something to do with the emperor Jie and Ji 2 faced. Yongle Emperor Zhu Di was capable, suspicious, and violent by nature, and regarded the lives of scholars as dirt; Di Long was an emperor who was good at governing the country and loved literature. This was one of the reasons why he admired talented scholars and was tolerant of their comments. The second reason is related to Ji Xiaolan's personal character. Emperor Jiaqing praised Ji Xiaolan for being "sensitive" and "moderate", while Xie Jin was sensitive but not "moderate". Many talented scholars in ancient times failed to live a good life, that is, they had no "achievement."
The so-called "da" means to understand, that is, to be reasonable; the second is to be philosophical, that is, to be happy with the current situation and open to unpleasant things. Throughout Ji Xiaolan's life, because he dared to speak out, he also aroused the jealousy of his colleagues, and the emperor was very unhappy. Xiao Shenyang had made things difficult for Ji Xiaolan several times. Fortunately, Ji Xiaolan was very witty, and always used clever words to avert danger, and made good friends with Qianlong, "like a tiger with added wings". Once, Ji Xiaolan and his colleagues were studying in the library. Because of the scorching heat, he took off his coat and read a book shirtless. Unexpectedly, Qianlong arrived suddenly. Ji Xiaolan didn't have time to get dressed, so he quickly shrank his neck and hid under the table. Qianlong had already seen that he was laughing with others on purpose. Ji Xiaolan was sweating under the table, and he couldn't bear it. He was highly myopic and asked his head: "Is the old man gone?" As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that Qianlong was sitting in front of him, cursing angrily. Ji Xiaolan calmly replied: "Old age means longevity, the head is the head of all things, and sons are called saints. Both Confucius and Mencius had sons, so long live the 'old man'." Although Ji Xiaolan had many witty words, after all, he "accompanied the tiger" to the side . He spoke out several times, and once made Qianlong furious, angrily scolded Ji Xiaolan: "Before I gave you a formal job, I thought you still had some literary foundation. In fact, I just raised you literati as prostitutes. How can you Dare to talk about national affairs boldly?" It can be seen that although Ji Xiaolan is a smart person, he is also deeply insulted by his personality.
