Biography

吕本,寿州人。
明史卷三百 列传第一百八十八:
  吕本,寿州人,懿文太子次妃父也。仕元,为元帅府都事。后归太祖,授中书省令史。洪武五年历官吏部尚书。六年改太常司卿。明年四月,御史台言:“本奉职不谨,郊坛牲角非茧栗,功臣庙坏不修。”诏免官,罚役功臣庙。已,释为北平按察司佥事。帝召本及同时被命杨基、答禄与权,谕之曰:“风宪之设,在肃纪纲,清吏治,非专理刑名。尔等往修厥职,务明大体,毋效俗吏拘绳墨。善虽小,为之不已,将成全德;过虽小,积之不已,将为大憝。不见干云之台,由寸土之积,燎原之火,由一爝之微,可不慎哉!”本等顿首受命,寻复累迁太常司卿。逾二年卒,无子,赐葬钟山之阴。
  马全,洪武中为光禄少卿。其女,乃惠帝后也。燕兵陷都城,全不知所终。
