Mondo History Updated on 2024-02-27

Li Wei was a famous minister in the Qing Dynasty, and he was also one of the very few important ministers among the Han people in the Qing Dynasty who did not pass the imperial examination and was selected to be ranked first. Li Wei is considered an old minister of the three dynasties of Kang Yongqian, on the whole, Qianlong treated Li Wei well in history, and did not go too far with Li Wei, after all, Li Wei died in the third year of Qianlong's reign, that is, in 1738 AD, so even if Qianlong wanted to clean up Li Wei, Li Wei did not give Qianlong a chance to clean him up.

Once a son of heaven and a courtier, Qianlong is the emperor who specializes in working against his father in history, Qianlong is a very arrogant and proud emperor in history, Qianlong's long reign has created his arrogant and proud character, so in his eyes, basically except for his grandfather Kangxi, he has not served several other emperors in history, even his father Yongzheng He is not convinced, even if his father Yongzheng laid an economic foundation for him to squander for more than 60 years, he still disdains his father Yongzheng. So after Qianlong succeeded to the throne, he began to guide **, so that everyone could render his grandfather Kangxi's favorite grandson as him, and pass on the throne to his father Yongzheng, in fact, it was to pass it on to him from generation to generation, and his father Yongzheng was the emperor who was stained with his light, as if he was destined to return.

Qianlong was indeed one of Kangxi's favorite grandsons, but remember that it is one of them, Kangxi loves many grandchildren, Qianlong's generation Kangxi's favorite is the eldest son of the abolished prince Yinren, Hongxi, and before his death, he also ordered Yongzheng to treat Hongsheng well and be crowned as a prince. Yongzheng also really loves his nephew Hongxi, and both uncle and nephew are called father and son. And the first thing Qianlong did with his father after he succeeded to the throne was to kill his nephew, his cousin Hongxi, whom his father loved very much. I don't know if Qianlong was jealous or worried that Hongsheng would threaten the throne, not long after he ascended the throne, he removed Hongsheng from the clan, and learned from his father Yongzheng to name his eighth uncle Yinyu Aqina, and named Hongsheng forty-six, and the whole Hongsheng finally died of depression. The death of Hongzheng was only the first step of Qianlong's opposition to his father Yongzheng, and then it was these confidants and ministers of Yongzheng who suffered during his lifetime, such as Tian Wenjing, Zhang Tingyu and others.

Tian Wenjing died of old age as early as Yongzheng ten years, but after Qianlong ascended the throne, he still did not let go of Tian Wenjing, and the first person among the old ministers of Yongzheng who he publicly criticized was Tian Wenjing, who had been dead for more than three years. Later, the tomb of Tian Wenjing, who was buried near the Tailing Tomb of Yongzheng Qing, was bulldozed inexplicably. Zhang Tingyu was not too liquidated by Qianlong, but after Qianlong succeeded to the throne, Zhang Tingyu and Ortai were also quickly set aside by Qianlong, but Zhang Tingyu's father Zhang Ying was a scholar in the Kangxi era, and Zhang Tingyu's father and son had very deep political power in the Qing Dynasty, so Qianlong didn't clean up Zhang Tingyu at first, and after waiting for a few years, Qianlong cleaned up Zhang Tingyu, who was nearly 80 years old, and asked him to go home and deprive him of all his titles and honors.

After cleaning up Daddy Yongzheng's henchmen and ministers, Qianlong began to go further and further on the road against Daddy Yongzheng, Yongzheng's original policy was almost all overthrown, and many people who Yongzheng had hit for political reasons, especially the royal family, Qianlong rehabilitated. So Qianlong was specifically working with his father Yongzheng, and he had to deny anything his father liked, but Li Wei, the former minister of the Yongzheng Dynasty, was relatively not disgusted by Qianlong. Li Wei is very high in business, and he was not bored by Qianlong Li Wei was born in Dashahe Town, Xuzhou, Jiangsu, his father is a local rich man, and his family is very rich, so Li Wei is not good at reading since he was a child, he likes to dance knives and guns, although he is not literate in reading, but Li Wei is very smart, and he is very good at things, in modern terms, Li Wei's IQ and EQ are very high. Li Wei's father had the money to donate a five-grade official to him in the Kangxi era-Wailang, a member of the household department, although this is an idle official position, but it gave Li Weifei the opportunity to Huang Tengda.

Li Wei had the courage to do things in this idle official position, worked seriously and diligently, and had the courage to take responsibility, so Li Wei was appreciated by Yongzheng, the prince of Yongzheng, who was still the prince at the time, and he also stepped on the big ship of Yongzheng. After Yongzheng succeeded to the throne, it was the time to employ people, so Li Wei was promoted at a rocket-like speed, and less than two years after Yongzheng succeeded to the throne, Li Wei had already become the governor of Zhejiang, the main party. After Yongzheng succeeded to the throne, Dali implemented the Yongzheng New Deal to reform the ills of Kangxi's later years, and it was the Yongzheng New Deal that laid the foundation for the prosperity of Qianlong. And Li Wei is Yongzheng's hardcore supporter, he served as the governor of Zhejiang and the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, and vigorously promoted the Yongzheng New Deal in the south, so it is said that during the Yongzheng period, Tian Wenjing, the governor of Luyu, Li Wei, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, and Ortai, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, were called Yongzheng's right-hand man, and were deeply loved and trusted by Yongzheng.

