Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest
Compared with the three years of Chen Liu Nguyen, Ji Kang of Chen Guo, and Shan Tao of Hanoi, Kang Nian is less than yazhi. Those who predicted this deed were Liu Ling of Peiguo, Chen Liu Nguyen Xian, Xiang Xiu of Hanoi, and Wang Rong of Lang. Seven people often gather under the bamboo forest, wantonly enjoying themselves, so the world is called "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest".
The title "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest" was first mentioned in the "Spring and Autumn of the Wei Dynasty" written by the Eastern Jin Dynasty historian Sun Sheng: "Kang Yu lived in Shanyang County, Hanoi, and those who traveled with him did not taste its joy. He is friendly with Chen Liu Nguyen, Shan Tao of Hanoi, Shi Zi Xian, Wang Rong of Lang, and Liu Ling of Pei, and swims in the bamboo forest, known as the Seven Sages. ”
The Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest began around the fifth year of the first year, that is, after 244 AD, and was mainly active during the Jiaping period. At this time, Cao Shuang had just been reprimanded, Sima Shi's father and son were shuffling their cards, and the Wei dynasty and opposition were in some chaos, so Ruan Yuan, Ji Kang, Shan Tao, Liu Ling, Ruan Xian, Xiang Xiu, Wang Rong, four Henan people, two Anhui people, and one Shandong people, met together by chance, they gathered in the bamboo forest, Suoqin drank, indulged in a bondage, had a xuanyuan in their hearts, and comforted the feelings of the world with the way of Lao Zhuang.
The site of activity of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest was Shanyang County, which is now Xiuwu County in Jiaozuo, Henan.
The Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest can get together, and the key figure is Shantao.
In the first five years of his life, Shantao was working as a petty official in Shanyang, during which he met the young talent Ji Kang, and later met Ruan Yuan, and introduced Ruan Zhi to Ji Kang, and the three of them joined hands in the forest. Next, Shan Tao recommended his compatriot Xiang Xiu, and Ji Ji brought in his son Ruan Xian and Wang Rong, who was still a teenager at the time, as for Liu Ling, he probably smelled of wine.
Among the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest, Ruan Ju is wild and uninhibited, has a strong world-weary tendency, has multiple identities as a poet, a drinking enthusiast and a metaphysician, and in the face of the dispute between the Cao family and the Sima family, he may have something he is not accustomed to, but he does not have a strong sense of standing, just a deep sense of powerlessness.
Ji Kang, just straight and arrogant, is a thinker, a literary theorist and a lover of makeup and iron and a music player, whose representative works include "Wenling San", "Renunciation with Mountain Juyuan", "Theory of Sound Without Sorrow", "Qin Fu", "Poetry of Humor", "Difficult Nature and Good Learning", and "Health Theory". He was an appendage of the State of Wei.
The mountains are deep, Liu Ling is open, Ruan Xian is fierce, Xiang Xiuxiu, and Wang Rong is smart.

Nguyen – the loneliness of a world-weary person
Ruan Was buried by his mother, sat down in King Wen of Jin, and drank wine and meat. Si Li He Zeng was also sitting, saying: "Ming Gong Fang ruled the world with filial piety, while Ruan Ji showed himself in the public sitting with heavy mourning, drinking and eating meat, and it was advisable to flow overseas and teach with orthodox style." King Wen said, "Emperor Sizong destroyed the Throne like this, and the king cannot worry about it, what is it?" And there is a disease and drinking and eating meat, and the funeral is also fixed. "Drinking and drinking, looking at ease.
Nguyen was the best poet of his time, but later generations talked about him more in favor of his shocking and disdainful Confucian rituals. He also had the greatest influence on future generations. The characteristics of Wei and Jin celebrities can basically be found in him: good old Zhuang, talking about metaphysics, disdainful of Confucian etiquette, good wine can play the piano and whistle, unrestrained, and affectionate. In addition, there is also the way of what kind of body that Shilin can accept.
