Taizong remonstrated and said that we (Righteous Masters) raised the army for the sake of the world, and we should directly enter Xianyang and give orders to the world. If we go back and defend a city now, what is the difference between us and bandits? ! Emperor Gaozu did not follow his advice, and Emperor Taizong cried bitterly at the military gate. Gaozu was alarmed and summoned Taizong to inquire. Taizong replied: "If we retreat, our army will be shattered and the soldiers will flee, and the enemy will pursue us. Our lives will be in danger, so I am sad and crying." Gaozu came to his senses and said : "You were the one who advocated the uprising in the first place, and now the success or failure is determined by you."

At that time, the Zuo Army had already returned first, and Taizong and Longxi Gongcheng respectively went to catch up. In the middle of the night, Taizong got lost and strayed into the valley, so he abandoned his mount and caught up with Zuo Jun on foot, and returned with the army. Emperor Gaozu then led his army forward and arrived at Huoyi.

"The Emperor Gaozu hosted a banquet"

Original text:

In the fourth year of Wude, after Wang Shichong was in peace, he went to Taiwan Pushe Su Shichang surrendered to Hannan. Emperor Gaozu ordered his descendants to obey. The chief minister said: "Since ancient times, emperors have been ordered to chase deer. If one person catches it, ten thousand people will hold their hands. After hunting the deer, how can anyone who is angry with the hunter ask about the crime of fighting for the meat?" Gaozu had an old relationship with him. Then he laughed and let it go.

Later, he went hunting in Gaoling. He made a big catch that day and kept the birds in Jingmen. Emperor Gaozu Gu asked his ministers, "How are you enjoying today's hunting?" Shichang said to him, "Your Majesty has wasted all his opportunities and devoted himself to hunting. He has not been very happy for less than ten days." Emperor Gaozu's expression changed, and he smiled and said: "Crazy "What's wrong?" He said to him, "If you are a minister for your own purposes, you are crazy, but for your Majesty's country, you are loyal."

After a feast at the Pixiang Palace, he was drunk and said: "This is the palace of Sui Yang." What did the emperor do? "Why do you think so?" Gaozu said, "Your admonishment seems to be straightforward, but your heart is deceitful. Don't you know that this palace was built by me, so why should you suspect that it is Emperor Yang?" I really don’t know. But the glazed tiles in Qinggong and Lutai were not built by the emperor. If they were built by your majesty, they would not be suitable. , At this time, it is enough. Now because of the extravagance of the Sui Dynasty, people are dying, and they have to return to the right way. Your Majesty has obtained it. It is actually to punish their extravagance and lewdness, and not forgetting to be thrifty. Now in the Sui palace, there are more carvings. In the fourth year of Wude's reign, after Emperor Gaozu pacified Wang Shichong, his servant Su Shichang brought Hannan to surrender. Reproaching him for his late submission, Su Shichang kowtowed and said: "Since ancient times, when emperors ascended the throne, they used the metaphor of catching a deer. If one person gets it, others will stop. How can anyone, after capturing a deer, still resent the other hunters and hold them accountable for competing for the deer? "Gaozu had old friends with him, so he smiled and released him.

Later, Su Shichang and Gaozu hunted in Gaoling. The harvest was rich that day, and (Gaozu ordered) the captured animals were displayed at Jingmen.

Emperor Gaozu looked around at the ministers and asked, "Are you happy hunting today?" Su Shichang replied, "Your Majesty stopped hunting and stopped government affairs. It was just about a hundred prey, nothing to be happy about!" The emperor was so surprised that his face changed. Then he said with a smile: "Are you crazy?" Su Shichang replied: "If you think about it from my perspective, you are crazy, but if you think about it from your perspective, you are loyal!"

< p> Su Shichang once served the emperor for a meal in Pixiang Hall. When he was happy after drinking wine, he said: "This palace was built by Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, right? Why are the decorations and sculptures so similar?" Gaozu replied: "You are good at it. Jin Jian is a straightforward person, but actually he is cunning at heart. Don’t you know that I built this palace, so why do you (pretending not to know) suspect that it was built by Emperor Sui Yang?” Su Shichang replied: “I really don’t know. , I just saw that the towering deer platform of Pixiang Hall is made of glazed tiles. This is not what a king who advocates frugality should do. If it was really built by you, it really shouldn't be! I used to be in martial arts, and I was lucky! As your attendant, I saw that your residence could only be used to protect you from the wind and frost. At that time, you thought that such a residence was enough. , In fact, it is a punishment for his extravagance, and you should not forget to be frugal. Now he is decorating his palace. How can he get rid of the tyranny of the Sui Dynasty? ”

Gaozu said to the elders and brothers in Peixian County: "The innocent son who travels far away misses his hometown. Although I have established a capital in Guanzhong, my soul will still like and miss my hometown after my death.

And I started as the Duke of Pei to fight against the rebels, and finally conquered the world. I took Pei County as my personal territory, exempting the people of Pei County from taxes and corvee, and they did not have to pay taxes and serve for generations. "The fathers and brothers of Pei County and others. The aunt, aunt, relatives and friends of the same clan drank and feasted happily every day, talking about the past and making fun of them.

