Qinglan (1736? - 1788?) is a Manchu writer whose pen name is Changbai haogezi (most of the Manchu scholars in Qing Dynasty put Changbai in front of his name in order to belong to zhangzu) and a collection of classical Chinese novels Yingchuang Yicao.

Resume of family background

In the Qing Dynasty, Yin Tai and Yin Jishan were his grandfather and father respectively. His father, Yin Jishan, was a famous Manchu official at that time. He once held important posts such as governor of Jiangsu and governor of Liangjiang. Qinglan's brothers also served as ministers and servants in the court. He also had a younger sister who married Yongxuan, Prince Yi, to be the emperor of Fujin. Growing up in such a prominent official family, Qinglan, who had been brilliant since he was a child, could have made great achievements in his official career. However, this noble young man had a completely different life choice from ordinary people. He only took part in the imperial examination once when he was young, and then he called himself "palace examination scholar". He was no longer willing to take the imperial examination Road, but took the position of a cloth clothes until his death. Tie Bao, a well-known Manchu scholar in the Qing Dynasty, wrote in biography of Qingru Village: "his family has a hairpin and a tassel, and three generations of people have been attached to it. He is like a talented person in the village. He has a little ambition for fame and fame, and takes the obvious anecdotes like picking up mustard. He abandons the village like an open shoe, and regards it as a floating cloud. He only constructs the old house to count the couplets, lives in a secluded lane to avoid cars and horses, makes a small library, and plants bamboo around it." Qinglan takes the initiative to avoid the disputes in the officialdom, and devotes all her heart to the artistic life. She explains that "she can't get rid of her habit when she laughs, but she can't get rid of her name when she quarrels with others". One of his poems, Fang Yuan, is a prominent reflection of his slow and comfortable living style: Fang Yuan is filled with smoke and willows, and a song in front of a bottle. If you want to see through the spring light, the curtain will be half rolled, so that the mountain mirror will be polished. If magpies don't report good news, why don't they be few? Even if it rains, I'm afraid of watering flowers. I know what I mean by Jieshi brook, but I hold the piano in the bamboo. Since his great grandfather and great grandfather worked in the northeast, southwest, south of the Yangtze River and the capital, he has been able to travel all over the motherland since he was a child, and his vision is very broad. In the capital, he had a close relationship with Ming Yi and other Manchu poets and writers; in Nanjing, he established a deep friendship with Yuan Mei and other Han celebrities. All these pave the way for him to make great achievements in literature

Artistic achievements

Qinglan's poems and paintings are excellent, and he has written xiaoyoushanfang Shichao and xuanchunyuan Shichao, and his main artistic achievement is embodied in the collection of classical Chinese novels yingchuangsiecao, which is written under the pseudonym of changbaihaogezi. "Yingchuang Yicao" consists of 11 volumes, including 138 novels (one of which is a forgery mixed by later generations), with a total of 250000 words. Although this collection of novels is a little inferior to another Manchu writer and bang er's Ye Tan Sui Lu in the scope of reflecting social life and the depth of expressing ideas, it is superior to the latter in terms of artistic level. The cricket fighting, Mrs Guo Guo, Huang Hao and nu Nan Ke are the works of satirizing the past and criticizing the current politics in Yingchuang Yi Cao. The exposure of the reality of treacherous people's wrong country and shameless people's way of life reflects the author's attitude of disdaining the evil deeds of the officialdom. works describing young people's love life account for a large proportion in Yingchuang Yicao. Shicui, Yinzhen, Jinger and Yang qiue express the author's praise for the free love between young men and women, which reflects the reality that the democratic consciousness of resisting the feudal tradition in the field of marriage has been sprouting in the era when the works came out. Another example is Yizhi, Zhuzhu, taoyexian, liangshaomei and qinjilao, which respectively depict the stories of people falling in love with Fox girls or men and women falling in love with little animals. The theme selection is similar to many works in Liaozhaizhiyi, but the plot development is deeper than the works in Liaozhaizhiyi. Qinglan pays great attention to the construction of the structure and atmosphere in her work Yingchuang Yicao. "A thief under the ladle" is a story about a robber who enters the house with a knife. The heroine fights with her wisdom and bravery to win, wins and dies in the hands of the robber. The plot is tense, tortuous and unpredictable, and the philosophy is intriguing. Prison breaking is a detective story about a young county magistrate who, with the help of his resourceful old father, tries his best to find out the murder case The arrangement is relaxed and attractive. In addition, works such as "Qingmei" and "ecstasy prison" in the novel collection, either use flashback technique to structure the story, or derive twigs beside the main plot, all receive the effect of making the work level fuller; Xiaoxiang childe also adopts the style of two protagonists' dialogue as the main vein and many times interspersed with flashback stories. It is believed that in the history of Chinese novels, this kind of package is very popular It is the first time that the structural techniques mentioned in turn by the pregnant number end appear. In addition, a large number of detailed descriptions of the inner activities of the characters in such works as ecstasy prison, Xiantao and Tian Yigui were rare in the novels of that time in China.
