Translated by Gu Ling

Gu Ling's translation is as follows:

He Dongjun, surnamed Liu, was originally named, and later renamed Yes, that's the word. She is petite, neatly dressed, witty and brave. Liu married Xiaolian as his concubine. Xiao Lian is good at writing articles, proficient in calligraphy and teaching Liu Zuoshi. Liu's handwriting is extremely charming, beyond the average person.

It's just that Liu is free and easy, especially unrestrained, so Xiaolian divorced her and kicked her out of the house. So Liu made friends with wuyue. His expression was exquisite and free from vulgarity, and his words and literary talent were overwhelming.

Qian Zongbo of Yushan admired Liu in his heart, but he had never seen her. In the winter of Chongzhen, Liu visited Qian Zongbo on a boat. At this time, she was dressed in a towel, bow shoes and men's clothes, looking natural and unrestrained, with a gentleman's demeanor under the forest. Qian Zongbo was very happy and left Liu in Ye Tang. They sang poems and feasted for nearly a month.

During this period, he skipped Wu Ge and performed round after round; Xiang Lian and Yutai were sung one after another. Another year passed, and Mr. Qian and Liu visited the West Lake together. Carved "Dongshan Appreciation Collection", the poem focuses on Wei Liu Hedong Jun, and Liu arrived at the lake, so he left.

Later, Liu didn't come after the appointed time, and Mr. Qian invited the guests to make peace with Liu. Liu and Mr. Qian got married in Xinsi on June 7th at the age of 24. Mr. Qian wrote "The First Chinese Valentine's Day Poetry". Please join us in singing. Mr. Qian built a crimson cloud building for Liu Jian behind Banye Hall, almost as immersed in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting as in Zhao Mingcheng's home.

However, Liu has the means to control and dominate Mr. Qian, and Mr. Qian also likes and fears Liu very much. In May (1645), the country fell. He advised Mr. Qian to be a martyr, but Mr. Qian refused. He Dong Jun jumped into the submerged place, but he was pulled and didn't jump.

Liu advised Mr. Qian to be a martyr. Mr. Qian once told Wang Zhijin, a Baofeng person in this incident, and Wang Zhijin told me again. In March of the year of Ding Hai, the imperial court searched for Mr. Qian who secretly opposed the Qing Dynasty. The situation is very critical. Carrying a bag on his back, he carefully delivered meals to Mr. Qian who was hiding under the shadow of swords and swords.

Later, the arrest was cancelled. Both Mr. Qian and Su Shi wrote poems praising Hedong Jun, and even said that "a good wife worries herself". In the winter of Gengyin, Jiangyun Building caught fire unexpectedly, and the fire spread to Ye Tang, and the books and antiques collected in the past were almost burned out.

After Mr. Qian lost his official position, he missed his protege and old friend, but he couldn't meet each other because of mountains and rivers. He Dong Jun wrote a poem saying, "When you get to know your son, you can give him a gift." Knowing the son's success, ask him miscellaneous. "This poem has the style of" The Book of Songs: Warping Up ". After a long time, Hedong Jun was unhappy. They have a daughter who is married. In autumn, Hedong Jun shaved his hair and became a monk.

On May 24th of the following year, Mr. Qian passed away. Qian Ceng, a descendant of the same family, demanded money from Hedong Jun and joined forces to threaten him. He Dongjun was forced to hang himself and died on June 28th. Mr. Qian's son Ai and Mr. Qian's son-in-law Zhao Guan avenged Hedong Jun, and the literati in the village also planned to hold a funeral for Hedong Jun.

Gu Ling, a student of Mr. Qian, lamented: "Hey, from now on, what Zongbo and Wang Zhijin said is true and there is evidence." Mr. Qian's reputation is modest, and his words are also influenced by it. Scholars call him Mr. Muzhai, and Mr. Qian became an old man in his later years. Mr. Qian's disciple Gu Ling wrote an inscription in front of Zhenniang's tomb on July 7, 2008.
