People's understanding of li wei, a Qing official, mainly comes from "Li Wei as an Official.". Because film and television dramas have dramatic effects, the real history is not the same as the image presented by film and television dramas. Li Wei in the play is humorous and kind, which makes people like it very much. Surprisingly, however, the historical Li Wei was also very likable.
Li Wei was born rich and had a very rich family, but he didn't like to read himself, so he couldn't read a few big characters. When everyone around him had something to do, Li Wei, who was in his thirties, spent money to donate a small official to himself. Such a person doesn't seem to have much to achieve. However, when Kangxi Weifu visited, he met Li Wei and was very fond of him. Li Wei began to be reused.
Although Li Wei had little knowledge, his ability was very strong, and he had made achievements in inspecting illegal salt, building sea ponds, and catching thieves. He spends money to be an official, but he has a heart for the people. He is just and righteous, single-mindedly serving the people, doing a lot of practical things for the people, and is of great help to carry out construction and improve people's livelihood, so the people love him very much.
His frankness, pragmatism and loyalty are the magic weapons to "capture" Yongzheng. Yongzheng trusted and loved him very much and taught Li Weiduo. Because Li Wei was born into a rich family, he did not attach great importance to money, so in many cases, it was inevitable to be extravagant and wasteful, and it was more luxurious. Yongzheng did not get angry with him because of this, but also privately advised him many times to change this problem. Although Li Wei pursues a higher quality of life, he also has high requirements for improving people's livelihood for government affairs. He strives to do everything in his hands well.
The longer it went on, the more Yongzheng loved him. Li Wei was not in good health, often coughing, and coughing up blood, Yongzheng was very worried about his body, often cared about him, and prayed for Li Wei's blessing.
And Li Wei's "reputation" among the people is very good. If you want to protect the interests of the people, you sometimes have to touch the interests of the elite, and reform is needed at this time, and reform is usually difficult to carry out, and the maintenance time is short. Li Wei supported many reforms. In the process of implementation, he is selfless with an iron face, bravely impeaching the powerful, not afraid of offending people, and must make real achievements. Therefore, the effect of the reform is better, and Li Wei's reputation is also very good.
When Li Wei was only in Hubu Langzhong, because a prince always took more money from the silver treasury, he put the two silver that the prince always received in a cabinet, which read, "A certain king wins money." Everyone who saw it understood that this was referring to the prince's improper "income." The prince did not dare to take more money. That is to say, with such a spirit as an official, Li Wei was a good result whether it was during the Kangxi, Yongzheng, or Qianlong years.
