Bye bye to each other after work

In the first year of Yuanhe (806), Liu Pi, the deputy envoy of our province, begged for a position in our province and ordered Gao Chongwen, the general, to conquer our province.

Duan Wenchang paid a visit to Li Jifu when he was the secretariat of Zhongzhou, so he was promoted to Dengfeng County Captain and Jixian Captain. Later, he successively remonstrated and filled the vacancy, and served as a foreign minister of the ancestral department. Later, Tang Xianzong wanted to award Duan Wenchang a bachelor's degree in Hanlin, but was stopped by Wei Guanzhong, the prime minister. In the eleventh year of Yuanhe (8 16), Wei Guanzhi kept silent. Duan Wenchang was awarded a bachelor's degree in Hanlin, and was promoted to a doctor of ancestral temple, and was given a scarlet official uniform.

In the 12th year of Yuanhe (8 17), Pei Du, the prime minister, put down the Huaixi rebellion. Han Yufeng, assistant minister of punishments, wrote a letter to Pinghuai Xibei, praising Pei Du's achievements. Li Su ranked first in the rebellion, but it was rarely mentioned in the inscription, so he felt indignant. His wife Webster complained to the emperor that the inscription was untrue.

Leave the buffer

In the first year of Changqing (82 1), I was in Duan Wenchang. Please resign. Then Tang Muzong appointed Duan Wenchang as our ambassador to give up our duties and work with Zhongshu to make peace. Duan Wenchang, which is famous for its people's feelings in Sichuan, is tolerant in politics, but strict in law and discipline, which is deeply feared by barbarians.

In the second year of Changqing (822), Yunnan barbarians invaded central Guizhou. The court received the suggestion of Cui Yuanlve's observation in Guizhou, and was very worried, and ordered Duan Wenchang to take strict precautions. Duan Wenchang sent messengers to negotiate, and the barbarians withdrew. In the fourth year of Changqing (824), Tang Jingzong succeeded to the throne.

Because of this, Jingnan people made a proverb: "Drought is not bitter, pray for rain;" The rain is not worrying, and the public travels. "

Grandfather of family members: Duan Dejiao, posthumously presented to Zhong Shi.

Father: The official to follow the state secretariat, posthumous title left servant.

Wife: Wu's daughter Wu.

Zi: Duan, a former school book lang, Shang book lang and Jiangzhou secretariat, lived in Xiangyang and wrote Youyang Miscellanies.

There are different records about Duan Wenchang's birthplace in the Book of New Tang Dynasty and the Book of Old Tang Dynasty. The Book of Old Tang Dynasty holds that he is from Xihe: "Duan Wenchang, whose name is Mo Qing, is from Xihe". The Book of the New Tang Dynasty holds that "Wenchang, whose name is Mo Qing, is Jingshi, and Jingzhou is the guest of the world". Today, people involved in Duan Wenchang are often mentioned in the Book of the New Tang Dynasty, or directly written as people from Jizhou, Shandong Province.

If a person's place of origin is determined according to his place of birth, the records in Old Tang Book are more in line with history, and Duan Wenchang should be from Xihe. The reason for this is the following：

1. The most famous figure in Xihe County of Fenzhou recorded in Taiping Universe in Song Dynasty is only Duan Wenchang. Tai Ping Guang Ji was written during the years of Taiping and Xingguo in Song Taizong, which was earlier than Xin Tang Shu. The editor lived in the early Song Dynasty, and he listed Duan Wenchang as the only celebrity in Fenzhou, indicating that it was recognized by the ruling and opposition parties at that time.

2. The Book of Old Tang Dynasty clearly recorded the relationship between Duan's family and Jingzhou. The Book of the Old Tang Dynasty not only recorded "Xihe people", but also recorded "Wenchang lived in Jingzhou, which was so charming that it could not be used because of his knowledge" and "Wenchang had ancestors in Jingshu, so he was redeemed as a floating temple. Our ancestors' graves are in Jingzhou, so that we can set up our ancestors' cinemas ",which shows that the Book of the Old Tang Dynasty is relatively clear about the southward migration of the Duan Wenchang family. If Duan lived in Jingzhou and had nothing to do with Xihe, the author of Old Tang Book would never write "Xihe people".

There is a historical basis for Duan Wenchang's birth in Xihe. Duan Wenchang's ancestor Duan began in Taiyuan, so it is reasonable for his descendants to move to Xihe River in Fenzhou, Taiyuan.

Duan's family moved to Jizhou, Shandong Province from the end of Sui Dynasty, and has been in Duan Wenchang for more than 200 years. It is unreasonable to say that their ancestral home is OK in Jizhou, Shandong Province, and that Duan Wenchang is from Jizhou, Shandong Province, so it is absolutely impossible to say that Duan Wenchang is from Jizhou. The New Tang Book, as the expression of "Jingzhou is a guest in the world", does not mean that Duan Wenchang is a native of Jingzhou. Duan lives in Jingzhou, which means that he is not from Jingzhou, or that Duan and his son are not from Jingzhou. Therefore, the statement that Duan Wenchang is from Xihe in Old Tang Shu and Taiping Universe is correct.

Therefore, Duan Wenchang should be a native of Xihe (now Fenyang, Shanxi), whose ancestral home is qi zhou (now Linzi, Shandong), and his father and son lived in Jingzhou in his later years.
