Biography

钟绍京,虔州赣人。
旧唐书卷九十七 列传第四十七:
  钟绍京,虔州赣人也。初为司农录事,以工书直凤阁,则天时明堂门额、九鼎之铭,及诸宫殿门榜,皆绍京所题。景龙中,为苑总监。玄宗之诛韦氏,绍京夜中帅户奴及丁夫以从。及事成,其夜拜绍京银青光禄大夫、中书侍郎,参知机务。翌日,进拜中书令,加光禄大夫,封越国公,赐实封五百户,赐物二千段、马十匹。绍京既当朝用事,恣情赏罚,甚为时人所恶。俄又抗疏让官,睿宗纳薛稷之言,乃转为户部尚书,出为蜀州刺史。
  玄宗即位,复召拜户部尚书,迁太子詹事。时姚崇素恶绍京之为人,因奏绍京发言怨望,左迁绵州刺史。及坐事,累贬琰川尉,尽削其阶爵及实封。俄又历迁温州别驾。开元十五年,入朝,因垂泣奏曰:"陛下岂不记畴昔之事耶?何忍弃臣荒外,永不见阙庭。且当时立功之人,今并亡殁,唯臣衰老独在,陛下岂不垂愍耶?"玄宗为之惘然,即日拜银青光禄大夫、右谕德。久之,转少詹事。年八十余卒。绍京雅好书画古迹,聚二王及褚遂良书至数十百卷。建中元年,重赠太子太傅。
