Liáng Kèjiā 梁克家 (1128–1187), zì Shūzǐ 叔子, posthumous title Wénjìng 文靖, enfeoffed Duke of Yí (Yíguógōng 儀國公), of Jìnjiāng 晉江 in Quánzhōu 泉州. The first-rank graduate (zhuàngyuán) of the Shàoxīng 30 (1160) palace examination under Gāozōng. After serving as qiānpàn of Píngjiāng 平江 and zhèngzì of the Imperial Library (Mìshūshěng zhèngzì 秘書省正字), he advanced rapidly under Xiàozōng through the offices of zhōngshūshèrén 中書舍人, Hànlín xuéshì 翰林學士, cānzhī zhèngshì 參知政事, and yòu chéngxiàng 右丞相 (1172). Following political setbacks at court he resigned and returned to Fújiàn, taking up successively the prefectures of Jiànníng 建寧 and Fúzhōu 福州 (the latter from Chúnxī 6 / 1179). He was recalled to court in Chúnxī 9 (1182) and reappointed yòu chéngxiàng. During his second Fúzhōu tenure (1179–1182) he directed the compilation of the Chúnxī Sānshān zhì KR2k0012, working with his vice-prefect Chén Fùliáng 陳傅良 — the earliest extant Fúzhōu and Fújiàn gazetteer. CBDB id 10900 confirms 1128–1187. The Sòng shǐ describes his prose as “weighty, ample, lucid, and self-contained” and notes that his drafted court documents (címìng) circulated widely in his day, though his other writings rarely survive.
