author:Shi Fang deep said

Being a man, can not be too crazy, heaven wants to die, will make it crazy, Tang Bohu is a living example, many people, ah, think that Tang Bohu should be a rich and handsome, once married eight white rich beauty, is everyone's envy of the rich children, and then finally lit Autumn Fragrance. In fact, the real history of Tang Bohu, he did not have a family wealth, did not have these merry wives, did not have a spring breeze, did not have a confidant, and even in the end, he did not even have a decent home, some were just endless unsatisfactory and sad, he can be said to be the most tragic talent in the Ming Dynasty, the family was broken, the career was destroyed, the wind flow was a lifetime, but in the end he fell down all his life and ended in depression.

What kind of person should the real Tang Bohu be? And what caused him to be so miserable Tang Yin? He was born in 1470, the eldest in the family, and he was born in the year of the tiger, so he was called Tang Bohu. His father was Tang Guangde, who ran a tavern and had a good business, but because the grade of the tavern was relatively low, the people who came in and out were some small people in the city. When Tang Bohu was born, his father had high expectations of him, hoping that he would be able to enter the army in the future, obtain a meritorious name, and honor his ancestors. The so-called everything is inferior, only the reading is high, so when he was a child, his father sent Tang Yin to a private school to study, he was indeed more talented, and he won the talent in one fell swoop at the age of 16. At that time, he also worshiped a painter, Zhou Chen, as a teacher, laying the foundation for his later paintings. At that time, he, along with Zhu Zhishan, Wen Zhengming and Xu Zhenqing, was known as the Four Great Talents of Jiangnan. On weekdays, Tang Bohu eats and drinks every day, drinks and paints. For this reason, in order to make him accept his heart, his father also married him a room when he was 19 years old, surnamed Xu, which is Xu. Xu Shi is very filial and obedient, and the family is also well-organized, and Tang Bohu also loves her very much. At this time, Tang Bohu should be the highlight of his life, this time he is successful in his career, and his family is also very happy. However, fate is so impermanent that the unexpected always comes unexpectedly, that is, after the year of his 24-year-old life, in the year when he is 25 years old. His family suffered great changes, first of all, his father died, then his mother died of excessive grief, then his wife died of difficult childbirth, the child died less than three days after birth, and finally one of his sisters died. Originally a lively and lively family, he finally became a lonely one, and this successive blows made Tang Bohu's hearse in the course of this year, and the hearse in his home was one after another.

He began to be depressed, and he numbed himself with wine every day. His friend Zhu Zhishan did not want Tang Bohu to be so depressed, so he advised him to study hard and take the meritorious examination in the future. Tang Bohu also thought in his heart, if I can get the meritorious name, it will be the best consolation for his father's spirit in heaven, so he spent a year. Closed doors to the book. At the age of 27, he went to take part in a scientific expedition, which was supposed to be a winner, because of his arrogant personality, and he drank with one of his best friend's prostitutes on the eve of the exam. The Ombudsman was so unaccustomed to such a thing that he was removed. However, the people of Suzhou cherished talents like Tang Bohu even more, so everyone went to protect Tang Bohu, and Tang Bohu was re-registered to participate in the township examination. Tang Bohu did not live up to these famous people in Suzhou, and in one fell swoop, he won the township test and became the first place in the whole city of Suzhou, and for a time the whole of Jiangnan was shocked. However, after Tang Bohu was lifted, he did not restrain himself, but instead became more and more addicted to drinking and having fun in the popular place. Friends Zhu Zhishan and Wen Zhengming persuaded him one after another, and Zhu Zhishan told him that Maxima could not look at the surface, but also look at his essence, and he was proud for a while, but do not be crazy, Wen Zhengming wrote to him and told him, I heard my father say this about you, saying that you are very talented, but you are too frivolous and crazy, I am afraid that I will not achieve anything in the future. Tang Bohu not only did not listen to his friends' persuasion, but also used harsh and harsh words to reply to them. He replied to Wen Zhengming, saying that I was born like this, you see I am not pleasing to the eye, you can not make friends with me. If you look at Tang Bohu, even if he doesn't appreciate it, he still has to break off relations with his friends. As the saying goes, the saying that people are crazy and have misfortunes has been fulfilled in Tang Bohu's body, and what happened later made his life suddenly fall to the bottom.

