At the beginning, he was appointed as an imperial minister in Cheng Dali. He has served as the secretariat of Ningzhou and Yuzhou, and the assistant minister of local officials. The emperor is an official, as Lao Tzu said, "saints are fickle and take the people's hearts as their hearts." In order to save the innocent, he dared to disobey the wishes of the monarch and always maintained the true nature of being close to the people and not afraid of power. He always lived above the temple, worried about the country and the people, and was called "the mainstay of the Tang Dynasty" by later generations. During Wu Zetian's reign, he held the highest judicial position in the country, tried long-standing cases and doubtful cases, and corrected unjust, false and wrong cases; He served as Cheng Dali in charge of criminal law. In the previous year, a large number of backlog cases were sentenced, involving 6.5438+0.7 million people, and none of them were rehabilitated on appeal. His justice is evident. He is an honest and diligent official in Chinese history.
For a long time, in the first year (700), Di Renjie died and mourned in the government and the public. Wu Zetian heard the news and cried: "The court is empty!" Give Wenchang Youcheng and praise Wenhui; Tang Zhongzong succeeded to the throne and posthumously presented Sikong; After Tang Ruizong acceded to the throne, he was named Liang Guogong. Di Renjie's life can be said to be the ups and downs of his official career. As an outstanding politician of the feudal ruling class, Di Renjie has made outstanding achievements in all posts.
After he became prime minister, he helped the country to prosper and rectified the shortcomings of Wu Zetian. He is one of the important heroes who promoted the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. Di Renjie was born into an official family.
Grandfather Di, Ren Zhenguan Chao Shangshu Zuo Cheng, father Di Zhixun, Ren Kuizhou secretariat. De Renjie passed the Ming Classics Examination and became a Bianzhou judge; Yan, Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, was the envoy of Henan Road. Di was falsely accused by officials and Yan was tried. He not only found out the truth of the matter, but also found that Di was a rare figure with both ability and political integrity, known as the "Pearl of Hequ, the legacy of Southeast China", and recommended Di as the governor of Bingzhou.
During the Yifeng period in Tang Gaozong (676-679), Di Renjie was promoted to Cheng Dali. He is honest and clean, and he is conscientious in enforcing the law. In one year, he sentenced a large number of backlog cases involving 17000 people. Without any grievance, he became famous for a while and became a respected judge in the ruling and opposition parties. In order to maintain the feudal legal system, Di Renjie even dared to speak out.
In the first year of Yifeng (676), Wuwei was a general with both military power and talent. Because of Zhao Lingbai's fault and Ren Jie's crime, he was dismissed. Gao Zong ordered him to be punished, and Ren Jie played the crime of abnormal death.
The emperor said, "I am unfilial because I am a good talent, so I must kill him." Ren Jie read the order and said, "I always think it is difficult to disobey Long Lin and care about others, but I am stupid."
Jay and Zhou are difficult to live in, but Yao and Shun are easy to live in. I was lucky enough to meet Yao Shun today, and I was not afraid of being punished for fighting.
Yesterday, in China, a thief stopped the crime of abandoning the city from the imperial edict of Yuhuan and Zhang Shizhi, the high temple. Wei Wen can move his man, and Xin Pi can lead him to remonstrate.
And the wise Lord can accept it, but the loyal minister can't be afraid. Your Majesty refused to accept my words today, but after he closed his eyes, he was ashamed to let go, and Xin Pi went underground.
Your majesty's practice, hanging like Wei, is a capital crime, with equal difference. Do you commit a non-capital crime, that is, give the death penalty? Since the law is impermanent, what about Wan's surname? Your majesty is determined to reform, please start today.
The ancients said,' why did your majesty add to the land of Changling?' Your Majesty killed a general with cypress in Zhaoling today. After a thousand years, why is your majesty the master? The minister was so afraid to kill good talents that he put your majesty to death. "Emperor slightly solution, good from death.
Soon, Di Renjie was appointed as a consultant by Tang Gaozong, responsible for hearing cases and correcting officials. During his tenure, Di Renjie abided by his duties and impeached some important forces who were flattering and condescending.
