In some TV dramas, Xiao Shenyang and Ji Xiaolan seem to be enemies. In fact, there is not much overlap between them in history, and the age difference is in their twenties. Ji Xiaolan was a famous minister in the early and middle period of Qianlong, and his greatest contribution was to compile Sikuquanshu. As for whether he is an official or not, it is hard to say. But judging from the yamen he is in charge of, it's probably not bad. Small Shenyang was the slaughter assistant in the middle and late Qianlong period, and was in charge of many departments. In the late Qianlong period, one person was below and more than 10,000 people were well deserved.

Because of the age gap between Xiao Shenyang and Ji Xiaolan, they won't be bitter rivals who laugh and scold like on TV. If there is any relationship between them, they should be regarded as different friends, right? ! After all, Ji Xiaolan is a subordinate of Little Shenyang, and they have the same hobby in painting and calligraphy tasting, so they should be regarded as bosom friends in this respect, not bitter rivals. The real enemy of Xiao Shenyang is actually Zhu Gui.

Zhu Gui is the teacher of Emperor Ding 'an. He is honest and upright, detests evil as hatred, and hates people like Little Shenyang. Therefore, he opposed corrupt officials headed by Xiao Shenyang almost all his life. Zhu Gui was the teacher of Emperor Jiaqing before his death, but because Xiao Shenyang stood on the wrong side of the Crown Prince, Zhu Gui seized the opportunity and secretly taught Jiaqing to hide his strength, because he expected that after the death of Qianlong, the charges of this mess would be laid on Xiao Shenyang, which also laid the groundwork for the complete destruction of Xiao Shenyang in the future.

After Zhu Gui's death, he gave this burden to his apprentice Wang Jie to assist Jiaqing. Many years later, under the secret preparation of Zhu Gui and Wang Jie, he finally seized the opportunity to completely bring down Shenyang with dozens of charges. Maybe little Shenyang never thought of it until he died. He has been the target for decades.
