Foreword: Yongfeng County, Ji'an City, Jiangxi Province is the hometown of Ouyang Xiu, the author as a late student of Ou Gong's hometown, I hope to use the "New Book of Tang" written by Ou Gongxiu to introduce my hometown to everyone, this article is all pictured in Yongfeng County, Ji'an City, Jiangxi Province, Ouyang Xiu's hometown.

When it comes to Cheng biting jin, everyone will definitely think of his three-plate axe. The New Book of Tang compiled by Ouyang Xiu also recorded the glorious deeds of Cheng Yaojin. Cheng Zhijie, also known as Cheng Biting Jin, is a hero of the horse mallet in the late Sui and early Tang dynasties.

The deeds of Cheng Yaojin's three sons were recorded in the New Book of Tang compiled by Ouyang Xiu. Cheng Zhimo, the eldest son of Cheng Zhijin, inherited his father's title of lord of the order. The second son, Cheng Chuliang, became a donkey and married Li Shimin's daughter Princess Qinghe. The third son, Cheng Cheng, was the commander of the Imperial Household Bureau, and achieved the position of twelve generals at the highest level.

The deeds of Cheng Yaojin, a grandson, Cheng Boxian, were recorded in the New Book of Tang compiled by Ouyang Xiu. When Cheng Boxian was young, he was also a young man with aspirations. When Wu Zetian reformed the Mandate of Heaven, Cheng Boxian strongly opposed it. Wu Zetian wanted to kill Cheng Boxian, but taking into account the influence of public opinion, he left Cheng Boxian's life. Wu Zetian demoted Cheng Boxian to Changsha and let Cheng Boxian sit on the cold bench.

During Wu Zetian's reign, Cheng Boxian was depressed. After the Shenlong coup, Emperor Zhongzong of Tang ascended the throne. Cheng Boxian thought that his spring had arrived, but he did not expect that he still could not be reused, and could only continue to sit on the cold bench. Tang Ruizong ascended the throne, although he remembered Cheng Boxian, but only gave him a position of a minor official.

Cheng Boxian watched a group of heroes and grandchildren of about the same age rise to fame, but he had been sitting on the cold bench. Cheng Boxian's mentality was unbalanced, and Cheng Boxian thought hard and finally figured it out: "You can't be too upright as a person, the more upright people are, the more there is no future." The more people who sneak and pat the horse, the more able they are to be able to manage the fortunes. ”

When Tang Xuanzong was in charge, Cheng Boxian, an aspiring young man who had disregarded life and death, disappeared, and he was blackened into a horse ass spirit who greeted him. In order to curry favor with Gao Lishi, Cheng Boxian actually married him as a brother. The descendants of the meritorious heroes of the Tangtang Lingyange actually married jinlan with the eunuch Yiyi. After this news spread, the children of the heroes thought that Cheng Boxian did not want to face it.

Gao Lishi's original surname was Feng, the name Yuanyi, originally a son of a meritorious man, and his father was Panzhou Assassin Feng Junheng. The Feng family was the Tu Emperor of Lingnan, and because of his self-respect, he was suppressed by the imperial court. Feng Yuan was defeated and captured, and was castrated as a eunuch. The grand eunuch Gao Yanfu adopted Feng Yuanyi and renamed him Gao Lishi.

Gao Lishi respected Gao Yanfu very much, and in accordance with his son's etiquette to his father, he was extremely filial to Gao Yanfu. After Gao Yanfu's death, Gao Lishi held a high-end and high-grade funeral for his adoptive father. In order to curry favor with Gao Lishi, Cheng Boxian actually went to Gao Yanfu's funeral with the gift of filial piety. Some guests came to mourn Gao Yanfu, and Cheng Boxian actually knelt down to thank him.

Good fellow, the grandson of the meritorious hero of the Tangtang Lingyange, actually gave the eunuch a filial piety. After this incident, Cheng Boxian became a joke of the Tang Dynasty. If Cheng Biting Jin had known about Izumi, he would definitely have been angry with this grandson. Although Cheng Boxian became a joke, he was pleased by Colliers. Cheng Bo was cultivated by Gao Lishi and paid homage to the Twelve Wei Generals.

In the Etiquette System of the Tang Dynasty, one pin and two pins were honorary positions, which were generally used to posthumously honor the deceased meritorious service. The tang dynasty's real power zai was Zheng Sanpin, and the twelve Wei generals were also Zheng Sanpin, which was equivalent to the rank of zai chancellor. The Twelve Wei Generals were the highest military officials of the Tang Dynasty, and Qin Shubao's southern conquest of the Northern War lasted a lifetime, and the highest official position was also the Twelve Wei Generals. It can be seen that the return of Colliers to Cheng Bo is very rich.

In comparison, Li Bai is very sad. The New Book of Tang compiled by Ouyang Xiu records that Li Bai looked down on the eunuch Gao Lishi and offended Gao Lishi as a result. Li Bai's ending is known to everyone, he was set by Gao Lishi, depressed all his life, and could only rely on alcohol to anesthetize himself.

Li Bai claimed to be a high-ranking and not bird-high soldier, and gained the reputation of "a powerful man who refused to destroy his eyebrows and bend his waist", but in exchange for the turbulent displacement of the second half of his life. Regardless of his face, Cheng Boxian befriended the eunuch and became a filial son to the eunuch, and as a result, he was ridiculed by the world. Although Cheng Boxian ruined his name, he exchanged the glory and wealth for the rest of his life.

Now the question comes: "Cheng Boxian did not want his face, in exchange for glory and wealth." Li Bai won a british name, but in exchange for the bleakness of the evening scene. Ranking officials, do you think Cheng Boxian and Li Taibai, which is the winner in life? ”
