Chen Tingjing was a well-known Qing official who was deeply trusted by the Kangxi Emperor. In November of the forty-ninth year of the Kangxi Dynasty (1710), Chen Tingjing begged for rest due to an ear disease and was allowed to do so. Within half a year, the Kangxi Emperor recalled him to the Zhinan Study.

Ten months later, Chen Tingjing died of illness, and the Kangxi Emperor sent the third son of the emperor, Yin Zhi the Prince of Cheng, to lead the ministers and bodyguards to Dianjiu, send 1,000 taels of silver for funeral, and order the ministers of various ministries to hang them. The Kangxi Emperor also gave instructions to the cabinet and the Ministry of Ceremonies: "Chen Tingjing served and preached, Jian Ren Lun, prudent and diligent, always a section." The knowledge is drowned, and the literary style is excellent. After giving the accusation, he paid attention to Youyin. Stay in Beijing to repair the book, still pre-flight maintenance. It is still a long time to enjoy the age to inherit the favor. He died of illness and was deeply sorry! In addition to "giving sacrifices and burials like ceremonies", he also "added sacrifices once, and Wen Zhen was also known as Wen Zhen".

These actions seem to be polite, but it can still be seen that the Kangxi Emperor has a lot of affection for him, and with "leniency and old age, almost perfect", as a coffin argument for him, and Kangxi said that the Suo'etu that he relied on the most was "the first sinner of the Chengben Dynasty" ("Qing History Manuscript Suo'etu Biography"), which was a far cry.

Later generations have always had a high evaluation of Chen Tingjing, talking about his honesty and honesty, and talking about his compassion for the people. In particular, Wang Yuewen said in his novel "The Great Qing Dynasty Xiangguo": "How cool are qing officials, Chen Tingjing is a clean official, but he is benevolent; good officials are many mediocre, Chen Tingjing is a good official, but he is shrewd and strong; chen Tingjing is a capable official, but he is as good as a stream; how cowardly the moral official is, Chen Tingjing is a moral official, but there is no lack of iron fist." "The TV series "Yu Chenlong" renders that if it were not for Chen Tingjing's help in the era of power struggle in which the king was like a tiger and his colleagues were like wolves, the world's first honest official would have to be replaced.

Chen Tingjing made great contributions to the building of a clean and honest government in the middle of the Kangxi Dynasty. He led by example, managing the household department impartially, recommending the meritocracy of the main official department, supervising the capital inspection court according to law, and strictly demanding his family, which can be called a model for a generation of clean officials, honest officials, and capable subjects.
