Liu Gongzhuo was born only three days after the word "New Tang Book". His uncle Liu Zihua said, "It is this son who makes me a big family." Therefore, when he was young, he was filial to his parents, friendly to his brothers, strict in character and solemn in quality, and acted according to etiquette.
obey the law
The article written by Liu Gongzhuo is gentle and good, not to say that sages don't study. At first, he was elected as a virtuous founder and outspoken advocate, and served as a school book lang. A year later, he was admitted to this subject for the second time and was appointed as the captain of Weinan County. There was a famine and a bad harvest. Although Liu Gongchuo's family had plenty of food and clothing, they didn't eat more than one bowl per meal until the harvest year. When someone asked him, he replied, "People in all directions are suffering and starving. Can I eat enough by myself? " After continuous promotion, he was appointed as the secretariat of Kaizhou. Kaizhou encounters barbarians, and the enemy often approaches Kaizhou to harass. An official under him said: "Our troops can't stop them, and we hope to appoint their leader as an important official for the time being." Gong Chuo said, "Are you in cahoots with them? How can you break the law? " Kill him at once and the enemy will retreat. Gong Chuo was promoted to assistant minister and official position. At that time, Wu, Ren Jiannan, our time, Gong Chuo and Pei Du were our time, and Wu especially valued them.
Offer advice and sarcasm.
Later, he entered the DPRK and served as a doctor in the official department. At that time, Tang Xianzong loved martial arts and went out hunting many times. Liu Gongzhuo satirized Xianzong with the proverb of treating too much medicine. Xianzong thought that Liu Gongzhuo was a brilliant man, so he sent an emissary to see him: "What you said,' I'm not idle, and my cracks are not big', is my deep love and should be used as a motto." A month later, Gong Chuo was appointed as an imperial envoy.
Leading Confucian scholars
Liu Gongchuo befriended Pei Ji, and Li Jifu, who had bad relations with Pei Ji, was appointed as an observer in Hunan when he presided over the state affairs again. Because Hunan is humid and secluded, he can't welcome his adoptive parents. Liu requested to set up an office in Luoyang, the eastern capital, but was not approved. Later, he was transferred to Eyue Observer. At that time, the court was conquering Wuyuanji, a rebellious town in Huaixi, and Xianzong ordered the recruitment of 5,000 Hubei and Vietnamese soldiers, belonging to Li Ting, the secretariat of Anzhou. Liu Gongzhuo said, "The imperial court said I was a Confucian scholar. I don't know how to March and fight?" He asked to lead troops to the front in person, and the court agreed. He led his troops across the Yangtze River to Anzhou, and Li listened to the military salute to greet him. Liu Gongzhuo said, "Didn't you shoot with a bow on your back because of the war? If you remove the uniform, it's just two county magistrates. How can we have a unified command? Because your family has been a general for generations and knows the art of war, I want to work in your office and serve with you in accordance with the laws and regulations of the army. " Li listened: "At your command." He gave him three letters of appointment, all of which were known by military horses, China army pioneers and battalion commanders, and selected 6,000 elite soldiers to give them to his commander-in-chief, warning the commanders of all walks of life: "Everything about the battalion commander will be decided." Because of his majestic appearance, Li listened to everyone's efforts. At that time, people admired him for using his power to lead his subordinates. When the troops set out, Liu Gongzhuo visited the homes of officers and men at lower levels many times and gave a large amount of pensions to those who were sick, gave birth to children and died. If his wife walks freely, she will sink her into the river. The officers and men were very grateful and obeyed him, saying, "Zhong Cheng does housework for us. Can he not work hard?" Therefore, the Hubei army will win every battle.
