Wu Qi (1619-1694), Ziyuan Ci, QiYuan, also known as Tingweng, was a native of Jiangdu in the Qing Dynasty.
Wu Qi is young and brilliant, and at the age of six, he was able to write poetry, and composed "Mountain Yin": "The mountain stream is clear and shallow, the mountain is red, and the anti-song and xiaofeng are sung." If you look back at the world, it is better to indulge in this mountain. It can be seen that its knowledge has been outstanding. Later, the sentence "Tell the wine to the east wind and plant a double red bean" was recited for a while, and the world called it "red bean word person".
Wu Qi's family was poor when she was young, and when she was studying in Kangshan, she was famous for her academic progress and literary benefits, and she was valued by many famous scholars. In the eleventh year of Shunzhi (1654), he was recommended to the capital by the Ming Dynasty and was awarded the title of Zhongshu Sheren of the Hongwen Academy. In the fifteenth year of Shunzhi (1658), when he was the head of the military department, he was ordered to be the legendary "Zhongshu Jiji" of Yang Jisheng, who was the former Ming impeachment power Yan Song, which was appreciated by the Shunzhi Emperor, that is, Yang's former official wu selection division Wailang was awarded Wu, which was a good story for a while. Later, he was promoted to the ministry of Engineering Tunda Shiro naka. In the fifth year of the Kangxi Dynasty (1666), he was informed of the affairs of Huzhou in Zhejiang.
Huzhou is located in the south of the Jiangnan, although the mountains and rivers are far away, but the countryside is big, and the wind of dancing and informing is particularly hot. In the face of this reality, Wu Qi later talked about the mentality at that time in the text: "When a certain person was ordered, he swore not to do anything with it, got off the bus, did not hesitate, did not hesitate, did not hesitate to do the truth, and did his best to create a great wound", "to get rid of adultery and get rid of it, to go to the violence and lead first, so that the rabbits were confused, and the birds were killed and burned."
As soon as Wu Qi arrived at his post, he was not afraid of adultery and violence, did not lure for profit, thwarted the strong, and punished bandits. At that time, there were traitors Wang Shi and Wang Chun who committed crimes in the localities, and the great officials rushed to investigate, because "the party and the disk exchanged thousands of people, and they did not dare to do anything." After Wu Qi learned about the situation, he acted decisively and vigorously, and ordered him to be arrested and killed. This time, the people's hearts were very happy, and tens of thousands of people in the county were watching, and the incense was burned on the lake, and the ashes were piled up. After that, he made a big fuss and made a big fuss, cursing the fierceness of Ling lake, chasing the violence of Nanxun, capturing the party of West Lake, and killing the evil of Shengshe, and for a time the local public order and social atmosphere were greatly improved. The people were grateful for their kindness, and on the day of Wu Qi's birthday, the father and the old children filled the streets and overflowed the alleys, cooked sheep and walked in the hall, and tens of thousands of people came to wish, which had never been done before.

Wu Qi is in Huzhou, and also respects the former sages, pays attention to talents, and draws in the class. The reclusive poet Sun Taichu was buried in the foothills of Guiyun Nunnery, and after a long time the tomb collapsed, Wu repaired the tomb for him, and built the "Taibai Pavilion", and also asked Wu Meicun to be a literary jizhi; the martyr Ling Zhongjie, because of his poverty, had only been confined to shallow soil for twenty years, and Wu donated funds to camp his humble and sealed the tree; he also rebuilt the Six Guest Hall, built the Nine Sages Ancestral Hall, and tried his best to restore and expand the cultural relics to inherit its literary style and elegance; the test county duoshi, all those who asked for help were not allowed to enter, and the cold door after the film was long, and Jinjin was honored for it, and it would make some achievements. Therefore, his benevolent benefactors were invincible, and the students and gentry once erected a "monument to the soldiers" for them in the Di Cui Xuan of Da Nang Mountain.
Huzhou scenery
Wu Qi guarded Huzhou, in the leisure time of the government, he also took his friends as his life, articles as sleeping food, and the wind and currents, and chased after the ancients. He often gathered with the literati at li gongxuan's six guest halls, repaired in the ai shan terrace of the county garden, and drank in the Pavilion of The Wazun of Da Nang Mountain. At that time, "the screen goes to the donkey, the clothes are undressed, and the harsh etiquette is omitted", "the split note rhymes, the bowl is urged to hypnotize", "the song of the waves, the sound of the forest". The tourists who passed by were all amazed, and thought that "the gods traveled from the three islands and occasionally gathered here", or that they thought that "the people of Ji and Ruan made a trip to the bamboo forest".

Although Wu Qi has only been in Huzhou for three years, he has no interest in profit and no harm, because of his multi-wind strength, shangfeng festival, and good style, he is known as "three winds too guarded". It was such a talented and good official, although he was bent on governing and asking for the people's lives, he ended up being ridiculed, framed by people, and jealous of shangguans, and was dismissed from his post and returned to his hometown in the eighth year of Kangxi (1669). At this time, "although the gentlemen of Huzhou were in tune with the system of government, the impeachers also repented, but there was no time."
Wu Qi was dismissed from his post and returned to the field, but he was too poor to govern, and he lived in Gusu for several years. Huzhou scholars, please return the county, Wu Junli thank you. After returning, there is no fixed place to live. First, his son-in-law built the south gate of Yangzhou, known as the "Pavilion between Heaven and Earth". He moved to the Abandoned Garden of the Zhao Family, which was purchased by a friend in Yangzhou Pink Makeup Lane. Because there were many people who sought poetry, he proposed to plant flowers and trees in the garden as a pen, and to become a forest in a few months, known as the "seed word forest". Then there is the barracks in Huangzi Lake, named "坼桴", and the tall people whistle between the smoke waves and reeds. Later, it built a room in the west of the city, a cave-like residence, and Yan "Returned to Hongzhai".
Although Wu Qi lived in poverty, she did not change her elegant nature. In addition to the travel, it is to read everything in the book and examine the history of the mutual scriptures. He often traveled between Wuyue and Yue, and also passed through Ouyue, Keduan Prefecture, to Shaoli, from Yizhang out of Folding Ridge, Zhiheng Yue, Pandongting, so he went to Denglin Pinghang, wrote the articles, and wrote them in competition. His works include: "Lingnan Fengwu Record", "The Complete Works of Lin Huitang" 26 volumes (12 volumes of his Chinese, 10 volumes of poems, 3 volumes of words, and 1 volume of qu), 30 volumes of "Song Jinyuan Poems", and 1 volume of "Words and Rhymes".
