Why was Zhao Shenqiao, Kangxi's first upright official, angry with his son?

? Zhao Shenqiao, the first upright official under Kangxi, was killed by Kangxi when his son "found out" corruption and bribery in his later years. Soon, Zhao Shenqiao passed away.

Zhao Shenqiao has been an official for more than 40 years and is honest and clean. Kangxi respected his character very much. As long as Zhao Shenqiao said anything, Kangxi was considerate. It is no exaggeration to say that Kangxi was a favorite in his later years. And Zhao Shenqiao's two sons are also very promising. The second son Zhao, 1687 was promoted. With his father Zhao Shenqiao's connections, he became a magistrate in Taiyuan in just a few years, and his other son, Ye Zhao, was not bad. 1709 won the first prize, served as the editorial assistant of imperial academy, and finally worked in the south study room! After a long time, Zhao Shenqiao fell out of favor with Kangxi. Once those who flattered him began to step on Zhao Shenqiao, but Zhao Shenqiao was an honest official and it was difficult to catch Zhao Shenqiao's pigtails, so these people targeted Zhao Shenqiao's two sons.

Zhao Xiong's imperial edict is very good. Under the emperor's nose, he was walking on thin ice. It is impossible to make a big mistake, but Zhao Feng's imperial edict is different. He became the magistrate of Taiyuan at a young age, and it is easy to find his loopholes. Soon, boss Zhao Feng wrote a passbook saying that Zhao Feng had embezzled 300,000 taels of silver! And Zhao is the governor's confidant.

In A.D. 17 14, Kangxi forced himself to commit suicide because of the collapse of the ceremony. At this time, Kangxi was dissatisfied with Zhao Feng's letter. I heard that Zhao Feng took bribes of 302,000 yuan. No matter whether others believe it or not, Kangxi believed it first and directly dismissed from office. After "finding out", Zhao Feng cleverly adjusted the tax and blackmailed silver 65438+. 1765438+In February 2004, Zhao was beheaded, and 77-year-old Zhao Shenqiao lost his son in his later years. Before long, he died.
