"Tailiu Xian Zhou, The West Garden leads to the talent." Before the arrival of the car, the chicken chirped off and opened early. ---------------------------------
In the next five thousand years of Chinese history, in the star-like number of dynasties, officials have emerged in an endless stream. Among these officials, there are those who work hard to govern the country, those who abuse their power for personal gain, those who only care about protecting themselves, and those who are upright and upright and who are bent on serving the country and the people.
Among the countless officials of the Tang Dynasty, a generation of famous Xiangfang Xuanling is the most admirable. Born in a chaotic world, defecting to the Ming Lord, repeatedly making strange plans, KuangFu Sheji, the rule of Zhenguan in the middle of the Tang Dynasty was started by Li Shimin, but the prosperous world also had a credit to Fang Xuanling. Just as the so-called "strive to rule the zhenguan years, Ling Ge's heroic name is Wangu Yang".
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="6" > first, born as a celebrity, the first to show ambition</h1>
In 581, the Northern Zhou magnate Yang resolutely raised an army and changed dynasties. When the capital city of Chang'an was in turmoil, Linzi, the ancient city of Qilu, was still in a good spring. The Fang clan of Qinghe has settled in Linzi City since the sixth ancestor Fang Zhan, because the Fang family has always been an official and dedicated to the people, so it is not only a veritable local family of Miao, but also a popular among the people.
The ruler of the Fang family at this time was Fang Yanqian, before 577, Fang Yanqian had been serving under Gao Xiaoheng, the king of Guangning, and after 577, the Northern Qi, which was in internal and external difficulties, collapsed, and Fang Yanqian did not want to be a vassal, so he was idle at home.
When the news of Yang Jian's leading his subordinates to force the Northern Zhou Jing Emperor to take the throne reached Linzi, Fang Yanqian was discussing his son's name with his uncle Fang Bao—"from the valley, moving to the trees", and in the confused situation of the world, he only hoped that his children could be able to leave the clouds and flowers, cut through the heavy mist, and support the world. This child who had high hopes was the future first sage of the Tang Dynasty, Fang Qiao, the character Xuan Ling.
When the new emperor ascended the throne, Fang Yanqian had to be summoned to Beijing to take up his post. In Chang'an City, from a child with a yellow mouth to a weak crown teenager, Fang Xuanling gradually grew up, in order to prove his strength, but also in order to complete his desire to enter the dynasty as an official and support the world, 18-year-old Fang Xuanling chose to participate in the new imperial examination set up by Yang Jian, the Emperor of Sui.
The exam lasted for five days, and the invigilator was None other than Fang Xuanling's uncle Gao Xiaozhi. In the five days, candidates have completed the test questions and walked out of the examination room, but Fang Xuanling, who was originally highly expected by the Gao family and the Fang family, has not seen any movement. It wasn't until the final gong and drum sounded that Fang Xuanling walked out unhurriedly.
Gao Xiaozhi had always been worried about the examination situation of this junior, so when Fang Xuanling came out of the examination room, he secretly asked people to inquire about the situation. Who knew that Fang Xuanling only smiled slightly at the person sent by his uncle, and did not say more. This moody and angry attitude made Gao Xiaozhi sigh to his friend: "I have observed more people, and no one can surpass Fang Xuanling." This is a talent for governing the country, but unfortunately, I can't see him out on top! ”
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="13" > second, fate is uncertain, and lives in seclusion in Shangxian to worry about state affairs</h1>
When the list was released, Fang Xuanling did indeed become a sergeant in one fell swoop and became an official of the Eastern Palace. "Therefore, the heavens will descend to the Si people", perhaps the heavens are also jealous of Fang Xuanling's talent, so until Fang Xuanling is 28 years old, his life is very bumpy. His mentor died, he was caught up in the battle for the throne, he was belittled many times... Yang Guang, the second son of the Sui Emperor, used various means to seize the throne, while Fang Xuanling was degraded again and again, and finally became a small gong Cao in Shangjun County, Hexi.
