Zhang Chengye's deeds will be specially told in the chapter of Li Keyong and Li Cunmiao's father and son.

King Jin is very anxious, Qu Gao and widow, he is crazy, and no one responds! It happened that Su Xun arrived, and he went to the Weizhou Mansion to meet Li Cunxuan, and shouted "Long live" when he met. Li Cunmiao was worried that he didn't respond, and he was very happy when the savior arrived. The next day, Su Xun offered 30 more "Shuri pens", which made Li Cunmiao's horses go crazy. There is also a person named Yao Kai, who also died after his death, and his family had no money to bury him, so the government paid for the burial. This Qing official old man, when he was young, looked like an idiot, unkempt, and snotty. But Sikong Tu values it very much, and likes it very much. How much do you like it? Just marry his daughter to him. Later, I really got into the Jinshi, but unfortunately I also worked in the Zhu Wen puppet government. I did secretarial work such as a bachelor of Hanlin and a scholar in the middle school. The pseudo-Liang was extinguished, he was demoted, and when Mingzong's son Li Conghou sat in the world, he chose the prime minister, so he was chosen. He is a compassionate person, he only knows how to be generous and benevolent to people, but he doesn't know anything about the number of money and money. It seems that it makes sense that he was seen as an idiot when he was a child. Add "the royal family can't", and there is no action in the phase. During the period of Shi Jingjiao, the "child emperor" of the Khitan, he dismissed the household department. He died at the age of seventy-five, and when he died, he had no money to bury, so the government assistant let him be buried in peace. Sikong Tu 33 Jinshidi, who was a scholar in the middle school, was a famous poet in the late Tang Dynasty. He died in 908 at the age of seventy-one. His family was a large landowner, and in 887, at the age of forty, he went into seclusion.

Some became court officials, and their parents died and had no money to bury them. For example, Li Ting, who supervised the imperial history, and his father died. "Begging for food and then burial". After burying his father, he couldn't go to be an official right away. Still haven't eaten. "Hungry homes, those who hear pity them". Li Ying is a Qing official. He is also a good official. The place in Caozhou, Shandong Province is very difficult to govern, and the first ten assassins cannot be governed. After his arrival, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. Later, during the great famine in Shandong, he captured more than 100 robbers, including one of his nephews named Li Jiao. He enforced the law impartially and killed his nephew. Once, Zhu Wen asked him what Neihuang meant by this place. He explained that Henan has outer yellow and lower yellow, so this place is called inner yellow, and inner yellow is in Anyang City. Zhu Wen was curious. He asked him about his outer yellow. He said that Waihuang is in Yongqiu, and it is also in the area of Anyang. Xia Huang was abolished when he was in the Northern Qi Dynasty, and today he is in Chenliu. Zhu Wen didn't like reading people in his life, and this time he changed a little. Chen stayed in Kaifeng City, there was Chen Liuzhen, which belonged to Zheng State in the Spring and Autumn Period, because it was invaded by Chen State, called Chen Liu. King Hui of the Warring States period moved the capital to Daliang. This is the place. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Dong Zhuo was in turmoil, and Cao Cao raised troops here. Liu Bang of the Western Han Dynasty was defeated here.

It's a pity that when Zhu Youqi, who killed his father and the king, was killed by the rebels. He was also killed by the rebels.

His younger brother also has a literary talent, named Li Qi. wrote a recital for Zhu Wen, "If you write it, you will have to be too ancestor." The last emperor worshipped the prime minister. Zhao Yan was not polite to him. When Zhuang Zong, he was an old man. Help Zhuang Zong write something. Three years with the light, the world is full of water. Disasters are rampant, and the capital is short of food. He wrote and said it didn't matter. Zhuang Zong was very happy and was ready to make him a national planning envoy, equivalent to the director of the National Development and Reform Commission. Because he once wrote a war report for Mingzong, "defeated the fierce party of the Khitan, and broke the true rebellion against the city". Misspelled a word, and wrote "calm" as "really determined". Mingzong didn't take his sin very seriously, and only deducted one month's salary. When writing the Shinto monument, he did not point out that Huo Yanwei had been an official in the puppet Liang government, and was criticized by Feng Dao.

