Weng son-in-law famous family
Thousand years of Ruian, talented, endless, there have been many famous Chinese-style weng son-in-law model in history. These "son-in-law pairs" who are not related to each other seem to have surpassed the law of "father's inheritance and son-in-law" and achieved a good story throughout the ages.
The way of weng son-in-law can often reflect the family style of a family, and the accumulation and inheritance of family style is a valuable wealth and powerful force in the current society. The "History of Yuhai Wen" launches the "Weng Son-in-law Famous Artists" series today for the benefit of readers.
There is a couplet at the gate of the Wenzhou Municipal Library, with large characters and gold, and the pen is strong and strong. Lian Yue: "Reading the Bible on a rigid day, reading history on a soft day; ten years of trees, a hundred years of tree people." Under the couplet is "Zhi'an Sun Gongming".
Sun Zhenming (1817-1901), a Qing Dynasty Ruian mingru, character Shaofu, trumpet Aotian, late name Zhi'an, was the younger brother of Sun Yiyan and the uncle of Sun Yirang. Sun Zhenming was 19 years old, 9 years before his elder brother Yiyan. At the age of 25, he entered Hanlin, 9 years earlier than Sun Yiyan, and was only seen by Wenzhou scholars in the past 200 years since he entered the Qing Dynasty. In the twenty-fourth year of Daoguang (1844), he was taught editing in the library, and in the twenty-seventh year (1847), he was appointed as an examiner. In the year of gu rare, Sun Zhenming was also given three pins, and in the last year of his life, he was given the title of waiter.
Li Hongzhang and Shen Baozhen, important ministers of the Qing Dynasty, served as the first soldier and the first under Sun Zhenming, so he was known as "the descendant of the world's Hanlin, the two protégés of the prime minister of the DPRK and the Middle Kingdom".
For the people's lives, the Beijing officials were falsely accused of hating other careers
Sun Zhenming was a clean and upright official all his life, daring to speak out in righteousness and not avoiding the powerful. In the thirtieth year of Daoguang (1851), he once did a major event that "shook the world with a straight voice", and wrote a letter to impeach Mu Zhang'a, the military minister of the imperial court. During the Opium War, Mu Zhang'a vigorously opposed Lin Zexu's anti-smoking and anti-British resistance, and was the leader of the capitulation faction. In a high position of authority, the people of the country dared to be angry at his evil deeds and did not dare to speak out. However, Sun Zhenming dared to pull out his teeth and wrote to the Daoguang Emperor and denounced his crime in the song. After the Daoguang Emperor read the recital, he dismissed Mu Zhang'a from his post and never renewed it.
In August of the first year of the reign of Qing Tongzhi, the imperial court, because of the war in Wenzhou, issued a special edict exempting Xianfeng from the money and grain owed by the people before December 20 of the eleventh year. However, some officials in Wenzhou changed the exemption period and advanced it to the ninth year of Xianfeng. This "annihilation of the will" has provoked civil resistance. To this end, the squires wrote "Denunciation of Concealed Purposes and Unauthorized Requisitions" and posted them everywhere to expose them. However, the government refused to correct the mistakes, but instead adopted high-pressure arrests of resisters. The Wenzhou people who went to Beijing to take the test reported this incident to Sun Zhenming, who was then a bachelor's attendant at the Hanlin Academy, and asked him to speak for his hometown.
After Sun Zhenming learned of this matter, he did not give much thought to it, and sent a letter to Zuo Zongtang, the governor of Zhejiang, to inform the Wenzhou prefect Zhou Kaixi of the urgency of donating money, asking the government to be sympathetic to the people's feelings and not to increase taxes without authorization. Unexpectedly, Zhou Kaixi was Zuo Zongtang's proud protégé. After Zuo Zongtang received the letter, he was very disgusted with Sun Zhenming, believing that he did not consider the overall situation, because reducing local taxes would affect fiscal revenue and military salaries.
Seeing that Zuo Zongtang ignored it, Sun Zhenming wrote a letter to impeach Zhou Kaixi and other officials, asking the imperial court to issue an order to seek justice for the people. However, the Qing court entrusted Sun Zhenming's performance to Zuo Zongtang for investigation.