Shangjun is far away from Chang'an, and Fang Xuanling sees that he is getting farther and farther away from the political center, coupled with the sudden homesickness, his mood is inevitably low, fortunately, at this time, his new wife Lu Zhen'er is still with him. When Fang Xuanling shut himself in the study and sighed secretly, Lu Zhen'er would patiently explain him: "A good boy does not have to stick to temporary gains and losses, husband, you have your own majestic and majestic strategy in your chest, and there is no lack of talent, and when you meet the Lord, you will make a comeback!" ”
Fang Xuanling was grateful for his wife's explanation, so he relaxed his heart, and Lu Dai'er often traveled and played, saw the famous mountains and rivers of Shangxian County, and even befriended the lone monks of the local Heyang Temple. There are two flowers, one branch on each table, and the wind and waves in Shangjun are calm, while Chang'an is full of clouds.
During Yang Jian's reign, the politics were clear and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment; after Yang Guang took the throne, his arrogant and lavish style soon aroused the unanimous dissatisfaction of the whole country. Li Yuan, the son of Li Yuan, the Duke of Tang, was a close vassal of two generations of emperors of the Sui Dynasty, who was deeply trusted and had always been a loyal supporter of the imperial family, but since the Sui Emperor came to power, he was suspicious and murderous, and he repeatedly belittled Li Yuan, with great intention of attacking him. In order to protect himself, Li Yuan could only secretly collect soldiers, horses, grain and grass, and sacrifice to the Tang Uncle Yu Ancestral Hall in Yucheng, and the rebellion was already on the string.
On this day, Fang Xuanling once again came to the lonely monk with his wife, and it was to talk about this matter, and the two sat facing each other, recalling the exploits of Emperor Wen of Sui, and could not help but complain about his son Emperor Sui. Fang Xuanling talked about Xingtou and said bluntly to Gu Hang: "The new emperor has acted like this, and the fall of the world is only a matter of an instant!" Even if there were no revolts by people surnamed Li, there would be others who would oppose Emperor Sui..."
Before the words could be heard, a figure flashed out from behind the Buddha statue, and it turned out to be a young man.
The young man sat next to Fang Xuanling and the lonely monk and picked up Fang Xuanling's unfinished words: "There are many anti-Sui people, but there are not many who can succeed, and now that General Li Yuan has openly resisted the orders of the Sui Emperor, he will not surrender as easily as Yang Yu, and it will be a good place for you and me who want to show their fists and feet." ”
Fang Xuanling nodded in agreement, and after some inquiry, he knew that this young man was Du Ruyi. At this time, Fang Xuanling did not realize that this young man surnamed Du would become an important close friend in his later life, and they would become Li Shimin's "Fang Plot Du Judgment" in the future.

In 617, Fang Xuanling first sent his wife and children back to Daxing City, and he went to Weiyang alone to join the Li father and son. At the Weiyang Provisional Military Palace, Fang Xuanling and Li Shimin saw each other as they were, and the two talked for three days, and Li Shimin valued Fang Xuanling's outstanding Wen Tao martial strategy, gave him courtesy, and immediately let him join the army as the marching office of Weibei Province.
In September, the Li clique disagreed over the two decisions of taking Hedong and crossing Longmen Road directly to Guanzhong, and Fang Xuanling presented his own scheme to Li Shimin, which was summarized as "two subordinates"—that is, to have Li Yuan send troops to monitor the Hedong region and to garrison Guanzhong. In November, Li Yuan completely occupied the city of Daxing in Chang'an and established a puppet emperor, Emperor Gong of Sui.
At this time, the Sui Emperor still had some courtiers in Jiangdong, but he was powerless to return to heaven as today's division. His subordinates rebelled continuously, and the Sui Emperor eventually died at the hands of others. When Li Yuan learned of this news, he immediately forced Emperor Gong of Sui to give way to the emperor. It was 618, when Li Yuan was 53 years old, and Li Shimin, the duke to whom Fang Xuanling was loyal, was made the King of Qin by Li Yuan.
