Chapter 98: Looking for the Light of the Mo Family, the Great Mo Family
The second work is - Pei Min, one of the three unique swords in China: a native of Tang Kaiyuan. According to "Du Wei Zhi", he "threw the sword into the clouds, dozens of zhang high, if the electric light shoots down, the sheath is carried by the hand, the sword enters through the air, and the audience is thousands of people, all of whom are cold and frightened." According to the "Records of Famous Paintings of the Past Dynasties", the painter Wu Daozi saw Pei Min's sword dance, "the haunted gods and monsters are finished, but they are "swaying to make progress". The poet Li Bai once learned the sword from him. During the reign of Wenzong, Li Bai's poems, Zhang Xu's cursive writing, and Pei Min's sword dance were called "three uniques", and the world called the three of them "poet immortals", "grass saints" and "sword saints" respectively. Bae is also known for his good shooting. Ren Beiping is punctual, there are many tigers in Beiping, and he shoots 31 tigers a day.
Pei Min was the military envoy of Longhua and guarded Beiping. There are many tigers in Beiping. Min Seon shot. Taste one day to kill the tiger in thirty, and look around at the bottom of the mountain. Some fathers and elders said: "This is all biao, like a tiger." If the general encounters a real tiger, there is nothing he can do. Min said: "Where is the real tiger?" The old father said: "Since then, thirty miles to the north, there are often them." "Min jumped on the horse, and the second bush was thin. If there is a tiger freed up, the shape is small and fierce, and the ground roars, and the mountain rock cracks. The horses are easy, the bows and arrows are falling, and they are inevitable. Since then, he has been afraid and has not shot the tiger again.
Pei Min, as a military envoy of Longhua, was stationed in Beiping. There are a lot of tigers in Beiping. Pei Min is good at shooting, and once shot and killed thirty-one tigers in one day. Then he looked around at the bottom of the hill, looking at himself. An old man came up to him and said, "All the things you shot are Biao." Elephant tiger instead of tiger. If you meet a real tiger. There is nothing that can be done. Pei Min said: "Where is the real tiger?" The old man said, "From here thirty miles to the north." There are often tigers. Pei Min urged the horse to the north, and came to a place overgrown with grass and trees, and sure enough, a tiger jumped out. The tiger was small in size, but fierce, and when he stood there and roared, the mountain rock cracked, and Pei Min's horse fell backwards in fright, and his bow and arrows fell to the ground. I was almost devoured by a tiger. From then on, he was ashamed and scared, and stopped shooting tigers.
During the Kaiyuan period, Pei Min wanted to invite the great painter Wu Daozi to make murals in Tiangong Temple because of the death of his mother. Wu Daozi said: I haven't painted for a long time, if General Pei wants me to paint, I have to ask the general to dance a "sword dance" to inspire my painting thoughts. Pei Min immediately took off his filial piety clothes and danced with a sword, only to see him "flying like a horse, spinning left and right", suddenly. and "threw the sword into the clouds, dozens of feet high." If the electric light shoots down, Min leads his hand to hold the sheath and inherit it, and the sword enters through the room." The sword that was thrown up dozens of feet high can be caught with the scabbard in his hand and make it go straight into the sheath, which is really a sword skill trick. At that time, thousands of onlookers were shocked and amazed, in fact, everyone didn't know that this sword saint Pei Min was the secret heir of the Mo family, and he was deeply influenced by the Mo family's non-attack, Shang Tong's true swordsmanship, and his real kung fu could reach the realm of the sword with qi, but it was just kept secret. Wu Daozi was also moved by the momentum of the fierce sword dance, and his thinking was quick, if he had the help of God, he waved the picture wall, and the wind rose, and soon a mural of "the magnificence of the world" was painted.
