Kali, Dong E, Manchuria is a member of the Red Banner. He Heli, the fourth grandson of He Heli, a minister in the early years of the Qing Dynasty and the fifth minister of the founding of the country.
Kali started from the shadows, appointed the head of the ministry, and then moved to Langzhong. In the thirty-fifth year of the Kangxi reign (1696), Emperor Kangxi personally conquered Galdan, accompanied by Kali, and was later promoted to the director of the Shengjing Household Department. He was promoted three times in one year and was awarded the rank of Cabinet Bachelor.
In the thirty-eighth year of Kangxi (1699), he was awarded the governor of Shanxi. Kali was an official who was diligent and sensitive, and could handle government affairs, but he was very greedy and indulged in officials to abuse the people, which led to resentment among the people of Shanxi. At the time of the lack of staff in the Lu'an prefect, Kali Shangshu recommended Li Shaozu, the governor of Huozhou, Li Shaozu killed himself because of alcohol, but Kali concealed it and did not report it, and Emperor Kangxi did not pursue it when he heard the news. Yushi Liu Zhinai said that Kali was greedy, and he got about hundreds of thousands of stolen goods, and Zhao Fengzhao, the prefect of Taiyuan, was his confidant, and he used torture to satisfy Kali's greed. Emperor Kangxi held him accountable, and in the end he was also defended by Kali.
Guo Mingqi, a citizen of Pingyao County, and others went to the capital to inspect the city and state the charges of Kali at Yuan Qiao, the inexhaustible magistrate of the county, because Kali sheltered the insatiable county magistrate. Yuan Qiao Shangshu reported to Emperor Kangxi and counted his crimes: "Kali added two-tenths of the fire consumption to the collection of money and grain in the whole province, and compensated for the losses of Datong, Linfen and other counties respectively, and the rest became his own, and he obtained more than 400,000 taels of silver." He used the repair of the state ancestral hall and temple, and used the governor's seal book to extort the people to donate. Ordered the servants to go to Pingyang, Fenzhou, and Lu'an to force the rich people to give gifts. He tried the case and obtained bribes from Linfen, Jiexiu Fumin Kang Shiding, and Liang Mei. He connived at Fenzhou Tongzhi Ma Xian and shielded Du Liandeng in Hongdong Zhixian County, these are all **. He also concealed the hailstorm that had been pacified. Seven things in total. Emperor Kangxi instructed Kali to reply one by one. Shanxi Xuezheng Zou Shicong on behalf of the Taiyuan gentry and the common people asked to stay in the Ka ceremony, and the imperial history Cai Zhen was sparse ** Zou Shicong: "The duty is education, but it colludes with the governor, and Yuan Qiao's Shangshu received the holy decree only two days ago, and the Taiyuan gentry and the people signed a statement, which is obviously untrue." Kali and Zou Shicong are in the same provincial capital, if you really don't understand this situation, this is Kali's confusion;If you know and don't stop it, you want to get away with it. Please send this case to the Criminal Department for discussion and handling. Kali quibbled that Guo Mingqi and others had come to Beijing to make false accusations because of their own affairs, and argued that what Yuan Qiao and Cai Zhen said was unfounded. Emperor Kangxi asked Jiuqing to review the report, and as a result, Guo Mingqi and others were handed over to the Criminal Department for punishment, and Yuan Qiao and Cai Zhen were dismissed for false accusations.
In the forty-eighth year of the Kangxi reign (1708), Kali was promoted from the left servant of the household department to the governor of Liangjiang, and became more and more indulgent, and successively dismissed those who did not go along with it.
In the fiftieth year of Kangxi (1710), Zhang Boxing, the governor of Jiangsu, said that Jiangnan Township had tried to accept bribes this year, and the government and the opposition discussed a lot. Emperor Kangxi ordered Shangshu Zhang Pengxi and Shilang Heshou to investigate and deal with it, and Zhang Boxing and Kali were tried. Later, when he learned that Wu Mi and Cheng Guangkui had secretly bribed him, and that Kali was implicated in his confession, Zhang Boxing requested that Kali be relieved of his post and handed over to the relevant departments for serious trial. Kali was uneasy, and also found out Zhang Boxing's so-called seven crimes. Emperor Kangxi ordered both of them to be dismissed. Zhang Pengxi and others soon reported that Zhao Jin, Wu Mi, and Cheng Guangkui had offered bribes and should be punished according to the criminal lawKali secretly made a false accusation, and Zhang Boxing should be dismissed.
Emperor Kangxi reproached Zhang Pengxi and others for covering up for Kali, and ordered Shangshu Mu Helun and Zhang Tingshu to re-examine, but the result was still the same as the previous opinion of Zhang Pengxi and others. Emperor Kangxi said: "Boxing is an upright official, which is understood by the world. Although Kali has more than enough talents, he likes to make trouble out of nothing, and he does not have a clean reputation, and this opinion is reversed. So, he ordered Jiuqing, Zhan Shi, and Kedao officials to review and discuss again. The next day, Zhao Jiuqing and others said: "Boxing Juguan is honest and honest, I can't believe in Kali's conduct, if there is no Zhang Boxing, then Jiangnan will inevitably be exploited by him, and it will probably reach half of the area." Just like Chen Pengnian has a little prestige, Kali wants to frame him, and finds a poem written by him in Tiger Hill that has absurd sentences, and I think that poem originally had no other meaning. Li Lin, the deputy general of the Chinese army, is very poor at horseback riding and archery, and when Li Lin is driving, I use horseback riding and archery to test him, which is very good, if you let Kali compete with him, it will definitely be inferior to Li Lin. I've been suspicious of Kali ever since. This time, the case of the two of them a** each other, at first sent officials to try it, but it was obstructed by the Kali, so that it was impossible to get the true situation;Sending an officer to hear the case is no different from the previous opinion. You should be able to understand my intention to protect the clean officials, so that the upright people will have no doubts and fears, and then there will be a situation of stability and happiness in the world. So he took away the official position of Kali and ordered Zhang Boxing to be reinstated.
In the fifty-third year of the Kangxi reign (1713), Kali's mother appealed to the emperor, saying that Kali, his younger brother Seleqi, and his son Gan all put poison in the food. The emperor asked the Criminal Department to inspect it, which is true. The Criminal Department Dinggali should be sentenced to capital punishment, his wife was hanged, Seleqi and Gandu were all beheaded, Gantai was sent to Heilongjiang, and the family property was confiscated to the government. Emperor Kangxi ordered Kali to commit suicide, his wife died with him, and the other people were sentenced by the Ministry of Punishment.