The leader of the bamboo forest, Ruan Zhi (阮籍), courtesy name Sizong, was the son of Ruan Yu (阮瑀), the "Seventh Son of Jian'an", a native of the ChenLiu wei clan in Henan, who lived in the last years of Cao Wei. History says that Nguyen had the talent of the world, but due to the chaos of the situation, he had to bury himself very deeply.
Ruan Yu's father, Ruan Yu, was deeply appreciated by Cao Cao, but Ruan Zhi resigned from the Cao family's officialdom twice in a row, and did not get closer to the Cao family because of his father's relationship. When Sima Yi launched the Gaoping Tomb Rebellion, everyone said that Ruan Wassure was foresightly. Sima Yi admired his talents, but this time Ruan Zhi did not refuse. Subsequently, Nguyễn Served in the shogunate of Sima Shi, serving as a regular attendant for the Scattered Horsemen and as a Taishou for Dongping.
After Sima Shi's death, Ruan was introduced into the shogunate by Sima Zhao and was treated with great courtesy. Put it this way, the same thing, others will be angry when they do Sima Zhao; Ruan Zhi will do it, and there is nothing at all.
General Sima and Ruan Zhi had a tacit understanding in their hearts. In the face of Sima Zhao's appreciation, Ruan's attitude was: politically, he did not take the Sima family as an opponent, but also did not take the initiative to participate in the affairs of the Sima family, and maintained a delicate relationship with it, so that he politely refused Sima Zhao's courtship in a drunken way.
Because of this, even if Ruan Zhi was a wandering skeleton and often did something that violated Confucian etiquette, he could eventually be tolerated by Sima Zhao.
Once, Nguyen's mother died. In Sima Zhao's bureau, Ruan Still ate meat and drank like that. The chancellor He Zeng, who was present, stood up and said to Sima Zhao: "Ming Gong ruled the world with filial piety, but now, Ruan Zhi lost his mother, but he violated etiquette and religion, drinking and eating meat." Such a person should be exiled to a distant place to straighten out the atmosphere. ”
Sima Zhao looked down and thought for a moment, and said, "Emperor Sizong's spirit was so entrusted because of the death of his mother, you can't share your worries with him, why is this?" Moreover, drinking and eating meat when there is a disease is also in line with the relevant etiquette. ”
Sima Zhao spoke for Ruan At every turn. The latter's relationship with the great general and the way of dealing with the world have also deeply influenced future generations of scholars: in the inner world, they retain their own fields; in the face of power, they are alone.
At one time, Nguyen had a high spirit. As a world-weary person, Nguyen is lonely.
According to historical records, Ruan Zhishan shouted, and he could clearly hear it from a hundred steps away.
At that time, there were hermits in Sumen Mountain who did not know the name, called Sumen Zhenren, and was legendary by the chopper. Nguyen was curious and drove alone.
At the bottom of the mountain, Nguyen abandoned the car to climb the mountain.
Mount Sumen is not very high, less than two hundred meters above sea level, and before long, I saw several peaks in the distance, and there was a person sitting on his knees. Ruan Ji climbed to the top and sat down with the man, who had no expression on his face. Nguyen And the People on the Ancient Xuan Ancient Way. The man was speechless, just staring at Ruan. Ruan Ji asked him about the art of self-cultivation, but the man still did not answer.
Later, Nguyen No longer spoke and also looked at that.
Time passed by and twilight began to rise. Ruan Ji looked at the opposite side again, and the man was still expressionless. At a certain moment, perhaps it startled Ruan Yuan, and then he suddenly realized something, so he shouted at it.
The man suddenly laughed and said, "You want to scream again." ”
Ruan Ji then roared again and went down the mountain with pleasure. Halfway up the mountainside, I overheard the sound of Qingyuan coming from the mountain, which resounded through the mountain forest, and looked back, and the whistler was none other than the Nasumen Zhenren.
Sumen Zhenren is the famous Hermit Sun Deng of Wei and Jin.