Some people say that "Pei Min's sword dance is just a performance that integrates acrobatics, dance and martial arts movements, and does not have the function of actual combat", this is a school of nonsense, you must know that the Mojia swordsmanship is completely from the source and actual combat, there is no trick fancy, and the move can directly take people's lives. They probably thought that the martial arts of the ancients were like the current martial arts performances, all of which were showy. It is unknown whether the sword dance of Gongsun Auntie has actual combat effect. But Pei Min's sword dance is definitely more than just "rhythmic gymnastics". Let's take a look at the record in "The Reign and the Wild": "Pei Min and Sun Yan, the governor of Youzhou, marched north and were surrounded by thieves. Min immediately walked away, the wheel knife thundered, and the arrow was like a star, and it was broken by the knife. The thief didn't dare to take it, so he flew away. "New Tang Dynasty Book" also said: "General Pei once accompanied the governor of Youzhou, Sun Yan, to the north to attack the Xi people, surrounded by the Xi people, General Pei is a dancing knife on the horse, flying four episodes, and the blade is broken." Xi was shocked, so he broke the siege and left."
There is a saying that the general is not afraid of thousands of troops, but only an inch. No matter how brave you are, you will have to become a big hedgehog if you rain down with a strong bow and a crossbow. Luo Cheng, the seventh good man of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, wasn't he killed by random arrows in the silt river? In the Song Dynasty, Yang Zaixing was brave and invincible, but he was shot dead because of the horse trapping the Xiaoshang River. And Pei Min was able to be calm and calm, and danced a long knife through the wind and rain, and the enemy's arrow rain was cut off by him one after another and fell in front of the horse, so the enemy was so frightened that he fled far away. This hand is not inferior to the "broken arrow style" in Linghu Chong's "Dugu Nine Swords", this is what we have seen the Shang Tong swordsmanship performed by the descendants of the Mo family, and the flying flowers and leaves can also be protected from wind and rain, and the arrow rain against the enemy is just child's play for him.
"Smiling Proud Jianghu" wrote: "Dugu Jiujian's 'Breaking Arrow' hit thousands of hidden weapons with one move, thousands of points, there is a difference in order, but the sword is too fast, and it is as if it was issued at the same time." This sword move must be hit with every stab, and only a slight stab is missed, and the enemy's hidden weapon will shoot itself. Ling Hu Chong's style was not practiced, but the eyes that stabbed people slowly moved closer, after all, it was far easier than hitting the hidden weapons that had been accumulated, and he stabbed out thirty swords, and thirty swords stabbed thirty eyes. "When Ling Hu Chong didn't practice this trick, he could easily blind the eyes of more than a dozen good players on the rivers and lakes, and Pei Min could shoot down the sharp arrows shot by Hu Ren's strong bow, so if he singled out the opponent, it would not be difficult to blind the opponent's eyes. Therefore, during the reign of Tang Wenzong, he issued an edict to officially call "Li Bai's poetry, Zhang Xu's calligraphy and Pei Min's swordsmanship" as the three uniques. It's a pity that Pei Min's swordsmanship can't be seen now, but from the flying flower and leaf picking stunt performed by Shang Ke, the heir of the Mo family, it can be seen that General Pei's swordsmanship has been superb, and it can also be inferred from Li Bai's poems and Zhang Xu's words that Pei Min's swordsmanship is naturally wonderful.
General Pei is not only very skilled in Diaoling, but he is also a marksman like Li Guang. Pei Min once guarded Beiping. At that time, there were many tigers in Beiping, and Pei Min once shot 31 tigers in one day. Therefore, Yan Zhenqing's poems such as "One shot is a hundred horses, and then ten thousand people are opened." The Huns did not dare to be the enemy, and they called each other back" is by no means flattery and flattery. Pei Min was a very famous figure at that time. Li Bai had learned swords from him. Wang Wei also gave him a poem: "The sword on the waist is seven stars." Carved bow on the arm. Seeing that the captives were captured in the clouds, I knew that there was a general in the sky. ”
In addition to shooting tigers, it is reported that Pei Min also shot large spiders. Legend has it that while he was walking in the mountains, he came across a large spider like a wheel, and the spider net hung down like a piece of cloth. The spider was connected to the net, and Pei Min was almost restrained. Pei Min "shot him with a bow" and took down a few feet of silk from the spider web and collected it. When his subordinates were wounded, he "cut them off and put them on the spot." The bleeding stops".
Pei Min is proficient in bows and horses, proficient in a variety of weapons, and his kung fu has reached a supernatural state. It's just that because the official history has not been biography for him alone, and the novelists have not paid attention to him, so little is known about his legendary experience. However, through the excavation of data, it can be known that Pei Min was a general with a rich and legendary experience in ancient China.
