列传(chuan)第七(qi) 李(li)德林子百药
李(li)(li)德(de)林(lin)，字(zi)公辅，博陵(ling)安平(ping)人(ren)也。祖寿，湖州户曹从(cong)(cong)事。父(fu)敬(jing)族，历太学博士、镇远将军。魏孝静帝时(shi)，命当世(shi)通人(ren)正定文籍，以为内校书，别(bie)在直閤省(sheng)。德(de)林(lin)幼(you)聪敏，年数岁，诵(song)左思(si)《蜀都(dou)赋(fu)》，十余(yu)(yu)日(ri)便(bian)度。高(gao)隆之(zhi)(zhi)见而(er)嗟(jie)叹(tan)，遍告朝士，云： “若假(jia)其年，必为天下伟器。”鄴京人(ren)士多就(jiu)宅观之(zhi)(zhi)，月余(yu)(yu)，日(ri)中车马不(bu)绝。年十五(wu)，诵(song)五(wu)经及古今文集，日(ri)数千言。俄而(er)该(gai)博坟典，阴阳纬候，无(wu)不(bu)通涉(she)。善属文，辞核(he)而(er)理(li)暢。魏收(shou)尝对高(gao)隆之(zhi)(zhi)谓其父(fu)曰(yue)：“贤子文笔终当继温子升。”隆之(zhi)(zhi)大(da)笑曰(yue)： “魏常(chang)侍(shi)殊已(yi)嫉(ji)贤，何不(bu)近(jin)比老彭，乃远求温子！”年十六，遭父(fu)艰，自驾灵舆，反(fan)葬故里。时(shi)正严冬，单衰跣(xian)足，州里人(ren)物由(you)是敬(jing)慕之(zhi)(zhi)。博陵(ling)豪族有崔谌(chen)者，仆射之(zhi)(zhi)兄，因休假(jia)还乡(xiang)，车服甚盛(sheng)。将从(cong)(cong)其宅诣德(de)林(lin)赴(fu)吊，相去十余(yu)(yu)里，从(cong)(cong)者数十骑(qi)，稍稍减留。比至德(de)林(lin)门，才(cai)余(yu)(yu)五(wu)骑(qi)，云不(bu)得令李(li)(li)生怪(guai)人(ren)燻灼。德(de)林(lin)居贫(pin)感轲，母氏(shi)多疾，方(fang)留心典籍，无(wu)复(fu)宦情。其后，母病稍愈，逼令仕(shi)进。
任城王(wang)湝为(wei)(wei)定州(zhou)刺史，重其才(cai)，召入(ru)(ru)(ru)州(zhou)馆。朝夕同游，殆均师友，不为(wei)(wei)君(jun)民(min)礼数。尝语(yu)德(de)林(lin)(lin)云：“窃闻蔽贤蒙显戮(lu)。久令君(jun)沈(shen)滞，吾独得润身(shen)，朝廷纵(zong)不见(jian)尤，亦惧明(ming)灵所谴(qian)。”于是举秀才(cai)入(ru)(ru)(ru)鄴(ye)，于时天(tian)保(bao)八(ba)年也。王(wang)因遗尚(shang)书(shu)令杨遵(zun)彦(yan)(yan)书(shu)云： “燕赵(zhao)固多奇士(shi)，此(ci)言(yan)诚不为(wei)(wei)谬。今岁所贡秀才(cai)李德(de)林(lin)(lin)者，文(wen)章学识，固不待言(yan)，观(guan)其风神(shen)器宇(yu)，终为(wei)(wei)栋(dong)梁之(zhi)(zhi)用。至如经国(guo)大(da)体(ti)，是贾生、晁错(cuo)之(zhi)(zhi)俦；雕(diao)虫小技，殆相如、子云之(zhi)(zhi)辈。今虽唐、虞(yu)君(jun)世，俊乂盈朝，然修(xiu)大(da)厦者，岂(qi)厌夫良材之(zhi)(zhi)积也？吾尝见(jian)孔文(wen)举《荐(jian)祢衡表》云：‘洪水(shui)横流(liu)，帝(di)思俾乂。’以(yi)(yi)正(zheng)平比(bi)夫大(da)禹，常谓拟谕非(fei)伦。