Strategist Li Zhen

Li Zhenzu lived in the Western Regions, specifically Samarkand in Central Asia, an country with the surname of Zhaowu Jiu, and he was the great-grandson of Li Baozhen, a hero of Zhongxing in the Tang Dynasty. Li Baozhen was given the surname Li because he was ashamed to have the same surname as An Lushan.

The etymology of the word Zhaowu is still inconclusive. The Book of the New Tang Dynasty takes Kang, An, Cao, Shi, Mi, He, Huoxun, Wudi, and Shi as the nine surnames of Zhaowu, and Dong'anguo, Biguo, Han, and Nasebo are attached to it, and Cao is divided into three kingdoms: East, West, and Central. In addition, according to the "Northern History" and "Book of Sui", Wu Nahao, Mu and Cao are also countries with the surname Zhaowu.

Li Zhen was smart and studious when he was young, and took the imperial examination like everyone else, but he fell to Sun Shan in the first exam. Li Zhen was not convinced, and took the exam several times in a row, but he was not on the list, but he still fell to Sun Shan. This made him deeply disgusted with the imperial examinations, especially some of the corrupt phenomena in them, and he was even more resentful of the bureaucrats, so that the scandalous incident of ruining and humiliating the prime minister later occurred.

Later, he joined the army and became a general of Jingo. General Kingo was in charge of the day and night patrols in the palace and the capital. Later, he was reappointed as Taizhou Thorn History, now Linhai, Zhejiang. When he was about to arrive in Taizhou, he encountered an incident in eastern Zhejiang where Dong Chang rebelled and became emperor. That is to say, the officials in Taizhou were not appointed by the imperial court, and he could not take office, so he had to return to Chang'an. People are unlucky, and they also plug their teeth when they drink cold water. Li Zhen was sad all the way and sighed all the way back to the north.

On the way back, he passed through Bianzhou, and went to see Zhu Wen, and won Zhu Wen's respect with his resourcefulness and extraordinary intelligence. Juwen felt that he was resourceful and a genius, and graciously invited him to stay and help him. Li Zhen made a mistake in this way and became Zhu Wen's staff.

When Zhu Wen concurrently served as the envoy of Yunzhou Jiedu, Li Zhen became the deputy envoy of Jiedu, which shows that Zhu Wen still trusts him quite a lot. Since then, Li Zhen has been active as Zhu Wen's envoy and has done many important things for Zhu Wen. For example, Ma Yin, who occupied Hunan, attacked Lei Man in Langzhou, and Li Zhen was ordered to mediate. He gave full play to his ancestral eloquence and shook his lips, so that they listened to Zhu Wen's proposal to reconcile, and the army was dismissed and made peace. Langzhou is in present-day Changde City, Hunan. Ma Yin was originally from Yanling, Xuzhou (now Yanling, Henan), and was the first monarch of Chu during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. In Hunan, the independence and local stability of the Chu realm were maintained, and the economy was developed, so that the Chu state was strong and prosperous for a time among the five dynasties and ten kingdoms.

By the way, Lei Man, he is a native of Wuling, he is very fierce and cunning, and his tattoo is broken. On hot days, people with thick waists and thick shoulders and patterns such as green dragons and black panthers are often seen on the streets and alleys, and they are probably the descendants of Lei Man. During the time of Tang Xizong, there was a famine in Hunan. Thieves abounded, and he gathered thousands of barbarians with Tongli to hunt in Daze. He had a special method of selecting generals and made everyone drink. Anyone who drinks a lot and is bold will be added as Wu Chang. His unit was called the "Tutuan Army", and everyone pushed him as the commander. Later, Gao Biao guarded Jingnan, and he followed to suppress Huangchao. Later, Gao Biao went to Huainan. He followed. However, he escaped back and killed the Langzhou assassin. Occupy Langzhou, and then ask the imperial court for recognition. Zhaozong worshipped him as a festival envoy. He was a bandit who took advantage of the war to rob Jingnan. Jingnan is thousands of miles away, ghosts cry wolves, and the people have no seeds. History says that he is very good at water, and once on a boat, he threw something on the table into the water and jumped into the water. The water in the lake was very deep, and he went into the water to scoop it up. Put it on the table. After his death, his son succeeded him, and his son was killed by Ma Yin.

