What kind of person is the real Heshen in history?When I accompanied my grandmother to watch "Iron Tooth Bronze Tooth Ji Xiaolan" when I was a child, my grandmother had to look twice when she cooked, and she almost caused a disaster, which shows how much this old lady loves this drama. Compared with Ji Xiaolan, my grandmother and I may prefer He Shen, especially He Shen played by Mr. Wang Gang, who is oily and smooth, random and fickle, and knows how to pat in front of Qianlong all day long, and fight wits and courage with Ji Xiaolan, but I have never been able to fight Ji Xiaolan, and I felt that I was really happy at the time. In fact, the real history of He Shen is a very powerful person, he has always been in an important position, if he doesn't do business all day, Emperor Qianlong will not rely on him so much, today let's talk about He Shen. He Shen's father Chang Bao was the deputy governor of Fujian Province, and He Shen was supposed to grow up as a middle class, but the world was changeable, and so was He Shen's fate. When He Shen was three years old, his mother died in childbirth in order to give birth to his younger brother He Lin, and when He Shen was nine years old, his father died of illness in Fujian, causing He Shen's family to decline. 
For ordinary people, in order to enter the official career, they have to pass the selection of the imperial examination, and He Shen is even more so, he has to work harder than ordinary people in order to change the fate of himself and his younger brother. He Shen not only studied the Four Books and Five Classics, but also learned Manchu, Mongolian, Tibetan and other languages, and added extra homework to himself, learning Qianlong calligraphy and Qianlong poetry, because of hard study and extremely talented, so he was successfully admitted to the highest school at that time, Xian'an Palace Official School, and has always been appreciated by the teacher. Although He Shen unfortunately lost his name to Sun Shan in the imperial examination, with his family background and the relationship between his father-in-law, He Shen still embarked on a career and was first awarded a third-class guard. By Qianlong's side, He Shen finally won Qianlong's favor, especially in terms of financial management, but also won Qianlong's appreciation, so far, He Shen's official position began to rise like a rocket, and Shen has been in an important position all his life, whether it is a civil official or a military attaché, He Shen has served as a rich resume, in the late reign of Emperor Qianlong, it is even more powerful, it can be said that it is under one person, above ten thousand people. 
Why was He Shen, who was under one person and above 10,000 people, executed as soon as Qianlong died?However, it is such a character, shortly after Qianlong's death, he was executed by Emperor Jiaqing, about why Jiaqing wanted to execute He Shen. First, Qianlong always valued He Shen during his reign, and He Shen relied on Qianlong's favor, and did not even look at the prince in his eyes, in the late Qianlong period, his power swelled, and many people stammered He Shen and called him the "second emperor", which is already a well-known secret. Emperor Jiaqing ascended the throne, almost an empty shell emperor, and the power was almost concentrated in the hands of He Shen, how could Emperor Jiaqing let his own rights be in the hands of the opposite sex, so after Emperor Jiaqing ascended the throne, he first had to get more from the hands of He Shen. And He Shen was more famous than Emperor Jiaqing at that time, it can be said that the world only knows that there is Heshen, but does not know that there is Emperor Jiaqing, so Emperor Jiaqing had to kill He Shen in order to be able to smoothly grasp power in the future. Second, Emperor Jiaqing has just ascended the throne, and he also needs to stabilize the dynasty, win people's hearts, and make some achievements, so he needs to suppress an important minister to complete this goal. Fifteen days after Qianlong's death, Emperor Jiaqing announced Heshen's 20 charges to let the world know the true face of Heshen, and Emperor Jiaqing needed the world to recognize himself, just like the original belief in Heshen, unconditionally recognizing his status as emperor. Emperor Jiaqing gave death to Heshen three days later, so killing chickens and monkeys, the ministers knew Heshen's personality and did not dare to disobey Emperor Jiaqing. 
Third, the amount of money in Heshen ** was so large that Emperor Jiaqing was later moved. After He Shen's death, the money found was equivalent to the fiscal revenue of the Qing Dynasty for fifteen years. Emperor Jiaqing naturally took a fancy to this income, which could make up for the deficit in the treasury. After He Shen's death, why did Jiaqing let go of his son and concubine?In fact, there were many comrades in Heshen at that time, but Emperor Jiaqing did not investigate, but limited himself to Heshen alone, because he leaned towards the government and the opposition, arrogant and domineering, the so-called "gun shot the first bird", so that Heshen and these same parties were all carrying their tails to behave, and Emperor Jiaqing gave Heshen to death, which was enough to set an example. When dealing with Yi Jiang'a, the governor of Shandong of Heshen's party, the charges listed were that when Qianlong died, Yijiang'a wrote a letter to Heshen, persuading Heshen to mourn, but for Jiaqing, he only asked for peace and was asked: "I only know that there is Heshen alone, I don't know that there is an imperial examination on weekdays, and I don't know that there is a mere today." It can be seen that when Yijiang A was dealt with at that time, it was because he only respected Heshen and did not respect the current emperor, didn't he recognize Emperor Jiaqing?Then what does Emperor Jiaqing leave you for, then he can only deal with you. 
He Shen has a son named Fengshen Yinde, who is Qianlong's favorite daughter of the tenth princess, according to the tradition of cutting grass and roots, Emperor Jiaqing is bound to kill Fengshen Yinde, but Jiaqing sees that Fengshen Yinde has always done his duty and has not made mistakes, so he did not kill him, but just dismissed him for reflection. Because of the help of the tenth princess and because of Fengshen Yinde's talent, a few years later, Fengshen Yinde was promoted. The historical He Shen is not like a middle-aged greasy uncle played by Mr. Wang Gang in "Ji Xiaolan with Iron Teeth and Bronze Teeth", but on the contrary, he is a handsome and cultured person, he is very gentle and takes care of her concubine. He had a total of one wife and eight concubines, his wife Feng Jiwen died when He Shen was in full swing, and the other concubines were exempted from capital crimes with the permission of Emperor Jiaqing after the fall of He Shen, and most of them lived their lives incognito. It's just that there are two few martyrs for He Shen, that is, Cardamom and Wu Qinglian. 
Cardamom is a Qinglou woman, Wu Qinglian is a talented woman in Jiangnan, the difference between the identities of the two is huge, but they are both martyred for Heshen, it can be seen that both of them are strong people, and it can also be seen that both of them have paid true feelings for Heshen, if I were Heshen, I would also feel that this life is worth it. He Shen has really experienced great sorrows and joys, winds and waves in his life, but fortunately, He Shen fought for himself, changed his childhood fate, and lived a rich life, and he was also loved by two people with deep affection in his life, I think his life is worth it.
