In the 1467, the Yao people revolted and were put down. Young men and boys were taken to the capital and castrated. One young eunuch, Wang Chih / Zhi, rose in power and in 1477 was put in charge of the dreaded West Agency, an intelligence organization reporting directly to the emperor. The emperor Hsien / Xian was a dullard who gave Wang free rein. Another eunuch, an actor known only as Ah-Ch’o / Ah-Cho, cleverly alerted the emperor to Wang’s overreach.

Ti Ch’ing / Di Qing was born poor in 1008 ce. He may have committed some crime when he was young, because he had a tattoo on his face, and was sent to serve in the army on the border. He was a skilled mounted archer and rose through the ranks. Perhaps because of the tattoo, he often wore a mask into battle. He was very clever and found ways to reach his objective without too much exertion or loss of life.

The Tang dynasty was a time of glory, literature, and elegance, but especially in the later half, it was not a good time for the bulk of the population. The Emperor Hsüan / Xuan stayed in power too long, trusted horrible people, and countenanced An Lushan (Kang Roxan)’s revolt, leading to enormous suffering.
In the 770s, a commander named Wang Kuoliang/Guoliang was put in such a position by his superior, Hsin Chingkao / Xin Jinggao that he saw no choice but to revolt. The Emperor asked Kuan Po / Guan Bo for advice, but the King Kao of Ts’ao (Gao of Cao) solved the problem without bloodshed.

唐玄宗默許安史之亂,再下來唐朝人民很苦。朝廷內各懷鬼胎,勾心鬥角。
王國良造反,其實是上級辛京杲逼的。曹王皋有慧眼,了解王國良有苦衷。

For our 50th podcast, I remind us all that I record these podcasts to tell lesser known stories from Chinese history. But everybody has a story to tell, so today I’m telling stories from my own family, from my neighbors, from people I know, from people I have heard of, and a record, only a few dozen words long, from 772 ce, in the Tang dynasty.

劉邦(劉季)是楚國平民,項羽是楚國貴族。秦滅時,都起義。楚懷王(楚義帝)叫他們互拜兄弟,不可以鬧。可是范增認為劉邦太危險,雖封為漢中王,不可以讓猛虎歸山,叫項羽看著他。剛好劉邦家眷落入項羽手中,項羽以為這下子劉邦必須聽話。
