Loyalty to the state of Yun state
Yan Jianguo
The imperial stele written by the emperor of the Song Dynasty has very few heirs, and the main ones that can be seen today are the "Monument of the Founding Fathers of the Two Dynasties Gu Feng DingZhi" written by Han Qi, the famous minister of Song Shenzong, and then the "Monument to the Great View of the Sacred Works" written by Li Shiyong, a doctor of calligraphy, written by Li Shiyong, the founder of the "Thin Golden Body". Most of the other so-called imperial scholars were attached to the names of their courtiers, and they simply believed that they were true.
Han Qi (1008-1075), courtesy name Zhigui, called himself "Gansuo", was a native of Anyang, Xiangzhou (present-day Anyang, Henan). In 1008, Han Qi's father Han Hua served as the Governor of Quanzhou as Taichang Shaoqing, and Han Qi was born in this year to Han Hua and his maid Hu Shi. Also in October of the lunar calendar of this year, Song Zhenzong sealed Mount Zen in order to protect the peace of Song Jing in order to protect the peace of Song Jing, and when he returned, he was given the title of Qunchen, and Han Hua was promoted to the rank of Counselor. In March 1011, on his way back to Beijing, the newly appointed Han Hua died at jianyangyi (present-day Shayang County, Hubei Province) at the age of 55, and the 4-year-old Han Qi did not know that his father's death was a permanent departure.

After Han Hua's death, the life of the Han family became very difficult, and the past food and clothing became a loan to survive. Fortunately, Han Qi's half-brother Han Qiu was given a small official position by the imperial court, the second brother Han Xuan knew how to manage life, and Han Hua's main chamber Luo Shi was the daughter of the counselor Yan Ji, who relied on her mother's family connections to coordinate family and relatives, so that the Han family could operate hard. Although Han Qi was born to the maid Hu Shi, his wife Luo Shi was very fond of him, and several older brothers also cared very much for this clever little brother, so Han Qi's infancy and youth grew up in a warm and united big family, making his heart sunny and upright. In 1027, Han Qi, who had just turned 20 years old, began to enter the career path and became a grassroots new talent.
(Korean Tombstone)
Han Qi first served as a judge in Zizhou (淄州, in present-day Zibo, Shandong Province), and then returned to Beijing to serve as a judge of Kaifeng Province, a judge of Du Zhi, and a right counselor, and became an expert in financial management, adjudication, and supervision. In 1040, Li Yuanhao, the king of Western Xia, who had been emperor for more than a year, sent emissaries to Kaifeng to ask for the emperor's title, but after Being refused by Emperor Renzong of Song, he sent an army to attack Song Province, intending to coerce the gift by force, and the war between the two sides intensified. At this critical juncture, the 33-year-old Han Qi, who was skilled in strategizing, was stationed in Jingyuan Road (in present-day Pingliang City, Gansu) as the deputy of shangshu of the ministry of ceremonies and the deputy of Shangshu Xia, whose position was xuanhui nanyuan and shaanxi silu jingluo's appeasement and solicitation; Han Qi's identity was a privy councillor and shaanxi jingluo's deputy envoy, stationed at Jingyuan Road (in present-day Pingliang City, Gansu); under han Qi's sponsorship of the life of his entire family. Fan Zhongyan, 52, who had been ostracized by lü Yijian and sent to Yue Prefecture (present-day Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province), was then appointed to Tianzhangge to be transferred to the northwest, stationed at Yanyan Road (鄜延路; present-day Yan'an, Shaanxi).