今以(yi)(yi)德(de)林(lin)(lin)言(yan)之(zhi)(zhi)，便觉(jue)前言(yan)非(fei)大(da)。”遵(zun)彦(yan)(yan)即(ji)(ji)命德(de)林(lin)(lin)制《让尚(shang)书(shu)令表》，援笔(bi)立(li)成，不加治(zhi)点。因大(da)相赏异，以(yi)(yi)示(shi)吏部郎中陆卬。卬云：“已大(da)见(jian)其文(wen)笔(bi)，浩(hao)浩(hao)如长(zhang)河东注。比(bi)来所见(jian)，后生制作，乃涓浍(hui)之(zhi)(zhi)流(liu)耳。”卬仍命其子乂与德(de)林(lin)(lin)周旋(xuan)，戒之(zhi)(zhi)曰：“汝每事宜师此(ci)人(ren)(ren)，以(yi)(yi)为(wei)(wei)模楷。”时遵(zun)彦(yan)(yan)铨衡，深(shen)(shen)慎选举，秀才(cai)擢(zhuo)第，罕有甲科(ke)。德(de)林(lin)(lin)射策(ce)五条，考皆(jie)为(wei)(wei)上，授(shou)殿中将军。既是西省散员，非(fei)其所好，又(you)以(yi)(yi)天(tian)保(bao)季世，乃谢病(bing)还乡，阖门守道。乾(qian)明(ming)初，遵(zun)彦(yan)(yan)奏追德(de)林(lin)(lin)入(ru)(ru)(ru)议曹(cao)。皇(huang)建初，下(xia)诏(zhao)搜扬人(ren)(ren)物，复追赴(fu)晋阳。撰《春思赋》一篇，代(dai)称典丽。是时长(zhang)广王(wang)作相，居守在鄴(ye)。敕德(de)林(lin)(lin)还京，与散骑常侍(shi)高(gao)元(yuan)海(hai)等(deng)参掌机密。王(wang)引授(shou)丞相府行参军。未几而王(wang)即(ji)(ji)帝(di)位，授(shou)奉朝请(qing)，寓直舍(she)人(ren)(ren)省。河清中，授(shou)员外散骑侍(shi)郎，带斋帅，仍别(bie)直机密省。天(tian)统初，授(shou)给(ji)事中，直中书(shu)，参掌诏(zhao)诰。寻迁中书(shu)舍(she)人(ren)(ren)。武平初，加通(tong)直散骑侍(shi)郎。又(you)敕与中书(shu)侍(shi)郎宋士(shi)素、副侍(shi)中赵(zhao)彦(yan)(yan)深(shen)(shen)别(bie)典机密。寻丁母艰去(qu)职(zhi)，勺饮不入(ru)(ru)(ru)口(kou)五日(ri)。因发(fa)热病(bing)，遍体(ti)生疮，而哀泣不绝。诸士(shi)友陆骞、宋士(shi)素，名医张子彦(yan)(yan)等(deng)，为(wei)(wei)合(he)汤(tang)药。德(de)林(lin)(lin)不肯(ken)进，遍体(ti)洪肿(zhong)，数日(ri)间(jian)，一时顿差，身(shen)力平复。诸人(ren)(ren)皆(jie)云孝感所致。太常博士(shi)巴(ba)叔仁表上其事，朝廷嘉之(zhi)(zhi)。才(cai)满百(bai)日(ri)，夺(duo)情起复，德(de)林(lin)(lin)以(yi)(yi)羸病(bing)属疾，请(qing)急罢归。
