Wei Xie(580 - February 11, 643), word Xuancheng¡£Tang Julu (now from Julu County, Hebei Province, also known as Jinzhou City or Guantao County) was a native of Tang Dynasty. He once served as Doctor Jianyi and Doctor Zuo Guanglu, and was awarded the title Zheng Guogong, posthumous title wenzhen, famous for his direct advice and daring to speak, he is the most famous remonstrant in Chinese history. He wrote the preface to "Sui Shu", the general introduction to "Liang Shu", "Chen Shu", "Qi Shu", etc. His remarks are more common in "Zhenguan Politicians". Among them, the most famous and handed down remonstration---" Jian Taizong Ten Thoughts ".

Wei Xiang was impoverished when he was a teenager, and he defected to the Wagang Army at the end of the Sui Dynasty. He was defeated and returned to the Tang Dynasty. Later, he was captured by Dou Jiande, and Jiande read his talents and accepted him. Jiande was defeated and returned to the Tang Dynasty. He worshipped the crown prince to wash his horse, and the crown prince Li Jiancheng. After the change in Xuanwumen, Emperor Taizong of Tang was promoted to a doctor for his honesty, and later moved to the post of secretary, supervisor, and servant, and committed more than 200 crimes.

The Empress of the eldest grandson sent someone to tell Wei Zhen, "I have heard of justice and integrity, and now it is true. May the public always keep this ambition and do not change it less." Once, Li Shimin "got a good harrier, and he saw the harrier coming from his arm, and hid it in his arms; the harrier has been going on for a long time, but the harrier died in his arms."

In the sixth year of Zhenguan (632), Li Shimin returned to the Inner Palace after a strike. He was furious: "We must kill this farmhouse man." "Empress Zhangsun comforted Taizong with kind words before avoiding this disaster. On January 23, 17th year (643), Wei Zheng died of illness. Taizong was extremely sad and said to his courtiers: "People use copper as a mirror, so they can straighten their clothes, use ancient times as a mirror, so they can see ups and downs, and use people as a mirror, so they can know gains and losses. Wei Zheng died, and I lost a mirror!¡»¡£

Emperor Taizong of Tang originally promised his daughter, Princess Hengshan, to Wei Zheng's eldest son, Wei Shuyu, as his wife. After Wei Zheng's death, the Taizong clan wrote a poem and built a monument for it. Wei Zheng had secretly recommended to Emperor Taizong of Tang Du Zhenglun, the waiter of Zhongshu at that time, and Hou Junji, the minister of officials, that they had the talent of prime ministers, but after Wei Zheng's death, Du Zhenglun was convicted and deposed, and Hou Junji was beheaded for rebellion, which made Emperor Taizong of Tang suspect that Wei Zheng was actually secretly forming a party. Emperor Taizong of Tang also found that every remonstrance Wei Xiang had during his lifetime, he had to leave a copy in his home and had shown it to the historian Chu Suiliang. Taizong suspected that this move was reserved for self-admiration and to gain a clear name. Under great anger, he ordered the tombstone of Wei Xiang's tomb written by him to be torn down. Taizong also ordered to terminate the marriage contract, and the princess of Hengshan would no longer marry the Wei family. Chen Yinke wrote: "Fortunately, after he found out that Yu Xiang was dead, he would have been killed with Zhang Liang and Hou Junji, and the tablet of stopping the marriage was still a thin punishment."

In the 18th year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was frustrated in his own expedition to Koryo and lamented,"If Wei Zheng were here, I would not be able to do anything." So he ordered the destroyed Wei Zheng tombstone to be rebuilt and expressed condolences to Wei Zheng's surviving family members.
