胡諧之 Hu Xiezhi

胡諧之，豫章南昌人也。 Hu Xiezhi was a man of Nanchang in Yuzhang.

諧之初辟州從事主簿，臨賀王國常侍，員外郎，撫軍行參軍，晉熙王安西中兵參軍，南梁郡太守。 Xiezhi was first recruited as Chief Clerk of the provincial aides, then served as Constant Attendant in the Kingdom of Linhe, External Clerk, acting staff officer on the Pacification Army staff, central army staff officer on the Prince of Jinxi's Army That Guards the West staff, and Grand Administrator of Nanliang commandery.

世祖頓盆城，使諧之守尋陽城，及爲江州，復以諧之爲別駕，委以事任。 When Emperor Wu was stationed at Pencheng he had Xiezhi guard Xunyang city; when he became Inspector of Jiang Province he again made Xiezhi Administrative Aide and entrusted him with affairs.

文惠太子鎮襄陽，世祖以諧之心腹，出爲北中郎征虜司馬、扶風太守，爵關內侯。 When Crown Prince Wenhui was stationed at Xiangyang, the future Emperor Wu sent his trusted confidant Xiezhi out as Major on the Northern Gentlemen-in-Attendance Punitive Campaign staff and Grand Administrator of Fufeng, ennobling him as Marquis within the Passes.

諧之風形瓌潤，善自居處，兼以舊恩見遇，朝士多與交遊。 Xiezhi was striking in appearance and graceful in bearing; because of old favor he was well received at court, and many officials sought his company.

上欲遷諧之，嘗從容謂諧之曰：「江州有幾侍中邪？」 The emperor wished to promote Xiezhi and once asked him casually: "How many Attendants-in-Ordinary does Jiang province have?"

諧之答曰：「近世唯有程道惠一人而已。」 Xiezhi answered: "In recent times there has been only Cheng Daohui."

後以語尚書令王儉，儉意更異，乃以爲太子中庶子，領左衞率。 Later he told Minister of Education Wang Jian, whose view differed; Xiezhi was therefore made Household Subordinate of the Heir Apparent and Leader of the Left Guard.

諧之兄謨之亡，諧之上表曰：「臣私門罪釁，早備荼苦。 When Xiezhi's elder brother Mozhi died, he memorialized: "Your servant's family has long known guilt and bitterness.
