Lu Zongdao is from Bozhou. Lonely, I bow to my family. All my uncles are martial men. It is easy for me to follow Taoism, and Zong Yidao studies hard. The handwriting on the sleeve is very important. Take Jinshi, set up a governor for Haozhou, and then adjust the sea salt order. The old port in the southeast of the county town has been blocked for a long time to bring seawater to the city. Ding Shuzhi, who lives in Daofa Township, is called "Lu Gongpu".

In the first year of Tianxi, six admonitions were given to two provinces. In the examination, it was said that it was the best in the temple, and the first place was Zongdao and Liu Ye. The admonition chapter starts from the cupboard door and is not given to ①. Zongdao invited people to talk about it face to face, so it is a story. The emperor was tired of listening, because he heard and said a lot. Later, because of his power, he initiated a lawsuit: "Does your majesty use an official to serve in name only?" I am ashamed of the corpse, please go. " Indra has been asking for something for a long time. One day, the wall of the study hall will be "Lu Zhi", which will cover the mind.

Queen Zhang Xian (II) came to the DPRK and asked Zong Daori, "What will the master look like after the Tang and Five Dynasties?" To Japan: "The sinner of the Tang Dynasty is the danger of the country." After the silence. I would like to ask the person who set up the Liuqi Temple (3). The queen mother asked the assistant minister, but everyone was afraid to be right. I can't do it. I said that day, "What if I put up the seven temples of the Liu family?" The Emperor and the Empress Dowager blessed the Hall of Cixiao, hoping to be the first emperor of Daan and observe the Taoist Day: "When a husband dies, his son follows, and a woman learns." Empress Dowager Cixi ordered her to ride after her death. When he was in power, many sons were reading in the pavilion. Zong Daori: "Pavilion nurtures talents in the world, how can a dude be good and evil?" Cao Liyong, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, was arrogant, and the patriarchal clan system was repeatedly destroyed before the emperor. Those who use their own things are afraid of it. The purpose is to "fish head participate in politics." Because of its surname, it is as tough as a fish head. Then he was appointed assistant minister of history, xiang yuan. The sick drama, the emperor asked, gave platinum three thousand two hundred. After his death, Empress Dowager Cixi gave it to the Minister of War.

Zongdao is upright, can tolerate illness, and dares to speak out when things happen, not for small worries. For virtue, I live near a restaurant, and I will drink it in the restaurant after tasting it. I really sent it, the messenger door chief, from the restaurant. The messenger went in first and made an appointment: "That is, I blame the public for coming late. Why is it right? " Zong Dao said, "Tell the truth first." Messenger Day: "However, you should be offended." Day: "drinking is human nature;" Deceive the monarch. It is also a big sin for courtiers. " When asked in time by the true family, the messenger told the truth. On the day of the emperor's praise, Zong said, "There is an old friend in the village, and his family is poor without cups and plates. Therefore, I will drink in the restaurant. " The emperor thought loyalty and righteousness could be of great use to taste the queen mother. When the Queen Mother came to Korea, she made good use of it.

{Note} ① No right: you can't talk to the emperor face to face. ② Empress: Liu, Empress. After the death of Zhenzong, Injong was still young when he acceded to the throne, and Empress Dowager Zhang Xian listened to politics. After returning to Zheng Renzong, he died as "Xianming Zhang Su". (3) Seven Temples: For the sake of clan rule, emperors of past dynasties set up seven temples to worship seven generations of ancestors. The seven halls can only be built by the emperor.

Lu Zongdao is a well-known figure, from Bozhou. The young couple became orphans and were put in foster care at their grandmother's house. My uncles are martial arts practitioners, and they despise patriarchal clan system, which makes their study more and more helpful. (Zong Zao) paid a visit to Cheng Lun with his own special chapter, and Qi Lun valued him very much. He won the Jinshi, became the commander-in-chief of Dingyuan in Haozhou, and was transferred to Haiyan County twice. There used to be a small river in the southeast of the county; It can lead seawater to the city, but it has been blocked for a long time. Zongdao sent villagers to dredge the river. People call this water conservancy project "Lugongpu".

In the first year of Tianxi, the court began to set up six officials in two provinces to evaluate the merits of Zongdao. Zongdao and Liu Ye are the first words in the two provinces. In the past, the admonition officer's memorial was sent to the emperor through the "cabinet door envoy", and Kang Guan could not express his opinions face to face with the emperor. Lu Zongdao asked to discuss things with the emperor face to face, and the memorial was passed to the emperor through the "access department", so it became a written law. What Zongdao learned from hearsay was remonstrated many times in the court, and the emperor hated him for talking too much. Later, when Zongdao answered the emperor's question, he defended himself and said, "Does the emperor just want me to have the name of a capable minister?" I am ashamed that I do nothing but get paid for nothing. I ask to be relieved of my official position and let me leave. " The emperor pondered for a long time and finally understood his meaning. Later, he wrote the word "Lu Zhi" on the wall of the hall, probably because he missed Zongdao.

Zhang Xian was in charge of state affairs and asked Zongdao, "What kind of monarch was the marquis of Wu in the Tang Dynasty?" A: "She was a sinner in the Tang Dynasty and almost endangered the country." The queen mother was silent. At that time, someone asked to set up Liu's brand in the Seven Temples. The queen mother asked the assistant minister, and everyone dared not answer. Zong Dao did not agree with this and said, "If Liu's memorial tablet is placed in the seventh hall, what will happen to the future monarch?" One day. Emperor Injong and the Empress Dowager will go to Cixiao Temple together. They want to arrange for Empress Dowager Cixi to walk in front of the emperor in a chariot. Lu Zongdao said: "It is a woman's virtue for her husband to die and her son to obey." The queen mother immediately changed to the emperor's car. At that time, many people in power let their children read in the pavilion. Zong said: "The pavilion is a place to train talents from all over the world. How can it be a place where a dude is treated with the kindness of his parents? " Cao Liyong, the messenger of the Tang Dynasty, bullied others, and Zongdao accused him many times in front of the emperor. All the nobles and authorities are afraid of him and regard him as a "political fish head" because his surname is Lu, and he says his nature is as hard as a fish head. Twice, he was promoted to Assistant Minister of Shangshu and Ambassador of xiang yuan. When he was seriously ill, the emperor's relatives always expressed sympathy and gave him 3.2 thousand platinum. After his death, the queen mother personally went to pay homage and made him the minister of war.

Zongdao is resolute and upright, hates evil, can't tolerate it, dares to speak out when something happens, and doesn't pay attention to details. He lived near the pub when he issued an edict to Germany. He once went to a bar for a drink on his way to the battlefield. When Shinchan summoned him urgently, he sent an envoy to wait at his house for a long time before he came back from the hotel. When he arrived at the palace, the emissary wanted to enter the newspaper first, so he greeted him and said, "If the emperor blames Duke Lu for coming so late, what reason should he find to answer?" Lu Zongdao said, "Just tell the truth to the emperor." The messenger said, "If so, Duke Lu is guilty." Lu Zongdao said: "Drinking is human nature; It is a great sin to cheat the king as a minister. " When he arrived at Zhenzong, Zhenzong really asked him (why he came so late), and the messenger told the emperor truthfully as Lu Zongdao said. Song Zhenzong asked Lu Zongdao, and Lu Zongdao apologized and said, "I have an old friend from my hometown. My family is poor, so I went to the hotel to entertain him." True Sect not only didn't blame him, but also thought that Lu Zongdao's loyalty could be of great use, and told this opinion to Queen Liu. Lv Zongdao was promoted and reused when Empress Liu came to Korea.
