《新唐书》“事增于前，文省于旧”是指它记载的历史比《旧唐书》要丰富得多，而文字却要少得多。但是，《新唐书》的许多“文省”是刻意为之，故难免有削足适履之嫌。《新唐书》在把一些史实重新改写时，不顾发生的时间、地点等有不同而将其硬扯在一起，亦被后辈学者所质疑和诟病。

The Xin Tang Shu （New Books of Tang Dynasty, 1060） is a series of books featured by ＂more contents but less words compared with its predecessor＂, meaning that it contains many more historical data but much less words than the Jiu Tang Shu （ Old Books of Tang Dynasty, 945 ）. Many omissions in it are, howev- er, deliberate, and therefore inappropriate. In addition, its confusion with such details as the time and the lo- cation while rewriting some of the historical facts has been another target of queries and challenges for later scholars.
