Zhao Nanxing, an upright official in the Ming Dynasty, was rehabilitated at the age of 78. Why did he still die in the place where he was sent?

I believe anyone who knows more about history knows that there was an honest official named Zhao Nanxing in the Ming Dynasty. He can really be called an upright official, because he was a very fair and strict official during his tenure. But Zhao Nanxing was rehabilitated at the age of 70 or 80, but he still died in the place where he was sent. Why? Let's be specific.

In fact, Zhao Nanxing's deeds are still worth learning. He will never misappropriate public funds privately, let alone abuse his power. He is a relatively fair and strict official, and he is also very concerned about the people. I'm sure everyone has heard that he put some petty criminals home for the New Year and then put them in prison. The story is more classic.

But it is because he is too clean that he is disgusted by other corrupt officials, which also leads to his jealousy and hatred by some bureaucratic villains. So that when he was 70 or 80 years old, the emperor ordered him to return to Beijing, but he was stopped by some villains, constantly pushing from pillar to post, which also led him to die in the place where he was sent. Therefore, relatively speaking, Zhao Nanxing died at the hands of villains.

Zhao Nanxing's integrity not only made him successful, but also destroyed him, so that he could not return to Beijing in his later years and died in the place where he was sent. Of course, his spirit is also worth learning, and his selfless quality is also an example for many officials today. Everyone should know more about him and his spiritual character in peacetime.
