"Have China people lost confidence?" He wrote: "Since ancient times, there have been people who have worked hard, people who have worked hard, people who have pleaded for their lives, and people who have sacrificed their lives for the law ... Although it is the so-called" official history "of the imperial genealogy, it often cannot hide their glory. This is the backbone of China. " Here, "pleading for the people" refers to the consciousness that people with considerable status state their difficulties on behalf of the people and make demands on those in power. There are many people who plead for the people in China since ancient times, which have been passed down from generation to generation, but the first person I think of is Fan Zhongyan.
Fan Zhongyan had a good family and his father was a small official. However, after his father died, the family's livelihood became difficult. Therefore, at present, Xie had to keep a secret from Fan Zhongyan, who is two years older than him, and remarried to Zhu, the governor of Zilu, who was born in a mountain village. Fan Zhongyan also changed his surname and named Zhu Shuo. Later, after years of hard study, Fan Zhongyan entered the official career and entered the political arena as the head coach of the Guangde Army. Fan Zhongyan's local political discipline focuses on water control, while the central political discipline focuses on reform, involving politics, economy, military affairs, education, imperial examinations and other aspects and fields.
Fan Zhongyan was a reformer, politician, strategist and litterateur in the Northern Song Dynasty, with great achievements. The phrase "Worry about the world first, and enjoy the world later" has inspired generations of scholars and has a far-reaching impact on future generations. In fact, Fan Zhongyan was also highly appraised in the Great Song Dynasty. After his death, giving him a "literary" posthumous title is enough to show his affirmation of his life. Nine people won the "Zheng Wen" posthumous title in the Northern Song Dynasty, among which Fan Zhongyan and Sima Guang had great influence on later generations, and Fan Zhongyan was relatively superior. After all, he is a reformist, and it is relatively difficult to make achievements.
