Wang Zeng, the prime minister of the Song Dynasty, was a great sage who despised his fellow countrymen. He was born in the third year of Emperor Taizong's Taiping Revival (978 AD) and died in the first year of Emperor Renzong's reign (1038 AD). Lian Zhong's three yuan, twice as a phase, sealed the Duke of Yi.
The 69th Chronicle of the Song Dynasty records this: "Wang Zeng, the character Filial Piety, a native of Yidu, Qingzhou. Shao Lonely, Ju Yu Zhong's father Zong Yuan, learned from Zhang Zhen, a native of Yu, and is good at writing. In Xianping, the township tribute examination ceremony department and the court pair are the first. ”
Yang Yi, a scholar of Hanlin and a great talent, saw his endowment and sighed, "Wang Zuoqi also!" ”
Prime Minister Kou Zhun thought he was a genius and interviewed him in the government affairs hall.
OneLü Mengzheng (944-1011), who wrote qiwen such as "Broken Kiln Fu" and "Destiny Endowment", was thirty-four years older than him, and Li Xun (947-1004), known as "Shengxiang" and later became his father-in-law, was thirty-one years older, and Wang Dan (957-1017), the "patriarch of all Germany" Wang Dan (957-1017), who was regarded as a model by Wang Zeng, was twenty-one years older, and the chancellor Kou Zhun (961-1023), who was strong and wise and good at poetry, was seventeen years old and talented. The witty and ironic Yang Yi (974-1020) was four years older than him; Fan Zhongyan (989-1052), a famous minister of the generation of the World of Sorrowful Guan, was eleven years younger than him, known as "Red Apricot Shangshu" and the lyricist Song Qi (998-1061), who wrote his epitaph, was twenty years younger, the iron-faced and selfless Bao Longtu, the "Great Master of Qingtian" Bao Zheng (999-1062), he was twenty-one years old, Yan Shu's dragon-riding son-in-law, the generation name Xiangfubi (1004-1083), who wrote parallel shapes for him, was twenty-six years younger, the leader of the Northern Song Dynasty literary circle and the editor of the "History of the New Five Dynasties" Ouyang Xiu (1007-1072) was twenty-nine years younger...
At the time of his death, Wang Anshi was seventeen years old and Su Shi was one year old; ......
He made a stunning debut in an era of stars.
He is also a dazzling star in that brilliant starry sky!
In the history of China, from the fifth year of Tang Gaozu Wude (622 AD) to the 30th year of Guangxu in the late Qing Dynasty (1905 AD), the history of nearly 1,300 years has produced a total of 914 champions. At present, there are a total of five hundred and ninety-six Wen Zhuangyuan who can be examined, except for those who are controversial, there are only sixteen three-yuan Zhuangyuan, only forty-five officials have become prime ministers, and no more than five people are even three yuan in the middle and the officials are the prime ministers, and he is one of these five people, simply the xueba in the xueba, the dragon phoenix in the dragon phoenix!
When he won the first prize in the township examination, he entered Beijing to prepare for the exam, and when he was full of spirits, he gave a poem of "Morning Plum":
The snow crushed Jolin frozen,
I know that heaven intends to return to spring.
In the snow did not ask and soup,
And open to the head of the hundred flowers.
Lü Meng looked at it and said, "In this life, I have arranged to be the Prime Minister!" "This arrangement is destined for talent, not an organizational arrangement!" Later, sure enough.
At this time, the prime minister Li Xun's family was looking for a son-in-law, and after reading Wang Zeng's poems, he said to his wife: "I have a son-in-law!" Wang Zeng was later appointed as a public assistant! "Later, sure enough.
And Lü Mengzheng also intended to recruit Wang Zeng as a son-in-law. After hearing Li Xun's evaluation, Wang once said, "Li Gong knows me!" Unexpectedly, he became the son-in-law of Li Xun's two daughters: his sister died later, and his sister married to Dinggang.
