This is Yao Chong's attempt to bribe Zhang, his old enemy in the imperial court, so that he won't slander his reputation after his death, and he also wants to let his family go easy. Yao Chong was a famous prime minister in the Tang Dynasty. He has both ability and political integrity, outstanding political mind and military talent, and is a rare talent with both civil and military skills. During his tenure, he carried out strict reforms, developed the economy, promoted production, eliminated many disadvantages, and pushed the Tang Dynasty to the climax of prosperity one after another, laying the foundation for the arrival of the prosperous era of Kaiyuan.

And Yao Chong had an enemy in the imperial court named Zhang, who was incompatible with fire and water. Zhang is always in conflict with Yao Chong and often stands on the opposite side of Yao Chong. Yao Chong called his son before he died and told him to put the gold and silver treasures outside the coffin for Zhang to see.

It turns out that this one is greedy for money. Yao Chong was afraid that after his death, he would spread rumors and slander himself everywhere, or deliberately retaliate against his descendants by despicable means, so he wanted to buy him off with money. Sure enough, Zhang said that when he saw the pile of treasure, his eyes were straight. Yao Chong's son quickly selected some precious treasures for Zhang, and his mouth was full of joy.

Then he took the opportunity to let Zhang write an inscription for Yao Chong, saying that Zhang had just taken someone else's treasure, so it was only natural that he should pay tribute to Yao Chong in the inscription. A few days later, Zhang calmed down and figured it out, only to find himself trapped by Yao Chong and wrote an inscription full of praise to his sworn enemy.

Have to say, Yao Chong when it's sjms, extreme measure, quietly put Zhang said into a trap. Eating people has a soft mouth and short hands. Zhang said that after he took other people's money, he was embarrassed to think about getting back at Yao Chong's family. Yao Chong also left a way out for future generations.
