Case 2
Bao Gong is Bao Zheng (999-1062 AD), named Xiren, from Hefei, Luzhou (now Hefei City, Anhui Province). His father Bao Yi was a former imperial minister. San Dafu, after his death, he was awarded the posthumous title of Minister of Punishment. Bao Gong was known for his filial piety and straightforward nature when he was young. In the fifth year of Emperor Renzong's reign in the Song Dynasty, that is, in 1027 AD, he won the Jinshi Scholarship at the age of 28.
He first served as a judge at Dali Temple, and later as the county magistrate of Jianchang (now Yongxiu, Jiangxi Province). Because his parents were old and unwilling to follow him to other places, Bao Gong immediately resigned from his official position and returned home to take care of his parents. His filial piety was praised by officials.
A few years later, his parents passed away one after another, and Bao Gong re-entered his official career. This was done only after the hard persuasion of the villagers. In feudal society, if parents only have one son, then the son cannot leave his parents alone and just go to work as an official in another place. This is against the provisions of feudal law. Under normal circumstances, parents will follow for the sake of their son's future. Or the son and other members of the family may advise. It was rare in the feudal era for parents not to follow their sons to become officials and provide for their retirement, because it meant that their sons had to abide by the constraints of feudal ethics and resign their official positions to take care of themselves. The history books do not specify the specific reason. It may be that his parents were ill and could not bear the bumps on the road, so Bao Gong resigned from his official position.
No matter what the situation is, Bao Gong can take the initiative to resign from his official position, which still shows that he is not the kind of person who is obsessed with officialdom. Filial piety to parents can also serve as an example for some people with low quality today. In the past, most of the stories were about Bao Gong's selflessness, and ignored Bao Gong's filial piety to his parents.