More than ten days later, Gaozu was about to leave, and the elders of Pei County firmly insisted on keeping Gaozu. Gaozu said: "I have too many followers, and my father and brothers cannot provide what is needed."

So he left Peixian. On this day, Peixian County was completely empty, and the people all rushed to the west of the city to present gifts.

Gaozu stopped again, set up a tent, and drank heavily for three days. The father and brother of Peixian County all kowtowed and said: "Pei County is fortunate to be exempted from taxes and corvee, but Fengyi is not exempted. I hope your majesty will have mercy on them."

Gaozu said: "Fengyi is the place where I grew up, and I should never forget it. , I only did this because the people of Fengyi followed Yongchi and rebelled against me and helped the king of Wei." The fathers and brothers of Peixian County firmly requested, and Gaozu agreed to exempt Fengyi from taxes and corvee just like Peixian County. 5.

When they saw the strange phenomenon of a dragon appearing, at the end of the year, the two families broke off the accounting slips and stopped asking Gaozu for debts. Emperor Gaozu once went to Xianyang to do corvee work. Once Qin Shihuang went on a tour and allowed people to watch as he pleased. When he saw Qin Shihuang, he sighed and said, "Oh, this is what a real man should be like!" Shanfu (shàn fǔ, Shanfu) was a man named Lu Gong. He was on good terms with the magistrate of Peixian County. In order to avoid his enemies, he went to the magistrate's place as a guest, so he settled in Peixian County. When the heroes and officials in Peizhong heard that the county magistrate had a distinguished guest, they all went to congratulate him.

Xiao He was an official of the county magistrate at that time and was in charge of receiving gifts. He said to the guests who gave gifts: "If the gift is not worth a thousand gold, let him sit down in the hall." When Gaozu was the chief of the pavilion, he always looked down on these officials, so he He falsely stated on his name card that "congratulations are worth 10,000 yuan", but in fact he didn't bring any money with him. After the name card was handed in, Lu Gong was greatly surprised to see Gao Zu. He quickly got up and went to the door to greet him. Lu Gong liked to meet people. When he saw Gaozu's appearance, he respected him very much and led him to sit down in the hall. Xiao He said: "Liu Ji always talks big words and rarely achieves anything." Gaozu took the opportunity to tease the guests and simply sat down on the table, showing no humility at all. After drinking the wine to his fullest, Lu Gong winked at Gaozu and told him to stay.

I hope you will cherish it. I have a biological daughter. , I am willing to promise you to be your wife and concubine."

Empress Lu told Gaozu exactly how the old man passed by and showed them their fortunes, saying that both mother and son were wealthy. Emperor Gaozu asked where this man was, and Queen Lu said: "You can't go far yet." So Emperor Gaozu went to catch up with the old man and asked him what happened just now. The old man said: "Just now, I saw that your lady and your children look very much like you. , Your appearance is beyond words." Gaozu then thanked him and said, "If it is true as the old man said, I will never forget your kindness." When Gaozu became a noble man, he still didn't know where the old man was. When Emperor Gaozu was the head of the pavilion, he liked to wear hats made of bamboo skin. He asked the officers in charge of catching thieves to go to Xuedi to make hats.

Peigong of Pengyue led his troops to the west and met Pengyue in Changyi. So he joined him to attack the Qin army, but the battle was unfavorable.

Withdrawing his troops to Li County, he happened to encounter Marquis Gangwu, so he captured his army, about 4,000 people, and incorporated it into his own army. He also joined forces with the troops of Wei General Huang Xin and Wei Shentu Wu Pu to attack Changyi, but failed to capture it.

Peigong continued to march westward and passed Gaoyang. Li Shiqi (yì jī, Yiji) was responsible for guarding the city gate. He said: "There are many people passing by here from all walks of life. I think only Pei Gong is a noble, honest and honest man."

So before going Go to seek an audience and lobby Pei Gong. At that time, Pei Gong was sitting on the bed with his legs spread apart and asked two women to wash his feet.

Li Shiqi saw this and did not bow. He just leaned slightly and made a long salute and said: "If you must punish the tyrannical Qin Dynasty without virtue, you should not sit down to receive the elders. "So Pei Gong stood up, straightened his clothes, apologized to him, and invited him to sit down.

Li Shiqi persuaded Pei Gong to attack Chenliu and obtained the grain stored by the Qin army. The Duke of Pei conferred the title of King of Guangye on Li Shiqi and appointed his younger brother Li Shang as the general.

Qin Prince Ying drove a white chariot and a white horse, tied a silk rope around his neck, sealed the emperor's imperial seal and talisman, and surrendered beside the Zhi Road.

Some generals said that King Qin should be killed. Pei Gong said: "When King Huai sent me to attack the key point, he thought I could be lenient and tolerant. Besides, it would be unlucky to kill someone after they have already surrendered."

So he handed King Qin to the supervisor. The officials then headed west into Xianyang. Pei Gong wanted to stay in the Qin Palace to rest, but Fan Kuai and Zhang Liang dissuaded him. Then he ordered the valuables and treasures in the Qin Palace and the treasury to be sealed, and then he returned and stationed himself at Bashang.