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruyi, a pair of advisers, stayed with Li Shimin, the King of Qin, in the Palace of Qin. Repelling Xue Shi and commanding the Long Right Army... Fang Du and Du used their strategies to win Li Yuan's praise for Li Shimin, and also established their position in the Li clique. The gradual growth of the power of Li Shimin, the King of Qin, and the assistance of Fang Xuanling and Du Ruyi were inseparable.
In 619, Liu Wuzhou in the north launched an attack on the newly established Li Tang regime, and Fang Xuanling followed the lord Li Shimin to fight in the east and west, giving advice. In October, Li Shimin originally wanted to confront Liu Wuzhou in Xindi, Shanxi, but Fang Xuanling persuaded Li Shimin to be cautious. Liu Wuzhou was fighting on the outside, and although the Tang army had greater advantages, it also had weaknesses.
Fang Xuanling proposed that Li Shimin use static braking to contain the enemy army and respond to changes without moving. After several months of confrontation between Liu Wuzhou and his collaborator Song Jingang and Li Shimin and others, because the logistics and material transportation route for grain and wages had been cut off, more than half of the dead and wounded fled to the Turks on their own, and Li Shimin won this major battle. After the victory against Liu Wuzhou, Li Shimin returned to Chang'an with his advisers to receive a reward and rest.
In July, Chang'an is in the middle of summer, and the noisy sound of cicadas adds a bit of fresh air to the serious Chang'an City. Fang Xuanling's wife, Lu Zhen'er, was pregnant and had just given birth, and Fang Xuanling was discussing military affairs with Li Shimin at this time. The two of them are both subordinates and very good friends. Therefore, upon learning the news of Fang's wife's birth, Li Shimin unceremoniously asked Fang Xuanling: "This time, is your family happy to make Zhang, or is it the joy of making tiles?"
Fang Xuanling has always been steady, but at this time he got good news, but he lost his past appearance of being too upright. He stroked his beard and said, "Make tiles, make tiles." ”
Li Shimin immediately laughed when he heard this, "This is your first daughter, I gave you a jewel in this crown, I heard that it can avoid evil." Fang Xuanling was even more grateful to see Li Shimin value himself so much, and without saying a word, he named his daughter Fengzhu, and his heart strengthened his heart to follow Li Shimin, the King of Qin.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="32" >4</h1>
In June of the ninth year of Wu De, the contradiction between Li Shimin's two brothers, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, intensified with him. Li Shimin has always established himself with military merit, and accompanied his father Li Yuan to the south to fight in the northern war, and his merits are outstanding. The crown prince Li Jiancheng had a wendun personality, while Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, had a violent personality, and seeing that the voices supporting Li Shimin in the imperial court were getting louder and louder, the two finally couldn't resist trying to attack Li Shimin's group of advisers.
The first people they wanted to do were Fang Xuanling and Du Ruyi. Li Jiancheng once said to Li Yuanji, the King of Qi: "The most fearsome of the Qin government's staff are only Fang Xuanling and Du Ruyi. Because of this, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji staged a good drama at the court meeting a few days later, when they falsely accused Fang Xuanling and Du Ruyi, although they appeared to be upright on the surface, but secretly hid the people's daughters and oppressed the people.
Tang Gaozu Li Yuan did not believe their arguments at first, but Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji had already prepared human and physical evidence, and as soon as several women arrived at the main hall, they began to cry and complain about the oppression of Fang Xuanling and Du Ruyi. In the face of living evidence, Li Yuan had no choice but to order fang Xuanling and Du Ruyi to be expelled from the Qin king's palace, go home and think about it behind closed doors, and not be allowed to meet the qin king privately.
With the removal of Li Shimin's two powerful helpers, the crown prince and the king of Qi wanted to directly assemble an army and take Li Shimin's life. However, what they did not expect was that there was Li Shimin's eyeliner in the East Palace, and they had already informed Li Shimin of this news in advance. Without the assistance of Fang Xuanling and Du Ruyi, Li Shimin had no choice but to discuss the matter with his other military generals, Chi Jingde, Qin Shubao, and others.
