Zheng Banqiao, China

Zheng Banqiao's life profile Zheng Xie Xie (1693- 1765) was born in Xinghua, Jiangsu. His family was poor when he was a child. His biological mother died when he was three years old. I was taken care of by my wet nurse and studied painting with my father Zheng Mengyang. He lived in poverty by selling paintings in Yangzhou in his early years. Zheng Banqiao was eager to learn and was admitted as a scholar at the age of about 20. He married Xu at the age of 23 and gave birth to a son and two daughters. Life is still difficult. At the age of thirty, his father died. After the age of 30, Zheng Banqiao made a living selling paintings in Yangzhou, during which his only son died unfortunately. He was very sad and wrote poems to mourn. In the next few years, he traveled many times and made many scholars from all over the world. He lived in Yangzhou for ten years and had close contacts with Jin Nong, Huang Shen and others, which had a great influence on his creation. In the tenth year of Yongzheng (1732), 40-year-old Zheng Banqiao went to Nanjing to take the provincial examination and won the prize. In order to go up a storey still higher, he went to Jiao Shan, Zhenjiang for further study. Now, the couplet on Biefeng Temple in Jiao Shan: "Why is the room elegant and there are not many flowers?" It was written by Zheng Banqiao. In the first year of Qianlong (1736), 43-year-old Zheng Banqiao went to Beijing to take the Libu exam. He stayed in Beijing for about a year, hoping to get an official position, but unfortunately he didn't get it. At the age of 50, Zheng Banqiao was appointed as the magistrate of Fanxian County. He attaches great importance to farming and mulberry, observes people's feelings and is deeply loved by local people. In the 11th year of Qianlong (1746), Zheng Banqiao left Fan County and became the magistrate of Wei County. Weixian was originally a prosperous city, but unfortunately there was a great famine and the people lived in dire straits. Just arrived in Zheng Banqiao, my first job was disaster relief. He felt that the bureaucratic system was inefficient, so he privately opened official warehouses to provide disaster relief, and made great efforts to order local wealthy families to take turns to run porridge factories to feed the hungry. He served as an official in Weixian for seven years, and both his management as an official and his poetry and calligraphy reached a new peak. After thirty years of Qianlong (1765), Zheng Banqiao died. 1. The poem of the wet nurse: the gratitude I have paid in my life. The only wet nurse; I hate being rich and late, and then what? Ashamed for a long time; Dead? Pedantic white-haired man? Ugly; Food? Ten million minutes? Like a cake in your hand. 2. "Bamboo Stone": Insist on Castle Peak? Just relax。 Roots in broken rocks; You are still strong after many trials and tribulations, are you in the southwest? The wind. 3.: painting bamboo is overwhelming? , ups and downs of text load; Me today? Willing to write from human law? Must be phoenix tail? . 4. "First Painting Bamboo in Yangzhou": 20? The wine cake is in front, and the spring breeze leans on the drunken bamboo pavilion; Now planting Yangzhou bamboo, Huainan is still green. 5.
