Life of the characters

Qingyun in Northern Zhou Dynasty

Su Wei was born in Jingzhao Martial Arts (now Wugong County, Shaanxi Province), a famous family. As a child, Solvay showed maturity. He lost his father when he was five years old, mourning like an adult.

When Taizu was in power in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, he inherited the title of Duke of meiyang county and served as a magistrate. Otsuka Zaiyu met him with courtesy and married his daughter Princess Xinxing to him. However, Su Wei saw that Yu Wenhu was dictatorial and despotic. He was afraid of disaster and fled to the mountains. However, he was forced by his uncle and could not avoid being an official. However, Suwei often lived in seclusion in the mountain temple and enjoyed reading. Soon after, he was granted the title of envoy Chijie, general of motorcycles and Yi Tong, and was renamed Duke of Huaidao county.

After the reign of Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Su Wei was granted the title of a junior doctor. As for the titles conferred by the former and the latter, Solvay refused to accept them on the ground of illness. Su Wei has a cousin who is married to yuanxiong in Hebei Province. Yuanxiong had a quarrel with Turks earlier. The Turks asked for obedience, but they wanted yuanxiong and his wife and children to be satisfied. The Northern Zhou Dynasty sent yuanxiong and his wife and children to Turk. "Barbarians love money and can bribe them to change their mind," suwe said So he sold off his property and house at a price, and redeemed yuan Xiong with all his family wealth. At that time, the public opinion thought that he was very benevolent. Emperor Xuan of Zhou succeeded to the throne and granted him the title of Kaifu.

To become an official in Sui Dynasty

When Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty was the Prime Minister of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Gao Xun repeatedly said that Su Wei was wise and wise, and Yang Jian always valued his fame, so he called him to the government. After Su Wei arrived at the prime minister's residence, Yang Jian led him to the inner room. After talking with him, he was very happy. After more than a month, Su Wei fled to his hometown after hearing about the discussion of Zen Buddhism in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Gao Xun asked to chase him back. Yang Jian said, "I don't want to take part in my big event. Let him go."

In the first year of kaihuang (581), Yang Jian accepted the throne of Zen in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. After that, he took Su Wei as the Minister of Taichang and the prince Shaobao, and presented his father as the Duke of piguo. He ate 3000 households in the city, which Su Wei inherited. Before long, he was also appointed as Nayan and Minister of the Ministry of officials. Su Wei made a concession, and Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty issued an imperial edict, saying: "the ship should carry more things, and the horse is about to run far away. Just because you have many kinds of talents, don't refuse to do more." Suey just stopped.

Su Chuo, the father of Su Wei, was considered too heavy in the Western Wei Dynasty because of the lack of state spending. So he sighed: "what we are doing now is not a law in peacetime, just like a bow. Who can reduce such a tax law When Suwei heard this, he often took it as his duty. So at this time, Su Wei asked the emperor to reduce taxes and labor, to adopt a lighter system, and to seek the well-being of the people. But it is not always the case. For example, Su Wei once suggested that the number of registered permanent residence was too large, and the land in the world was not enough, so that the government could reduce the fiefdoms of ministers to supply the people, which was opposed by Wang Yi, the great situ.

Four important officials

Su Wei was gradually attached importance to by Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty, and took part in the administration with Gao Xun, so that Lu Ben was not convinced. When he saw the silver hook in the palace, he tried to tell the emperor the virtue of thrift. For this reason, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty changed his face and ordered people to remove and destroy all the old carved and decorated articles. Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty once resented a man and was about to kill him. Su Wei came to the cabinet to advise him. Emperor Wen refused to accept and was extremely angry. He wanted to go out and kill himself. Su Wei stopped him and refused to leave. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty evaded Su Wei and left the palace. Su Wei blocked him and refused to let him go. Emperor Wen had to return to the palace. After a long time, he called Suwei into the temple and said, "you can do this. I have nothing to worry about." So he was rewarded with two horses for more than 100000 yuan. Soon after, Su Wei was also the Minister of Dali, Jing Zhaoyin, and the imperial historian, but his original position remained unchanged.

