Biography

郭霸,庐江人。
旧唐书卷一百八十六上 列传第一百三十六:
  郭霸,庐江人也。天授二年,自宋州宁陵丞应革命举,拜左台监察御史。如意元年,除左台殿中侍御史。长寿二年,右台侍御史。初举集,召见,于则天前自陈忠鲠云:"往年征徐敬业,臣愿抽其筋,食其肉,饮其血,绝其髓。"则天悦,故拜焉,时人号为"四其御史"。
  时大夫魏元忠卧疾,诸御史尽往省之,霸独居后。比见元忠,忧惧,请示元忠便液,以验疾之轻重。元忠惊悚,霸悦曰:"大夫粪味甘,或不瘳。今味苦,当即愈矣。"元忠刚直,殊恶之,以其事露朝士。尝推芳州刺史李思征,搒捶考禁,不胜而死。圣历中,屡见思征,甚恶之。尝因退朝遽归,命家人曰:"速请僧转经设斋。"须臾见思征从数十骑上其廷,曰:"汝枉陷我,我今取汝。"霸周章惶怖,援刀自刳其腹,斯须蛆烂矣。是日,闾里亦见兵马数十骑驻于门,少顷不复见矣。时洛阳桥坏,行李弊之,至是功毕。则天尝问群臣:"比在外有何好事?"舍人张元一素滑稽,对曰:"百姓喜洛桥成,幸郭霸死,此即好事。"
