A brief introduction to Li Guangdi in history: How did Li Guangdi die?
Li Guangdi (1642- 17 18) was born in Anxi, Fujian (now Quanzhou, Fujian). During the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, he was a famous minister of science.
Li Guangdi's cause of death:
In May of the fifty-fifth year of Kangxi (17 17), Li Guangdi died of hernia at the age of 77. The emperor sent Prince Heng Yunqi to pay his respects and gave posthumous title 1,200 gold. In the early years of Yongzheng, he gave a gift to the Crown Prince Tai and worshipped a shrine.
Li Guangdi's tomb is in the cypress forest in Xinban Village, Penglai Town, Anxi County. The tomb was originally a stone structure with a "wind" shape. Tombstones, Stone Weng Zhong, Stone Beasts, Huabiao and Imperial Monument were all destroyed in 1958, and stones were used to build canals. Their descendants rebuilt, repaired tombstones and made tombs out of grass. 1988, Anxi county people's government announced it as a county-level cultural relics protection unit.
Extended data:
Li Guangdi's career in officialdom is very bumpy. In the 21st year of Kangxi, his mother went back to her hometown to spend her old age, so Li Guangdi asked for leave to escort her back to her hometown. A year later, the news of her illness spread at home. As a dutiful son, he had to take time off to take care of her again.
When he returned to Beijing, it was sourdrang queen's funeral, and many officials impeached him, because it was normal that his character was repulsed by many ministers. Unlike those ministers, he doesn't want to go along with them.
He was pardoned by the emperor and should have been demoted. At that time, the emperor still appreciated him very much, but later, one thing made the emperor very unhappy, because Li Guangdi wrote an article to the emperor, which caused the emperor's dissatisfaction. He immediately denounced Li Guangdi and thought that Li Guangdi was faking Taoism. Such a person must not set an example in Hanlin, so Li Guangdi was demoted at that time.
