Although there are very few historical materials about Wang Xianzhi, we can faintly see the figure of three women.

·

Xi Daomao

People familiar with the history of the Eastern Jin Dynasty know that there was the so-called door valve politics at that time, and several large families were very powerful.

For example, the Wang family represented by Wang Dao, the Xi family represented by Xi Jian, and the Huan family represented by Huan Wen.

There was often interaction between large families, such as Wang Dao's nephew Wang Xizhi who married Xi Jian's daughter Xi Xuan (xuán).

From this point of view, the story of the East Bed's son-in-law does not seem to be very romantic and dashing.

When Wang Xizhi's son Wang Xianzhi arrived, the two families of Wang Xi decided to kiss each other.

Wang Xianzhi married his cousin Xi Daomao, who was Xi Xuan's niece and granddaughter.

It is said that Wang Xianzhi and Xi Daomao had a good relationship, but the two did not come to the end.

There is a story in the "New Language of the World" that wang Xianzhi was seriously ill and repented before his death, and the other party asked him to recall what was wrong in this life, and his answer was:

I don't feel that there is anything left, but I remember divorcing the Xi family.

Nothing else, just that I don't think I should divorce Xi Daomao.

There is one piece of calligraphy that is also related to this divorce case, that is, the "Bong Tie":

Although it is dedicated to the accumulation of years, it can be the joy of the day, and the pain is not exhausted.

Fang wants to be the same as his sister's horse, and to grow old with him, is it not to say goodbye to this!

When the sorrows are deep, why should they see their sisters day and night?

Pitching and mourning, there is nothing left, but it should be a desperate ear!

Although we have been together for many years and have had many happy days, I still feel that I have not talked to you enough.

I wanted to grow old with you, but in the end I separated.

My heart was in a panic, how can I get back to that day and night?

So sad, there is really no way, it is estimated that only after the breath is cut off!

Sima Daofu

▌ Sima Yan, the founding emperor of the Jin Dynasty

Since he was so affectionate, why did Wang Xianzhi divorce Xi Daomao?

Some people say that this is related to the change in the relationship between the Wang and Xi families, and some people say that this is because of the emergence of Sima Daofu.

Sima Daofu was the daughter of Sima Yu, the Emperor of Jianwen, who was also the Princess of Xin'an.

She first married Huanji, but then Huanji had signs of rebellion, so the two left.

After the divorce, Sima Daofu fell in love with Wang Xianzhi, of course, this may not be love.

Wang Xianzhi also resisted, and Yu Gong said in the "Table for Jiang Xue to Let Princess Shang" that "Zi Jing Moxibustion is enough to violate the disaster", that is, Wang Xianzhi injured his leg in order to escape marriage.

Wang Xianzhi tried to escape as a disabled person, but Sima Daofu said, I also want you to be disabled.

The unfortunate Wang Xianzhi left a sick root afterwards, and it is said that his death was also related to this.

Incidentally, Sima Daofu and Wang Xianzhi had a daughter, Wang Shen'ai.

Wang Shen'ai eventually married back into the imperial family and became the empress dowager of Sima Dezong, the Emperor of Jin'an.

Peach leaves

In addition to Xi Daomao and Sima Daofu' two wives, Wang Xianzhi also had a concubine named Taoye.

People guess that perhaps Wang Xianzhi and Sima Daofu were unhappy, which led to such an affair.

It is said that Wang Xianzhi liked peach leaves very much and wrote "Peach Leaf Song" for her.

Later, the "Peach Leaf Song" became a title of Lefu poems and was very popular in the Southern Dynasty.

The Song Dynasty Guo Maoqian's Lefu Poetry Collection contains four Peach Leaf Songs, two of which are like this:

Second

Peach leaves compound peach leaves, cross the river without the need for the maple.

But there is no pain in crossing, and I greet ru by myself.

Third

Peach leaves compound peach leaves, cross the river without waiting for the bridge.

The storm was impermanent, and there was no life to cross the river south.

Some people say that this is the original work of Wang Xianzhi, writing the story of him waiting for peach leaves by the river, so there is a so-called "peach leaf ferry" in later generations.

In "Dream of the Red Chamber", Xue Baoqin wrote a poem "Peach Leaf Crossing Huaigu":

The fading grass flowers reflect the shallow pond, and the peach branches and peach leaves are always separated.

There are many beams in the Six Dynasties, and the small photos are hanging on the wall.

The above are the three gossip related to Wang Xianzhi, and they are not very happy.

It seems that even being born in a family family and being extremely talented is not necessarily a good thing...
