Liu Daxia was the first in Tianshun's third year (1459). Tianshun eight years (1464), was elected as Jishi Shu. In the first year of Chenghua (1465), the Imperial Academy offered to leave his post, and he asked to be an official, so he was appointed as the minister of war, and he was promoted to a doctor. He is familiar with military affairs, and the long-standing abuses of the palace have been eliminated. Most of Liu Daxia's performances are in line with the emperor's will and are regarded as the right-hand man by the Minister of War. Wang Zhihao invited Bian Gong. After Li went on a pilgrimage, Hao was defeated by Laos and wanted to take Li Hao alive. He told Xian Zong that he wanted the documents of the Ming Dynasty expedition to Annan. Liu Daxia hid and secretly said to Yu Zijun, the minister of the Ministry of War: "As soon as the war broke out, the southwest was immediately eaten away." Yu Zijun came to his senses and the matter had to stop.
Be wrongly imprisoned
North Korea's Li Dynasty paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty with crows, and later asked to change from Yalu River. Shangshu was ready to agree to his request. Liu Daxia said, "Ancestors didn't know the passage of Yalu River, but it may have another meaning to bypass several big towns from Raven Stork Pass. Can't be approved The court did not grant this request. Ren Jingwei, the younger brother of eunuch A Jiu, was whipped by Liu Daxia for committing a crime. A Jiu held a grudge and slandered Xian Zongjin, which led to Liu Daxia's arrest and imprisonment. After the east factory's attempt, there was no result. Eunuch Wynn tried his best to save Liu Daxia and was released after being sentenced to 20 sticks. After his father died, Liu Daxia went to the funeral overnight.
Outstanding achievement
In the second year of Hongzhi (1489), Liu Daxia's mourning period expired and he was promoted to the right ambassador of Guangdong. Tianzhou and Sicheng were unstable, and Liu Daxia warned them that things were solved smoothly. After Mountain Thief, Liu Daxia waged a campaign against Mountain Thief. He ordered his men to take them alive, only to kill them if they found out they were thieves, and half of them survived. Change it to Zuo Buzhen and transfer it to Zhejiang.
In the spring of the sixth year of Hongzhi (1493), the Yellow River burst its banks in Zhangqiu, and the emperor sent a letter to Bo to select talented officials to govern it. Wang Shu, the official minister, recommended Liu Daxia and promoted Liu Daxia as the right deputy capital. After arrival, Jia Luhe was dredged in Huanglinggang, and Sunjiadu and Sifuying were dredged in the upstream to divide the water potential. From Qiancheng via Dongming and Changyuan to Xuzhou, a long embankment was built, with a total length of 360 miles. After the flood was cured, Zhangqiu Town was renamed "Anping Town". Xiaozong rewarded Liu Daxia and gave him a praise book. Call him Zuo Duyu, and serve as Zuo Assistant Minister of the Household Department.
In the tenth year of Hongzhi (1497), Liu Daxia was appointed as an imperial envoy of the capital and went to Fu Xuan to handle the issue of pay. Shang Jing said to him: "The children of powerful families participate in buying and selling grain for personal gain, and don't ask for trouble because of them in honest and frank." Liu Daxia said, "Deal with what's going on in the world with reason instead of emotion, and then solve it when I arrive." At the beginning, the plug had to be filled with millet and stones to buy, and grass and grass had to be collected. Therefore, eunuchs and military officials can manipulate the market and make huge profits. Liu Daxia ordered that if there is food and grass, all bales of straw and millet stones are allowed to be bought and sold, and the powerful families should make profits. In less than two months, the government has accumulated more than enough reserves, benefiting the border people.
In the autumn of the eleventh year of Hongzhi (1498), Liu Daxia even resigned from his third uncle. After returning to China, he built a thatched cottage under Dongshan and studied in it, which was called "Mr. Dongshan" by people at that time. In the 13th year of Hongzhi (1500), courtiers recommended Liu Daxia one after another, and he was appointed as the suggestion of Youdu, in charge of the military affairs of Guangdong and Guangxi. The messenger was sent to the door, and Liu Daxia set off with two servants. People from Guangdong and Guangxi came to see Miss Liu Daxia and were very happy to learn that he was coming to work. After Liu Daxia took office, he reorganized the bureaucracy, reduced the supply of official fees, prohibited guarding officers and private sergeants, and gradually reduced thieves.
