", They abstain from luxury to thrift" is Jian Chen Wei Zheng reminder for Emperor Taizong of the Tang dynasty, as well as themselves. Wei Zheng life frugal living poor, home without being accommodated, quality mattress fabric was, he had no concubines and good wife alone, he did not live fast, love alone vinegar celery, his wife Pei Shi had used "effects of levy and his frugality" evaluation of one's husband, Wei Zheng's daily life is extremely frugal. He did, is really no money or pretended to be poor? Open history makes discovery, as a court, a high-ranking official with heavy responsibility, Wei Zheng in addition to wages higher revenue, wages of hidden income is quite amazing.
"Night-free grass not fertilizer, without extra income not rich". Many senior officials in the Tang dynasty have extra income such as remuneration for a writer, Wei Zheng different, his wage income is mostly jinjian great proficiency on our own, hit the Emperor Taizong of vital, appreciation by the Emperor, while harvesting political honor, unknowingly also be visible, tangible economic benefits. Tong Jian from the Chinese governance, new and old, and the Tang of the Zhenguan, such as politicians, the Wei Zhenggong admonishing recording found in reliable historical information, Wei Zheng and outs be rewarded more than more than 10 times, a few hundred horse and silk, more than 400,000, silk 400 horses, colourful, pinched finger counting, this is a very jealous indeed digital.
Wei Zheng jinjian first taste of taste, to persuade Emperor Taizong stopped recruitment of young men as soldiers. Morality for nine years (626), right servant shot de Yi Zhuang men playing upon to recruitment under the age of 18 as soldiers, Thandrong agreed. Royal Decree broke, Wei Zheng obstinate opposition refuses to sign. Taizongda angry, he called the Palace in the blame: "men in tall strong are the persons who raped people falsely aged to avoid corvee, call them what's the harm, and you're so stubborn! "Wei Zheng to levy soldiers, suspected of fraud, false to the people from the Suppression of male soldiers in Tang Taizong levy, for this to be a Jin Weng.
First year of Zhenguan (627), Hall of Lingnan clanlord Ang feng, on the fighting, not in Korea for a long time. Local state capital said Feng Angmou is played before and after a dozen anti-, massive crusade against of the Thandrong command. Wei Zheng analysis after the Lingnan terrain, climate and situation, think Ang Feng rebels have not yet formed, should not raise a big Rumpus, recommendation too sectarian envoys to appease and avoid war. In October, Thandrong to Lingnan condolences sent CHING section Ang feng, Ang Feng makes his son FUNG Chi-wood as envoys return wearing the Imperial Court. Thandrong said: Wei Zheng let me send a Messenger, Lingnan to stability than the role of the army of 100,000, cannot but add tours. So given to Wei Zhengjuan silk 500 horses.
Second year of Zhenguan (629), was an information assistant officer Wei Zheng right in favor of his relative, Royal collectors doctor Wen Yanbo questioning too sectarian, and no evidence is found after a thorough inspection. In this incident, Wei Zheng to educate Emperor Taizong Emperor and whole, requirements should be dedicated to each other. Wei Zheng said, is honored to work for his Majesty, his Majesty is willing to let officials do unscrupulous officials, do not let Robinson loyal. Thandrong asked: "loyalty, good what difference? "Wei Zheng replied:" the God of agriculture, and the title deed, and Gao pottery, Emperor and concerted efforts and share the glory, this is benign and officials said. Long Pang, than dry fanyan advise frankly, died, and said this is loyal. "Thandrong very happy after hearing, giving silk 500 horses.
Five year of Zhenguan (631), shiyushi Quan Wanji are Thandrong and Li renfa information others dote on, men of Ministers were repeatedly shoot. Wei Zheng advised advice: "villains such as Quan Wanji, does not know the rule in General, others as with respect to information, to backbiters as loyalty. Majesty do not know they cannot stand, just take its speech without taboos, want to whip a horse on with a horsestick all the Ministers, but Quan Wanji and others rely on imperial en rely on power, so that their conspiracy to succeed, where the impeachment are not really guilty. Since his Majesty cannot give good to encourage customs, how can parents crafty and evil to damage its prestige! "Thandrong silent, gave Wei Zhengjuan 500. Later, Quan Wanji and others of rape itself exposed, shall be punished.
Six year of Zhenguan (632 AD) is a harvest year of Wei Zheng. This year, Princess Changle to be married off Princess Thandrong to be Queen's own, special love, Decree raccompagner 1 time times greater than a Prince in danger long Princess Yongjia. When Wei Zheng hanmingdi ' Prince mining Yap, cannot be compared, for example the son of the late Emperor, persuading Thandrong raccompagner can not be more than long Princess Princess Changle. Thandrong think that rational, informed the Queen in the Palace, Queen Wende smell it, wedding, sent the eunuch Wei Zheng, and rewarded the money of 200,000, 400 silk.
