Fang Mou Du Duan: In the old Tang Dynasty, Fang Du Ruhui's Biography said that when Fang studied state affairs, Fang could always put forward incisive opinions and specific methods, but he often couldn't make a decision. At this time, Emperor Taizong had to invite Du Ruhui. Du Ruhui came, analyzed the problem a little, and immediately affirmed Fang Lingxuan's opinions and methods. Fang and Du are such two people, one is good at planning and the other is good at making decisions, so they are called "Fang Mou Du Duan" to describe their respective specialties and characteristics.
Model of a generation: Li Jing feels that he has served as an official in the imperial court for many years, and has made great contributions and won many awards. He should retire quickly and go to back in the game as soon as possible, so as to avoid endless troubles. So when Emperor Taizong sent him to visit the folk customs, he said that there was something wrong with his feet and asked him to retire and go home.
Seeing that he was very serious, Emperor Taizong agreed to his request and sent Mou Censhao, assistant minister of calligraphy, to take a message on his behalf, saying, "I think there are very few people who are rich and content since ancient times, and it is impossible for either a fool or a wise man to know. Some people have no talent, but they just want to occupy official positions; Just sick. Still reluctantly refused to resign, and Li Jing can understand the general situation, which is really commendable. I approve your request now, not only to fulfill your ambition, but also to regard you as a model of an era. "
