Personal introduction of Xu Zhenqing, one of the four great scholars in ancient China.

Xu Zhenqing, whose real name is Changgu, whose real name is Guo Chang, is a native of Wuxian County, Han nationality, whose ancestral home is Meili Town, Changshu City, and later moved to Wuxian County. The writer of Ming Dynasty, known as "the poet of Wuzhong", is one of the four great talents in Wuzhong. His quatrain, "The article stays in the river and leaves every family, flowers and trees grow in Yangzhou and smoke in the moon", is famous all over the world.

Xu Zhenqing is kind-hearted, but he is not very open-minded in art and science. He is known as "every book in the family can do anything". In his early years, he studied literature in Wu Kuan and calligraphy in Mars Town. In literary genre, He Jingming, Kang Hai, Wang, Bian Gong, etc. became the "first seven scholars", emphasizing the study of Qin and Han dynasties, praising Han and Wei in ancient poems and strict legal system. Wang Shizhen's "Yiyuan Garden" quoted the quatrain "Articles stay at home in the river, Yangzhou flowers and trees smoke on the moon". Calligraphy is also necessary. Wang Shizhen said, "I am a master of fine arts. I am a young herbalist, Huai Su. He imitates Su, Huang, and Mi, and the kings are years old. I will take the gains and losses of the Preface to the Book of Jun and grow old, so that I will become my own family. " Xu Zhenqing is the author of Di Gong Collection, Di Gong Collection, Tan Yi Lu and other literary criticism works. 16 years old wrote "New Money Collection". However, in the early years, I tried many times. After watching Li Sao, I felt it was a collection of sighs. In the fourteenth year of Hongzhi, Jiang Xingji; In the 16th year of Hongzhi in Ming Dynasty, Wen Zhiming compiled the New Records of Taihu Lake. In the eighteenth year of Hongzhi, I heard that Tatar invaded and the officers and men were defeated by the poor anti-Japanese. He wrote a long poem A Passage to Yutai. In the same year, because of his ugly appearance, Zhong Jinshi was not allowed to enter the Hanlin Academy and was appointed as the deputy curator of Zuosi Temple in Dali. In the fifth year of Zheng De in Ming Dynasty, he was demoted to Dr. imperial academy. Xu Zhenqing believed in Taoism and studied health preservation in his later years. He died in Beijing in the sixth year of the Ming Dynasty at the age of 33. He is the oldest and shortest of the four gifted scholars. Xu Zhenqing's works include Di Gong Ji, Yi Yesheng Wen, etc. Tang Yin, Zhu Yunming and Wen Zhiming are famous for their calligraphy and painting, while Xu Zhenqing is the only one who is famous for his poetry. It occupies a special position in Xu Zhenqing's poetry circle and is known as a "literary hero" because of its numerous poems. His early poems were close to the styles of Bai Juyi and Liu Yuxi, and were later influenced by He Jingming and Bian Gong. He advocated that "literature must be in the Qin and Han Dynasties, and poetry must flourish in the Tang Dynasty", and devoted himself to the literary revival movement and became one of the "first seven schools". Qin Yi Lu only discusses the Han and Wei Dynasties. It was abolished after the Six Dynasties, and the theory of restoring ancient ways was expounded. His poems are elegant in style and fluent between Han and Tang dynasties. Although deliberately retro, Wuzhong still has a romantic feeling. In Qing Dynasty, Shen Deqian compiled a collection of poems in Ming Dynasty, of which only Xu Zhenqing and Wen Zhiming recorded two poems, while Xu Zhenqing actually compiled as many as 23 poems. He is one of the first seven sons, and his reputation is second only to that of Li Hehe. He compared Xu's poems with those of Li and He, saying that "Li Qixiong, He and Xu have deep feelings", which clearly pointed out the basic feature of poetry: "deep feelings". Although he is in tune with Li Mengyang, his habits in the Central Plains are not deep, and the wind still exists on the left side of the Yangtze River. The style of Wuzhong School still exists today, which has its own characteristics compared with other poems of the first seven poets. He summed up his poetic style with the word "refined police". He is good at seven-character quatrains, excellent quatrains, elegant words and meaningful feelings. There are many incisive opinions in Xu Zhenqing's poems, which are one of the few masterpieces in the history of poetry in Ming Dynasty and even in the history of ancient poetry.
