In "Yongzheng Dynasty", there is also a famous scene, that is, a meeting between Li Wei and Li Fu.
That was the inside story of Li Wei's investigation of fraud in the field, and after asking for help from many parties without success, he took the initiative to go to Li Wei's door and asked Li Wei to help lead troops to surround the examination room.
It is reasonable to say that Li Fu was only a cabinet attendant, equivalent to the official position of four pins and five pins, responsible for reading the daily chapters, which is roughly equivalent to today's government office secretary, assistant and other work positions, and then temporarily arranged by Yongzheng to serve as the deputy chief examiner of this Enke. Li Wei was different, at this time he had already served as the inspector of Jiangsu, a tax-intensive place in the Qing Dynasty, and a proper feudal official and a big member of yipin.
In terms of official rank, the two are not a heavyweight at all.
So how did Li Fu behave when he arrived at Li Wei's mansion?
Only to see Li Fu first at the door, the security guard in charge of opening the door was trained.
Not to mention that Li Fu was much lower than Li Wei's official rank, even if he was a colleague of the same level, he would not come forward and scold the other party's subordinates. Even if Li Fu was panicked to deal with the fraud case at the science field at that time, his heart was anxious. However, this kind of behavior and behavior is indeed inconsistent with his identity and cultivation.
After entering the courtyard, Li Fu was stopped by Li Wei's soldiers. He was told that Li Wei was about to meet the emperor and was writing a debriefing report. As a feudal official, Li Wei was about to be summoned by the emperor to prepare his own work report, which was naturally the top priority, and there was nothing wrong with arranging for someone to open the door for himself.
But what did Li Fu say?
"Illiterate, what fold to write?"
This was the first sentence that Li Fu directly flew out with Li Wei's relatives.
As a person of lower rank, even if you look down on the diplomas of personnel with higher ranks than you, you cannot expose the shortcomings of the other party in the territory of others and in the face of other people's subordinates.
You openly expose the boss's shortcomings in people's territory, and no subordinates will agree to it.
Seeing that the pro-soldier in front of him ignored him, Li Fu roared even more, first calling Li Wei's name directly.
In ancient times, the titles among officials were very elaborate.
In the absence of very close friendship, the subordinate can only call the official name of the superior, and between the level, at least it should be called its name or official title, and only the superior can call the subordinate directly by his name.
Li Fu's move can only be said to have not taken Li Wei in his eyes at all.
Subsequently, Li Fu revealed his identity even more atmospherically:
"Li Fu, who is from the Shi Jinshi, a cabinet attendant, and the current deputy chief examiner, is here!"
This call was obviously aimed at Li Wei's shortcomings of "illiteracy."
Li Fu's series of tumultuous operations can be said to have stepped on all the taboo minefields of officials, people, and mixed workplaces.
So, how does Li Wei deal with it?
Li Wei's roar, Li Wei must have heard clearly in the room.
However, after opening the door and coming out, Li Wei behaved like this:
Only to see Li Wei take three steps and make two steps to run out, and come up to praise Li Fu.
"This is the Great Qing Official!"
"This is the leader of the readers!"
"This is to give me Li Wei face!"
Li Wei's three consecutive words can be said to make Li Fu feel comfortable listening to it.
Because these three sentences are all Li Fu's favorite words.
As a self-styled and high-ranking official, Li Fu naturally regarded himself as a clean official, and Li Wei's first sentence came to the point.
Subsequently, Li Wei gave Li Fu a supreme evaluation: the leader of the readers.
Don't underestimate the weight of this sentence.
If Li Wei is a reader, such a praise of Li Wei will have the taste of literati being light and secretly ridiculed, but as we all know, Li Wei is a person who does not understand literature and ink, and even people like him who are "illiterate" evaluate Li Fu in this way, then Li Fu himself will feel that his identity as a "leader of readers" is full of gold, and the five 9s cannot be beaten.
Just like Zhang Liaowei in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", zhang liaowei shook the xiaoyaojin of eastern Wu, if the adults of eastern Wu heard the name of Zhang Liao, they were frightened and trembling, and it seemed that they could not show Zhang Liao's might. However, if it is said that even children who hear Zhang Liao's name are afraid to cry at night, they can show the shadow that Zhang Liao brought to the hearts of Eastern Wu people.
Finally, Li Wei directly summed up Li Fu in one sentence: This is to give me Li Wei face.
Just imagine, Li Wei's official rank is so much higher than Li Fu's, and he still "compliments" Li Fu like this, which will make Li Fu feel so proud in his heart.
Subsequently, Li Wei let Li Fu into his house and began to discuss ways to deal with the fraud case in the field.
Then, from this simple meeting between Li Wei and Li Fu, we can see that the two are completely opposite to the way of dealing with the world, whether in words and deeds, manners, or attitudes.
Li Fu is arrogant, pretentious, and arrogant, while Li Wei shows simplicity, sincerity, and no shelf.
The reason for such a situation is first of all objective reasons -- Li Fu is the literati disciple most valued by the Three Brothers, which is probably the information known to the officialdom.
Perhaps it was precisely for this reason that Li Fu openly dared to kick open the door of Li Wei's mansion, directly count li Wei's illiterate characters, and directly reveal his golden label of "giving a scholar's birth, a cabinet attendant, and a current deputy chief examiner".
So is Li Wei really afraid of this label of Li Fu?
Of course not.
Next, when Li Wei and Li Fu went to the examination room to search for evidence of fraud, in the face of Zhang Tinglu, whose status was higher than Li Fu, Li Wei did not take him seriously at all.
So the reason why Li Wei showed a respectful attitude towards Li Fu was nothing more than a few reasons:
1. Behind Li Fu is the Three Brothers YinZhi, and Yongzheng first ascended the throne, the Three Brothers have the merit of support, and the relationship with the emperor is the honeymoon period. As a "delicate ghost" and "clever worm" who has followed Yongzheng for many years, Li Wei is naturally deeply aware of this relationship. When Li Fu, a red man under the Three Brothers, came to visit, he naturally wanted preferential treatment.
2. Li Fu himself does have a certain talent and popularity, coupled with honesty and integrity, and has become famous and deserves respect.
3, Li Wei originally started from the grassroots level of the Yongzheng Hidden Residence, all kinds of observation, all kinds of caution, only step by step to today, Li Wei in the official field, the workplace has been crawling and fighting for so many years, naturally understand a number of friends, many roads, multiple enemies and more walls, low posture to be a person can go further. At present, Yongzheng has just promoted him to be the inspector of Jiangsu and is in the ascending period of his career. Although Li Wei had Yongzheng as his backer, he understood even more that for someone like Li Fu, he could make the best friends and must not be offended.
However, when faced with Zhang Tinglu, who openly dared to cover up the fraud in the field and try to fool through the pass, Li Wei did not spare any mercy and directly reported to Yongzheng, even if the other party was the younger brother of Zhang Tingyu, the big man in the study. Because Li Wei always remembers the highest criterion in his heart: that is, to be absolutely loyal to Yongzheng.
Not only can accurately grasp the situation in the DPRK and China, but also be able to treat people and things with a low posture, and always let the big guy see his loyalty and sense of responsibility, Li Wei handled these very well, and Yongzheng will definitely reuse him and promote him.
On the other hand, Li Fu, whether he is fighting for his background of having three brothers, or whether he is talented or pretentious, whether he is talking or doing things, digging pits for himself everywhere and leaving no way back for himself.
In the end, he was almost beheaded by Yongzheng.
The final fate of the two can be described as a world of difference.