There are two well-known Tang poems written by famous Tang Dynasty poets - "Gift to General Pei" (Yan Zhenqing): the great monarchy is Liuhe, and the fierce general is Qing Jiuyuan. If the war horse is like a dragon and a tiger, Teng Ling is so strong. The general is in the Eight Wilderness, and Xuan He is heroic. The sword dance is like a lightning dance, lingering with the wind. Climb high and look at the Tian Shan Mountain. Bai Yun is Cui Wei. Enter the battle to break the arrogance, and the prestige is magnificent. One shot and a hundred horses down. Shoot again. The Huns did not dare to be the enemy, and they called each other back. If you succeed in repaying the Son of Heaven, you can draw Lintai. "Gift to General Pei" (Wang Wei) has a seven-star sword on his waist, and a bow carved on his arm. Seeing that the captives were captured in the clouds, I knew that there was a general in the sky.
And the poet immortal Li Bai is Pei Min's swordsmanship disciple, Li Bai is not only brilliant, but also very clever in his swordsmanship. He is "fifteen good swordsmanship" and "swordsmanship is self-mastered". The attainments are extraordinary. According to statistics, the word "sword" appears 107 times in Li Bai's poems in "Quantang Poems", excluding the "Sword Pavilion" as a place name 3 times, "Sword Wall" 1 time, and the "sword" of weapons is still as many as 103 times. The sword "Gong" appears 1 time, "Wu Hook" 1 time, "Wu Hong" 1 time, "Zhan Lu" 1 time, "Ganjiang" 1 time, "Mo Ye" 1 time, "Qingping" 2 times, "Autumn Lotus" 2 times, "Frost Snow" 2 times, "Dagger" 3 times, "Longquan" 4 times. In total, "sword" appeared 118 times ("Wu Hook Shuang Xueming", "Empty Zhan Lu Sword", "Sword Flower Autumn Lotus Light Out of the Box", "Humble Wife Mo Evil Sword", and "My Family Qingping Sword" were counted as 1 time respectively), distributed among 106 poems, accounting for about 10% of the total number of poems. It can be seen how much Li Bai loves swords.
"Miscellaneous Lyrics? White Horse Chapter "Tang? Li Bai: Dragon Horse Flower Snow Hair, Golden Saddle Wuling Hao. Autumn frost cut jade sword, sunset pearl robe. Cockfighting is a multiplication, and Xuan Gai is high. The bow destroys the Yishan Tiger, and the hand is connected to Mount Tai. After drinking, compete for style, three cups of treasure knife.

Kill one person in ten steps, and don't stay for a thousand miles. Brushing off the clothes and going away, hiding deep with the name. Idle over the letter tomb drink, take off the sword and kneel forward. will scorch Zhu Hai and persuade Hou Huan. Three cups of Turannuo, Wuyue is light.

The bones of the arson are fragrant, and he is not ashamed of the world. Who can write Your Excellency, the white head is too mystical.
"Ancient Style" Tang? Li Bai: The sword is a double dragon, and the snowflakes shine on the hibiscus. The essence of light shoots the heavens and the earth, and the thunder is unstoppable. As soon as I went to the gold box, I lost my respect. The wind has been extinguished for a long time, so it is the front. Wu water is deep, and Chu Mountain is thousands of heavy. Male and female will never be separated, and the gods will meet.
"Harmony and Lyrics? Hu No Man's Walk "Tang? Li Bai: The wind blows the frost and the seaweed wither, and the muscles are strong and strong. There were 300,000 soldiers of the Han family, and the general was also the leader of Huo Yao. The meteor white feather is inserted around the waist, and the sword flower autumn lotus light is out of the box. The heavenly soldiers shine on the snow under the jade pass, and the captured arrows shoot golden armor like sand. The clouds, dragons, winds and tigers are all handed back, and the enemy can be destroyed when Taibai enters the moon. The enemy can be destroyed, the head is destroyed, and the intestines of the beard are involved in the blood. Hanging Hu in the sky, buried next to Hu Zisai. Hu no one, Han Daochang, His Majesty's life is three thousand frosts. But the song is big and the wind is flying, and the warriors are guarding the Quartet. Hu no one, Han Daochang.