In the 11th year of Yuanhe (8 16), the court sent Li to replace Liu Gongchu, who returned to Chang 'an and was appointed as an envoy. After putting down the rebellion, Li Shidao was sent to Yunzhou to read the imperial edict. After returning to North Korea, he was appointed Jing Zhaoyin. On the way to the government office, a student of Ce Shen Military Academy did not avoid riding, and immediately killed him with a stick. Xianzong was angry because he killed people indiscriminately. Liu Gongzhuo said: "This is not only weighing the authority of the minister, but also flouting your majesty's laws and regulations." Xianzong said, "He has been executed. He won't report to me, will he?" Liu Gongzhuo said: "I shouldn't have reported this. I killed someone in the street. Jin Wu has the responsibility to report upwards. " It is the duty of the patrol messenger to report the people killed nearby. "Xian zong don't pursue. Liu Gongzhuo resigned because of his mourning for his mother's death. After the period of mourning, he served as assistant minister of punishments and concurrently served as a salt and iron transporter. Later, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War was also appointed as an ancient consultant.
Discuss current politics repeatedly
In the first year of Changqing (82 1), Liu Gongzhuo was appointed Jing Zhaoyin. At that time, the imperial court was at war with the rebels in Youzhou and Zhou Zhen, and the ambassadors of appointing and dismissing generals rode on post horses one by one on the road. Liu Gongzhuo said, "After investigation, there was a shortage of stamp products in the inn, and many post horses were sent. The court messenger dressed in red and purple rides 30 to 40 post horses, and the messenger dressed in yellow and green rides no less than 10 post horses. Post office officials can't check their documents. The imperial envoys casually asked the inn for supplies, and when the post horses were used up, they robbed the folk horses. The people resent them for disturbing the people, and pedestrians on the road are almost cut off. " Please ask the court to set the number of envoys to stop abuse. "Tang Muzong also ordered Zhongshu Province to make laws and regulations, thus lifting the punishment for the post officer. Eunuchs hate him. Liu Gongchuo was appointed as assistant minister of the official department and promoted to the position of suggestion doctor. Later, he was appointed as the minister of rites, and was appointed as Zuo Cheng because he avoided his grandfather. Soon, he was appointed to inspect the school department minister and our special envoy Shannan East Road.
In the first year (825), Liu became a left assistant middle school proofreader. After the strike of Niu Monk and Confucianism, they became our ambassadors in Wuchang. Liu Gongchuo visited him with the ceremonial etiquette of the army, and his staff dissuaded him. Gong Chuo replied: "Blame Zhang Gongcai's left image, and Fang Zhenjing respects the Prime Minister, that is, respects the court!" A Taoist priest offered Dan medicine. When Liu Gongchuo asked him where he got it, the Taoist replied, "It's in the Jade Gate." At that time, Zhu Kerong had just rebelled, and Liu Gongzhuo immediately said, "What a pity! The medicine is obtained from the traitor's territory. Even if it is effective, what's the use? " He poured out the elixir and expelled the Taoist priest. Later, he served as the minister of punishments in the DPRK, and was soon appointed as my ambassador to Yongning. Previously, the Shence troops stationed in various towns did not listen to the command of the local military and political chiefs, and the enemy could exploit the loopholes to harass the frontier fortress. Liu Gongzhuo sought benefits from the court and demanded that appropriate measures be taken. Therefore, the imperial court ordered the troops of Shence Army to accept the command of our ambassador in the border crisis. Liu Gongzhuo returned to the dynasty as the minister of punishments.
Pacify foreigners
In the fourth year of Daiwa (830), Liu Gongchuo was appointed as our ambassador to Hedong. During the famine, he scrimped and saved, stopped banquets and ate and dressed like a soldier. The northern tribes sent general Meru Chang Li to do business with 10,000 horses, and he was warmly received everywhere. Liu ordered the army to prevent soldiers from attacking and seizing horses. When Chang Li arrived in Taiyuan, Liu Gongzhuo just sent a tooth rider to comfort him one by one and received him in a very friendly manner. He set up a yamen and ordered an interpreter to lead him to see Liu Gongchu. This banquet is just a routine. Chang Li thanked him for his kindness and shed tears. Horses move slowly on the road without hunting casually. There is a Shatuo tribe in northern Fujian, which is brave and good at fighting. Tribes in nine planets and Liuzhou are afraid of it. Liu Gongzhuo summoned Chief Shatuo to control evil, repaired eleven abandoned fences, and recruited 3,000 soldiers to stay behind the fences. His wife and mother went to Taiyuan, and Gong Chu asked her to offer condolences, entertain them and give gifts. The Shatuo tribe thanked him for his kindness, so they spared no effort to protect the frontier barrier.
