Still another legend, this one from the T'ang dynasty (618-907 A.D.) has it that haunted by evil spirits and bad dreams, the emperor T'ang T'ai Tzung had two advisers, Ch'ing Shupao and Yu Chih Ching-te stand guard at his bedroom door.
唐代的二位門神也有一段趣聞：話說涇河龍王罪犯天條，被唐太宗大將魏徵所斬。據說龍王事前曾向太宗求救，太宗遂邀魏徵下棋以拖延時刻，不想魏徵夢中斬龍王，此後龍王夜夜向太宗索命。幸得秦、尉二位大將把守宮門，才鎮壓邪祟。
