Edit this paragraph's introduction to Han Yu
Han Yu (768-82 4), named Tuizhi, from Nanyang (now Meng County, Henan Province). In the eighth year of Zhenyuan (792), he became a Jinshi. During the reign of Emperor Xianzong of the Tang Dynasty, he accompanied Pei Du to quell the rebellion in the Huaixi feudal town. When he was appointed Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, he made an admonition to welcome the Buddha's bones, which angered Xianzong and was demoted to the governor of Chaozhou. Later, during the reign of Emperor Mu Zong, he was called to serve as a wine minister in the Imperial Academy, and he successively served as Minister of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Personnel. He was a famous essayist and important poet in the Tang Dynasty. He and Liu Zongyuan had political disagreements, but this did not affect their joint efforts to advocate the ancient prose movement. They opposed excessive pursuit of form in parallel prose, advocated prose, and emphasized the importance of article content. The poetry world of Han Yu's era had begun to break through the narrow world of Dali poets. Han Yu was even more unique and created a new poetry genre. He is good at using strong and powerful brushstrokes to drive the majestic momentum, mixed with the strange and strange taste, giving the poem a layer of rich and magnificent color, creating a spectacular scene of thunder and lightning. In addition, Korean poetry has the characteristic of "using text as poetry" in art, which also has a considerable influence on later generations. Of course, there are also some grotesque and weird words in Korean poetry, which are not advisable. He is the author of forty volumes of "Han Changli Collection" and ten volumes of "Waiji Collection". The theory of literary creation: He believes that Tao (i.e. benevolence and righteousness) is the purpose and content, and literature is the means and form. He emphasizes that literature is to carry Tao, literature and Tao are unified, and Tao is the main thing. He advocated the study of ancient Chinese literature from the pre-Qin and Han dynasties, and acquired the works of Zhuang Zhou, Qu Yuan, Sima Qian, Sima Xiangru, and Yang Xiong. It is advocated that learning from ancient times should innovate on the basis of inheritance, and insist on "the words must come from one's own" and "the words must be left behind". Paying attention to the moral cultivation of writers, he put forward the theory of nourishing Qi, "when Qi is strong, the words can be short or long, and the voice is high or low" ("Reply to Li Yishu"). Put forward the argument of "if there is injustice, there will be protests". It is believed that the author's dissatisfaction with reality is the reason for deepening the thought of the work. In terms of the style of his works, he emphasizes "strangeness" and uses strangeness as a good thing. Han Yu is listed as the first of the "Eight Great Masters of Tang and Song Dynasties", and he is mentioned together with Du Fu, and is known as "Du Poems in Korean".

He also has new explorations in poetry creation. The so-called "using text as poetry" is unique and uses rhyme to create the poetic style of "reasoning poetry school". Of course, his poems also have the shortcomings of being too diffuse and argumentative, which will have a negative impact on future generations. Han Yu was also an enthusiastic educator. He could go against the trend of the time and actively guide the underachievers in their studies. He "recruited young people to learn" and "became a teacher despite his appearance" (Liu Zongyuan's "Reply to Wei Zhongli's Theory of Teachers' Taoism"), especially Pay attention to education and training of young writers. In his article "Reply to Li Yi's Book", he said: "Those with strong roots will actually... If the Qi is strong, the speech will be short or long, and the voice will be high or low." The so-called "roots" or "Qi" refer to writers. The ideological cultivation and personality cultivation emphasize the importance of the writer's moral cultivation and literary cultivation to do a good job in creation. There are now forty volumes of "Mr. Changli's Collection" and ten volumes of "Waiji Collection". As a martial arts practitioner, Han Yu visited Baijiayan in the northern part of the county many times, and wrote a long poem "Inscribed on the West Baijian" here, which made Xibaijian an important scene in Baijiayan. Thoughts originate from Confucianism, but there are also some deviant remarks. He regarded himself as Confucian orthodoxy and opposed the purity and annihilation of Buddhism and the superstition of theocracy, but he also believed in destiny, ghosts and gods; he praised Mencius for excluding Yang Zhu and Mozi, and believed that Yang and Mo were partial to the orthodox way, but he advocated the use of Confucius and Mozi; he advocated the mutual use of Confucius and Mozi. Zong Kong's family valued the king's way but despised the domineering one; at the same time, they respected the achievements of Guan Zhong and Shang Yang. He criticized the reforms of the two kings' group, but on major issues such as opposing the separatist rule of vassal towns and the monopoly of eunuchs, he was no different from the opinions of the two kings. These complex and contradictory phenomena are reflected in his works.
