In recent years, the TV series "Prime Minister Liu Luoguo" has been broadcasted all over the country. In history, Liu Yong, who hates evil and is resourceful, does exist. Liu Yong (A.D. 17 19- 1804), whose real name is Confucianism, was born in Zhucheng, Shandong. He is the son of Liu Tongxun, a college student. He used to be a magistrate of Taiyuan, a bachelor of cabinet, and a governor of Hunan. , also worked as a minister in the official department, very successful.

Liu Yong is famous for his calligraphy. His calligraphy is round and graceful, with thick brush and ink, soft outside and rigid inside, and unique. He is known as "rich in essence, restrained in strength and inclusive". Liu Yong writes strangely. It is said that he writes in front of people with a pen on his wrist and follows the rules, but when he writes alone, he turns to a rotten book and writes in a happy place. The pen will fly away and the ink will splash everywhere. At this time, his handwriting is lively and bold, with a unique look. The ancients evaluated Liu Yong's calligraphy. At the age of 50, "the book is exquisite and round, and there is beauty in it", reaching its peak after 60 years old. The Qing emperor also appreciated Liu Yong's calligraphy. Today Zhucheng Museum still preserves Liu Yong's calligraphy works.

Liu Yong was once the governor of Hunan Province. At that time, there were many disasters in the province, corrupt officials were rampant, and the people complained. He impeached corrupt officials, repaired city walls, got rid of bad habits and compensated the victims. He made outstanding achievements in military service and was soon promoted to the left capital of Douchayuan.

1782, Liu Yong was appointed as the official minister, and was ordered to try the bribery fraud case of Shandong Guotai, the uncle of the imperial concubine. He came to Shandong quietly, disguised as a common people, and visited privately on foot to get to know the truth. At that time, Shandong was affected for three years in a row, and Cathay Pacific lied about its harvest in order to get credit. When it comes to tax collection, all those who fail to pay in full will be investigated and punished, and the nine Jinshi and Juren who plead for the people in the province will be slaughtered. Knowing that the bribery case was solved, Guo Tai quickly collected money to cover up the crime. Liu Yong truthfully reported to the court, ordered Tai Taigong to be arrested and returned to Beijing, and opened a warehouse to help the people. The imperial concubine interceded for the country, with some suggestions. Based on the evidence obtained from private visits, Liu Yong committed crimes against the country many times, and argued for it, and finally brought the country to justice.

1797 was promoted to dongge university. 1799 was instructed by Jiaqing emperor to investigate and deal with the case of small Shenyang, a university student in Wenhua temple, who formed a party for personal gain and demanded bribes. Not afraid of power, Xiao Shenyang and his companions immediately found out 20 crimes, such as extortion, plundering people's fat, and pocketing their own money, and reported back to the court. Qin Shihuang executed Xiao Shenyang and confiscated 232 million silver from his family and turned it over to the state treasury. Soon after, Emperor Jiaqing named him the Prince of Shaobao, and later appointed him the Tingchang.

Liu Yong struggled with the notorious corrupt officials and Kun all his life, leaving many stories. However, his deeds of putting righteousness above family loyalty are little known.

In Dazhuge Village, southwest township of Jiaoxian County, there is a rich man named Zhang. Thousands of hectares of land, herds of mules and horses, and houses and courtyards occupy half the village. Liu Yong's sister married the rich man's young master. Because Liu Yong's father, Liu Tongxun, has been an official in the DPRK for many years, he knows that a companion is like a tiger. If something happens, he will be dismissed and exiled, and lose everything. It is better to be a rich man's home.

After this marriage, Wei Liu gave birth to a son. After the child's full moon, according to local customs, Liu was taken back to her family. On this sultry day, Liu and other women enjoy the cool in the aisle of the hall and put their children on the side mats. Suddenly, a mule of the Liu family was frightened, pulled off the reins and ran into the aisle. The child died on the spot, neither crooked nor crooked. Liu xinru was so worried that she could not explain herself when she returned to her husband's family, and she wanted to die. Liu Yong's wife just gave birth to a boy, only one month older than the Zhang family's child. Liu Yong's wife gave her son to her sister in order to comfort her sister and prevent the Liu family from falling into the reputation of lax housekeeping, and then wrote a letter to Liu Yong telling him what had happened.

After Liu returned to her husband's family, she dared not tell the truth. She only said that the family named the child Zhang Liunan. Time flies, and Zhang Liunan has grown up in a blink of an eye. Zhang Liunan went to Beijing to take the exam and was admitted to high school. Soon, the Yanggu county magistrate was vacant, and Zhang Liunan was appointed as Yanggu county magistrate by the official department. Zhang Liunan arrived at his post. Zhang Liunan's father thought he was the father of the monarch, and all the servants in the yamen had to call him "Sir, Sir". He was too happy to speak. He wanted to keep up with his son, so Zhang Liunan had to take him with him.

Shortly after Zhang Liunan took office, he received a case: a widow surnamed Chen sued her son for unfilial. Zhang Liunan sent Wang Ju to the lobby for interrogation.

Wang Ju came to the hall and argued, "My Lord doesn't know that she is the villain's stepmother. Last year, my late father died. This year, she will remarry and share the property with everyone. Because the villain had a few words with her, she held a grudge and sued the villain. " Chen widow cried, "adults don't listen to his nonsense. My little woman has never had the heart to remarry. It's just that he doesn't work hard and gambles all day. I tried to persuade him several times, but instead of listening, he insulted me. In this way, the little woman worried that she would have nothing to rely on in the future and proposed to separate from him, but he hit me. If you don't believe me, you can check my scars. " After examination, widow Chen did have many bruises on her body. Zhang Liunan then ordered the widow Chen Xian to go home and check up for treatment.

Knowing the seriousness of the case, Wang Ju sent a large sum of money to Zhang Liunan, begging him to go home, apologizing to his stepmother, asking her to forgive him and dropping the lawsuit. Zhang Liunan refused, and it was killing people to take the money away. Grandpa Zhang hurried out from behind the screen, called Zhang Liunan into the inner room and said, "What are we officials for? How many days can our family live on your little salary? I didn't ask someone else for it, but he sent it to me on his own initiative ... "Zhang Liunan gave in under his father's persuasion and accepted the money. Naturally, Wang Ju was put back home.

Who knows that after Wang Ju came home, instead of apologizing to her stepmother, she strangled her stepmother in a rage. When widow Chen's family learned about it, they immediately asked someone to write a complaint and sued Zhang Liunan for corruption and abetting murder. Zhang Liunan panicked this time. Nevertheless, Mr Zhang still has an idea: "Talia Liu, send a letter to your uncle Liu's wife in Beijing as soon as possible. He must have a way to save you. " Liu Yong got Zhang Liunan's letter and flew into a rage. He calmed down and thought that he was actually his own flesh and blood. Now, how can he avoid destruction? But wouldn't that be against the law? He paced up and down the room, thinking and thinking, and stayed up all night. At dawn, Liu Yong went to the table, grabbed a pen, wrote a reply quickly, and handed it to the messenger: "Hurry back and give it to your master and let him do as the letter says." Zhang Liunan received the reply and opened it. Sweating down. It turned out that Liu Yong only wrote four big words in his letter: "At your own risk". That night, Zhang Liunan committed suicide by swallowing gold.
