"Everyone has a point, but the facts are here, and they have already happened, and if you change, I still have to talk about the future direction."

"Emperor Jiaqing never considers the problem from the actual situation, nor does he see the essence through the phenomenon, although he is diligent, decisive and serious, but I think Jiaqing was not born to be an emperor."

"If it is changed to Qianlong or Yongzheng, as long as someone violates their rights and interests, they can immediately execute them, this is something that many emperors will choose, but Emperor Jiaqing did not."

"From the perspective of governing the country, the emperor died after four years on the throne before he took over the ruling power, but he resolutely got rid of Heshen, which shows the depth of his city government and rich political experience."

"Emperor Jiaqing hated corruption, but for one day of the reign of Emperor Taishang, he endured it for a day, and his forbearance skills were profound, and finally waited until the day he came out, and it was done."

"In addition, to quell the rebellion of the White Lotus Sect and govern Caoyun, it cannot be denied that Emperor Jiaqing is also a Ming monarch who works hard, works diligently and loves the people."

"But his character and education limited his statecraft."

Emperor Jiaqing adhered to the holy precepts of "moderation" and "respect for heaven and ancestors", did not dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool, and did not have the motivation and courage to reform. ”

"It can be said that Emperor Jiaqing is the most virtuous of the Qing Emperors."

"Emperor Jiaqing is like a Buddhist, a little desireless, and does not leave a little space for personal enjoyment."

"Even when I went to the Mulan paddock to hunt, it was completely out of the need to abide by the ancestral system, not because I liked to hunt."

"He strictly followed the time and route of his ancestors, did not deviate at all, and immediately rushed back to see the folds after tying two things, and never delayed for a moment because of the beautiful scenery."

"Lust seems to him the most dangerous thing."

"Throughout his life, he has never been fascinated by sound, playfulness, and bad habits."

"It seems that he is also the most humane emperor of the Qing Dynasty except Kangxi."

"Emperor Jiaqing is also very kind-hearted, and he is also very good at using small details to show his love and warmth, creating an image of a pro-people and benevolent emperor for himself."

"Every time he goes out on patrol, as long as he encounters people stopping the sedan chair and shouting a complaint, he will stop, inquire carefully, and instruct the relevant officials to handle it quickly."

Emperor Jiaqing once said, "If the common people dare to stop the sedan chair, then there must be a relatively large grievance, and no matter how tired they are, they must deal with it in time." ”

"When he toured Shengjing in the east, he even personally interrogated civil cases and made decisions for the people."

Judging by these things, he is a "benevolent king"! ”

"One year, Yang Yi, the governor of Hubei, returned to Beijing to meet the emperor, and it was a scorching summer, and the emperor was waving a fan."

"As soon as he saw Yang Yi come in, the emperor immediately put the fan aside and asked him in great detail about the situation in the place, although he sweated like rain and soaked through the robe, the emperor did not pick up the fan again."

"Because according to the system, ministers are not allowed to wave fans in front of the emperor, so the emperor would rather share weal and woe with ministers."

"When Yang wrote about this in his memoirs in his later years, he was still moved to tears."

"Emperor Jiaqing's heart can be said to be very fine."

"Soon after he became in power, he issued an edict saying that Emperor Qianlong had given some high-ranking ministers special treatment for riding horses in the Forbidden City."

"However, the Manchu and Han ministers were different, the Manchurian and Mongol ministers were usually used to riding horses, but the Han ministers rarely knew how to ride horses."

"Therefore, he specially issued an edict stipulating that the Han ministers who enjoyed the treatment of riding horses in the Forbidden City, especially those who were old and weak or infirm, could ride to the Forbidden City."

"Even in one of his most brutal performances, there was still an element of warmth."

Although he was very angry with Hong Liangji's twists and turns, after Hong Liangji was imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department, he still did not forget to send a eunuch to the Criminal Department to convey the sentence "Scholars are not allowed to move the punishment", so that the Criminal Department would treat this political prisoner well. ”

This sentence moved Hong Liangji for a lifetime.

"During his reign of more than 20 years, Emperor Jiaqing has maintained a good political style."

"Even if it is not said that Emperor Jiaqing is the most diligent emperor of the Qing Dynasty, it must be said that it is one of them."

"He has won the true inheritance of Emperor Qianlong, and his life is as accurate as a clock."

"In his twenty-five years of reign, there was not a day that he did not wake up early."

"After reading the record, it is often not yet dawn, and he will read the recital with a candle."

"He took care of everything, summoned ministers after breakfast, often as many as more than ten people, reviewed dozens of pieces, and was often so busy that he forgot to eat lunch."

When he went out on patrol, he had to get up a few minutes earlier and finish the day's business in advance.

In this regard, he has the style of his grandfather, Emperor Yongzheng, who is a "career maniac". ”

"The habit of a lot of mental work every day developed during the prince's time has made work his first need."

"If he doesn't work for a day and doesn't take care of politics, he will feel uncomfortable."

"One day in the middle of Jiaqing, he got up early to attend a sacrificial ceremony, and after the ceremony was completed, it was only ten o'clock in the morning, and he decided to return to the Qianqing Palace to meet the minister."

"Unexpectedly, when I asked the imperial guard, the guard said that there were no officials who asked for a meeting today, and the emperor was a little suspicious, why was he so free today?"

"As soon as I asked the military plane, I learned that there were originally several ministers who wanted to do something, but Prince Rui considered that the emperor was already very tired from attending the ceremony, and the weather was very hot, so in order to let the emperor save money, he privately arranged for them to be introduced the next day."

Upon learning of this, Emperor Jiaqing was furious.

He rebuked Prince Rui and said: I am forty years old, although I have every opportunity, I never do this as a labor, and it is not enough to introduce such a few people.

Prince Rui is so bold and changes the date of the official introduction without authorization, what is his intention? "After some reprimand, he was handed over to the Zongren Mansion for strict punishment, and Prince Rui's kindness was not reciprocated, and he was demoted and fined."

Unlike other emperors, others have "no beginning, and no end", but Emperor Jiaqing has never been tired. ”

"His patience and perseverance are unparalleled in ancient and modern times."

"Until his death, he still maintained such professionalism and did not slack off."

"After his death, the ministers of the DPRK and China were full of nostalgia for him."

"Frugality was also the quality of Emperor Jiaqing's life, and he remembered the lessons of his father's later years, and he always hated extravagance and waste."

"In the sixteenth year of Jiaqing, on the emperor's fifty-first birthday, the imperial history Jingde played according to the practice of the previous emperor, and performed a drama in the capital for ten days when the emperor was on his birthday, and asked him to take this as an example every year in the future."

"Jiaqing was furious, and said: Since I became in power, I have only thought about the people's livelihood and weal and woe, and I have never been extravagant, and I really want to hold a big celebration, and you, as a speech official, should also discourage it, but Jingde is playing this kind of thing, which is really infuriating."