At this time, the famous generals defending the northwest also included Yanzhou Zhizhou Pang and Weizhou Zhizhou Yin Su, both of whom were strong forces against western Xia. Yin Su discovered the famous general Di Qing and recommended him to Pang Yuan, Fan Zhongyan, and Han Qi, and the wen and martial arts used strategy and the same heart from top to bottom, and after several rounds of repeated fighting, the blood flowed into a river, and the protracted northwest war eased slightly. Han Qi and Fan Zhong drowned in specific tactics, one to take the offensive, the other to take the defensive position, although there were differences, but there was no dispute, Han Qi later adopted Fan Zhong's gradual tactics of building the city, and dragged down the Western Xia army in a protracted tug-of-war, the imperial court relied on the two as the Northwest Great Wall, and the imperial court called the two enemies "Han and Fan" inside and outside the court.
After several years in the battle between the Song and Xia, the personnel and materials on both sides were greatly damaged, and the people's hearts were unstable. Emperor Renzong of Song, who had been on the throne for twenty years and was in his 30s, wanted to change his habits, and under his leadership and the promotion of his old minister Du Yan, the imperial court planned to carry out reforms. In 1043, the old minister who opposed the reform, Pingzhang Junguo, Sikong Lüyi Jian Zhishi, Du Yan was promoted from Privy Councillor to Privy Councillor, and had the power to directly recommend talents to the emperor, so he recommended Han Qi and Fan Zhongyan to return to Beijing to serve, and after the approval of the imperial council, Han Qi and Fan Zhongyan returned to Beijing as Privy Counsellor's deputy envoys in April of the lunar calendar and became Du Yan's assistants; in August, the anti-reform Suffragan Wang Juzheng was promoted to zhixu Prefecture (present-day Xuchang, Henan Province), and Fan Zhongyan was changed from privy councillor to suffragan. From the military to the administrative organs, specifically responsible for the change of law. At the same time, the backbone members were readjusted again, and Fu Bi, who supported the change of law, was made the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, and Ouyang Xiu, Yu Jing, Wang Su, and Cai Xiang were promoted as advisors to solicit key strategies for change. Fan, Fu, Han and others put forward ten reform proposals, which were mostly adopted by Song Renzong, and gradually promulgated and implemented them, and issued them to the whole country.
In May 1044, when the Qingli New Deal entered the offensive, the imperial court changed Du Yan to Tongping Zhangshi and Jixiandian University Scholar and Privy Counsellor, combining administrative and military power, showing Song Renzong's political boldness to change. However, the good times did not last long, and under the opposition of officials such as The Chancellor Xia Chen, Zhang Dexiang, and Chen Zhi, the Governor of the Government, a large number of officials attacked the change of law, and even the eunuchs around Song Renzong said that the new law was unfavorable, and advised Emperor Du Yan, Fan Zhongyan, Fu Bi, and others to be suspected of forming a party for personal gain and endangering imperial power.
In the first month of 1045, Emperor Renzong of Song decided to repeal the new law, and Du Yan, who had pushed for the new policy, deposed Zhiyan Prefecture (知兖州, in present-day Yanzhou District, Jining, Shandong Province), and the core member Fan Zhongyan dismissed the governor from Zhi prefecture (知邠州, in modern Binzhou, Shaanxi Province) as a senior scholar of the Shaanxi Fourth Road, and Fu Bi dismissed the privy councillor With Jingdongxi Road (京東路按抚使使知郓州, in present-day Dongping County, Shandong Province), pushing for more than a year of change abruptly. As for the reform faction being attacked, Han Qi, who was still in the position of privy councillor, stepped forward to fight, but there was no result. In March, Han Qi was also demoted from the imperial court for his reformist faction and his support for Yin Su's opposition to the construction of Shuiluo City (in present-day Zhuanglang County, Gansu Province), and he was dismissed from his position as a privy councillor, and Han Qi was sent out of Yangzhou (present-day Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province) as a senior scholar, and entered the bleak path of exile from the generous court upstart.
