Fang chuan
Fang Qiao, Ling Xuan, was born in Linzi, qi zhou. Young, smart, knowledgeable, hardworking and good at writing. In eighteen years, Zhou was promoted to Jinshi and awarded Yu Qiwei. Father's illness lasted for ten years, and Ling Xuan devoted himself to medicated diet and never took off his clothes. When Emperor Taizong fled Weibei, Ling Xuan's aides decided to visit the military gate. As soon as Emperor Taizong saw it, he joined the army in the marching room of Weibei Road, just like an old acquaintance. When Ling Xuan met his bosom friend, he exhausted his heart and knew everything. Every time thieves and robbers fight for treasure, Ling Xuan takes the characters first, which leads to the shogunate. In Athens, there are counselors, and they all lurk fast knots and do their best. Ling Xuan has worked in the Qin government for more than ten years. He has been in charge of account books, and every army has typed account books and watches. He was stationed in Ma Licheng. At first, he had no manuscripts. Gaozu tasted the courtier and said, "This man is well-informed and worthy of appointment. Every time I do something for my son, I will understand people thousands of miles away, and I will still talk to them. " The hidden prince was kissed by Emperor Taizong Ling Xuan and Ruhui, which was very evil. Blame it on Gao zu, who was so unlucky. Prince Yin will also change. Emperor Taizong ordered Sun Chang Wuji to call Ling Xuan and Tathagata, and ordered the Taoist priests to take clothes and sneak into the cabinet to plan things. Emperor Taizong entered the erotic palace, bowed to the right bastard of the prince and gave five thousand silks. In the first year of Zhenguan, Xiao Yu was appointed as the secretariat. On merit, Ling Xuan, Wuji, Du Ruhui, Hou were the top five, promoted to the public, and granted 1,300 households. For three years, I worshipped the Prince, refused to accept it, took photos of Prince Zhan, and served as the minister of rites. Next year, he will replace Sun Chang Wuji as the official of Shangshu, change the title of Duke Wei and supervise the revision of national history. Since it is the competent department, it is sincere and respectful at night and spares no effort. I don't want to lose everything. There is. Mingda officials, decorations, and examination and approval regulations are intended to be lenient. Don't try to prepare for others, don't take advantage of yourself, collect stories as much as possible, don't be humble. Critics call it nice. Emperor Gaozong lived in the Spring Palace, and Prince Ling Xuan was a teacher. He still knows how to save trouble and supervise national history as before. Ask to write A Record of Emperor Taizong of the Emperor Gaozu, which is beautifully praised and given 1500 paragraph. That year, Xuan Lingding's stepmother worried about leaving her job and gave her a burial place in Zhaoling. A few days later, my official was reinstated. Emperor Taizong personally levied Liaodong, ordered Ling Xuan to stay in the capital, and said in his hand, "When I was in Xiao He, I took care of the west." Military equipment, soldiers' food, and ordered punishment were sent. Ling Xuan has repeatedly said that we should not underestimate the enemy, and it is particularly appropriate to be cautious. Looking for the assistant minister of Zhongshu, Chu Suiliang, was rewritten in the Book of Jin. Twenty-three years, driving fortunately Yuhua Palace, when Ling Xuan was ill, the imperial edict remained in Taiwan. And gradually, chase to the palace, drive into the temple, and ascend to the throne. Emperor Taizong shed tears for this, and Ling Xuan also felt that he could not win by swallowing. Send a famous doctor to see a doctor, and still eat royal meals every day. If it is slightly damaged, Taizong is happy to see its color; If you hear about the play, it will be very sad to make a makeover. After illness, I played a lot, digging the garden wall to open the door, and sending envoys to wait for questions. Face to face again, shake hands and say goodbye, I am heartbroken. The crown prince also told it. Xun Qi, 70 years old. Abolish the DPRK for three days. (Biography of Tang Fang)
Liu Fang said: Ling Xuan assisted Taizong to decide the world, and the final phase. Every thirty-two years, the world number is the sage; However, there is no trace to be found, and Germany is coming. Therefore, Emperor Taizong decided to make trouble, and Du (1) did not talk about merit; Wang ② and Wei ③ gave way to remonstrance, while Du Ren was the sage; English (4) and Wei (5) are good at making soldiers and generals, and Du deals with a man as he deals with you, leading to peace and returning things to their original owners. For Tang Zongchen, it is perfect! ("Zi Tongzhi Tang XV")
