Cen Wenben, Ren Jing, was born in Jiyang County, Dengzhou. Prime Minister and litterateur of Tang Dynasty, grandson of Xiliang secretariat Cen after Cen Peng, the general who recruited the south in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Smart and agile, knowledgeable and knowledgeable. When I was fourteen years old, I pleaded for my father, and my words were fierce, so I became famous. Xiao Xian proclaimed himself emperor in Jingzhou, thinking that Zhongshu was an assistant minister. In the first year of Zhenguan, he was awarded the secretary lang, moved to Zhongshu Sheren, took charge of confidential documents, participated in writing, and was named the founding son of Jiangling County, the official to Zhongshu, and participated in the discussion of state affairs.

According to the analysis of historical data, there are four main criteria for being selected as heroes in Lingyange: first, the contribution of entering the customs to establish a tripod (Jinyang to Li Yuan called the emperor); Second, the contribution to the unification of the world (the contribution in the process of unifying the world in the Tang Dynasty); Third, Xuanwu's contribution to the throne (Li Shimin's contribution in the process of seizing the throne); Fourth, Zhenguan's contribution to governing the country (helping Emperor Taizong to create "Zhenguan's rule").

Among these four criteria, heroes must meet at least two or three before they can be selected as heroes in Lingyange. Therefore, people like Pei Ji, Liu Wenjing, Feng Deyi and Wu Shihuo (the father of Wu Zetian) basically have only "the contribution of entering the customs to establish a tripod", while those who basically have only "the contribution of Guan Zhen to governing the country" have not been selected as the heroes of Lingyange.

In his early years, Cen Wenben worked under Zhang Xutuo, the general who suppressed peasant rebels in Sui Dynasty. Li Yuan fought in Henan when he entered the customs, and there was no "entry contribution". In the nineteenth year of Zhenguan, he joined Liaodong and died on the way, at the age of 51. He was praised as Shi Zhong and Guangzhou Commander-in-Chief, posthumous title was the Constitution, and Zhaoling was buried with him. Therefore, Cen Wenben is not qualified to be selected as the hero of Lingyange, and missed out on the hero of Lingyange.
