In 944, when China was in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, Lü Mengzheng was born in a family of eunuchs in Luoyang, Henan Province, and his father Lü Guitu served as a resident in the Zhou regime after the Five Dynasties, and was an official responsible for recording the life and life of the emperor. Why did Lü Mengzheng, who was born a prominent background, end up begging for a living? It turned out that Lü Guitu was a widow, and Lü Mengzheng's mother Liu Shi was Lü Guitu's main room, but Lü Guitu favored concubines, and finally drove Liu mother and son out of the house in a fit of anger.
Liu's mother vowed not to marry again, and Lü Mengzheng, who lost his source of livelihood, was in a troubled world with his mother and could only beg for a living, and later the mother and son were taken in by a temple abbot in Luoyang, and when he was a child, Lü Mengzheng even relied on picking up other people's leftover food to fill his stomach, and suffered from the cold words of people around him, it was this kind of growth environment Lü Mengzheng was determined to study hard and determined to change his fate through reading.
Life is not smooth sailing, and the road of scientific research must be full of difficulties for children from the cold family. Lü Meng is participating in many imperial examinations, all of which are named Sun Shan. But he still persevered and insisted on reading hard. The turning point in history came to 977 AD, when Emperor Taizong of Song Zhao Guangyi held an unprecedented imperial examination for the sake of the new dynasty to win over the world's readers. More than 5,300 people participated in the palace examination this time, and about 190 people were admitted, Lü Meng took the exam as usual, at this time Lü Mengzheng was just a normal heart, but this time he won the exam, this year Lü Mengzheng was 43 years old, and Lü Meng, who was favored by fate, began to step into the officialdom of the Northern Song Dynasty with the identity of the champion, and began his life of crazy mode.
After that, Lu Mengzheng's life was like a hanging, and in the year of no confusion, he entered a new realm of life. Emperor Taizong of Song appointed him as the general judge of Jiancheng and Shengzhou. When he resigned to the emperor, the emperor ordered that if there was any inconvenience in handling political affairs, he was allowed to come on a stagecoach to report and give him 200,000 money. After being transferred back to Jingshi and meeting Emperor Taizong of Song's personal campaign against Taiyuan, he summoned him to the palace to meet him, and was appointed as a writer and a straight history museum, and added as Zuo Shiwei. In 980, Emperor Taizong of Song personally appointed him as Zuo Fuque and Zhi Zhi. Soon, he was promoted to the rank of Duguan Langzhong, entered the dynasty as a bachelor of Hanlin, was promoted to Zuo Counsellor and participated in political affairs, and gave him a residence in Luoyang Lijingmen, and finally reached the peak of ordinary officials and successfully worshiped the prime minister. Emperor Taizong of Song can be said to have a grace for Lü Mengzheng, and he has been continuously promoted and promoted. Lü Mengzheng is a person of integrity, great measurement, good knowledge of people, and knowledge of grace and retribution. After the death of Emperor Taizong of Song, because the imperial tomb consumed a lot of money, Lü Meng was paying three million out of his own wealth as a supplement to the imperial tomb, and he also cried on the day of the burial, remembering the grace of the previous emperor.
而吕蒙正最为世人所知的应该是其为了劝诫太子赵恒即日后宋真宗所写下的《破窑赋》，据说此文给太子读后，赵恒变得谦虚有礼，可为劝诫名篇。 我节选其中一部分：“天有不测风云，人有旦夕祸福。 Centipedes are hundred-footed and can't walk as well as snakes; The rooster has two wings and cannot fly a crow. Horses have a journey of thousands of miles, and they cannot go without riding; People have the will to soar to the sky, and they cannot pass through without luck. Gaiwen: In life, wealth cannot be adulterous, and poverty cannot be moved. The article is popular, Confucius is in Chen Bang; Wu Luo is outstanding, and Taigong fishes in Weishui. Yan Yuan's life is short, and he is not a vicious person; Thieves are old, but they are kind. Yao Emperor Ming Sheng, but gave birth to a son who was not a Xiao; Foolishness and stubbornness, rebel against the son of great filial piety. Zhang Liangyuan was cloth, and Xiao He was a county official. Yan Zi was five feet old and was crowned prime minister of the State of Qi; Kong Ming lived in the grass and could be a Shu Han army division. Although Chu Ba was strong, he was defeated by Wujiang; Although the King of Han is weak, he has thousands of miles of rivers and mountains. Li Guang has the power of shooting tigers, to the old without seal; Feng Tang has the talent to ride the dragon, and he has never met it in his life. When Han Xin did not meet, he did not have three meals a day, and when he met him, he had a three-foot jade seal hanging from his waist, and once he decayed, he died at the hands of the Yin people. "Lü Mengzheng put the fate of life together with the fact that heaven and earth naturally cycle, and attributed his wealth from begging in the temple to entering the phase in the future to fate and luck. Some people are rich, some people are poor, but some people go from poor to rich, and some people go from rich to poor. Everything will change greatly at every moment, and people must learn to accept and be tolerant. In the face of power and wealth, we must learn to keep a low profile, and when we are at a low point, we must also calmly face ups and downs. Although the king of Chu is strong, he takes a hegemonic character to make everyone in the world submit. Liu Bang is weak and small, but he has to go to the Han family. The Han general Li Guang had the power to shoot tigers, but he was born at an opportune time, and it was difficult to be a marquis in his life. Feng Tang Yi Lao, has the power to ride the dragon, but the luck is not good, he is always a small lang official. Life is long and short, and birth and death are different. Some people are full of meridians, and they have no merit until they are old. There are talents who are shallow in learning, and they are just starting out, so they will be inscribed on the gold list and shine on the lintel. As the saying goes, laughing at poverty does not laugh at prostitutes, and that prostitute who is not in the flow will also become rich and noble ladies when they come and operate. And the princess of the late Song Dynasty will also become a golden prostitute because of the collapse of the country. The Azure Dragon had no chance, so he had to hide in the small pool. The gentleman had no chance, so he had to succumb to the villain. The clothes are tattered, but you still have to have lofty ambitions. When you have no ambition, you must be content with the status quo, be open in your heart, and do not feel sorry for yourself every day. When the sky is not good, the sun and the moon have no light. When the land is not allowed, the grass and trees do not grow. When the water is not good, the waves are not quiet. When people can't, their fate doesn't work. Be yourself and be in awe of nature.
In 1011, Lü Mengzheng died at the age of sixty-eight. 那个在破窑苦读的少年，走完了自己精彩的一生。