In the imperial court, he was outspoken, principled, loyal, and even jealous. At the level of the prime minister, he fought with Wang Qinruo, with Ding Zhidou, with Lü Yijian, and more interestingly, he also fought with the emperor and the empress. Emperor Zhenzong was very happy and superstitious about Taoism, and pretended to be a ghost to put gold on his face, but many upright ministers, such as Wang Dan and Wang Zeng, did not approve of it. Zhenzong wanted to make him the envoy of the Huiling Temple because King Ra had gone into the water, but he insisted on giving it to Wang Qinruo, a traitor who had been patting Zhenzong's ass and contributing to this matter. Emperor Zhenzong knew that he did not buy his own account in his bones, so he had no choice but to accuse him of being "different from others", exempting him from participating in the affairs of the governor and demoting him to use it. Fortunately, he was also really appreciated and was soon reinstated as an official. After Emperor Zhenzong's death, in order to maintain the authority of Emperor Renzong and ensure the stability of the regime, he fought with Empress Liu, who seized power and monopolized power, which made the empress dowager very unimpressed with him and found a reason to degrade his officials. His first resignation was the fruit of Empress Dowager Dou.
His backbone, his courage, his danger, are indeed admirable.
The "History of Song" records that "in the summer of the fourth year of Tiansheng, heavy rain. It is rumored that the mouth is broken, and the water is so big that everyone is afraid and wants to run east. The emperor asked Zeng, Zeng said: "The river finale has not yet arrived, the first folk demon, not enough to worry about it." And sure enough. ”
It is also recorded: "In the Celestial Jubilee, the folk rumors that there are demons, such as flying hats, and night fights people." From the south of the Beijing Division, everyone is afraid. He once ordered the door to open at night, and those who dared to advocate were arrested, and there were no demons. "If this is true, Wang Zeng will really rub shoulders with the UFO."
Yang Yi likes to talk and ridicule, and all his colleagues and friends are insulted, even if they joke when they worship their superiors, they can not be wrong, but in front of Wang Zeng, who is four years younger than him, he said: "Yu does not dare to play a drama." "During the period when Wang Zeng was releasing the Tianxiong Army (Daimingfu in Hebei, ancient Weidi), khitan emissaries came and went, and only after the purge of the retinue of soldiers did they pass through this place, and did not dare to shout loudly and wantonly, while passing by other prefectures and counties, they were loud and noisy, and the queues were scattered and could not be restrained. You know, at that time, the Khitan Liao State came to the Song Dynasty, and threatened by force, it was not allowed to be like a robber entering the civilian home.
If a man is self-respecting, then everyone respects him, and Wang Zeng is really not angry and arrogant.
Three
In the fourth year of the reign of Emperor Renzong of Song (1037), the sixty-year-old Wang Zeng resigned for the second time and sentenced Yun Prefecture to the rank of Zuo Shu (左仆射) and a scholar of the Zizheng Temple. It was here that he established his last state school.
In Volume IX of the Collected Writings of Mr. Lai Laishi, it is written: "The sage of Yi Gong is out of reach. Chu Shu Xiang, Zhi Qing Zhou, for Qing Li Xue; Move Wei, for Wei Lixue; Then resign, know Yun Prefecture, for Yun Prefecture School. And the resignation of the three counties to build three schools, Yi Gong's sage, people are out of reach. ”
In the first year of Baoyuan (1038), he died in the post of Yun Prefecture (郓州), at the age of 61, with the courtesy name "Wenzheng".
In the second year of Baoyuan (1039), Wang Zeng was buried with the second lady Cai and Li who died first in Xinzheng, Henan. Fu Bi wrote "Wang Wenzheng Gong ZengXing", and Song Qi wrote "Wenzheng Wang Cemetery Epitaph".
In the second year of the Emperor's reign (1050), Emperor Renzong personally inscribed the inscription "Monument of Jingxian" for Wang Zeng's tomb.
In the eighth year of Jiayou (1063), Emperor Renzong was buried at Yongzhao Mausoleum. The chancellor deserves to enjoy the mausoleum temple, and Wang Zeng is the first.
The prime minister resigned from his post and became another magistrate, starting with him.
The chancellor's inscription, inscribed by the emperor, begins with him.
Prefectures and counties set up official schools, and the imperial court gave them fields and classics, starting from Qingzhou, starting with him.
Before he was born, he was extremely rich, and he was extremely proud after his death.
For millennia, locals continue to commemorate it.
