note:
Ji Kang said to 10-year-old son Ji Shao before he died in Dongshi: "With Uncle Dan Tao, you are not an orphan." After Ji Kang's death, Ji Shao and her son have been living in seclusion in Yang Shan. As expected, Dan Tao, who is in a high position, let bygones be bygones, and gave them a lot of help, so that the orphan and widowed mother lived a simple and peaceful life in Yang Shan. When Ji Shao came of age, Dan Tao stood up again to make sure that he was an official. In order to thank Dan Tao for taking care of him for many years, Ji Shao decided to be an official for the people after careful consideration, so he left his hiding place and came to Luoyang.
Ji Kang's "Dragon Zhang Fengzi, nature is in nature", and his son Ji Shao is of course like a phoenix nirvana. As soon as he came to Luoyang, he was like an elf descending to earth, and the fairy bathed in the Qinghe River, which caused a great sensation in the capital. He dances alone in the crowd like a crane, and the bright moon shines among the stars. He is so beautiful that he is not rustic at all. In Beijing's vulgar bling, he is like an uncut but flawless natural jade, which makes viewers intoxicated and prostrate.
Ji Shao not only inherited Ji Kang's appearance and sharp words, but more importantly, he also inherited Ji Kang's noble character of "wealth can't be lewd, poverty can't be moved, and powerful people can't bend". In 304 AD, Jin Huidi's motorcade was surrounded by the army of Sima Ying, the king of Chengdu. In the face of the bloody butcher's knife, where are all the gentlemen who are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality on weekdays? They betrayed loyalty and filial piety and fled for their lives; In the face of ferocious and cruel enemies, where is the old Confucian who is "indifferent" all day? They abandoned their manners and ran away. At this point, only Ji Shao and only Ji Shao got off the horse and boarded the imperial chariot, guarding the sword in front of Hui Di like Mount Tai. There were a large number of enemy troops at that time. At first glance, there is no end, such as the vast Wang Yang, but Ji Shao did not flinch. He knew that he was defending not only the retarded emperor behind him, but the most important spiritual core of Confucianism, and he was determined to defend Taoism to the death. I saw the enemy coming like a wave, and Ji Shao did everything he had learned all his life, just like a mountain by the sea, letting the enemy come and go again and again. Blood gradually dyed his white hands, blood slowly climbed up his ice sculpture-like face, the sun slowly set, and blood-stained Xia Hong began to emerge in the sky. At the end of the war, piles of enemy bodies piled up into hills at the foot of Ji Shao, and this high-spirited young man still stands on the land of China with his head held high, just like Mount Tai. Faced with the influx of tens of thousands of enemy troops and the sinking Confucian spirit like the sun, Ji Shao is still pale and powerless. He took out a mud flute from his clothes, then closed his eyes as blue as autumn water and played it. This voice is melodious, elegant, vulgar and noble, like a row of cranes flying in the sky, and like a dragon rushing to the blue sky. Yes, yes, Ji Shao defended the most essential moral belief of Confucianism with his loyalty; Really, really, Ji Shao used his life to play the once-in-a-lifetime "Guangling San", which made this music symbolizing the noblest quality of human beings reappear in the world. When the enemy heard this cheer, they stopped moving forward, because they knew that there was no goal in front of them, only a high mountain, a monument of mankind.
Some people may ask, Ji Kang died at the hand of Sima, and his son Ji Shao died for Sima. Isn't this a contradiction between father and son? But the fact is that Ji and his son are not simply loyal to one country and one surname, but defend the most basic spiritual core of Confucianism. Anyone who usurps the throne and conspires to challenge Confucianism will be resisted to death by them. In fact, they are all seeking benevolence and martyrdom.
12. Pei Kai was born with beauty. Even if he takes off his crown, his coarse clothes are just as beautiful. At that time, people called him "Jade Man". Everyone who has seen him said, "Meeting Pei Kai is like walking into a Jade Mountain, surrounded by all kinds of light.
note:
As mentioned above, Pei Kai was born beautiful, tall and straight as a pine in the wind, handsome as a cold plum and proud of snow, and was known as a "jade man" at that time. You know, in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, "Jade Man" was the highest praise for handsome men.
