'''Biography'''

Tāng's family was originally from Huángméi County 黃梅縣 in Húběi [[湖北]], but his father Tāng Lín 湯霖 (a ''Jìnshì'' 進士 degree holder) was appointed a county official in Wèiyuán County 渭源縣, Gānsù [[甘肅]]. Before long, his father quit his post and began a private academy, where Tāng studied as a youth.
