雍正朝 雍正帝盛年登极。他最主要的特点就是改革，可谓大刀阔斧，快刀斩麻。心狠手辣，大兴文字狱。 首先整顿吏治。雍正一上台就大刀阔斧地整顿吏治。雍正元年的正月，雍正连续下了13道谕旨，总督、巡抚、布政司、知府、知州、知县、文官还有武官，告诫他们不许贪污，不许受贿，不许克扣，武官不许吃空额，违者严重治罪。雍正还成立会考府，就是对财政进行审计，审计出问题，要严肃处理。 雍正废除了贱籍。雍正元年（1723年）三月，监察御史年熙上书请除豁山西、陕西乐户的贱籍。山西、陕西乐户的祖先，是明朝永乐永乐帝登基后，加害建文忠臣本人外，还将他们的妻女罚入教坊司，充当官妓，世代相传，久习贱业。年羹尧之子年熙在奏疏中说她们是忠义之士的后代，沉沦至此，无由自新，请求雍正帝开豁她们的贱籍，准许她们改业从良。雍正帝看到奏折后，很是赞同，于元年（1723年）四月发出第一道"豁贱为良"的谕旨。雍正帝在下令开豁乐户贱籍的同时，又令各省检查，如发现本地也存在类似乐户的贱民，也准许他们出贱为良。 雍正先后下令取消贱民，取消贱籍，让他们编为民籍，这是社会的一种进步。这种人虽然人数不是太多，但是在历史上是有一种积极的进步的意义。 雍正在位13年，对许多的事情做了重大的改革，特别是对一些制度方面做了些改革。所以说雍正是"康雍乾"三代承上启下的作用，"康乾盛世"，严格说起来是"康雍乾盛世"。 The Yongzheng and Qianlong emperors The Putuo Zongcheng Temple of Chengde, built in the 18th century during the reign of the Qianlong Emperor.The reigns of the Yongzheng Emperor (r. 1723--1735) and his son the Qianlong Emperor (r. 1735--1796) marked the height of Qing's power. During this period, the Qing Dynasty ruled over 13 million square kilometres of territory. After the Kangxi Emperor's death in the winter of 1722, his fourth son Prince Yong (雍親王) succeeded him as the Yongzheng Emperor. Yongzheng remained a controversial character because of rumours about him usurping the throne, and in the late Kangxi years, he was involved in great political struggles with his brothers. Yongzheng was a hardworking administrator who ruled with an iron hand. His first big step towards a stronger regime came when he brought the State Examination System back to its original standards. In 1724, he cracked down on illegal exchange rates of coins, which was being manipulated by officials to fit their financial needs. Those who were found in violation of new laws on finances were removed from office, or in extreme cases, executed. Yongzheng showed a great amount of trust in Han officials, and appointed many of his proteges to prestigious positions. Nian Gengyao was appointed to lead a military campaign in place of his brother Yinti in Qinghai. Nian's arrogant actions, however, led to his downfall in 1726. Yongzheng's reign saw consolidation of imperial power at its height in Chinese history. More territory was incorporated in the Northwest. A toughened stance was directed towards corrupt officials, and Yongzheng led the creation of a Grand Council, which grew to become the de facto Cabinet for the rest of the dynasty. The Yongzheng Emperor died in 1735. This was followed by the succession of his son Prince Bao (寶親王) as the Qianlong Emperor. Qianlong was known as an able general. Succeeding the throne at the age of 24, Qianlong personally led the military in campaigns near Xinjiang and Mongolia. Revolts and uprisings in Sichuan and parts of southern China were successfully put down. Around forty years into Qianlong's reign, the Qing government saw a return of rampant corruption. The official Heshen was arguably one of the most corrupt in the entire Qing Dynasty. He was eventually forced into committing suicide by Qianlong's son, the Jiaqing Emperor (r. 1796--1820).