That year, Emperor Taizong jiucheng Palace riding, hosted a dinner in close to the Minister, Zhangsun Wuji said Wei Zheng serve Prince implicit in the past, I see them as seen as enemies, imagine today with the party. Thandrong said: Wei Zheng was my enemy in the past, but he can serve boss soul output, this is very commendable. I promoted him, than the ancients should be no blush! Wei Zheng often ignored feelings sincerely advised admonishing, doesn't allow me to do something wrong, so I thinks highly of him. Wei Zheng and then worshipped said Majesty's advice leads me, I just dare comments. If his Majesty does not accept my views, and how do I dare to make Dragon scale, contact taboo. Taizonglong heart and joy, reward of 150,000 per person.
Zhenguan May 13, Wei Zheng Thandrong all the five above on the official seal of comprehensively summed up the Government, rather than at the beginning of Zhenguan facts, playing upon Thandrong, which is the famous of the ten would be be unable to drain. Shu Thandrong is listed in search for curios, lechery to labour people, close the villain, sparse gentleman, advocate extravagance, frequency matter Safari, no start war, makes people tired of corv��e and so be unable to end ten, criticized feelings of joy full Thandrong, again he began cautiously. After the Thandrong after reading the Memorial to the throne, gladly accepted, and said to him: "I shall have this smell, and is willing to change, end good. Contrary to his when He Shi face and meet each other, there isn't! On the parties to the Shu, as a barrier, study day, and official historian recorded, making Jesus Christ known monarch. "Was given ten pounds of gold, horses the second horse.
In addition to jinjian, Wei Zheng lower game can easily also be thin benefits. Wende Queen born Princess months full, Thandrong dinner qunchen Yu Danxiao Hall, Wei Zheng bet go. Wei Zheng to "Robinson of no bet" to be rejected, Thandrong in "I shall know you had, without speech" forced to gamble under Wei Zheng. Said: "I shall know you have loyalty is, you win, shunt and June; you if it is better, not today. "And they began to play chess, dozens of children, Thandrong said:" you have to win! "Given by one, and Golden saddle and rein, giving silk thousand horses.
In addition, Wei Zheng through editing and composition, have also been some hard money, which is also his other hidden income. He write out day ceremony and for the note, 1000 horses. For the history of the Sui dynasty as prodromes, for the beam, and the Chen and the alignment of the introduction, history, and Zuo Guanglu doctor, Zheng Guogong, God of 2000. Give 2000 segment of what is how much? According to Tang regulations, "where the giving of ten is about rate to, silk three horses, three-Terminal, cotton four". Translation up 2000 silk 600, 600 end, Mian 800. By perennial in the Tang dynasty Silk cloths price equivalent, 2.3-end cloth when silk 2, 600-side equivalent of silk 520. Mian binary count, 800 silk 400 horses. 2000 approximately 1500 horse and silk.
Incomplete statistics, Wei Zheng received a reward at least 3,900 silk, coupled with the given equivalent to about 1500 of silk, silk was only one, Wei Zheng winning a total of approximately 5,600, Zhenguan five or six years "a horse and silk millet over more than 10 stone", his reward is equivalent to millet 56,000 stone, was the second officer 112 years of wage income. In another award, ten pounds of gold almost 10,002 silver, equivalent to 1 million money, together with the cash received 350,000, is 1.35 million in total, said Wei Zheng's rolling, a little too much. Four year of Zhenguan (630) m (bucket) 3-4 money, its prize money to buy rice 337,500 bucket, which is 33,750 stone, equivalent to 67 years of wages was second officer.
Other articles are not considered, only two, Wei Zheng award equivalent to the second officer received 179 years of wage income. He was 64 years old, is from birth to death is the second officer, its rewards are also approximately three wage equivalent to the second officer. So a count, say Qing Wei Zheng were not as a poor man, think he is a millionaire. From the perspective of historical records, Wei Zheng had not refused to Thandrong a reward, nor do any public welfare undertakings. His household spending is also very simple, in addition to support a wife and four children, it seems that not too much expenditure, household expenditures, his wages are entirely affordable. Then, Wei Zheng rich why can't let go spend it?
Wei Zheng followed Thandrong in officialdom, was "biting" work, really offended a group of people who have been bitten, report Wei Zheng was biased towards the family is the best example. If the economy had taken on, objects become Bay for blood, this is perhaps the Wei Zheng to keep consumption of the main reasons for it. In addition, Wei Zheng's wife Pei Shi is famous as a good wife, life carefully, set strict demands, Wei Zheng rich is not afraid to spend, but took a hen-pecked won't. Such a huge bonus, exactly where to go? Only guessing only one pigment pad of cloth was in his home a corner.
Anyway, Wei Zheng produce generous reward is not obtained through corruption, with their own hard work, he even was a millionaire, is also acceptable. The Thandrong one of these awards, but in reality how dare admonishing people to provide a basis for reference. If some people like Wei Zheng dared to fight against crooked ways, sent him a two-ton large medals, believe that the public will not have any comment.