In the spring of 1045, thinking that his father had died many years ago and several elder brothers had died one after another, in order to facilitate the sacrifice, Han Qi wanted to relocate the graves from his grandparents to Xin'an Village in Anyang County, Xiangzhou (present-day Shuiye Town, Yindu District, Anyang City, Henan Province). In order to complete this major project, Han Qi wrote to xiangzhou, but the imperial court did not approve it, but only agreed to his request to return to his hometown to bury his ancestors. Time was pressing, Han Qi asked his friend Fu Bi to write the Shinto inscription of his father Han Hanhua, written by Wang Jue, a hanlin scholar and attendant, and Zhangyou Zhi, a talented man who was good at writing jade seals. After nearly two months of busy work, some of the tail work has not yet been completed, so he conveniently went to Yangzhou on April 5 to take up his post.
Han Qi served in Yangzhou for only two years. The previous Wang Kui was a corrupt official who was a good and great official, and because of his close relations with the chancellors Chen Zhizhong and Jia Changchao, he paid a lot of taxes, and although Yushi Bao Zheng had been writing to expose him, he was protected by Song Renzong and the two chancellors, and only changed him to Hongzhou (洪州, in modern Nanchang, Jiangxi).
During his stay in Yangzhou, Han Qi was worried about the people's livelihood, attached importance to education, and became a good official praised by the people. At this time, the 25-year-old Wang Anshi was appointed as a public official in the Judges' Office of Huainan Jiedu, and belonged to the general subordinate officials under Han Qi. Seeing that Wang Anshi was late for work several times, Han Qi severely criticized this subordinate who was not serious and punctual. Han Qi also attached great importance to Wang Anshi's talent, in the autumn of this year, there was a peony in the back garden of the official office, one branch of peony, four branches of each flower, the flowers were red and yellow, called gold wrapped around the waist, which was an auspicious omen for the prime minister, Han Qi invited flowers on the same day to give flowers including Yangzhou Judge Wang Jue, Huainan Judge Wang Anshi, and the passing inspector Yushi Chen Shengzhi, and as a result, the four people who participated in the Yaji all became prime ministers after that, becoming a good story in the literary world that has been passed down through the ages.
Although the backbone of the Qingli New Deal was released from the country, Chen Zhizhong, Jia Changchao, Xia Chun, and others who were already in power were still very jealous of Du Yan, Fan Zhongyan, Han Qi, Fu Bi, and others, and Wu Yu, the new governor who was hostile to the New Deal, was ordered to inspect the Qilu banditry, and he returned to Beijing to slander and say that bandits were not terrible, that Du Yan was in Yanzhou, and that Fu Bi was deeply supported by the people in Yun Prefecture, and that a local force had already formed, which was a terrible thing. Song Renzong was hinted at, and in the first month of 1047, Du Yan, who was already 70 years old, was living idly at Yingtianfu in Nanjing (present-day Shangqiu City, Henan Province); at this time, Fan Zhongyan knew Dengzhou (present-day Dengzhou City, Henan Province) as a matter of giving a letter, and at the invitation of his close friend Teng Zijing, he wrote the famous "Records of Yueyang Lou" at Huazhou Academy; in 1047, Fu Bi was a scholar of the Yin Calendar SeniorIty Hall, Zhi Shizhong, and Jingdong East Road to appease The Identity of Zhi Qing Prefecture (present-day Qingzhou City, Shandong Province), Han Qi, as a scholar of the SeniorIty Hall, zhi Shi Zhong, Jingdongxi Road appeased fubi zhiyun prefecture.
When Han Qi went to Yangzhou to take up his post, he basically did not bring his family. However, when he took up his post in Yun Prefecture, he dragged his family with dozens of people. As their sons and nephews grew up, the economy was difficult to support, so Han Qi, who had a higher official rank and a generous salary, became their eater. Han Qi regarded his nephews and nieces as his own, and all the preferential rewards of the imperial court, he considered his nephew first, and then considered his own son. Han Qi's family arrived by boat from Guangji River, Liangshan Po and Qinghe to the Xucheng Zhishou, although the weather was hot and the journey was tiring, Han Qi still settled his family while working on the busy affairs of Jingdong Road and Yunzhou.
