In the long history of the Qing Dynasty, there was a ** famous for his incorruptibility, his name spread all over the country, and people called him "Qing official". His story has been passed down to this day and has become a model for future generations to follow. However, this figure, known as the "Great Qing Official", caused a storm that shocked the government and the opposition because of a simple dish of boiled cabbage.
This "Qing official" is named Li Wei, and he is a superintendent of the imperial history during the Yongzheng period. Li Wei has a straightforward personality, is vicious and hateful, and shows no mercy to the ** filthy officials. During his tenure, he has always been honest and self-controlled, lived a simple life, and was deeply loved by the people. It is said that one of his favorite dishes is boiled cabbage.
One day, Emperor Yongzheng heard about Li Wei's habit and became curious. He wanted to know why this seemingly ordinary dish would be so favored by a noble **. So, Yongzheng decided to investigate it himself.
Emperor Yongzheng secretly sent his guards to Li Wei's house to investigate. When the guards returned, they reported to Yongzheng that Li Wei did eat boiled cabbage every day, and that his home was extremely simple, with nothing but some basic furniture. This situation made Yongzheng feel very satisfied, and he thought that Li Wei's behavior was in line with the image of a clean official.
However, it's not that simple. Emperor Yongzheng was a shrewd and suspicious monarch who doubted Li Wei's incorruptibility. He thought about whether Li Wei was deliberately showing his honesty and gaining a reputation by eating boiled cabbage every day? Yongzheng decided to investigate further.
This time, Emperor Yongzheng sent more guards to secretly investigate Li Wei's family and cronies. The result surprised Yongzheng. It turns out that Li Wei's family has a lot of hidden wealth, and his cronies also have unknown wealth**. All of this points to Li Wei's ** behavior.
Emperor Yongzheng was furious, believing that he had been deceived by Li Wei. He ordered the whole house to be beheaded and all Li Wei's family and cronies were executed. This incident shocked the entire Qing Empire, and people couldn't believe that such an incorruptible ** had such a huge secret behind it.
This story allows us to see the darkness and complexity of Qing Dynasty officialdom. A **, no matter how honest he is on the surface, he can't hide the greed in his heart. Emperor Yongzheng's approach, although cruel, also reflects his zero-tolerance attitude towards **.
This story also makes us reflect. Are there people in our lives who appear to be kind on the surface, but in fact hide hidden secrets? What should we think of such people? We should learn to see things as they really are, and not be confused by superficial phenomena.
Finally, this story also provides us with a cautionary tale. As a human being, we should stick to our principles and not give up our morality for the sake of momentary interests. Only in this way can we win the respect of others and gain a foothold in society.
