Characters and deeds
Eighteen years, earthquake, seeking words. Dieyu Shangshu said: "Kedao is the official of the imperial court. He knew everything in the original period and told when he heard about it. Since AI Yuanzheng, the constitutional minister, asked to ban tiaozuo, his speech has been very popular. I asked the emperor to read the memorials of the Shizu Dynasty and discuss how to improve them. He has no courage to speak at ordinary times. Once he wants to be generous and straightforward, it is difficult. After the meeting, there were those who were determined to be loyal and denounced the treacherous and sycophantic people. Even if the impeachment is successful, the crime of favoritism will not be avoided. In this way, the officials have some scruples and dare not speak in vain; the officials at home and abroad have some scruples and dare not act in vain. " I'm going to attend the meeting of the nine Qing Branch. On the day of Yue, the summoning officials gathered at the left gate and asked, "how can I decide on the ban of Yu Shu?" Hao weine, the Minister of the Ministry of official affairs, and Li zongkong, the Minister of the Ministry of official affairs, should not be reopened. "What do you think of Di Yu?" he asked Tie Yu said to him, "the emperor is a sage, and has never condemned Yan Guan. However, with the disciplinary regulations in place, all officials are afraid. " He said, "if you say so, will the regulations be abolished?" Tie Yu said to each other: "although the section is set up, we should distinguish between public and private honesty and falsehood." I'm not sure. The edict said: "officials should be perfunctory about state affairs. If there is a great deal of fraud and corruption, it is necessary to correct and impeach them. The law must be carried out, and no loan will be granted. It's also known that Wei Xiangshu played Cheng RUPU. It's true. It's not known that it's forbidden. " Before the ban on Yu, Zhang Zuoshi, referring to the emperor Shizu presented by the cabinet, said, "do you think I haven't read this?" Tie Yu said to him, "I'm not afraid to speak as much as I can because I've had a long time of reading." I ordered him to pay to the Museum of history. The next day, he was ordered to write notes on the daily life. Find the handprint of Engineering Department and give it to Shizhong. On the other hand, jiadiyu, Wang Yuewen and Li Jiong were competent.
In the past 21 years, he neglected the habits of foreign officials, neglected to be lazy in official affairs, settled in the cabinet on official business, and delayed the transfer of culture. Please forbid it. He was promoted to the censor of zuojindu.
In the 24th year, he was granted the title of governor of Sichuan. In order to push the officials, the people liked it. It is the official's fear to ban Yu Zhi, to list the imperial edicts in the office, to strictly control, to prohibit private recruitment of miscellaneous factions, and to put an end to the feeding of heritages. Shuyan: "Sichuan is extremely desolate after repeated wars. Most of the official gentry lived in other provinces. Although they made their children return to work, they still abandoned their native place and went to other places. When people see this, they will not return. If one of the local officials is recruited back, it can reach several households of the common people. When the gentry and officials returned, the people did not recruit them. Now it is found out that they belong to the gentry of other provinces. Please move the imperial department and order them to resume their work. " Follow it. The people of Shu were trapped in wood mining. They first reported the harm of Yu Bi's words. Huisong Wei, the king of Taoism, entered the throne, and he also gave an imperial edict to exempt him. In response to the request, the transportation of white wax will be exempted and the iron tax will be suspended. In the 27th year, he died and was given a funeral.
Life of the characters
During the reign of Emperor Kangxi, AI Yuanzheng, the censor of zuodu, once wrote a memorial to the emperor, asking him to order that the officials of science and Taoism should not be allowed to hear about things. The so-called bureaucrats and Taoist officials, including the six bureaucrats and the imperial censors in the capital, are responsible for inspecting and supervising the words and deeds of the six ministries and local officials, and making timely suggestions to the emperor. At that time, the supervision system allowed "anecdotes", that is, officials had the right to write letters to admonish or impeach officials according to the rumors. AI Yuanzheng believes that this practice lacks evidence support, and is suspected of listening to the wind and telling the rain, so immunity from speech should not be granted.
Emperor Kangxi listened to AI Yuanzheng's suggestion and banned the hearsay, so fewer and fewer people wrote to impeach him. In the 18th year of Kangxi, Yao Diyu decided to fight against the ban. He wrote a letter to Emperor Kangxi, asking the emperor to personally review the memorials of Yanguan in Shunzhi Dynasty to see how sharp and daring the remonstrators were at that time. In the memorial, he said that if the freedom of speech of Taoist officials is suppressed under the pretext of anecdote, it will encourage them to develop the habit of being smooth and frivolous. Gradually, everyone will not dare to speak, and they will not bear the responsibility in case of major events.
Emperor Kangxi attached great importance to Yao Diyu's Memorial, and specially called Yao Diyu for questioning at the court meeting of Qianqing palace. Emperor Kangxi said, "I'm not trying to restrict the official discussion. Since the eighth year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, how could any minister be convicted of his words? " Yao Xiangyu replied: "even if the emperor does not punish Yan Guan, but if the regulations and prohibitions are placed there, the officials will still be afraid and dare not speak.
Emperor Kangxi nodded slightly and said gently: "you asked me to review the memorials of Shizu Dynasty. Do you think I haven't read them? In the past, there was no rule forbidding hearsay. In the future, the officials of science and Taoism should actively give advice and admonishment, and keep the state affairs in mind. " In order to confirm the abolition of the ban, Emperor Kangxi specially ordered that these words be publicized to the historical museum. Yao was soon promoted to work in charge of the matter. (Qingbai notes)
Offspring
In order to reward him, Kangxi gave him 24 words for his family, which he followed since he founded Yugong: "to inherit the integrity of Yuyu, to establish a good reputation in the eternal world, to be honest and good, to prosper, to study before and to renew his ambition." The descendants are mainly distributed in yaojiashan, Huangpi, Hubei Province, yaojiawan, Caidian street and yaojialao house. Most of the descendants take Kangxi's 24 character genealogy as their genealogy, which has been handed down from generation to generation.
