1. Classical Chinese translation of Sima Chuzhi Sima Chuzhi, also known as Dexiu, was the eighth grandson of Taichang Sima Kui, the younger brother of Emperor Xuan of Jin Dynasty.

His father, Sima Rongqi, was the governor of Liang and Yizhou of Sima Dezong. He was killed by Yang Chengzu, who joined the army.

Chu Zhi was seventeen years old at the time and sent his father's remains back to Danyang.

At the same time that Liu Yu was killing Sima's relatives, his uncle Xuanqi and his brother Zhenzhi were killed together.

So Chu Zhi hid among the monks and crossed the Yangtze River.

From Liyang go west into the barbaric lands of Yiyang and Jingling.

When his uncle Sima Xiuzhi, the governor of Jingzhou, was defeated by Liu Yu, he fled to the Yingshui area of ??Ru River.

When Chu Zhi was young, he had a heroic spirit and was able to treat scholars with humility.

Together with Sima Shunming, Dao Gong and others, he gathered party members everywhere.

When Liu Yu proclaimed himself emperor, Chu Zhi sought revenge and gathered his party members to occupy Changshe. There were often more than 10,000 people who joined him.

Liu Yu was afraid of him and sent his assassin Mu Qian to kill Chu Zhi.

Chu Zhi treated Mu Qian very kindly.

Mu Qian pretended to be sick at night, knowing that Chu Zhi would definitely come in person, and planned to take the opportunity to kill him.

When Chu Zhi heard that Mu Qian was ill, he went to visit him personally with some soup and medicine.

Mu Qian was grateful for his kindness, so he took out the dagger from under the couch and told him the situation, saying: "The general is scrupulous and afraid of Liu Yu. I hope he will not be rash and put safety first." Chu Zhi sighed and said, "If it's like this

As he said, even if he takes precautions, he may still make mistakes." Mu Qian then dedicated himself to serving him.

Following Shizu Zheng to challenge Liangzhou, he was given a hundred households of slaves for his merits.

Yilong sent generals Pei Fangming and Hu Chongzhi to invade Qiuchi.

He appointed Chu Zhi as a holiday, and together with Duke Huaiyang Pi Baozi and others, led all the armies in Guanzhong to march westward from Sanguan, beat back Fang Ming, and captured Chongzhi.

Qiu Chi was calmed down and then returned.

The emperor crusaded against Wei Wei and ordered Chu Zhi and Jiyin Gong Lu Zhongshan to supervise transportation to support the army.

At that time, Feng Ta, the general of Zhenbei, fled into Xixui and persuaded him to attack Chu and others to cut off grain transportation.

Wei Wei then sent spies into Chu's army, cut off the donkey's ears and left.

There is a report that someone has lost a donkey's ear, but none of the generals can detect it clearly.

Chu Zhi said: "The thieves must have cut it as evidence that the thieves are coming." He immediately ordered the sergeants to cut down the willow trees and build a fence, water them to freeze them, and then the fence was repaired and the thieves arrived.

The ice was thick and the fence was strong, making it impossible to attack by force, so the bandits dispersed.

Shizu heard about it and rewarded him.

He has been on the border for more than 20 years and is famous for his honesty and simplicity.

He died in the fifth year of Heping at the age of seventy-five.

Emperor Gaozong missed him and felt sorry for him, so he was buried with him in Jinling.

2. Translation of Old Tang Book·Biographies 140 Yuan Dexiu Zhe was from Henan, with the courtesy name Zizhi.

In the 21st year of Kaiyuan, he became a Jinshi.

A man of good virtue is lonely and poor, and he serves his mother with filial piety.

In the Kaiyuan period, he studied in the countryside and traveled to the capital every year.

He couldn't bear to be separated from his relatives, so he took pride in his father-in-law every step of the way and stayed with his mother in Chang'an.

After he ascended the throne, his mother died and he stayed in a tomb. He ate unsalted cheese, borrowed sterile mats, tattooed blood on portraits and wrote Buddhist scriptures.

For a long time, the orphans and young people were tied to Lu Shi.

He was transferred to Xingzhou Nanhe Wei.

The ruler was favorable to the government, and he deposed the envoy to the throne, and summoned Longwu Lushi to join the army.

Dexiu lost her parents early, and her husband (the old mourning clothes) became weary one after another, so she married without being able to live with her relatives.

After becoming an orphan, he refused to marry.

The clan rules this by eliminating heirs.

Dexiu said: "My brother has a son, who will inherit the sacrifice of my ancestors." If the brother and son are married, the family is poor and there is no way to treat it as a courtesy, so I ask for the order of Lushan.

First of all, I fell into a carriage and injured my foot. I refused to pay my respects. Your county guard treated me as a guest.

The people in the tribe are thieves, and they are assisted by officials and imprisoned.

There was a ferocious beast on the border of Huixian County, so he stole it from Chen Ri and said: "I am willing to kill the ferocious beast to redeem myself." Dexiu promised.

A junior official said: "It's hard to escape the thief and trickery, and release officials and prisoners without permission. Isn't it tiring?" Dexiu said: "I don't want to break the promise. If I am tired, I will sit down, and I will not be able to invite you." He broke the weapon and went out.

The next day, the fierce beast returned.

Honesty makes people behave like this.

Full rank.

Traveling south to Luhun, I saw beautiful mountains and rivers. Xingran had a long-term ambition to go to Mount Lu.

The age of the year means hunger and lack of food, and the cook does not cook, but plays the piano and reads. He is content and contented.

Those who do good things will drink and eat with them, and they will not choose the virtuous and the unworthy. They will drink with them and leave their body and belongings in a Tao Taoran manner.

In addition to playing the piano and drinking wine, there are occasional poems and chants.

The writing is straightforward and without any engraving.

His works (Ji Zi Ting Yue Lun), "Jian Shi Fu", were called by the masters. He died in the 13th year of Tianbao. At the age of fifty-nine, his disciples gave him the posthumous title of Mr. Wenxing. Scholars and officials were highly praised for their conduct.

Unnamed, it is called Yuan Lushan. Yuan Dexiu was born in Henan and was a Jinshi in the 21st year of Kaiyuan of the Tang Dynasty. Dexiu lost his father when he was young and lived in poverty. He was famous for his filial piety when he served his mother.

He was recommended to study in the capital all year round. He couldn't bear to leave his mother, so he carried his mother on his back every time he went out. After he became a Jinshi, his mother died and he built a house next to his mother's cemetery.

He ate salt, but did not eat cheese, and slept without a mattress. He used blood to draw pictures and write Buddhist scriptures. After a long time, because he was an orphan and a young man, he received a salary as an official (according to the law) and was transferred to Xingzhou Nanhe Wei.

He had good achievements in governing affairs. The imperial envoy reported him to the imperial court and called him to join the army.

After becoming an orphan, he stopped getting married. The people of the Yuan family tried to persuade him. Dexiu said: "My brother has a son who can inherit the incense of his ancestors." Because his nephew married a wife, the family was poor and had nothing to do.

I wanted to use it to hold a wedding, so I asked to be the magistrate of Lushan County.
