The story of getting carried away

Ruan Ji, a native of the Chenliuwei family (now Weixian County, Henan Province), also known as Sizong, was a famous poet in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. He lost his father when he was young and his family was poor. But he was diligent and studious, and eventually became a famous hermit at that time. Ruan Ji was originally very ambitious and hoped to make a difference in politics. However, he was very dissatisfied with the ruling Sima clique and did not dare to express his opinions and opinions clearly. He had to adopt a prudent and self-protective attitude, or study behind closed doors; or indulge in the mountains and rivers; or get drunk or remain silent. In addition, he also wrote poems to express his inner thoughts. For example, in the eighty-two famous "Poems of Praise of Love", Ruan Ji used circuitous and implicit language to express his concern for the country and his feelings of escaping from the world. His good friend Ji Kang, like him, was also a famous writer at the time, and he also had a contemptuous and disgusting attitude towards the rule of the Sima family. In addition to Ji Kang, Ruan Ji's friends include Shan Tao, Xiang Xiu, Liu Ling, Wang Rong and his nephew Ruan Xian. The seven of them often get together under the bamboo forest in Shanyang, chatting, drinking, composing poems, and playing the piano. They laugh wildly when they are happy and cry bitterly when they are unhappy. They are known as the "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest" by the world. Among the seven people, Ruan Ji is probably the craziest, especially when he is drunk, he often laughs and laughs erratically. Therefore, when describing him in the history books, it is said that "when he was proud, he suddenly forgot his body."