At that time, the flooding of the Yellow River was the first event in Yun Prefecture. Like the previous Fubi, Han Qi led his subordinates who knew how to handle water affairs to investigate Jishui, Wenhe, and Liangshan Po, and although the county town of Sucheng was relocated from a hollow twenty miles away to the high part of Wenyangyuan in 1002, and the residents of the city no longer had the worry of flooding the city, Han Qi still ran around in an attempt to find a good way to control the water and revitalize the agriculture. When he was walking by boat through Liangshan Po Juze, he worriedly wrote a poem "Crossing Liangshan Po":
The giant ze is boundless, and the fasting ship is supported day by day.
Fishermen blow in horror, and water birds carry flags.
Pumi is like a harbor, and the mountains are like Peng.
I don't know the lotus, the day is bitter mosquitoes.
Seeing that the Liangshan Berth in the summer is boundless, the big boat he is riding on is also difficult to travel. The fishing adults heard the shouts of the sergeants and hid in fright, and the birds in the distance flew away when they saw the flags. Dense grass obscures the waterway of the boat, and the distant mountains and clear water are Poyang Lake in the north of the river. People like to eat fragrant diamond horns, but they rarely know that in the hot sun, they are not afraid of mosquitoes and cattle flies biting and picking hard, each soaked in their labor and sweat. As a feudal official, What Han Qi saw was not singing and dancing, sounding and coloring dogs and horses, but accumulating years of floods and the hardships of the people, which showed his political philosophy and high morality in life.
The Jingdongxi Road, where Yun Prefecture was the seat of governance, had jurisdiction over four provinces, five prefectures, and one army, with a large population and a large area, close to the Taihang Mountains in the west, and Ohnozawa, so in the years of famine, the starving people were thieves, and it has been plagued by local security and management. On the basis of repeated investigation and argumentation, Han Qi used to use the method of not being able to catch officials for crimes with a limit of three hundred days, so that the thieves could use the bandits in another case to offset the tasks of the previous case, so that the thieves did not have the pain of being sentenced, they were more active in their work, and the number of public security cases was greatly reduced.
Yun Zhou re-learned, starting from the Eastern Han Dynasty Eastern PingGuo CangWang. The Tang Dynasty Yu people Mu Hanyu built the Chengde Hall. In 1038, the king of the Song Dynasty once sentenced Yun Prefecture to a high position as a scholar of the Senior Government Hall and a left servant, and in order to revive the temple of Yun Zhou, he took the lead in donating Feng Lu and mobilizing the people to build houses, collect scriptures, and set up school fields, making the Yun Zhou Confucian Temple a well-known Confucian leader. Later, in 1014, Zhang Guan of the Yuan, as a scholar of the Guanwen Temple, zheng Jian of 1024, knew Yun Prefecture as a scholar of the SeniorIty Hall, and in the same year, The Emperor Song Ofe was known as a scholar of the Seniority Hall and the pacifying envoy of JingdongXilu, and these courtiers all attached great importance to the development of Yunzhou Temple. Although Han Qi's transfer to Fubi was only a jinshi in 1030, the Maocaiyi examination he took was itself a selection of talented scholars, and Fubi's literary and martial allies were recognized by the world, and in the early years, when Wang was a pacification envoy of Jingdongxi Road, Fubi had served as a judge of Yunzhou, so he also attached great importance to the study of Yunzhou Temple.
Han Qi was appointed as the Governor of Yun Prefecture, and in view of the failure of the change of law, he felt the need for talents to change the political system. He believes that students should be influenced by Confucian classics in their adolescence, so that they can lay a solid foundation for life. As old as you get older, you have the ability to resist intrusion, and even if you have materialistic greed, you can eliminate it by your own concentration. Han Qi's running of a school in Yunzhou can be seen in his poem "Ciyun and the King of Yanzhou To Be Made over Wen Shang":
Although it is difficult to succeed the great talent in the shallow game, the good luck of the hall is also added.