FourDoes anyone think that his life is not exciting enough, and his experience is not legendary enough? Although the Khitan and western Xia were eager to move, and just when he was eight years old, a generation of famous generals Yang Ye sacrificed their lives for the country, and later the Song Dynasty signed a humiliating alliance with the Khitans, but at this time, the foreign enemy seemed to be unable to help the Great Song Dynasty, which was still in its heyday. Until his death, the Song Dynasty still had nearly a hundred years of good times!
The times have created heroes, and this era has given him such a mission, and he has almost completed it satisfactorily! As a Taiping Prime Minister, he can also be regarded as a "White Jade Pillar of the Sky, a purple and golden beam of the sea".
When also? Shipping also? Fate also!
Or is something missing? Less of the great writers, great lyricists, and great essayists of the same era? It seems that he is not worthy of his own fame of Moving Jinghua and Luoyang Paper Gui?
If you think about it, there are only a few reasons. The country is basically peaceful, the career is basically smooth, the family is basically happy, and the individual is basically healthy. In the long river of life, there are no huge ups and downs, no rugged rocks, and no terrifying waves that stir up life; Too much energy was devoted to political affairs and official writing; Or the ideal is not here, but in the world at the same time; Or is the organic balance between Confucianism and Taoism that gives him enough wisdom and open-mindedness? ......
To be fair, he is indeed well aware of the chonghe of the family and the Confucian way of neutralization, and the "hetang matter" mentioned in the poem "Morning Plum" is an allusion to the five tastes of the sage Yi Yin as a political leader, and the "Mixed Things into Fu" and "Dwarf Pine Fu" that have been handed down to this day also have a strong Taoist atmosphere.
The example of his outspoken obstruction of Chen Yao's request to serve as prime minister is also a good proof. Ouyang Xiu said in the article "Oil Seller" that "Chen Kangsu Gong Yao consulted and shot well, and was unparalleled in the world, and Gong Yi was also self-conscious", referring to this person. Chen Yaosuo, Chen Yaozuo, and Chen Yaozhi were all prominent figures on the political stage of the Northern Song Dynasty. Yao Shu and Yao Shu were both Champions and The First, and Yao Shu and Yao Zuo had all served as prime ministers. Three brothers in one door, two prime ministers and one section, two yuan and one jinshi, a very refined family. Therefore, Chen Yaozhi hopes that he can also be the prime minister, so that it will be perfect!
Probably because of the delay in achieving his wishes, Chen Yaozhi said some bad things about the emperor and the empress dowager. Wang once defended: "Ministers and other positions are harmonious, dare not be impartial, but slander people to the extreme, and must not fail to observe." The empress dowager did not believe it, and the king once said: "The merits of right and wrong lie in the judgment of hearing, please use medicine to tell it, the medical prescription is that the medicine has the opposite of the evil, and licorice is the elder of the country, with its performance and many medicines, so the decoction is not used in cold and warm." And the spotted cat is poisonous, and if it is used with many drugs, it will kill people. This test also. The empress dowager suddenly realized that within a few days, Chen Yaozhi had been released from his post.
For officials, people must not be too strong in personality, like licorice, not like spotted cats (spotted scorpions). If the people in power have a strong personality and are so good at writing that they all admire themselves and treat others with themselves, it is a dangerous thing. Either they don't have great achievements in politics, or they have big problems. There are many examples of this opposite!
For people who are literate, they must have personality, extreme enough, romantic enough, otherwise there is no charm, which is also a fool's point of view. Cao Pi's so-called "building articles, the great cause of the country, and the grand event of immortality" is obviously not talking about simple literature, but articles. So he said: "Fu Wen, the original is the same and the end is different, the gai play is yi ya, the book is reasonable, the inscription is still real, and the poetry is beautiful." These four disciplines are different, so those who can do it are also ..."
Between romance and reality, it is really difficult to have both; Different styles are different, and they cannot be generalized. Perhaps, literature and politics are originally two disciplines of monasticism, and have nothing to do with talent. He wrote so many official documents and compiled so many books, but he wrote few poems. Poetry has different talents, poets are unfortunate and the country is lucky? When the individual shines brightly, the whole country is dimmed.
And sometimes, giving up is the fulfillment. He should understand. So, he was willing, just a dazzling star in the brilliant night sky.
