Li He is Shi Gui, so what is William Wang?

William Wang, a child next door when he was a child, grew up to be a bold frontier poet.

William Wang, Yu Zi, Jinyang (now Taiyuan, Shanxi) was a famous frontier poet in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

William Wang was born in a noble family in Taiyuan, a typical rich boy. When I was young, I was a hero, arrogant and uninhibited, and I liked drinking and hunting. There are many famous horses in the stable at home, just as there are many luxury cars in rich families now. There are also some music prostitutes at home, which are specially used for singing and dancing entertainment and will be very enjoyable.

Talk at ordinary times, compare yourself with the prince, and don't take everyone seriously. Often gather some heroes, shoot eagles, beat drums for fun, and have fun. But he was admitted to the Jinshi at the age of 20, and later he was admitted to the outspoken super-popularity department. Both were imperial examinations at that time, but Jinshi had a greater influence.

William Wang was a candidate (replacement) officer in the Jinshi examination. Once privately ranked the world's literati, and a * * * was divided into nine grades. Put yourself in the first place, and Zhang Shuo, Li Yong, others are excluded by him. It's good to talk about such a thing in private, but William Wang secretly posted the ranking list on the East Street of the official department early the next morning. It attracted thousands of people to watch, and everyone was miserable and gnashing their teeth. Under the pressure of public opinion, the imperial court secretly investigated and found that it was Wang, and prepared to invite the emperor to be punished by criminal law. Finally, with the help of the rich gentry, he was exempted from punishment. Naturally, he can no longer hold an official position, so he can only pack up and go back to his hometown.

At home, Zhang is the long guest, treats him very well, values him very much, and often attends family banquets. I often sing at banquets. Please ask Zhang to dance to the beat of the music and be in high spirits. After Zhang left office, Zhang said that he served as the secretariat of Bingzhou and was more polite to him. Zhang said that when he entered the auxiliary government, the official went to the left prime minister and held power, so it was called orthography. Orthography is an official position under the Secretariat Department, which is responsible for correcting ancient books and articles, and its position is slightly lower than that of proofreader. Zhang said that as an official of the imperial court, it is natural to accompany him when he inspects the frontier defense and sympathizes with the soldiers. At a banquet, William Wang wrote his most famous frontier poem Two Poems of Liangzhou:

one

Wine luminous glass, want to drink pipa, hurry up immediately.

Drunk lying on the battlefield, you don't laugh, there have been several wars in ancient times.

Secondly,

In the middle of Qin dynasty, flowers and birds had stopped, and the sandstorm outside the Great Wall was still cold.

Listening to Hu family folding willows at night reminds people of Chang 'an.

The first poem rendered the grand and luxurious banquet and the scene of the soldiers drinking heartily before the war, showing the broad-minded and unrestrained thoughts and feelings of the soldiers who put life and death at risk; The second poem captures the characteristics of the frontier fortress scenery and expresses the homesickness of the soldiers at the border crossing at night. These two poems have broad artistic conception, gorgeous language, lively rhythm and romantic atmosphere.

After Zhang was dismissed, he was also expelled from the court and relegated to (now southwest of Ye County, Henan Province). Don't drive is actually the long history above, and it is the assistant officer of the secretariat. Although he was demoted, William Wang's nature did not change. He still went hunting in the mountains and held a grand banquet. So, he was demoted again, exiled to Lingnan, and died on the way.

William Wang is good at writing poems. Although there are not many poems left, most of them are magnificent poems.

At that time, famous Confucian classics such as Zuyong and Hua Du had contacts with William Wang. Hua Du's mother, Cui Shi, said to Hua Du, "I heard that Meng Mu has moved three times. Now I want to find a place to live so that you and William Wang can become neighbors." William Wang's brilliant reputation was well known in his early years. In the eyes of his parents at that time, he is now a neighbor's child.
