Time back to the Qing Dynasty during the Yongzheng period, the location is an ordinary bookstore in the capital. Mr. Wu, the owner of the library, has a quiet personality and is kind, and has been respected and loved by many students and scholars. The bookstore he runs has also become a scenic spot in the capital.
However, in such a peaceful and prosperous era, gossip and intrigue between people are often hidden under the surface harmony. On this day, Mr. Wu caused dissatisfaction among others because he had included a book with unpopular content.
The author of this book is a man named Nian Qianyao. Nian Qianyao was an important minister and held important positions in the imperial court. His talent and status made him have a large number of supporters and followers in the government and the opposition, and he won the trust of Emperor Jiaqing.
However, Nian Qianyao did not become modest and low-key because of this. He thinks he is talented, and he is always arrogant to others, and some people even call him "the dragon face disaster". In his mind, only his own talent and status are the most important, and any opposition cannot be tolerated.
On this day, Nian Qianyao learned that Mr. Wu, the owner of the library, had included his own "The Official History of China", but it was difficult to sell it in the library, and he was very dissatisfied with this. He approached Mr. Wu through various channels and asked him to remove the book from the shelves immediately.
However, Mr. Wu made it clear that he, as the owner of a bookstore, had the right to choose which books to include, and there was nothing wrong with that. Nian was outraged, believing that Mr. Wu did not respect his status and rights, and regarded him as disrespectful to himself.
In order to punish Mr. Wu, Nian Qianyao found his business partner, and through their relationship, deliberately emptied Mr. Wu's library. As a result, Mr. Wu's library had to be forced to close, and his career and life were also hit hard.
Despite Mr. Wu's reluctance, he remained deeply silent. He didn't complain or complain, just silently endured disappointment and pain. In his heart, he still adheres to his love and belief in the library business.
However, the matter did not end there, and Nian Qianyao's revenge continued. He intended to use various means to force Mr. Wu to apologize and compensate him. However, Mr. Wu never gave in, he still firmly believed that everything he did was right, and he would never bow to the unrighteous.
It was against this background that Mr. Wu became seriously ill. After Nian Qianyao learned about it, in order to prevent him from blaming himself for his tragic death, he wanted to win praise by sending him to the hospital for treatment. However, medical technology was not developed at that time, and Mr. Wu suffered a medical accident in the process of ** and finally passed away.
Mr. Wu's death became a sensational event in the entire capital. People have been talking about it, expressing their indignation and dissatisfaction with Nian Qianyao's behavior. Many people believe that Mr. Wu's death is closely related to Nian Qianyao's revenge, and they believe that Nian Qianyao is responsible for Mr. Wu's death without saving him. This incident also caused great damage to Nian Qianyao's reputation.
However, Nian Qianyao did not receive any punishment and punishment. His power and status gave him great influence in the imperial court, and the Qianlong Emperor also held him very high and was unwilling to go against his will. With the acquiescence of the government and the opposition, Nian Qianyao escaped the punishment of the law and is still high.
However, people's nostalgia and regret for Mr. Wu cannot be erased. They know that Mr. Wu is an intellectual with a heart for the world, and his library has provided a source of knowledge and wisdom for many people. With his talent and kindness, he has influenced the lives of many people, and his passing is undoubtedly a great loss to the library career and the academic community.
A few years later, with the death of Emperor Qianlong, Nian Qianyao's influence gradually waned. A new imperial edict reopened Mr. Wu's library and restored his reputation and fame. People mourned Mr. Wu's death, commemorated his contributions to the cause of knowledge, and called for Nian Qianyao's crimes to be brought to light.
