Yao Silian, whose courtesy name is Jianzhi, was born in Yongzhou ten thousand years ago. Fu Cha was the Minister of the Ministry of Official Affairs of Chen; when he entered the Sui Dynasty, he passed through the ranks of Prince Neisheren, Secretary Cheng, and Bei Jianggong. He studied both Confucianism and history, and was more important than the three generations. Chen died, and Cha moved to Guanzhong from Wuxing. Si Lian Shao received Han history from his father, and he was able to pass down the family business. He was diligent in learning and had few desires, and he never mentioned the family property. In the Chen Dynasty, he was the chief administrator of Yangzhou. When he entered the Sui Dynasty, he joined the army in the palace of the Han Dynasty. Ding's father was worried about being dismissed from his post. At the beginning, the inspector was in Chenchang Xiu Liang and Chen Ershi, but before they were completed, he ordered Si Lian to continue his ambition before his death. Ding's stepmother was worried, and her hut was next to the tomb, destroying it and adding people to it. Serve as a judicial assistant in Hejian County. Si Lian submitted the last words of Chen's father, and there was an edict allowing him to continue them into "Liang" and "Chen Shi". Emperor Yang also ordered Cui Zujun, a resident of the living room, to compile the "District Yu Tu Zhi". Later, he served as an attendant to Wang You. The Huiyi division conquered the capital, and the officials of the government rushed to the throne. They only wanted to serve the king with integrity and never left his side. When the soldiers ascended to the palace, Si Lian said sternly: "Tang Gong has done justice, and this is the Kuang royal family. It is not appropriate for your ministers to be rude to the king." Everyone obeyed his words, so they lined up the steps. Emperor Gaozu heard this and was righteous. He allowed him to help you to your Excellency Shunyang, and left with tears in his eyes. The spectators sighed and said: "He is a loyal and martyr. A benevolent person is brave, that's what it means!" Gaozu accepted Zen and taught literature to the King of Qin. Later, when Taizong was conquering Xu Yuanlang, Si Lian was in Luoyang. Taizong talked calmly about the fall of the Sui Dynasty, and sighed with emotion: "Yao Silian is not afraid of weapons, and he knows the important things. How can I ask the ancients to add more!" Three hundred paragraphs of the object were left behind, and the book said: "I want to be honest and righteous, so I made this gift." Xun Yin became a bachelor of literature. Taizong entered the erotic palace and moved the prince to wash his horse. At the beginning of Zhenguan period, he moved to Zhulang and became a bachelor of Hongwen Hall. He wrote about his image and listed it in the "Illustration of Eighteen Scholars", which made literary Chu Liang praise him, saying: "He is determined and diligent, and he records his words and records. He died in danger and continued to uphold the customs." Three years later, he was ordered to serve as secretary. Wei Zheng, the supervisor, also wrote two histories of Liang and Chen. Silian also picked up the Liang history from Xie Jiong and other families and continued it into his father's book. He also deduced Chen events, deleted the old history compiled by Yibo Zong and Gu Yewang, and compiled fifty volumes of "Liang Shu" and thirty volumes of "Chen Shu". Although Wei Zheng edited the general treatise and edited the articles, he thought of the merits of being honest. He gave him five hundred pieces of colorful silk and added Tongzhi and Sanqi as regular attendants. Si Lian was treated with courtesy because of the old vassal residence. He often sent secret reports about his political successes and failures, and Si Lian also spoke out without hiding anything. Emperor Taizong was lucky enough to be in Jiucheng Palace. Si Lian advised him: "It is lucky to leave the palace and travel around. What happened to Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han was certainly not the work of Yao, Shun, Yu and Tang." His words were very precise. Emperor Taizong said: "I have a disease of qi, and when I feel hot, I have trouble breathing. I am not in a good mood to travel and reward myself." Therefore, he was given fifty bolts of silk. In the ninth year, he became a regular servant of Sanqi and was given the title of male from Fengcheng County. Died in eleven years. Taizong deeply mourned and cherished him. After deposing the emperor for one day, he gave it to Taichang Qing, with a posthumous title of Kang and a burial place in Zhaoling. When the son is at peace, when he is an official, he will give up on others. There are other legends about Zi Xuan and Ju Ping.
