Life of the characters

Tang Zhen read a lot. In her youth, she lived in seclusion with Wang Shou and Wang Chong for 15 years in Shihu. At first, she was born in Wujun county. In 1531, she was selected as a Taixue in the exam year. When she died, someone advised him to act according to the hidden rules and find someone to dredge up the relationship. As a result, she only paid homage to the county magistrate of Chongde. Therefore, the historical records said that he was "not good at ten exams, but late at one.". Although the position of county magistrate is not high, Tang Zhen thinks that as long as it can reach the people, it doesn't matter to go. When he was in office, everything was easy and convenient for the people. On several occasions, when the magistrate was no longer in charge of the county government, he did not punish the officials and criminals, and he was pleasant, but things were still done in good order. Therefore, his reputation rose and he was deeply loved by the people. The local people called him "Buddha". However, Tang Zhen's style of streamlining administration and calming the people angered his superiors. Some officials criticized him for being slow and insensitive. He moved to the palace of the Tang Dynasty to offer sacrifices to the emperor. He lives in bifengli of the city, and he is in Huqiu.