FiveHe was deeply influenced by his predecessors in the political arena and a generation of famous ministers Wang Dan, and he never forgot to remember it until he was old. Interestingly, the two not only have similar old and heavy and unobtrusive handling styles, but also have the same official positions and the same life span, even the last ghost of the name is the same, and the final outcome of the two is also the same, except for their own descendants, fellow villagers and specialized researchers, few people know about the two of them.
I once joked with a friend that there are three kinds of chickens in this world: one is to lay eggs without quacking, one is to only crunch eggs, and the other is to lay eggs and quack.
Wang Zeng and they are like this, which is about the first kind. This is probably what Confucius said, "Words are wordless, and deeds are not far away"!
Of course, I tend to gravitate towards the following reason, which is high and low.
Among the poetry and song endowments, those who belong to the bel canto singing method are the ones who belong to the poetry and song endowments. In the Tang and Song dynasties, prose was already popular, but he was still best at it. The first place in the provincial examination was "There is no class endowment for teaching", the first place in the temple test was "Mixed with things into endowments", and the first time he returned to his hometown of Qingzhou, he came to the dwarf pine garden where he was studying that year, and wrote "dwarf pine endowment" in infinite emotion. The three endowments are complete, and they are popular for a while. And the contemporaries of the article everyone, although some of their articles are still called fu, such as "Autumn Sound Fu", "Chibi Fu", etc., but they have long been stealing beams and changing pillars, written into prose!
The more the audience, the greater the impact and the wider the circulation.
High and widowed, self-isolated, of course.
This is called choosing to determine destiny. To this day, how many people can read Chu Ci Hanfu? On the same day, I translated his short article "Dwarf Pine Fu", turned the book to ask for people, and took great pains, and there are still a few allusions that are not known.
Such a person, writing articles is like this, making friends is like this, even who to accompany after death, Wang Zeng will definitely be carefully selected. The "Epitaph" says: "With the tomb without a Mu position, it cannot be buried, but it is changed to Bu Xingyang, but the new Zheng Ji..." There is no suitable place for him in the ancestral tomb of Qingzhou, but Qingzhou is so big, how many feng shui treasure lands, and still can't settle down as a prime minister? Why leave your hometown? Siwang Village, Xuedian Town, Xinzheng City, where Wang Zeng's tomb is located, is the hometown of Zheng Guo's name Xiangzi in the Spring and Autumn Period, and its northwest distance is less than 1,000 meters, and it is also the tomb of Pei Du, the duke of Jinguo in the Tang Dynasty. Among them, the mystery is self-evident, there is no Mu bit cloud, nothing more than a pretext.
Zi Chan, Pei Du, Wang Zeng, the three famous neighbors, in the night sky of history, form a three-son constellation, reflecting each other, shining!
I once asked someone to look for the traces of Wang Zeng in Xinzheng, and a friend from the local department of literature and history replied that his descendants had only lived in Xinzheng for seventy or eighty years, and there were no more of their descendants in this area. When I went back to looking for information in Qingzhou, there was another surprising discovery, such as the General History of Qingzhou, which said that Wang Zeng's ancestral home was Quanzhou!
A check on the Internet shows that Wang was the sixth grandson of Wang Zhenyi, one of the three kings of Kaimin, and his ancestors moved from King Xingcuo of Quanzhou to Qingmeng Village in Jinjiang. Qing Daoguang's "Chronicle of Jinjiang County, Volume 68, Tomb of Tsuka": "The Tomb of King Zeng of the Duke of Fengyi: In the Twenty-Ninth Capital, Taihe Mountain".
In the midst of astonishment, I remembered that Fu Bi's "Wang Wenzheng Gong Zeng Xing" said: "(Gong) tasted jiangzuo, protected the mourning, crossed the beijing mouth, the wind was strong, and the boat please hurry." The matter of going to the funeral must not be postponed, so it is urged to go. "He crossed the Yangtze River to mourn, what relatives are so important and so anxious, they have to cross the Yangtze River in the wind and waves, where to go? Could it be that Wang Zeng's ancestral home is really Quanzhou?
