Introduction: The grass under Yiyang City is thick, and the stream flows east to west. The fragrant trees are not flowers, and the birds are empty all the way to the spring mountain. This is the City of Yiyang after the Anshi Rebellion, and the seemingly pleasant spring scenery is cold and desolate because of the emptiness and no one, and even a little sinister. And all this was caused by a dead fat man named An Lushan.
On the ninth day of the first month of November in the fourteenth year of Tianbao, he and a guy named Shi Siming rebelled and invaded Luoyang in just one month. This battle not only messed up Xuanzong's great rivers and mountains, but also forced him to die as his beloved. When Xuanzong thought of all this, he couldn't help but weep, regretting that he didn't listen to Jiu Ling's words.

Zhang Jiuling was a descendant of Zhang Liang, the Marquis of Hanliu, and both his grandfather and great-grandfather served as officials in the court. But in his father's generation, he was in the middle of the family and could only make a living by fishing. It is said that one day, Zhang Father packed up his fishing gear early in the morning and came to the river in the north of the southern suburbs of Shaozhou. However, he did not catch a single fish from morning to night, and his heart could not help but be anxious and angry.
At this time, it was already dark, and he was not willing to go back like this, and decided to try the next net. Unexpectedly, as soon as the net was thrown down, he felt heavy, and now he was happy and broken, and he pulled hard to the shore. But no matter how he pulled it, he couldn't pull it. In the end, he was so tired that he was tired of Venus, and his body was weak, and he was about to be dragged into the water by the fish.
In desperation, he had to tie the net to a tree on the shore and go home to find his wife for help. But unexpectedly, the wife came and dragged the fish up with a gentle tug. The two of them looked through the moonlight, and only then did they find that the net turned out to be a red nine-carp, weighing about twenty pounds. I saw the fish's two big eyes staring at Zhang's wife, as if there were countless grievances.
Zhang Pingsu eats and prays to the Buddha at home, and always has a compassionate heart. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but feel unbearable in his heart, so he turned around and consulted with her husband. And the husband is also a young person who reads poetry and has a kind heart. Therefore, the two people hit it off immediately, and immediately one person looked up and one person lifted his tail to put the big fish back into the water. Strange to say, the fish did not flee immediately after returning to the water, but circled around the shore again and again, and then reluctantly left.
born
Soon after, Zhang became pregnant, but had not yet given birth in October. Looking at his tortured wife with a yellow face, Zhang Father was worried about scratching his heart. After a few more days like this, he finally couldn't sit still, so he found a langzhong to give his wife a pulse. After Lang Zhong finished his pulse, he smiled and said to him: Sir can relax your heart, and Madame is fine. Only because of the extraordinary things you carry, you can only produce them in the big city.
Therefore, under the guidance of Lang Zhong, the husband and wife quickly packed up the soft and soft, and the family moved to Qujiang, Shaozhou, which is today's Shaoguan. Sure enough, as Lang expected, within a few days of their arrival in Shaoguan, a white and fat little prince fell to the ground. And the time of birth is exactly the time of release of big fish.
Zhang Shi looked at the baby in his arms, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt familiar. I couldn't help but think in my heart: Is it because I accumulate virtue and do good deeds in my daily life, and the reincarnation of the big fish to repay the favor? Or, whether it is or not, I'll call him Nine-Carp.
When Jiu Mu was five or six years old, his mother took him to the Great Fan Temple to listen to the teachings of Liu Zu Huineng. Who knew that Liu Zu could see the extraordinary features of this child at a glance. Therefore, he said to Zhang: Jiuqi is an aquatic tribe, after all, it is a thing in the pool, and it cannot go to the shore. It is better to change it to nine years old, nine through long, meaning that the sky is long. After Zhang Shi listened, he was full of joy and honored the noble words of the Six Ancestors.

One spring, the 7-year-old Jiu ling accompanied his mother to the temple to incense. Seeing the peach blossoms in the courtyard, I was overjoyed, so I picked one and hid it in my sleeve. Then, alone, he slipped into the main hall. Just at this moment, the local Taishou also came to the temple to incense, and the entourage had just laid out the tribute, and Jiuling came in, looking at the table full of tributes and spitting but did not dare to put his mouth down.
