General comments

Bao Zheng is a famous official and an outstanding official representative in the history of China. He focused on production all his life, consolidated national defense, appointed people on their merits, and pleaded for the people with outstanding achievements. Bao Zheng's name has become a symbol of incorruptibility.

Bao Zheng is strict and upright, and hates petty officials for being selfish and mean, and being honest and honest. Although he hated it very much, he never forgot to practice the principles of loyalty and forgiveness. He doesn't associate with people at will, he doesn't please people with sweet words, he doesn't have a personal letter at ordinary times, and he even cuts off friends and relatives. Despite his noble status, the clothes he wears, the tableware he uses and the food he eats are the same as when he was an ordinary person. He once wrote a family motto: "Sun Shi's descendants who have committed crimes are not allowed to be sent back to their own homes; After his death, he should not be buried in a big coffin. Those who don't follow me are not my descendants. Lift the stone and erect it on the east wall of the hall to inform future generations. " ? At that time, people also called it "integrity", "to some extent, to humiliate others with a smile." Thus, Bao Zheng's character is almost stubborn and even inhuman. However, this is precisely the fundamental difference between him and some mediocre officials.

Bao Zheng was strong and determined in the imperial court, so eunuchs were greatly restrained. Everyone who has heard of him is afraid of him. People compare Bao Zheng's smile to something as difficult as the clear water of the Yellow River. Children and women, who also know his reputation, call him "guaranteed". So people in the capital say, "Yan Luowang and old man Bao are the ones who secretly pay bribes, and it doesn't matter." According to the old rules, you can't file a lawsuit directly with the authorities. Bao Zheng opened the front door of the government office, and let the accuser come to the front to state the right and wrong, so the small officials dare not cheat. North Korean officials and powerful families built private gardens and pavilions and occupied Huimin River, thus blocking the river. Due to the flooding in the capital, Bao Zheng destroyed all the garden pavilions. Some people used land certificates to falsely report the number of their fields, but Bao Zheng strictly inspected them and impeached the fraudsters.

Bao Zheng was loved for his achievements and conduct, so when the news of Bao Zheng's death came out, the ruling and opposition parties were shocked and the whole city mourned. "Jingshi officials and people are sad; I heard a sigh on the road. " The inscription of Kaifeng Prefecture in the Northern Song Dynasty, now in Kaifeng Museum, is engraved with the names and working years of 183 Kaifeng Prefecture Magistrates, but Bao Zheng's name has been worn away. It is said that this is because people often touch and name Bao Zheng because they worship him. Over time, the inscription has worn out.

Bao Zheng enjoys a high reputation in the society, so people have widely read, idealized and artistically told his stories, and many anecdotes and legends have been derived. In the Southern Song Dynasty, there were stories and operas about Bao Zheng, while in the Yuan Dynasty, there were a large number of Bao Gong dramas, such as Exploring Chen Zhou. Bao Zheng was appointed as the governor of Kaifeng with the title of straight bachelor of Longtuge (later mistaken for a university), and Bao Zheng was called Baolongtu. The novel "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness" (called "Dragon Map Public Security" in the storytelling circle) has become a well-known legend.
