_》

All his life, Li Tao read the classics and history, and "searched for the hundred" scholars. He took charge of the history. He wrote Hongfu all his life, and xuzizhi Tongjian Changbian is his representative work. The official writing time of this work should be the 24th year of Shaoxing (1154), when Li Tao was 40 years old. When he took office in Shuangliu County of Zhicheng Prefecture, he "turned over the history books and collected the facts of the next Dynasty. The predicate of Sima Guangxiu's history was the first fifteen volumes of the table of hundred officials and ministers, and then it was lost. They sought for official history and factual records, collected family collections and unofficial histories, and expanded their categories. From Jianlong to Jingkang, they combined the old and new official systems and formed 142 volumes. Only one of the seven redrafters of the book "Chang Bian" started from this. In fact, this work should have been compiled earlier.

In the ninth year of Chunxi (1182), he said that in order to repair the book, "it took 40 years.". On this basis, not long after Li Tao studied in longheshan.

From 1163 to 1177, Li Tao advanced this book four times.

In the first year of Longxing (1163), Li Tao took office in zhirongzhou and entered the Taizu Dynasty. From the first year of Jianlong (960) to the ninth year of Kaibao (976) of Taizu of Song Dynasty, there are 17 volumes. At that time, Li Tao was 49 years old.

In the fourth year of Qiandao (1168), the Five Dynasties of Taizu, Taizong, Zhenzong, Renzong and Yingzong, which had already been completed, included 108 volumes, including 175 volumes and catalogue. It can be seen from the table of "continued Zizhi Tongjian long edition" that this book imitates Sima Guang's style of "Zizhi Tongjian" in compilation method. This year, Li Tao was 54 years old.

In the first year of Chunxi (1174), when Li Tao was 60 years old, he entered the "Changbian" of Shenzong Dynasty. From 1067 to 1100, there were 417 volumes.

In 1176, Emperor Xiaozong promoted Li Tao to be the Secretary Supervisor, who was in charge of the compilation of national history and the compilation of the actual records. The imperial court intended to pay Li Tao for historical events.

Chunxi four years (1177), Huizong, qinzong two dynasties "Changbian" compiled, Xiaozong praised him "worthy of Sima Guang". This is the end of "one ancestor and eight schools" in the Northern Song Dynasty. But Li Tao was still revising and rewriting. The revision work was completed in 1180, 1183 and 1182, respectively. Bai Shouyi thought in the general history of China that such a voluminous work, according to the requirements of the emperor Xiaozong, had more than 4400 items to add or lose, which could not be completed in one or two years. It should be revised to the seventh year of Chunxi (1180), the ninth year of Chunxi (1182), "re write in", and completed in the tenth year of Chunxi (1183). There are also ten volumes of xiuhuanshimu, sixty-eight volumes of juyao and five volumes of Zongmu. A total of 1063 volumes. All relevant materials, such as the actual records, national history, Huiyao, unofficial history, Jiacheng, epitaphs, and Xingli, are widely collected. Among them, there are a lot of historical materials.

The original motive of Li Tao's "xuzizhitongjian Changbian" was to sort out the historical events of the Northern Song Dynasty and the nine dynasties. He said: "I try my best to study history, and I admire the stories of this dynasty. Every time I hate the biography of scholar bureaucrats, I can't believe it if I don't study the actual records and official history. For example, the Zen teaching of Jianlong and Kaibao, the death of Fuling, Qi and Wei, the oath of Jingde and Qingli, the betrayal of Guoxiao and Liangzuo, the establishment of Jiayou, the restoration of peace, the renewal of Xining, and the old plan of Yuanyou are the most important events. The family has its own opinions, and the officials have a lot of anger and discussion, which makes all the opinions come together It can be seen that Li Tao's initial interest in compiling history lies in the collection and collation of documents.

The material selection of xuzizhitongjianchangbian is "rather loss than complexity, but not loss than strategy". The compilation process is also carried out according to the long compilation method. First, the year and year are taken as the cluster items, and the cluster items are completed, but the long compilation is carried out. Li Tao's understanding of history
