"Zi Han is not greedy for treasure.

A man in the State of Song got a piece of jade and gave it to Zi Han, a powerful official. Zi Han has not been affected. The person who offered the jade said, "Show it to the master who made the jade and say it is a treasure before you dare to offer it." Zi Han said: "Your baby is this jade, and mine is' not greedy'; If I accept your jade, won't you and my treasure be gone? Everyone still keeps their own baby! "

Hearing this, the man knelt down and kowtowed and said, "It is really unsafe for me, a small common people, to hide such a precious treasure. For my own safety, I dedicate it to you! " So Zi Han found a place in the city to let him stay, introduced a company that processed and bought jade to help him polish it, sold it at a good price, and then let him go home with money as a boss.

A generation of honest officials-Harry

Hai Rui (15 14- 1587) was a famous Hui politician in the Ming Dynasty. Hainan Qiongshan (present-day Haikou) is a native of Ruxian, whose name is Feng Gang. He studied poetry classics since he was a child, and he was well-read and versatile. In the 28th year of Jiajing (1550), it was selected. He was first appointed to Chongqing, Nanping, Fujian, and later promoted to Chun 'an, Zhejiang, and Xingguo County, Jiangxi, where he pursued the policy of clearing taxes, rehabilitated false and wrong cases, and cracked down on corrupt officials, winning the hearts of the people. In the forty-fifth year of Jiajing, he served as the director of the Yunnan Department of the Ministry of Household Affairs, wrote a letter criticizing Sejong for his superstition of witchcraft, extravagant life and neglect of state affairs, and was persecuted and imprisoned. Sejong was released after his death. In the third year of Qin Long's reign (1569), he was promoted to the right capital. As always, he punished corrupt officials, cracked down on powerful people, dredged rivers, built water conservancy projects, and imposed whipping laws to force corrupt officials to return to the people, thus having the reputation of "clear sky". After discharge, he was dismissed and lived at leisure 16 years. In the 13th year of Wanli (1585), it was put into use again. He successively served as the right assistant minister of Nanjing official department and the right consultant of Nanjing, and advocated severely punishing corrupt officials and prohibiting bribery. He died in Nanjing two years later.

Haiduan was an honest official all his life and won the respect and love of the people. It is said that when they heard the bad news of his death, the local people were deeply saddened by the loss of their loved ones. When his coffin was transported back to his hometown from Nanjing waterway, the two sides of the Yangtze River were crowded with people to see him off. Many people even painted his portrait for their home. The legend about him is more widespread among the people. After the writers processed it, they compiled it into the famous long case-solving novels "Dahongpao at Sea Palace" and "Little Red Robe at Sea Palace", or into the scripts "Hai Rui", "Hai Rui dismissed from office" and "Hai Rui Shangshu". Harry, like Bao Zheng in Song Dynasty, is a model of honest and upright officials and a symbol of justice in the history of China.
