What are the main contents of traditional official morality?

1. The concept of public loyalty. Confucian official morality is a "noble person". The so-called "public loyalty for the country" is based on "public". Although there was no clear distinction between public sphere and private sphere in feudal China, the conflicts of interest between family and state, self and group, and self and self existed objectively, which required officials to be "public-oriented", "private-oriented", "public-oriented" and "benefit others for life" when dealing with these conflicts of interest.

2. People-oriented thinking. People-oriented thought is the essence of Confucian official morality. It has a long history in China, and the rulers of past dynasties have been instilling the idea that the people are the foundation of the country into the students before entering the government and the officials after entering politics. If an official wants to govern the country well and develop the society well, he must establish the idea of "people-oriented", have the heart of loving the people and love them as children.

3. Think positively. We should have a fair and just style, be honest and upright, uphold the truth and uphold justice.

4. Clean thinking. "Honest people are the foundation of politics". In ancient China, incorruptibility was the basic moral requirement for officials, that is, not taking ill-gotten gains and not greedy for ill-gotten benefits. "Honesty is the foundation of being an official", which has been proved by countless facts for thousands of years.