Yan Zhen, courtesy name Shigu, was born in Yongzhou ten thousand years ago and was the grandson of the minister of Huangmen of Qi Dynasty. He first lived in Langye and served as an official in Jiangzuo. Later, after the events of Zhou and Qi, Qi was destroyed and he first settled in Guanzhong. His father, Silu, was known for his academic skills. At the beginning of his martial arts career, he joined the army in the Qin Palace Records Office. He has inherited the family business from the ancient master, is well-read, is especially good at exegesis, and is good at writing. During the reign of Renshou in the Sui Dynasty, he was recommended by Li Gang, the Minister Zuocheng, and was awarded the title of Anyang Wei. Shangshu Zuo Pushe Yang Su saw that his master was weak and frail in his old age, so he said: "How can I be able to control Anyangju County?" Shigu said: "How can I use an ox knife to cut a chicken?" Su was surprised. When you get to the official fruit, you can smell it with Qianli. At that time, Xue Daoheng was the general manager of Xiangzhou. He had an old relationship with Emperor Gaozu, and he liked his talents. He wrote some articles and tried to correct his flaws and diseases, and he was very close to him. Looking for relief from sitting, he returned to Chang'an. He was not allowed to be transferred for ten years. His family was poor and he made a career as a professor.
During the uprising, Shigu went to Changchun Palace to pay an audience and was granted the title of official of Chaosan. From Pingjing City, he worshiped the Dunhuang Duke's literature, moved to the living room, and then moved to the Zhongshu room, specializing in secrets. At that time, the military and the state had many affairs, and all the imperial edicts were taken care of. Shi Guda was good at political theory, and his work of recording and reporting was not available in time. Emperor Taizong Jianzuo was promoted to be the Minister of Zhongshu, and was granted the title of Male of Langxie County. Resigning due to mother's worries. After serving Qian, he became the Minister of Zhongshu again. When you are more than 10 years old, you can avoid sitting around. Taizong regarded the classics as a long-lasting sage, and the writing was incorrect, so he ordered Shigu to examine the Five Classics in his secretary's office. Shigu made many corrections, and after the completion, he published it. Taizong sent other Confucian scholars to discuss it in detail. At that time, the Confucian scholars had been practicing it for a long time, but they all rejected it. Scholars from ancient times often cited ancient and modern texts from Jin and Song Dynasties, and responded with detailed explanations and detailed evidence, all of which expressed their ideas. All scholars were impressed. So he served as a regular attendant of Tongzhilang and Sanqi, and issued the book he prescribed to the world, so that scholars could learn from it. In the seventh year of Zhenguan, he paid homage to the secretary and the young eunuch, and published the special canon. All the strange books are difficult to write, and those who are confused by them will analyze them according to their doubts and find out the source. At that time, more and more underachievers were introduced to the school, who learned from the ancients and suppressed the old school. They were the first to gain power. Even wealthy businessmen and big businessmen also introduced them. The material theory said that they accepted bribes, so they became the governor of Chenzhou. Before he started, Taizong cherished his talent and said, "Your knowledge is excellent, but it is not allowed by the Qing Dynasty to serve in an official position personally. I will take this gift for you. I will serve as your official post in the past." If you can't bear to give up, you should deeply discipline yourself and encourage yourself.
