The Summoner of the Battle of All Realms

Buddhism was introduced to Eastern China during the Han Dynasty. Later, a temple was built called Baima Temple, which still exists today and is known as "the first ancient temple in China".

But that is for the future and has nothing to do with the present.

Fusu was a little embarrassed.

But then I thought about it and decided to just give birth to Wu Song and let the system take care of the rest.

Let's see what identity the other party arranges.

…

After giving birth to Wu Song, Fusu began the twelfth summons.

"Swipe", Fusu drew one of the summoning cards. At this time, Fusu was even more looking forward to summoning a civil servant.

The Chu State has been destroyed, and now it needs to be governed rather than conquering the world.

Chapter 1164 Fusu’s Disgust——Hai Rui

I don’t know if Fusu’s thoughts were conveyed to heaven, but Fusu actually summoned a civil servant.

Like Zhang Juzheng, the civil servant Fusu summoned was also from the Ming Dynasty, named Hai Rui.

Hai Rui's dismissal from office is extremely famous.

Very few people don't know this.

Also because of the "Hai Rui's dismissal from office" incident, Hai Rui's reputation completely resounded throughout China!

However, Fusu did not have a good impression of Hai Rui at all.

Really not a good impression at all.

Even some smoke and revulsion!

Hai Rui, courtesy name Ruxian and nickname Gangfeng, was from Qiongshan, Hainan; he was a famous upright official in the Ming Dynasty. Hai Rui experienced the four dynasties of Zhengde, Jiajing, Longqing and Wanli in his life.

In the 28th year of Jiajing's reign, Hai Rui passed the provincial examination and was first appointed as Jiaoyu in Nanping, Fujian Province. He was later promoted to magistrate of Chun'an County in Zhejiang Province and Xingguo County in Jiangxi Province. He promoted clearing the heads of government and leveling taxes, and repeatedly redressed unjust, false and wrong cases, and cracked down on corrupt officials, winning the hearts of the people. After being promoted, he successively held the positions of prefectural judge, head of the Ministry of Household Affairs, head of the Ministry of War, Shang Baocheng, general administrator of the two capitals, and censor of Youqiandu. He cracked down on tyrants, dredged rivers, built water conservancy projects, advocated severe punishment of corrupt officials, prohibited taking bribes for personal gain, and implemented a whip law to force corrupt officials to return their fields to the people, thus earning him the reputation of "Haiqingtian".

In the fifteenth year of Wanli, Hai Rui died of illness in his official residence in Nanjing. As a gift to the crown prince and Taibao, he was given the posthumous title Zhongjie.

After Hai Rui's death, legends about him were widely circulated among the people.

Hai Rui was an honest man, even to the point of being inhumane. According to the custom of the officialdom at that time, when a new official took office and an old friend was promoted, someone would always come to send some gifts and money to express congratulations.

As long as the amount of these gifts is not large, it is human nature. However, Hai Rui publicly posted a notice saying, "Being a court official today is different from having personal privacy at home."

Then he returned all the gifts given by others, even the gifts sent by his old friends He Bangtai and Shu Dayou from afar.

As for the public advantage, it doesn't take any advantage. Before Hai Rui died, the chaijin sent by the Ministry of War was seven cents too high, so he had to account for it and return it.

Although this person is honest, he is very pedantic. As an official, he cannot be fair and impartial, so he is an official in vain.

When it comes to deciding a case, Hai Rui is not able to discern the details clearly and can predict events like a god.

For those suspicious cases, he did not investigate carefully, but "rather than unjust his elder brother, he would rather unjust his younger brother; than unjust his uncle, he would rather unjust his nephew; rather than unjust the poor, he would rather unjust the rich; rather than unjust the stupid, he would rather unjust the stubborn".

In the case of disputes over property, "it is better to wrong the local eunuchs than to wrong the common people"; in the case of disputes over appearance, "it is better to wrong the common people than to wrong the local eunuchs".

So in this aspect, Hai Rui did something very wrong.

What makes Fusu hate Hai Rui?

It was because Hai Rui almost starved his daughter to death.

According to "Jianzhibian" written by Yao Shuxiang in the Ming Dynasty: Hai Rui's family was poor, and his five-year-old daughter had no snacks to eat. A male servant in the house saw that the little girl was pitiful, so he gave her a piece of cake. She had just taken two bites when her father Hai Rui walked over with his hands behind his back and a frown on his face, "Where did the cake come from?"

The daughter told the truth.

Hai Rui was very angry and cursed: "How can a good woman accept things from men casually? Only if you starve to death are you my Hai Rui's daughter!"

A little girl of only five years old would never have thought that a piece of cake would turn her into a bad woman.

She cried and started a hunger strike.

Except for Hai Rui, the whole family panicked and tried every means to coax her to eat, but she said, "I won't eat even if you kill me." After seven days of hunger, he died.

From this aspect, Hai Rui was a father in vain.

What is even more unacceptable is that Hai Rui actually married several wives and concubines in the past few years.

According to "Wanli Yehuobian·Supplement" written by Shen Defu in the Ming Dynasty, Hai Rui married three wives and had two concubines throughout his life. The first wife, Mrs. Xu, gave birth to two daughters and was divorced by Hai Rui. The second wife, Mrs. Pan, was kicked out of the house less than a month after she entered the house.

The third wife, Mrs. Wang, gave birth to a son for Hai Rui two years before Hai Rui arrived in Chun'an.

The year after Hai Rui took office in Chun'an, Mrs. Wang gave birth to a son for Hai Rui, named Zhongliang. Mrs. Wang also gave birth to a daughter.

Mrs. Wang died on the night of the 24th of the seventh lunar month in the second year of Longqing. Hai Rui said she died of illness, but some people said she committed suicide. "The Fifteenth Year of Wanli" said that Mrs. Wang died under extremely suspicious circumstances.

Eleven days before Mrs. Wang's death, Hai Rui's concubine Han hanged herself.

When Hai Rui was in his seventies, he had a concubine named Qiu. It is said that she gave birth to a son for Hai Rui in his later years, but he died at the age of three.

…

From this we can see that Hai Rui is definitely not as upright as he is advertised to be.

In fact, Hai Rui's wives and concubines were forced to death by Hai Rui.

He still kept concubines in his seventies, which shows that Hai Rui was also a womanizer.

Fusu frowned when he saw it was Hai Rui.

This is really a "stinky card".

Fusu's face was full of disgust, yes, just disgust.

Hai Rui was useless to him.

It's a pity to throw it away, but it's tasteless to eat.

Fusu really didn't want to use him.

No one could make Fusu dislike him so much.

But Hai Rui’s calligraphy is really great!

According to historical records, Hai Rui's calligraphy is "excellent in both regular script and running script, with exquisite brushwork, profound skills, quietness and no charm". Kang Youwei in the late Qing Dynasty once commented on Hai Rui's calligraphy in his book "Guang Yi Zhou Shuang Yi": "His brushwork is wonderful and impressive."