Strange flowers and tiyi new plants, fragrant trees even ke de old planting.
Good and false way form aria, neighbor seal for the treatment of regret and wandering.
Want to ask the singer drunk, do not take a drink before the wind.
Han Qi wrote this poem when he left Yun Prefecture in December of the lunar calendar in 1047. Yushi Wang, who was also demoted in the "New Deal of celebrating the calendar", knew Yanzhou as a tianzhangge to be made, and on his way to Weizhou, he passed through The City of Yuzhou, and in the process of staying, he made a special trip to the temple to study, and wrote what he saw into seven poems, which was given to Han Qi, who was serving in the Chengde Army (present-day Zhengding County, Hebei Province). Han Qi saw Wang Su's hymns and wrote poems in return.
In the poem, Han Qi humbled himself compared with the previous YunZhou Zhizhou, and his knowledge and talent were very low, but after he arrived, he also attached great importance to the construction of temple studies. When Yangzhou came to Yun Prefecture, he also brought the golden peony medicine there and planted them on the earthen embankment south of the school, hoping that the scribe students would study well and serve the country. My friend Wang Su, as a nearby official, can also go to Yun Prefecture to see and tell me what he has seen, you have great talent and are in a low position, it is really unlucky. Think of us once enjoying songs and drinking together in Beijing, and now we have no choice but to go our separate ways, let's get drunk and rest, and don't think about those lost pasts anymore. Although Han Qi's career is not smooth, he is not pessimistic and does not sink, and although his poem cannot be compared with the "Record of Yueyang Lou" written by his friend Fan Zhongyan, who is also in the degrading way, and the "Record of Drunken Pavilion" written by Ouyang Xiu, the full of talent and heroism is still full of words and overflowing, so that people can see the fiery heart.
In the summer and autumn of 1047, the young scholars studying at the Yunzhou Confucian Temple included Liu Zhi, Liang Tao, Liang Yanchang, Liang Yantong, Guo Yuanming, Han Duo, Dong Yuanming, and others, and later Liu Zhi and Liang Tao became prime ministers and became leaders of the "Shuo Party", which shows the effectiveness of Han Qi's running of schools in Yunzhou.

Yoon Soo was dismissed after being exposed for embezzling public funds to repay the debts of his subordinates. Frail and sickly, he was taken to Dengzhou by Fan Zhongyun for recuperation, but because of the accumulation of weight and difficulty in returning, the treatment was ineffective, and he died in April of the lunar calendar of this year. Yoon Soo did not accumulate any property, so Fan Zhongyan and Han Qi paid for the burial of Yoon Soo. In order to let Yin Su's wife and children have something to rely on, Han Qi also wrote to the imperial court to justify Yin Su's embezzlement of public funds, hoping that the imperial court would favor his son, arrange public office or give material help, but the imperial court never agreed, and Han Qi squeezed out money to help Yin Su's family. For a long time, Han Qi helped more than a dozen or dozens of friends.
As a scribe, Han Qi not only liked poetry himself, but also compiled his brother Han Ju's poetry collection Jingyu Ji during his tenure in Yun Prefecture. Han Ju had been imprisoned in Jingxi Road, and dealt a blow to the monk at that time for embezzling money on the grounds of change of fortune, and died at the age of 51 in 1040 when he was in office as an envoy to the two Zhejiang provinces, so it can be seen that Han Ju was born in 990, and he was 22 years old when his father Han Hua died in 1101, which was the age when he could take on some family affairs. In the early years, when Han Ju was judged by Ding's mother Hu Shi in Zizhou (淄州, in present-day Zichuan District, Zibo City, Shandong Province), he had seen some of the poems of his brother Han Ju; when his brother died, he asked han Zhiyan, the third son of his nephew Han Ju, to collect and save manuscripts, which were still named "Jingyu Collection". The brother has passed away, and the text shows that Han Ju consciously assumed the responsibility of raising and educating his children and nephews.