In the fifteenth year of Hongzhi (1502), Liu Daxia was appointed as the minister of war, but he refused many times before accepting it. Soon, Xiao Zong summoned him, and Xiao Zong said, "I hired you several times. Why did you say you were ill several times? " Liu Daxia kowtowed and said, "I am old and sick. Seeing that the people of the whole country are poor, if anything happens, the responsibility lies with the Ministry of War. I can't measure it myself, so I quit. " Xiao Wen was silent. Strong winds in Nanjing and Fengyang uprooted trees, and floods occurred in Henan, Huguang and other places, causing the capital to suffer for a long time. Liu Daxia listed all the people who belonged to the old system left by our ancestors and harmed the military and civilians, and submitted it for abolition. In February of the seventeenth year of Hongzhi (1504), Liu Daxia called again. Filial piety ordered the relevant departments to report cases that should be executed and abolished, and the relevant departments reported them truthfully. The courtiers accused Chen of sixteen things, which were not conducive to the powerful. So the dignitaries tried their best to stop it, and Xiaozong couldn't make up his mind and discussed it at the next court meeting. Liu Daxia and others said: "All affairs belong to the foreign ministers of the imperial court and are approved. The discussion was verified by a slight involvement of powerful people. I am stupid, I don't know why? " After a long time, I got the news: "I will report the official name, and young craftsmen and chefs will reduce three buckets of rice every month;" Adding eunuchs and Li Si supervisors to verify and report; Four guards, the royal horse supervisor will report to the roster. The rest will be dealt with according to the previous discussion. "Weaving fast, salary alone saved a lot of money, and the disadvantages of false reporting by samurai were greatly reduced. Under the emperor's command, this is a happy moment. In the past, consorts and near-fortunate people were honored not for their achievements, but for the personal kindness of the emperor. Xiaozong knew it was harmful to politics and tried to cheer up. Because of the disaster, they appeared many times, and they told the ministers to make every Chen's fault. Liu Daxia played Chen Shu again.
In June, the 15th year of Hongzhi (1502), Liu Daxia played the ten evils of Chen for the second time and asked to resign and return to his hometown. Filial piety refused, asking him to report all the disadvantages that should be eliminated in more detail. Therefore, Liu Daxia listed the hardships of the North and South Army in carrying grain by turns, and the border guards were tired and tired and would be deducted. Xiaozong summoned Liu Daxia in the bento hall and asked, "Qing said earlier that the people in the world are rich and poor. Customary law has existed since ancient times. Why is this happening now? " Liu Daxia replied: "That is to say, it was not collected in the usual way. If you bring eucalyptus from Guangxi every year and bring incense and medicine from Guangdong, the cost will be tens of thousands, and the rest can be imagined. " Filial piety asked the army again, and he replied, "As poor as the people." Xiaozong said, "If you live on monthly grain, you will have grain. Why are you poor? " Liu Daxia replied: "Deduct more than half of his handsome, why is he not poor?" Xiaozong sighed: "I have been in power for a long time, and I still don't know how to be a gentleman when the soldiers and civilians in the world are poor!" So the imperial edict was banned. At that time, Xiao Zong was determined to be peaceful, taking Liu Jian as a record, and Ma Wensheng led six departments to be teachers and officials (Prince Shao Shi, who was the first minister of the Ministry of War, and later changed to the minister of the official department), which was known as "all upright and prosperous". Filial piety found Liu Daxia honest and rigorous, skilled, and especially trusted him. He was summoned several times to examine the case, and Liu Daxia did his best for Xiaozong in everything.
There was a small war in Datong, and Xiaozong listened to the eunuch Miao Kui and prepared to send troops. Cabinet Liu Jian and others tried to dissuade him, but Xiao Zong still hesitated. He called Liu Daxia and asked, "Qing is in Guangdong and Guangxi. Do you know Miao Kui's contribution to destroying Yansui's nest? " Liu Daxia replied: "I heard that only a dozen women and children were arrested, and Wei Dequan of the imperial court surrendered. If not, the consequences will be hard to say. " Xiaozong was silent for a long time and asked, "Emperor Taizong (Judy, Ming Chengzu) has been in and out of the fortress frequently. Why not now? " Liu Daxia replied: "Your majesty's talent is certainly not worse than Taizong's, but the generals and military forces are far less than Taizong's. How can it be said that it is easy for Qi Huangong (Qiu Fu) to entrust hundreds of thousands of soldiers to the desert? I guess the best policy now is only defense. " Daishan, the capital, also agreed from the side. Xiaozong said soberly, "If you hadn't advised me, I would have almost missed the big event." So he didn't send troops again.