The historical Sun Deng was a god-man, sexually moodless, and once lived in seclusion on Mount Sumen. Some people threw him into the lake to try his sex, trying to provoke him, but Sun Deng swam in the lake for a while, then climbed ashore, laughed and left.
Ruan Zhi left two laughing legacies to future generations: one is his way of dealing with the world, and the other is the eighty-two obscure "Yong Huai Poems". Ruan's Yonghuai poems are treasures in the history of Chinese literature.
In 263 AD, two years before the establishment of the Jin Dynasty, the world-weary poet finally died alone.

Liu Ling indulged in wine
Liu Ling indulged in wine, or stripped naked in the house. When people saw it, they said, "I regard heaven and earth as the building and the house as the garment, so why should the kings enter into my robe?" ”
Liu Ling's alcohol consumption is not as large as Ruan's, this is really uncertain. But there is no doubt about it, that is, his love for wine is more pure than Nguyen'.
Liu Ling, Zi Bolun, Pei Guoren. History records: "Liu Ling was six feet long, looked very ugly, and was leisurely and careless, and the earth was shaped like a skeleton. ”
Not only short, but also very ugly.
The relationship between Wei and Jin celebrities and wine is also very wonderful. Many times, they have to borrow wine to reach a transcendent realm.
Liu Ling drank fiercely, just as we know, he often rode in a deer cart, carried a pot of wine, and made people follow him with a hoe, saying: "Death will bury me!" ”
The ancient sages were lonely, and the sexual drinkers kept their names. This is Liu Ling.
A person who has never done anything, just by drinking alcohol and famous in history, Liu Ling, can be.

Nguyen Ham
Many people know that there is an instrument called Nguyen. In fact, the full name of this instrument is Nguyen Ham. Nguyen Ham, a man's name, who? Nguyen's nephew, another of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest.
Ruan Xian, in the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest, ranked third in terms of alcohol consumption behind Liu Ling and Ruan Yuan. He is also a well-known musician who has quietly disappeared into history after leaving us an instrument, an idiom, and a story of a one-night stand.
Ruan Xian wanted the most unpopular of the Seven Sages in the bamboo forest, just followed his uncle Ruan Yuan, drank with everyone, and had fun and happiness, without too many ideas.
After entering the Jin Dynasty, Ruan Xian served as a loose horse attendant, an idle post, and was also a Taishou of Shiping, who did not care about things for the officials. Hou ShanTao recommended him to join the official's department, but he did not succeed, because Emperor Sima Yan heard that this person was too vain.
As a musician of that era, Ruan Xian was deeply familiar with the rhythm of music, especially good at playing the pipa, and his representative work was in "Three Gorges Flowing Spring".
The pipa was introduced to the Central Plains from the ancient kingdom of Guizi in the Western Regions, and Ruan Xian transformed it to create a new plucked instrument, which was later called "Ruan Xian", referred to as "Ruan".
A musical instrument named after a person, it seems that only Nguyen Ham enjoys this glory.
The stories about Nguyen Ham, though not much, are surprising enough.
According to the customs of Wei and Jin, on the seventh day of the first month of July, to dry things in the courtyard, everyone else has Ayala to dry, and Ruan Xian is in the courtyard carrying a coarse cloth pants, people ask, answer: "Not exempt from vulgarity!" "Extremely ironic.
Finally, there was the one-night stand event.
Ruan Xian's aunt came to ruan's house for a vacation, and the Xianbei people around her were very beautiful, and the details need not be said later. My aunt lived in Nguyen's house for almost two months. During this time, Nguyen Ham's mother died. The aunt was going to take the humble girl home. The previous evening, xianbei had secretly pulled Ruan Xian to the small river, caressed her stomach, and said, "You understand, right? ”
When Ruan Xian understood, he said, "Rest assured, I will tell my aunt to keep you by my side." If you are deceived, let me fall into the wine tank and drown. ”
Later, the aunt's real arcane skills were full of Nguyen Ham's request. However, before leaving, it has changed again. Ruan Xian heard that Ya Gui had been taken away by her aunt again, and she was very anxious, so she stepped on the donkey and chased her out in filial piety. At a fork in the road, he finally caught up with his aunt and his party. He pulled the humble woman onto the donkey and left without saying a word.
