Jia Sheng's name is Yi, from Luoyang. When Jia Sheng was eighteen, he was famous in the county for his ability to write poems. Wu Tingwei was then the county magistrate of Henan. When he heard about Jia Yi's talent, he took him to his door and appreciated him very much. Shortly after Emperor Xiaowen ascended the throne, he learned that Wu Jun, the county magistrate of Henan Province, had the best achievements in governing the country and protecting the people. I used to learn from Reese. Because I was a fellow countryman, I was recruited to the court as Tingwei.
Wu Tingwei recommended Jia Yi to the emperor, saying that he was very young and quite familiar with the theories of a hundred schools. So Emperor Wen called Jia Yi to the court and appointed him as a doctor.
At that time, Jia Yi was only in his early twenties and was the youngest courtier. Whenever the emperor ordered his deputy to discuss political affairs, the old gentlemen often answered correctly, but Jia Yi always answered perfectly. Everyone thinks that what Jia Yi said is exactly what he wants to say. So everyone thinks that their talents can't catch up with Jia Yi. Wendi also liked him very much, and within a year, he was promoted from a doctor to a doctor in Taizhong.
Jia Yi believes that from Han Xing to Emperor Wen for more than 20 years, the world has been stable and the ruling and opposition parties are harmonious. Therefore, it is necessary to formulate a new calendar, change the colors advocated, amend laws and regulations, unify official names, and advocate ceremonies and music. He drew up various ceremonies and methods in detail, and suggested advocating yellow, following the five elements, redefining official names and completely changing the written law of the Qin Dynasty. Emperor Wen has just acceded to the throne and is modest and cautious, but he can't take care of these things at the moment. However, it was Jia Yi's idea to amend some laws and regulations and return the princes in Beijing. So the emperor discussed with the minister and planned to transfer Jia Yi to the position of minister or minister. Hou Zhoubo, Ying Yinhou Guan Ying, Zhang Houxiangru of Dongyang, and Feng Jing, an ancient scholar, were all jealous of Jia Yi, so they slandered Jia Yi in front of the emperor and said, "This Luoyang man is young and inexperienced, and he just wants to seize power, and he has screwed up many things." Therefore, the emperor alienated Jia Yi from now on, no longer took his advice, and sent him to be the teacher of Changsha Tea.
Jia Yi has bid farewell to the imperial court and gone to any official position. I heard that Changsha is low-lying and humid, and I thought that my life would not last long, and I was depressed (unhappy) because I was relegated. When crossing the Xiangjiang River, I wrote a poem to pay tribute to Qu Yuan.
After more than a year, Jia Yi was called to the capital to see the emperor. It happened that Wendi Deng was sitting in the publicity room to receive God's blessing. Emperor Wen felt something about ghosts and gods and asked about their origin. Jia Yi explained in detail the formation of ghosts and gods. Until midnight, Wendi Deng unconsciously moved to Jia Yi's seat. After the conversation, Wendi Deng said, "I haven't seen Jia Sheng for a long time. I thought I had surpassed him, but I still look inferior to him today. Time is not long, as Jia Yi became Liang's teacher. Liang Huaiwang is Wendy's favorite youngest son. He likes reading, so Wendy asked Jia Yi to be his teacher.
Emperor Wen named all four sons of Huainan Wang Li as liehou. Jia Yi protested that doing so would lead to disaster. Jia Yi wrote many times, pointing out that the influence of governors was too great, and some fiefs even connected with counties, which did not conform to the ancient system and should be gradually weakened. Wendi Deng didn't listen.
A few years later, while riding a horse, King Huai of Liang fell off his horse and died, leaving no descendants. Jia Yi felt sorry for not being a good teacher. She cried for more than a year and died. Jia Yi was only thirty-three years old when he died.

Jia Sheng is famous for his loyalty and Luoyang people. In eighteen years, he was famous for reciting poems in the county. Wu Tingwei guarded Henan, heard his scholar, and called him to the door. He is lucky to love him. When Emperor Xiaowen was first established, he heard that the Wu Palace was the best in the world, so he studied with Li Si in the same city, so he was recruited as Ting Wei. Ding Wei said that Jia Sheng is young and quite familiar with the books of a hundred schools of thought. Wendi called him a doctor.
Jia Sheng was at least twenty years old at that time. Under every imperial edict, the old gentlemen can't say that Jia Sheng did everything he wanted for everyone, so he thought he couldn't do it. Emperor Xiaowen was very satisfied with this and became a doctor at the age of one. Jia Sheng thought that Han Xing had been filial for more than twenty years, and the world was in harmony. Instead, we should correct the new moon, change colors, establish a legal system, correct officials, and carry forward rites and music. It is known that grass has its own etiquette, its color is still yellow, and it is known that it is more Qin to use five as the official name. At the beginning of Emperor Xiaowen's accession to the throne, he was calm.
Let it go. And ... The laws and regulations are relatively fixed, and the governors' understanding of the country comes from Jia Sheng. So the son of heaven consulted and appointed Jia Sheng as a public office. Jiang, Guan, Hou and Feng Jingzhi in Dongyang are all victims, but Jia Sheng said: "Luoyang people are young and inexperienced, and they only want to be good at power and confuse things." Therefore, after the Emperor of Heaven, nobody cared, and Jia Sheng was chosen as Teacher Wang of Changsha.
Jia Sheng resigned and went to work. I heard that Changsha was simple and humid, and I thought I wouldn't live long, so I left. He is not satisfied. He crossed the Xiangjiang River again in order to give Qu Yuan a hanging. Jia Sheng has been Sand King's teacher for three years. After the New Year, Jia Sheng asked to see him. Emperor xiaowen was allowed to sit in the propaganda room. There is a sense of ghosts and gods in the world, so ask the origin of ghosts and gods. Jia Sheng is like a Taoist priest. At midnight, Wendi Deng came to the front seat. Then he said, "I haven't seen Jia Sheng for a long time. I feel that I have gone too far. I might as well go now." In the Qing Dynasty, Jia Sheng was worshipped as the teacher of King Huai Liang. Emperor Wen's youngest son, King Huai Liang, loves reading and is good, so Jia gave it to him.
Wendi was reinstated to Li, the king of Huainan, and all four were liehou. Jia Sheng remonstrated that the prosperity of suffering would continue from now on. Jia Sheng was careless, saying that governors and even counties were not ancient, but could be slightly cut. Wendi Deng didn't listen.
He lived for several years, rode with the king in his arms, fell off his horse and died without a queen. Jia Sheng self-mutilated and became Wu Mi. He cried for years and then died. Jia Sheng was thirty-three years old when he died. -Historical Records Biographies of Qu Yuan and Jia Sheng