Lu Lin, the indigenous leader of Zhuanglang, was appointed as the deputy commander of Gansu Province, but he failed to be promoted to general. Rely on the force of the headquarters and return to Zhuanglang without authorization. The courtiers were worried about his change and wanted to give Lu Lin a big seal, but they also wanted to call him back to the capital and put him in an unimportant place. Liu Daxia asked for a reward for his past loyalty and let Lu Lin live in seclusion. Lu Lin has always been fierce and cruel, losing everyone's heart. Without the military power, he couldn't do anything, and finally died of depression.
Filial piety wants to be stationed near the capital as a left and right assistant. Liu Daxia said, "Baoding has the Jingshi Department in charge of the five guards, which is the meaning of the ancestors. Please send back the drill sergeant, with 10,000 soldiers as the western guards and the soldiers stationed in Miyun and Jizhou as the eastern guards. " Filial piety approved it. The eunuch who supervised the Beijing battalion was indignant at the loss of military power and posted small posters on the palace gate. Filial piety showed this to Liu Daxia and said, "Whether outsiders can come in or not must be done by people who don't want to lose their military power." The plot failed.
Xiaozong once said to Liu Daxia, "I always want to ask Qing to discuss things, but I'm afraid I'll give up because I'm beyond your authority." If something is implemented or stopped in the future, you can present it with a post (file). Liu Daxia kowtowed and said, "As for the decision on this matter, the delivery department should consult the cabinet ministers internally. Exposure posts are easy to breed ills and cannot be used as an example for future generations. "Xiao always said yes. I asked again; " When will the world be at peace? "Liu Daxia replied:" You can't be too hasty in seeking treatment, but personnel and administration are all discussed with the minister. If it is carried out properly and for a long time, the world will naturally be peaceful. "Liu Daxia once took the opportunity to mention the dangers of guarding eunuchs in all directions. When Xiaozong asked for details, Liu Daxia replied: "I see that the supply of civil and military officials in Guangdong and Guangxi is less than one guard, and its cost is known. "Xiao Zong said," These things have been fixed by our ancestors for a long time. How can they be abolished at once? However, from now on, you must be as honest as Jacky and Mai Xiu, or you will be fired. " Liu Daxia kowtowed and said yes. Every time Liu Daxia was summoned, he knelt in front of the imperial bed. Xiaozong looked around, and all the attendants retreated. Liu Daxia sometimes answers questions for a long time and is too tired to get up. Xiaozong called Li Rong, the eunuch of Li Si, to help. One morning, Liu Daxia was supposed to be on duty, but Xiao Zong happened not to see it. The next day, he warned Liu Daxia: "Didn't the Qing Dynasty go to court yesterday? "Worried about the censor, I didn't summon you immediately." It is so deeply loved. In particular, he was given jade belts, unicorn clothes, gold coins and fine wine, which continued until 18 years old.
Return to one's own country
After the death of Xiao Zong, Wu Zong ascended the throne, and Liu Daxia requested by testamentary edict to remove eunuchs who were not in the quota. Since only removed all state qi yuan. Liu Daxia also advocated replacing 24 eunuchs and reducing eunuchs in the imperial city and the capital, but it was not accepted. Soon, Liu Daxia listed 683 martial ministers who should be eliminated and got approval. Forty-eight men, including General Xue, should also be dismissed from office. Xue and others deliberately refused to serve in the palace to anger Wu Zong. Wu immediately ordered the restoration of Xue and other official positions, and asked the Ministry of War to answer in detail, intending to aggravate the guilt. Eunuch Ning Jin kowtowed and said, "These are the last words of the late emperor. Your majesty included them in the imperial edict, so it is not appropriate to ask questions." Wu Zongcai gave up the matter. Eunuch Wissing was dismissed from office for a long time because of infighting in the last years of Chenghua. At this point, he can maintain Zhou Jun by buttering up. Officials have remonstrated, and Liu Daxia and others have argued for many times, but Wu Zong ignored them. In the spring of Zheng Deyuan's year (1506), Liu Daxia played again: "The guards eunuchs such as Dong Rang of Jiangxi, Liu Lang of Jizhou, Liu Yun of Shaanxi, Zhu Yun of Shandong, etc. were particularly greedy and cruel, and requested to be examined and punished." Wu zong is not happy. Liu Daxia knew that his opinion had not been adopted and petitioned to resign several times.
