The history of 1000 banquets

Thousands of banquets began in Kangxi and flourished in Qianlong. It is the largest royal banquet with the largest number of diners in the Qing Palace. In the fifty-second year of Kangxi, a banquet for thousands of people was held in Yangchun Garden for the first time. Michelle Ye wrote a poem "Thousand Banquets" and won the banquet title. In the fifty years of Qianlong, a banquet was held in Gan Qing Palace for 1,000 people, with 3,000 people, and hundreds of white couplets were improvised. In the first month of the first year of Jiaqing, the imperial court of Ningshou Palace hosted a banquet for more than 1,000 people, including 3,566 people, and composed more than three impromptu poems. Later generations called the Thousand Banquets "an unprecedented act of grace".
