Lu Zhi, Yu Jing, was born in Jiaxing, Suzhou in the Tang Dynasty. /kloc-Become a monk at the age of 0/8 and become a learned person. He has served as county commandant, eight-product suggestion, Hanlin bachelor, remonstrator, assistant minister of Ministry of War, prime minister and zhongzhou driver. He has been cautious all his life, even the emperor thinks he is cautious. He made great achievements, which made Quan Deyu, a politician in the Tang Dynasty, compare him with Wei Zhi, Ling Xuan, Yao Chong and Song Jing. He also said that his exposition of current affairs was wonderful and immortal. Su Dongpo, a famous artist in the Song Dynasty, also spoke highly of him and even thought that his intelligence was comparable to Sean's. He had to speculate on Jia Yi, whose articles brought together the elites of ancient times and learned from the turtle faction with chaotic management. 1. Honest and clean, Lu Zhi was rigid, simple, honest and clean all his life. As early as when Zeng Dong served as the magistrate of Zheng County in Huazhou, he had returned to the mother of Luoyang and visited the famous Shouzhou secretariat Zhang Yi. Zhang Yi admired him very much and made friends with him. When she left, she gave him a million dollars and said, please use this as a teacher's fee for one day. Lu Zhi thanked him again and again, but got nothing. To show his gratitude, he only received a bunch of new tea. Zhang Yi values him more and thinks he is a clever man. In the third year of Zhenyuan, Lu Zhi official Ren Zhongshu gave his wife. At this time, my mother Xiahou died in Luoyang. The news came out that he received gifts from the government and the public. However, he still confiscated nothing. History books also record millions of adherents from all directions, and the public has nothing to suffer. After Lu Zhi was promoted to Prime Minister, he became more strict with himself. At that time, some domineering buffer regions relied on their strength to go their own way. Many court officials competed with the same buffer region for their own interests; However, in order to keep up with the development of the imperial court and get internal assistance, vassal towns always attract imperial officials with generous gifts. As the minister in charge of state affairs, Lu Zhi naturally became the object of efforts of many buffer regions. As a result, everything from gold and silver to whip boots was delivered to his door, and he refused as always. Although an honest man will be praised by a gentleman in Lu Zhi, he will also be attacked by a villain. Some people say that he is fishing for fame, while others say that he is not good at guiding the relationship between superiors and subordinates. Shi Li, the fatuous Emperor of Dezong, was amazed at what he had done, so the secret order scolded him for being too cautious and told him that if he didn't accept valuables, he wouldn't tolerate trifles and wouldn't do any harm. Lu Zhi immediately went to Shu Shu, saying that he did not dare to accept the imperial edict, and said: People don't want to pay bribes, but what they do is beneficial, so you can rest assured. He also said: to eliminate bribery, we must first start from the top, because what we do from the top will lead us to the bottom. If you don't do what you do, you can check what you do. Therefore, people who take bribes without profit should not take precedence over you. Only when the monarch takes the lead in setting an example can court ministers and even local officials at all levels be honest and law-abiding. 2. Be kind to the people. Lu Zhi has always advocated being generous and kind to the people, and put raising good people and eating good food in the first place. He said: people are the foundation of a nation; Wealth, the heart. Heart injury is the original injury, which makes the branches stumble and the roots sprout. Therefore, the founding of the country, the people do not raise first, the country does not stand; People eat only if they don't eat, and people don't eat. Hello. Based on this, when he made a county magistrate, he put forward a series of suggestions to his superiors about being lenient and caring for the people, such as observing the people's feelings, being honest for officials, saving taxes, helping the poor and disaster relief, and saving government expenses. It's a pity that most of his good ideas are shelved because of his eloquence. Later, Lu Zhi's official position continued to improve and his power continued to expand, but his thought of leniency, benevolence and love for the people still existed.