In May of the same year, Wu Zong issued a letter to seal his Prince Taibao, allowing him to bring letters, horses and chariots to his hometown, and to supply food and servants according to the old system. Wang Yi and Zhang You asked Liu Daxia to stay, and the official department also asked Liu Daxia to stay, which was ignored by Wu Zong.
Die peacefully at home
Liu Daxia is honest, trusted by Xiaozong, and selfless in serving the country, which has restrained many dignitaries. Once asked for a strict assessment of the warriors, Liu Jin hated it. Liu Yu also hated Liu Daxia, so she went to Liu Jin with Jiao Fang and said, "Copying Liu Daxia's house can get two-tenths of the border fee." In September of the year of Zheng Deyuan (1508), he was arrested and put in jail on Sunday. Liu Jin wanted to be sentenced to death for the crime of radical change in the summer, but Yu Shi Tugan disagreed. Liu Jin swore, "Even if I don't die, can I not keep the border?" Li Dongyang mediated, and Liu Jin found out that Liu Daxia's family was poor, so he was sentenced to the most remote frontier defense. At first, he planned to defend Guangxi. Jiao Fang said, "Are you going to send him back?" So I changed my garrison to Suzhou. Liu Daxia, 73 years old, was dressed in cloth and kowtowed through the Daming Gate. Everyone watching sighed and cried, and my father and people brought baskets to eat. Everywhere Liu Daxia went, people went on strike to burn incense and wished Liu Shangshu survival. When they arrived in the garrison, all departments were afraid of offending Liu Jin and did not send meals to express their condolences. Confucian scholars only give him food. Speaking of practice, Liu Daxia always takes Ge into the team. The supervisor repeatedly refused, and Liu Daxia said, "Soldiers should serve." He only brought one servant. Someone asked him why he didn't bring his children and grandchildren. He said: "When I was an official, I didn't benefit my descendants. Now that I am old and punished, how can I bear to let them die with me in the garrison? " Liu Daxia has been sent to the frontier defense, and Liu Jin has punished him twice for sending Miser by other things.
In the summer of the fifth year of Zheng De (15 1 1), Liu Daxia was pardoned and returned to his hometown. Liu Jin was killed, the official was reinstated and retired. Wang Xiang, an imperial envoy of the Qing army, requested to restore Liu Daxia's monthly salary and annual service, and hired his descendants. The eunuch in charge has always hated him and refused. After Liu Daxia returned to China, he taught his children to farm for a living. If there is any surplus, it will be distributed to the old clan. I finished my epitaph in advance and said, "Don't let people use beautiful words to make me feel ashamed underground."
Anecdotal allusions and appearances
About Liu Daxia's appearance, we can know from the ten-year map of Shen Jia in the 16th year of Hongzhi (1503). At that time, Liu Daxia was 68 years old, with a slightly square face and white hair and beard, sitting on his right knee with a belt in his left hand.
Hide history
When he was in Ming Xianzong, a eunuch suggested that Xian Zong should follow the story of the Ming Dynasty's ancestor and go to the Western Ocean again. Some historical books in the Ming Dynasty, such as Wan Biao's Burning Ai Ji and Yan Congjian's Zhou Zizhi, recorded Liu Daxia's hiding of Zheng He's files on his voyages to the West, while Gu Jieyuan's Remarks to Visitors said that Liu Daxia burned Zheng He's files on his voyages to the West.
Collect the rest of the money
Liu Daxia came to ride on the sunny sand, and the scenery was bleak to see the credit. There are several temples in front of Baiyun, and there are several villages with flowing water and wild people. It's still spring in Ti Ying Villa, so it's not inclined to go to the western hills. Looking back, I don't know where to go, and the Jiuchong Palace is separated by a cloud of smoke. -Liu Daxia's "Xishan Road in Ming Dynasty"