魏收(shou)与(yu)阳(yang)休之(zhi)(zhi)论(lun)(lun)(lun)《齐书(shu)》起元(yuan)(yuan)(yuan)事(shi)，敕(chi)集百司会(hui)议(yi)。收(shou)与(yu)德林书(shu)曰(yue)：“前者议(yi)文，总诸事(shi)意，小(xiao)如混漫，难可领(ling)解。今便随(sui)事(shi)条列，幸(xing)为留怀，细加推逐。凡言(yan)或(huo)者，皆是(shi)敌人之(zhi)(zhi)议(yi)。既(ji)闻人说，因(yin)而探(tan)论(lun)(lun)(lun)耳。”德林复书(shu)曰(yue)：“即位(wei)之(zhi)(zhi)元(yuan)(yuan)(yuan)，《春(chun)秋(qiu)》常(chang)义。谨(jin)按鲁君(jun)息姑不称(cheng)(cheng)即位(wei)，亦有元(yuan)(yuan)(yuan)年(nian)(nian)，非(fei)独即位(wei)得称(cheng)(cheng)元(yuan)(yuan)(yuan)年(nian)(nian)也。议(yi)云受(shou)终之(zhi)(zhi)元(yuan)(yuan)(yuan)，《尚(shang)书(shu)》之(zhi)(zhi)古(gu)典。谨(jin)按《大(da)传(chuan)》，周(zhou)公摄(she)政(zheng)，一(yi)年(nian)(nian)救(jiu)乱(luan)，二年(nian)(nian)伐殷，三年(nian)(nian)践奄，四年(nian)(nian)建侯(hou)卫，五年(nian)(nian)营成周(zhou)，六年(nian)(nian)制礼作乐，七年(nian)(nian)致政(zheng)成王(wang)。论(lun)(lun)(lun)者或(huo)以(yi)(yi)舜、禹(yu)受(shou)终，是(shi)为天(tian)子(zi)。然则周(zhou)公以(yi)(yi)臣礼而死，此亦称(cheng)(cheng)元(yuan)(yuan)(yuan)，非(fei)独受(shou)终为帝也。蒙示(shi)议(yi)文，扶病(bing)省览，荒(huang)情迷识(shi)，暂得发蒙。当(dang)世君(jun)子(zi)，必无横议(yi)，唯应阁笔赞成而已。辄(zhe)谓前二条有益(yi)于议(yi)，仰见议(yi)中不录，谨(jin)以(yi)(yi)写呈(cheng)。”收(shou)重(zhong)遗书(shu)曰(yue)：“惠示(shi)二事(shi)，感佩殊深。以(yi)(yi)鲁公诸侯(hou)之(zhi)(zhi)事(shi)，昨小(xiao)为疑(yi)。息姑不书(shu)即位(wei)，舜、禹(yu)亦不言(yan)即位(wei)。息姑虽摄(she)，尚(shang)得书(shu)元(yuan)(yuan)(yuan)，舜、禹(yu)之(zhi)(zhi)摄(she)称(cheng)(cheng)元(yuan)(yuan)(yuan)，理也。周(zhou)公居摄(she)，乃云一(yi)年(nian)(nian)救(jiu)乱(luan)，似不称(cheng)(cheng)元(yuan)(yuan)(yuan)。自无《大(da)传(chuan)》，不得寻讨。一(yi)之(zhi)(zhi)与(yu)元(yuan)(yuan)(yuan)，其事(shi)何别？更有所见，幸(xing)请论(lun)(lun)(lun)之(zhi)(zhi)。”德林答曰(yue)：
摄(she)之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)与相(xiang)(xiang)，其义一也(ye)。故周(zhou)(zhou)公摄(she)政，孔子(zi)曰(yue)“周(zhou)(zhou)公相(xiang)(xiang)成王”；魏武相(xiang)(xiang)汉，曹植(zhi)曰(yue)“如(ru)虞(yu)翼唐”。或云(yun)高祖身未居(ju)摄(she)，灼然(ran)非理。摄(she)者专(zhuan)赏(shang)罚之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)名，古今事殊(shu)，不(bu)(bu)可以体为(wei)断。