The second protagonist in this work, the poet fairy Li Bai. The tenderness of a delicate wife and the joy of a child's knee can't keep him. He never wanted to be a "winged bird" and "even a branch", and all his life he loved going out, making friends, drinking, and loving mountains and rivers. As a result, the Tang Dynasty poetry circle lacks a prince of love songs, but there is a bold poet immortal.
Speaking of Li Bai, who is called a generation of poets and immortals by later generations, is more talked about as a legendary story of fairy bones and courage, not about the powerful, and about Li Bai's emotional world. A lot of people don't know much about it. Li Bai's friend and biggest fan of Li Bai Wei Hao (also known as Wei Wan). In the "Preface to Li Hanlin's Collection" written for Li Bai, it is said: "(Li) Bai began to marry Xu. gave birth to a girl, and a man was called Mingyue Slave. The woman married and died. and together with Liu, Liu decides; He was married to a woman in Lu, gave birth to a son called Po Li, and finally married Yu Zong. ”
It can be seen that Li Bai has been combined with four women in his life. For Li Baiyi's two marriages, Wei Hao used two words "marry"; For the two loves in Li Bai's life, Wei Hao used two "he" words. This indicates. Li Bai's two loves before and after belong to a formal marriage. And the two loves in the middle are not formal marriages, but just a "male and female" relationship.
Among the poets of the Tang Dynasty, Li Bai's love was the latest to come, Li Bai was born in the Tang Dynasty's Anxi Protectorate Broken Leaf City, and later moved to Jiangyou, Sichuan. At the age of five, he read Taoist classics, at the age of ten, he read the hundred schools of thought, and at the age of fifteen, he read books and practiced swordsmanship. After traveling all over the famous places in Shu. At the age of twenty-five, Li Bai went out of Sichuan with a sword. Walk into the Central Plains. At this time, Li Bai, who was already an older youth, began his love life.
Li Bai's first wife, Xu. Twenty-seven-year-old Li Bai lit the red candle in the cave room for the first time, and the bride was the granddaughter of Xu Yushi, the former prime minister of the dynasty. The young couple raised their eyebrows, respected each other like guests, and gave birth to their daughter Pingyang and son Boyu. However, Wenwenxiang failed to keep Li Bai's footsteps, he still roamed in all directions, climbed mountains and waters, begged immortals to visit the Tao, and drank and wrote poems. "Three hundred and sixty days, drunk like mud every day. Although she is a white woman of Li, she is too often a wife. "Zhou Ze, who lived too often in the Later Han Dynasty, lived in the palace and was not close to his wife and concubines. Li Bai used "too often wife" to ridicule his young wife. Li Bai, who wandered in other places, loved his child, and once sent a poem to his second son, "The delicate girl is Pingyang, and she has a younger brother and shoulder to shoulder." Under the double row of peach trees, the flowers are folded and leaning on the edge of the peach. I can't see the flowers, and the tears are like springs. "Thirteen years after Li Bai and Xu were separated, Xu died.
The second wife, Liu, can be said to have a bad chance, a discordant temperament, and a short marriage, that is, Cheng Laoyan. The third lady has an ominous name. The lady gave birth to a son, Po Li, who died four years later. During this period, in the first year of Tianbao, Tang Xuanzong summoned Li Bai to Beijing and was awarded the title of Hanlin Bachelor. Li Bai in Nanling, Anhui Province, was overjoyed when he heard the news, cooked chicken and wine, sang and got drunk, "Look up to the sky and laugh and go out, how can my generation be a Penghao person." The proud Li Bai ignored the resentment in the eyes of his wife, and ignored the detachment of the child.
The only love story is also passive: there is a romantic story that "a thousand dollars buy a wall" has to be said. After Li Bai resigned and left Beijing, he gathered in Bianliang with Du Fu and Gao Shi, and the three major poets climbed the stage in Liangyuan together, drank and wrote poems. Du Fu wrote "Repatriation", Gao Shige "Ancient Liang Xing", and Li Bai wrote "Liang Yuanyin" on the wall.