Han Qi served in Yun Prefecture for only half a year, and in December of this year, because Ming Ho of the Zhen Shou Cheng De Army returned to Beijing to serve as a governor, the imperial court transferred Han Qi to the Zhending Road pacifying envoy and Zhi ChengDe Army, and once again began his new journey to protect the border and the people. In January 1048, after reaching the post of Dejun, Han Qi wrote to Tell Du Yan about his appointment, and his right-hand man, at the age of 30, had been transferred to the local governor of the three pacification envoys, and Du Yan wrote poems praising and encouraging. Seeing the poems of the elders, Han Qi wrote a poem as a thank you:
The transfer marshal really fixed the rhyme to answer to the government Du Gong
Han Qi
Changshan painted the wild straight sky street, how to pay the weight is not talented.
The Prancing Horse dared to resign and run, and Han Qiang had come forward.
Discipline in the military is hard work, and Lin Xiazhu is proud.
Leading Enxuan has no way to go, and the wind and moon are wandering alone.
Changshan Shi refers to the Northern Yue Hengshan, which is the hometown of the famous general Zhao Zilong of the Three Kingdoms, because the name of Song Zhenzong was avoided, so the Song Dynasty scribes called Hengshan Changshan, which shows the meticulousness of Han Qi's poetry for writing. Here, which separates Hebei and Shanxi, high into the clouds, is the town of Sanguanxiong, which must be fought over by soldiers, and the imperial court has paid such an urgent strategic place to itself, and Han Qi, who is only 41 years old, feels pressure. Lead the sergeant to train seriously, face the threat of the Liao State and Western Xia, and actively prepare for a counterattack. It is necessary to straighten out military discipline, reward the good and punish the inferior, share weal and woe with the vast number of officers and men, look forward to the day when the enemy's imperial court has been awarded soldiers, and think that it is difficult to obtain the results of the battle for a while, and think about wandering alone under the moon.
Han Qi served on Zhending Road for only four months, and in order to strengthen the border garrison, the imperial court adjusted the northwest division, and newly established the four roads of Weizhou, Yingzhou, Zhenzhou, and Dingzhou, and Han Qi was sent to Dingzhou, which directly bordered the Liao state in April of the lunar calendar in 1048, and served as the governor of Dingzhou Road and the appeasement envoy and zhiding prefecture, becoming the military and political governor of Dingzhou Road. Han Qi served in Dingzhou for five years, which was the most brilliant period of his local service, he reorganized the army, and the Dingzhou horse infantry became a strong force against the enemy; he attached importance to education and set up schools; in the past, the people of Dingzhou were still martial and extensive, and after having temple studies, people began to become civilized and polite; whenever there was a disaster, Han Qi first opened an official warehouse to help the people, and people began to live and work in peace and contentment. Many of Han Qi's well-known stories of strictness, love of soldiers, and great virtue of saving the people are more than half related to Dingzhou.
In the first month of 1053, Han Qi was transferred from Dingzhou to serve in Hezhou (present-day Jingle County, Shanxi Province), and when the people of Dingzhou learned of it, they rushed to block the prefecture and prevent Han Qi from leaving, and Han Qi could not leave when he saw that he could not leave, so he persuaded the people to go back, saying that he would not leave Dingzhou. After the people returned, that night, Han Qi secretly led his entourage out of Dingzhou, and the next day, when the people came to see Han Qi again, they found that Han Qi had left without quitting, and people cried and lost their voices to remember this "Han Qingtian".
