2. Fan Zhongyan, a native of Wuxian, Suzhou. Huang You worked in Qingzhou for three years (105 1). Fan Zhongyan. As a famous politician, strategist and writer in the Northern Song Dynasty, Fan Zhongyan arrived in Qingzhou in his later years. He has been in office for less than two years, but he has done something practical for the people of Qingzhou.
After the failure of the "Qingli New Deal", Fan Zhongyan was first demoted to Dengzhou. It was during that period that he wrote the famous Yueyang Tower. In three years, Huang You was transferred to Qingzhou. When he arrived in Qingzhou, he met the problem left by Fu Bi: Fu Bi was kind to foreigners, which led to a large number of foreign victims stranded in Qingzhou, which led to the skyrocketing food prices. At the same time, according to the regulations of the court at that time, Qingzhou people have to pay the imperial grain to Liaocheng today, which is a long way and miserable. Fan Zhongyan came up with a way: let Qingzhou people sell food locally, take money to Liaocheng to buy food, and pay the court food on the spot. This not only saves the people from the pain of long-distance transportation of grain, but also stabilizes the food price in Qingzhou.
In addition, Fan Zhongyan left a medicine for Qingzhou. At that time, there was a kind of "pink eye" in Qingzhou, which was very popular and had been incurable. Fan Zhongyan collected prescriptions everywhere and studied them carefully with doctors, and made Qingzhou White Pill, which effectively cured pinkeye. The clear spring for preparing pills was named "Liquan" by Fan Zhongyan. To commemorate James Li's contribution in treating pinkeye, Fan Zhongyan also built a pavilion on the James Li. Later, people called this pavilion "Fan Gongting". There is also "Fan Gongting Park" in Qingzhou today.
3. Ouyang Xiu, whose real name is Yongshu, was named Drunken Weng, and also named Liu Yiju, a native of Luling (now Yongfeng County, Jiangxi Province). He participated in the discussion of state affairs from official to official to deputy prime minister. He is also a famous writer and historian. Ouyang Xiu was also exiled to Beijing after the failure of the "Qingli New Deal". He first went to Chuzhou and wrote the well-known Preface to Drunk Pavilion, leaving a famous sentence for later generations: "Drunk is not in the wine, but between the mountains and rivers." That year, he was 40 years old, when most people were ambitious, but he was tired of officialdom. Later, the court revived him, but he was already interested in literature. Thus, he inherited the ancient tradition of China initiated by Han Yu and Liu Zongyuan, led the famous "Poetry Innovation" movement and became a literary leader. This literary leader is really a bit unruly. He even wore purple clothes at the emperor's funeral. He was dismissed for this, first demoted to Bozhou and then transferred to Qingzhou. Before arriving in Qingzhou, Ouyang Xiu was very reluctant. Because he has made up his mind to retire from the mountain forest, he wrote to resign three times in a row. The emperor issued six imperial edicts urging him to take up his post and gave him the post of minister of war. The imperial edict was written by Wang Anshi, who led Ouyang Xiu to Qingzhou for various reasons. As soon as he arrived in Qingzhou, Ouyang Xiu was attracted by the landscape of Qingzhou. Ouyang Xiu's governance of Qingzhou is really like cooking small and fresh. He spends all day between mountains and rivers and is seldom busy with official business.