"So I resumed my duties as Secretary and Young Supervisor. Shigu was not only responsible for his talents, but also early in his efforts. He was tired of being appointed and frequently condemned. He felt very depressed. He closed the door and kept quiet, kept away guests, and set his sights on the garden pavilion. However, he continued to search for ancient relics and artifacts, and he was ordered to write the "Five Rites" with the doctors. In the eleventh year, the "Rites" were completed, and he was appointed as his son in the East Palace. Mingshi's ancient annotation of Ban Gu's "Book of Han" has detailed explanations and is highly valued by scholars. It was compiled by Emperor Taizong in the Secret Pavilion and given to him 200 pieces of ancient artifacts and a good horse in the fifteenth year of Emperor Taizong's reign. According to the imperial edict, something was going to happen in Mount Tai. The ministers, ministers and Confucian scholars made detailed notes on the rituals. Wei Ting, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Linghu Defen, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, were appointed as Zen envoys. After referring to the rituals, commentators at that time came up with heresy. : "I compiled the Notes on Fengchan Rituals in the spring of the eleventh year. At that time, many Confucian scholars reviewed the details and thought it was appropriate. "So he ordered the ministers to decide whether it was possible or not, and he mostly followed the ancient teachings, but it didn't work. He moved to the secretary's supervisor and became a bachelor of Hongwen Hall after studying in ancient times. In the 19th year, he made a tour to the east and died of Taoism at the age of sixty-five. His posthumous title was: Dai has a collection of sixty volumes. His annotations on "Han Shu" and "Ji Jiu Zhang" became popular in the world in the third year of Yonghui. Eight volumes of "Zhengsu". Emperor Gaozong issued an edict to the Secretary Pavilion and still gave him fifty pieces of Yang Ting silk. During the Zhenguan period, he repeatedly admonished the officials and criticized the ministers. When he was a minister of the Ministry of Rites, he was sick and sick. Emperor Taizong often gave him medicine because of his benevolent nature. He died in admiration. His uncle, Shi Gu, traveled to the Qin Dynasty, and he moved to Lianzhou as governor in the early days of martial arts. At that time, Liu Heitai was a man in Linyi County. At that time, many people were violent and disrespectful, and the customs were not stable. . The song in Yili says: "Yan Youdao in Lianzhou is of the same village and old age. Love others like a child, and do not kill grass that is out of season. "The Emperor Gaozu worked hard to write the seal. He worshiped the governor of Yunzhou and died in the official position. He wrote twelve volumes of "Hanshu Jueji", which is called "Hanshu Jueji" by scholars. Later scholars also used ancient annotations of "Hanshu", and they also took their meaning.
Linghu Defen, a native of Huayuan, Yizhou, was the son of Shaoqing Xi in the Sui Dynasty. The city chief did not take office due to the chaos in the country. After the establishment of Yi Ban, King Shentong of Huai'an took over the Taiping Palace and claimed to be the general manager. Gao Zu entered the customs and became the chief minister's office. In the first year of Wude's reign, he was transferred to the living room. In the fifth year, he was promoted to Secretary Cheng, and he and his attendants Chen Shuda and others were ordered to write "Yi Wen Lei Ju". Emperor Gaozu asked Defen, "Why are the husbands wearing crowns and women having hair buns competing to be taller?" "Yes?" He replied: "On the human body, the crown is the top decoration, so the ancients gave it to all the kings." In the past, at the end of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the king was weak and the ministers were strong. The ladies and gentlemen on the left side of the Yangtze River all wore small clothes and large skirts. After Wu ascended the throne in the Song Dynasty, the monarch's moral dignity and the system of clothes also changed. This is a sign of recent events. "Gaozu Ranzhi. During the period of mourning and chaos, the scriptures disappeared, and Defen asked for the purchase of suicide notes. He added more money and silk, bought more regular scripts, and ordered them to be written. Over the past few years, a group of books were prepared. Defen tried