[Qianlong's aesthetic taste is really different from that of his father and grandfather.]

[It is reasonable to suspect that Qianlong had a genetic mutation. Why is there such a big difference?]

[Kangxi especially loved blue and white porcelain, and he preferred blue and white with light and heavy colors. Almost every object had to have flowers, plants, rocks, and the elegance revealed the exquisite details.]

[Yongzheng preferred pure colors and emphasized simplicity. The colors were neither flattering nor superficial, and the carvings were exquisite and transparent, seeming to be there and not there, and implicit and beautiful.]

[Qianlong's style is unique, with avant-garde and gorgeous colors, and the carvings are ingenious and colorful. It even influenced the Western Rococo style.]

"Qianlong is a big hodgepodge! Northeastern hodgepodge: I feel insulted!"

"I remember seeing it before, someone gave Yongzheng a pearl flower bonsai, which was a golden flowerpot with carved dragons and painted phoenixes, and planted in it were artificial flowers and trees made of various pearls and gems. Yongzheng felt bad when he saw it, so he kept it in the storeroom. But when it came to Qianlong, they all showed it off [laughing to death]"

"Kangxi made money, Yongzheng saved money, Qianlong spent money...

Is this the legendary saying that wealth cannot last more than three years? "

"The large vase with various glaze colors of Qianlong was for showing off. From the perspective of craftsmanship, it can even be said to be a miracle that is difficult to replicate. But knowing this does not prevent me from laughing at his aesthetic taste, which is very conspicuous [doge][doge][doge]"

"Emperor Qianlong's aesthetic is very similar to that of a certain Chinese haute couture designer who has been hyped up to the top. Her works are all complicated and look magnificent, but in fact they are top-heavy and have no aesthetic appeal."

"I used to see others complaining about the aesthetics of the Qing Dynasty. Now I know that it was not the Qing Dynasty's fault, but Qianlong's fault alone."

"All the accumulation before the Qing Dynasty was accumulated by Emperor Qianlong. Only flowers and brocade can show the prosperity of the times [snickering R]. Without splendor, how can we show the achievements of Emperor Qianlong who was fond of showing off his achievements?"

"Qianlong inherited his concubine mother Hua Fei's aesthetic taste, "Life should be vigorous and magnificent [snickering R]""

“I feel that people with low aesthetic tastes in real life are all optimists, happy all day long, and don’t take anything to heart.

Emperor Qianlong should be such a person. He wrote tens of thousands of poems throughout his life. Although his level is not satisfactory, he always loved to "visit" famous calligraphy and paintings.

Putting politics aside, in terms of personal charm, he should be a very cheerful old man. "

The emperors before the Qing Dynasty could not appreciate Qianlong's unique style, but they were envious of the bright colors on the porcelain and really wanted to know how those colors were obtained!

The common people below don't care about these things, especially those in colder areas.

I love Qianlong's aesthetic taste so much that I keep praising the colorful flower pots and vases. There are all kinds of flowers, plants, fish and insects, all in red and prosperous. It looks so festive and blessed!

You can tell at a glance that they are very wealthy and blessed! If they were rich, they would do the same!

Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty.

Listening to the mocking voices, Qianlong and Hongli no longer had the leisure to compose poetry.

His aesthetics, his self-esteem, his soul, all his beauty was destroyed by this group of later generations!!!

He now really wishes he could be born in the future to put those villains who spoke nonsense and insulted his great image in literary inquisition!

No! I was so angry that I was confused. Why should he go to the afterlife?

Those traitorous thieves should be sent to him!!!

……

Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty.

Yongzheng was speechless. Why did his son's vision become so confusing?

If nothing unexpected happens, his successor will most likely be that kid Hongli!

But Hongli seemed to be very serious and hardworking. His behavior was also good, and he was praised by his father.

Is this really Hongli?

Can such an emperor who loves wealth and luxury, and who enjoys fancy entertainment, really shoulder the responsibility of being the ruler of a country?

In his opinion, the emperor loved luxurious things so much, but what about the people below? Would they follow suit and become even more corrupt? Such a luxurious and prosperous era was like a flash in the pan, and under the gorgeous outer robes were full of greedy termites, gnawing at the foundation of the Qing Dynasty.

His thoughts drifted further and further away, thinking of the remaining silver in the treasury before his father's death, thinking of Li Longji of the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty...

He was still testing Hongli's character, if he couldn't change it. Yinzhen clenched his fists, the surroundings were silent, he seemed to see something in the air, and finally made up his mind.

Or, consider the candidate for the crown prince carefully again.
