What is the real ending of Ji Xiaolan in history?

Ji Xiaolan finally got a happy ending and lived for more than 80 years. His life spanned three dynasties: Yongzheng, Qianlong and Jiaqing, and his life span was very long. As a civil servant, he has been engaged in literary creation almost all his life.

When I first met Ji Xiaolan, I knew him from the TV series Ji Xiaolan with Iron Teeth and Copper Teeth. There are several TV dramas, which were particularly popular in previous years, and local TV stations broadcast them in cycles. It tells the story between Emperor Qianlong, Ji Xiaolan and Xiao Shenyang. Ji Xiaolan, starring Zhang Guoli, is simple and humorous. He always opposes traitor Xiao Shenyang and always exposes his shortcomings. Many interesting storylines happened, which made him look relaxed and happy. In fact, this is not entirely the case in history.

Ji Xiaolan's real name is Ji Yun, and Xiaolan is his word. The real Ji Xiaolan in history is particularly ugly, and he is short-sighted and stutters. The record of his appearance in the history books is that he is short, dark, thin, even a little rickety and a heavy smoker. He carries a big tobacco pouch everywhere, and only eats meat instead of meals. He can eat 5 Jin of meat at a meal, which is very lewd and has many women. It's not reflected in these TV plays, is it? The TV series beautifies Ji Xiaolan too much. The age difference between Ji Xiaolan and Shenyang is about 30 years old, and Shenyang is very young, which is not reflected in the TV series at all.

Ji Xiaolan and Xiao Shenyang forgot each other and helped each other, but Ji Xiaolan didn't participate in corruption in Xiao Shenyang, which is consistent with TV series. Ji Xiaolan is humorous, but it is not entirely true that he is an absolute loyal minister. He was also sent to Urumqi by Emperor Qianlong because of his mistakes. Later, because the imperial court wanted to write books, Liu Yong pleaded with Emperor Qianlong to let Ji Xiaolan return to the imperial court.
