Doing homework is a lot of jokes.

Dragon was an accomplished monarch in Qing Dynasty, which played an important role in the prosperous period of Kanggan, and made certain contributions to safeguarding national unity, promoting the development of cultural and educational undertakings, and maintaining social stability. But as an autocratic monarch, surrounded by flattery for a long time, it is inevitable that he thinks highly of himself and falls into jokes unconsciously. Long wrote more than 43,000 poems in his life, more than all the Tang poems. Assuming that he can write poems from birth, he will write 1.34 poems every day on average. His works can only be flat, piled and carved. Later generations seldom regard him as a poet, but he feels good about himself. He posted his poems on stones everywhere, hoping to spread them to future generations.

Besides writing poems, he also writes plays, but not many people know about it. In 793, Magney visited China and hoped to establish trade relations with China, which Gan Long attached great importance to. Previously, after the Nebuchadnezzar War, the Qing army defeated Russia, and the two sides established trade through tribute. Gan Long also hopes to deal with Britain in this way.

In order to make the British envoys dumbfounded, Qianlong took pains to tell them to be on strict guard along the way and prohibit the personnel of the mission from contacting the people, giving them an impression that the Qing Dynasty was particularly severe. In order to intimidate each other, the West Building of Yuanmingyuan was specially designated as a reception place. The West Building was designed by Lang Shining, with Western-style architecture as the main body, which is particularly magnificent, which shows that the Qing Dynasty was everywhere. However, when Macartney arrived at the West Building, he was not particularly surprised, which discouraged Gan Long.

The focus of the argument with Magalny is whether to use the bow-down ceremony. In fact, Gan Long is not a conformist. Before accepting Magalny's mission, he specially told the Russian mission not to bow, but to use Russian etiquette. He also ordered diplomats sent to Russia to kneel and knock on the door nine times when they saw the czar. In Qianlong's mind, there has always been an idea that anything can be relaxed as long as the other party expresses obedience, and he would rather have a lower attitude. If the other side does not surrender, he will do everything possible to make the other side surrender.

In order to make Macartney kneel, Ganlong tried his best to influence the barbarians in England. Art is the most convincing. So, he set out to write a Kunqu opera script, named "Four Seas Uprising", which was starred by Wenchang Emperor, Four Seas Dragon King, tripterygium wilfordii and Dian Mu in turn, and finally subdued the disruptive turtle. The whole play ends with the gods singing "It's really a Millennium of Peace in the Four Seas".

The play was staged on the day of the banquet, with eight 5-hour performances. The play is very big, but Magalny doesn't understand it at all. He saw many animals on the sea and land and thought he was praising the marriage between the mainland and the sea. Many of Long's plays, such as Kunqu Opera "Eight Shu Dance Jade Pavilion", praise him for pacifying the western frontier. He not only writes, but also often revises and comments on folk dramas, and tries to correct them when he encounters forbidden words.

Interestingly, the Four Seas Uprising stole two editions for court performances in the last years of Jiaqing and Guangxu. They are indispensable songs to praise virtue. If the script is not well written, the publicity effect will naturally not be achieved. Maadyr finally refused to kowtow, and China lost a rare historical opportunity. However, Gan Long did not lose. In his words, "China is rich in products and everything, so we don't need foreign goods to provide needed goods". Powerful as it is, it's a stupid remark.
