ABSTRACT:He Guizhen was a successful candidate in the highest imperial examinations of Daoguang reign, who came from Shizong county of Yunnan province. In the thirtieth years of Daoguang reign, he was ordered to work in the Forbidden City, where his knowledge was paid much attention by Xianfeng emperor, and he was not only as the Fujun prince's teacher,but also had a close relationship with Xianfeng emperor. While after Xianfeng emperor was enthroned, he was not popular anymore because he always expressed what he wanted to directly. In the year of 1854, he was sent to Anhui province to repress the Taiping Army, finally he was dead there. Nine years later, on Zen Guofang's request, the Qing government redressed He Guizhen's grievance, and he was conferred the posthumous name as" Wenzhen".