After returning home, Nguyen Ham said to Wang Rong, "Thank you donkey." ”
Wang Rong said, "Is it worth it for a humble woman?" ”
Ruan Xian replied: "The race must not be lost!" ”
The child in the belly of the humble woman is the later celebrity Ruan Fu, a han-hu mixed-race child.

Ji kang
Ji Kang was born in the fifth year of the Huang Dynasty (224 AD) of emperor Wen of Wei and the fourth year of the Huang Dynasty (223 AD). His ancestors, whose original surname was Xi, lived in Shangyu District, Huiji (present-day Shangyu District, Shaoxing, Zhejiang), and his great-grandfather migrated to Qi County in the State of Qi, where he changed his surname to Ji in order to avoid the enemy family. Ji Kang's father, Ji Zhao (嵇昭), was an official who served the imperial history. Ji Kang's elder brother Ji Xi (嵇喜), joined the army as Xiucai in his early years, and later served as a servant, a Yangzhou assassin, and ZongZheng.
Ji Kang lost his father at a young age and was raised by his mother and brother. He was bright at an early age, well-read and learned a variety of skills. As an adult, he liked to read Taoist works, and he was seven feet eight inches long, and his appearance was outstanding, but he did not pay attention to dressing. Later, he married the granddaughter of Cao Lin the Prince of Pei, the son of Emperor Cao of Weiwu, as his wife, and was thus given the title of BailangZhong (中郎中) and later served as the Grand Master of Zhongshan. Ji Kang had a son and a daughter with Princess Changle Ting (her son Ji Shao).
Ji Kang advocates Lao Zhuang, pays attention to the way of health care and food, and advocates the lifestyle of "teaching more than the name and letting nature go". He often practiced the matter of nourishing and eating Neidan, playing the piano and chanting poems, and satisfying himself. He praised the deeds of the ancient hermit Dashi, longing for the life of the world, and was reluctant to become an official.
Ji Kang once swam in Yamazawa to collect medicine, and when he was proud, he forgot to go home in a trance. At that time, some firewood cutters met him and thought they were gods. When he met the hermit Sun Deng in the mountains of Ji County, Ji Kang traveled with him. Sun Deng was silent and self-guarding, not saying anything. When Ji Kang was leaving, Sun Deng said, "You have a strong temperament and are talented and handsome, how can you be spared from disaster?" Ji Kang met the hermit Wang Lie again, and went into the mountains together, wang Lie once got chalcedony, as sweet as sugar, so he ate half of it himself, and the rest half was given to Ji Kang, and as a result, before he could take it, it condensed into stone. When he saw a book written on white silk in the stone chamber, he immediately called ji kang to get it, and the book was no longer there. Wang Lie then sighed, "Ji Kang's interest is unusual, but he always has no talent, this is fate!" ”
The powerful general Sima Zhao wanted to appoint him as a shogunate subordinate, and he ran to Hedong Commandery to evade conquest. Lieutenant Colonel Zhong Hui went to visit and was treated coldly by him. When ShanTao, who was also the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest, left his post as an elected official (Shangshu Official) and recommended Ji Kang to replace him. Ji Kang wrote "Letter of Renunciation with Shan Juyuan", listing that he had "seven unbearable" and "two untouchables", and resolutely refused to be discharged. History says that "the great general (referring to Sima Zhao) was angry when he heard it." Ji Kang adopted an uncooperative attitude toward Sima Shi, so he was quite jealous of Sima Zhao.