Peigong summoned the elders and talented and famous people from various counties and said to them: "The elders have been suffering from the cruel laws of the Qin Dynasty for a long time. Those who criticize the gains and losses of the government will be exterminated and gather together to talk. I have agreed with the princes that whoever enters Guanzhong first will be the king here, so I should be the king of Guanzhong.

p>

He often drank wine on credit from Wang Lao and Wu Fu. When he was drunk and lying down, Wu Fu and Wang Lao saw dragons often coiling around his body. They drank freely in the shop and sold several times more wine than usual.

After seeing that strange thing, at the end of the year, the two families always broke up and gave up the wine accounts owed by Gaozu. While he was doing corvées in Xianyang, Qin Shihuang went on a tour and allowed the people to watch as they pleased. After watching this, Emperor Gaozu sighed with emotion: "Ah, this is what a man should be like!" " Shan's father, Lu Gong, was a close friend of the magistrate of Peixian County. To avoid his enemies, he went to live in the magistrate's house of Peixian County, and later settled in Peixian County.

A hero from Peizhong heard that there was a distinguished guest at the magistrate's house. Everyone came to congratulate me. Xiao He, the county official, was in charge of collecting congratulatory gifts and said to all the guests: "If the gift is less than one thousand yuan, please sit down in the hall. "

Gaozu was the pavilion chief and always looked down upon these officials, so he tricked him into writing "a gift of 10,000 yuan" on the gift card. In fact, he didn't get any money. When the gift card was sent in, Lu Gong was shocked. , stood up and went to the door to greet him.

Lu Gong was good at meeting people. When he saw Gaozu's appearance, he respected him and invited him to come and sit in the hall. Xiao He said, "Liu Ji has always been a big talker." , rarely get things done. "

Gaozu took advantage of the situation to bully and tease the guests, so he sat on the table and showed no humility. When the banquet was about to end, Duke Lu looked at Gaozu forcefully.

After the banquet ended, Gaozu left Behind. Lu Gong said: "When I was young, I liked to meet people. I met many people, but there was no one with your appearance. I hope you will take good care of yourself."

I have a biological daughter who is willing to be your wife. After the banquet was over, Lady Lu angrily said to Duke Lu, "You always wanted this daughter to be different and marry a noble man."

The magistrate of Pei County is on good terms with you and wants to marry her, but you don’t want to marry her. Why did you arbitrarily promise your daughter to Liu Ji today? Lu Gong said: "This is not something you women can understand." "Finally, he married his daughter to Liu Ji.

Lu Gong's daughter was Empress Lu, who gave birth to Emperor Xiaohui and Princess Lu Yuan. When Gaozu was the head of the pavilion, he once took leave to go home and farm.

Queen Lu and her two children were weeding in the fields. An old man passed by and asked for water, so Queen Lu gave him something to eat. The old man met Queen Lu and said, "My wife is a noble person in the world. "

Empress Lu asked him to meet the two children. He looked at Emperor Xiaohui and said, "The reason why your wife is so famous is because of this child. "Looking at Lu Yuan again, he is also a noble prime minister.

After the old man left, Gaozu happened to come over from the next room. Empress Lu told Pei Gong what happened to someone passing by just now, saying that the man wanted to meet our mother and son. , saying that we are all high-ranking officials. When Emperor Gaozu asked where the old man had gone, Empress Lu said: "He hasn't gone far yet. "

So Gaozu chased after him and asked the old man. The old man said: "The wife and children just now are like you.

Your appearance is priceless. Emperor Gaozu then thanked him and said, "It's as you said. I will never forget your kindness." ”

When Gaozu became a noble man, he didn’t know where the old man was. When Gaozu was the director of the pavilion, he used bamboo skin to make hats and ordered the captured thieves to go to Xuedi to customize them. The so-called "Liu Shiguan" is this kind of hat.

As the chief of the pavilion, Emperor Gaozu escorted the slaves to Mount Li for the county, but many of them escaped on the road. Emperor Gaozu probably ran away when he arrived at Mount Li. When he arrived at the lake area of ??Fengxi, he stopped for a drink, then untied the ropes and let the escorting prisoners go.

Gaozu said, "You all should run away." , I want to run away from here too! "Among the servants, there were more than a dozen who were full of blood and were willing to follow him. Drunk, Gaozu marched through the mountains and rivers all night, and ordered a person to open the way in front.

The person who opened the way came back and reported: “There’s a big snake blocking the road ahead, so we’d better go back.

Gaozu was already drunk and said, "What should a strong man be afraid of when he walks!" "So he stepped forward, drew his sword and killed the big snake. The snake was divided into two parts, and the road was opened.

After walking for a few miles, he fell drunk on the ground. The people behind came to the place where the snake was killed, and there was an old man. The woman was crying in the dark night.

People asked her why she was crying. The old woman said: "Someone killed my son, so I cried." Someone asked: "Why was your son killed?" The old woman said: "My son is the son of the White Emperor. He turned into a snake and blocked the road. Now he is killed by the son of the Red Emperor, so I cry." "