When Tang Bohu entered Beijing to take the exam, he met Xu Jing, the person who ruined his life. What should be said here is that Xu Jing has a descendant named Xu Xiake, Xu Jing is a proper rich second generation, and the family is very rich. He was also a loyal fan of Tang Bohu, and it was naturally fortunate to meet Tang Bohu, so he arranged all the expenses of Tang Bohu, and the two of them walked all the way and arrived in the capital very freely and happily. After Tang Bohu finished the exam, Zhang's crazy characteristics were shown again, and at the banquet after the exam, when everyone was discussing who could get the first exam, he was surprised and said, "You all don't argue anymore, the first must be mine." As a result, that year's examination questions were leaked, Xu Jing was the main criminal, he spent money to buy the main examiner, so the chief examiner and Xu Jing went to prison together. However, because Tang Bohu had a very good relationship with Xu Jing, the main reason was because he was drunk and spoke wildly, which brought him disaster. Let's think about it, the people opposite you are, and you actually say that you are the first place before the answer is revealed. Therefore, in order to avoid this public opinion, the imperial court also arrested him. In fact, this was an unjust case, but there was no way, the imperial court still deprived him of this right to be an official for life, only for the official, Tang Bohu's great future was buried in this way, and he rolled up and returned to his hometown in Jiangsu. In the past, the people were smiling and greeting him, but now it is too different, bringing him a bad reputation in the family, so they are all white-eyed and sneering. His second wife also saw that he might have no future and could not support himself, so he also abandoned Tang Bohu. It was in the face of such a cruel reality that Tang Bohu was completely desperate.

From then on, he no longer believed in the books of the sages, nor did he believe in the cold window of hard reading, he had no dreams, no pursuits, he could only paralyze himself by drunken dreams and death, and began to indulge in wine every day. Going in and out of brothels large and small, relying on their own talents, they have indeed charmed many charming women. Later, she lost her last family foundation, and she could only rely on her own paintings for a living, so she had the painting artist Tang Bohu, who we are very familiar with, so he was a talented man of poetry and painting, although Tang Bohu was very depressed, but he still waited for such an opportunity, the emperor's uncle Ning Wang spent a lot of money to hire him to work as a staff member in the Ning Palace. Tang Bohu felt as if he had met Bo Le, and as soon as he arrived at the Palace of Ning Wang in Nanchang City, he saw that king Ning had actually recruited troops and horses at this time and was preparing to rebel. Although Tang Bohu was in the form of a wandering skeleton, he could still figure it out clearly in the face of great right and wrong, he knew that this was the crime of killing his head, but he wanted to come out very much, and he knew so many secrets, what to do? He could only rely on pretending to be crazy and selling stupidity, eating and drinking urine every day, and from time to time to run naked, and also violating some good family women, so that the whole city of Nanchang was not at peace, and the King of Ning also lost all his face, and the King of Ning kicked him out of the Palace of Ning and drove him out of his own palace in a fit of rage. Later, King Ning did rebel, of course, he also failed, many people were killed, and he Tang Bohu saved his own life. When you are disappointed, there is no more desperate thing in the world than this. Since then, Tang Bohu has completely degenerated, he has spent all the money, friends, can only crowdfund him, bought a dilapidated house outside the city, Tang Bohu also gave this dilapidated house, a very nice name: Peach Blossom Temple. When we were children watching Tang Bohu dot autumn incense, we saw this poem: Peach Blossom In the Peach Blossom Wood, Peach Blossom Immortal under the Peach Blossom Temple, Peach Blossom Immortal planted peach trees, and picked peach blossoms for wine money. At that time, I thought that this poem was very leisurely and elegant, but in fact it was very tragic, a transformation of life, how much wine money peach blossoms can exchange, there is really no way, it often can't eat for a few days, but it is when its life is on the dead end. It also ushered in the peak period of his paintings, his works of art are his only spiritual sustenance, and his later works can always be reflected, and he has a kind of expectation for the beauty of life. In fact, at this time, he was in one of the most tragic circumstances in his life, just as the so-called world laughed at me for being too crazy, I laughed at others who couldn't see through it, didn't see the tomb of Wulin Haojie, and hoeed the field without flowers and wine. And so the days went by.

When he was 53 years old, he had a serious illness, and on a snowy night, he wrote a desperate poem before his death: Born in the Yang Dynasty, there is a scattering field, and it is better to die in the Local House, and the Yang Dynasty is similar, only when drifting in a foreign land. The general meaning of this poem is that in fact, yangjian and difu are the same, as if the world is so big, there is no place for Me Tang Yin alone, and soon after, he left, this world that has been joking with him, after his death, there is no money in his family to erect a monument for him, or his good friend raised money to build a monument for him, which wrote the most proud title in his life, the tomb of Tang Xieyuan. Tang Bohu's fate in life was very bumpy, and his heart should also be extremely painful. The life that could have soared was ruined by a drunken speech of his own. Therefore, when we are doing things, we can't be too crazy, there is rain in the sky, there are disasters in people, keep a low profile, know how to stop at the right time, in order to be able to not panic in case of trouble, can we calmly deal with it.