to speak calmly to Gaozu. He said: "I have seen that in modern times, most of them have no official history, but Liang, Chen and Qi still have written records. In the Zhou and Sui Dynasties, the great cause was disrupted and many ruins were left behind. Today, the ears and eyes are still connected, and there is still something to rely on. If it is updated more than ten years later, the deeds may have been lost. Your Majesty, having received Zen in the Sui Dynasty, inherited the Zhou family's calendar and the achievements of the second ancestor of the country, and was in the Zhou Dynasty. If literature and history do not exist, how can we learn from the present and the past? I am ignorant, and please revise it. "The Emperor Gaozu read his memorial and issued an edict:
The preface to the canon, the historian's record, the pros and cons, and all possible adaptations. Therefore, it is divided into righteous categories, punishes evil and encourages good, learns more about the past, and draws lessons from it. In the future, after the fall of Fuxi, the Zhou and Qin Dynasties came to pass, and the Three Kingdoms were ordered to do so. By the time of the Jin and Song Dynasties, the records were recorded. Since then, the Wei Dynasty has moved to the south, taking advantage of the opportunity, and the Zhou, Sui, and Zen dynasties have been in charge of the Liang Dynasty. The clan claimed the state and occupied Huaihai; Qi moved to Guding, and Chen established the emperor's ancestral line. They all claimed to be Zhengshuo, carried out year-round sacrifices, had different emblems, and deleted etiquette. Famous ministers and outstanding scholars have made great achievements. However, the slips have not been compiled, and the records of Xianque have accumulated, and the rumors and customs have been changed. A person can establish a code of ethics and stick to the constitution forever. Zhong Chen Shuda, secretary Cheng Linghu Defen, Taishi Ling Yu Jian can write Zhou History, Zhongshu Ling Feng Deyi, Zhongshu Sheren Yan Shigu can write Sui History, Dali Qing Cui Shanwei, and Zhongshu Sheren Kong Shaoan , Prince Xima Xiao Deyan can compile the history of Liang Dynasty, Prince Zhan Shi Pei Ju, and the official doctor Zu Xiaosun, former secretary Cheng Wei Zheng can compile the history of Qi, Secretary Supervisor Dou Jing, Gai Shizhong Ouyang Xun, and Qin Wang Literary Yao Silian can compile the history of Chen . The affairs should be checked in detail, and the old news should be widely collected. The meaning should not be published, and the calligraphy should not be hidden.
Yu et al. received the imperial edict for several years, but they could not let it go. In the third year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong ordered the compilation of the Zhou Dynasty. He ordered Defen and his secretary Lang Cenwen to compile the history of the Zhou Dynasty. Li Baiyao, a member of Zhongshushe, compiled the history of the Qi Dynasty. Lang Yao Silian compiled the history of the Liang Dynasty and Chen Dynasty. His secretary Wei Zheng edited the history of the Sui Dynasty. Together with Shangshu Zuopu Shefang Xuanling, director of the history of various dynasties. It was agreed that since Wei Shou and Wei Yan had two families in the history of Wei, they had already been prepared in detail, so they would not be repaired. Defen also invited Master Cui Ren, the imperial censor in the palace, to assist in compiling the history of the Zhou Dynasty. Defen still knew the history of Liang, Chen, Qi and Sui. The origin of Wude's creation and compilation began with Defen. In the sixth year, he was promoted to Minister of Rites, concurrently studied national history, and was given the title of Peng Yangnan. In ten years, he was given four hundred pieces of silk to compile the history of Zhou Dynasty. In the eleventh year, he completed the "New Rites" and was promoted to the title of son. He also wrote "Clan Chronicles" and was given two hundred pieces of silk. In the fifteenth year, he became the crown prince's concubine. If you accept Qian's defeat, you will be removed as usual. In the eighteenth year, he became the governor of Yazhou and was exempted from official duties. Xun Youzhao revised the "Book of Jin", and Fang Xuanling ordered De Fen to pre-edit it. At that time, there were 18 fellow practitioners, and De Fen was elected as the leader. The system was mostly determined by Yan. The book is completed, except for the secretary and the young supervisor.
