Bao Gongan

About This Novel
The ninety-five stories of Bao Gong's judgment in "Chinese Classical Literature Series: Bao Gong's Case" are partly collected from folklore, and some are collected from history books, miscellaneous notes and notebook novels. They describe a series of cases involving "human life", "adultery", "thief", "competition" and other matters that Bao Gong tried. Some stories beheaded relatives of the emperor who deserved their lives, some exposed the cruel and vicious local tyrants and evil gentry, some directly attacked corrupt officials who accepted bribes, and some satirized the imperial examination system that harmed literati. The character Bao Gong in the book seems to be the most typical image and ideal of an upright official in the minds of the people. His image of impartiality in law enforcement and integrity is vividly reflected on the page.

Wrong, it's an evaluation
good
It's a very good work. Although it is written in classical Chinese, you can understand it.
