Fortunately, the history of China is full of miracles, which always gives people comfort. Recently, it was found in a vast number of historical records that there were two generals in the middle and late Tang Dynasty, one was a prime minister, who was lewd, which was not easy in the middle and late Tang Dynasty.
One is General Gao Chongwen. Gao Chongwen was born in 746 and died in 809. He was a famous general in the Tang Dynasty. People from Bohai (now Ning 'an, Heilongjiang) moved to Youzhou (now Beijing). He is simple and taciturn, and he has little experience in Pinglu troops. In Zhenyuan, he guarded Changwucheng from Han town, ruled the army by sound, and was tired of being a general. Tubo 30 thousand Kouningzhou, Chongwen led the troops to break it, and sealed the king of Bohai County with merit.
In the first year of Yuanhe, Tang Xianzong's general Gao Chongwen was ordered to crusade against Liu Pi, the separatist regime in Xishu, and entered Chengdu all the way. Gao Chongwen An Lushan, rest foot soldiers, the market is not surprised. When expensive goods pile up, autumn flowers don't go wrong. Finally, he was captured and escorted back to the capital, and Shu was in Suiping.
Liu Pi has two concubines, both very beautiful. All the soldiers advised Gao Chongwen to accept it, but Gao Chongwen was unmoved by beauty and insisted on not doing it. Please present the army to the emperor as a reward. Chongwen said, "The son of heaven ordered me to be fierce and calm the people first. It is not the emperor's intention to dedicate beauty to charm! Chongwenyi is not for this. " So the two beauties were given to those officials who had no wives, and the soldiers believed in it. He who has a beautiful wife is even more happy that he can't find the north.
The other is general Li. Li was born in the third year (760) and died in September of the second year (826). From Zongyuan, the early years to the early years of Zongbao, Li served as Daizhou, Luozhou and Cishi, and served as an advisor to the imperial history. Militarily, Ren Zhongwu knew all about military forces and soldiers, and was loyal to our army. Our troops were stationed in Fengxiang, Xuzhou and Hedong, and acceded to the throne with Mu Zong. He acceded to the throne with Zhongshu, Jing Zong acceded to the throne, and worshipped Stuart. Li went to the western seas all his life, and he was brave and good at fighting, with outstanding achievements. In order to defend the Tang Dynasty and attack the forces of the buffer region, he risked his life and spared no effort.
Tang Xianzong Yuanhe ten years, Han Hong rate Huaixi armies crusade against Wu Yuanji. Among these generals, Li is the best at fighting. In order to win his heart, Han Hong found a beautiful woman in Daliang City (now Kaifeng City), taught her to dance, dance, silk and bamboo, and decorated her with pearls, jade and gold. And sent someone to send the beauty to Li's barracks. At that time, Yan Guang was holding a celebration party. The messenger sent this peerless beauty, which was a great surprise. Yan Guang calmly said to the messenger, "Xianggong (referring to Han Hong) pitied me for being left unattended in the army and gave me a beauty. I appreciate it. However, tens of thousands of soldiers of the whole army came to serve far away from home. Everyone cares about life and death, but I Li can't bear to entertain myself alone! " That is, give the messenger a generous gift at the dinner table and return a beauty. The soldiers were moved by the smell, and they expressed their willingness to work hard.
Since Li won the title of general, three emperors, namely Xian Zong and He, all promoted his status and knight. I also gave him gold, silver, jewelry, jade belts and other things, which was extremely glorious. After his death, he abandoned the DPRK for three days and gave it to Qiu and posthumous title as "loyalty".
At the end of the Tang Dynasty, there was also a prime minister named Hu Ling who refused to accept bribes.
Hu Ling, a native of Huayuan, Jing Zhao (now southeast of Yao County, Shaanxi Province), is straight. Tang Wenzong was a scholar in the fourth year of Daiwa (830). He served as a school librarian, left gleaner, left vacancy, foreign minister and right secretary. Tang Wuzong was then the ambassador of Huzhou (now Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province). Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty became prime minister in 850. Since then, I have been working in this position until Xuanzong died in the 13th year of Dazhong (859), and I lived in this position for 10 years.
In the Tang Dynasty, Pei recorded a story about refusing bribes: A man named Bi P, who worked in imperial academy, was quick-witted and beautifully written, and was appreciated by others. Tang Xuanzong promised to promote him as prime minister.
Bi P was born in Xuchang, Yunzhou (now Dongping, Shandong). Without loneliness and poverty, I often burn money to study, work hard and be self-motivated. He was a scholar in the Daiwa period of Tang Wenzong, and he was especially good at singing and poetry because of his long history. After Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty acceded to the throne, Bi P was appointed as a Hanlin bachelor, a Chinese calligrapher and an assistant minister in addition to punishment. KPMG knew that then Prime Minister Hu Ling didn't like him. Although the emperor thinks highly of himself, if he can't tolerate Prime Minister Hu Ling, it will be difficult for him to get promoted.
For the sake of public interest, Bi P was transferred to Ning, and Fengxiang and Beimen were successively transferred from Ning. In fact, these are normal cadre transfers. But Bishop thinks this is Hu Ling's strategy to prevent himself from joining the cabinet. After careful consideration, he decided to reconcile with Hu Ling through sexual bribery, so he found a beautiful woman in Beimen Town where he worked, dressed her with jewels and sent someone to Hu Ling. Seeing this beautiful woman, Hu Ling was heartbroken and dumbfounded.
At this point, although Hu Ling was confused, he didn't lose his mind and stay awake. He said to his son, "stunners can harm people." Babi, "I didn't participate in this matter, but now I'm seducing me. I want to abandon my family!" " That is to say, Bi P doesn't like him. Nowadays, if you give him a beautiful woman, you must ask him for something. Must be to throw the bait and get out of trouble. If he takes the bait, it will cause serious consequences of bankruptcy.
When Hu Ling, the Prime Minister, saw the beauty on Bi Feng, he sent someone to send her back. The man dared not directly return the beauty to Bi P, and stopped at a post office to wait for news of Bi P. In order to show sincerity and loyalty, Bi P wrote a letter to Hu Ling, begging him to accept the beauty, but Prime Minister Hu Ling refused to accept it. Bi P had to order the post office officials to sell beautiful women, and this sexual bribery incident was a complete failure.
Premier Hu Ling is very different from Han Huang. He won't lose his gender because of women. Faced with the temptation of womanhood, he can make a rational choice between satisfying selfish desires and preserving fame and wealth. He won't lose big because of small.
Hu Ling was born into a noble family, and his father Ling Huchu also served as prime minister in Yuanhe years in Tang Xianzong. According to the records in Zi Tong Zhi Jian, Hu Ling was promoted to prime minister, to some extent because Linghu Chu's loyalty to Xianzong moved Xuanzong. Hu Ling, the son of Linghu, was known as "White Prime Minister" because he was arrogant and illegal and took bribes to sell officials.
