First, early life
After Liu Yuyao was appointed to Zhi County in Suining, Sichuan (present-day Suining, Sichuan) after the ninth year of Qing Jiaqing (1804), and later moved to Yuechi County (present-day Yuechi County, Guang'an City, Sichuan), Liu Yuyao was born in Yuechi County in the second year of Daoguang (1822). He said in the poem "The Song of the First Day of the Yuan Dynasty": "I was born in Western ShuZhou, and I traveled forward. In the seventh year of Daoguang (1827), Liu Yuyao was reappointed to Zhi County, Shiquan County, Sichuan (present-day Shiquan County, Ankang City, Shaanxi Province), Daoguang died in 1828, and the six-year-old Liu Huannian returned to his hometown with his mother Yuan Shi and his younger brother Fu Coffin. After returning to his hometown, Liu Huannian first read and read from his mother, and then followed the Dacheng County Shushi Ren Liandi (Zi Xingtian) to learn literature, Daoguang Twenty Years (1840), eighteen-year-old Liu Shuzhong Xiucai. In the twenty-second year of Daoguang (1842), due to the fall of his family in the middle of the road and the flooding of the city, Liu Huannian went to Baoding Academy to teach and make a living, and stayed in Baoding for ten years. During this period, Liu Huannian should have participated in the township examination, but due to the unfavorable examination, he did not pass the township examination.
Second, throw pen from Rong, Lianjie Jinshi
In the third year of Xianfeng (1853), the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom set the capital in Nanjing and sent troops to the Northern Expedition, and the monk Gelinqin was appointed to supervise the patrol of the capital, served as a counselor minister, and commanded the troops to surround the Taiping Army. At this time, Liu Qinian, who was unfavorable in the imperial examination, decided to take the road of joining the army to win fame. In the first month of that year, the 31-year-old Liu Huannian resigned from his family and joined the army of the monk Greenqin as a civilian official. After two years, he finally received a minor official for military merits, directly under the teaching of Baoding Province. Liu Huannian did not give up the efforts of the imperial examination to enter the career path, and in the ninth year of Qing Xianfeng (1859), Liu Huannian participated in the township examination and was promoted in the tenth year (1860) in the Enke list (nineteenth place in the second division). He was elected as a Shu Jishi of Hanlin Academy, taught editing, served as a fellow examiner of the huihui examination, and later changed to the Bachelor of Attendants and Bachelors of Attendants of Hanlin Academy (both from the four pins of virtual positions). Liu Huannian was on duty in the South Study As a literary attendant, and because he was in an idle position, he began to meet as a literary friend, and often sang with the same list of jinshi poetry and literature ("Inscription Dragon Tree YaJitu").
3. Lingnan is an official and the prefect of the three prefectures
Folklore has it that Liu Qinian was disliked by Cixi because of his bad looks, and he was demoted from the capital and affected his career. In fact, this is a false rumor, an important condition for the selection of a jinshi as a Shujishi is to look good, and if there is a defect, it will definitely be eliminated. Moreover, the release of Jingguan was a kind of selection system for the Qing Dynasty officials, and the results of the examination of Liu Shunian as a Beijing official (ten years) were still quite good, and in September of the eighth year of Qing Tongzhi (1869), Liu Shunian "Jingcha First Class, named after the will, was used by the Daofu (正四品)." ”
According to the regulations of the time, Liu Huannian also "donated and lost Qian's salary", and was able to reward Hua Ling, and was appointed as the prefect of Huizhou in Guangdong (正四品) with the title of envoy (from Erpin) to Guangdong. Letting the prefect go was a normal appointment, and because of the donation of salary, Liu Huannian also received a relatively high "treatment". However, this place was a little far away, and he was re-elected as the prefect of three places (Huizhou, Chaozhou, and Guangzhou) in Guangdong for ten consecutive years.
Although Liu Huannian was born in Sichuan, he lived in the north for forty years, and was sent to Guangdong at the age of nearly fifty, which can be said to be a great challenge from the living habits. However, after he arrived in Huizhou, he still exerted great efforts to govern the country, and in line with the idea of serving as an official and benefiting one party, he scrupulously fulfilled his duties and punished evil and promoted good. For example, he beheaded the evil forest MaWang; in order to correct the customs, he composed the "Ten Poems of Persuasion to the People"; in the ninth year of Tongzhi (1870), he presided over the compilation of the "Huizhou FuZhi". In the third year of Hui, he won the hearts of the people, and the people sent him a plaque to show their love because of his moral governance.
In May of the eleventh year of Qing Tongzhi (1872), Liu Huannian was transferred to the prefect of Chaozhou, Guangdong. Still taking local tranquility as his duty, he investigated and dealt with the giant traitors and bandits; founded dozens of righteous schools, educated the people's customs, and composed "Chaozhou Persuasion Slang". Although he has been an official for a long time, he has also won the praise of the people of Chaozhou.
In the twelfth year of Qing Tongzhi (1873), Liu Huannian supplemented the prefect of Guangzhou Province, Guangdong Province, with the title of Second Grade. In the seventh year of qing guangxu (1881), Liu Huannian resigned from his official position and lived in Yangzhou.
Fourth, in his later years, he lived idly in Yangzhou Garden
During his time in Guangdong, Liu Huannian became acquainted with many local officials, especially those who were good at poetry. After resigning from the government, he purchased a part of the old garden (East Garden) of the Huang clan (the owner of the garden Huang Zhijun) in Anjia Lane, Yangzhou, and slightly renovated it, turning it into a residence and taking the name of "Yue Garden".
During liu huannian's stay in Yangzhou, he sang harmony with Zhang Bingyan (Noonqiao), Wang Zheng (Yanshan), Wang Jing (Xiaoting), Huang Xixi (Zihong), Wu Bingxiang (Cixiao), Fang Maoyi (Ninzhai), Sun Kai (Driving), and Yao Zhonghai. His poems or chants are lyrical, or he misses relatives and friends, or he feels life, or he gives farewell travels. His poetry collection contains a total of 825 ancient and modern poems and 342 poems, which has important research value for poetry literature and local history in the late Qing Dynasty.
In the seventeenth year of Qing Guangxu (1891), Liu Huan died in Yangzhou Yueyuan and was given to Ronglu Doctor. He was buried in the hometown of Southern Liu Guxian in Dacheng County.