Fang Qiao, whose name is Ling Xuan, is from Linzi, Jizhou. When I was a child, I was smart and read classics and history books extensively. He is good at cursive script and official script and is good at writing articles. At the age of eighteen, he was elected as a scholar by the state, and Yu Qiwei was awarded an official position by the court. Father's illness lasted for ten months. Ling Xuan's mind was focused on his father's medication and diet. He never took off his clothes and could not sleep well. Emperor Taizong seized the land north of Weihe River, and Ling Xuan rode to the military gate to inquire. As soon as Emperor Taizong saw him, like an old friend, he asked him to join the army as an agent in the marching room of Weibei Road. Ling Xuan met her bosom friend and exhausted all her efforts. There is nothing he knows that he doesn't do at once. Every time the bandits are put down, everyone rushes to find treasures and antiques. Only Ling Xuan first accepted outstanding figures and placed them in the shogunate. When there are counselors, they all secretly agree and express their willingness to do their best for Taizong. Ling Xuan spent more than ten years in the Qin Palace in Li Shimin, and was often responsible for managing official documents. Whenever he writes a military book and plays the throne, he can dismount at once. The words are concise and rich in meaning. First of all, there is no draft. Gaozu once said to his courtiers, "This man knows the opportunity deeply and can be entrusted with a heavy responsibility. Whenever I speak for my son, I will certainly understand people's psychology. Just like talking to each other thousands of miles away. " Li, a recluse, hated Ruhui because of his close relationship with Taizong, and spoke ill of them in front of Gaozu, so he was deported with Ruhui. When Prince Yin (posthumous title of Prince Li) was about to launch a mutiny, Emperor Taizong ordered Wuji to call He Ruhui, told them to put on their robes and secretly brought them into the cabinet to discuss important matters. Taizong was made a prince, Ling Xuan was promoted to the right bastard of the prince, and five thousand silks were given. In the first year of Zhenguan, Ling Xuan took Xiao Yu as the secretariat. Emperor Taizong rewarded the hero with Ling Xuan, Sun Chang Wuji, Du Ruhui, Wei Chijingde and Hou, who were promoted to the Duke of Xingguo and sealed 1,300 households. In the third year of Zhenguan, he was appointed as Prince Shao Shi. He resolutely refused to accept it, acting as the agent of Prince Zhan and concurrently serving as the minister of rites. In the second year, Zuo Bu represented Sun Chang Wuji, made a move for Shangshu, changed the title of Wei Guogong, and edited the national history. Since I became the Chief Superintendent, I have devoted myself day and night, and I don't want everyone to lose their due position. I am as happy to hear the advantages of others as I am to have them. He is sensible and proficient in administrative affairs, and corrects them with literature and classics. He reviewed and revised the law for the purpose of tolerance and stability. He doesn't choose people for perfection, he doesn't ask others for his own strengths, he looks at his own talents, and he doesn't exclude others because of their humble status. Everyone who talks about him praises him as a good man. When he became a prince, Jia became the prince's teacher, still presiding over provincial affairs and supervising the compilation of national history. Soon after, he was commended by the book for writing A Record of the Great Emperor Taizong, and was given a paragraph of 1500. This year, Ling Xuan left his post due to the death of his stepmother, and the court specially left him a cemetery in Zhaoling. Soon, he returned to his official position. When Emperor Taizong personally levied Liaodong, he ordered Ling Xuan to stay in the capital and wrote a letter in his own hand, saying, "You shoulder the heavy responsibility like Xiao He, so I have no worries." The weapons of the army and the food of the soldiers were given to him for handling and dispatching. Ling Xuan wrote many times that you should not underestimate your enemies, especially be alert and careful. Soon, assistant minister Chu Suiliang was ordered to rewrite the Book of Jin. In the twenty-third year of Zhenguan, the emperor visited Yuhua Palace. At that time, Ling Xuan had a relapse, and the emperor ordered him to sleep at the main station. When he was seriously ill, Ling Xuan chased him to Yuhua Palace, took a sedan chair into the temple, and got off the sedan chair near the emperor's throne. Emperor Taizong wept at him, and Ling Xuan was too sad to control himself. Send to a famous doctor for treatment. The official in charge of the emperor's diet provided him with royal food every day. If his illness can be slightly relieved, Taizong will be happy to show his face; If you hear that your illness is getting worse, you will become sad. After his illness worsened, he opened the door by cutting open the palace wall and sent eunuchs to meet him many times. The emperor came in person again, shaking hands and saying goodbye, which was unbearable; The crown prince also went to say goodbye to him. He died soon after he was 70. The court will not sit for three days.