Edit this section of literary creation
Han Yu’s prose and poetry creations have realized his own theory. His works of various genres such as poems, essays, narratives, biographies, notes, odes, praises, books, prefaces, elegy, sacrificial essays, epigraphs, statements, tables, essays, etc., all have outstanding achievements. The argumentative essay occupies an important position in Korean. Medium and long-length works with the main content of respecting Confucianism and opposing Buddhism include "Yuan Dao", "On the Bone Table of Buddha", "Yuan Xing", "Shi Shuo", etc. Most of them have a strict layout and clear layers.
Essays that ridicule the current situation of society. Short stories such as "Miscellaneous Comments" and "Huolin Jie" have clever metaphors and profound messages; long essays such as "Song of the Poor" and "Jinxue Jie" use the question and answer format, with humorous writing style, unique conception and sharp edge. Bilu. It discusses literary thoughts and writing experiences with diverse genres, changeable writing styles, fantastic images, and superb theories. Narrative writing plays a larger role in Korean. Those who study Confucian classics, such as "Ping Huaixi Stele", use the style of "Shang Shu", "Ya", and "Song", which are grand in length, extremely heavy in sentences, and hearty; "Painting Notes" directly narrates many characters, and the writing style is detached from the "Shang Shu·Gu Ming", "Zhou Li·Kaogong Ji·Zi Renzhi". Those that inherit the historical prose tradition of "Historical Records", such as the famous "Postscript to the Biography of Zhang Zhongcheng", integrate narrative, discussion, and lyricism. Study "Historical Records" and "Hanshu" and describe the characters vividly and uniquely without discussing them, such as "The Epitaph of Wang Jun who tried to comment on Dali", "The Epitaph of Zhang Jun in Qinghe", etc. Memorials to literary friends can highlight the characteristics of different writers, such as "Liu Zihou's Epitaph", "Nanyang Fan Shaosu's Epitaph", "Mr. Zhen Yao's Epitaph", etc. However, among the large number of tombstones and epitaphs, Han Yu also had some "grave flattery" works, which were ridiculed at the time. Among the lyrical essays, one type writes about the deep feelings of flesh and blood, using prose form, breaking the convention of four-character rhyme, such as "The Essay on the Twelve Langs"; the other type writes about friendship with friends and life in adversity, and the four-character rhyme is used, such as "In Memory of Henan Zhang Yuan's Foreign Language" ”, “Honour to Liu Zi”. In addition, letters such as "A Letter to Meng Dongye" and prefaces such as "Preface to Yang Shaoyin" are also masterpieces with a certain appeal. Han Yu also has some other prose works, such as "The Biography of Mao Ying" and "Preface to Shiding Couplet Poems", which are completely fictional and close to legendary novels. Han Yu's prose is full of momentum, with vertical and horizontal opening and closing, odd and even oddities, and clever metaphors. It may be cunning or serious, and its artistic characteristics are diverse. It has swept away the soft and parallel writing style since the Six Dynasties. He was good at discarding the language of his predecessors and refining the spoken language of the time, such as "fly camp dog dog" ("Song Qiongwen"), "similar work but different approach", "both incorporate and learn from each other" ("Jin Xue Jie") and other novel words. More. He advocated "wen follows the order of words", created a written prose language refined on the basis of spoken language, and expanded the expressive function of classical Chinese style. But he also has a kind of arrogant prose. He said that he "cannot give at the right time, only to play with himself" ("Song Qiongwen"), which had a certain influence on later generations. Han Yu is also a famous poet. His artistic features are mainly strange, majestic and grotesque. Such as "Luhun Mountain Fire and Huangfu's Rhyme", "Lunar Eclipse Poetry Imitation of Yuchuan Zi Zu", etc. are weird and profound in content; "Nanshan Poetry", "Yueyang Tower Farewell to Dou Sizhi", "Meng Dongye's Lost Son", etc. The realm is majestic. However, in the pursuit of novelty, Korean poetry often tends to fill in unfamiliar words, idioms, and rhymes. Han Yu also has a kind of simple and natural poems. Korean poetry is in an ancient style and has few modern styles, but there are also excellent verses and quatrains. For example, Qilu "Moved to Languan from the left to show his nephew Xiang", "Answer to Zhang's eleven merits", "Inscribed on Yiliang", Qijue "First sent to Zhang Twelve Pavilions from Tongguan", "Inscribed on the Temple of King Zhao of Chu", etc.

