Be good at distinguishing between true and false, don't let courtiers be cunning, and let everyone know how to motivate themselves. "Judging from what he did when he was in office, he was indeed an excellent and promising emperor. Chen's pragmatic and benevolent attitude in governing the country is also reflected in the law prohibiting luxury and wheat cultivation issued during his administration. In April of the first year of Tiankang (566), he wrote in his testamentary edict: "It's just Wang Yenan. After years of war, people are always cautious. Now that the country is stable and education is not done, I will live a long life. What a pity! "
Historical evaluation of Chen Baxian: "This son is also an English show."
Xu Ling: "Brilliant and heroic, I went all over the sky to discuss it. It was totally a calculation. I was depressed and swept across Jianghuai, driven by Bahan, and was overwhelmed by the wind. I was stunned by the thunder, I was defeated by Master Kun in the north, and I was defeated by the West. I am diligent and diligent, listening to politics and eating all night. "
Yu Shinan: "Emperor Wen is intelligent and knowledgeable, compiling, united in one mind, honest and clean, rewarding and punishing justly, discerning politics, and dare not hide anything. The history of the country thinks that the wind of peace, and it is also said. "
Yao Silian's Chen Shu: "sai-jo knew the sufferings of the people. State funds should be used sparingly. Those who constantly adjust and collect things, but don't get what they have, will change their colors if they are in the body. Experts make decisions, know the truth, rape is not allowed, and people know how to encourage themselves. Stab the boudoir overnight, and you get a foreign judge, and it goes on and on. Every chicken is waiting to pee, and the news is signed in the temple. Therefore, the sender must sign the stone to make the gun sound and say,' Although I sleep, I am also shocked'. Always outline, if this is more. "
Li yanshou's "Southern History": "Wen Di started with cloth clothes, knew the sufferings of the people, and used the state's capital to save clothes and food. If you know the truth, you won't be raped. Stab the boudoir overnight, and you get a foreign judge, and it goes on and on. Everyone was waiting in the temple to hand in the sign, so that the sign could be cast on the step stone. The gun went off and said,' Although I was asleep, I was shocked.' Its self-improvement is so cloud. "
Anecdotal allusions and Han Zigao
Chen Wendi has a beautiful favourite, Han Zigao. Chen knew this beautiful boy when he was in Linchuan Wang. Since then, Han Zigao has been attached to him and loved him.