陆机见舜肆类上帝，班(ban)瑞群后，便云(yun)舜有天下，须(xu)格于(yu)文祖也(ye)，欲(yu)使晋之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)三(san)主(zhu)异于(yu)舜摄(she)。窃以为(wei)舜若(ruo)尧死，狱(yu)讼不(bu)(bu)归，便是夏朝(chao)之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)益(yi)，何得不(bu)(bu)须(xu)格于(yu)文祖也(ye)？若(ruo)使用王者之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)礼，便曰(yue)即真(zhen)，则周(zhou)(zhou)公负扆朝(chao)诸(zhu)侯，霍光(guang)行周(zhou)(zhou)公之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)事，皆(jie)真(zhen)帝乎？斯不(bu)(bu)然(ran)矣。必知高祖与舜摄(she)不(bu)(bu)殊(shu)，不(bu)(bu)得从士衡之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)谬。
或(huo)以(yi)(yi)为(wei)书元(yuan)(yuan)年(nian)者，当时(shi)实录，非追书也(ye)(ye)(ye)。大齐之(zhi)兴，实由武(wu)帝，谦匿受(shou)命(ming)(ming)，岂(qi)(qi)直(zhi)史(shi)(shi)也(ye)(ye)(ye)？比观(guan)论(lun)者闻追举(ju)受(shou)命(ming)(ming)之(zhi)元(yuan)(yuan)，多有(you)河汉(han)，但言追数受(shou)命(ming)(ming)之(zhi)岁(sui)，情或(huo)安之(zhi)。似所(suo)怖(bu)者元(yuan)(yuan)字(zi)耳，事类(lei)朝三，是(shi)许(xu)(xu)(xu)其一(yi)年(nian)，不许(xu)(xu)(xu)其元(yuan)(yuan)年(nian)也(ye)(ye)(ye)。案《易》“黄裳元(yuan)(yuan)吉(ji)”，郑玄注云(yun)(yun)：“如舜试天子，周公摄政(zheng)。”是(shi)以(yi)(yi)试摄不殊。《大传》虽无元(yuan)(yuan)字(zi)，一(yi)之(zhi)与(yu)元(yuan)(yuan)，无异义矣。《春(chun)(chun)秋》不言一(yi)年(nian)一(yi)月(yue)者，欲(yu)使(shi)人(ren)(ren)君体元(yuan)(yuan)以(yi)(yi)居正，盖史(shi)(shi)之(zhi)婉辞(ci)，非一(yi)与(yu)元(yuan)(yuan)别也(ye)(ye)(ye)。汉(han)献帝死(si)，刘备自(zi)尊崇。陈寿(shou)蜀人(ren)(ren)，以(yi)(yi)魏(wei)(wei)为(wei)汉(han)贼(zei)。宁(ning)肯(ken)(ken)蜀主未立，已(yi)云(yun)(yun)魏(wei)(wei)武(wu)受(shou)命(ming)(ming)乎？士(shi)衡(heng)自(zi)尊本国，诚如高议，欲(yu)使(shi)三方鼎(ding)峙，同为(wei)霸名。习氏《汉(han)晋春(chun)(chun)秋》，意(yi)在是(shi)也(ye)(ye)(ye)。至司马(ma)炎兼并，许(xu)(xu)(xu)其帝号(hao)(hao)(hao)。魏(wei)(wei)之(zhi)君臣，吴人(ren)(ren)并以(yi)(yi)为(wei)戮贼(zei)，亦(yi)宁(ning)肯(ken)(ken)当涂之(zhi)世，云(yun)(yun)晋有(you)受(shou)命(ming)(ming)之(zhi)徵？