Liang PI, the imperial censor of Zhishu, thinks that Su Wei has five duties and is greedy for various positions of power. He doesn't mean to recommend sages to replace him. He plans to impeach Su Wei. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty said: "Su Wei worked hard from morning to night, had lofty aspirations, and was deficient in recommending talents. How could he be forced to do so urgently?" He said to Su Wei, "if you are appointed, you will become an official. If you are not appointed, you will hide." only you and I have this characteristic He also said to the courtiers, "Suwei can't say what he wants to say if he doesn't meet me. How can I carry out my policy if I don't get Suwei? Yang Su's eloquence is unparalleled in the world, but if you want to refer to the ancient and modern times and help me educate the people, you can't compare with Su Wei. If Su Wei is in trouble, can Su Wei be inferior to the four Hao on Zhongnan mountain? " Therefore, at that time, Su Wei, Gao Yu, Yang Xiong and Yu Qing were called "four noble".

Soon after, Su Wei, the Minister of the Ministry of punishment, relieved the prince Shaobao and the imperial historian. Later, Jing Zhaoyin was removed from the organizational system and official position, and Su Wei was appointed as the school inspector Yongzhou Biejia. At that time, Gao Xun and Su Wei worked together. No matter how big or small the political and criminal laws were, they planned carefully and revised from time to time in the implementation of the rule of law. Soon after, he was appointed Minister of the Ministry of democracy, and still served as Nayan. In July of the fifth year of kaihuang (585), there was a great drought in Guanzhong, and flood broke out in Henan. Emperor Wen of Sui ordered Su Wei to provide relief. In the first month of the sixth year of kaihuang (586), there was a famine in Shandong, and Emperor Wen of Sui ordered Su Wei to inspect the relief. In April of the seventh year of kaihuang (587), Su Wei was appointed Minister of the Ministry of officials. In August of the eighth year of kaihuang (588), there was a famine in various prefectures of Hebei Province. Su Wei was also responsible for the relief work and also served as the son's sacrificial wine.

The Sui Dynasty was founded after the war, and the laws and regulations were in a mess. After the first year of kaihuang (580), the Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty revised the laws, Su Wei raised objection to the clauses from time to time. So in 583, the Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty ordered the courtiers to revise the laws again, as a common system of canons. Most of the standards and styles of the decrees were formulated by Suwei, who was regarded by the world as talented. In the ninth year of kaihuang (589), he was worshipped by the right servant of Shangshu. This year, Su Wei left because of his mother's death. During his filial piety, he was as thin as a log because of grief. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty told Su Wei, "you are superior to ordinary people in moral character and have deep feelings. Your filial piety is just like condescending. We must restrain sorrow and cherish ourselves for our country. For you, I am a monarch and a father. You should protect yourself according to my will Soon, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty ordered that Su Wei's principal should be re appointed. He insisted on refusing. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty issued an imperial edict to comfort him that he was not allowed to refuse. In 590, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty visited Bingzhou and ordered him to stay in the capital with Gao Xun. Soon after, he called Su Wei to the place of Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty to deal with civil litigation. Suwei shangzou asked for the establishment of five hundred prefectures, and proposed to abolish the county system. Although there was a dispute with Li Delin, he got the support of Gao Zhen, and his suggestions were adopted by Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty.

Friends bring disaster

Su Kui, the son of Su Wei, was famous all over the world when he was young. Most of the famous people in the world agreed with him. In the 12th year of kaihuang (592), because of the discussion of music, Su Kui and Dr. Guozi he Tuo both insisted on their own views and formed their own opinions, so the imperial court asked the civil and military officials to express which opinion they agreed with. Most of the courtiers attached to Su Wei, and those who agreed with Su Kui accounted for 89%. He Tuo said angrily: "I have been studying for more than 40 years, but I was humiliated by a hairy child!" Li Honggong and Su Hongwei, together with Li Honggong, were called the brothers of Wang Daogong. He also said that Su Wei used improper means to make his cousins Su Che, Su Su and so on fake officials. In addition, Guozixue invited Wang Xiaoyi from dangyin as a doctor of calligraphy, and Lu Kai, a subordinate of Suwei, introduced Wang Xiaoyi to join the army in Suwei's mansion.

Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty ordered Yang Xiu, king of Shu, and Yu Qingze of Shangzhu state to conduct a comprehensive investigation, and all the accusations were proved. Therefore, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty asked Su Wei to read the part of the clique incident in the biography of Xie Hui in the book of the Song Dynasty. Su Wei was afraid and took off his hat to kowtow. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty said, "it's too late." So he removed all the official posts of Suwei and returned them to his family as the founder. Among the well-known people, more than one hundred were implicated by Suwei and were convicted.

Soon, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty said, "Su Wei is a man of virtue, but he was implicated." Get him back in office. In July of the fourteenth year of kaihuang (594), he resumed the title of Suwei piguo Gong and served as Nayan. Suwei follows the Emperor
