Tell us that the cultural society was very active at that time.
Zuo Si, courtesy name Taichong, was born in Linzi, Qi State (now Linzi, Zibo), and was a famous writer in the Western Jin Dynasty.
Zuo Si’s family has studied Confucianism for generations, and the family atmosphere is strong. His father, Zuo Xi, has provided Confucian education to Zuo Si and Zuo Fen, brothers and sisters since childhood. But Zuo Si was very naughty when he was a child and didn't like reading. He studied calligraphy by Zhong Yao and Hu Zhao, and also learned the drum and piano, but he failed.
Zuo Xi said to his friend: "Zuo Si doesn't know and understand things as well as I did when I was a child. It seems that he doesn't have much potential." Zuo Si was very sad when he heard this and felt that he was not studying well. He was very hopeless, so he secretly made up his mind to study hard.
Day after day, year after year, Zuo Si gradually grew up. Because of his unremitting study and hard work, he finally became a learned man and wrote very good articles. When he was a teenager, he wrote "Qidu Fu", showing his literary talent.
Later, he forgot about food and sleep, devoted himself to research, and spent ten years writing "Ode to the Three Capitals" based on the customs, customs, and products of the capitals of Wei, Shu, and Wu during the Three Kingdoms period. For a time, wealthy and aristocratic families rushed to circulate and copy copies, which actually caused the supply of paper in Luoyang, the capital, to exceed demand and the price to rise sharply.
Zuo Si's sister Zuo Fen was also talented and famous for her literary talents, but she was ugly. Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty, Sima Yan, admired her literary talents and included her in the harem. In the eighth year of Taishi (AD 272), she was granted the title of Xiuyi. In the later Jin Dynasty, she was granted the title of Noble Concubine, and she was known as Zuo Concubine in the world. Sima Yan was very satisfied with her talent in poetry and often praised her: "The literary meaning of her words, her words are right for Tsinghua University, and everyone who listens to her praises her."

Zuo Si's hometown Linzi was the capital of the ancient Qi State and was once a very prosperous big city. According to "Warring States Policy·Qi Ceyi", Su Qin described the capital of Qi like this: "There are 70,000 households in Linzi...Linzi is very rich and substantial, and its people all play the yu, drums and harp, build buildings and play the harp, and fight cocks and dogs.

On the way to Linzi, the carriages hit each other, people shouldered each other, the folds formed a curtain, the sleeves formed a curtain, the sweat became rain, the family was strong and prosperous, and the ambition was high... "Zuo Si was very proud of the history of his hometown. It is said that in "Qidu Fu" he described the prosperous economy, culture and beautiful scenery of Linzi, the capital of Qi, which is fascinating. Unfortunately, the full text of "Qi Du Fu" has been lost and has not been circulated in the world.