Liu Fang said: Ling Xuan helped Taizong pacify the world and died in the position of prime minister for 32 years. Everyone in the world called him a saint. But I can't describe his greatness, and his virtue can be said to be quite profound. Therefore, Emperor Taizong put down foreign invasion and civil strife, while Fang and Du Ruhui did not talk about their own merits and demerits. Wei Zhi remonstrated, Fang and Du Ruhui remonstrated. Li Shiji and Li Jing are good at governing ministries. Fang and Du Ruhui adopted their opinions, making politics peaceful, but putting goodness in the monarch. It is appropriate to say that they are ministers of the Tang imperial clan.
Du Ruhui, whose name is Keming, is from Jingzhao Ling Du. His grandfather Du was the minister of the Ministry of Industry of the Sui Dynasty, and his father Du Yun was the governor of the Sui Dynasty. Du Ruhui, who has little knowledge and likes to talk about literature and history, is a typical scholar. During the great cause of Yang Di, as an alternate official, he only made up a small official in Fuyang, and soon abandoned his official and went home. When the king of Qin pacified the capital, Cao joined the army and became a soldier of Qin. Soon, the then Prince Li was afraid that there were so many talents in Qin Gong that it would be bad for the future. In the name of the imperial court, he transferred many Li Shimin men and women from Qin Gong to other places. Fang said at that time: "Although there are many people who have left the government, it is not enough to cherish them. Du Ruhui is intelligent and knowledgeable, and he is a genius of Wang Zuo. Your Majesty, if you want to rule the world, you must be this person! " Li Shimin frightened, busy Du Ruhui back. In the process of pacifying the wars of Xue Renguo, Liu Wuzhou, Wang and Dou Jiande, Du Ruhui, as a senior adviser, left a deep impression on the military. Lee is jealous of Du Ruhui. He said to Li Yuanji, king of Qi, "In Qin Gong, the only terrible people are Du Ruhui and Fang Lingxuan." Immediately tell Fang and Du their mistakes and drive them out of the Qin Palace.
Although Du Ruhui was distracted, he sneaked back to Li Shimin to give him advice. After the successful transformation of Xuanwu Gate, it was equal to Fang, and was soon worshipped by Emperor Taizong as the Minister of War and named Cai Guogong. In the early years of Zhenguan, he and Fang presided over the court affairs, formulated laws and regulations, and selected officials, which received rave reviews. In the fourth year of Zhenguan, Du Ruhui was seriously ill. Li Shimin went to his home in person, caressing his tears. Before he died, he regarded his son Du Gou as a servant. Even though the emperor was so precious, Du Ruhui couldn't resist the disease and died at the age of 46. Emperor Taizong wept bitterly and gave him a gift, which was not uncommon. He was named Lai Ye. He said it was a success, and he wrote an inscription. Later, Emperor Taizong ate a cantaloupe and suddenly remembered Du Ruhui. In tears, he sent someone to drink half the food in front of the civil servant's tablet, and from time to time he was given a royal memorial. Every year on the anniversary of Du Ruhui's death, Emperor Taizong sent people to his home to express condolences to his wife and children, and kept his official position. "I finally met grace, and there is nothing wrong with it."
Du Ruhui's second son was the husband of Princess Shang Chengyang, and was later beheaded for participating in the rebellion of Prince Li Chenggan. Du Gou, the eldest son of the Grand Duke, was originally the secretariat of Cizhou, and died in the border field because of his brother's case. I don't know whether Li Shimin was heartbroken because of the rebellion of his third son in his later years and no longer cared about the descendants of this hero.
