Legend has it that Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun, one is a gifted scholar who is regarded as a distinguished guest by the county magistrate of Lin Qiong, and the other is a beautiful woman who is widowed at home. Their story began with a visit to Zhuo's house, where they played the famous song "Feng Qiu Feng": "Feng Feng returned to his hometown and traveled all over the world to seek his phoenix. There is a beautiful woman in this hall, and the people in the room are poisoning my intestines. Why do you want to hand her over as a mandarin duck? " This kind of words, which are equally straightforward, bold and warm today, naturally made Zhuo Wenjun, who was listening behind the scenes, feel sincerely excited. After meeting Sima Xiangru, they fell in love at first sight and agreed to elope.
That night, Zhuo Wenjun packed up and walked out of the house, and met Sima Xiangru who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, thus completing the most brilliant event in their lives. Zhuo Wenjun is a strange girl. And Sima Xiangru returned to Chengdu, facing the family's predicament (which is a great test for love), he generously returned to his hometown in Lin Qiong to open a hotel and sell wine himself, and finally let his proud father admit their love. Although later Taoists called their elopement "lewd running", it did not prevent them from becoming role models for many couples in the future. After that, there is another thing worth remembering: Sima Xiangru once fell in love with a talented woman, and Zhuo Wenjun wrote "Poems of Whitehead" with the caption "Wen Jun has two opinions, so he refused. I hope to be United with one heart and one mind and never give up. " Finally, let the other person change their mind.
3 Author introduction
Sima Xiangru (about 179- 1 17) was a great poet in the Western Han Dynasty. Han nationality, a native of Pengzhou, Sichuan (now Peng 'an, Nanchong), is called Chengdu. Everyone in the western han dynasty. His masterpiece is Zi Xu Fu. His works are rich in rhetoric and grand in structure, and he is a representative writer of Han Fu, which was later called sanctification. The story of his elopement with Zhuo Wenjun is also widely circulated. Lu Xun's Outline of the History of China Literature also commented on them in a special section, pointing out: "When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was studying, he gave Murray Sima Xiangru and Sima Qian of Wen Ruo". Sima Xiangru is good at guqin, and the piano used is called "Qingqi", which was given by Liang Wang when Emperor Jing of the Western Han Dynasty. It is a famous guqin, and its name has been passed down to this day, even becoming another name of guqin in literary works.
The story of his elopement with Zhuo Wenjun is well known. According to Records of Historical Records and Biography of Sima Xiangru, Liang, a foreigner and official, returned to Shu and was invited by his good friend (now Qionglai, Sichuan) to visit Wang Ji. Zhuo Wenjun, the daughter of Zhuo Wangsun, the richest man in the local area, is both talented and beautiful, proficient in music and widowed. On one occasion, Zhuo Wangsun held a grand banquet for hundreds of people, and both Ji Wang and Xiangru were invited as distinguished guests. During the dinner, Ji Wang introduced Xiang Ru as a master of piano. They said, "I heard that you play Green Seven very well. Please play a song to satisfy my ears. " Items such as playing two piano pieces with "Qing Qi" in public, intended to stir up Wen Jun, "Wen Jun stole from the door, and his heart was happy and good, and he was afraid that he would not be able to do so. After all, Xiang Ru made people pay attention to the waiters in Wen Jun again. The death of Wen Jun, the night is like running, such as running to Chengdu. " However, when Zhuo Wenjun arrived at his home in Sima Xiangru, he realized that his family was poor and his life was getting worse. Sima Xiangru had to sell the house and go back to Lin Qiongkai Hotel with Zhuo Wenjun. Finally, Zhuo Wangsun's relief gradually improved. These two poems are said to be the lyrics of "Huang" and sing like a piano. Because this poem was not included in Historical Records, it was not included until Xu Ling of the Chen Dynasty compiled Yutai New Poetry, and added a preface to explain that Lei Ju of Literature and Art in the Tang Dynasty and Yuefu Poetry in the Song Dynasty were also included, so it is suspected that it was written by a pianist in the Han Dynasty under the guise of Sima Xiangru. There are indeed many fakes in Qin Ge and other works, but it is difficult to find exact evidence to prove them. In this regard, we have to doubt.
The first song expressed Sima Xiangru's infinite admiration and ardent pursuit for Zhuo Wenjun. Comparing Xiang Ru to a phoenix, he is even more an emperor (phoenix) than Wen Jun, which has multiple meanings in the specific background of this poem.