Han Qi served as an envoy of Wu Kangjun in Hezhou (present-day Taiyuan, Shanxi) until February 1055, when he was transferred to his hometown of Xiangzhou due to a physical illness. Later, he entered the capital and in August 1056, he was appointed privy councillor and became the supreme commander of the army. In June 1058, he was appointed as a scholar of Tongzhongshu Menxia Pingzhangshi and Jixiandian University, and became the prime minister. Born in 1010, Song Renzong was two years younger than Han Qi, and after the early death of His Crown Prince Zhao Xin, he had been looking forward to his son until his old age, and even fainted many times in his later years. At the end of his life, Song Renzong renewed to be a shoucheng king, so in 1058, he quietly arranged for Fu Bi to be the chancellor and Han Qi to be the deputy minister, step by step to open the banner of reform and strength. In view of the lessons of the "New Deal for celebrating the calendar," this reform did not make a big splash, but was pragmatically implemented step by step, such as reforming the examination method, strengthening the assessment of officials, and reforming the tax law.
Portrait of Han Qi
In March 1061, Fu Bi Ding's mother left his post, Han Qi became a tongzhongshu menxia Pingzhangshi and Zhaowenguan university scholar, became prime minister, he began to cite Ouyang Xiu, Wu Kui as the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, Cai Xiang as a scholar of Hanlin, Wang Su as a privy councillor Zhi Kaifengfu, etc., with the arrival of these backbone forces, some of the policies of the "Yanyou Reform" were implemented. In the later process of Emperor Yingzong's appointment and Shenzong's succession, Han Qi proceeded from the overall situation and successfully completed the excessive throne, so even though in the subsequent "Xining Transformation Law", Han Qi opposed the urgent reform of Shenzong and Wang Anshi, but after his death in Xiangzhou at the age of 68 in 1075, Song Shenzong wrote an inscription of "The Two Dynasties Gu Feng Ding Zhi Yuanxun", praising Han Qi as a "minister of the DingZhi Yuanxun" for many years, saying that his life's heroic name was enough to compare with the Tang Dynasty's sage Yao Chong, and the imperial court posthumously awarded Han Qi the title of Shang Shu Ling (尚書令谥). And accompanied by the temple of Song Yingzong.
Han Qi's subordinate in Dingzhou and the longtuge zhi scholar Chen Zhan wrote the "Tomb Inscription of the Song Dynasty Situ and ShiZhong's Gift of Shangshu Ling Wei Guozhong", the Jixian Academy scholar Song Min Qiu Shu Dan, the famous XiangWen Yan Bo Seal Cover of the Taishi and The Attendant, the Taichang Cheng Li Qingchen on behalf of the emperor to bring pigs and sheep to the Lingtang to worship, and the eunuchs Zhang Maoze and Zhang Huaide personally participated in the funeral and burial matters, which is the highest specification among the funerals of the Song Dynasty ministers, and it can even be said that this is the only case. It can be seen from the excavation today that Han Qi's epitaph weighs 3 tons, is 1.55 meters long and wide, and is 0.26 meters thick, which is the largest epitaph in China found so far; the inscription has a total of more than 6,000 words, and it is also one of the epitaphs with the largest number of words found in China. The largest and the most, the stone and the English name are the same, fortunately.
After Han Qi's death, many scribes who admired his heroic name wrote articles to commemorate it, such as Ouyang Xiu once lamented: "Tired of Ouyang Xiu, how dare you hope for Han Gong." A hundred Ouyang Xiu could not catch up with one Han Qi, unless Ouyang Xiu said this himself, who would dare anyone else?" When Han Qi was alive, the people of the prefectures and counties where he served commemorated him and regarded him as a god; when he learned of his death, Dingzhou built his memorial ancestral hall, and the cries of the people were like thunder in the sky, which lasted for several days before gradually subsiding, and Sima Guang, who came to serve here, wrote an article to record this grand event.
Han Qi's family style is simple, the godson is good, his eldest son Han Zhongyan was too often straight dragon Tuge when Han Qi died, knowing that his father liked the articles of the talented son Su Shi, so he asked for a text for his deceased father, Su Shi took the title of "Drunken Bai Tang" as the title, through comparison with the Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi, praised Han Qi for maintaining the integrity of poverty and happiness throughout his life, and was a protracted sage like Yi Yin and Zhou Gong, and he wrote this commemorative article with tears in his eyes. Han Zhongyan also sorted out his father's anthology "Anyang Collection" so that future generations could know his people through his writings. Han Zhongyan later achieved the phase of Shangshu Right Servant Shooting, Zhongshu Shilang and Left Servant Shooting, and was a famous minister during the Shenzong and Huizong periods, who fought against the powerful ministers Zeng Bu and Cai Jing, and was a bitter supporter before the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty.
