Basic introduction: Real name: Cengcun Font size: Zishan Date of birth: 1295 Date of death: 1345 Life, works, biography The father does not neglect the wood. Zu Yanzhen, the ancestor of the world, served with meritorious service in the war. Xisi studied Chinese studies at a young age and was well versed in many books. The key to cultivating his moral integrity was passed down from Xu Heng and his father and brother. After a long attack on the guard, the wind god was far away and his conduct was solemn and clean. From a glance, he knew that he was the noble son of Guijie. His ability to deal with troubles and raise his beard to discuss matters cannot be surpassed by a Legalist scholar. He was first awarded the title of Chengzhilang and Jixianwaizhi. He was moved to the Ministry of War as a doctor, and then transferred to secretary and supervisor. When I was ordered to go to the nuclear spring, I looked at the pearls and rhinoceros, and kept my eyes open. He was transferred to Taichang Liyuan Academy, appointed as the Supervisory Censor, and promoted to Deputy Envoy of the Integrity Visit to Hedong. Before he came to the throne, he was moved to secretary eunuch and promoted to attendant ceremonial envoy. He was promoted to a doctor in the Yousi Department of Zhongshu, moved to Jixianzhi, and moved to Jiangnan to travel to Taiwan to administer books and serve as a censor. He is the Minister of the Ministry of Liturgy and the Supervisor of Qunyu Neisi. The rate of righteousness is low. According to the national system, all the shops in Dalue were under the jurisdiction of the headquarters. When they met Gong Yan, all the skills were completed. The generals looked at Boru, and all the officials and subordinates looked at him in awe. He moved to meet the ministers of the same embassy, ??and the supervisory group and jade internal affairs department remained as before. He was also appointed as a Jingyan official, and he was removed from the Jiangnan branch to govern the book and serve as the censor. Before he left, he stayed as a bachelor of Kuizhangge Academy and also served as a banquet officer. He was promoted to Bachelor of Shishu, Tongzhi Jingyanshi, and was promoted to Grand Bachelor of Kuizhangge Academy, and Zhijingyanshi. In addition to Lian's visiting envoys in western Zhejiang, he remained as a bachelor and learned about the banquet. He sought homage to Hanlin scholars to carry out imperial edicts, know how to make imperial edicts, study national history, and know classics and banquets. He was promoted to be the Chongwen Supervisor of Xuanwen Pavilion. First of all, Emperor Wenzong worked hard to govern and often used the mottoes of sages to expound and recite the Emperor's side, which was of great benefit. After Emperor Shun came to the throne, he cut off the powerful and traitors, and thought of reform. Sisi served at the Sutra banquet, and urged the emperor to study every day. The emperor often taught him, and wanted to favor him and teach him rituals. All the governing principles contained in the "Four Books" and "Six Classics" were interpreted by the emperor, and they must be expressed in words that moved the emperor's heart and fulfilled his will. Liu Zongyuan's "Zi Ren Zhuan" and Zhang Shangying's "Seven Ministers" are especially fond of reciting. When I tasted the behavior of the seven ministers described by Chen Shangying in Jingyan Li, I was stunned and jealous, but I knew that they were virtuous and no longer resentful. In his spare time, the emperor wanted to look at ancient famous paintings, so he immediately took Guo Zhongshu's "Bigan Picture" to study. Because he said that the Shang King would not listen to the advice of his loyal ministers, his country perished. One day, the emperor looked at Huizong's paintings and praised them for their goodness. He then commented that Huizong was capable of many things, but could not do one thing. The emperor asked what one thing meant. He said: "You alone cannot be a king. The humiliation of the body and the ruin of the country are all caused by the inability to be a king. It is not worthy of a man to be a king." Or if there is a natural disaster or a civil disaster, you will be worried about it, and you will take advantage of it. Then he spoke to the emperor and said: "Heaven is benevolent and loves the ruler, so he changes his behavior as a warning. For example, if a father is kind to his son, if he loves his son, he will teach and discipline him. If the son can respect and show filial piety, the father's anger will be relieved. If the ruler practices sideways, then God's will will come back." The emperor noticed his sincerity and humiliated himself to listen. Sun Yan was given a special gift of nine robes and a jade belt to commemorate his words. Zhi Xichang said to people: "The prime ministers have to say something