Pei Kai is different from Rebecca, who is full of empty talk but also famous for her beauty, and has practical political talents. If he had been born on a grand occasion, he would have remained immortal with his profound knowledge and hard work, just like Guan Zhong and Duke Zhou. But it happened that this jade man was born at the wrong time. At the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, it was a dark time when consorts and Sima Wang struggled with each other. In such an era, it is impossible to benefit the world and the people; And their own lives are in jeopardy, stormy, as long as a little careless, that peace, Xia Houxuan and other tragedies will fall on their heads. Pei Kai was cautious all his life, did not seek fame and fortune, and never took the initiative to stand on the side of any political group. However, man is not as good as heaven, and his children's marriage often drives him into the political whirlpool. At the beginning, Hui Jin, the retarded son of heaven, succeeded to the throne, and Yang Jun, the monarch, came to power, and the state affairs declined day by day. Pei Kai didn't want to go along with it, so he recommended himself as Prince Shao Shi, taught with peace of mind, and stopped interfering in state affairs. In 29 1 year, Jia Nanfeng, the queen of Jinhui Emperor, staged a coup and wiped out Yang Jun's party. Pei Zan, the son of Pei Jie, happened to be Yang Jun's son-in-law, so Pei Jie's family was even fined and asked the whole family to copy it. On the brink of disaster, the Jade Man at this time is still the same, calmly writing letters to relatives and friends to say goodbye, showing the demeanor of celebrities in Wei and Jin Dynasties. God also took care of this Baoyu this time, and many important officials in the DPRK jointly vouched for him, so that Pei Jie not only saved her life, but also entered Linhai Hou. The story is not over yet. Not long after, Sima Wei, the king of Chu, issued a letter to kill Sima Liang, the king of Runan, and Wei Guan, the prime minister. It happened that Pei Kai was related to these two people by marriage. Pei Kai's eldest son is the son-in-law of King Runan and his daughter is the daughter-in-law of Wei Guan. Obviously, this relationship is enough to give the red-eyed king of Chu a reason to exterminate Pei Festival. This time, however, Pei Kai learned the essence. Instead of pretending to be cool at home and waiting for death, he took his family to eight residences overnight and successfully escaped capture. Soon, Wang Wei of Chu was killed by his family and died. Pei Kai also jumped from a fugitive to a deputy prime minister, who was in charge of the daily operation of the court together with famous officials Zhang Hua and Wang Rong. In the next decade, although the family was dissolute and chaotic, North Korea was generally stable and had a resurgence atmosphere. Obviously, this is inseparable from Pei Kai and Zhang Hua's diligent working attitude and excellent coordination ability. Pei Kai, a jade man, finally got what he wanted in the last ten years of his life and lived in the official residence, creating a temporary peaceful development situation.
13. Liu Ling's height is only1.47m, and he is ugly, wobbly and untidy.
note:
The demeanor of Wei and Jin Dynasties and the aesthetic tendency of the whole Six Dynasties are not only making peace and feeling sorry for Xia Houxuan's shadow, but also ice sculptures and jade sculptures are like beautiful men descended from fairies. This is not only a godsend, but also undisguised, such as Ji Kang and Pei Kai, who are both good jade people. Like Cao Cao, who calls the shots and doesn't stick to one pattern, there is no one around, and Wang Meng, who scratches his head, is also considered as a representative figure in Wei and Jin Dynasties, and Liu Ling, who is cynical and bohemian in this story, is an indispensable and important figure in Wei and Jin Dynasties.