史(shi)(shi)者，编(bian)年(nian)也(ye)(ye)(ye)，故(gu)鲁号(hao)(hao)(hao)《纪(ji)年(nian)》。墨子又(you)云(yun)(yun)，吾见《百(bai)国春(chun)(chun)秋》。史(shi)(shi)又(you)有(you)无事而书年(nian)者，是(shi)重年(nian)验(yan)也(ye)(ye)(ye)。若欲(yu)高祖(zu)事事谦冲，即须号(hao)(hao)(hao)令皆推魏(wei)(wei)氏。便是(shi)编(bian)魏(wei)(wei)年(nian)，纪(ji)魏(wei)(wei)事，此即魏(wei)(wei)末功(gong)臣之(zhi)传，岂(qi)(qi)复皇朝帝纪(ji)者也(ye)(ye)(ye)。
陆(lu)机称纪(ji)元立断(duan)，或(huo)(huo)以正始(shi)(shi)，或(huo)(huo)以嘉(jia)平(ping)。束皙议(yi)云，赤雀白鱼之(zhi)事。恐晋朝之(zhi)议(yi)，是并论受命之(zhi)元，非止代(dai)终(zhong)之(zhi)断(duan)也。公议(yi)云陆(lu)机不(bu)(bu)(bu)(bu)议(yi)元者，是所未喻，愿更思之(zhi)。陆(lu)机以刊木著于(yu)《虞书》，龛黎见于(yu)商(shang)典(dian)，以蔽晋朝正始(shi)(shi)、嘉(jia)平(ping)之(zhi)议(yi)，斯又谬矣。唯可(ke)二(er)代(dai)相涉，两(liang)史(shi)并书，必不(bu)(bu)(bu)(bu)得(de)以后朝创(chuang)业之(zhi)迹，断(duan)入(ru)前史(shi)。若然，则世宗、高祖(zu)皆天(tian)保(bao)以前，唯入(ru)魏(wei)氏列传，不(bu)(bu)(bu)(bu)作(zuo)齐朝帝(di)纪(ji)，可(ke)乎？此既不(bu)(bu)(bu)(bu)可(ke)，彼(bi)复何证！
是时中(zhong)书(shu)侍(shi)郎(lang)(lang)杜台(tai)卿(qing)上《世(shi)祖(zu)武成皇帝颂》，齐主以为(wei)未(wei)尽善，令和士(shi)开以颂示德林(lin)(lin)。宣(xuan)旨(zhi)云：“台(tai)卿(qing)此文(wen)，未(wei)当朕(zhen)意。以卿(qing)有大才，须叙盛德，即(ji)宜速作，急进本(ben)也。”德林(lin)(lin)乃上颂十六章(zhang)并(bing)序，文(wen)多不载。武成览颂善之(zhi)，赐名马(ma)一匹(pi)。三(san)年，祖(zu)孝(xiao)徵入为(wei)侍(shi)中(zhong)，尚书(shu)左仆射赵彦深(shen)(shen)出(chu)为(wei)兗州(zhou)刺史。朝士(shi)有先为(wei)孝(xiao)徵所待(dai)遇者，间德林(lin)(lin)，云是彦深(shen)(shen)党与，不可仍掌(zhang)机密。孝(xiao)徵曰：“德林(lin)(lin)久滞(zhi)绛衣，我常恨彦深(shen)(shen)待(dai)贤未(wei)足。内(nei)省文(wen)翰(han)，方以委之(zhi)。寻当有佳处(chu)分，不宜妄说。”寻除中(zhong)书(shu)侍(shi)郎(lang)(lang)，仍诏修(xiu)国(guo)史。齐主留情文(wen)雅，召(zhao)入文(wen)林(lin)(lin)馆。又令与黄门(men)侍(shi)郎(lang)(lang)颜(yan)之(zhi)推二人同(tong)判文(wen)林(lin)(lin)馆事。五(wu)年，敕令与黄门(men)侍(shi)郎(lang)(lang)李(li)孝(xiao)贞、中(zhong)书(shu)侍(shi)郎(lang)(lang)李(li)若别(bie)掌(zhang)宣(xuan)传。寻除通直(zhi)散骑常侍(shi)，兼(jian)中(zhong)书(shu)侍(shi)郎(lang)(lang)。隆化中(zhong)，假仪同(tong)三(san)司。承光中(zhong)，授仪同(tong)三(san)司。
