李卫 / Li Wei

李卫 / Li Wei is the Qing official who searches the [[LuLiuliang|吕留良]] household in 11.雍正王朝之大义觉迷：史景迁笔下的千古奇案. The episode presents his operation as theatrical and investigative: he posed as an admirer buying books, entered the family book space, and then seized people, diaries, manuscripts, and printed material.

Li Wei’s role shifts the [[ZengJing|曾静]] case from a letter and interrogation into a broader 清代文字狱 / Qing Literary Inquisition. The direct link between the Lu family and Zeng Jing was thin, but the search made books, students, descendants, and Zhejiang literary networks usable evidence for [[YongzhengEmperor|雍正]]’s political interpretation of the case.