At this time, Zuo Zongtang was angry and wrote to the imperial court, accusing Sun Zhenming of impeaching Huang Weixuan, the former prefect of Wenzhou, for causing a change in the money association bandits, which was actually caused by the local gentry group Meng Lang, and Sun Zhenming, as the chief leader of the Wenzhou local regiment practicing white cloth society, had an unshirkable responsibility. In an instant, Sun Zhenming changed from plaintiff to defendant.
At that time, Zuo Zongtang was the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, and the feudal governor of the imperial court, while Sun Zhenming was only a Hanlin attendant. On the third day of the first lunar month of the third year of Tongzhi, the Qing court issued an edict ordering Sun Zhenming to retire and return home.
Taoguang raises obscurity, teaching and educating people peach and plum all over the world
After "returning home", Sun Zhenming Taoguang raised obscurity and carefully wrote and taught, and successively presided over Zhengyi in Suzhou, Zhongshan and Xiyin in Nanjing, Longmen and Qiuzhi in Shanghai, as well as Ruian's Jade Ruler, Pingyang's Longhu, Yongjia's Dongshan and other academies, and peach and plum all over the world. During this period, Li Hongzhang and Shen Baozhen repeatedly sponsored him to come back, but they were rejected.
In addition to teaching and educating people, Sun Zhenming devoted himself to the collation of township literature, and once published Sun Xidan's "Collection of Rituals", and authored "Hai Ri Lou Poetry Collection" and "Dong Ou Memorabilia".
During the light years of the Qing Dynasty, Sun Zhenming built the Hairi Tower in the front street of the Taoist Courtyard in Ruicheng, and collected many books and paintings, which were pressed and rolled up by Song Mashaben's "Records of the Words and Deeds of Famous Ministers" and passed on from generation to generation. On July 13, 1942, the paintings and calligraphy of the Hai ri Building were bombed and blown up by the aircraft of the Japanese invading forces, and all the calligraphy and paintings in the collection were destroyed in the war, which was very deplorable.
Wan Quan chose a son-in-law, and Sun Zhenming came up with two questions
Sun Zhenming has nine sons and six daughters, all of whom have strengths. The sons-in-law are also extraordinary, and the fourth son-in-law, Song Shu, is particularly prominent. Song Shu (1862-1910), also known as Song Heng, a modern Enlightenment thinker, together with Chen Dichen and Chen Qiu, was also a representative figure of the early Restoration School in China.
One day in the fifth year of the Qing Dynasty (1879), Sun Zhenming crossed the Feiyun River by boat and came to the village of Baoyuan (now Xia Xue) in Pingyang Wanquan Lianchuan on the south bank of the Feiyun River to visit a widow named Song Xiaoquan.
The Song family is a large local household, with 2,000 acres of fertile land, known as the richest man in Wanquan. However, Sun Zhenming's intention of getting drunk on this trip was not to drink, he came to admire the name, the real purpose was to rush to Song Xiaoquan's son Song Shu, just to explore his false reality.
Song Shu is the son of Song Shu's family, talented, intelligent, and famous. He reads and thinks diligently, often has extraordinary unique insights, and at the age of 9, he dared to point out that in the three biographies of "Spring and Autumn", "there are dozens of things that are not false to saints", and he is known as a prodigy.
After the meeting, Sun Zhenming came up with a question to test Song Shu. In the Song family, Sun Zhenming gave the joint order with his eyes: "A thousand feet of water in the Baizhang River", and Song Shu replied: "The single money box is very smokey." Sun Zhenming also ordered: "Govern the country and the world", Song Shu replied: "The poet works to draw a picture". At this time, Sun Zhenming saw that Song Shu was indeed extraordinary, and smiled: "It is a pity that the poet will end up."
Sun Zhenming saw that he was very opportunistic in talking to Song Shu, so he gave him his fourth daughter, Sun Sixun. When Song Shu was 18 years old, he married Sun Sixun as his wife in the "Half Garden". Sun Zhenming's choice of a son-in-law was rumored to be a beautiful talk in Ruian and Pingyang.