After the poet left, a young and beautiful woman in white came with a maid, stood in front of the poem wall, chanted repeatedly, and was deeply moved by the heroic poetry and the calligraphy of the dragon and the phoenix. The bartender saw that the white wall was graffiti, and held a cloth to wipe it, but was stopped by the woman in white. She used a thousand taels of silver to buy the poetry wall and kept the "Liang Yuanyin" on the wall. Li Bai married the Xiangguo of Wu Zetian and the talented daughter of Liang Yuan. Mrs. Zong loves poetry and writing like Li Bai, believes in Taoism, is like-minded, and falls on the jade plate.
Li Bai's more than ten poems of "gifting", except for the one "Too Chang Wife", are all written for Mrs. Zong. During the "Anshi Rebellion", Li Bai, who was living in seclusion in Lushan, ignored the dissuasion of Mrs. Zong, defected to King Yong, and wanted to establish a meritorious career in supporting the army and the king of Qin. "When I went out, my wife forcibly pulled my clothes and asked me how many days I would return from my westward journey. If you wear the gold seal when you return, Mo Xue Su Qin will not get off the plane. Who knew that King Yong lost power in the struggle for the throne, and Li Bai was involved in this unexpected political struggle and was imprisoned. Mrs. Zong ran up and down, telling her grievances, and Li Bai was finally pardoned. Li Bai once wrote a poem in prison, saying that Mrs. Zong rescued her like Cai Wenji pleaded with Cao Cao. "I cried when I heard it, and I cried into the house. Duojun and Cai Yan asked Cao Gong in tears. ”
In the era when Tang Xuanzong was so promiscuous that he openly accepted his daughter-in-law as his concubine, Li Bai was inevitably criticized by the literati in the Tang Dynasty. He also drank and prostitutes, leaning on red and green, but he never showed mercy. The most scolded by later generations is Li Bai's "Dongshan Yin", saying that he and Xie Anbi prostitute of the Eastern Jin Dynasty three hundred years ago. "On the east mountain with a prostitute, I was sad and thankful. My prostitute is like a flower moon today, and his prostitute is barren and cold. Three hundred years old after the dream of the white chicken, he sprinkled wine and poured it on the king. In fact, the real Li Bai didn't disdain drinking and prostituting at all, but he had no ambitions, a Mohist ultimate swordsmanship, and a pride that could be devoted to the blood of the heavenly poet, but what he got was depressed, and he could only sigh that his luck was bad. It's just a matter of drinking and prostituting to escape.
Li Bai is Li Bai. The tenderness of a delicate wife and the joy of a child's knee can't keep him. He never thought of being a "winged bird" or a "lizhi". Throughout his life, he loved going out, making friends, and drinking. I love mountains and rivers. As a result, the Tang Dynasty poetry circle lacks a prince of love songs, but there is a bold poet immortal.
Their work is to write the sword saint Pei Min and the poet immortal Li Bai as the secret heirs of the Mo family, and the whole work focuses on the friendship between Pei Min and Li Bai, who are also teachers and friends, and makes these two heroic and dry Tang Dynasty two uniques, vivid. is also interspersed with Li Bai's love in the middle, which is also lingering. Another unique Zhang Xu also appears frequently and is the main supporting role in the work. At the same time, Yan Zhenqing, Wang Wei, Wu Daozi, and other great poets and writers of the same era have dabbled, among which the great calligrapher Yan Zhenqing has written a special book.
Yan Zhenqing was born in the Yan family in Jingzhao Wannian (now Xi'an, Shaanxi), and was the fifth grandson of Yan Shigu. Yan Zhenqing, the word Qingchen, the name and the word coincide, and the hope of the father can be seen here. Yan Zhenqing's life. It is precisely along this established spiritual track that we seek truth and clarity. In his life, he served as a minister of the four dynasties of Xuanzong, Fuzong, Daizong, and Dezong, and even sacrificed himself for the Tang Dynasty. Killed. Yan Zhenqing's monument is often written from the cloud "Langya Zhenqing", because of his ancestral home in Langya, Shandong. His father was precious. Wu Zetian awarded the first year of the judgment of Gao Di, awarded Quzhou to join the army, and the history of the long Anwei and the prince literature, with the name of grass and so. Almost as unfortunate as his father, the three-year-old Yan Zhenqing also tried the bitterness of "young orphans" and was trained by his mother Yin. This kind of fate may be the cornerstone of the emperor's talent. Yan Zhenqing, who has been honed out of diligence and hard work, is already "a little good Confucianism, filial piety and self-reliance." Poor and lacking paper pens, sweeping the walls with yellow clay, learning calligraphy, attacking the scriptures is exquisite, and the words are superlative."