In the first year of Diaolu (679), Wei Hongji, Minister of Agriculture, made the Su Yu, Gaoshan and Shangyang palaces spacious and magnificent. The emperor wrote a letter to impeach Wei Hongji and guide the emperor to pursue luxury, so Wei Hongji was dismissed.
Wang Benli, a doctor of Zuo Si, relied on his kindness and was feared by the court. Di Renjie mercilessly exposed his crimes and demanded that they be brought to justice.
Want to tolerate and shield the king, and the emperor tried to protect him with his own body: "Although the country lacks talents, there are several generations!" Your majesty, why pity sinners and lose the king's law? If you want to forgive this foundation, please abandon your minister in no man's land as a warning of future loyalty! " Wang was finally found guilty, and the court was awed.
Later, the emperor officially moved to Langzhong, taking the emperor as the ambassador, and prepared to visit Fenyang Palace, and arranged the stopover accommodation first. Li Chong, the governor of Bingzhou, declared the Jealous Women's Temple and asked tens of thousands of people not to open the Imperial Road.
Di Renjie said, "During the trip to the Emperor, a thousand people rode, Fengbo cleared the dust, and the rain teacher sprinkled the road. Why are you jealous of the harm of women? " , they forget about it, exempt from bing tens of thousands of people's labor. Tang Gaozong listened with admiration: "What a gentleman!" .
In 686, Wu Zetian hung on the arch for two years, and Di became the secretariat of Ningzhou (now Ningxian and Zhengning in Gansu). At that time, Ningzhou was a place where all ethnic groups lived together. Di pays attention to properly handling the relationship between ethnic minorities and the Han nationality, saying that "harmony is the most important thing in summer, harmony inside and outside, and harmony is the most important thing for the people", and all the people in the county praise him.
This year was a year when Guo Han, the Imperial Advisor, visited Longyou and the elder brother of Shijianingzhou made a profit. Guo Han went back to court and put forward his suggestion. Di was promoted to assistant minister of Dongguan (Ministry of Industry) and served as governor of Jiangnan. Emperor invited more than 0/700 temples to be burned, but,,, and Wu Yuan stayed behind, reducing the burden on the people in the south of the Yangtze River.
In 688, the king of Bozhou secretariat opposed Wu Zetian's ruling, and Li Zhen of Yuzhou secretariat responded. After Wu Zetian put down the imperial clan rebellion, he appointed Di as the secretariat of Yuzhou. At that time, there were 600 to 700 people in the prison, and as many as 5,000 people were undocumented.
Di knew very well that most of Li's people were forced to serve in the army of the King of Yue. Therefore, Wu Zetian said: "This generation is dishonest, and I hope to mourn its mistakes." Wu Zetian listened to his advice, pardoned these death row prisoners, changed the killing to the flow, calmed the people and stabilized the situation in Yuzhou.
At that time, it was Prime Minister Zhang Guangbi who put down Li Zhen, the king of Yue. Soldiers depend on their merits to extort money. Di Renjie didn't promise, but angrily denounced Zhang Guangbi's killing and death, in order to take credit.
He said, "Whoever confuses Henan will surpass Wang Zhen. Today, I died and Wan Zhen was born. "
"Gong Ming.
2. The classical Chinese translation of Di Di and Di Di are both soldiers and politicians, and their mothers are old and sick, so they should be out of the field.
Ren Jie said, "My wife is ill and not at home. How could she worry about getting close to Wan Li? " This is Lin's Yi Chang Shi. Please pay tribute to the quality line for him.
Shi was at odds with Sima because he said, "We are innocent." Treat each other like before.
Translate Renjie's Facao (official name) into a state (place name). There is a colleague Zheng Chongzhi.
Zheng Chongzhi's mother is very old and ill. Zheng Chongzhi was sent as a special envoy to a very remote frontier.
