Emperor Qianlong(Hongli, 弘历)Ⅲ

 In a word, he was a typical literary emperor or well-educated emperor. Also he was also the representative of ancient literators. During his reign, he also ordered to compile a large-scale book system named Sikuquanshu (四库全书), which is comprised of 3503 kinds of books, 79337 volumes and 36304 books. Its number of volume is three-time more than Yongledadian (永乐大典). And it is the collection of China’s ancient culture and thought. But he put He Shen who was a corrupted official in the important position, and ran out of most of the wealth. His later period was the turning point of Qing Dynasty from power to declination.