Even if natural disasters occur, they are levied according to the number of people, which makes people complain. Proceeding from objective reality, Lu Zhi has abolished these two hard and fast rules. At the same time, he recorded the increase and decrease of household registration, the victory and defeat of fields and the number of warehouses set up to prevent natural disasters in the areas under the jurisdiction of officials. As a measure of whether an official is competent or not. Third, Lu Zhi stressed that we should do more practical things for the people, such as building water conservancy projects, reclaiming wasteland and building schools. He has been working hard for this goal for many years. Even when he was persecuted and exiled to Zhongzhou in his later years, he still cared about the sufferings of the people. At that time, miasma attacked people in Zhongzhou area, and diseases prevailed, and the people suffered greatly. Busy as he was, he overcame all kinds of difficulties. From 0755 to 79000, he searched the Pharmacopoeia, collected prescriptions and compiled 50 articles, making a final effort to relieve the sufferings of the people. Tang Dezong Shirley is a greedy and profitable person. According to historical records, he searched and plundered the property stored in the library, but only allowed in, not out. Even if Tian Yue, Li and others led the rebellion and were short of military supplies in Jianzhong Dynasty, he would not take out his own stock money. When he was driven to Fengtian by the rebels, his mind was full of gold and silver treasures. Therefore, after the recovery of Hedong, various factions contributed more and more widely, and began to collect tribute under the porch, sealing Qionglin and Daying for private purposes. In this regard, Lu Zhi couldn't stand it anymore, so he boldly said: The war has not been extinguished, the groans of people trapped in service are all over the country, and the soldiers who risked their lives to fight have not seen any return. All the tributes and treasures, all the eyes see, who can stand it! Back in Chang 'an, his selfish desires expanded even more. He even secretly told all localities to pay tribute to him, and regarded the amount of tribute as an important condition for promotion. As a result, some buffer towns have monthly supply, which is called monthly supply; Some people worship every day and make progress every day. As prime minister, Li Mi specially invited Dezong to stop paying tribute. However, when he saw Dezong, he was too disappointed to speak. Lu Zhi didn't say before him that the tribute your majesty wanted didn't come from the ground, not from the sky, but from the imperial court, Fang town, state capitals and counties. Where did the county get it? Just to extract people. Then, he hit the nail on the head and pointed out that this kind of behavior, that is, sideline, does not favor businessmen, reduces morality and the private interests of the city, corrupts public morality, and is the most harmful because of vertical disturbance. Later, he quoted Taizong Li Shimin as saying that water can carry a boat and also overturn it, and urged Dezong to control his personal desires. He wants to take the desire of the world as his own desire and the people's heart as his heart. During the rule of Dezong, traitors have changed many times, but they are basically those who rape the country and harm the people. Among them, Qilu, Dou Shen and Pei Yanling are the most typical. Lu Zi, whose grandfather Lu Huaishen was the prime minister of Xuanzong in the early years of Kaiyuan, was a generation of honest officials. His father, Lu Yi, is also honest and thrifty, leaving a good reputation. Qilu, on the other hand, is the opposite of his predecessor: greedy for power and money, jealous of talent and talent, and ruthless. He killed some loyal and talented people, such as Zhang Yi, Yan Zhenqing and Yang Yan. He also used cruel officials such as Zhao Zan to plunder people's wealth by means of forced borrowing and taxation. I don't-I don't know how many people have been killed. To this end, the history books say that all the sages in the world are enemies. Lu Zhi is not afraid of retaliation from Qilu and other countries. He has repeatedly exposed and reported all kinds of crimes to Dezong, and sometimes had a face-to-face struggle with Qilu. With the concerted efforts of General Li Huaiguang and others, Qi Xin finally ousted Qilu. Whose birthday is the great-grandson of Dou Shen in history?

He claimed that these were surplus wealth, so he could ask the emperor to store them for royal use. When Dezong accepted it gladly, Pei Yanling quickly sent people to search Wan Licheng, pressed sacrifices, hunted down craftsmen, and made achievements by coercion and inducement, which made the whole capital panic and complained. Pei Yanling also took the opportunity to take away a large amount of property in Du Zhi and took the money from the US Treasury for himself. Under his influence, the local government in charge of him did not pay bribes, but the candidates were exempt from bribery, the goods were on the road, and the laws and regulations were so bad that they were corrupt. However, as the emperor's favorite, the civil and military officials of the Qing Dynasty dared to be angry and dare not speak. Lu Zhi stood up again at this critical moment. He also wrote an article specially for the collection of Lu's proven prescriptions, and prepared to dedicate it to him. Including Pei Yanling, there are seven times, which is unprecedented in the Kuang dynasty. When Lu Zhi's relatives and friends found out about his behavior, they all advised him not to take it too seriously. However, he said, I can, I can't live up to the emperor, I can't, I can't live up to what I have learned, I don't, I don't care about anything else. So, resolutely on the hydrophobic. As a result, the bad king not only refused to listen, but listened to Pei Yanling's slanderers and demoted Lu Zhi as a prince. Then, he was demoted several times and demoted to a remote area in Zhongzhou. In Zhongzhou, Lu Zhi worked behind closed doors almost every day and devoted himself to studying medical skills at home, writing 50 articles from 0755 to 79000. After the death of Dezong, Shunzong Song Li acceded to the throne. A few months later, Song Li wrote a letter to Lu Zhi and returned to Beijing. But before the imperial edict reached Zhongzhou, Lu Zhi died of illness. Shunzong was infinitely sad, so he dedicated it to the Minister of War and announced posthumous title. From then on, later generations called it Lu. Regarding Lu Zhi's evaluation, Quan Deyu was a politician in the Tang Dynasty. Later, he thought that his Tao was as famous as Yi and Lun, and his writings were also related to Jing, and his achievements were not inferior to those of Zheng, Yao and Lu. Su Dongpo in Song Dynasty believed that his ancestral home was Wang Zuo, and he learned to be an imperial envoy, sensible, honest, smart as an ovary and eloquent as Jia Yi. In the Qing Dynasty, Lu Zhi's status was further improved, and it was listed as one of the Confucius temples offering sacrifices to fools.
