-Zhang Xiaoxiang, the top scholar of Jiaxu Family in Shaoxing in Song Dynasty (1 154).
This is what the traitor Qin Gui said to Zhang Xiaoxiang with a trap after the famous poet Zhang Xiaoxiang won the highest prize. But judging from Zhang Xiaoxiang's talent and contribution, this statement is not bad.
Zhang Xiaoxiang (1132 ——1170) was born in Wujiang, Liyang, Song Dynasty, and was a descendant of Zhang Ji, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. In the 11th year of Shaoxing in Song Dynasty (1 14 1), Jin Wushu invaded Hezhou. At the age of ten, Zhang Xiaoxiang took refuge with his father Zhang Qi and lived in the west of Shengxian Bridge in Wuhu City. Historians call him "young and witty". He is quick in reading, quick in thinking, elegant in writing, unexpected in words, good at poetry, good at writing articles and good at calligraphy. At the age of sixteen, I received my hometown book, and at the age of twenty-three, I won the top prize.
Among them, Jinshi did experience some thrilling twists and turns. The exam is completely dominated by Qin Gui. According to relevant historical records: "When you go to the Imperial Shooting Hall, you should play the name of Jinshi. First of all, Qin Gui plays Wei Shixun in the Proposal, Assistant Minister Tui in the Proposal and Zheng Zhongxiong in the Proposal. The official department has repeatedly abolished the power of Langzhongquan, and Dong and Zhang are detailed officials. Shi Xun and others discussed that (Qin Gui's grandson), who was waiting in the museum, topped the list. An Deyu took off the title from the written record and said, "My Cao Can should be rich." So it was decided to be the first, and the list was not disclosed. He also sent for his son, Bai Qin, the father of Qin Yu. )。 And the trial. Shi Xiang is the first examiner, Zhong Xiong is the second examiner, the arrangement is retirement, and the teacher is detailed. In vain and secretly, I begged that an official should be the first (when we introduced the admission of the top scholar in the Song Dynasty, we once said that an official often failed to get into the top scholar), and even asked the students,' What do teachers and friends admire, what can they do with hypocrisy and what can they do with sincerity'. "From this passage, we can see that the exam has been controlled by a group of people in Qin Gui from all aspects, from all steps and links. Qin Gui is in charge of state affairs, and those people can see its despicable and ugly face by saying "hi" and "climbing over the wall". Lu You also took the exam, but he was rejected by Qin Gui because his theory was restored. This also seems to indicate that the final trial will be held anyway, and the result has been scheduled.
Right here, there are waves and troubles. At the time of the palace exam, Qin Cong, who already knew the test questions, seemed to have answers. He said, "Since the third generation, vulgar Confucianism has been guided by people, but it has been committed to this. It is never right to tell the truth, but it is never sincere to speak, and it is never sincere to speak, ruling the country. However, those people in the world have inadvertently forgotten this festival. .............................................. Zhang Xiaoxiang didn't know everything behind it. He said with his own belief: "If you go there, it will be difficult for this country to move forward. Your majesty will eat snacks, and you will consider it. God bless you. It is only an old hand in virtue, with the same ambition, and it is quiet, which leads to peace and harmony in all directions. Although it is impossible for the three generations of Yao and Shun. " Finally, hitting the floor, he said quietly, "Today, in the imperial court, there was a big storm, but Zhao Zhixin was unmoved, with the blade in front and Liu Zhilve alone. It is also true that ministers entrust their quality to the monarch. They are willing to take this as the standard and cherish the people they admire. Now that it has been arranged properly, Jinshi has made a plan. Although the plan is obviously better than that of Qin Feng, Wei Shixun and others still take Qin Wei first and then. "。 However, when Wei Shixun and others presented the strategies to Song Gaozong Yu Lan in the order of arrangement, Song Gaozong saw Qin Xun's strategies and only felt that "they are all in one language", which was nothing new and tasteless. According to relevant historical records: "Zhang Tingting in the lake liked it very much, but he still didn't solve it. He answered the sacred question with a pen and made 1000 words without adding anything. ""I was surprised that a roll of paper was tall and big, so I tried to read it, read its head and won the grand prize. " Emperor Gaozong especially likes calligraphy, "and calligraphy and painting are vigorous and outstanding, which is suspected of being immortal and is the first choice for relatives." "
This broke the elaborate plot of Qin Gui and his gang, and they felt shocked, disappointed and helpless. At the beginning of singing, those people were still standing there in a daze and never recovered. Zhang Xiaoxiang, who had just put on his official clothes, thanked the emperor and began to thank court officials and examiners one by one. When he came to Qin Gui, Qin Gui said with a smile on his face, "It seems that the emperor not only likes your correct strategy, but also likes your poems and songs. You are really the best. " Then ask him what poetry is, what books are and what dharma is. Zhang Xiaoxiang righteously said, "Bendu's poems are elegant." Good boy, really crazy, so he said sarcastically and covertly, "It seems that all the good things in the world have been occupied." After the separation, ministers also came up to congratulate the newly elected champion. Qin's wife and brother, one of the most important figures in the Qin Party, suddenly proposed to him. Really? Did you hear me right? Cao Yong silly face said it again. You can't hang out with these guys, but people are noisy. There are many people who want to talk to the new champion. Zhang Xiaoxiang pretended that he still didn't hear clearly, so he quickly turned around and left Cao Yong there with an embarrassed face.