Weng's son-in-law was deeply in love, and Song Shu wept for a thousand lines to mourn his father-in-law
After Song Shu became Sun Zhenming's "Fast Son-in-law of the East Bed", he often went to the Ruian Sun family to "look at ancient and modern books", and personally listened to Sun Yiyan, Sun Zhenming, and Sun Yiming and Sun Yirang discuss the learning of Yongjia and explore the art of jingyi to help the people.
After 1879, Song Shu went to Shanghai, Nanjing and other places with his father-in-law Sun Zhenming, and became acquainted with Zhang Peilun, Zhang Shiheng and many other famous scholars.
Song Shu had a better understanding of the general trend of the world, and he read more indignantly, hoping to find a good recipe for imperial insults and exclusivity and revitalization of the country. In 1892, when Song Shu arrived in Tianjin, Li Hongzhang received him alone, praised him as a "wizard in the sea", and made him a Chinese teacher in the Water Master School.
After the Sino-Japanese War, he left his post indignantly and successively served as the chief writer of Hangzhou's Jingshi Bao, the chief teacher of Chinese language at Qiushi Academy, and a member of the Shandong Academic Affairs Office and a copywriter. During this period, he came into contact with Kang Youwei, Liang Qichao, Tan Sitong, Wang Kangnian, Ye Han and a large number of reformers in Shanghai, and was often with Zhang Huanlun, Sun Baoxuan, Hu Weizhi, Zhang Binglin and others, becoming the theoretical core of the Shanghai restoration school.
Tan Sitong praised Song Shu as a "later master of the king", Liang Qichao called him "a day after Li Zhou", and Cai Yuanpei said that he "has the qualifications of a philosopher". Sun Baoxuan lamented that he was the "Great Confucian of the Ancient World" and respected him as a teacher; the Guangxu Emperor's Edict of Sin and Self-Inflicted Wounds, which influenced history, was drafted by Song Shu.
In his book "The Six Jai And Humble Discussions", he clearly put forward the reform propositions of abolishing the time text, changing the official system, setting up a parliament, practicing Western law, running a Western study, and changing suits. He also stood on the oppressed peasants, traders, and ethnic minorities, advocating "reducing taxes and rejuvenating businessmen, collecting shares to revitalize workers, and enriching farmers with thin endowments." In particular, on the position of the vast number of women who were at the lowest level of society at that time, he vigorously advocated social equality and equality between men and women.
Song Shu was the earliest advocate of safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of women in modern China. He advocated women's right to freedom of marriage, believing that the feudal marriage of the three principles and five permanents and the husband as a wife was a shackle on women's heads. He combined the traditional Chinese marriage system with the marriage system of Western civilization and carefully designed a new set of marriage systems, which specifically involved the legal age of marriage, the legal registration authority and the divorce regulations.
He also advocated reforms on women's right to education. He also pointed out in his writings: "In a democratic country, there is no one who lifts up women, and in the future the people will benefit the people, and they will be able to lift up men and women as one." Song Shu's idea of giving men and women equal suffrage is far ahead of the times.
Song Shu only lived for 48 years, and before his death, he predicted that "the system of a monarch and a family under the heavens will not last long in China, and the national system will not change far away." Sure enough, the year after his death, the Xinhai Revolution broke out, ending more than two thousand years of feudal absolutism in China.
Sun Zhenming and Song Shu weng had a deep affection. In 1901, Sun Zhenming died, and Song Shu mourned and wrote Bang Lianyun: My nephew does not need to be discussed, he wept for Mr. Wang, he is the first confidant in Huanzhong; the country is helpless, the pain of the hurts the gods, and accidentally spreads the lament of the wind and wood. He wrote the elegy "Tribute to His Uncle's Former Hanlin Academy Attendant Mr. Sun Zhi'an", and also wrote "Outline of the Study and Practice of The Maternal Uncle Sun Zhi'an" and "The Elegy of Mr. Sun Zhi'an" (70 poems) and other mourning and mourning.