In the Qing Dynasty, Gu Sili and Fang Shiju each had separate annotated editions of their poetry anthologies. Qian Zhonglian's "Anthology of Han Changli's Poetry Series" is a separate annotated version of the poem series. In addition, those who did collation or supplementary annotations for the Han Collection but did not list the main text included Fang Songqing and Zhu Xi of the Song Dynasty, Chen Jingyun, Wang Yuanqi, Shen Qinhan, Fang Cheng and the modern Xu Zhen of the Qing Dynasty.

Edit this paragraph's representative work "Teacher's Theory"
Explanation of the problem
This article can be found in "Mr. Chang Li's Collection". Presented to the author by Li Pan. The purpose is to clarify the way of being a teacher. "From the Wei and Jin dynasties below, people do not want to be teachers. In today's world, people do not hear of teachers; some people laugh at them and think they are crazy. Han Yu ignored the popular customs and committed laughter and insults. He recruited his disciples to study and wrote "The Teacher's Theory" , became a teacher because of his resistance to appearance." (Liu Zongyuan's "Reply to Wei Zhongli's Theory of Teachers")
Original text
Ancient scholars must have teachers. A teacher is someone who teaches, teaches and resolves doubts.
People are not born with knowledge, how can they be free from confusion? If you are confused and do not follow the teacher, it is confusion, and you will not be able to understand it in the end. Those who were born before me, they heard the Tao before me, and I learned from them; those who were born after me, they heard the Tao before me, and I learned from them. My teacher, do you know who was born to me one year or another? Therefore, there is neither high nor low, neither long nor short. Where the Tao exists, the teacher exists. Alas! It’s been a long time since teachers’ teachings were passed on! It’s hard to be clear of confusion! The ancient saints were also far away from others, and they still asked if they were teachers. Today's people are also far away from the saints, and they are ashamed to learn from their teachers. Therefore, the saint is better than the saint, and the fool is better than the fool. The reason why the saint is saint and the reason why the fool is fool are all due to this! If you love your son, you will choose a teacher and teach him; if you are concerned about your son, you will be ashamed of the teacher and confused! The teacher of that boy is the reader who learns the sentences after being taught the book. He is not what I call someone who teaches his way and solves his confusion. I don’t know how to read a sentence, I don’t understand it when I’m confused, maybe I’m a teacher, or maybe I’m not good at it. I haven’t seen the clarity from elementary school but great legacy. Witch doctors, musicians, and people of all kinds of craftsmanship are not ashamed of physiognomists. The clan of scholar-bureaucrats would gather together and laugh at those who said "master" or "disciple". When asked, he said: "He is similar to that year, and the way is similar. A low position is shameful, and a high official is close to flattery." Woohoo! The way of a teacher can no longer be known! Witch doctors, musicians, and people who work in various industries are looked down upon by a gentleman. Now his wisdom is beyond his reach, how strange it is! The sage is the teacher of impermanence, and Confucius is the teacher of Tanzi, Chang Hong, Xiang, and Lao Dan. The disciples of Tanzi were not as wise as Confucius. Confucius said: "When three people are walking together, there must be my teacher." Therefore, the disciple does not have to be inferior to the teacher, and the teacher does not have to be better than the disciple. There is a priority in learning the Tao, and there is a specialization in the art, that's all. Li's son Pan, seventeen years old, was fond of ancient prose, and was familiar with all six classics and biographies of art. Yu Jiaqi was able to practice the ancient way and wrote "Shi Shuo" to teach him. Sending Wen to the Military Order of Heyang
