Pei Xia related events

In the third year of the unification of West Wei Wendi (537), Gao Huan and Yu Wentai fought in Shayuan (now Dali, Shaanxi), and Pei Xia led the Ministry of War to fight with the army. He took the lead bravely. Emperor Wen rewarded his brave spirit, quoted Confucius as saying that "a benevolent person must be brave" and ordered him to change Pei Xie to Pei Xia. Be promoted to marquis for meritorious military service. In the eighth year of Datong (542), Wang Sizheng, the secretariat of Bingzhou, was ordered to guard the Jade Wall (now southwest of Jishan Mountain, Shanxi Province), and Wei Xiaokuan, who was good at fighting, and Pei Xia, who was resourceful, were chosen as the long history. Imperial Pen City, Bali, Fiona Fang, has a deep valley and dangerous terrain, which is insurmountable. Gao Huan recruited senior officials to carry out ideological and political work, hoping to disintegrate the forces of the Western Wei Dynasty. Wang Sizheng asked Pei Xia to answer, and his words were heroic. Emperor Wen praised Pei Xia for helping others overcome difficulties, just like Lu Zhonglian in the Warring States period. In the 12th year of Datong (546), Gao Huan repeatedly attacked the Jade Wall and fell ill. Pei Xia made meritorious service in the defense of Yubi and became the governor of Hebei Province. When he was in office, he was diligent and thrifty, loving the people like a son. In Hebei county, there are 30 fishermen and 30 people for the county magistrate to drive. Pei Xia thought that satisfying his appetite made others feel uneasy, so he ordered it to be exempted. And the rent paid by these workers bought official horses and raised horses in groups for several years. When he left office, he took nothing with him. There is no one in the county who does not miss him. People made up a song to preach: "If you don't eat fat, Ding Yong won't take it, it's the rule of the world." Emperor Wen appreciates Pei Xiaqing's style of loving the people and wants to set an example for all county chiefs. Once in North Korea, he ordered Pei Xia to be independent, and then told everyone that Pei Xia's integrity was the best in the world. Whoever you can compare with him can stand with him, and all the county chiefs are afraid to deal with it. So Emperor Wen gave him rich materials, which convinced the ruling and opposition parties and called him a "sole envoy".