及(ji)周武帝(di)(di)克齐，入(ru)鄴之(zhi)(zhi)日(ri)，敕小司马(ma)唐道和(he)就(jiu)宅宣旨慰喻，云：“平齐之(zhi)(zhi)利，唯在于尔。朕本畏尔逐齐王东(dong)走，今闻犹在，大(da)(da)(da)以(yi)慰怀，宜(yi)即(ji)入(ru)相见。”道和(he)引之(zhi)(zhi)入(ru)内，遣内史字文昂访问齐朝风(feng)俗政教、人物(wu)善恶，即(ji)留内省，三宿乃归。仍遣从驾(jia)至长安，授(shou)内史上士。自此以(yi)后(hou)，诏诰(gao)格(ge)式，及(ji)用山东(dong)人物(wu)，一(yi)以(yi)委之(zhi)(zhi)。武帝(di)(di)尝于云阳宫作鲜卑语(yu)谓(wei)群臣(chen)云：“我常(chang)日(ri)唯闻李(li)德(de)林名，及(ji)见其(qi)与齐朝作诏书移檄，我正谓(wei)其(qi)是天上人。岂(qi)言今日(ri)得其(qi)驱使，复为我作文书，极为大(da)(da)(da)异。”神武公(gong)纥豆陵(ling)毅答曰(yue)：“臣(chen)闻明王圣主，得骐驎凤凰为瑞，是圣德(de)所感(gan)，非力能致(zhi)之(zhi)(zhi)。瑞物(wu)虽来，不堪(kan)使用。如李(li)德(de)林来受驱策(ce)，亦(yi)陛下圣德(de)感(gan)致(zhi)，有(you)大(da)(da)(da)才(cai)用，无(wu)所不堪(kan)，胜于骐驎凤凰远(yuan)矣。”武帝(di)(di)大(da)(da)(da)笑曰(yue)：“诚(cheng)如公(gong)言。”宣政末，授(shou)御正下大(da)(da)(da)夫(fu)。大(da)(da)(da)象初，赐爵成(cheng)安县男。

德(de)林自(zi)(zi)隋有(you)(you)天下，每赞平(ping)(ping)陈(chen)之(zhi)计。八年，车驾幸同州，德(de)林以疾不从(cong)。敕书追之(zhi)，书后(hou)御(yu)笔注云(yun)：“伐陈(chen)事意，宜(yi)自(zi)(zi)随(sui)也。”时高(gao)颎(jiong)(jiong)因使入京(jing)，上语颎(jiong)(jiong)曰(yue)(yue)：“德(de)林若患未(wei)堪(kan)行(xing)，宜(yi)自(zi)(zi)至宅，取其方略。”高(gao)祖(zu)(zu)以之(zhi)付晋(jin)王广。后(hou)从(cong)驾还，在途(tu)中，高(gao)祖(zu)(zu)以马鞭南指云(yun)：“待平(ping)(ping)陈(chen)讫，会以七宝(bao)装严公(gong)(gong)，使自(zi)(zi)山(shan)东无及(ji)(ji)之(zhi)者。”及(ji)(ji)陈(chen)平(ping)(ping)，授柱国、郡公(gong)(gong)，实封八百户(hu)，赏物三千段(duan)。晋(jin)王广已宣敕讫，有(you)(you)人说高(gao)颎(jiong)(jiong)曰(yue)(yue)：“天子(zi)画策，晋(jin)王及(ji)(ji)诸将戮力之(zhi)所致(zhi)也。今(jin)乃归功于李德(de)林，诸将必(bi)当愤惋，且(qie)后(hou)世观公(gong)(gong)有(you)(you)若虚行(xing)。”颎(jiong)(jiong)入言(yan)之(zhi)，高(gao)祖(zu)(zu)乃止。
