As a great talent in ancient times, Tang Bohu has always been highly sought after by modern people. Whether it is not a paper or a scholar is very outstanding, how can such a brilliant person not be an official? In fact, Tang Bohu has been extremely intelligent since childhood, and he has a bright future with the first place in the examination and a bright future with the first place. But he did not want to have two bad lucks, which directly led to his hopeless career, and finally sent love to calligraphy and painting to live his life.
The first doom: the doom of scientific expedition fraud
At that time, Tang Bohu was full of vigor and vigor and successively took the examination for Xiucai and Juren, but he did not expect that when he participated in the scientific examination, there was a landing xiucai who reported Cheating in the Tang Bohu Township Examination, and after the investigation of the imperial court, it was partially true, and he was disqualified from participating in the examination, and was assigned to charge the army, and went to Zhejiang to become a petty official with no grade. Tang Bohu was already a matter of ten to nine stability, so why was he involved in a fraud case?
It turned out that Tang Bohu and Xu Jing privately asked to see the chief examiner Cheng Minzheng and asked for an inscription for their deceased relatives with heavy money. Who knew that the examiner gave the examination questions to the two people, and as soon as the results of the test came out, Tang Bohu took the first place, and Xu Jing also won the test. The candidates who failed the list were upset and stabbed the matter to the imperial court. The Records of Emperor Xiaozong of Ming records that in the twelfth year of Hongzhi, Tang Yin was involved in the cheating case of the imperial examination, and the Hongzhi Emperor ordered a strict investigation. Tang Yin was eventually convicted on the grounds that he had paid bribes to the chief examiner Cheng Minzheng, and had been stripped of his citizenship and made a minor official.
The second bad luck: mistakenly boarding the Ning King ship
Because Tang Bohu had a real talent and practical learning, many high-ranking officials and nobles were more appreciative, and even the king of Ning at that time spent a lot of money to invite Tang Bohu to become an official. Tang Bohu, who originally thought that he had cut off his career, thought that the opportunity had come, but with the rebellion of King Ning, Tang Bohu was included in the party of King Ning. At this time, Tang Bohu was useless even if he regretted it, fortunately, at this time, Tang Bohu was in a hurry and suddenly "went crazy", which was spared. After experiencing this incident, Tang Bohu was notorious, and there was no hope of becoming an official.
After experiencing one blow after another, Tang Bohu has changed from his previous vigor to complete despair, and it can be said that Tang Bohu has a talent but is hindered by bad luck, which is also his personal destiny. Losing the basic conditions for becoming an official, the whole person is very decadent, and even abandons his wife for this reason.
After being shocked, Tang Bohu returned to his hometown, although he was no longer involved in his career, but his calligraphy and painting skills were superb, and many literati and scholars, dignitaries and nobles came to visit.
This is also a loss of watermelon to pick sesame seeds, and Tang Bohu in his later years relied on his own craftsmanship to eat, which can also be regarded as having no worries about food and clothing. He died at the age of 54.
