During his official career, he was not afraid of powerful people and did not love money. He led the citizens in fighting floods. He is known as "extremely Cao". Because of his excellent performance, he entered the Ministry of Industry in Nanjing and then moved to Guangzhou, where Zhao was refused a bribe and was punished. So cao kui was falsely accused by an imperial envoy. However, due to his good political achievements, he was promoted to be the deputy history of the governor and the army. Cao kui was poor all his life. After resigning in his later years and returning to his hometown, the villagers took his name as the township name, hence the name Shaxi.

2. Han Jiting: The army of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Real name Ji, born in Shaxi, Taicang, lives in Hexi, Hengli, north of the city. His parents died and he was raised by his sister-in-law.

When the information reached Shaxi, people were in a panic. The squires in the town want to raise money to pay their teachers, but no one pays them. Han Wenzhi volunteered to shoulder this heavy responsibility, and everyone encouraged him at the same time. Han received his salary and made a detour to the north of Suzhou, where he was educated so that he could see Zhongjun. Han asked to join the Taiping Army and immediately agreed. From then on, Han was named Jiting. Later, Han moved to Suzhou, Kunshan, Taicang, Changshu and other places, made meritorious military service repeatedly, and was gradually promoted to the army.

After shaxi town was incorporated into the territory of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, it collected grain every winter. Among them, only Gong and Fan Ershen refused to pay, and the law did not allow South Korea to demonstrate. Gong and Fan Er people hate Korea and wait for revenge. After the failure of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Han shaved his hair and changed his clothes, and lived in Shaxi country. When Gong and Fan learned about it, they reported it to the official of Taicang State and were arrested and imprisoned. Han was bullied and blackmailed by corrupt officials, tortured and killed on Chengzhou Bridge, and his property was confiscated. The Han Tomb is located in the north of Shaxi, east of Hengli River, near Beidaoyuan.
