    Thank you very much for sharing the history of Emperor Qianlong's daughters. Often times, we only see what all the different drama series show us. It's wonderful to learn about them and a bit on the relationship they had with their father.

    I watched a Chinese program about emperor Qianlong and his adult kids. My take on He Shen from watching this show and reading some history about him is that he was very close to the emperor and became very wealthy, and may have been a bit corrupt (who wasn’t back then) . After Qianlong died, emperor Jiaqing was afraid of the power He Shen held and had to get rid of him. Guess you can’t blame a young emperor facing an adversary like that.

    • @ancientchinesehistorychannel
      @ancientchinesehistorychannel  2 года назад +1

      That’s because I want to talk about He Shen when I talk about how Qianlong get the money? are you curious whether Qianlong know or not know He Shen’s behavior? About the relationship between Jiaqing and He Shen, it’s really complicated, not only He Shen’s power. In Qing dynasty, the emperor’s power was highly centralized. I don’t think a government officer’s power could threat an emperor’s power.

      @@ancientchinesehistorychannel that’s not what I’ve read. There have been times in the Ming dynasty where the eunuchs almost overthrew the emperor. And eunuchs were the bottom of 5he barrel in Chinese culture. Qianlong was getting old. Maybe he didn’t know everything that was going on but he valued he shen according to historical accounts. Also qianlongs daughter married he shens son, did she not? A little complication there too. Doesn’t matter now. It was a long time ago. I doubt any of us will ever know the truth. It’s just too bad that after jiaqing took the throne the empire started to go down hill. It wasn’t all his fault, or maybe none of it was his fault. His father was a spendthrift and left the government broke. Jiaqing had uprisings and famines and then later when daoguang was emperor the British dumped opium on China which was a terrible thing to do. Then the taiping rebellion, and then the European monarchies nibbling bits and pieces off of the country. It’s too bad they didn’t modernize like Japan did. Anyway, . I believe the Manchu made China the greatest empire on earth. Plus they had the most beautiful clothing. I love their robes.

    • @ancientchinesehistorychannel
      @ancientchinesehistorychannel  2 года назад +3

      In Ming dynasty, the eunuchs did have powers, but I don’t think they had chance to takeover the emperor. In Ming Dynasty, the emperors supported the government officers and the eunuchs, and let them fight each other to balance the court. Ming Dynasty had two invisible emperors, who did meet the government officers for years, but they still controlled the court. The was a sentence called 崖山以后无中国, means after Song Dynasty, the ancient Chinese culture was finished. I agree. Because you can see started from Yuan, the style of ruling the country was so different. Ming followed Yuan more than other traditional Chinese dynasties. In my opinion, Qing started to go downside in Qianlong’s time. Qianlong did lots of things that made China have no chance to be great in the world wide.

    excelent video as always. Did Qialong had more than one poster daughter? you should do a video about foster sons and daughters of the emperors in qing dinasty. And one other question could a empress (not dowager) have a foster son/daughter that she choose not from other consorts. By example in Ruyi's royal love in the palace, she told her maid suoshin and her future husband the imperial doctor that when they have kids they should bring them to the palace to be her fosters kids, could that be possible?

    There has been many portrayals of He Shen in TV dramas but the 2003 version I feel is the most correct one. He Shen is incorrectly depicted as evil and corrupt but that may the work (historical distortion) of Jiaqing which hated He Shen a lot. While he may have been somewhat corrupt, most of his wealth were gifts from Qianlong and not ill gotten.

      The tenth princess gave birth a son, who died at 2. Then her husband had two daughters with his concubines. At least, because the princess Hexiao and her husband didn’t have son, the emperor Jiaqing adopted a son for her.

      There weren’t records about this.

Be honestly, I am really surprised 😲.

And all the other diseases that killed people in the west. I like to think their hygiene evolved from the time of Genghis khan and his hoard who never bathed for some strange superstition and wore their clothes until they literally fell off. Lol.