Li Zhen relied on his talent to do an extremely good job under Zhu Wen. Soon, he handed over the important task of envoying Chang'an to Li Zhen.

Zhu Wen focused his development on the Central Plains, and in order to get closer to some ministers in Chang'an City who had a good relationship with him, he sent Li Zhen to go. He ran between Bianzhou and Chang'an, grasped the movements of the court in time, prepared for Zhu Wen to grasp the power of the Tang Dynasty, and cleared the way for Zhu Wen to become emperor in the future.

At this time, the Tang Dynasty was still controlled by eunuchs, namely Liu Jishu, a lieutenant of the Shence Army. Liu Jishu was preparing to abolish Tang Zhaozong. Replace it with a small emperor to facilitate control and facilitate one's own dictatorship. However, he was afraid that some big local forces would send troops against him, and he needed to find supporters. So he thought of Zhu Wen, who was the most powerful at that time. It happened that Zhu Wen also sent Li Zhen to Chang'an, and Liu Jishu sent his fellow party Cheng Yan and his nephew Liu Xizhen to test it, wanting to unite with Zhu Wen to abolish Tang Zhaozong.

Cheng Yan went to see Li Zhen first. Lieutenant Liu told him that Lieutenant Liu had his nephew come and discuss the plan. If you want to meet General Zhu, please tell me. Facilitate this. When they saw Li Zhen together, Cheng Yan preemptively said that the emperor was stern and impatient, and the eunuchs were afraid that he and the ministers would unite and that their disaster would come. Therefore, everyone wants to depose the emperor together with Lieutenant Liu, and Cheng Yan and others want to work together to cooperate with you and jointly stabilize the overall situation of the world. Now I will tell you the truth, please inform General Zhu, and please plan a rebellion with them.

Li Zhen listened to it and did not agree to them, he had long hated these eunuchs who disturbed the government and corrupted the discipline. It is precisely because of their dictatorship that politics has become more corrupt, and that people like him who have the ambition to serve the country cannot pass the imperial examination and serve the country.

Li Zhen said harshly to them, serving the three-year-old lord with a hundred-year-old slave, you are going to do such an unjust thing that will plague the country. It was ominous to depose the monarch, and he did not dare to participate in it. Besides, King Liang used a million-strong teacher Kuang to assist the Son of Heaven, and he was still afraid to honor the saint, how could he dare to do such a rebellious thing? You'd better think about it.

Liu Xizhen listened to Li Zhen's reprimand, was speechless, and left in frustration. The reason why Li Zhen dared to reprimand so boldly was because he knew that Liu Jishu was afraid of the heavy troops in Zhu Wen's hands and did not dare to do anything to him. Since Liu Jishu came to him to discuss, it showed that they were afraid that Zhu Wen would use this matter to crusade against him in the future, so they came to test Zhu Wen's intentions first. Li Zhen saw through their thoughts, so he dared to reprimand them for deposing the emperor without scruples.

Soon, Li Zhen left Chang'an and returned to Bianzhou to report to Zhu Wen and resume his life.

Li Zhen had just arrived in Shaanzhou at this time, and after hearing the news of Zhaozong's depose, he rushed back to Bianzhou to meet Zhu Wen. Shaanzhou is today's Sanmenxia City, Henan. Zhu Wen had just returned from other places and was a little hesitant in the face of this situation. At this time, Liu Jishu sent his adopted son Liu Xidu to Bianzhou to continue lobbying Zhu Wen and them to unite. Liu Jishu asked Liu Xidu to tell Zhu Wen that he was willing to transfer all the Jiangshan Sheji of the Tang Dynasty to Zhu Wen, and at the same time, he also sent his cronies Li Fengben and others to show Zhu Wen the forged edict of the Emperor Taishang, so as to show that it was the will of the Emperor Taishang and not their private plan.

