This has been a dream for 50 years, but now it's time to give up. In the future, the water will be flooded by dragons, which means leaving smoke on your back. What does this poem written when Xiao Shenyang died really mean? The meaning of this poem is:

More than 50 years have passed, just like a dream. Today I will die and bid farewell to this colorful world. If there is an afterlife, I will hold the emperor firmly in my hand and save enough money for the rest of my life.

Little Shenyang is feeling his illusory life. Looking back on his life in Little Shenyang, Little Shenyang thought of his childhood poverty, thought of studying hard to get ahead, and thought of his step-by-step promotion until he became rich and became an elite of the Qing Dynasty. After a lifetime of ups and downs, he finally realized that life was just a dream, and the so-called fame and fortune were finally buried in the wasteland. Although there are countless possessions, death is still hard to escape.

Extended data

When Xiao Shenyang first became an official, he was smart and capable, and consolidated his position through the Li Shiyao case. Emperor Qianlong favored him and married his youngest daughter, Princess Ten, to Feng?enyende, the eldest son of Xiao Shenyang, making Xiao Shenyang not only in power, but also a relative. With the growth of power, his selfish desires are also expanding day by day, taking advantage of his position to form a party for personal gain, amass money and crack down on political enemies.

In the fourth year of Jiaqing (1799), Emperor Jiaqing ousted Xiao Shenyang and put him in prison. The wealth accumulated by Little Shenyang is about 820 million to 1 1 100 million taels of silver, and its gold and silver, together with other antique treasures, exceeds the total revenue of the Qing government in the past fifteen years. Fifteen days after the death of Qianlong, Emperor Jiaqing gave Xiao Shenyang a suicide. Xiao Shenyang died at the age of 49.