On the occasion of the number one scholar, Zhang Xiaoxiang did another thing, which made the Qin Party hate it even more, and wrote a letter to rehabilitate Yue Fei. "The Legend of Faith" said: "First of all, Yue Fei died in prison, courtiers were afraid of disaster, and those who dared to speak were the first, that is, Yue Fei was brave in the world. Once slandered, it will die within ten days, and then the enemy country will rejoice and be defeated and disintegrated, which is not a blessing for the country. Today, the court is wronged, and the world is wronged. Your majesty doesn't know. When you are eager to restore your title, show your kindness to your family, show your loyalty, broadcast it to Chinese and foreign countries, let the loyal soul see the light in Jiuyuan, and be fair and clear to the world. Dieter is tolerant. At that time, Gong was still in the collection office, and he was not an official. Qin Xiangyi avoided it. " So Qin Gui and others want to find out his family background and start looking for revenge. When Qin Gui learned that Zhang Xiaoxiang was the son of Zhang Qi, and Zhang Qi was closely related to Hu Yin, who had always hated him, he immediately said savagely: "Hu Yin's far reprimand (being demoted as Zhou Guoying's deputy envoy) can also make the son of an old friend a champion evil!" At the same time, he instigated Zhang Fu and others to plan two plots. One of them is the right to help falsely accuse Zhang Qi of being a sister-in-law. "The farmer Zhang Qi was ordered by his brother, so he took a life, but he committed a private crime against his sister-in-law, and even got pregnant, so he was killed by a cup. Hu Yin therefore sheltered it. Shao Gui lost his heart and stopped treating him as a brother. Before that, Xiao Xiang returned to a new place, but he was afraid to see it. Yin's character is fierce, treacherous and treacherous, specializing in intimidation ... Although exiled, his power can still make Zhang Qi and his son blessed, and also make the world dare not say Zhang Qi ... and write a letter to Dali Temple in order to cure it. " The real reason is that Zhang Xiaoxiang's uncle Zhang Shao Jianyian went to Xu Jin for three years, was imprisoned for fifteen years, and then offended Qin Gui because of his performance. Secondly, Zhang Fu and others framed Zhao Fen and Zhang Qi as brothers, first arrested Zhao Fen in Dali Temple, where he was "stripped to pieces", which led him to falsely accuse Zhang Jun, Li Guang, Hu Yin and others of "rebellion" and arrest "fifty-three wise men at that time". Fortunately, at this time, Qin Gui was seriously ill, "unable to write" and died soon. Things were found out and a bunch of people got out of prison safely.
First awarded the secretary Sheng Zhengzi, served as secretary lang, author lang, editor-in-chief of Jiyingdian, and China calligrapher. He has served as a number of local officials, but because of his youthful spirit and integrity, he has not been in every place for a long time. The most proud thing is that in the second year of Longxing (1 164), Zhang Jun went north and recommended Zhang Xiaoxiang to stay healthy. Soon, Zhang Jun was dismissed for defeat. Avenue for five years (1 169), in March, when Zhang Xiaoxiang was a bachelor of Xianmo Pavilion, he invited a temple monk to end his official career and died in Wuhu in July and August. Thirty-eight
