For some people, all separation is just a form, no matter the vicissitudes, no matter how the years change. They always lived in each other's memories, just like Tang Wan and Lu You, and like Zhao Shicheng and Tang Wan.
It was as if they were cursed by fate, and they could not keep each other and could not forget each other.
01. The most painful thing in life is parting
Mention the famous patriotic poet Lu You of the Song Dynasty, I believe that everyone is not unfamiliar. When the Southern Song Dynasty was in crisis, he ignored the suppression of the lords and factions, insisted on resisting Jin, and provided advice for the Northern Expedition.
His poems are easy to understand, the rules are neat and rigorous, and he has both the openness of Li Bai and the heaviness of Du Fu. He has a strong personality, both civil and military skills, an official eunuch family lineage, and a dignified appearance. It can be said that Luyou is not winning at the starting line of life, but being born at the finish line.
But the monthly profit is a loss, and the water overflows. Such a land tour, but the love road is extremely bumpy.
When Lu You was 20 years old, he was led by his parents and married his first wife, Tang Wan, with the ancestral Fengchao as the final courtesy. Tang Huan is beautiful and talented, and Lu You is dignified and talented. They lived happily after marriage.
Lu You's early career was not smooth, and Lu's mother blamed this on Tang Wan, dissatisfied with the little couple's tiredness and crookedness all day, worried about the long love of her children, and delayed her son's future. In addition, Tang Huan was married for 3 years without getting pregnant, so he ordered his son to divorce his wife. "The second parent is afraid that he is lazy in learning and counts the number of women."
It sounds weird and funny, but in fact, this kind of thing is common in society at that time. For example, the Han Le Fu poem "Peacock Southeast Flying Li" writes a similar story:
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the wife of the young official Jiao Zhongqing was driven back to her mother's house by her mother-in-law, and she did not want to remarry, so she had to commit suicide by throwing herself into the water. After Jiao Zhongqing heard the news of his wife's death, he also hanged himself from a tree in the courtyard of his home.
However, the kingdom is filial piety, and Lu You loves his parents. Even if he loves his wife again, it is not easy to disobey his elders. In desperation, he consulted with Tang Huan, wrote a letter of resignation, and first secretly placed her in the other courtyard, waiting for the opportunity to pick her up, promising never to fail.
However, lu mu, who was born into a famous family, is not only strong, but also has a high level of investigation. Soon after, she noticed that the couple was still secretly meeting, and the connection was broken. Mother Lu then forced her to die and asked Lu You to marry another daughter of the Wang clan.
Tang Wan, whose heart was like ashes, passed on Lu You's engagement letter to Fengchao and gave it back to him. Later, under the arrangement of her parents, she married Zhao Shicheng, a fellow county scholar who admired her, as a continuation.
02. No reason to be an idiot
Zhao Shicheng was the son of Emperor Taizong of Song's grandson Zhao Zhongxiang (赵仲湜), who served as an envoy to the Wudang Army, and came from a prominent family and was handsome. Today, it is a male god-level figure.
However, such a Zhao Shicheng disregarded the world's vision and insisted on marrying the abandoned Tang Wan. Maybe another person, at this time, should be read as "He told me to collect residual hatred, avoid squeamishness, rest in love with the passing water, withdraw from the bitter sea, and realize Lan Yin early." ”
However, he met Tang Wan, who was in love with Lu You. I was obsessed, but I didn't end well. It's like waiting at the airport for a ship sailing through the "Sea of Love", it is misplaced, it is persistent.
But because he loved Tang Wan deeply, he also understood her pain. Perhaps his love was deep enough to pity Tang Huan's infatuation with others. With a heart of tenderness, he warmed this woman who had been hurt.
Everyone thinks that time is the best medicine, not to mention that one is married, one is married, and it is a foregone conclusion. If it wasn't for the creation of people, they happened to meet in Shen Garden that day, and perhaps even they themselves thought so.
In the spring of 1155 AD, the 31-year-old Lu You, because of Qin Juniper's tripwire, failed the Rebbe meeting and went to Shen Garden (a famous Song garden, located in Shaoxing, Zhejiang) to relax, and met Zhao Shicheng and Tang Wan, who were playing in Shen Garden.
The scars of more than 10 years of scabs quickly collapsed at this moment, and the two of them said a thousand words, but they were relatively speechless.
Lu You looked at Tang Wan's departed figure and secretly felt sad, and the scenes of the past surged into his heart. Not long after, a maid brought a pot of wine, saying that it was given by her mother, and Lu You drank the wine sent by Tang Huan, and was even more worried. On the wall was inscribed a poem "Pluto Phoenix Red Crispy Hand":
Red crispy hands, yellow teng wine, full of spring color palace wall willows. The east wind is evil, the joy is thin, a sadness, and a few years away from the rope. Wrong, wrong, wrong!
Spring is as old as ever, people are empty and thin, and the tear marks are red and silky. Peach blossoms fall, idle pond pavilion, although the mountain league is there, the Jinshu is difficult to trust. Mo, Mo, Mo!
03. Rain sends dusk flowers easy to fall
A few years later, the yin and yang were wrong, Tang Huan came to Shen Garden again, saw Lu You's inscription, and was sad, so he and a poem "Baotou Feng Shi Qing Bo":
The world is thin, people are evil, and the rain sends dusk flowers to fall easily. Xiao Feng is dry, tears are broken, he wants to write his heart, and he speaks alone. Hard, hard, hard!
People are everywhere, today is not yesterday, and the sick soul is often like a swing rope. The horns are cold, the night is dark, afraid of people asking, and the tears are happy. Conceal, conceal, conceal!
"Although the mountain alliance is there, the Jinshu is difficult to trust", as a man, Lu You may be able to stop, but in the feudal era when there are many constraints on women, how can Tang Wan's pain be eliminated?
Because of Tang Wan's old love affair with Lu You, there were many rumors in the anecdote. The intricate emotional relationship, the frequent rumors of others, like a big net that binds the three of them. After returning home, Tang Huan's hundred thoughts intersected, and his already thin body could not afford to be sick.
Seeing that his sweetheart was in a state of condition, how could Zhao Shicheng be happy? In the autumn of the same year, Tang Huan died of incense. When she died, could she have the resentment of "Qing Tian Sheng Gui, I am alone to Huang Quan"?
Love words hurt people, and there is never blood.
04. Tie my heart for life
After Tang Wan's death, Zhao Shicheng, who was a royal family member, withstood the pressure and never remarried, living in mourning for his beloved wife, and left with his deceased wife in his 40s.
And Lu You has always lived in endless mourning for Tang Wan. When he revisited Shen Garden at the age of 75, he wrote "Shen Garden Two Songs", which also gave birth to a famous sentence throughout the ages:
"Sad bridge under the spring wave green, once was a shocking photo"
……
"Forty years after the dream has been broken, Shen Yuan Liu lao does not blow cotton."
When he revisited Shen Garden at the age of 82, he wrote down again: Where are the old people scattered and where are they? Empty hanging decadent ink several lines.
In the last two years before his death, he dragged the sick body to Shen Garden several times. Countless times Zhang Huang looked around, but only desolate and sad remained.
Her name was originally Lu You's lifelong thought, but things are people and things, and tears flow first.
In this love injury, it is not only Lu You and Tang Wan who mourn, but also Zhao Shicheng, who has always been in love.
More than forty years of spring has been old, sad and frightened in the dream of tears. Only Shen Yuan refused to grow old, as if he had come to the bridge in the past.