Dou Taihou advocated the theory of "Huang Lao", deposed Dou Ying and Tian Yong who supported Confucianism, and appointed several foolish people as prime ministers, censors and practitioners. Emperor Wu didn't want to discuss with them. Staying in the palace is really boring. He often changes into casual clothes and goes out to play and hunt. Sometimes he runs far and doesn't come back for four or five days. Later, he felt that running too far was not only dangerous, but also really difficult, so he ordered Dr. Guanglu Wu Qiushou Wang Tuo to build a big garden in the forest. The young Emperor Wu spent most of his time in Shanglinyuan. ? Yawen of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty liked Ci Fu, and famous literati such as Dongfang Shuo and Qiu Shouwang often accompanied him and were very happy. ? One day, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty read Sima Xiangru's Zi Xufu, and was attracted by the beautiful words and majestic momentum. He couldn't help applauding. After reading Zi Xu's Fu in one breath, I thought that the author was a former dynasty, and repeatedly sighed and said, "The person who wrote this Fu is really a genius, but it's a pity that I didn't live in the same era as this person!" ? At this time, Yang Deyi, the dog supervisor who waited on Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, said with a flattering smile, "Your Majesty, the person who wrote this poem knows that he is a fellow countryman and now lives in Chengdu." ? Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was surprised and delighted, and asked, "Is what you said true?" ? Yang Deyi replied: "Yes, Sima Xiangru once told me that what he wrote was false." ? "That's great! No one has ever told me about such a talented person. " Emperor Wu said with a little regret, so he immediately sent someone to call Sima Xiangru to Beijing. ? Sima Xiangru, the word evergreen, was born in Chengdu, Shu County. He is good at reading, playing the piano and being free and easy. His articles are beautiful, especially good at writing fu. He and Wang Ji are good friends. Wang Ji once said to him, "You are studying abroad. If your career is not smooth and life is difficult, come to Lin Qiong to find me. " One day, Sima Xiangru really came to Ji Wang. ? Two people came to the living room hand in hand, Sima Xiangru and Wang Ji talked about his whereabouts in recent years. When Wang Ji knew Xiang Ru was not married, he told him that Lin Qiong's richest man, Zhuo Wangsun, had a daughter named Zhuo Wenjun, who was extremely clever and beautiful, and now she was widowed. We are made for each other. Sima Xiangru listened and shook his head embarrassedly. Wang Ji doesn't think so. He thinks this is a human effort. ? Knowing that Sima Xiangru was a famous scholar, Zhuo Wangsun treated him to a light meal, and sent more than 100 invitations by the way, inviting many county officials and prestigious people. ? At the beginning of the banquet, Zhuo Wangsun led all the guests to propose a toast to Sima Xiangru and said many flattering words. While everyone was having a good time, Wang Ji introduced to everyone: "Mr. Xiang Ru is the first celebrity today, not only because of his articles.
He writes well and plays well. There is good wine to entertain guests today. Why don't you ask Mr. Xiangru to play a song? "They listened to, cheered in chorus. ? Sima Xiangru declined and began to play, playing a short song first. Later, she overheard a vague white woman listening to the piano behind the bamboo curtain. Knowing that it was Zhuo Wenjun, she displayed her superb piano skills and played a song "Looking for Phoenix". Through the piano, she expressed her courtship to Zhuo Wenjun. It turned out that Zhuo Wenjun had long wanted to meet this great genius when he heard of Sima Xiangru's visit. She loves music and hides behind the curtain when she hears the piano. Zhuo Wenjun deeply understood the piano theory and realized the significance of piano sound. And the guests at the party, of course, don't recognize why, just compliment Sima Xiangru blindly and clap your hands blindly. ? After Sima Xiangru came back, he bribed Zhuo Wenjun's servant and wrote a courtship letter to Zhuo Wenjun through the servant. Zhuo Wenjun was very excited when she received the love letter, but she knew that her father would not agree to this marriage. Then one night, he sneaked out and defected to Sima Xiangru. They drove back to Sima Xiangru's hometown of Chengdu overnight. ? Zhuo Wenjun and Sima Xiangru came to Chengdu. At first, they were content with living in poverty, but after a long time, they couldn't stand it any longer, so they suggested going to Lin Qiong. Sima Xiangru also have no other way, two people together to Lin Qiong. ? Zhuo Wangsun was very angry with Zhuo Wenjun's elopement and refused to help them. In order to make a fool of themselves, they opened a couple's hotel, where Wen Jun sold wine as a waiter, as if deliberately washing dishes, chopsticks, cups and plates in public and serving wine in a kettle, like a bartender. ? Sure enough, Zhuo Wangsun thought that Zhuo Wenjun and Sima Xiangru were too embarrassed to go out. Later, under the persuasion of relatives and friends and the county magistrate, Sima Xiangru got a sum of money. Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun returned to Chengdu and began a rich life. ? Let's talk about Sima Xiangru being called into the court. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty saw him and asked him, "Did you write Zixu Fu?"? " ? Sima Xiangru replied with great conceit, "Yes, Your Majesty, I wrote Zixu Fu. However, that's about the prince. It's no big deal. If you allow me to hunt with your majesty, I can write a hunting gift for your majesty. " ? Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was very happy. Sima Xiangru received luxurious accommodation and generous treatment. The next day, I took Sima Xiangru and others to hunt in the forest. A few days later, Sima Xiangru wrote a poem "On the Forest" and dedicated it to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty read Lin Fu and was very satisfied. He was so happy that he sealed a Langguan in Sima Xiangru. ? Later, as the special envoy of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, Sima Xiangru appealed to Yelang to submit to the Han Dynasty, which was appreciated by Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty. When the leaders of Qionglai, Ai, Ran and Zhen saw Yelang's submission to the Han Dynasty, they all expressed their willingness to submit to the Han Dynasty. So Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty appointed Sima Xiangru as a corps commander and held a sacred festival for the emperor to appease the tribes in these areas. Sima Xiangru successfully completed his mission, and Emperor Wu was very satisfied and rewarded him. Soon, someone wrote to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, saying that Sima Xiangru accepted a lot of money and bribes when he was on mission. When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty believed it, he dismissed Sima Xiangru. ? Sima Xiangru's family is rich and happy, so he moved to Maoling and lived a leisurely and comfortable life with Zhuo Wenjun. ?