However, the "History of Song" clearly states that he was "a Qingzhou Yidu person", and the epitaph also says: "The public character filial piety, by Yi Min Ba, Fei Fei Tianhan, Xianji Sude, and the tribes have repeatedly migrated, and now they are surnamed by Qingzhou Yidu." The "Xingzhi" also said: "Qingzhou Yidu County Xingru Township Xiushili." ...... The Wang clan was born in Zhou, to the Eastern Han Dynasty, and first lived in Taiyuan... Gong is also a Taiyuan person. His ancestors traveled in Wudi, the late Tang Dynasty repeatedly migrated, the Jin Avoidance Land Qingshe, Suijia. Both Fu Bi and Song Qi mentioned the Han Dynasty king, and both said that his family repeatedly migrated, but did not say the migration route, and jumped directly to Qingzhou to settle down. You must know that the great chaos at the end of the Tang Dynasty was a great chaos in the north, and Jiangnan, especially Fujian, became a paradise to avoid chaos. Where will the asylum seekers?
SevenChecking the "Later Han Shu Hermit Biography", it was found that this Wang Ba was a great hermit with the same name as Yan Ziling and Meng Guang, and many branches of the Wang family actually regarded him as their close ancestor. "Taiyuan Guangwu people also." There are few clear sections. and Wang Mang usurped the throne, abandoned the crown belt, and cut off the eunuch. In Jianwu, he recruited Shangshu and paid homage to his name, not his subject. ...... That's it. Returning from illness, living in seclusion and keeping the spirit, the huts are covered. Conscription, not to the end, to the end of life. ”
Again, there was another Wang Ba, later than the previous Wang Ba, five generations after the Liang people, Taoists, is the ancestor of the three kings of Kaimin. This man, who was Shinto, did the practice in Fuzhou, Fujian Province, saying that his descendants had kings in this place, and then ascended to heaven and went away. This person is included in the "First Biography of the Old Five Dynasties History of The Usurpation", that is, in the biography of Wang Zhenzhi, which also mentions Wang Zhenzhi's brother Wang Zhenzhi.
In this way, aren't the Daoist monks Wang Ba and Wang Zhenyi exactly the elders of wang Zeng in the legend! Is it true? But why didn't the king admit it?
The compilation of the "History of the Old Five Dynasties" began in April of the sixth year of The Song Taizu Kaibao (973 AD), and was written a year and a half later. That is to say, four years after the completion of the book, Wang Zeng was born. Presumably, he must have known what it meant that the Three Kings of Kaimin were included in the "False Column Biography", and also knew the attitude of the Great Song Dynasty towards this family at this time. This may be the reason why Fu Bi and Song Qi said in unison that Wang Zengzu was the Queen of Taiyuan, a Hermit of the Later Han Dynasty, and never mentioned the migration route of the Wang family.
Overemphasized and deliberately avoided, there is no silver here.
The New History of the Five Dynasties is the only privately revised history after the Tang Dynasty set up a museum to revise the history. Judging from the letters written by the compilers Ouyang Xiu to Yin Su, Mei Yaochen and others, he had already begun to write before the third year of Jing You (1036). At this time, two years before Wang Zeng's death, Wang Zeng's younger brother Wang Hao was also serving as an official in the imperial court, as a junior and subordinate Ouyang Xiu, how would he compile the history of the three kings of Kaimin? A check, very coincidentally, sure enough, Wang Zhenyi and the Daoist Wang Ba did not mention a word, very clean. What is more interesting is that this passage was originally called "The Tale of The Tyrant", and now it is called "Min Shijia" in the "New History of the Five Dynasties". Transformed, from a rebel to an aristocratic family, hehe, this is probably a complete reversal of the case, completely correct the name.
Intentionally or unconsciously, the so-called canonical history is often mixed with many fallacies and lies. When Chen Shou wrote the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, didn't he openly ask for bribes? After all, there are too few historians like Dong Hu and Sima Qian, and even they can't help but be confused. Even if we find out, writing like Ouyang Xiu, we should be full of respect. This is the justice of the historian!
In China, which attaches too much importance to archives and history, once you are not born well, or if there is any stain, you will insult your ancestors, destroy your own body, and mistake your children and grandchildren. The question of whether history is innocent enough, how can Wang Zeng be indifferent! Although this branch of their Wang Zhenyi family had a very good reputation in the Fujian area, Wang Zhen knew the evil of future generations, and what did he have to do with himself? Moreover, he only allowed his old Zhao family's yellow robe to be added, so why didn't he allow my ancestors to rise up?
