Shi Yukun, a disciple of the Qing Dynasty nobility, wrote a novel that was widely circulated in the anecdotes, called "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness", which mainly wrote the story of Bao Zheng and his friends punishing evil and promoting good, and judging the case by chance. Among them, there is a big villain named Pang Ji, which is the Pang Taishi we are familiar with, this Taishi is a foreign relative who is a miscreant, sells officials and lords, robs and robs, anyway, he is not doing a good job.
The real Pang Taishi in history cried out", "Wronged", Pang Taishi is a person in history, he is not only not a corrupt official, but also an out-and-out courtier.
Pang Yuan, the word alcohol, is today's Shandong Heze people,
Pang was born into a family of officials and eunuchs, but he himself worked very hard, and at the age of 30, he was awarded the title of Huangzhou Si li to join the army. In the Northern Song Dynasty, the status of civilian officials was itself very high, not to mention that they were the jinshi of the Eight Classics of Zheng'er, not by grace or by conquest, but also by the core elite in the group of civil officials. Pang Himself is capable of good strategy and has a very high emotional intelligence, so the people like him, and his superiors also appreciate him.
Seven years later, Pang Zhi was transferred to Kaifeng Province, served as a soldier Cao to join the military, and soon was recommended by his superiors to become Fa Cao, I understand that it should be the director of the General Post Office and the director of the General Bureau of Justice, Pang Zhi still maintained excellent work ability, and then he became the Dali Temple, and finally gradually promoted to the rank of Foreign Lang of the Punishment Department, the Governor of Miscellaneous Affairs, the Judgment of Dali Temple, and the appointment of Tianzhang Pavilion to be controlled.
Pang was a civilian official, but that didn't mean he wouldn't fight. In 1038, he was responsible for defending Shaanxi against the invasion of Western Xia, and the famous general Di Qing was a general of Pang Yuan.
The invasion of Western Xia made the border people unhappy, everywhere was broken rubble, the land was barren and starved, Pang Zhi immediately appeased the people to resume production after his arrival, and his 100,000 soldiers were strictly disciplined. Under his rule, the people lived in peace, and the grain cultivated was used to supplement military salaries and military supplies, and Yuan Hao, the lord of the Western Xia State, did not take advantage of Pang Yuan's hands, and later could only claim peace with his subjects.
In 1051, Pang Zhi worshiped Zhongshu Menxia Pingzhangshi, Shōbunkan University scholar, and superintendent of the history of the country, at this time he was the prime minister, and the prime minister was the only one, and the appointment power fell to the opposition.
Seeing this, everyone must think that Pang Zhi can write and fight, but Pang Zhi has an ability to overwhelm his ability to govern the country, defend the border and retreat from the enemy, that is, to know people, and many people we know are recommended by Pang Zhi, such as Sima Guang,
Di Qing was once suspected by the emperor, and it was Pang Zhi who helped mediate and entrusted him with important duties, and Fan Zhongyan was Pang Zhi's close friend, and the relationship between the two had always been very good.
In addition, Pang Zhi was a just and upright person, one of Song Renzong's favorite concubines had been pampered and arrogant, interfering in the affairs of the dynasty, Pang Zhi immediately wrote a letter of advice, and when the will of the favored concubine arrived at Pang Yuan's place, he was intimidated back, and told everyone not to listen to the orders of this concubine. ”
Of course, Pang Zhi is not a perfect person, and the strictness of his military rule is actually outrageous, and the "History of Song" records: "The law of The Book of Song is better than that of officials." Holding the law deeply, there are criminals in the army, or they are cut off, or they are tired to death, and they are feared by the old soldiers. "Disobeying the military order and directly killing, this kind of thunderous means is no wonder that no one in the army dares to break the law."
Pang Is a generation of famous people, is one of the more prominent among the many sages of the Northern Song Dynasty, he and Pang Taishi really have nothing in common except for the surname Pang.