初，大(da)象末，高祖(zu)以(yi)(yi)(yi)逆(ni)人(ren)王(wang)谦(qian)宅赐(ci)之(zhi)(zhi)，文(wen)书已出，至地官府，忽复(fu)改(gai)赐(ci)崔谦(qian)。上语德林(lin)(lin)曰(yue)(yue)：“夫(fu)人(ren)欲得(de)，将与(yu)其舅。于(yu)公无(wu)形迹(ji)，不(bu)(bu)须争之(zhi)(zhi)，可(ke)自(zi)选一(yi)(yi)好宅。若不(bu)(bu)称(cheng)意(yi)，当(dang)为(wei)营造，并觅庄店(dian)作替。”德林(lin)(lin)乃(nai)奏取(qu)逆(ni)人(ren)高阿那肱卫国县市店(dian)八十塸为(wei)王(wang)谦(qian)宅替。九年(nian)(nian)，车驾(jia)幸(xing)晋阳，店(dian)人(ren)上表诉称(cheng)：“地是(shi)(shi)民(min)(min)物，高氏(shi)强夺，于(yu)内造舍。”上命有司(si)料还价直(zhi)。遇追苏威自(zi)长安至，奏云(yun)(yun)(yun)：“高阿那肱是(shi)(shi)乱世(shi)宰相(xiang)，以(yi)(yi)(yi)谄媚得(de)幸(xing)，枉取(qu)民(min)(min)地，造店(dian)赁之(zhi)(zhi)。德林(lin)(lin)诬誷，妄(wang)奏自(zi)入。”李圆(yuan)通、冯世(shi)基等又进云(yun)(yun)(yun)：“此店(dian)收(shou)利如食千(qian)户，请计(ji)日追赃。”上因责德林(lin)(lin)，德林(lin)(lin)请勘逆(ni)人(ren)文(wen)簿(bu)及本(ben)(ben)换(huan)宅之(zhi)(zhi)意(yi)，上不(bu)(bu)听，乃(nai)悉追店(dian)给(ji)所住者。自(zi)是(shi)(shi)益嫌之(zhi)(zhi)。十年(nian)(nian)，虞庆则等于(yu)关东诸道巡省使还，并奏云(yun)(yun)(yun)：“五百家(jia)乡(xiang)正，专理辞讼，不(bu)(bu)便于(yu)民(min)(min)。党与(yu)爱憎，公行(xing)货贿。” 上仍令(ling)废(fei)之(zhi)(zhi)。德林(lin)(lin)复(fu)奏云(yun)(yun)(yun)：“此事(shi)臣本(ben)(ben)以(yi)(yi)(yi)为(wei)不(bu)(bu)可(ke)。然(ran)置来始尔(er)，复(fu)即停废(fei)，政令(ling)不(bu)(bu)一(yi)(yi)，朝成暮毁，深非帝王(wang)设法(fa)之(zhi)(zhi)义。臣望陛(bi)下(xia)若于(yu)律(lv)令(ling)辄欲改(gai)张，即以(yi)(yi)(yi)军法(fa)从事(shi)。不(bu)(bu)然(ran)者，纷纭未(wei)已。”高祖(zu)遂发怒，大(da)诟云(yun)(yun)(yun)：“尔(er)欲将我作王(wang)莽邪？”初，德林(lin)(lin)称(cheng)父为(wei)太尉谘议，以(yi)(yi)(yi)取(qu)赠(zeng)官，李元操与(yu)陈茂等阴奏之(zhi)(zhi)曰(yue)(yue)：“德林(lin)(lin)之(zhi)(zhi)父终于(yu)校书，妄(wang)称(cheng)谘议。”上甚衔之(zhi)(zhi)。至是(shi)(shi)，复(fu)庭议忤意(yi)，因数之(zhi)(zhi)曰(yue)(yue)：“公为(wei)内史(shi)，典朕(zhen)机密，比(bi)不(bu)(bu)可(ke)豫计(ji)议者，以(yi)(yi)(yi)公不(bu)(bu)弘耳。