Some time ago, we learned 22 lessons "Liu Gongquan with a Straight Heart". This lesson left a deep impression on me.
After reading the text, I thought to myself: I know that Liu Gongquan was a famous calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty, and "Liu Ti" was the font invented by Liu Gongquan. But why is there not too many words in Liu Gongquan's calligraphy? Read it again, and you will know: The article mainly describes the process of Liu Gongquan, as a minister of the DPRK, remonstrating with Mu Zong and Wenzong, two emperors of the Tang Dynasty. When Mu Zong praised Liu Gongquan's calligraphy and asked the secret of calligraphy, Liu Gongquan propped up an amazing golden rule: "Use a pen in your heart, your heart is right!" When Wenzong boasted that his robes had been washed three times, Liu Gongquan did not compete with other ministers for favor, but advised Wenzong: "Your Majesty, you are the son of heaven and rich in the world. You should choose a virtuous and unprincipled minister ... clothes washed at least a few times are just details. "
Listen, what sincere words and honest hearts! Liu Gongquan is loved by everyone, not only because of his calligraphy, but also because of his stern image of advising ministers. He can not only remonstrate with the emperor on appropriate occasions and opportunities, but also insinuate the emperor and let him accept it. Now there are not many honest officials and loyal ministers like Liu Gongquan. Most officials flatter their leaders or accept bribes. However, there will be fewer and fewer such officials, because as far as Nanxiong City is concerned, anti-corruption activities have been carried out, including the "transparent sunshine project", the "five advances" of anti-corruption education (entering institutions, communities, schools, rural areas and families), and anti-corruption public service advertisements. Of course ... Liu Gongquan's integrity and honesty, daring to remonstrate with Zheng Chen's elegant demeanor and his words will be immortal.
