On Yu Qian's 60th birthday, there was an endless stream of people giving gifts at the door. I am a housekeeper and won't accept birthday presents.
Due to Yu Qian's loyal service to the country and outstanding military achievements, the emperor sent someone to send a jade cat, Admiralty. Who knows that the housekeeper drove away all the eunuchs who gave gifts according to Yu Qian's subordinate relationship. The eunuch was a little unhappy, so he wrote, "Work hard, have a high moral standard, and work hard day and night." . Today, the emperor gave a gift, but he refused it unreasonably. "Four words, please housekeeper to Yu Qian. After reading it, Yu Qian added four sentences below: "The heart of serving the country should be loyal, and officials are most afraid of greed. Hard work is an internal matter, and refusing gifts is a clean and honest style. " Seeing that Yu Qian was so determined, the eunuch had nothing to say and went back to report to the emperor.
In a short time, Yu Qian's fellow countryman friend Zheng Tong also came to give gifts. Yu Qian wrote four more sentences: "You and I are honest and clean." It is better to celebrate your birthday with tea than to dye the worldly dust with gifts. Zheng Tong was very envious when he saw it, so he asked his family to bring gifts back and went in to make friendship with Yu Qian. "。
Yu Qian is having a very speculative conversation with Zheng Tong. The housekeeper came in to announce that a man named "CoCo Lee" sent a pot of evergreen and asked the housekeeper to bring a poem: "Evergreen grass is affectionate and related to staying in a mountain stream." The people often look forward to growing grass and always removing corrupt officials for the people. "Seeing Yu Qian, I went out to meet him personally, solemnly took over the evergreen pot, and sang a poem loudly:" A pot of old age is full of worries for the people. "I stayed in the mirror for a long time, which made me an evergreen official."
Yu Qian was selfless and honest, which offended some corrupt officials in the imperial court. The emperor also felt that Yu Qian was unkind and ignored the emperor, and his heart was always unhappy. So under the frame of corrupt officials, the emperor found a charge and dismissed Yu Qian's official and asked him about his crime. Yu Qian wrote such a poem in prison: "A thousand hammers cut out a deep mountain, and the fire burns idle." I'm not afraid of broken bones. I want to remain innocent in the world. "