Analysis
This article and "Ma Shuo" are both articles promoting the importance of talents. However, the way of writing is different. The author is very creative in this article, using "As soon as Bole passed through the wilderness of northern Hebei, the horses were empty" as a metaphor for "Dawu Gong was in Heyang, but there was no one in the scholar's hut in the east capital", praising Wu Chongyin's wise vision. He is virtuous and good at recommending talents; he also uses "Private grudges are exhausted" to contrast the rareness and preciousness of Wu Gong "to serve the emperor as civilized warriors under the curtain", which is like "complaint" but actually praise, and is more powerful than positive praise. The article does not directly describe Wen Sheng's talents, but describes from many aspects the "bad" influence that Wen Chushi had on the Eastern Capital after he became an official. On the contrary, it highlights his extraordinary talents, which is very subtle and clever.
Edit this section of the famous work "Horse Theory"
There is Bole in the world, and then there is the thousand-mile horse. A thousand-mile horse often exists, but a bole does not always exist. Therefore, even though there is a thousand-mile horse, it will be carelessly grown and be dead in a stall, never being called as a thousand-mile horse. A horse that travels a thousand miles can eat as much grain or stone as it eats. Those who eat horses don’t know that they can travel thousands of miles and eat. Although this horse is capable of running a thousand-mile, it is not full of food, lacks strength, and its talent and beauty are not visible externally. Moreover, if you want to be like an ordinary horse, you cannot expect it to run a thousand-mile. If the horse is not driven according to the right way, if the food is not used to its full potential, if the horse is singing but the meaning is not understood, then it will approach it with the horse in hand and say: "There is no horse in the world." Woohoo! Is there really no horse? In fact, I really don’t know about horses!
The translation is as follows
There is Bole in the world, and then there will be a thousand-mile horse. A thousand-mile horse often appears, but Bole does not always appear. Therefore, even a strong horse can only suffer humiliation at the hands of servants and die in a stable with ordinary horses, and will not be awarded the title of a thousand-mile horse. A horse that travels thousands of miles a day may be able to eat a stone of grain in one meal. The person who feeds the horse does not know how to feed it according to its ability to travel thousands of miles a day. (So) Although such a horse has the ability to travel thousands of miles in a day, it is not full of food and has insufficient strength. Its talents and beautiful qualities cannot be expressed. If it wants to be equal to an ordinary horse, it cannot be equal, so what? How can you ask it to run thousands of miles a day? Whip it, don't feed it in the right way, and you can't make it fully develop its talents. Listen to it chirping, but don't understand what it means, (just) stand on it with a whip. They came forward and said: "There is no thousand-mile horse in the world!" Alas! Is there really no thousand-mile horse? I'm afraid they really don't know a thousand-mile horse!