宁自(zi)知乎？朕(zhen)方(fang)以(yi)(yi)(yi)孝(xiao)治天(tian)下(xia)，恐斯(si)道废(fei)阙，故立五教以(yi)(yi)(yi)弘之(zhi)(zhi)。公言(yan)孝(xiao)由天(tian)性(xing)，何须设教。然(ran)则孔子(zi)不(bu)(bu)当(dang)说《孝(xiao)经》也(ye)。又誷冒取(qu)店(dian)，妄(wang)加(jia)父官，朕(zhen)实忿之(zhi)(zhi)而未(wei)能发。今当(dang)以(yi)(yi)(yi)一(yi)(yi)州(zhou)相(xiang)遣耳。”因出为(wei)湖州(zhou)刺史(shi)。德林(lin)(lin)拜谢曰(yue)(yue)： “臣不(bu)(bu)敢复(fu)望内史(shi)令(ling)，请预(yu)散参。待(dai)陛(bi)下(xia)登封告成，一(yi)(yi)观(guan)盛礼(li)，然(ran)后收(shou)拙丘(qiu)园(yuan)，死且不(bu)(bu)恨。”上不(bu)(bu)许，转怀州(zhou)刺史(shi)。在州(zhou)逢(feng)亢旱，课民(min)(min)掘井(jing)溉(gai)田(tian)，空致劳扰，竟无(wu)补(bu)益，为(wei)考司(si)所贬。岁余，卒官，时年(nian)(nian)六十一(yi)(yi)。赠(zeng)大(da)将军、廉州(zhou)刺史(shi)，谥(shi)曰(yue)(yue)文(wen)。及将葬，敕令(ling)羽林(lin)(lin)百人(ren)，并鼓吹一(yi)(yi)部，以(yi)(yi)(yi)给(ji)丧事(shi)。赠(zeng)物三百段(duan)，粟千(qian)石，祭(ji)以(yi)(yi)(yi)太牢。
德(de)林(lin)美容仪，善谈吐，齐(qi)天统中，兼中书侍(shi)郎(lang)，于宾馆受国(guo)书。陈(chen)使江总目送之(zhi)(zhi)曰(yue)：“此(ci)即河朔之(zhi)(zhi)英灵也。”器(qi)量沉深(shen)，时人未(wei)(wei)(wei)能测，唯任城王湝、赵彦(yan)深(shen)、魏收(shou)、陆遝大相钦重(zhong)，延誉之(zhi)(zhi)言(yan)，无所(suo)(suo)不及(ji)(ji)。德(de)林(lin)少孤，未(wei)(wei)(wei)有字，魏收(shou)谓之(zhi)(zhi)曰(yue)：“识度(du)天才，必至(zhi)公辅(fu)，吾辄以(yi)(yi)此(ci)字卿。”从(cong)官以(yi)(yi)后，即典机密，性(xing)重(zhong)慎(shen)，尝云(yun)古人不言(yan)温(wen)树，何足称也。少以(yi)(yi)才学见知(zhi)，及(ji)(ji)位望(wang)稍(shao)高，颇伤自任，争名之(zhi)(zhi)徒，更相谮(jian)毁，所(suo)(suo)以(yi)(yi)运属兴王，功参(can)佐(zuo)命，十余年间竟(jing)不徙级。所(suo)(suo)撰(zhuan)文集，勒成八(ba)十卷(juan)，遭乱(luan)亡(wang)失，见五十卷(juan)行于世。敕撰(zhuan)《齐(qi)史》未(wei)(wei)(wei)成。
有子曰百(bai)药，博涉多(duo)才(cai)，词藻清(qing)赡。释巾太子通(tong)事舍人(ren)，后迁太子舍人(ren)、尚(shang)书礼部员外郎，袭爵安平县公，桂州司马。炀帝(di)恶其初不附己(ji)，以(yi)为(wei)步兵校尉。大业末，转建安郡丞。
史臣曰：德林幼有操尚，学富才优，誉重鄴中，声飞关右。王基缔构，协赞谋猷，羽檄交驰，丝纶间发，文诰之美，时无与二。君臣体合，自致青云，不患莫己知，岂徒言也！
