Di Qing accumulated military achievements in the Shubian army, and was promoted step by step from soldier to Privy Counsellor of the Imperial Court, also known as Wu Zaixiang at that time, responsible for the military of the whole country, equivalent to the current Minister of National Defense. After developing the nobles, someone asked to help him wash off the tattoos on his face when he joined the army, and Di Qing always smiled but did not smile. Emperor Renzong also asked him to wash off the tattoo on his face, and Di Qing said, "It's not that I can't wash off this tattoo on my face, I just want to encourage the soldiers to tell them that as long as they work hard and make meritorious contributions, they can also be promoted to high positions." Emperor Renzong therefore valued him even more.