In the twenty-second year of the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, Yan Zhenqing was promoted to a scholar at the age of twenty-six, and was promoted to a department (an examination subject temporarily set up by the imperial court for talents with specialized talents in order to seek escape), and smoothly embarked on a career at the top of the ranks. He served as the secretary of the Chao Sanlang, the secretary of the Provincial Writings Bureau, and the lieutenant of Liquan County, and arrived in Luoyang in the second year of Tianbao to visit Zhang Xu.
In the ninth year of Tianbao, Yan Zhenqing was transferred from the inspector of the history of the court to the history of the court, and served as an official in the procuratorate, one of the three courts under the stage of the court. During this period, when Yu Shi Jiwen framed Song Yu (the son of Prime Minister Song Jing) for his personal resentment against Luo for the crime of weaving, Yan Zhenqing dared to fold in the face: "Why should I be angry for a while, and want to endanger Song Jing?" Prime Minister Yang Guozhong and his henchmen regarded Zhenqing as an alien, and finally transferred him out of Beijing in the twelfth year of Tianbao and demoted him to Pingyuan Taishou. This is where the world name "Yan Ping" comes from.
Yan Zhenqing has a sensitivity in politics. When the rebellion in An Lushan first appeared, Zhenqing built the city, dug deep into the city, collected Ding Zhuang, and stockpiled grain and grass to prevent it. However, every day, he was drinking on a boat with the guests, using the illusion of not asking about current affairs to relieve An Lushan's suspicions. Pingyuan County originally belonged to the jurisdiction of An Lu Mountain, and An Lu Mountain was always secretly spying on the secrets, but in the end, he thought that Zhenqing was a scholar and no longer suspected it. The comic ending is that in the fourteenth year of Tianbao, Anlu Mountain rebelled, "Heshuo fell, and the city of Duyuan was guarded, so that the soldiers joined the army Li Ping". Just when Tang Xuanzong muttered sadly: "In the twenty-four counties of Hebei, there is no loyal minister?" Li Ping's performance undoubtedly gave Xuanzong a booster, he looked around, half with emotion and half with approval, and said: "I don't know how Zhenqing is like a person, what he does is like this!"
In the struggle against Anlu Mountain, Yan Zhenqing was fierce. He quickly expanded from the original 3,000 soldiers to 10,000 men, and chose commanders and good generals, and some Taishou and Changshi also returned to the public. At that time, his cousin Yan Gaoqing was Changshan Taishou (the seat of governance is in present-day Zhengding, Hebei), and he rebelled against the rebellion behind Anlu Mountain. The seventeen counties of Hebei returned to the imperial court, and all the six counties of Anlu Mountain were only six counties, including Yang and Lulong. Yan Zhenqing was promoted as the leader of the coalition alliance, commanding 200,000 troops, overpowering Yan Zhao, and the military prestige was greatly shaken. In the fifteenth year of Tianbao, the envoy of Hebei Province was invited to investigate and collect envoys, and General Lee Kwang-pil was the envoy of the eastern section of the Ho Ho to attack the thieves. During this period, Yan Zhenqing once commanded the divisions of the three counties of Pingyuan, Qinghe (the county is in the southeast of present-day Nangong, Hebei), and Boping (the former site is in the western part of present-day Shandong) to fight against the thieves, beheading 10,000 enemies, capturing more than 1,000 people, and causing a great shock.
