The historical real Tang Yin (Zi Bohu), whose ancestors can be traced back to Tang Jian, the twenty-second of the twenty-four meritorious servants of Lingyange during the Tang Taizong period. Tang Jian's fief of Juguo (Note: The idiom "don't forget to be in Ju" is related to the Duke of Qi Huan, and the ancient Ju state was later reduced to the territory of the State of Qi) in the Shandong area, and the Ju culture and the Qilu culture were called "Qilu Ju" culture. There is a saying that "Qilu Ju culture" When the Lu culture is the most important, Tang Bohu borrowed the name of his ancestor Tang Jian, the Duke of Juguo, and the ancient Juguo was at the junction of Qilu, so he once called himself "Lu Guo TangSheng". However, Tang Geng of the Song Dynasty was known as "Xiao Dongpo" and was also known as "Mr. Lu Guo". Tang Geng's eldest brother Tang Zhanzi Wangzhi later changed his name to Bohu Zi Changru, and the two characters "Bohu" were exactly Tang Yin's characters, and his self-titled "Lu Guo Tang Sheng" did not exclude this factor.
His more distant ancestors can be traced back to the former Lianglingjiang general Tang Hui, whose county name was Jinchang, so his payment was "Jinchang Tang Yin". According to legend, when Tang Bohu was born in the year of Yin, the month of Yin, and the year of Yin, we can only conclude that he belonged to the tiger and that his younger brother Tang Shen belonged to the monkey and was born in the year of Shen. His friend Zhu Yunming wrote the "Epitaph of Tang Ziwei" recorded: "Born on the fourth day of the first month of February in the sixth year of Chenghua (1470) (another word of Tang Yin)", we know that the month of Yin is the first month, and Tang Bohu's epitaph says that he was born in February, so the rumors of Yin Ri and Yin Shi are not broken.
In the seventh year of Hongzhi, Tang Bohu's family suffered a series of changes, and his parents, wife, only son and sister left him one after another. After that, he was devastated, and his friend Zhang Ling lingered in the fireworks alley, and was disqualified by the official zhi of the main examination, and almost failed to solve the yuan. Later, with the help of Wen Zhengming's father Wen Lin and others, he achieved the good results of the first (Xie Yuan) of Ying Tianfu Township Government. Later, Tang Bohu was implicated by Xu Jing in the examination, and Tang Bohu insisted that he was perceptive enough to help Xu Jing bet on the exam questions, and there was absolutely no leak of the questions, and Xu Jing only sent some "meeting gifts" to the chief examiner. Cheng Minzheng, the chief examiner of the "Leaking Questions", refused to admit it, and Tang Bohu's road to promotion in the field was also gambled. After the death of Yuan Beixu, Tang Bohu remarried another wife, and because Tang Bohu was unfavorable to the two people's feelings, he finally chose to marry. Tang Bohu later remarried shen, and his feelings were not harmonious, and his emotional life could be described as "a mess".
Folklore has it that Tang Bohu's literary thoughts are gushing, but the real Tang Bohu poetry in history is indeed average. Among the four talents of Wu Zhong (the four talents of Jiangnan), the highest poetry talent is Xu Zhenqing. Tang Bohu is the best at painting, and his most famous poem is "Peach Blossom Anthem". Tang Bohu also followed in Li Bai's footsteps and wrote "Song of Wine to the Moon" "Li Bai had a moon before, only Li Baishi could say. Li Bai is now immortal, how many rounds of the moon is missing in the blue sky? Today's people sing Li Bai's poems, and the bright moon is still like Li Baishi. I learned li bai to mingyue, bai and mingyue can know." Tang Bohu's poem, will you doubt that this is really written by Tang Bohu?
