A famous official was recorded in the history of qing dynasty. During Yongzheng and Qianlong periods, he was famous for his outspoken advice. He was praised by the moody Yong Zhengdi as: "Since I ascended the throne, only Sun Jia Jiao (the fourth voice) dared to tell me the truth. Later, he was called the first orator of the Qing Dynasty.

Jiao, who was born in poverty, once worked as a Jishi Shu in the Imperial College, being the top scholar and auditing these small officials. Although these official positions were small, they were close to the center of the imperial court, which played a certain role in Sun Jia's understanding of current politics and making suggestions for Yongzheng in the future. It may be the reason why Kangxi's court was dark in his later years, and all his brothers fought for the throne (the nine sons seized the office). Sun Jia's outspoken character doesn't seem to show much at this time.

Advise Yongzheng to get close to his brother

After Yongzheng acceded to the throne, he began to ruthlessly suppress his brothers, changed their names to' dogs' and' pigs' one by one, and sent them to guard the mausoleum; In order to show Yong Zhengdi's outstanding military talents, his favourite Nian Gengyao and his subsequent Yue Zhongqi were in charge of the Northwest War, and his 14th brother (Emperor Kangxi named him General Wang) was never allowed to get his hands on it. The purpose is to let the ruling and opposition parties know that it is right that I have no brothers in Yongzheng.

In response, Sun Jia directly warned Yong Zhengdi that the emperor should get close to his brother and withdraw his military deployment in the northwest as soon as possible.

Facing this passbook, Yongzheng was very angry after reading it: my brothers refused to accept my position as emperor, and the Eight Immortals gave me problems everywhere. You also gave me advice on getting close to them. Isn't that to make me stick my hot face to their cold ass? They may not be grateful; The war in the northwest is constant, and the national treasury is difficult to support, but this battle must be fought. I can't let my fourteenth brother laugh at me for not fighting anyone.

Therefore, Yong Zhengdi called imperial academy to take a bachelor's degree in Zhangyuan and cursed it. Anyone with a discerning eye will know at a glance that this is killing a chicken to show the monkey, and it is Jiao, the sesame official, who is scolded. But after all, the emperor should have brains, and he can't be told to scold him face to face for this little official. This makes people spread, so it's no joke.

After some abuse, assistant minister Zhu Shi happened to be there. He said gently, "Although this Sun Jiacheng is arrogant, I admire his courage. After listening to this, Yongzheng thought carefully: Now, since I became king, which courtier dares to tell me these truths? Suddenly, Sun Jiajiao laughed aloud and was promoted immediately. From then on, Sun Jia had the title of' outspoken admonisher'.

Yongzheng said,'' Sun Jia is so stupid! ''

When Jiao took up his post in imperial academy, he once called on several teachers who were full during the Yongzheng period, and he was very dissatisfied with their performance. He thinks these people can't do it, but Sun Jia Jiao insists that these people can use it. This can make Yongzheng angry: I look at people better than you. I said no, but you said yes. You are deceiving the monarch and confusing him! So Jiao was directly convicted and handed over to the Ministry of Punishment, trying to straighten out the young man's edges and corners.

Afterwards, Yongzheng thought: this jiao is really stupid. Everything has a saying in his heart, and he can't please everyone, but he is also a sincere loyal minister. So he said to the minister, "Sun Jiacheng is so stupid! So he was sent directly to the treasury of the household department to work. As a result, the corner's reputation for outspoken advice is growing.

When Qianlong ascended the throne, he bluntly warned the emperor that "three habits and one disadvantage"

When Qianlong ascended the throne, he was determined to be different from his father, so he began to reuse Jiao, and Jiao flourished from then on. In this prosperous time, as an ordinary courtier, he will take the initiative to please the king, but this is charming.

Then, Sun Jia wrote many articles, focusing on the monarch's "three habits and one disadvantage": ears like to listen to flattery, hate to speak frankly, people who like to be optimistic but don't like to tell the truth, people who obey themselves, and people who hate their hearts. If you develop these three bad habits, you will have a disadvantage: you like villains and hate gentlemen.

After seeing the passbook, Gan Long was very happy and thanked him. Jiao is a "straight minister" who does not change his true colors.

When people speak frankly, they all sign "Sun Jia Corner".

As Sun Jia's reputation as a "direct minister" is getting bigger and bigger, no matter what big things happen among the people, Sun Jia will sign all those big things. The official name of this suburb is very big, but his life is a little dangerous and he is on tenterhooks all day.

In the sixteenth year of Qianlong, Emperor Qianlong was shocked by the contents of a secret letter: this secret letter revealed rumors from the people. This rumor accused almost all the ministers favored by Qianlong and impeached the fault of the ministers; He also accused Gan Long of "five puzzles and ten mistakes", that is, Ganlong's extravagance and waste in his southern tour made the people in the world miserable, and finally signed with the suburbs.

After seeing it, Ganlong flew into a rage and ordered a strict investigation, but Jiao was not investigated. Gan Long know this is by no means charming, and jiao herself can't remember how many times she was an impostor. But it can also be seen that the name "Chen Zhi" of Jiao has been widely circulated.

Love fame but not wealth.

Sun Jia has been familiar with Zhu Xi's Neo-Confucianism since childhood, and he himself has given full play to the essence of Zhu Xi's Neo-Confucianism, and resolutely defended the morality of "Heaven destroys human desires". Therefore, in the face of many major issues, he can keep himself clean and dare to speak out.

Yongzheng once talked about Jiao with E Ertai. Yongzheng always said,' Sun Jiajiao is such a fool! E Ertai also bluntly said,'' Sun Jia can stick to itself and never be corrupt. With his belief in Zhu Cheng Neo-Confucianism, I can assure you that he absolutely doesn't love money. ”'

Yongzheng once asked Sun Jiacheng: "How many people are there in the world? Sun Jiacheng cleverly replied:' There are two kinds of people in the world, one for fame and the other for profit. I don't love money either. "'

It was these thoughts of Sun Jia that kept him honest and upright. Only in Yongzheng and Qianlong dynasties did he dare to call a spade a spade.