In the fourth year of Jing Yuan (263 CE, the third year of Jing Yuan), Ji Kang's friend Lü An's wife Xu Shi was raped by Lü An's brother Lü Xun. Lu An was indignant and wanted to sue Lü Xun. Ji Kang had contacts with lü Xun and Lü An's brothers, so he advised Lu An not to expose the ugliness of the family in order to preserve the reputation of the door. However, Lü Xun was afraid of retaliation, so he preemptively attacked and falsely accused Lü An of filial piety, so that Lü An was arrested by the government. Ji Kang was very angry and came forward to testify on Be'an's behalf, thus angering Sima Zhao. At this time, Zhong Hui, who had a grudge with Ji Kang, took the opportunity to speak to Sima Zhao in order to frame Ji Kang. Sima Zhao, enraged, ordered ji kang and Lü An to be executed.
On the day of Ji Kang's execution, three thousand Tai students collectively petitioned the imperial court to pardon him and asked that Ji Kang teach at Tai Xue, but their demands were not granted. Before his execution, Ji Kang's expression remained unchanged, as usual. He looked at the shadow of the sun and knew that there was still a period of time before the execution, so he asked his brother Ji Xi for the piano he usually liked to use, and stroked a song "Guangling San" on the execution ground. Qu Bi, Ji Kang put down the piano and sighed: "In the past, Yuan Xiaoni (Yuan Zhun) used to study "Guangling San" with me, but I always hesitated and stubbornly refused to teach him, and "Guangling San" is now going to be lost. (According to legend, "Guangling San" was not written by Ji Kang alone, but was given by an ancient person when Ji Kang played Luoxi) After saying this, he calmly killed at the age of forty. There was no undignified soldier in Hainei, and Sima Zhao soon realized his mistake, but he could not regret it.

ShanTao
Shan Tao (205 – March 3, 283), courtesy name Juyuan. A native of Huai County, Hanoi County (present-day Wuzhixi, Henan). During the Three Kingdoms to the Western Jin Dynasty, he was a minister and a famous scholar, and one of the "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest".
Shan Tao was lonely and poor in his early years, liked the old Zhuang doctrine, and traveled with Ji Kang and Ruan Zhi. At the age of forty, he became the head of the county. When the general Sima Shi was in power, Shantao was promoted to Xiucai and moved to Shangshu Bulang. After the establishment of the Western Jin Dynasty, he was promoted to the rank of Great Hongxu. He successively served as a servant, a bureaucrat Shangshu, a prince and a young fu, and a left servant, and was given the title of New Uncle. Every time he selected an official, he first adhered to the will of Emperor Wu of Jin and personally commented on it, which was called "Mountain Gong Notice". He has resigned from office many times because of old age and illness, but he is not allowed. In the third year of Taikang (282), he was promoted to Situ and returned home with old age and illness. He died the following year, at the age of seventy-nine, with the nickname "Kang". There are ten volumes of anthologies, which have been extinct, and now there are compilations. Yuan Hong called ShanTao and seven others "Bamboo Forest Celebrities" in the Biography of Mingshi.
ShanTao's father, Shan Yao, was an official of Wangu County. Shantao was widowed at an early age and his family was poor. When I was a teenager, I had a lot of equipment and stood out. He likes "Zhuangzi" and "Lao Tzu", and often lives in seclusion in the countryside, covering up his ambitions and talents. He was friends with mingshi Ji Kang and Lu An, and later met Ruan Yuan, becoming a friend of the bamboo forest, and several people were interested in the friendship, which was a friendship of Mo Rebellion. Ji Kang was later convicted of offending Sima Shi, and before his death, he said to his son Ji Shao: "With Juyuan (Shantao Character) present, you will not be alone and alone." ”
Shan Tao's father, Shan Yao, was an official to Wangu County. Shantao was widowed at an early age and his family was poor. When I was a teenager, I had a lot of equipment and stood out. He likes "Zhuangzi" and "Lao Tzu", and often lives in seclusion in the countryside, covering up his ambitions and talents. He was friends with Ji Kang and Lu An, and later met Ruan Yuan, often traveling in a bamboo forest, and his interests were compatible, and he was a friend of Mo Rebellion. Ji Kang was later convicted of offending Sima Shi, and before he died, he said to his son Ji Shao: "With a huge source, you will not be lonely and helpless." ”
Shan Tao entered the career at the age of forty, and initially served as the county's chief bookkeeper, Gong Cao, and Shangji Tuan. Later, he was promoted to filial piety, and was conscripted into Henan by the prefecture.