After Zhu Wen saw it, he hesitated even more, he originally had the idea of abolishing Tang and replacing him, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly. If you reach out at this time, you may really get your wish. But the cunning Zhu Wen was afraid that other warlords would take the opportunity to crusade against him, and the outcome would be unpredictable. But if this opportunity is easily missed, I don't know how long it will take to wait for a good opportunity in the future. Zhu Wen, who was in a dilemma, really didn't know what to do.

Li Zhen saw Zhu Wen's hesitation, and understood his thoughts. persuaded him that since ancient times, the turmoil in the inner court has been a rare opportunity to help the hegemony. Now these eunuchs are forbidden and insulting the Son of Heaven, and if the king does not go to the levy, it will be difficult to convince the people and order the princes. At this time, Liu Jishu's elder brother, Liu Chongchu, the military supervisor, and Zhang Jun, the former prime minister, also rushed to persuade Zhu Wen. They said that it was easy to succeed in raising things with the eunuchs, and that they could also fulfill their wishes. Only Li Zhen resolutely opposed, he said, if you do the right way, you can make great achievements!

Zhu Wen came to his senses when he heard this, and said sharply, Zhang Gong persuaded him to work with them, it turned out that he wanted to rely on him to get Zai! So he and Li Zhen planned to imprison the envoy Li Fengben and others, and then Li Zhen immediately rushed to the capital, plotted with Prime Minister Cui Yin, and united with Sun Dezhao and other generals to kill Liu Jishu and others, and supported the restoration of Tang Zhaozong. Regarding the story of Liu Jishu's murder, the relevant chapters of Xuanzong's father and son have been introduced in detail.

When the news of Zhaozong's restoration reached Bianzhou, Zhu Wen was very happy and summoned Li Zhen back from Chang'an. returned to Bianzhou and was fully affirmed by Zhu Wen. Zhu Wen said that Aiqing's intention was exactly what he intended, and even God knew his heart.

Li Zhen did quite decisively this time, fully demonstrating his excellent political strategy, and even Zhu Wen, who had always thought he was resourceful, was impressed by him. Since then, Zhu Wen has paid more attention to Li Zhen, and Li Zhen, like Jing Xiang, has become Zhu Wen's right and left hand, and has played an irreplaceable role in his hegemony career.

After talking about Li Zhen, I have to talk about a person named Zheng Ao. He is one of the two hermits specially named by Ouyang Xiu in "The History of the New Five Dynasties", and the other is named Zhang Jianming. Zheng Ao is a native of Baima, Huazhou, Henan, and the "White Horse Post Incident" in which Zhu Wen killed many scholars occurred in his hometown. He was studious since he was a child, and his articles were very well written. During the Zhaozong period, Jin Shi was not the first, and when he saw that the world was in chaos, he wanted to "go away", discussed with his wife and children, and lived in seclusion with him. The wife said, "Do you think it's good to live in seclusion?" So he left home and went to the mountains to become a Taoist priest. His wife wrote many times asking him to come home, but he didn't look at it, and threw it into the pit and burned it. Later, when he heard that his wife and children had died, he was very sad and cried for several days. He and Li Zhen are old friends, both of them have the same experience, they are both fallen students, they have been sad after falling off the list, cried bitterly, hit the wall, committed suicide, and sympathized with each other. Li Zhen followed Zhu Wen as an official and made a fortune, thinking of this unfortunate old classmate, he asked him to go out of the mountain to be an official. He said that his family was so opposed back then, he went into hiding, and now he doesn't want to go out of the mountain. Later, Li Zhen offended and demoted the official, and after he found out, he walked thousands of miles to see him. Although the person who visited him was a person who was looked down upon and even despised by the people, his righteous deeds were praised by everyone, and his fame grew. Later, he moved to Huayin, wanted to find the thousand-year-old pine resin, and met two Taoist priests. He farmed by himself, two Taoist priests, one sold medicine for a living, and the other learned to fish with hooks and bait. Presumably, fishing is just for fun, and it is said that it can turn stone into gold. (To be continued......)