However, when you think of this abominable historical sitting method, who wouldn't go crazy and try your best to change it! Of course it has to be hidden, of course it has to be modified! Well changed, changed well!
Coincidentally, in the history of the new and old five dynasties, it is mentioned that Wang Zhenzhi sent emissaries to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty: the route when he came from the sea, landed in Laizhou, Dengzhou, took the official road, passed through Qingzhou, and then... Who doesn't know that this place in Qingzhou, with its abundant materials and convenient transportation, can be entered or retreated?
Then, we can also conclude in this regard:
Wang Zeng's ancestral home should indeed be Quanzhou, Fujian. In order to avoid the great chaos in central Fujian, wang Zeng' ancestors, a branch of Wang Zhenyi's descendants, migrated along the coastal road during the Later Jin Dynasty to settle in Yidu County, the capital of Qingzhou, and became a large local family.
Wang had tombs in Qingzhou and Jinjiang, either as a tomb of a crown or as a tomb for his family.
Wang Zeng's crossing of the river to protect the funeral should indeed have gone to Quanzhou.
Wang Zeng's descendants moved away from Xinzheng, presumably early due to the invasion of Jin soldiers or fleeing with the imperial court.
If you open the history of the Song-Jin War, you will find that in 1125, the Jin State began to attack the Northern Song Dynasty and besieged Tokyo. At the end of 1126, he captured Tokyo. This was followed by "Jing Kang Shame". In 1127, the Southern Song Dynasty was established, and the Jin State continued to attack, occupying Shandong, Henan and other places. In 1129, the Jin Dynasty penetrated deep into Jiangnan, and the Southern Song Dynasty almost perished. In 1130, the Jin army withdrew north. After that, the two sides fought tug-of-war in Guanzhong and the Jianghuai area of Henan. According to the genealogy of the Wang clan in Hainan, there was also a descendant of Wang Zeng named Wang Yi, who was given the title of Imperial Forest Lieutenant at the end of the Song Dynasty, and was sent to Qingzhou as a county lieutenant, but later because he offended Qin Juniper for fear of being framed, he abandoned his official and returned to Fujian, and then moved to Hainan to settle down. This is probably during the tug-of-war between the Southern Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty.
The Quan Song Poems contain a poem by the Southern Song Dynasty scholar Shu Yuexiang (1219-1298) "Sending Wang Yishi back to Yutang":
The old man now has a son, and he has begged me for an inscription.
Mangroves make people old, and the green lights speak at night.
The poems passed on to his father's business, and he was subordinate to Zhang Wujun.
Wanli Qingzhou Road, Yigong several generations of graves.
At this point, Wang Yishi is undoubtedly a descendant of Wang Zeng, and Wang Zeng's ancestral home is undoubtedly Quanzhou! Otherwise, what did he run to Qingzhou for? What do you do when you go to see the tomb of Wang Yigongzu? Mangroves, should be the mangroves by the sea, Yutang Village is still there, I checked the map of Quanzhou Jinjiang, from Qingmeng Village to Yutang Village, ten kilometers away.
As for this Wang Yishi, it was probably the Imperial Forest Lieutenant named Wang Yi. Li pen, should refer to the big character book. After the Jin Dynasty, the scholars discussed the book, with whether they were good at lishu as the criterion for evaluating the calligrapher, the lishu was the ancient body, the ancient law, the Jin and Tang Dynasties Kaixingcao was the present body, and all the words with the nature of the monument and the ritual must be sealed in the ancient style. The words on the military flag are also routinely sealed.
Therefore, "the poetry letter is passed on to his father, and the pen is Zhang Wujun", which is to praise his poetry and calligraphy, and he is a literati among the warriors, and he is both literate and martial, which inspires my great Song Junwei. In the Song Dynasty, which was a noble and lowly warrior, this was the highest praise for soldiers, and there were many such records in the Novels of the Song and Yuan Dynasties.
