At the age of 40, he was recommended by the police chief to be appointed as the censor in Beijing. His duty is to "check all officials, visit counties, correct prison sentences and clean up the whole court". Its duties are not only like today's discipline inspection and supervision cadres, but also the responsibility of judicial supervision and rectification of the court atmosphere. Although the official is not high, the power is not small. Later, he was transferred to the county magistrate of Changge County, Henan Province.

Resign (a post/job/position)
According to historical records, when he left his post and was promoted, the local people stopped him and praised him.

Although he was born in a famous family, he lost his father at an early age and was adopted by his uncle at the age of 15. When his stepmother died, he fasted for five days to show filial piety. At home, whenever his parents sometimes can't eat fresh fruits and vegetables, he doesn't try them first. His filial piety is famous in his hometown. At the same time, he is also very eager to learn and make progress. When he was seven, he read all kinds of books. He is good at calligraphy when he grows up.

Palace heritage
In 63 1 year, with the permission of Emperor Taizong, Fang's coffin was moved and buried by his son in the ancestral grave of his hometown in Licheng. The court posthumously awarded him the title of "Duke of Xuzhou and Duke of Linzi County" and appointed the drum music officer from Luoyang to Licheng as the guard of honor. All the insufficient expenses of the counties where the coffin passed were paid by the local government for the memorial ceremony. At the same time, the country also used more than a thousand soldiers to hold funerals and treat relatives and friends kindly. This move to the capital can be said to be a major event in the early Tang Dynasty, which sensationalized the whole country. The square tomb is located in Zhiyang, Zhaoshan, Licheng District, Jinan City. There are existing tombs, tombstones and some stone beasts in the tomb. The tombstone was written by historian Li Baiyao and calligrapher Ou Yangxun at that time. 1977, the tomb was announced as a provincial key cultural relics protection unit in Shandong province.

In the Sui Dynasty, he was appointed as the secretariat and governor of the capital state, and was awarded the title of Sima. Emperor Yang Di acceded to the throne, went to official seclusion, and later granted a captain's official position, and was ordered by Jingyang.
It is said that the funeral was very grand at that time, and officials from Taiwan Province Province and Kyushu made a special trip to pay their respects. When the crowns are connected, the flags are empty. Cars and horses block roads, around colored stones, wells are drained, and nothing grows in the wild. The original stone carvings of Kirin and Weng Zhong in front of the tomb were arranged in an orderly way, and now only the stone sheep and stone horse are left. The Epitaph of Xuzhou in Tang Dynasty written by Li Bai, a famous scholar and librarian in the early Tang Dynasty, is elegant and magnificent. This was inscribed by Ou Yangxun, a famous calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty. The inscription is Lu Feng official script, with sharp font and vigorous brushwork.

The head and main body of this monument were cut from a complete boulder. The inscription is seal script, with 3 lines and 9 characters: "Gongfang Monument of Xuzhou in Tang Dynasty", with 36 lines and more than 2,000 words on the front. Its main content is to praise Fang's family background, resume and character. Because Li Baiyao's father and son and Fang Fang are officials in North Korea at the same time, they know each other's history and achievements like the back of their hands. Coupled with Fang's factors, the inscription is naturally full of praise. So in the last part of the inscription, Li Bai used a long paragraph of "four words and one sentence" to eulogize Fang. The inscription mainly describes the relocation of the capital and the attention and support of the Tang Dynasty to the relocation of the capital, so as to show the identity and status of the parties. Monuments like this have inscriptions on the front, back and even sides, which provide important physical evidence for us to understand the writing format, grammar and seal cutting form of inscriptions in the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, this article was also called "Quan" by later generations.
