Liu Yong (; 1719–1805) was a Chinese politician and calligrapher of the Qing dynasty.[1]
Liu Yong was born in Shandong 1719 with courtesy name Chongru (Chinese: 崇如), pen name Shi'an (Chinese: 石庵).[2] He served in a number of high-level positions with a reputation for being incorruptible, including as the Minister of Rites and Minister of War. Since 1782 he was made the chief tutor of the Palace School (上書房總師傅) for imperial princes, including the later Jiaqing Emperor.[3]
Liu was described as an upright man. Seo Yu-mun (서유문, 徐有聞), a Korean diplomat who had joined the Dongzhi Festival mission (동지사, 冬至使) to Qing China as a Seojanggwan (서장관, 書狀官, the third of the mission) in 1798,[4] reported that "Heshen has been in power for decades. From the local government to the imperial court, almost every minister fawned over him. Wang Jie, Liu Yong, Dong Gao, Zhu Gui (朱珪), Ji Yun, Tiebao (鐵保), Yubao (玉保) and others are exceptions."[5]
Liu Yong is also regarded by some as the "most influential calligrapher of his time".[6]