In 756 AD, Li Heng, the son of Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, ascended the throne in Lingwu (now southwest of Lingwu in Ningxia) as the Liufu Sect. Yan Zhenqing visited the secretary of the Ministry of Industry and Dr. Zhenshi, and re-recruited envoys to Hebei. An Lushan took advantage of the opportunity of Su Zong's transfer of troops from Hebei, and took advantage of the opportunity to send officials Siming and Yin Ziqi to attack Hebei urgently, and the troops surrounded Qin: In October, Yan Zhenqing was forced to abandon the county and cross the Yellow River. After all kinds of dangers, from the second year of Zhide to Emperor Fengxiang, he was appointed by the Ministry of Constitution (Criminal Department) and moved to Doctor Shi. At that time, the order of the Tang Dynasty was chaotic, and there was no time to care about many, but Yan Zhenqing was "as good as usual", and those who did not conform to the system were all straightforward, so they were jealous of the history. He once entered the court as a squire in the criminal department, and later became a long history.
In the first year of Dai Zongbaoying, the fifty-four-year-old Yan Zhenqing was recalled from Sichuan to the capital, visited the household department, and the following year changed to the official department, and later changed to Shangshu Youcheng. In the second year of Guangde (764), Yan Yiqing was awarded the title of Duke of Lujun, from which the name "Duke of Lu" came from. However, due to the resentment of Prime Minister Yuanzai, Yongtai was degraded out of Beijing in the second year. Later, Yuan was convicted and reprimanded, and Yan Zhenqing re-entered the court as a secretary of the ministry. Yan Zhenqing is upright, honest and honest, and solves difficulties for the people. As early as when Israel was supervising the history of the envoy to the river and the river, there was an unjust prison in Wuyuan (now in the east of the river in Mongolia), which was unresolved for a long time, and the weather was dry and rainless. As soon as the unjust case was decided, it happened to rain. The people felt his kindness and called this timely rain "the rain of history." When he was a magistrate in Pengzhou and Fuzhou, he was also praised by the people for his relief of disasters and the treatment of irrigated fields. In the first year of the founding of Dezong, Duke Lu was seventy-one years old. This well-known veteran of the Four Dynasties, because of his integrity, was still not tolerated by Prime Ministers Yang Yan and Lu Qi.
The most powerful scene in Yan Zhenqing's life was the struggle with Li Xilie in his later years. The Huaixi Festival made Li Xilie plot against him and captured Ruzhou (now Linru, Henan) in the fourth year of Jianzhong. Because Lu Qi wanted to avenge his personal grievances, he suggested sending Yan Zhenqing to Xuan to persuade him, saying that Zhenqing was "believed by the Quartet, and if he goes to confess, it is not up to the labor master." Yan Zhenqing went to Xuzhou (now Xuchang, Henan) to meet Li Xilie, and before the decree was fulfilled, the rebel envoy reprimanded Lu Gong, and ordered more than 1,000 soldiers to draw their swords and force him. However, Yan Zhenqing's face did not change, and Li Xilie had to take everyone away and detain Lu Gong as a hostage. Li Xilie used all kinds of means to threaten and lure, and even dug a pit in the courtyard of Yan Zhenqing's residence, threatening to bury him alive, in a vain attempt to force him to obey and use it for his own purposes. Yan Zhenqing was unyielding and severely reprimanded, and he sneered and said to Li Xilie: "Why bother so much, just lend me a sword, and you will see the pleasure!" Li Xilie sent people to the court to collect salaries, saying: "If you can't bend to the grain, you should be burned to death!" Yan Zhenqing was not afraid, and got up to the fire, but it was Li Xilie's men who grabbed him. Li Xilie had no choice but to instruct Yan Zhenqing to kill Yan Zhenqing in August of the first year of Zhenyuan (785) in Longxing Temple, Caizhou (now Runan, Henan).
Yan Zhenqing spent half of his life in the complex struggle between the sand and the imperial court. He dedicated all his loyalty to the Tang Dynasty and was in fact a loyal and honest minister. He spent the other half of his time in books, studying art, literature, and calligraphy, which he created for himself a beautiful and quiet spiritual space. Yan Zhenqing is the most dazzling and brilliant art leader in the history of Chinese calligraphy, and many of the laws he left behind are the most admired, admired, worshipped, and imitated by the Chinese book forum. The best model of the immersion. (To be continued......)
