| Summary | "大唐新語" by Su Liu is a collection of historical anecdotes and moral lessons written in the early 9th century. The text provides a reflective examination of the governance and philosophies of various prominent figures during the Tang dynasty, focusing particularly on the interactions between emperors and their advisors. The work aims to illustrate the importance of virtue, wise counsel, and the moral responsibilities of leaders. At the start of the work, the narrative introduces Duke Xu, known for his exceptional wisdom and insight, who is favored by Emperor Taizong of the Tang dynasty. The emperor's admiration for Xu comes through conversations highlighting the necessity for good governance and the value of reliable advisors. The opening emphasizes the rapport between ruler and subordinates, setting the tone for a discussion on the qualities that make a worthy leader, blending discussions of political strategy with ethical considerations, thereby establishing a foundation for the lessons that unfold throughout the collection.