Once, Shantao slept with Shi Jian, got up at night and kicked Shi Jian with his foot, saying to him, "What time is it, you are still sleeping!" Do you know what Taifu (referring to Sima Yi) meant when he said that he was bedridden? Shi Jian replied, "The prime minister has not been to the court many times, just give him a ruler and a long edict to let him go home, why should you worry about it!" Shan Tao said, "Duh! Shi Sheng don't run back and forth between the hooves of horses! So he discarded the official charm and left. In 249 (the first ten years), Sima Yi did launch the Gaopingling Rebellion and destroyed the Cao Shuang clique, so Shantao went into hiding and did not care about the world.
Later, he entered the dynasty as a waiter and moved to Shangshu. Because of his mother's old age and request for resignation, Emperor Wu issued an edict saying: "Although you want to serve your mother, but the position is divided into public and private, sooner or later there are people in the family who serve medicine, you should temporarily cut off your love, in order to promote the virtue of the public." Shan Tao was determined to resign his post, and his cousin was made dozens of times, and Emperor Wu agreed to his request for a long time and gave him the title of Lang to return to Fudi. Emperor Wu was unable to support his family because of his poverty and frugality, so he provided daily meals and bedding. The courtesy was thick, and no one could compare with him at that time.
In 274 AD (the tenth year of the Tai Dynasty), he was appointed Taichang and did not take office due to illness. When his mother died, he returned to the village.
At that time, Shantao was over seventy years old, and the funeral was more than the usual ceremony, personally carrying the mound of soil and planting pines with his own hands. Emperor Wu appointed Shan Tao as the official Shangshu. Shantao resigned on the grounds of his mother's death and illness, expressing his affection and earnestness, at this time Emperor Wu's empress Yang Yan died, and Shantao reluctantly supported luoyang. Persecuted by the edict, he reluctantly took office. The people who recommended the promotion before and after were all over the capital division and the prefecture and county, and they were all useful talents.
In 283 (the fourth year of Taikang), Shantao died at the age of seventy-nine. Emperor Wu ordered emperor to give a coffin of imperial clothes, a set of clothes, 500,000 yuan, and a hundred pieces of cloth for funerals, and ordered situ to posthumously give Situ's wax seal purple silk, the mink cicada in the waiter, and the wax seal qing zhu silk of the new Tuoba Bo, and sacrifice it with the ritual of the etheric prison, and the title kang.
When he was about to be buried, he gave him 400,000 yuan and a hundred horses of cloth. Situ Zuo Chang Shi Fan Dial and other shangsheng said: "There are only ten rooms in the old mansion of Shantao, but there are many descendants and cannot accommodate it. Emperor Wu then built a house for the Shantao family.

Xiang Xiu
Xiang Xiu (c. 227–272), courtesy name Zi Period, was a native of Huai County, Hanoi (present-day Wuzhi, Henan). A literary scholar of the Wei and Jin dynasties, one of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest. Xiang Xiuya is good at reading, and is kind to Ji Kang, Lu An and others, and lives in seclusion. In the fourth year of Jingyuan (263), after Ji Kang and Lü An were killed by Sima Zhao, Xiang Xiuying went to Luoyang, where he was received by Sima Zhao, and was later promoted to Huangmen Shilang (黄門侍郎) and Shanqi Changshi (散霖常侍). He died in the eighth year of Taeshi (272).
