In the fourth year of Kangxi, Li Sijian, a man from Yongnian County, ended his wife's life with his own hands on a quiet September 28. The incident was reported to Quang Binh Province, and the government government sent a commissioner to Yongnian to conduct a trial.
Li Sijian was escorted to the front of the palace, but he suddenly grabbed a butcher's knife on the way and rushed straight into the City God Temple. He climbed onto the stage, bowed down to the statue, and expressed his inner remorse: "God condemns me for listening to the slander of traitors, which has caused the right and wrong in the village to be reversed, and I should cut off my ears." With that, he decisively cut off his left ear and threw it in front of the stage.
Then he said, "God has condemned me for taking money from others, and I should have my fingers cut off." After speaking, he resolutely chopped off the fingers of his left hand. Immediately afterward, he said, "God condemns me for the sin of fornicating with women, and I should cut off the **." With that, he castrated himself, then fell straight to the ground, falling into a coma.
At that time, the governor Zhu Yunmen had already petitioned the imperial court to strip Li Sijian of the title, and it was approved. And Li Sijian himself had been killed by Cao Cao in the underworld before this. This embarrassing story was read in the manuscript of the newspaper.