Di Renjie said, "Your mother is ill, but you have to go far away on business. Doesn't this make your mother miss your sorrow? " So I went to Chang Shi (official name) Lin and told him that I wanted to go to the frontier on business instead of Zheng Chongzhi. At that time, Lin and Sima (official name) were at odds and said to each other, "Doesn't (Di's noble personality) make us feel ashamed?" So, they made up.
(Press: The story behind is that Lin He was moved by Sandy's noble personality, so he reflected on himself and thought that the harmonious relationship between colleagues should not be destroyed.
3. The translated name of Di Classical Chinese is the official name of Bingzhou (place name).

4. Di's annotation and translation of classical Chinese Di is a legal school in Bingzhou. She is in the same dynasty as Zheng Chong, a legal school. Her mother is old and sick, so she should go out of the field. Ren Jie said, "My wife is ill and not at home. How could she worry about getting close to Wan Li? " This is Lin's Yi Chang Shi. Please pay tribute to the quality line for him. Shi was at odds with Sima because he said, "We are innocent." Treat each other like before. (Kong Xulun)
Di, a fat man in the army, has the qualities of Zheng Chong, a fat man in the same house. His mother is old and sick, and she is going to a remote area. Di Renjie said, "My mother is ill and she is away on business. How can I leave Wan Li's worries to my relatives?" So I went to Changshilin and asked for a high-quality job. At that time, Pei Renji and Sima Li Xiaolian were at odds and said to him, "Aren't we ashamed?" Treat each other like before. (Kong Xulun)
5. Di Renjie recommended sages to translate classical Chinese. In the autumn of the first year of the holy calendar (AD 698), Wu Zetian ordered the prime ministers to recommend a businessman to select talents.
Prime ministers from all walks of life took action and actively recommended talents. To everyone's surprise, Emperor Renjie recommended his son Si Fucheng Di Guangsi, and was promoted to a local official by Her Majesty the Queen. Di Guangsi did a very good job and was very competent. She was so happy that Wu Zetian said to the emperor, "Pray for your second time!"
Qi was a lieutenant of Jin in the Spring and Autumn Period, and asked to retire because of his age. Duke Jin, the monarch of the State of Jin, asked him, "Who can take your place after you retire?" Qi Xi said without hesitation: "Xie Hu can take over the post of minister." In fact, Xie Hu is his enemy. For the benefit of the country, Qi abandons personal grudges and recommends competent talents fairly. It's a pity that although the monarch agreed to Xie Hu recommended by Qi, he just wanted him to take office, but he died unfortunately. Jin Wengong asked Qi Xi again: "Who else can replace you?" Qi Xi answered, "Meridian is also ok." Woods is the son of Qixi. As a result, Qi's son was appointed as his lieutenant.
This is a famous story in history, which is "keeping relatives inside and keeping enemies outside".
Wu Zetian compared Di Renjie to Qi Xi, which was his highest reward.
Wu Zetian asked Emperor Renjie again: "What about Lord Loude?"
Lou Deyi has been in Helong for 40 years. He is diligent, meticulous, hard-working and well-managed. Han people and ethnic minorities admire and admire him. He is honest and tolerant, and everyone likes him very much. Di Renjie's appointment as Prime Minister was recommended by Lou Deyi, but Di Renjie knew nothing about it. He doesn't even want him to be a Beijing official, because he values Lou Deyi.
Wu Zetian knew all this clearly, so he took this opportunity to make it clear to the emperor. Di Renjie didn't feel anything special about Her Majesty's question and casually replied, "Mr. Lu thinks he will be able to guard the border. As for himself, I really don't know. "
Wu Zetian asked again: "Is Teacher Lou good at knowing people?"
De Renjie replied: "I am an official with him at the same time. I didn't know he could know people."
Wu Zetian said with a smile: "I can know your name, which was recommended by Teacher Lou. Isn't that a person? "
Wu Zetian's words surprised Di Renjie. He never dreamed that he could be a prime minister, which was recommended by the teacher's morality, which he despised.
