The reclusive life of Luo Zhuang Academy and its literary influence;
Hong Xian lived in seclusion to give lectures in Shiliandong. Later, two officials who were dismissed with him were reinstated and wrote to urge him to come back. Contemporary Zaifu Yan Song, who has the friendship of fellow villagers, is also interested in his comeback. As long as Hong Xian is willing, he can still go back to Beijing to serve. He was ambivalent, hesitant and did not act. Outside Shilian Cave, Hong Xiandong practiced Sanjiu, squatting in summer, riding a horse, bending a bow, examining maps, observing history, astronomy, geography, laws and regulations, skills, water conservancy and war, and explored them one by one. It can be seen that "a scholar with words and brains will be omnipotent", which shows that Hong Xian's feelings of joining the WTO are still there.
"The bench will be cold for ten years, and the article will not be empty." In the cave, Hong Xian finished many important works. Among them, Guang Yu Tu, the two volumes carefully drawn, is the earliest provincial atlas in China's history, and it also invented the "plan (scale)", which has a position in the international geography circle. He advocates "opening one's mouth to look at one's throat" to the text, showing the pragmatic style of psychological figures. His poems not only got rid of the imitative school, but also lacked the Taoist spirit of the Tang and Song Dynasties.
His cursive calligraphy is elegant, and he has a gift for posting. Mo Bao auctioned it online, and it was very expensive. Hong Xian also built the Shi Lian Academy next to Shilian Cave to preach and teach. Today, Shi Lian Academy no longer exists, and the Hong Kong Buddhist Association donated money here to build the "Shi Lian Primary School" to pay tribute to the ancient style.