NineInterestingly, this Hainan family tree also mentions a message from Wang Zeng's cemetery in Qingzhou: "At the age of seventy-six, Yu Wenzheng, with the Zheng clan, the lady of Fengrongyang County, was buried together in Qingzhou, Shandong. Although the records of Wang Zeng's age and family here are not correct, Shita Village is a real and real place. Located in Gaoliu Town, Shita Village is between the Zihe River and the Beiyang River, the terrain is high and flat, the mountains are surrounded by water, the feng shui is excellent, and there are many ancient tombs in a radius of more than ten kilometers: Tian Qi Taigong Tian He, Qi Hu Gong, Qi Xiang Gong, Qi Huan Gong, Qi Jing Gong, Qi Wei Wang, Qi Xuan Wang, Qi Xiang Wang, Qi Xiang Wang, Meng Xiang Jun... The names of some villages are very ancient: what Qingzuka Village, Zhulu Village, Wang Che Village, Yuan Shang Village, Xiaoling Village, Xingluo Village, etc., it is said that Lianpo Village is the tomb of Lianpo, Fanwang Village is the Qi Mint, and a large number of knife-shaped coinage molds - Qian Fan have been unearthed. And "extenuating" should be the mistake of "river plain" or "river plain", which refers to the large flat plateau between the two rivers. With the long history and frequent wars since the Song and Yuan dynasties, it is inevitable that there will be errors in the genealogical records, but it proves that the genealogy may be true, and it is very suspicious that there is no error.
From the founding of the Tang Dynasty after the fall of the Jin Dynasty after the fall of The High Ancestor Shi Jingyao in 936 to the later Jin Dynasty after the fall of the Khitan in 947, a total of two emperors and 12 years were experienced. If Wang Zeng's family had moved to Qingzhou in the Later Jin Dynasty to avoid chaos, it would have been thirty or forty years since Emperor Taizong was born (978 AD), a hundred years since his death, and one hundred and ninety years since the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty in 1127. If there is a generation of twenty years, his family in Qingzhou is already more than ten generations, how big a family!
Wang Zeng's great-grandfather, grandfather, and father were all posthumously awarded the title of Taishi, and there was also a title of "Gong", of course, the tomb would not be as simple and narrow as before his death, and it was estimated that another cemetery would be chosen according to the corresponding regulations. According to reports, Wang Hao's great-brother Wang Hao died at the age of eighty-one. After his death, of course, he was to be buried in Qingzhou. If the ancestral tomb had not been built or expanded, he would have found another place like his brother. There are too many people, the officials are bigger, and the cemetery must not be changed to another place, otherwise it will not be able to hold it! Therefore, the Shita Village cemetery recorded in the Genealogy of the Wang Family in Hainan is likely to be another cemetery of the Wang Zeng family in Qingzhou. This does not contradict the fact that the Wang family still has a cemetery in Qingzhou Zhengmu, as for who comes first and who comes after, there is no need to worry. Both places are good feng shui, both are places where celebrities come out, and they are also places where celebrities meet after they die. However, Wang Zeng preferred to be neighbors with the names of Zichan and PeiDu, and did not return to Qingzhou.
Wang Hao's descendants migrated around in the chaos of war, and after a long time, it was not impossible to regard him as Wang Zeng. Otherwise, even the spouse's surname would not be mistaken, and the age gap would not be so large, according to the practice of adding two years of age after the death of the ancients, subtracting two years of age for him is seventy-nine, which should be the situation recorded in the family tree of Wang Hao close to the family tree. As for whether it is true, it needs to be further examined. But no matter how you say it, this branch of Hainan is still the family of Wang Zeng.
Therefore, it should be correct to say that later Wang Zeng's descendants moved back to Quanzhou; Later, Wang Zeng's descendants crossed the Qiongzhou Strait south to Hainan Island, which should also be right! If you don't go to the rear, will you go to the front line or the occupied area?! Don't forget, Quanzhou in the Song Dynasty was a world-class port city, equivalent to today's great Shanghai! At the time of the chaos of the soldiers and horses, abandoning the family's business and bidding farewell to the refuge of the ancestors, the children of the car and the horse Xiao Xiao's mother and daughters cried and fled, moving from the south to the north more than a hundred years ago, and after more than a hundred years, with this family, it was staged again, but this time it was from north to south, to south, and then to the south! Life is like a turning, suddenly north and suddenly south. At this time, if Wang Zeng is there, he will be able to write a good poem!