Han Yu's tomb is located on the slope of the northern half of Hanzhuang Village, 6 kilometers west of Mengzhou City, Henan Province. This place looks to Taihang in the north and the Yellow River in the south. It is a hilly area. The tomb is tall and surrounded by brick and stone walls, with lush green cypresses, fragrant grass splendens and a forest of jujube trees. In front of the tomb is the Han Yu Temple, a Ming Dynasty building with three entrances to the courtyard. The statue of Han Yu sits in the temple. The tomb of Han Yu was built in the first year of Baoli reign of Emperor Jingzong of the Tang Dynasty (825). The cemetery is located in a hilly area. The tomb is more than 10 meters high. There is an ancestral hall built in front of the tomb, with three dining halls and three gatehouses. There are 13 stone tablets in the temple, recording Han Yu's life and deeds. There are two ancient cypresses in the yard in front of the tomb. It is said that they were planted in the Tang Dynasty. There is an inscription on Qiu Ruhu, the magistrate of Mengxian County during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty: "Two Wonderful Tang Cypresses". The left one is 5 feet high and 1.2 feet in circumference; the right one is 4 feet high and 1.1 feet in circumference. In November 1986, it was announced as a cultural relic protection unit in Henan Province.
Edit this paragraph Han Yu Memorial Hall
Chaozhou Han Yu Memorial Hall is located at the foot of Bijia Mountain in the east of Chaozhou City, Guangdong. In the 14th year of Yuanhe in the Tang Dynasty (819 AD), the famous statesman, thinker and writer Han Yu offended the emperor by proposing to the emperor that he should stop welcoming Buddha's bones from Famen Temple to Chang'an for enshrinement, and was ordered to be executed. Fortunately, Prime Minister Pei Du and others interceded, and he was demoted to the governor of Chaozhou instead. Han Yu spent more than seven months in Chaozhou as a criminal, bringing advanced culture from the Central Plains to Lingnan, running education, driving away crocodiles, and doing many good things for the people. He was regarded as a god by Chaozhou people, who renamed Beacon Mountain Han Mountain, the Crocodile River at the foot of the mountain was renamed Hanjiang River.
In the second year of Xianping of Song Dynasty (AD 999), the Han Temple was established under the initiative of Tongpan Chen Yaozuo. The ancestral temple covers an area of ??328 square meters and is a double-story building with hanging eaves. The lower floor is the exhibition hall, and the upper floor is the "Han Yu Memorial Hall". In the middle of the stone platform in front of the pavilion, there is a flat stone statue of Han Yu more than 2 meters high. The interior is divided into two entrances, front and rear, with two corridors. The rear entrance is built on a platform several meters higher than the forward one, and contains a statue of Han Yu. There is a couplet in the hall: "There are thousands of words to evade the Buddha, and the snow is cold at Blue Pass. From then on, the Confucianism flourished; in the eighth month of the official career, the tide flattened all the crocodiles, and now the fragrance spreads all over Yingzhou." There are 36 inscriptions from the past dynasties in the temple. The earliest one is Su Shi's "Chaozhou Han Wengong Temple Stele", which was moved from the south of the city and placed under the south wall of the main hall. There are two beams and pillars in the temple, and there are also plaques inscribed by the people who renovated the Han Wen Gong Temple. The Han ancestral hall is located near the mountains and rivers, solemn and dignified. In 1988, a new "Shilang Pavilion" was built on the site of the original Shilang Pavilion (Han Yu once served as the Shilang of the Ministry of Justice and was known as "Han Shilang"). Su Shi wrote the famous "Inscription of Han Wengong Temple in Chaozhou" for this purpose, calling Han Yu "the eighth generation of literary scholars" The decline of Taoism has made the world suffer." This has become the conclusion of the world. Surrounded by the inscriptions of Han ancestral halls of past dynasties and Han Yu's handwriting. What is very interesting is the inscription "Preaching and Writing". Due to the special shape of the characters, there are many ways to read it. There is a stele gallery in the garden, which preserves the calligraphy inscriptions of modern celebrities commenting on Han Yu.
