劉審交 Liu Shenjiao

劉審交，字求益，幽州文安人也。 Liu Shenjiao, styled Qiuyi, came from Wen’an in Youzhou.

劉守光僭號，以審交為兵部尚書，守光敗，歸於太原，唐莊宗以為從事。 When Liu Shouguang declared himself emperor, he made Shenjiao Minister of War. Shouguang fell; he returned to Taiyuan and Zhuangzong made him a staff associate.

其後趙德鈞鎮范陽，北面轉運使馬紹宏辟審交判官。 Later Zhao Dejun held Fanyang. Northern transport commissioner Ma Shaohong took Shenjiao as registrar.

王晏球討王都，以為轉運供軍使。 Wang Yanqiu campaigned against Wang Du; Shenjiao was made transport commissioner supplying the army.

晉高祖即位，楊光遠討範延光於魏州，審交復為供軍使。 When Jin’s Gaozu took the throne Yang Guangyuan campaigned against Fan Yanguang at Weizhou. Shenjiao was again supply commissioner.

是時，晉高祖分戶部、度支、鹽鐵為三使，歲餘，三司益煩弊，乃復合為一，拜審交三司使。 Jin’s Gaozu had split Household, Revenue, and Salt-Iron into three bureaus. After a year the three grew more tangled; they were merged again and Shenjiao was made Three-Bureaus commissioner.

議者請檢天下民田，宜得益租，審交曰：「租有定額，而天下比年無閑田，民之苦樂，不可等也。」 Counsellors proposed inspecting all the realm’s farmland to raise rent. Shenjiao said: “Rent has a fixed quota, yet in recent years the realm has had no idle fields—the people’s hardship and ease cannot be equated.”

安從進平，徙審交襄州，又徙青州，皆有善政。 After An Congjin was pacified Shenjiao was moved to Xiangzhou, then Qingzhou—both with good government.

契丹犯京師，留蕭翰而去，翰復以審交為三司使。 The Khitan invaded the capital and left Xiao Han behind. Han again made Shenjiao Three-Bureaus commissioner.

審交進曰：「余燕人也，今為燕守城，當為燕謀，然事勢不可為也。 Shenjiao advanced and said: “I am a Yan man. Now I guard the city for Yan and should plan for Yan—yet the situation cannot be done.

高祖至，罷審交不用。 When Han Gaozu arrived he dismissed Shenjiao from office.
