Yan Zhi Jian Wei Zheng to commit because, even in the furious Taizong occasion, he also dared to Mianzhe Mountain fight, never give way, so sometimes he will also have Tang awe. On one occasion, Emperor Taizong want to go hunting for fun in the Qinling Mountains, packing are ready, but delays could make the trip. Later, Wei Zheng asked about, Taizong replied, smiling: "When does the idea, but afraid you have to plain speaking, so soon gave up the idea." There was a time Taizong on good Chicken Hawk, put it on his shoulders, it is proud. Wei Zheng far when he saw him coming, they rushed to birds hidden in his arms. Zou Shi Wei Zheng deliberate a long time, resulting in kite suffocated in his arms.
Zhenguan years (636), Wei Zheng ordered prepared under the auspices "of the Sui", "Book Week", "Liang Shu", "Shaanxi book", "Qi" (the Five Dynasties, said), etc., lasted seven years, thus finalized . The "Book of Sui," the order of, "Liang Shu", "Chen book" and "Let's book" The General remarks were written by Wei Zheng, good history, said. In the same year, Wei Zheng suffering from eye diseases, the request to lift sijung role. Although Tang as its characteristics into the bulk of any job, but still allowed to charge the sects provincial affairs, the official's salary, reward and all treated exactly the same with sijung.
Zhenguan years (638), Tang Wei Zheng gradually see lazy, lazy government affairs, the pursuit of extravagant, they played on the famous "10 gradually thinning her inability to end," the ruling cited the early Tang was the political attitude of the current ten changes.

"
Zhenguan 16 years (642), Wei Zheng sick bed, Tang visited the manipulation to the removal across the road. Wei Zheng frugal life, no home is sleep, Emperor Taizong ordered the construction of the small house for their own material, all of the Wei Zheng, Constructing a large housing estates. Soon Wei Zheng passed away at home. Taizong personally offer condolences, cried, and said: "When a man with copper as a mirror, one can dressed; of old, we may know the rise and fall; to others, we may know pros and cons. I used to protect the three-mirror, in case have been. Wei Zheng die this death, Sui Wang a mirror carry on. "
Left, "Wei Zheng Gongwen set" and "Wei Cheng Kung poetry", "Quan Tang Shi" Recorded his poetry volume.
Jun Wei Zheng of the Wise King of the other dark, venture Conservative Debate
"Sovereign doctrine" the most important thing is to rule, Wei Zheng also deeply understand this. He was always timely use of Taizong some questions, to explain his ideas of ruling the country, not only solved the difficult Taizong, also reached the purpose of persuasion. This is Wei Zheng's clever.
The first year of Zhen Guan (627), Taizong had just ascended the throne, the King and is full of doubts. One day he asked Wei Zheng: "Ai Qing, you say what could maintain, what is the dark ruler?"
Taizong nod good, said: "If it were not because of Ai Qing, I heard so ah!"
Monarch should listen to their opinions, too, is the Confucian idea of the country a very important content. Wei Zheng inherited this idea and applied to the Golden Years by Taizong to politics. Wei Zheng's "is a wise, believe the dark side" of this principle in decision-making early in the Golden Years have been better adhere to, Taizong when we come across often widely discussed with the courtiers. This is also the political atmosphere Zhenguan an important part.
Zhenguan years (638), there is a banquet ministers, Taizong asked again: "Gentlemen Ai Qing, you talk about, is difficult to do business than done or Conservative?"
Shang Shu Fang Xuanling Zuopu She replied: "Sui chaos, competing warlords since. Majesty experienced and gone through numerous dangerous, just lay the country today, so naturally the business more difficult to say."
Wei Zheng said: "King just start a business, when all chaos. Troubled times calls forth the hero, but also to get people's support. Derived from the world after the Plaza of the heart gradually with arrogance, the desire continually to meet their own abuse financial resources of the, ultimately leading to national decline. in this case, guard more difficult ah. "
Taizong concluded: "Xuan Ling told I had to conquer the world through fire and water, suffered hardships, so I find it hard to start. Wei Zheng, together with the management of the world I fear that I give birth to pride Plaza heart, lead the peril of the country, and thus feel Conservatism more difficult. Now the difficult period of entrepreneurship has become the past, and in setting the hardships, I caution everyone to face with it. "
He ministers are: "Your Majesty will think, really lucky country, blessing the people ah!"
The Golden Years of 15 years (641), Taizong keep the world again the question of difficulty, Wei Zheng said: "Shou hard ah." Taizong ask: "As long as the people appointed elite, open to plain speaking, not on it . Why is it difficult? "Wei Zheng made further play, said:" Look at the ancient emperor came in danger of hardship, it is often able to accept criticism of any Yin. but to the world of pleasure, they will be slack, so that Over time, the question gradually emerged, eventually leading to national peril. This is be prepared to make sense. world peace but also fear of hearts, would not be difficult? "
In fact, Sui Wei Zheng is also experienced unrest, just in Taizong in power before, it did not follow him to win the throne. Said he did not understand the difficult business, this is not possible. But Wei Zheng's political accomplishments make him more aware than Fang Xuanling should be concerned at this time Conservative, is running the country. Wei Zheng did not start because of course the credit can be home, say Bale is not that area.

Empress rare Taizong made such a big fire, said to him: "Do not know which one of His Majesty wanted to kill?"
Tang said: "is not that Wei Zheng! He always insult me in front of everyone's face, so that I can not stand!"
Empress listened, saying nothing, returned to his chambers for a audience with the dress, bowing down to Emperor Taizong.
Tang surprised and asked: "What are you doing?"
Empress said: "I heard a wise minister of the emperor have integrity, that integrity is Wei Zheng, illustrates the wisdom of His Majesty, how can I not do to congratulate Your Majesty!"
This speech is like a pot of cool water to dampen the Taizong with anger.
AD 643, honestly and courageously, advice and Wei Zheng died.

Weizheng death, I mirror the less good side. "
"When a man with copper as a mirror, one can code of dress;
Look into history to the rise and fall;
In person, we can see advantages and disadvantages.
Wei Zheng dead today, I lost a Kam now! "
- This is called the value of life on the best note Wei Zheng.
