People who have studied the history of the Ming Dynasty know that at the southern foot of Dabie Mountain, there is a Jingming tomb next to the gymnasium of the Xinyang Normal Academy, which buries the soul of a nation, He Jingming, the leader of the Ming Dynasty literary circle.
He Jingming (1483-1521 AD), also known as Zhongmo, Baipo, also known as Dafushanren, was a native of Xinyang's Xunhe District. From an early age, he was intelligent, eight years old Nengwen, in the fifteenth year of Hongzhi (1502 AD), he was a nineteen-year-old middle scholar, a scholar of Zhongshu Sheren, and an official to Shaanxi Tixue deputy envoy.
What a Jingming Image
He Jingming was an important figure in the "Four Masters of literature" in the Ming Dynasty, and one of the famous "first seven sons" of the Ming Dynasty, and was called the leader of the literary world together with Li Mengyang. He is the author of 32 poems, 1560 poems, 137 articles, and 38 volumes of the Great Collection.

However, many people will have a question, as the soul of the nation, Why did He Jingming die young before he was forty years old, and why?
As far as I know, there are several reasons for this:
First, character determines destiny and is often ostracized and persecuted.
He Jingming was born with a straight nature, just and upright, jealous and hateful, and had a very weak view of fame and fortune.
During the reign of Daming Zhengde, due to the young age of the emperor and the rise of the eunuch Liu Jin in power, his greed and perversion of the law, and the chaos of the government, the ministers were forced to be angry and dare not speak out, and the common people were deeply affected by it.
He Jingming often spoke bluntly, explaining to the emperor Liu Jin's harm to the imperial court, often causing Liu Jin to lose face and unable to come to taiwan, so he tried to persecute him and make him unable to live in peace.
Second, the long period of fatigue, the body to the limit.
During He Jingming's tenure as deputy envoy to Shaanxi Tixue, he personally did many things himself, often unable to sleep at night, and ran for the country for a long time.
During his term of office, as the director of the Department of Education, he heard and witnessed many ills in the study and administration of education, so he seriously rectified them. He specialized in teaching students "the affairs of the scriptures", and selected outstanding students in the province to study in the Zhengxue Academy, personally explained the history of the scriptures to them, and at the same time established a set of strict rules and regulations.
He Jingming was depressed, his heart itself was depressed, seeing the many shortcomings in the government at that time, his own strength was weak, powerless, coupled with a long period of physical exertion, making him terminally ill, returning to his hometown with full of pain, and died not long after.
Although He Jingming died at a young age, his literary works have been preserved, especially his upright spirit, which has been admired by future generations.
With the construction of the Jingming Tomb and the Jingming Pavilion, some of his deeds have gradually become known to people, and now more and more people go to the tomb to worship every year on the Qingming Festival, which is also a recognition for him.

After 500 years, if Mr. Jingming had known about Izumi, he would have been happy.