However, Yan Jimei, the governor of Huazhou, stopped the work of Huayin County Magistrate Liu Jian due to official business, but still allowed him to temporarily serve as a clerk. A few months later, Yan Jimei was suspended from his job and went to live in an apartment. Liu Jian instigated migrant workers to ask him for their wages for serving the army the year before. Later, the governor thought that Liu Jian did something inappropriate and reported it to the imperial court. The imperial court demoted Liu Jian to Fangzhou Sima. Han Yu happened to be passing through Huazhou. When he heard about this incident, he thought that the two governors were collaborating to bully people, so he wrote to the court to excuse Liu Jian. Han Yu's memorial was left in the palace without processing. The emperor ordered the supervisory censor Li Moumou to investigate the matter and discovered Liu Jian's crimes, so he imposed additional punishments and demoted Liu Jian to a lieutenant somewhere. The imperial court believed that Han Yu was talking nonsense without knowing the truth, and restored him to his original position: Doctor Guozi. Han Yu himself felt that he was very talented, but he was often thrown aside by the court, so he wrote an article "Jin Xue Jie" to comfort himself: Dr. Guozi came to school in the morning, summoned the students, and taught that those who are good at work should Diligence comes from play, success comes from thinking and failure comes from following. We have caught up with the good emperor and study Confucian classics carefully. Don't worry that you will not succeed. Before he finished speaking, someone among the students laughed and said, "What are you doing?" You are fooling us. I have been with you for a long time. You are very devoted to learning the Six Arts, rejecting Buddhist and Lao thoughts that are not in line with the Confucian spirit, and painstakingly summarizing all the classics from ancient times to the present. However, you have neither prestige in public nor any personal relationship. It would be better My friend is demoted at every turn, lives a very poor life, has lost his hair and loosened his teeth. Instead of thinking about these things, you teach others to be like you? The husband said, come here, I just said that you just work hard. As for whether it will be important, that is a matter for the prime ministers. Mencius and Xunzi are both great, but do they not have no chance? Although my articles and comments are not very appropriate now, the emperor and ministers have not dealt with me and are already very attached to me. The people in charge of the government sympathized with him when they saw this article. Considering Han Yu's talent in history, they appointed him as a doctor in Bibu and as a compiler (compiler of history books) in the History Museum. A year later, he was promoted to the title of Zhizhigao (the person who drafts government orders) (probably the human resources official responsible for performance evaluation), and then named Zhongshusheren (more or less, he is also the one who drafts official documents). Some people who disliked Han Yu brought up his past, saying that when Han Yu was demoted to Jiangling Prefecture, Pei Jun, the governor of Jingnan (provincial military and political chief), was very good to him. Pei Jun's son Pei E is very mediocre and tacky. Recently, Pei E went home to visit his father. Han Yu wrote a preface to send him off, calling him Pei Jun (it seems that in ancient times, it was not popular to call sons their father, so he couldn't figure out the details). This kind of talk spread in the imperial court, because Han Yu was demoted to the title of crown prince and right concubine. In August of the twelfth year of Yuanhe (817), Prime Minister Pei Du served as the Huaixi Xuanwei envoy, and also served as the governor of Zhangyi Army (the army is an administrative unit, at the state level, Huang Wenbing, who harmed Songjiang on the Water Margin, lived in Wuwei Army) The envoy asked Han Yu to be his marching commander and gave Han Yu gold and purple clothes. After the two places of Huaixi and Cai were pacified, Han Yu returned to the capital Chang'an with Pei Du in December. For his merits, he was awarded the title of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment (Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, the quota seems to be two), and Han Yu was ordered to write the inscription on the Ping Huaixi stele. This article Most of Han Yu's articles highlighted Pei Du's deeds, but Li Su was probably the one who had the greatest credit for entering Caizhou to capture Wu Yuanji. Li Su was very unconvinced. Li Su's wife ran to the palace and complained that the inscription did not reflect the true situation (Li Su's father was Li Sheng, who had made great contributions, and his wife seemed to be a princess). The emperor ordered that the inscription written by Han Yu be cancelled, and Duan, a Hanlin bachelor, was ordered to cancel it. Wenchang rewrote it and carved it into stone. In Fengxiang near Chang'an, there is Famen Temple. In Famen Temple, there is a True Body Pagoda to protect the country. In the tower, a finger bone of Sakyamuni is preserved. Legend has it that this treasure is opened once every thirty years, and each time it is opened, it will protect the crops. Well, the people are happy and harmonious. In the first month of the 14th year of Yuanhe (819), the emperor asked the eunuch so-and-so to command thirty people to receive the Buddha's bones, which were to be kept in the palace for three days before being sent to various temples.
