Appreciation of Fan Zhongyan's Silver Lantern

Connect the silver lamp (at the same table as Ouyang Gong)

Last night, I read Book Records. Laugh at Cao Cao, Sun Quan and Liu Bei. Exhausted organs, in vain, only three minutes of the world. I thought about it carefully, and the argument was like * * * and Liu Ling were drunk.

The world is not a hundred years old. Not so stupid and not so old. Only in the middle, some teenagers, endure the name floating. One smells like a daughter, asking how to avoid gray hair.

The main idea of the last film is that when I watched the reflection of the Three Kingdoms last night, I couldn't help laughing at Cao Cao, Sun Quan and Liu Bei. They tried their best to be clever, but in vain, which only caused the world to be divided into three parts. Instead of fooling around like this, it is better to do nothing and get him drunk with Liu Ling. The next film uses the poetry of Bai Juyi's crazy lyrics, and he never lived to be a hundred years old in his life. When you are young, you are not sensible, but when you are old, you will be weak. Only a little youth is the most precious, how can we bear to use it to chase fame and fortune! Even if you are a high official and a millionaire, it is hard to bid farewell to the fate of old age! The whole article is written in pure spoken English with humorous style. It seems to be naked to advocate a negative and inaction view of history, a philosophy of eating, drinking and being merry, and a decadent mood. In fact, it is a record of the poet's extreme depression because of his futile reform. It is difficult to get rid of the lump in the chest, so it must be watered with wine. In a rage, the wine was hot, and he complained to his old friends and said drunken words, which was quite the unspeakable taste of Qin Xue's "full of absurd words and bitter tears".

This is a very different kind of word, especially Fan Zhongyan, a famous minister in the Northern Song Dynasty, who takes the world as his responsibility, which is even more surprising. Almost all the words are written in vernacular, and the words are easy to understand. Shang Kun mainly said that when he was studying in the Three Kingdoms last night, he laughed at the heroes of the Three Kingdoms, such as Cao Cao, Sun Quan and Liu Bei. All their efforts were exhausted, and finally only three points were obtained. Instead of being so thankless, it is better to indulge in drunkenness like Liu Ling. Going to the pool is even more negative. No one is over 100 years old all his life. I was confused when I was young, but I was weak and useless when I was old. Only fleeting youth is the most precious, how can we bear to run out of youth to pursue fame and fortune? Even if you are a very important person or a rich man, what can you do to prevent white hair from climbing on your forehead?

The style of the whole word is fresh and lively, which seems to be a joke, but it makes people feel heavy when reading it. Is this Fan Zhongyan, a politician who is "not happy with things, not sad for himself"? Is this a decadent outlook on life that advocates passive inaction and carpe diem? Let's look at the writing background of this word.

Throughout his life, no matter he served in the local government or the imperial court, even if he was a ruling minister, he dared to denounce the shortcomings of the times, plead for the people, and pursue "being worthy of the sages and learning worthy of the world." However, such a man with lofty ideals was repeatedly attacked and framed, and was expelled from Beijing several times. In the third year of Li Qing (1043), the poet returned to Korea and served as assistant minister (deputy prime minister). He should write to ten things and preside over the New Deal, which is a famous reform in the history of China. Zhong You strives to reform state affairs and enrich Qiang Bing. Unfortunately, the success of the Qingli New Deal was frustrated because of the abandonment of Emperor Injong from beginning to end, the stubborn and powerful conservative forces and the constraints of the ancestral family law. Li Qing, a poet, was once again excluded from Beijing in the fourth year and was ordered to declare Hedong and Shaanxi. From the bleak autumn when yellow leaves fall, to the snowy winter, we have passed through extremely difficult areas with inconvenient transportation. Just as Zhong You encouraged the royal family to trudge, Wang and other conservative forces planned a "prison of beating the government" to "catch all the reformers" and directed at Du Yan and Fan Zhongyan who were involved in politics. As a last resort, Zhong You invited himself to be in power. After the fifth anniversary, he was dismissed from the original Marshal No.4 Road and only changed his knowledge of being an official in Dengzhou. Just imagine, Zhong You died for his country, worked hard for his country, and was upright, but he was not understood. Instead, it has been repeatedly squeezed out by villains. Can he not be wronged or chilling?