Li Wei is very honest and selfless as an official, of course, Li Wei's family is very rich, and there is no need for him to go **. And Li Wei has always been an impartial law enforcement official, not afraid of the powerful, and what is even more rare is that Li Wei takes his work very seriously, and these temperaments are very good for Yongzheng's way, so he is deeply loved by Yongzheng. After Yongzheng's death, the new emperor Qianlong also liked Li Wei more, although he did not love him as much as Yongzheng, this mainly because Li Wei's official reputation was excellent among the people, and Qianlong did not dare to touch Li Wei, for fear of causing public resentment. And Li Wei also knows this, so after Qianlong succeeded to the throne, Li Wei was even more impartial law enforcement and not afraid of the powerful, after Qianlong succeeded to the throne, Li Wei, the governor of the river, Zhu Zao, the prince of Cheng, and the guards of Prince Yinzhi bullied the people, etc., which won Li Wei's reputation among the people. When Li Wei served as the local governor, he has always been sympathetic to the people's feelings, pity the people, and love the people like sons, so the local people he governed are very supportive of Li Wei, and on the contrary, the official reputation of Tian Wenjing, whom Qianlong reprimanded, is far worse than Li Wei, although Tian Wenjing is also relatively honest and selfless, but he only knows how to blindly implement the new policy, regardless of the life and death of the people in Henan and Shandong, so the people do scold Tian Wenjing as a cool official behind his back.

Li Wei is precisely because his official reputation is very good and he has Li Qingtian's reputation, so Qianlong does not dare to touch Li Wei, and generally speaking, he has to treat Li Wei preferentially, although Li Wei's character of not being afraid of the powerful makes Qianlong not very very fond of it, but Qianlong can't move Li Wei. Li Wei's EQ itself is also very high, and he will follow Qianlong, so on the whole, Qianlong did not do too much to Li Wei, he was not picked up like Tian Wenjing, and he was not as miserable as Zhang Tingyu was dismissed and deprived of his title in his later years. Li Wei died in the third year of Qianlong, and during the period when Li Wei paid equal attention to Li Wei, Qianlong also personally visited Li Wei in the house, which shows that Qianlong not only wanted to clean up Li Wei, but also had to pay more attention to Li Wei's attitude, because of Li Wei's official reputation among the people. After Li Wei died, Qianlong buried Li Wei according to the governor's etiquette, and also gave Li Wei the nickname "Minda", which also summed up Li Wei's life very well, and he was indeed very in line with Minda's nickname. Although Li Wei did not read and write much in his life, he really achieved "the insight of the world is all knowledge, and the practice of human feelings is the article", and he can get the favor of Yongzheng and Qianlong father and son, which shows that Li Wei has indeed practiced human feelings, and has brought his intelligence and wit to the peak.

After Li Wei's death, he was still reprimanded by Qianlong, who gave Li Wei enough face before Li Wei's health and did not go crazy to clean him up, thanks to Li Wei's good reputation accumulated by caring for the people. But more than ten years after Li Wei's death, his influence slowly faded, and Qianlong opened up to Li Wei without any scruples. Everyone knows that Qianlong's father Yongzheng is tired and tired and works hard every day, while Qianlong likes to travel to Jiangnan when he has nothing to do, and he goes to lose, and it happened when Qianlong travels to Jiangnan.

Li Wei was in power in Zhejiang all the year round during the Yongzheng period, and Li Wei built a flower temple in the West Lake of Hangzhou, Zhejiang. In addition, Li Wei was deeply loved by the people of Zhejiang during his reign, so even if the people knew that the flower god statue enshrined in the West Lake Flower Temple was the appearance of Li Wei, everyone also rushed to offer incense to Li Wei. After Qianlong went to the West Lake in Hangzhou to see the statue of the god in the flower temple, he was furious, and Qianlong issued an edict: "Li Weiyang borrowed the emperor's favor, was willful and arrogant, and was not a just and pure minister at first. It is very strange to set up a temple in the name of it! Then Qianlong ordered the statue of Li Wei to be demolished, and the people of Hangzhou were forbidden to worship the statue of Li Wei again. Although Qianlong did not criticize and reprimand Li Wei in depth, it also proved that Qianlong himself did not like Li Wei very much, and what made Qianlong even more angry was that the people supported and loved Li Wei very much, so Qianlong forbade the people of Hangzhou to worship the statue of Li Wei. Therefore, Li Wei was fortunate to die early, and if he died a few years later, he would most likely be liquidated by Qianlong. However, on the whole, Qianlong did not go too far with Li Wei, and he did not attack Li Wei too much, so Li Wei can be regarded as a relatively good minister in the ending of a son of heaven and a courtier.