Both ministers and ordinary people are running to give alms (after all, it only happens once in thirty years. How many thirty years are there in life? Seek peace in troubled times), lest they fall behind and the ordinary people will go bankrupt. He even burned off his hair and arms to follow this trend. Han Yu had always disliked Buddhism, so he published an article "Admonishing the Buddha's Bone Table" (see my other article). Xianzong was very angry after reading this article. One day later, he showed it to the ministers and ordered Han Yu to be severely punished. Pei Du and Cui Qun said: Although Han Yu made you angry and should be sentenced, it was also because he was sincere in his heart and was not afraid of being dealt with by you. Otherwise, why would he be so thankless? Please show your generosity by forgiving him, which will encourage others who write to speak. The emperor said, I can tolerate Han Yu saying that I believe in Buddhism too much. Why did he say that after the Eastern Han Dynasty, emperors who believed in Buddhism had short lives? Isn't this ridiculous? As a minister, he is so arrogant and cannot be forgiven! So everyone was too frightened to speak, so that other officials thought that Han Yu deserved his punishment, and they found an excuse to demote Han Yu to the governor of Chaozhou (now Chaoshan, Guangdong, right? In those days, crocodiles were infested, so it must have been a wild land). Han Yu arrived in Chaoyang and wrote to the emperor again:... Xianzong told the ministers that yesterday I read Han Yu's seal and remembered that he advised me not to accept Buddha bones. I found that he still loved me very much. How could I not know? (Xianzong is a person who is surprised), but as a minister, Han Yu should not say that my life will be short if I believe in Buddhism. I hate his casualness because of this.) Xianzong plans to re-enable Han Yu, so he first calls the ministers Vaccination, I want to see how the ministers react. Prime Minister Huangfu Bo disliked Han Yu's uprightness and was afraid that he would be reused. He was the first to jump out and answer that Han Yu was arrogant and careless after all. He should be transferred to a better state and county, so he was granted the title of governor of Yuanzhou. At first, Han Yu got Chaoyang and went to work. When he asked about the people's concerns, they all said that there were many crocodiles in Qiu Shui in the west of the local area. They were huge and almost ate up all the livestock raised by the people, so the people were very poor. A few days later, Han Yu personally went to see the situation and ordered the judge to hold a pig and a sheep and throw them into the Qiu River. He also made a crocodile sacrifice and told the crocodiles to get out. If they didn't listen, he would send someone to deal with them. Don't regret them. On the night when the blessings were completed, a strong wind suddenly blew in the Qiu River, accompanied by thunder. After a few days, the Qiu River dried up, and the Chaozhou people no longer had to worry about crocodiles. It is a custom in Yuanzhou that men and women work as servants in other people's homes (it is probably because the parents of the boys and girls borrowed money from the rich family and used their children as collateral). If the money is not paid back within the time limit, the worker will be a servant of the rich family forever. servant. After Han Yu arrived in Yuanzhou, he added relevant laws to redeem the minors and return them to their parents. He changed the previous agreement and prohibited the rich from robbing men and dominating women. In the 15th year of Yuanhe's reign, Han Yu was promoted to the position of Guozi Jijiu (president of the National University) and transferred to the position of Minister of War (Deputy Minister of Defense). Just in time, the rebels in Zhenzhou killed the governor Tian Hongzheng and elected Wang Tingmin as acting military and political chief. The court asked Han Yu to appease people's hearts. After Han Yu arrived, he summoned the soldiers and civilians and told them what was right and what was rebellion. After listening to the impassioned speech, Wang Ting was in awe of Han Yu.