Taishou, who was standing by, felt very amused and said to him: Do you want to eat tribute? I'll make a pair, and if you can match it, you'll eat it. After saying that, he looked at jiuling's sleeve and said: There is a spring color hidden in the sleeve of the white-faced scholar. Unexpectedly, Jiu Ling said without hesitation: Huang Tang is too guarded to see what is going on in his chest.
After hearing this, Taishou laughed and continued: A boy, climbing the dragon and climbing the phoenix, climbing dangui. Jiu Ling listened and looked at the three big Buddhas opposite, and said in a loud voice: Three big Buddhas, sitting on the lion and sitting on the elephant and sitting on the lotus. All the hearers were impressed, saying that this son would become a great instrument in the future. Later, Zhang Jiuling was indeed a high school student, and was appreciated and promoted by the prime minister Zhang Yue. After 30 years of ups and downs in the eunuch sea, at the age of 55, he sat in the position of prime minister and began to shine in the political arena.
Qujiang demeanor
Zhang Jiuling, the first Lingnanian in Chinese history to serve as prime minister, was not only talented but also personable. Therefore, it has won the reputation of "Tang Room Peerless Soldier, the First Person in southern Heaven". At that time, the ministers would take a slab on which they could write what they wanted to say in advance, so as not to forget the words when they played correctly. After use, just like another cigarette bag, insert it into the waist, which is neither elegant nor convenient when getting on the horse.
Therefore, Zhang Jiuling ordered someone to make a special exquisite bag, and when it was not in use, it was handed over to the servant to hold in his hand, which was both elegant and convenient. Later, civil and military officials followed suit, and the use of purses became popular for a while. Even Tang Xuanzong couldn't help but marvel: Every time he saw Zhang Jiuling, he felt refreshed and refreshed.
Discernment of traitors
Zhang Jiuling has been in the eunuch sea for many years, not only has his political achievements remarkable, but he has also cultivated a pair of eyes to distinguish between loyalty and adultery. When he first saw An Lushan, he said to Pei Guangting, the attendant: I see that this son has a proud face, and it will be this Hu person who will cause trouble in Youzhou in the future. In the 24th year of the new century, An Lushan served as the general of Pinglu, but due to the defeat of the Khitan and suffered heavy losses, he was beheaded according to the law.
His immediate superior, Zhang Shoujue, had no choice but to send him to the capital and ask the imperial court to be beheaded. In fact, he knew that Tang Xuanzong was very fond of An Lushan and would not kill him, and he did this on purpose. Later, as he expected, Emperor Xuanzong only agreed to dismiss him, but did not agree to kill him. However, Zhang Jiuling insisted on his own opinion and advised Xuanzong: An Lushan Wolf's ambition, or kill him, in order to avoid future troubles.
Tang Xuanzong not only disagreed, but also accused Zhang Jiuling of going his own way, and eventually let the tiger return to the mountain. Later, when An Lushan rebelled, when Tang Xuanzong took refuge in Shudi, he remembered Zhang Jiuling's advice and could not help but shed tears.
epilogue
During Zhang Jiuling's tenure as prime minister, although the Tang Dynasty flourished, a crisis was also brewing. Over time, Tang Xuanzong no longer worked hard and diligently in government affairs as in his early years, but liked to linger on the harem and became increasingly dim-witted. During this period, he reused a number of sinister people who were willing to serve and drink swords, such as Li Linfu and An Lushan.
However, Zhang Jiuling was an upright and frank person who dared to violate Yan Zhizhi's advice. Therefore, at the instigation of a sinister villain, Tang Xuanzong felt that he was becoming more and more distracting. In the end, under the framework of Li Linfu, he was put on the hat of forming a party and was demoted to the history of the governor of Jingzhou. In this way, Tang Xuanzong, who was close to the villain and far away from the sage, stepped forward step by step towards the disaster of the Anshi Rebellion.