"One up and one up, one up to the top of the mountain. Looking up at the red sun and low clouds, all the seas and five lakes are looking at each other, Tang Bohu's poem is a typical reverse (turn) poem. The characteristics of the reverse elegy are that the first two sentences are bland, the third sentence is a sharp turn, and the fourth sentence is the most essence. The most famous of the reverse elegy poems is the one related to Zheng Banqiao, "What can you do, why is it raining today." Tuotuo rain wishes Li Gongshou more than Tuotuo rain" The third sentence of Tang Bohu's reverse elegy poem uses the "Huashan" poem written by Kou Zhun when he was four years old, "Raise your head to the red sun, look back at the white clouds and low". "All over the world and all over the world" is the essence of this poem, and it seems to us to read it as if that is the case.
Did Tang Bohu really order Autumn Fragrance? According to folklore, Tang Bohu was an unruly talented man with a lot of money, in fact, Tang Bohu's father was only a small businessman, and his father barely maintained a well-off level when he was alive. After his father's death, he relied on the help of friends, and Tang Bohu was poor in the second half of his life, basically relying on selling calligraphy and paintings for a living. The story of "Tang Bohu's three laughs and dots on Qiu Xiang" is even more talked about, and the Ming notes novels such as "Jinglin Miscellaneous Records", "Jiao Window Miscellaneous Records", and "Jie'an Old Man's Comic Pen" have already appeared in the rudiments of qiuxiang stories, but there is no "one laugh" among them. Wang Tongji's "Ear Talk" is Chen Gongzi's autumn incense, the late Tang Dynasty Feng Menglong's pen became "Tang Xieyuan a Smile marriage", until the early Qing Dynasty "A Smile Before the Flower", it is a laugh and a relationship, the difference is that the male protagonist changed from Chen Gongzi to Tang Xieyuan (Tang Bohu). Later, the three laughs replaced a smile, coupled with the help of anecdotal rumors, it became the "Tang Bohu three laughs and autumn fragrance" that we are familiar with today.
Chen Gongzi and Tang Bohu have three things in common: one is that they are both from Suzhou, the other is that the two are both talented, and the third is that both of them have uninhibited factors in their personalities. In the late Ming Dynasty, the low-level literati needed an image spokesperson who dared to gag to the powerful to represent their spirit and will, so the original Chen Gongzi was replaced by Tang Bohu. Tang Bohu did have the experience of disguise, but instead of playing a book boy to enter Washington to meet Qiu Xiang, he played a beggar. Qiu Xiang is indeed in the same era as Tang Bohu, Qiu Xiang is just Lin Nuer's number, the real Lin Nu'er in history is more than 20 years older than Tang Bohu, tang Bohu pointed out what she did? Could it be that Tang Bohu had a "Oedipal Plot" like Zhu Jian deeply loved Wan Guifei? So why do future generations have to associate Qiu Xiang with Tang Bohu?
Qiu Xiang is a talented woman who was the leader of fireworks lane before marrying Liang. She once wrote a poem to completely isolate herself from the land of fireworks. "In the past, Zhangtai danced with a thin waist, and let the king climb and fold the young branches. Now written in Danqingli, the east wind is not allowed to shake again", from Lin Nu'er's "New Liutu". To some extent, Qiu Xiang (Lin Nu'er) is Tang Bohu's classmate and sister, and both of them have studied painting with Shen Zhou. Shen Zhou praised Lin Nu'er's painting "Danqing Left a Fang Name" in a poem "Linjiang Immortal", which shows that Lin Nu'er's painting skills are good. Talent matched with talented women, which made Tang Bohu and Qiu Xiang achieve spiritual complementarity. As the image spokesperson of the low-level literati in the late Ming Dynasty, Tang Bohu's image has been very different from the historical archetype under the help of anecdotal news. It is rumored that he is an omniscient talent, but in fact, Tang Bohu's poetry is bland. While orchestrating the "Great Talent" scandal, the company completely ignored the age gap between him and Qiu Xiang in his 20s, and over time, it became a version of "Tang Bohu's three smiles and dots Qiu Xiang".