The wang zeng family may not all have the ability to migrate in the side branches of Qingzhou, so it should be these people who stay behind to take care of the ancestral graves or industries in Qingzhou. Those who built crown tombs for the king should be the descendants of these people. Because, Yu Qin (1283-1333), a famous historical geographer of the Yuan Dynasty born in Zhengmu Town, Qingzhou, was born in Si, grew up in Si, and served in Si several times, naturally very familiar with the situation around Qingzhou, in his Shandong geographical history monograph "Qi Cheng", listed more than sixty hills, tombs, and tombs between the Spring and Autumn Warring States and the Jin Yuan, and there was no record of Wang Zeng's tomb, one was that he knew that Wang Zeng's tomb was in Henan, and the second was that he experienced the great turmoil of the Jin and Yuan dynasties, and the Crown Tomb of Qingzhou had been destroyed or had not yet been built. Otherwise he would not have mentioned his name only in the "Characters" volume without mentioning his grave.
In the Ming Dynasty, Yang Yingkui, a native of Qingzhou, said in his poem "Gurudwara Wang Yi Cemetery": "The characters of the former dynasty were homesick, and the merits of the honor were promoted by the world. The West Wind hurt the past, and the Takatsuka was miserable at that time. The poplars chant frost leaves, and the moss spots are dotted with old monuments. Determined who can forget the food and clothing, the lonely grave to worship a miserable. But I don't know whether it is the real tomb of the worshipper or the tomb of the crown, but from the perspective of the sentence "homesickness", it is estimated that it is the former. He once served as the prefect of Nanyang, and he had a good political reputation, and the local people built a shrine to commemorate him. Nanyang is not far from Xinzheng.
Lost all the dynasties, seek the wilderness. Many myths, many legends, maybe just real.
Wang Zeng wrote in the "White Horse Poem of The Sacrifice of Jinling Mu Dafu Xue":
The white horse phiss a bunch of practice, and it is difficult to stumble on it today.
Only traces were left in the snow, and only saddles were seen under the moon.
This is very much like a self-metaphorical poem, his tracks, like this white horse, under the moon in the snow, so hard to find! His story, let others comment!
Fortunately, he has become a beautiful legend!
TenThe dwarf pine garden where he studied in his youth was in the Qingzhou No. 1 Middle School, which was a garden within a garden. Famous for the fact that there are two low, large, coiled and curled giant pines in the courtyard, and also famous for his three yuan, the Song Dynasty is a famous garden. Literati and celebrities from past generations have flocked to here to recite poems and linger here. When Huang Tingjian was a child, he followed his father, who was an official in Qingzhou, through this garden and climbed these two ancient pines. After the Ming Dynasty, it was renamed Songlin Academy, dwarf pine does not exist, and dozens of cypress trees in the Ming and Qing dynasties are still lush and tall.
At that time, I was fortunate to have taught at Qingzhou No. 1 Middle School for more than ten years, and I also lived in the bungalow courtyard adjacent to the west of the college for several years. The sound of books is bright, the waves are strong, the winter snow and spring flowers, the summer rain and autumn clouds, the sunrise and sunset, and the weather is endless. A small ginkgo tree planted in front of the reading desk with the students is now a tall tree, and the students have become the pillars of talent. As a teacher, what could be more honorable and fulfilling than this?
Presumably, Wang Zeng's teacher, Mr. Zhang Zhen, felt even more! Under a thousand years, I seem to be able to feel the richness of the old gentleman's generation of famous Confucians! Famous teachers and apprentices, shining brightly. However, because of teaching a famous student and entering the annals of history, and the name has gone down through the ages, I am afraid that this is also something that Mr. Li did not expect!
In the blink of an eye, I have been away from Yizhong for more than ten years, when in the Pine Forest Courtyard, in front of the reading desk, drinking tea with friends, chanting poems, reading and writing with students, pointing out the river, many past events, as in front of the eyes.
And as long as this courtyard is there, his legendary life will be there. This is exactly:
Where to find the old ruins of Yigong, the flowers and trees in the pine forest courtyard are deep.
The three elements of the three elements were shocked by the world, and the two times worshiped each other in ancient and modern times.
The spirit of pine cypress is exemplary, and the feelings of home and country are encouraged by future generations.
The scenery on the reading table is good, and a song of flowing water is Xie Zhiyin.