In the first year of Yonghui, he was ordered to write laws and decrees. He was reinstated as the minister of the Ministry of Rites and a bachelor of Hongwenguan. He supervised the compilation of national history and "Historical Records of the Five Dynasties". He moved to Taichangqing and was also a bachelor of Hongwen Hall. When Emperor Gaozong came to the throne, he paid close attention to political affairs. He summoned his ministers and scholars from the Hongwen Academy to the Zhonghua Hall and asked, "Which is the king's way? Domineering? And which one is the priority?" Defen said to him: "The king's way is governed by virtue, and the domineering is governed by punishment. Since then, The three kings have ascended, and all have followed the kingly way; only Qin has used hegemony, and the Han have practiced it in a mixed manner; Wei and Jin have fallen, and both kings and hegemons have lost their power. Zong said: "What is the most important thing about politics in what we are doing now?" Defen replied: "In ancient times, when it came to politics, they had to clear their minds and simplify their affairs, and this was the basis. Today, there is no danger in the world. The most important way to govern is to reduce taxes and conscripts. "Gaozong said: "The way of government is to do nothing." He also asked: "Why did Yu and Tang prosper? Jie and Zhou. Why did they die?" Defen replied: "The Biography says: 'Yu and Tang sinned against themselves, and their prosperity also flourished; Jie and Zhou sinned, and their death was also sudden.' The two masters confused Meixi and Daji, and killed them. The admonishment was that the punishment of cannons and burning was the reason for his death. "Gaozong was very pleased, so he gave each of them a silk ribbon. In the fourth year, he moved to the state to offer wine and practice Zhenguan. Thirteen years later, he recorded his merits and was awarded four hundred items and was awarded a bachelor's degree in Chongxian Hall. Xun also wrote thirty volumes of "Records of Emperor Gaozong" and became a duke. In the second year of Longshuo's reign, I asked him to become an official, and he was granted the title of "Doctor Jin Ziguanglu". He died at home in the first year of Qianfeng's reign at the age of eighty-four. His posthumous title was Xian. In his later years, Defen was particularly diligent in writing, and he participated in all compilations for the country.
Since Wude died, Deng Shilong, Gu Yin, Li Yanshou, and Li Renshi successively compiled the history of the country, which was quite popular at the time.
Deng Shilong was a native of Xiangzhou. At the end of the great cause, Wang Shichong's brother and son Tai stayed in Heyang and invited Shilong as a guest to meet him personally. When Emperor Taizong attacked Luoyang, he sent a letter to Tai, but Shilong wrote a reply and his words were not rude. After the Luoyang Ping Dynasty, Shilong was afraid of crime, so he changed his name, called himself Mr. Yinxuan, and fled to Bailu Mountain. At the beginning of Zhenguan, he was conferred the title of Master of the Imperial College. Cui Renshi, Murong Shanxing, Liu Wei, Yu Anli, Jingbo, etc. were all bachelors of history. Shilong was burdened with past sins and was still uneasy. When Emperor Taizong heard about it, he sent Fang Xuanling to tell him: "You have written a letter for Wang Tai, which is a serious crime, but everyone is his own master. How can I do anything wrong? I am the emperor now, how can I hold anyone responsible for his fault?" You should be calm and don't be afraid of danger. "He was promoted to Zuo Lang and Wei Wei Cheng. At the beginning, Taizong used martial arts to control the sea, weathering the wind and rain, and had no time to write poems and books. In order to inherit the industry, introduce loyal and good people, and sharpen their ideological and political affairs. A few years later, Tao Zhi Longping, so he paid attention to literature and history in his spare time. The narrative is full of emotions, sometimes structured, the genius is magnificent, and the inspiration is far-reaching. In the thirteenth year of Zhenguan's reign, Shilong asked Emperor Taizong to catalog the Imperial Collection, but Taizong refused. Shilong also collected old stories from the Sui Dynasty and wrote thirty volumes of "Dongdu Ji". Moved to be a scholar. Looking for pawns.

While making the dew, Emperor Gaozong tasted the "Zhengdian" written by him and admired its beauty for a long time. He ordered it to be hidden in the secret pavilion and gave fifty pieces of silk to his family.
