"Among these people, there is an old man with three locks of beard, a rosy complexion, and a scholar's crown... His name is Fu Qingzhu. He not only has exquisite medical skills and is unparalleled in the world, but is also good at martial arts. In addition to his profound attainments in Wuji swordsmanship, he was also a famous calligrapher and painter, and was a great figure in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties."

Above. The excerpt is excerpted from Liang Yusheng's martial arts novel "Seven Swordsmen". This novel should be many people's youth memories, and the first-generation master Qingzhu in it is also a very representative figure.
Fu Qingzhu is quite chivalrous, "righteousness cannot be established without chivalry, and chivalry cannot be accomplished without righteousness." In fact, Fu Qingzhu has a prototype in history. He is Fu Shan, a great scholar of the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties.
Fu Shan
During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, a new star rose in the literary world. Fu Shan was born in a family of officials and scholars. He showed extraordinary intelligence and intelligence since he was a child. He could recite the poems after reading them several times.

When he grew up, Fu Shan was an encyclopedic scholar. He had extensive experience in Confucian classics, pre-Qin studies, Buddhism and Taoism, medicine, calligraphy, and painting. He has profound attainments in , poetry, phonology and even martial arts. His breadth of interests and great achievements are rare in the world.
However, what makes Fu Shan most popular among the people is not his knowledge, but his national integrity. Fu Shan, together with Gu Yanwu, Huang Zongxi, Wang Fuzhi, Li Yong and Yan Yuan, is known as the "Six Masters of the Early Qing Dynasty". Next, let’s take a look at what the life of a “grand master” is really like.
I am Fu Qingzhu. I lived in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, which was a turbulent era.
My academic spirit should also come from my ancestors. I was born in a scholarly family, and both my great-grandfather and grandfather held important positions in the imperial court. When I was young, I studied under Yuan Jixian. I respected my teacher very much. He was a rare upright minister at that time. However, because he was an honest official, he was framed by the powerful minister Wei Zhongxian.
After the limelight of the case passed, I felt that the official career was boring, so I turned around and found a temple to cultivate myself. During this period, I lived a particularly comfortable life. I stayed with books every day and read carefully, and thus I mastered a lot of knowledge. But the good times did not last long, and my country was destroyed.

The country was destroyed, but I still lived on in the world. The new court forced the people to shave their heads, so I became a monk; the new court wanted to appoint me as an official. , I call it a disease. In short, resisting the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty will always be my belief.
The rest of my life can be regarded as living for my country, contacting friends who resisted the Qing Dynasty, forming alliances with loyalists, and resisting the new imperial court. But even in this short life, I have trained myself into an all-round person.
I can calligraphy.
There are many people who admire my calligraphy, "Yu Nengxing Temple... Mountain poems are famous all over the world, and Huai people ask for poems, but the threshold is cut off. I also think that Huai people can get rid of injustice and be virtuous." I have studied the calligraphy of Zhao Mengfu and Dong Qichang, and I can already distinguish the fakes from the real ones.

When I study calligraphy, I follow the theory of "Four Nings and Four Nots", "Better clumsy than clever, better ugly. Don’t be flattery, rather be detached than frivolous, rather be sincere and forthright than arrange.” In addition, although I first learned Zhao Mengfu's calligraphy, I was extremely disliked by him. I was originally from the Song Dynasty, so why did I live in the Yuan Dynasty court and be so famous? "Rebellion against Zhou and Confucius cannot be repaired by pen and ink."
I will study Taoism, and I have always called myself a follower of Zhuangzi. When exploring, if you save a word or a half, it will be useful and you can enter the Tao."
I am also good at gynecology and painting, but even though I am well-read and full of knowledge, I still cannot escape the fate of loneliness. I lost my wife in my prime and my son in my old age, which is too sad.
Fu Shan? "Ring Script Banner"
I once had a happy married life, but my beloved wife left me and my son sick at a young age. After my death, my son and I depended on each other.
Fu Mei is very kind to me. "Mei" means longevity. I hope that his life will be full and happy, but his life has been implicated by me, escaping from the war, taking care of the Fu family, supporting the family, supporting the elderly and the young, and even went through jail time with me.
I am proud of my son. We have gone through sixty years of suffering together. We are not only father and son, but also master, disciple and good friend. Fu Mei wrote me the last poem "On her deathbed" before she passed away. Slogans": "Father and son have been in hardship for sixty years, what can we say if God's kindness has not been repaid?", "If you don't go to the West, you will never be born again. I wish you could be at my knees." The son is unfilial and cannot provide for his father until his death!
He still thought of me before he died, and I wrote "Poetry of a Crying Son": "I am eighty years old, and I will stop crying sooner or later. My old bones are relying on you, and you are too late to accept them."
Fu Shan? "Crying Son Poems"
Throughout my life, although I have no fame, I have always followed my original intention. I have no regrets about staying away from officialdom, and I have no regrets about resisting the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty. I will do the same in my next life.
