A bigger crime than murder is the literary inquisition in the Qing Dynasty. Do you know what poems were there at that time?

Courtier Justine was appointed as the examiner in Jiangxi and was given the title of "Wei Minzhi". The defendant issued the word "Wei Zhi", implying "going to Yongzheng's head". Yongzheng was furious and put Justine in prison. As a result, Charlie was scared to death in prison, his body was slaughtered, and his relatives were beheaded or killed, or exiled. For another example, an official named Xu Jun was accused of "slandering the imperial court" and was beheaded just because there was a sentence in the poem "The breeze can't read, so why bother turning over books".

There is a poem by Hu Zhongzao, a bachelor of Hanlin, which says, "A heart is turbid and clear". When Qianlong saw it, he was furious: "What's the purpose of adding the word' turbid' to the word' clear'?" Hu Zhongzao was killed because of the word "turbidity", which is a sense of guilt for his teachers and friends. There was a man named Xu Shukui who wrote a collection of poems called One Pillar Building, in which the phrase "Ming Dynasty was at its zenith, and I went to Beijing in one fell swoop" was defined by Emperor Qianlong as "great rebellion" on the grounds that "morning and night" was read as "dynasty" and "I want to prosper the Ming Dynasty and go to my own dynasty". As a result, not only the dead Xu Shukui and his son were slaughtered, but also Xu's grandson and the proofreader were all executed.
