Wei Zhi, also known as Xuancheng, grew up without parents, but fortunately, he has a high reading talent, which cannot be forgotten. The lazy Ye Yun Crane once left home and became a Taoist priest. He was a politician, thinker, historian and writer in the Tang Dynasty. He assisted Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong, and advocated "Zhenguan ruling the country".
During Tang Gaozu's reign, Shimei was defeated, and Wei Zhi followed him to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, but he was not promoted. Wei Zhi was captured in a war. After the defeat, Wei Zhi returned to Chang 'an. This time, he ushered in the opportunity of life and was highly valued by Prince Li. He was worried when he found that the gap between and was getting bigger and bigger. He repeatedly advised the prince to strike first, but it was useless.
Politically, Wei Zhi also stands out, saying that "it is shameful to listen to both sides". He urged Li Shimin to implement policies beneficial to the people, such as rest and education. He also put forward the concept of "a clear punishment and a clear conscience", that is, the world cannot achieve peace by severe punishment and severe law.
Before the Xuanwumen Rebellion, Wei Zhi wholeheartedly helped the Prince and warned him to beware of Li Shimin. After the Xuanwumen Uprising, Emperor Taizong Li Shimin asked Wei Zhi why he wanted to split them. In fact, he hoped that Wei Zhi would admit his mistake and pray for forgiveness. But Wei Zhi was determined to die rather than surrender. At this time, Li Shimin discovered Wei Zhi's integrity and loyalty. He thinks Wei Zhi is a talented person, so he uses him again. Wei Zhi thanked Li Shimin for not killing him, and began to help Li Shimin wholeheartedly, and dared to speak out.
After the Xuanwu Gate was changed, Li Shimin, king of Qin, promoted Wei Zhi. Wei Zhi finally felt satisfied with democracy, so he was more focused on helping Li Shimin.
In the second year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong wanted to marry a beautiful woman as a concubine. When Kevin·Z heard that this woman was married, he risked his life to persuade him. Emperor Taizong resolutely withdrew the summons. Wei Zhi is a hero!
It is not difficult to see Wei's way of doing things from his repeated warnings of risking his life to acquire land. His integrity and fearless spirit, we can see his generosity and fearless for the well-being of the world.