Under the guidance of Shantao, he got to know Ji Kang and Ruan Yuan, which was also a "bamboo forest tour". Xiang Xiuhao reads and is friendly with Ji Kang, Lu An and others, but is not good at drinking. Ji Kang is "very clever and good at forging", so it is often seen that the two play iron under the willow tree in front of Ji Kang's house to entertain themselves, Ji Kang palms the hammer, Xiang Xiu blows the wind, the two cooperate tacitly, if there is no one around, enjoy themselves, but also in order to "support themselves", subsidize a little family. Xiang Xiu also often goes to Lu An's house to help him serve the vegetable garden, and the three of them can be described as agreeing.
When Xiang Xiusuke Ji Kang hit the iron, he witnessed that Zhong would be ridiculed by Ji Kang. This incident became the source of Ji Kang's beheading. Xiang Xiu witnessed what happened later, and these things also affected his later life path. In the fourth year of Jing Yuan (263), after experiencing the great tragedy and pain of Ji Kang and Lu An being killed by Sima Zhao, Xiang Xiu realized greatly in sorrow and confusion, and in the midst of bitterness and wandering, his state of mind became more indifferent and quiet, and he expounded the spirit of Zhuangzi's thoughts with his heart.
After Ji Kang was killed, Xiang Xiu, under pressure from the powerful, went to Luoyang at the request of the county magistrate and was received by Sima Zhao, who asked Xiang Xiu, "I heard that you used to have a reclusive "Ji Shan Zhi", why did you come to see me today?" Xiu Yue: "People like Father Chao and Xu Yu do not understand Emperor Yao's intentions to seek talents, so the life of seclusion is not worth enviing." Xiang Xiu later became an official of the Yellow Gate Waiter and the Scattered Horse Chang Shi, and was kind to Ren Kai and so on.
In the eighth year of the Tai Dynasty (272), Xiang Xiu died.
08
Wang Rong
Wang Anfeng woman, Changqing Anfeng. An Feng yue: "Lady Qing's son-in-law, Yu Li is disrespectful, and do not return to Er later." The woman said, "If you love Qingqing, you are Qingqing; if I am not Qingqing, who will be Qingqing?" So he listened.
Many of the idioms we are familiar with come from the "New Language of the World", such as Qingqing I and I.
Wang Anfeng was the youngest of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest, Wang Rong, a native of Linyi, who later became the Jin of the Bamboo Forest, and finally took the position of Situ, ranked third duke, and was enfeoffed as the Hundred Marquis of An.
Wang Rong had a good relationship with his wife.
His wife often referred to Wang Rong as "Qing". During the Wei and Jin dynasties, "Qing" could not be called casually. One night, Wang Rong, who was known for his frugality, said to his wife, "You always call me 'Qing', which is not in accordance with etiquette, so don't call me that in the future." ”
Although "Qing" is a kind and invisible title, in that era, although free and uninhibited, in general, wives could not use "Qing" to call their husbands. Now, in the face of his wife's name, Wang Rong took a stand.
The wife replied, "Only when I love you is you qing; I am not called qing, who calls you qing?!" ”
The new women of the Wei and Jin dynasties were known for daring to love and hate, and for revealing their true feelings.
There are several stories about Wang Rong's frugality:
One: "Wang Rong was stingy, married from his son, with a single piece of clothing, and later more responsible." "What is said is: Wang Rong's nephew got married, he only gave his nephew a single piece of clothing as a gift, and after a few days, he was going to come back again.
Second: The Wei and Jin people ate plums. At that time, in Luoyang City, Wang Rong was the best with the Li Shu of the Various Shi and The Yu Family. But later, the plum tree of the Hejia family was cut down by his brother-in-law Wang Ji, so the plum tree of the Wang Rong family became the first. Wang Rong, although he died three dukes, was an extremely popular subject, but privately he made a small deal, often disguised himself, and took plums to the market to set up stalls, but he was worried that others would get seeds, so before selling, he often drilled the core of the plums: "Wang Rong has good plums, sells them, fears that people will get them, and constantly drill its core." ”
