From Taichang Cheng, he became a doctor and changed his right orthodoxy; tomorrow, he will give up the people's court directly; and tomorrow, he will judge Liu Neiquan: all of them are appointed by God to honor the emperor. In the early days of the Qing Dynasty, he selected people to draw up plans, first came to the south of Cao, and then took the examination of merit. If the comprehensive examination is not possible, the officials will be cheated by the articles, and the electors will not be allowed to sue the chief officials. When he finished playing the song, he set up a public house to wait for those who came to sue. The imperial edict was issued without trial. Khitan replaced the state territory with 200000 soldiers, and sent envoys to replace the territory. The envoys who were hired by the year old did not dare to do so, but ordered the generals. The general said to him, "I have to be a servant. The court has a lot to discuss. If the northerners talk about the affairs of daizhou, they will hurt the nation if they don't give a discount. " Then he ordered the Privy Council to read the documents. To the north, the residents gathered across the houses and said, "look at the number one scholar of the Southern Dynasties."

Zhang Deng, an official of Shangyuan Dynasty, was a thief. He was imprisoned and said, "it's the only way to reform." When he was sent, no one broke the law and the three prisons were empty. My father sighed and said, "since the 56th year after Wang Yigong, I have seen you again." Yun vulgar scholars like to gather in order to slander the government. Although they are forbidden, their custom will cease. He was called Minister of the Ministry of war. Shangshu said: "in the situation, military measures are the most obvious and easy to know; in the use of power, they are the least and difficult to be able to. This is the best opportunity in the world. In order to govern the army, there is a system. Although the name is different, it is horizontal, square and round, so that all people are just one person. There are several chariots and horses. Although they are used differently, they are combined and separated. If they are scattered and converged, it is still a small step to take four directions. If the tools are made moderately, though the work is different, they are left to right and near to far, so that they are able to transport people. Who is not the Supreme God in the world He also wrote eight things, thinking that "there are three things about soldiers: ban soldiers, Xiang soldiers and militia.

In the near future, when the book of victory came, he would turn to Fuhe and Huanggong for ten years. Zhu Er, the censor's Zhongcheng, took the old Xie Zhang's form, analyzed the sentence as slander, and said: "if you look left and right, you will return when you see the benefit, and if you change the picture, there is no final conclusion at the beginning. Yuanyou was under the jurisdiction of Cheng, but Yuanfeng was the most important one. At the beginning of Shao Sheng's restoration, it was Yin that concealed what yuan you had done. If he is caught in Jianzhong and still lives here, then Shaosheng is not what he did. Today, Jianzhong's actions will be changed.