The subtitle of this word is "The topic with Ouyang cm". Why pour out your heart to Ouyang Xiu? It turns out that Ouyang Xiu has long been Fan Zhongyan's political confidant. In Renzong's "Jingyou Party Struggle", Ouyang Xiu stood firmly on Fan Zhongyan's side. Fan Zhongyan, who was appointed as Kaifeng House by Yuan Wailang, the official department, was upright and upright, and could not tolerate Lv Yijian's right to run the city. So he criticized state affairs with four theories of official map and emperor's grace. Speaking of the point, the thin theory angered Lv Yijian. He counterclaimed that Zhong You had "exceeded his authority, recommended his cronies and alienated his subjects". Injong prized Lv Xiang and banished Zhong You from Beijing. At that time, Yu Jin and other loyal ministers defended Fan Zhongyan, and Gao Ruoren, the admonition officer, flattered him and said that he would demote Fan. Ouyang Xiu hates Gao Ruoyi, an admonisher, because he has a high position and a good salary, but he doesn't distinguish right from wrong and acts meanly. So he and Gauss wrote an exhortation, denouncing him for pandering to power, adding insult to injury and not knowing that there is shame in the world. Ouyang Xiu was therefore demoted to Yiling. Political hardships, the mutual attraction of noble personality, and * * *' s pursuit of current political innovation have finally made Fan Ou an ally who cares about each other. In the third year of Song Renzong Li Qing, Fan Zhongyan carried out the New Deal, but opponents attacked the reformists and quoted cronies. At this time, Ouyang Xiu, who had been transferred back to Beijing, was appointed as an admonition officer. In order to fight back against the groundless accusations of the opposition and support the celebration of the New Deal, he also wrote the famous "Theory of cronies". It can be seen that Fan Zhongyan and Ouyang Xiu have the same interests and the same enemies.

This word was written around the time when the two men were hit by the same thing in North Korea in recent years. The failure of the New Deal, the experience of * * * and the feeling of * * * naturally made them feel similar. After understanding this point and reading this word again, we suddenly realize that this is a reflection of extreme disappointment, depression and even depression after the disillusionment of the political ideal that the poet fought for all his life. I've been holding back my anger for a long time, so I have to find an outlet to vent it, right? So, when I get angry, I get drunk and get hot. I complain to my old friends who have suffered bad luck and talk about drunkenness. Why not?

In fact, if we think further, we will find that this word certainly gives vent to the poet's resentment, but it also reflects his inner anxiety that time waits for no one. How similar this is to Li Bai's famous phrase "drinking"! "Oh, let a man with spirit take risks where he likes, and never point his golden cup at the moon empty! -What are bells and drums, delicacies and treasures? I hope I stay drunk and never wake up. Ancient sober people and saints have been forgotten, and only great drinkers can be immortalized. " After eight years of "returning the gold", Li Bai still didn't find a way out, so he used the title in this poem to give full play to his grievances. Li Bai's indulgence in wine does not mean depravity. Even this poem shows his desire to show his ambition. "Since God has given talents, let them be employed!" Just so confident! But life is short. "You can't see how lovely hair is in the bright mirror of the high hall, although it is silky black in the morning and turns into snow at night", but the reality is ruthless. So is Fan Zhongyan. "The world is not one hundred years old. Not so stupid and not so old. Only in the middle, some teenagers ",the number of years that can do something big is too small, where can we waste a few times?" "So it's natural to drown my sorrows in wine and express my feelings that time is fleeting and ambition is hard to pay.

Ideologically, Fan Zhongyan's feelings have deep roots. Confucianism's active use of the world is the mainstream of its thought. Not only that, he also went in and out of Buddhism and Taoism, studied the classics of the three religions and tried his best to apply them to the world. This kind of academic vision makes his works profound and colorful, and Lao Zi and Zhuang Zi's thoughts of purity and inaction and contentment with the status quo are also his spiritual refuge to relieve pressure when he is repeatedly hit. At this point, Li and Fan Er are similar. Moreover, scholars at that time generally believed that Ci was the "trail" and "last resort" for entertaining people, and Fan Zhongyan was no exception. When drinking and chatting with old friends, he can't help playing with small words. It should be said that these true and false complaints show his true nature as an ordinary person and make him seem amiable and approachable.

Of course, Fan Zhongyan's adversity, setbacks and even complaints do not mean that he is permanently depressed. Li Qing demoted Fan Zhongyan from Dengzhou for six years, got rid of the disputes between the DPRK and the Party, and temporarily relieved him of the tedious duties of state affairs and border defense, and spent a rare and pleasant three years. He built Baihuazhou and rebuilt the pavilion, always focusing on caring for people's livelihood and suffering, and won the heartfelt love of the people of Dengzhou. At the same time, it ushered in the most important creation in my life. The masterpiece Yueyang Tower and many famous poems were written at this time. This shows that Fan Zhongyan has stepped out of the shadow of depression and depression, and achieved "not being happy with things, not being sad for himself". "Worry about the world first, and enjoy the world later" has been his lifelong pursuit. This is the three-dimensional and comprehensive Fan Zhongyan.