Di Renjie walked out of the palace in shame and sighed as he walked, thinking, "Duke Lu's morality is profound and profound, just like the sea. I am just a drop of water contained in the sea, and I can't see his margin! "
Until his death, Di Renjie didn't have a chance to repay Lourdes or even say a word of gratitude.
In fact, Mr Lou didn't ask Di Renjie to repay him at all. He just recommended talents for the country.
6. Generous Di Renjie's classical Chinese translation of the original:
Emperor word, Bing Taiyuan people also.
Ren Jie, Yi Fengzhong is Cheng Dali, who was imprisoned for 17,000 people at the age of one, without complaint. At that time, general Wu Wei had a good military power, and Ren Jie was dismissed for playing crimes. Gao Zong ordered him to be punished, and Ren Jie played the crime of abnormal death. The emperor said, "I am unfilial because I am a good talent, so I must kill him." Ren Jie read the order and said, "I always think it is difficult to disobey Long Lin and care about others, but I am stupid." Jay and Zhou are difficult to live in, but Yao and Shun are easy to live in. I was lucky enough to meet Yao Shun today, and I was not afraid of being punished for fighting. Yesterday, in China, a thief stopped the crime of abandoning the city from the imperial edict of Yuhuan and Zhang Shizhi, the high temple. Wei Wen can move his man, and Xin Pi can lead him to remonstrate. And the wise Lord can accept it, but the loyal minister can't be afraid. Your Majesty refused to accept my words today, but after he closed his eyes, he was ashamed to let go, and Xin Pi went underground. Your majesty's practice, hanging like Wei, is a capital crime, with equal difference. Do you commit a non-capital crime, that is, give the death penalty? Since the law is impermanent, what about Wan's surname? Your majesty is determined to reform, please start today. The ancients said,' why did your majesty add to the land of Changling?' Your Majesty killed a general with cypress in Zhaoling today. After a thousand years, why is your majesty the master? The minister was so afraid to kill good talents that he put your majesty to death. "Emperor slightly solution, good from death. In a few days, I will grant Ren Jie the suggestion.
Translation:
De Renjie and Feng Yi (year number, 676 1 1 month-June 679) were appointed as Cheng Dali (official name, ranking from the sixth grade), involving 17000 people. There is no injustice. At that time, General Wu Wei had a good military power and committed the crime of cutting down cypress trees in Zhaoling by mistake. De Renjie was dismissed (free from death) when he went to play the invitation. The emperor ordered immediate execution. Tell him not to talk. Di Renjie: "I heard that rebelling against Long Lin and disobeying the king has been a difficult thing since ancient times. I don't think so. This kind of thing is terrible for a bad king and tyrant like Jie and Zhou, but it doesn't matter much when it comes to a wise king like Yao and Shun. I don't have to worry about losing like a fight. In the previous Han Dynasty, Zhang Shizhi reported the crime of stealing costumes and utensils from ancestral temples to the emperor and sentenced him to death. Arguing with the emperor, the emperor finally adopted his opinion. This shows that a wise monarch can argue, but a loyal minister cannot be afraid. The emperor didn't listen to my advice today, and he will regret it later. There are many ways to deal with this situation. Death is a crime, and there are equal differences. Why do you have to use the death penalty? Even if the laws of the country say so, the people under the rule will be at a loss. The emperor wants to amend the law. Starting today (no investigation has been made before), the ancients said, "Why did your majesty add a piece of land to Changling?" "Now the emperor killed a general because of a cypress tree in Zhaoling. In a thousand years, how will future generations evaluate it? Therefore, I dare not be ordered to kill good talents, thus trapping the emperor. " The emperor was not angry when he heard this. Shancai survived because of this.
7. Classical Chinese translated by Di Renjie:
Di is a county magistrate in Bingzhou, with the quality of Zheng Chong, a county magistrate in the same prefecture. His mother is old and ill, so he should go far away. The emperor said, "Your mother is ill and not at home. How can she leave Wan Li's worries to her relatives?" So he went to the historic forest and asked for a high-quality trip. At that time, Pei and Sima were at odds and said to him, "Aren't we ashamed?" Later, the two lived in harmony.
