Read Wang Anshi's loneliness from a small order

Wave Sand Order

Song Wang Anshi

Iroh has gone through two decays and has gone through poverty. One is a fisherman and one is a ploughman. If you don't meet at that time, you will grow old as a hero.

Tang Wu occasionally meets, wind tiger cloud dragon. King Xing was only in laughter. Until now, a thousand years later. Who competes with the merits?

Yi Yin was a dowry slave of the daughter of the Xin clan at the end of the summer, and because of his outstanding talent, he was recognized by Cheng Tang, who appointed tang as a state administrator and was able to destroy Xia Jie and establish the Shang Dynasty. After Cheng Tang's death, Yi Yin also assisted the monarchs of the two dynasties and consolidated the Shang regime. Needless to say, Lü Shangzi was the Jiang Ziya who was hooked by the wisher, assisting King Wu in accomplishing the great cause of destroying Xingzhou.

Wang Anshi believes that Yi Yin and Lü Shang are both great talents, and if they did not meet Cheng Tang and Ji Chang, they could only slowly grow old and lose Ruizhi.

Yi Yin and Lü Shang were lucky, they met Cheng Tang and King Wu of Zhou respectively, naturally like the wind from the tiger, like the cloud from the dragon. As for the achievements, with their unique talents, they are only in the lupine scarf, talking and laughing.

Finally, Wang Anshi sighed, until now a thousand years later. Who competes with the merits? He was also the prime minister, and he wanted to be a capable person like Yi Yin and Lu Shang. However, there were no virtuous kings like Cheng Tang and King Wu of Zhou.

Wang Anshi entered the army in the second year of the Qing calendar, he was not a champion of the list of eyes to explore the flowers, only the fourth place, called Chuanxu in the Ming and Qing dynasties. In that era, the township examination could be an official, called Qiu Min. Sun Shan in the famous allusion "Mingluo Sun Shan" won the last place in the township test. Students in the middle of the juju also have to participate in the examination, also known as Chun Min. Generally take hundreds of people, the first few in the examination are called Jinshi, and the back is called Tongjinshi. In this way, it is even more difficult to obtain a civil servant in the Song Dynasty than it is at present. Wang Anshi was able to pass the fourth place, which is enough to see his extraordinary.

Wang Anshi is not at all particular about eating. Even if you are a prime minister, your diet is very casual. It is said that his subordinates told Madame Wang that Wang Anshi liked to eat shredded venison and had been eating this dish at the dinner table. Madame Wang smiled and said that the next time you meet, you will put braised pork in front of him, and you will find that he also likes to eat braised meat.

There is a description of Wang Anshi in the Biography of Su Dongpo. Basically speaking, Wang Anshi does not pay attention to hygiene, and the old man does not like to take a bath or change clothes. Madame Wang took out a robe and assigned a task to Wang Anshi's subordinates, asking him to take Wang Anshi to the bathhouse, and then throw away Wang Anshi's old clothes and put the new robe in the original place, so that Wang Anshi unconsciously changed his clothes. The book seems to only mention the robe, not the pants and underwear, maybe Wang Anshi only wears a robe.

Only a person who is particularly focused on a certain aspect will gradually lose the perception of food and clothing. Wang Anshi should be such a person. I don't think he's really passionate about power. He has his own pursuits, and he wants to be a legend like Yi Yin and Lu Shang. So, he did a change.

The ancient Chinese law changers will not end up too well. Because they moved the cheese of those in power. The earliest was Shang Martin, who successfully changed the law and made great contributions. But the people were abolished, and the whole family was beheaded. Wang Anshi was not bad, thinking of changing the situation of poverty and weakness in the Song Dynasty, although he did not succeed, but after his death, he was given the title of "Wen" by the emperor. There are not many people who can get this title, they are all people with great talents, in addition to Wang Anshi, there are also Zhou Gongdan, Kong Yuan, Zhang Zhao, Quan Deyu, Bai Juyi, Han Yu, Zhu Xi, and Wang Jue. In the Ming Dynasty, with new regulations, people were not allowed to write, and this title became the exclusive title of the emperor.
