Li Shijie was a famous minister of the Qianlong Dynasty. Although he was not conspicuous in later generations, this was a living legend in the Qianlong Dynasty!

People have gone from a "donation" small official to a high-ranking official, and a first-rank official. Is this already very Li Wei?

But the same thing as Li Wei is that both of them were not official positions in the imperial examination and both became first-rank officials. The difference is that Li Wei was a lucky minister, and his starting point was the head of the fifth-rank Ministry of Revenue, and he quickly reached the top. Li Shijie started as a minor official and climbed to the position of governor of Sichuan and Shu step by step. He made outstanding achievements in fact, and was favored by the people and valued by the court. This was not only rare among the chief ministers of the Qianlong period, but also unique in the entire history of Daqingguo.

What is particularly rare is that during the 40 or 50 years of official career, he has been loyal and dedicated from beginning to end and never forget his original intention. He is famous for his integrity and integrity, compassion for the people, and considers the people everywhere. He is not only a rare honest official, but also a rare good official.

In the 22nd year of Qianlong (1757), Li Shijie was appointed as the governor of Taizhou. When he first took office, he took over more than 400 suspected cases, difficult cases and unjust cases left by his former prefectural official. When he inspected the prison and witnessed the tragic scene of the prisoners and their relatives calling for justice and hitting the ground with his head, he made up his mind to seek justice for the people. So he carefully tried the accumulated cases and personally investigated major unjust cases and fake cases. Every day from early morning to late night, local chronicles record "the case is taken day and night", and "more than 400 cases are reported in May."

The Jiangsu Governor and Censor suspected that he had been engaged in a hasty manner and sent personnel to review all cases again, but there was no wrong judgment or omission.

The praise of "Li Qingtian" can be heard everywhere in Taizhou.

As for such a capable minister, why did he get mixed up with Hong Liangji? This can only be said to be caused by fate.

Li Shijie was smart since childhood, but he was not easy to learn. He was not interested in the Four Books and Five Classics. He liked to ride horses and shoot archery, made friends, was a hero and righteous person, and loved to stand up for justice. Naturally, he failed many provincial examinations.

His father found a position as a minor official for him.

At this point, I embarked on the road to becoming an official.

But even if you become an official, you will make a joke if you can't learn from your home.

Especially after he misproficient in the search for "Canglang Township Chronicles", Emperor Qianlong criticized him for "incompatibility in literature and science", he even further encouraged him to study hard and cultivate his knowledge in his spare time in government affairs.

Therefore, it is not rare to be a high-ranking official. After becoming an official, you can still be a profession and then learn from others and gain civil and military service. This is really awesome.

Just like some young and handsome guys from a certain period, after becoming popular, they can calm down and hone their lines and acting skills, and they can also practice them. This is really awesome!

Li Shijie thus dealt with books.

Knowing the importance of reading, every time I go to an official in the place, I attach great importance to education.

When he was the prefect of Zhenjiang, he took the lead in donating money to create the "Baojin Academy"; when he was appointed as the Taiguang Grain Road in Ningchi, he also founded the "Zhongjiang Academy" to encourage the people to send their children to study and cultivate talents.

Wenfeng Academy was also donated money to build the Wenfeng Academy at the foot of Shishan, his hometown, which was the first to establish a college in Qianxi.

Hong Liangji became acquainted with him because of this. Of course, the Qianzhou academic administration at the time of Wenfeng Academy was not Hong Liangji.

But because Li Shijie donated money to support education all year round, after Hong Liangji became the academic and political manager in Qianzhou, he naturally had a relationship with this political tycoon from Qianzhou.

Sichuan and Sichuan were in decline, and Li Shijie protected Yongsheng and retreated to Qianzhou, and then retreated from Qianzhou to southern Yunnan. During this process, he and Hong Liangji left more and more.

Because Yunnan and Guizhou have their own boss, Li Shijie can only become a decoration after he lost Sichuan and Shu.

In addition, he was old, so he was just happy to be free.

If it weren't for the fact that he had been entangled with the Qing Dynasty too deeply, he would have been able to return to his hometown to live in seclusion when the Qing Dynasty retreated to southern Yunnan.

Chen Jun will definitely not let him go.

When the war in Chengdu was in chaos, no one in the Sichuan Army shot Li Shijie.

He served as the governor of Sichuan and Shu for two years, and understood the laws and regulations, advocated integrity, and set an example by taking action. He was particularly frugal in food, clothing, housing and transportation, eliminated cumbersome etiquette, punished corrupt officials, and worked hard to govern, causing the suffering of wars and chaos in Jinchuan for more than ten years, and the economy was fluent. Sichuan and Shu, which were empty in the vassal treasury, gradually recovered its vitality. The name in Sichuan was extremely loud.

Of course, the limitations of history are still very obvious to Li Shijie. He can take care of the plains in the middle of Sichuan and the prefectures in eastern Sichuan, but he still cannot take care of the shanty towns and shanty towns in the Daba Mountains. After the White Lotus Sect started, people should rebel or rebel.

He sighed a long sigh. Long after the Qing army lost Jiangnan and Huguang, Li Shijie had no hope for the situation. But he was blessed with the favor of the Qing Dynasty and could not turn around and surrender.

Then let it go.

Anyway, he is confident that he will not be in trouble.

Maybe Chen Jun will hold him respectfully when he sees him.

So if southern Yunnan is gone, it will be gone. It won’t take long for the Qing Dynasty in the Western Regions to be completely gone.

Li Shijie is already a seventy-year-old, so he thought too much and did he do it. He went home honestly and waited for death and could die in his hometown. This is the greatest luck.

Now the Chen army went down to Qujing without fighting, the governor Liu Bingtian, the governor Tan Shangzhong, and the governor Wu Dajing, all surrendered without fighting, and the gates of Kunming suddenly opened. I am afraid that in a few days, the red flag should be floating in this city.

I don’t know what choice those two will make at this critical moment.

If I really learned from the King of Liang in the late Yuan Dynasty, it would be fine, if I bowed my knees and surrendered...

Li Shijie suddenly shook his head and laughed. His thoughts were really unbearable. Just thinking about Yongyan and Yongxuan's previous performance, Li Shijie always had a "ominous" premonition.

...

The governor of Yunnan and Guizhou was Fu Gang, who was in charge of the military power in Kunming.

This person was born in the Irgen Jueluo family and was from the Zhenglan Banner.

"What you said is true?"

"The villain dares not make a fool of such a big deal."

"But you are the closest prince Zhi, why did you give Prince Zhi a knife in this matter?"

"Although the villain is a personal follower of the prince, he is even a descendant of the Eight Banners and a descendant of the Qing Dynasty."

Fu Gang twitched his cheek suddenly, how could such loyal ministers and martyrs be placed in a truly useful position?

With so many civil and military ministers competing to contribute, the Qing Dynasty was completely defeated. Fu Gang even felt that there were already a lot of people in Kunming City, and he had already sent the surrender letter to Chen Jun quietly. They were just waiting for the others to come and surrender.

But the little person in front of me is right.

The surrender and death of the two princes represent the last trace of dignity of the Qing Dynasty.

Why do you say that? It is because when the real world is over, the one in the Western Regions surrendered obediently.

But the two princes in front of him could not surrender.

"The emperor surrenders, the prince cannot surrender."
