Abstract
In 1688, the Kangxi emperor (r.1661–1723) signaled that he was willing to receive impeachments against officials that were based on hearsay. Guo Xiu 郭琇 (1638–1715) responded to this signal with impeachments of some of the most important figures at court. The history of these impeachments demonstrates specific priorities of the Kangxi reign.
