"Ten Thoughts of Emperor Taizong".
The elders who hear and ask for wood will consolidate their roots;Those who want to flow far will drown their springs;Those who think about the safety of the country will accumulate their virtues. The source is not deep and the flow is far away, the roots are not solid and seek the length of the wood, the virtue is not thick and think of the peace of the country, although the minister is stupid, he knows that he can't, and the situation is in the Ming ZheWhen the king is the weight of the artifact, the big one in the domain, he does not think of danger in peace, abstains from luxury and frugality, and cuts down the roots to seek Mu Mao, and wants to flow long.
Where the head of a hundred yuan, inherit the destiny of the sky, the beginning is really complicated, and the end is widowed. Is it easy to take, but difficult to keep?Cover in sorrow, will be wholeheartedly waited;Vested ambition, then indulge in pride. Wholeheartedly, then Hu, the more one;If you are proud, then your flesh and bones are the way. Although Dong Zhi was severely punished and shocked with anger, he was finally spared without benevolence, and he was respectful but not convinced. The grievance is not big, but it is terrifying, and it is advisable to be cautious.
If you can see what you want, then you can think and know enough to quit yourself;There will be something to do, then thinking and knowing will stop to appease people;Thinking of high danger, then think of humility and self-shepherding;Afraid of overflowing, then think of the rivers and seas;Lepan tour, then think of three drives as a degree;If you are slack, you will be cautious at the beginning and respect the end;If you are worried, you will think humbly to accept it;If you are afraid of slander and evil, you will think of righteousness and dethrone evil;If you add grace, you will think of a false reward without a cause;If the punishment is reached, there is no indiscriminate punishment out of anger. All in all, ten thoughts, Hongzi nine virtues. If you can do it simply, and choose the good and follow it, the wise will do their best, the brave will do their best, the benevolent will spread their benefits, and the believers will be loyal. Cultural relics are used together, and the arch is ruled vertically. Why bother thinking hard and serving on behalf of the hundred divisions!
Writing Background:
Wei Zheng (580 A.D. - 643), the word Xuancheng, ancestral home Julu (now Hebei), later moved to Xiangzhou Neihuang (now Neihuang County, Henan), the last years of the Sui Dynasty to participate in the Wagang Army Rebellion
Later, it was returned to the Tang Dynasty, and after the accession of Tang Taizong, he successively served as the right secretary of Shangshu, the secretary and the supervisor, the servant of the door, the prince and the prince, and was named "Zheng Guogong".
He presided over the compilation and revision of the Book of Zhou, the Book of Sui, the Book of Chen, the Book of Qi and so on.
Wei Zheng was the founding hero of the Tang Dynasty, and Li Shimin admired Wei Zheng very much
And said the famous: "Three Doctrines", after Wei Zheng's death, Li Shimin said sadly: "I died in one shot!".”
There is also an interesting little story about Wei Zheng and Tang Taizong, and Wei Zheng also got a nickname: "Sheep Nose Gong".
According to the record of "Longcheng Lu": "Wei Zuoxiang is loyal and discriminate, praises all opportunities, and is honest and ministerful." One day when he retired from the court, Taizong smiled and said to the courtiers: 'This sheep-nosed duke, I don't know what to leave behind, but can move his feelings?'The courtier said: "Wei Zheng is fond of vinegar celery, and every time he eats it, he is happy to praise it, and he can see its true state." 'Ming Dan, summon food, there are three cups of vinegar celery. Seeing it, I was overjoyed, and the food was unfinished and the celery was exhausted. Taizong smiled and said: "Qing said that there is nothing good, and I see it now." ’”
Since then, because the "sheep's nose gong" was opened by Li Shimin's golden mouth, it has been widely spread.
