Biography

刘逵,随州随县人。
宋史卷三百五十一 列传第一百一十:
  刘逵,字公路,随州随县人。进士高第,调越州观察判官。入为太学、太常博士,礼部、考功员外郎,国子司业。崇宁中,连擢秘书少监、太常少卿、中书舍人、给事中、户部侍郎,使高丽,迁尚书。繇兵部同知枢密院,拜中书侍郎。
  逵无他才能,初以附蔡京故躐进。京以彗星见去相,而逵贰中书,首劝徽宗碎《元祐党碑》,宽上书邪籍之禁;凡京所行悖理虐民事,稍稍澄正。逵与赵挺之同心;然挺之多智,虑后患,每建白,务开其端,而使逵终其说。逵欲自以为功,直情不顾。未满岁,帝疑逵擅政,而郑居中、刘正夫之策售矣。
  帝意既移,于是御史余深、石公弼论逵专恣反覆,乘间抵巘,尽废绍述良法;愚视丞相,陵蔑同列;凡所启用,多取为邪党学术者及邪籍中子弟;庇其妇兄章綖,使之盗铸。罢知亳州。
  京复相,再责镇江节度副使,安州居住。京再以星变去,稍起知杭州,加资政殿学士。以醴泉观使召,及都而卒,年五十。赠光禄大夫。