Liu Gongchu was appointed as our special envoy in Shandong Province and visited Deng County. Two officials in the county were arrested at the same time, one taking bribes and the other playing with laws and regulations. The county magistrate heard that Liu always emphasized law and discipline and thought that he would definitely kill those corrupt officials. As a result, Liu Gongzhuo's judgment is: "Although corrupt officials break the law, the law still exists; If a bad official breaks the law, the law will die. " It turned out to be those who played with the law. The horse in his stable bit and kicked the servant who kept the horse, so Gong Chuo killed the horse. Some people say that this is a good horse, and Gong Chuo said, "How can a good horse harm people?"
General Han Hong returned to Beijing from He Zhong County when he was seriously ill. Mu Zong ordered officials to visit him, but he sent his son to refuse, saying that he was too ill to receive him. Gong Chuo said to him, "Your Majesty sent a hundred officials to meet you. This is a special courtesy. You should support your sick body to see your official. How can you send messages casually when you are sick in bed? " Han Hong was afraid, so he was rescued and thanked the officials.
A mother-in-law detained in Jingzhaofu prison killed her daughter-in-law with a whip, and Jingzhaofu wanted to sentence her to death. Gong Chuo said, "It's not a fight for an elder to beat a younger generation. Besides, her son is here, and it is not proper in etiquette to kill his mother because of his wife. " Therefore, the sentence is lenient.
When Liu Gongchuo was seriously ill, he suddenly ordered his relatives to call his old subordinate Wei Chang in. Everyone thought that Liu Gongzhuo would entrust his family affairs to him. When Wei Chang arrived, Liu Gongzhuo said to him, "Tell the Prime Minister for me that Xuzhou will kill Li Ting's cronies, and there will never be peace unless Jun Gao is appointed to guard Xuzhou." Then he closed his eyes and stopped talking, and died two days later.
As soon as Liu Gongzhuo's poem came out of the Second West Bridge, the hills on both sides rustled late. Well flowers wash people's ears and listen to the tide of the stream at night. -Liu Gongzhuo's "Tizizhou Niutou Temple" Tang Tizizhou Niutou Temple.
As soon as I got out of the Second Bridge in Xicheng, the trees on both sides rustled late.
Well flowers wash people's ears and listen to the tide of the stream at night. This night, year and month is suitable for this place. The river is shallow at close range, but the snow-capped mountains are heavy at a distance. Thousands of wells are full of golden flowers, and thousands of forests are full of dew. Not only upstairs, but also the flying cover. -Liu Gongzhuo's "Playing the Moon in Wuxiang Jinlou" and Wuxiang Jinlou's "Playing the Moon"
This night, year and month is suitable for this place. The river is shallow at close range, but the snow-capped mountains are heavy at a distance.
Thousands of wells are full of golden flowers, and thousands of forests are full of dew. Not only upstairs, but also the flying cover. Taoyuan is a thousand miles away, and the flower hole is spring at four seasons. There are real guests in it, and they are gods. Pine trees are tall and leafy, and cranes have old feathers and new ones. If you don't make the same fence, glory will turn to dust. -In the Tang Dynasty, Liu Gongzhuo presented Mao Xianweng with "Gift to Mao Xianweng".
Taoyuan is a thousand miles away, and the flower hole is spring at four seasons. There are real guests in it, and they are gods.
Pine trees are tall and leafy, and cranes have old feathers and new ones. If you don't make the same fence, glory will turn to dust. See more poems by Liu Gongzhuo >>