At this moment, it was a critical juncture of life and death, and Li Shimin had no choice but to ask the eldest son Wuji to secretly send Fang Du and the two of them. Fang Xuanling and Du Ruyi put on Taoist clothes and sneaked into the Qin King's Mansion, and as soon as they saw Li Shimin, Fang Du and Du directly knelt down and wept: "We don't know that the lord is in trouble, and we also ask the lord to prosecute the crime." ”
Li Shimin lifted the two men up and hurriedly asked for countermeasures. After Fang Xuanling sat down, he thought about it for a long time before he said to Li Shimin: "Every dynasty will have moments of crisis, only the real Ming Emperor will come forward and support the society, the prince has lost his morality, the lord you have always come to the south to fight in the north, and have made a lot of contributions to the country!" The prince and the king of Qi will definitely fail if they go against the heavens. Success or failure in this game, we must preemptively set up soldiers and horses at the Xuanwu Gate to take down the Prince and the King of Qi in one fell swoop! ”
Li Shimin understood Fang Xuanling's meaning, and he finally made up his mind to let his soldiers lurk in the woods of Xuanwu Gate in advance. When Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji came here on horseback, at the sound of an order, the heads of the two immediately landed on the ground. On that day, Xuanwumen was bleeding profusely, and it was not until Tang Gaozu Li Yuan and others came to Wei Jingde that they knew that the crown prince and the King of Qi were already dead.
Removing the threat from his brother, Li Shimin's style of behavior was more decisive, and at Fang Xuanling's suggestion, he used tough means to get Tang Gaozu to sit in his place a few years later. In 627, Li Shimin ascended the throne as Emperor Taizong of Tang. When discussing the merits and rewards, Li Shimin listed Fang Xuanling as his first hero.
Even at the imperial meeting, Li Shimin would sigh from time to time: "Xuan Ling is strategizing and winning thousands of miles away, he is like Xiao He to Liu Bang, without Xuan Ling, I am afraid that I would have died at the hands of others!" Xuan Ling really has the merit of stabilizing the society! ”
In the 4th year of Zhenguan, Fang Xuanling replaced the eldest grandson Wuji and became Shangshu Zuo's servant, the premier of the national administrative affairs. Although he was in a high position, Fang Xuanling never neglected his duties. He was a wise official, strict with himself, lenient with others, and approved decrees... These credits are obvious to all, so the whole country unanimously calls him a good man.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="43" > five, wearing liver and draining gallbladder, a generation of fame and glory</h1>
Zhenguan was 22 years old, and at this time Fang Xuanling was already 70 years old. Affected by the fatigue of his early years, he was already terminally ill and could only lie in bed to recuperate. Li Shimin was grateful for the assistance of this good minister, and frequently sent famous doctors to heal him, and even visited him in person. However, Fang Xuanling's condition has always been weak. On his deathbed, Fang Xuanling couldn't help but sigh again, and he said to his son in a serious tone, "If there is peace today, but what I am most worried about is the emperor..."
Before Fang Xuanling could finish speaking, tears flowed down. Li Shimin heard about this and hurriedly came from the palace to shake hands and say goodbye to Fang Xuanling.
A generation of famous xiangfang Xuanling finally passed away. From the general horn child to the seventy-year-old man, Fang Xuanling used his life to compose a legend of the Tang Dynasty. The portrait of Fang Xuanling, which Ling Yange never removed, proves the great merits of his life.
Although Fang Xuanling died, his son Fang Yi in 653 participated in the rebellion and sat guilty of death. But Fang Xuanling's exploits will never be erased by foreign objects. Without Fang Xuanling's painstaking and painstaking planning, there would have been no prosperous situation in the later Tang Dynasty's Zhenguan rule, and it can be said with certainty that he and Li Shimin achieved mutual achievements.
"Thirty years of the Yellow Pavilion, ten thousand years of fresh wind." In the long river of history, this generation of famous people will always be remembered.
