Did Tang Bohu order autumn incense in the end? What about ancestral family affairs? Is it really born in the year of Yin, the month of Yin, the day of Yin? What happened to the field fraud case? What about the four talents? We may wish to explore Tang Bohu's life through these five propositions!
Will the door after Tang Bohu?
(Tang Jian)
Tang Bohu is known as the "Four Great Talents of Jiangnan", a talented, top-notch intellectual, and a proper literary and artistic youth. Tang Bohu's ancestors also had unlimited scenery, during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Tang Bohu's ancestor Shangguan Zhi Zai stabbed shi, which was very popular, and a man named Tang Jian appeared during the Sui and Tang dynasties.
Tang Jian sounded a little strange, and the work he did was not small, following Li Shimin Taiyuan to start the army, conquering the world and the change of Xuanwumen, and becoming one of the "Twenty-four Heroes of Ling Yan Pavilion" in the Tang Dynasty. This list of heroes is not small, there are many of our old acquaintances, such as Qin Qiong, Wei Chigong, Cheng Yaojin, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruqian, eldest grandson Wujie, etc., it can be said that the gold content is quite high!
In the Ming Dynasty, although Tang Bohu's family lineage was not as good as his ancestor Lafeng, it was not bad. In 1449, the Tumu Fort Rebellion broke out, 200,000 Ming troops were defeated by the Mongols, Ming Yingzong was captured, and Tang Bohu's grandfather was also killed in this battle.
Born in the year of Yin, The Month of Yin, the Day of Yin?
This is a gossip about Tang Bohu that everyone is more familiar with, because Tang Bohu's real name is Tang Yin, and Bohu is his word, so it is said that he was born in the year of Yin, the month of Yin, and the day of Yin, and can only be half right. Tang Bohu was born in 1470, the year when Ming Xiaozong, the most accomplished emperor of the late Ming Dynasty, was born, and 1470 was indeed the year of Yin, but the yin moon yin day yin time was unreliable. Tang Bohu had a younger brother, Tang Shen, who was born in Shen Nian, which shows that Tang Yin is indeed related to his birth in Yin Nian.
In 1470 AD, judging from the Zodiac, it belongs to the Year of the Tiger, and the word Tang Bohu must also be related to this genus. From this point of view, is Tang Dad and Tang Ma's name too casual? But it's also easy to hear. If you name the children and don't want to turn over the "Book of Poetry" and the "Kangxi Dictionary", this routine of Tang Bohu's name may as well be used, which can be called a small magic trick to take the name!
True or False Fraud Cases?
In 1494, the 24-year-old Tang Bohu won the first place in the Zhongxiang Examination, so posterity also called Tang Bohu Tang Xieyuan! However, when he later participated in the examination, he was involved in a scientific expedition fraud case, was removed from the list, and has since had no connection with the scientific expedition.
Involved with Tang Yin in this scientific expedition fraud case, there is also a move called Xu Jing, Xu Jing has a very famous descendant, that is, the famous tourist Xu Xiake. Whether Tang Yin participated in the examination fraud did not have a real hammer, but there was something improper, and the way the imperial court punished it was also to play fifty boards against the whistleblower, the chief examiner and Tang Yin, Xu Jing, and so on.
Looking at the entire process of handling the case and Tang Bohu's subsequent situation, we can draw a conclusion that Tang Bohu most likely did not cheat in the scientific expedition, but there was indeed something improper, the handling of the imperial court was not excessive, and Tang Bohu was not too unjust. After all, the emperor who reigned at this time was exactly the same year as Tang Bohu, and was known as the first Ming Emperor in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, and opened the Ming Xiaozong of "Hongzhi Zhongxing".
Here we add that two major events have occurred in the past two years, which can be said to have completely changed Tang Bohu's life. First, in this case of scientific expedition fraud, Tang Bohu has never had a chance to do so, which can be imagined as a blow to an ancient intellectual. Second, in the same two years, Tang Bohu's father, mother, wife, son and sister died one after another, and the family road began to decline, after all, a big artist like Tang Bohu, it is unrealistic for you to let him go to financial management. The failure of the scientific expedition and the death of his family can be said to be a double blow to Tang Bohu's spiritual world and material foundation, and an important turning point in Tang Bohu's life.
What about the four talents?
"The Four Talents of Jiangnan" is Tang Bohu's most well-known name, in fact, Tang Bohu has two major labels. One is from the perspective of painting, Tang Bohu and Shen Zhou, Wen Zhengming, Qiu Ying and called "Ming Four Families", and the second is from the perspective of poetry, Tang Bohu and Wen Zhengming, Zhu Zhishan, Xu Zhenqing and called "Wuzhong Four Talents", which is what we often call "the four talents of Jiangnan".
But don't blindly follow the stars, the "four talents of Jiangnan" are not all mercurial people, Zhu Zhishan and Xu Zhenqing's appearance is quite low, Xu Zhenqing is also ostracized in the official field because of his "ugly appearance".
In the scientific expedition, except for Xu Zhenqing, the other three talents were more miserable than one. Tang Bohu won the lift, but he was removed from the examination. Zhu Zhishan participated in the examination for many years and lost, and it was not until his son passed the examination that Zhu Zhishan gave up. Wen Zhengming was even more miserable, taking the exam for 9 consecutive times, falling behind the second time, and finally had no choice but to give up. The unsatisfactory performance of the four talents in the scientific expedition is also a joke made to us by God!
Does Tang Bohu have a little autumn fragrance?
Before answering this question, let's first look at Tang Bohu's life temperament. The 24-year-old Tang Bohu took the township exam, and before that, he had to have a township-like qualification exam, and in this exam, Tang Bohu also released himself in the nightclub. The chief examiner was very disgusted and decided to disqualify him, and finally at the request of Wen Zhengming's father Wen Lin, Wu Kuan and other celebrities, the chief examiner released Tang Bohu.
Tang Bohu was more liberated after the examination, "Nightclub is my home" can be said to be Tang Bohu's motto. Tang Bohu's life habits, even his good friend Wen Zhengming could not see it anymore, and wrote a letter to admonish him. However, Tang Bohu did not care about the advice of his good friend, but was very angry, and once broke off relations with Wen Zhengming.
Knowing this, let's take a look at "Tang Bohu Dian Qiu Xiang", which records a historical record of Tang Bohu's affair similar to this story, but there are also some differences. Tang Bohu did take a fancy to the family's mane in the middle of the game, and eventually disguised himself as a servant to blend in, and then directly eloped with the mane. It's just that the owner of this house is Hua Xueshi instead of Hua Taishi, and the mane is not called Qiu Xiang but Gui Hua.
After the defeat of Koka, Tang Bohu was completely attached to the landscape and wine and the poetry of poetry, and after the death of his family, his family fell in the middle of the road, and it was obvious that Tang Bohu's life as the "king of nightclubs" would become more and more difficult, and the truth was the same. In the second half of his life, Tang Bohu was very embarrassed in life and made a living by selling calligraphy and paintings.
In 1524, Tang Bohu died at the age of 54. However, Tang Bohu's talent and spiritual and cultural heritage left to future generations are worthy of the titles of "Four Ming Families" and "Four Great Talents of Jiangnan"!