In the "Twenty-four Meritorious Heroes of Zhaoxun Pavilion" portrait sacrifice during the Southern Song Dynasty, han qi and Han Zhongyan's father and son who entered the list of the two Song dynasties were Han Qi and Han Zhongyan' father and son, which shows the loyalty of Han Qi's first door; during the Southern Song Dynasty, Han Qi's great-grandson Han Nongxu was also a famous person who tried to revive, but because of his impatience and failure, he became the object of grief stigmatized by the literati, and his grandfather Han Jiayan was Han Qi's young son, he once married the third daughter of Shenzong as his wife, and was a standard imperial relative, which shows the honor and continuation of Han's family in the two Song Dynasties.
Han Qi's descendants are numerous, famous people such as clouds, meritorious service in the country, such as the modern mother Song Qingling's father Song Yaoru's real name Han Jiaozhun, the family tree records as Han Qi's descendants, he was inherited to the Song surname uncle before changing the Song surname, so the three sisters of the Song clan and the three brothers of Song Ziwen are actually surnamed Han not surnamed Song, the creation of people, many things we think we see is the essence is actually the most superficial skin. The tomb of the Han Qi family was in danger of being demolished in 2008 during the construction of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, and premier Wen Jiabao was able to relocate it as a whole. Because of insufficient funds in the later period, it has been in an embarrassing position of stopping construction and construction, which is very criticized by the advocates of traditional culture.
Han Qi once warned his children: "It is easy to protect the first festival, but it is difficult to protect the late festival." He has always told himself and his children to be "not ashamed of the old garden and be thin in autumn, and look at the yellow flowers and evening fragrance." The yellow flower evening fragrance has become a warning sentence for future generations of Zhengchen to encourage themselves.
In 1072, Zeng Gong was appointed to Zhizhou of Qizhou, and on the way to his post, he passed through Xucheng, Yunzhou, and Shao Kang, a scholar of the Senior Government Hall, was then a disciple of Yun Zhou, Zeng Gong was a disciple of Ouyang Xiu, and Shao Kang was a disciple of Fan Zhongyan, all of whom were Han Qi's juniors, so they walked in the YunZhou Confucian Temple, remembering Wang Zeng and Han Qi's education in Yun Prefecture, and could not help but be amazed, Zeng Gong said in the "New Hall of Yun Zhou": "Not long as Lin Quansheng, Tianzi now thinks of the old scholars." ”
After another five years, Lü Gongru was known as the Right Counselor, his second brother Lü Gongbi had served as a privy councillor and Han Qi was in the same dynasty and was a child's family, Han Qi's eldest son Han Zhongyan's wife was lü Gongbi's daughter, Su Shi was in Xuzhou to report to Yun Prefecture, and hoped that Jingdong would pacify Lü Gongru, his friend Xian Yu Zijun, the elder Li Shizhong, and others, he lamented in "He Xian Yu Zi Jun Prefecture Xintang Yue Yue Night Two Songs": "Prosperity is a dream, loneliness and two glories. At this time, Su Shi was only 41 years old, and if he did not recall the old affairs of Wang Zeng, Han Qi, and Wu Kui, Su Shi, who still had the ambition to serve the country and the people, would have such a complicated mood.
Relocated Han Qi
Han Qi was only in Yun Prefecture for half a year, and it was only a fleeting moment in the long river of history. Time is vivid because of the waves, and life is wonderful because of the material desire. In order to let this first sage of the Song Dynasty shine on future generations and discipline himself, we can do more for this sage, right?