about the affairs of the world. If the prime minister cannot speak, he will speak to the emperor. If the prime minister dares not to speak, then he will speak to the banquet. When he prepares for the banquet, he will speak what others dare not say before the emperor. , willing is enough. "Therefore, those who are responsible for the gains and losses of current affairs will not remain silent. The ministers discussed the dismissal of the Kuizhangge Academy of Academic Affairs and the Arts and Literature Supervisor established by the previous dynasty. Xisi Jin said: "The people have a fortune of thousands of gold, but they still set up private schools and extend their stay to the guests. How can there be a great dynasty with great wealth all over the world, which can't be accommodated in one school?" The emperor was deeply impressed after hearing this. On that day, the Kuizhang Pavilion was renamed the Xuanwen Pavilion, and the Art and Literature Supervisor was renamed the Chongwen Pavilion. The existing structure remained as before, and Dong Zhi was ordered to do so. Also please appoint 16 reviewers and other officials to prepare for further lectures. The emperor is Yu Yun. At that time, the imperial examination was discontinued, and Zhi Si calmly said to the emperor: "In ancient times, talents were selected to benefit the world, and the imperial examination must be used. How can it be abolished." The emperor adopted his theory and sought to restore the old system. One day, I read Sima Guang's "Zi Zhi Tong Jian", because he said that the country should compile the three histories of Liao, Jin and Song at this time, and it might become incomplete after a long time. The later compilation and repair work was actually started by Xixi. He also invited people to go to the countryside to drink and study Chinese culture, so that the people would know their inferiority and brotherhood. He also invited Liu Fan of the Tang Dynasty and Shaoyong of the Song Dynasty to pay tribute to them to demonstrate their moral integrity. The emperor followed his request and issued an edict. Xisi held a high position with high expectations, and Ya loved Confucian scholars more than hunger and thirst. Therefore, the scholars and officials from all over the world followed him and gathered in his sect. When a high-ranking official has parental influence, he says: "What's good about Confucianism? You love it very much."
"Xi Xi said: "The ancestors used Confucianism to rule, and ordered Yu Zong to learn from Wang Xun who praised the good. Today's secretary has a collection of Yuzong's imitation calligraphy. At that time, the imperial pen personally signed the imperial name of the student and submitted it. He was so respectful and cautious. At dusk, Shizu summoned my ancestors to sit under the couch and explained the "Four Books" and ancient history to rectify the chaos. I couldn't sleep until Bing night. Shizu said happily: "The reason why I ordered you to learn from Xu Zhongping is because I want you to tell me your good words, and you are more respectful to me to support my ambition." ’ Now that you say you don’t love Confucianism, would you rather not recite the sincere wishes of the Holy Ancestor and Shenzong? Furthermore, if you follow the Confucian way, you will be benevolent to the emperor, loyal to your ministers, kind to your father, and filial to your son, and you will gain human relations and order the country; if you don't follow them, you will lose human relations and your family and country will be in chaos. If you want to cause chaos in your home, I cannot control it. Please be careful not to disrupt our country with such words. A Confucian may not be able to express himself in words, but he may have a lot of extraordinary people in his belly, so how can he be easily seen? "The high-ranking official was ashamed. Then he went out to pay homage to Pingzhang, the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. Next year, he was called back as a scholar of the Hanlin Academy. At that time, Zhongshu wrote to Pingzhang Que, and the ministers wanted to recommend him to express the emperor's wishes. The emperor said: "There is already someone in Pingzhang, and he is already halfway there. "The nearby ministers knew that the emperor's intention was to make no further recommendations. On the seventh day after arriving in Beijing, he contracted fever and died of illness. In fact, he was fifty-one years old in May of the fifth year of the Zheng Dynasty. His family was poor and there was little money to make. The emperor heard that In order to commemorate him, he was given five ingots of silver to pay for his official duties, and the officials in Taiwan paid him a fine of cloth to pay for it. Fighting for treasures, he is posthumously named Wenzhong. His work is Zhang Xu's calligraphy in cursive script.
