Qianlong went south and casually said the first part. Ji Xiaolan said the first part was vulgar, so what did he think of the second part?

The world is so big that I want to see it.

This sentence once became popular on the internet, and it also aroused people's hot discussion, which made many people who worked tirelessly day and night for their lives burst into tears. Yes, the world is wonderful, but life is even more helpless. How many people can go out for a walk regardless?

Obviously, most people can't do whatever they want. If you can, congratulations, because you really live for yourself.

Nowadays, people are still like this. It goes without saying that fewer people can do whatever they want, and even the whole world can't live a happy life in live high. With such a person, you can collect all the resources in the world for your own use.

It is the emperor.

Having said that, some people may retort that the ancient emperors did not follow their inclinations. If courtiers become powerful and become puppet emperors, their lives will not be as good as those of ordinary people. Although there is some truth in this statement, there are not many puppet emperors in history after all. Although they have suffered mentally, at least they can be guaranteed in life.

If you were looking for a person with the highest happiness index among feudal emperors, who would you choose?

I will choose Emperor Qianlong. As for the reasons, first, he lived for a long time, and second, he enjoyed the prosperity of the world, especially in his later years, so that western countries caught up with and surpassed the comprehensive national strength of the Qing Dynasty, which was still dreaming.

During the Qianlong period, he often went to the south of the Yangtze River, especially in winter, and went to the south with mild climate. That is absolutely a beautiful thing, which perfectly explains the inner world of Emperor Qianlong: I want to enjoy the size of my territory.

Since going south, there will naturally be many accompanying officials, and Ji Xiaolan, as a gifted scholar, is naturally among the accompanying officials. Once, he went to the south to eat and drink delicious food, and casually said, "One cup, two cups, three cups are not drunk."

Hearing this, Ji Xiaolan said, it is not difficult to go online. Let's see what kind of classic bottom line Ji Xiaolan has made.

Gan Long: Beauty is beauty, and drunkenness is drunkenness. In the Qing dynasty, the capital was far away in the north, and the cold wind in winter could freeze people into popsicles. Rao is the Forbidden City, which has all kinds of heating facilities and is very cold, so the tradition of private visits by the emperor has been popular at that time. Kangxi, as we all know, is Gan Long's grandfather and a master who likes to go south.

After all, Jiangnan has a different charm from the north, regardless of local conditions and customs. On one occasion, Qianlong took a group of people down to the south of the Yangtze River and experienced different customs along the way. Really happy.

Wherever you go, you have to eat. Ganlong and his party are hungry and looking for a place to eat. This group of people came to a restaurant. Needless to say, the restaurant was full of people and the wine was overflowing. Ganlong was also in a good mood when he saw his subjects living and working in peace and contentment.

After dinner, Qianlong felt that this scene should be a poem, but he still wrote the first part:

One, two or three glasses of wine are not drunk.

Perhaps in Qianlong's view, it is also good to take the opportunity to test the talents of accompanying officials. So, how about this couplet? Actually, it is good, because it is reasonable and harmonious to use the number 123 to describe the situation in the restaurant coherently and vividly, and to outline people's enjoyment incisively and vividly.

Ji Xiaolan: Being uneducated is terrible. Seeing the courtiers around my bottom allied heard the emperor's top allied, they naturally began to rack their brains to make a beautiful bottom allied, but they thought a lot and couldn't think of it, so they turned their attention to Ji Xiaolan who was munching on meat. After all, as gifted scholars, they cannot leave the position of emperor.

Ji Xiaolan saw that everyone was looking at himself, and naturally he couldn't just eat or drink, but he felt that the first work of Emperor Qianlong was not good and tacky, but he dared not say so directly. Instead, after a little thinking, he made a stunning fourth one:

A hundred birds crow and everything revives.

Formally, this couplet is very neat, and "100 million" is much better than "123" in both quantity and domineering.

Some people may say that this artistic conception is wrong, not an occasion, and it cannot be called a classic.

Actually, it wasn't, because it was winter, and after winter, it was spring. A hundred birds crow and everything recovers, which can be said to be synonymous with spring, so it can be said to be right in artistic conception.

Emperor Qianlong listened to Ji Xiaolan's bottom allied and applauded. Although some people have beaten the face of Qianlong in talent, after all, as his own courtiers, he is so talented, and the face of Emperor Qianlong is also bright. Plus he was very happy at that time, so naturally he didn't think so much, and he didn't care that Ji Xiaolan's bottom line was better than his own.

Gan Long: I wrote 40,000 poems in my life. Who else? For this story, many people think it is untrue. Perhaps in my impression, not many monarchs would like to write poems and couplets except Li Yu, the late ruler who was good at writing ci.

In fact, Emperor Qianlong was a man who liked to write poems. According to incomplete statistics of later generations, Qianlong wrote 40,000 poems in his life. Is this number large?

Of course, Qianlong lived for 89 years, a total of about 32,485 days, and then he wrote poems for more than ten years except when he was young. In other words, after being able to write poems, Qianlong wrote 1-2 poems almost every day. He was really an emperor who liked to write.

Li Bai, the poet most admired by later generations, has collected more than 1000 poems in his Complete Works alone. Of course, it does not rule out that many poems have not been handed down, but it is estimated that it is difficult to surpass Qianlong in number.

But in terms of quality, the poems written by Qianlong really make people beg to differ, because many of his poems are not catchy at all, let alone admirable, because they are more like diaries written by Qianlong in his daily life.

On the other hand, of all the poems written by Gan Long, is it true that none of them is remembered?

Actually, there is another song. This song is the only one among more than 40,000 songs that has been selected as a Chinese textbook for primary schools. The content is:

One by one, two, three, four or five. Six dollars, seven dollars, and eight or nine dollars are all missing when flying into the reed flower.

It is worth mentioning that the last sentence with artistic conception was not written by Gan Long. Some people say that this is made up by Ji Xiaolan, while others say that this is made up by Liu Yong. It doesn't matter. What is important is that it has now become the "masterpiece" of Emperor Qianlong.

So, do you have a more subtle bottom line for this long-term top line? Try a pair ~