Liu Ling is less than 1.5 meters tall and ugly, but she is such a person. She is the third most famous figure among the "Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest" after Ji Kang and Ruan Ji. In the Southern Dynasties, she paid more attention to Shen Feng's appearance, and she rushed into Shi Shuo Xin Yu. Rong Zhi is designed for beautiful men. It can be seen that Liu Ling is so popular and has a large number of loyal supporters. Like other bamboo Lin Junxian, Liu Ling has a unique skill that is world-famous. But his stunt is not Ji Kang's piano, nor Ruan Ji's poems, nor the academic achievements of Xiang embroidery, but "drinking". China has had a lot of good drinkers since ancient times, but Liu Ling can still be regarded as the first alcoholic in China. Even Li Bai, the poet of "One Hundred Poems about Fighting for Wine", or Zhang Xu, a grass saint with three cups of paper, has a big gap compared with Liu Ling.
Liu Ling's drinking capacity has always shocked the world. In his early years, he liked to take a few jars of wine, sit in a stagecoach and wander around, and let people follow him with hoes. He gave the order: "I'm drunk and buried at once." I can see that he has a drunken posture. Later, his wife was worried about his health, so she poured all the wine and destroyed all the utensils, and severely warned him that he must give up drinking. In the face of his wife's lion-like roar, Liu Ling said shyly, "OK, my wife, but I'm too addicted to alcohol to quit. I must swear before the gods to succeed. Go and prepare some wine and meat for the priest. " The wife believed it after listening to it, and soon prepared the altar and sacrifice. I saw that Liu Ling's pious legs knelt down and prayed: "Born Liu Ling, in the name of wine, has a cup and a drink, and the five gods are awake, and the words of women are immortal." With that, he jumped on the altar, picked up the bottle and sent it to his mouth. Before long, he was drunk again. Presumably, Mrs. Liu at this time is just like us, just in distress situation. In fact, this is just one example of many drinking binges in Liu Ling. On one occasion, several colleagues visited him on business. At this time, Liu Ling happened to be in a good mood. When his colleagues saw it, they reminded him of his identity and social influence. But Liu Ling replied indifferently, "I live between heaven and earth, and my house is my clothes. How did you get into my crotch? " Everyone is speechless.
Liu Ling not only shocked the world by drinking, but also attached great importance to the theoretical construction of drinking behavior. His Ode to the Virtue of Wine is a masterpiece through the ages, enthusiastically praising the informal and unrestrained adult (the poetic embodiment of the seven sages of the bamboo forest). This ode to wine virtue is a theoretical banner that many drunkards can hold high at any time.
"Worry is far away from me" (Tao Yuanming's seventh drinking poem). Facing the dark world, celebrities with noble moral character and strong personality can only forget the oppression of reality through alcohol; "Put up with superficial fame and sing shallowly" (Liu Yong's "Crane to Heaven"). Since the reality is so dark, what is there to pursue for the illusory fame and fortune? It is better to be drunk and dream of death; "Drinking nourishes nature, and cursive writing enriches the soul" (Huai Su) There is nothing in the world. Only by drinking can we realize the true meaning of life and pursue the perfection of life; How can people like Sima Guang and Zhu, such famous drinkers since ancient times, understand their inner anguish? "Since ancient times, sages have been lonely, and only drinkers have left their names" (Li Bai's Into the Wine). Finally, let's sincerely have another drink for a good drinker like Liu Ling.
14. Wang Ji is Wei Jie's uncle. He is handsome and handsome, like a well-proportioned tree in the wind, but when he saw Wei Jie, he couldn't help but sigh: "It's really embarrassing to have the pearl on the side."
note:
Wang Ji, the word Wuzi, became famous as a teenager, and was able to write and be martial. On the school playground, he is good at bowing and riding. In his study, he is quick-witted and ingenious. In addition, others are tall and straight, revealing elegance in majesty and romance under majesty. Emperor Wu of Jin also appreciated his talent, so he betrothed his beloved princess Changshan to him. It stands to reason that such an all-rounder with good opportunities should have a bright future at the beginning of the founding of the Western Jin Dynasty. However, under the influence of the extravagant taxi style in the Western Jin Dynasty, Wang spent a lot of talent and good martial arts, and gradually degenerated. In the end, such a talented teenager left history with all kinds of extravagance and waste. There are only twelve articles in Shi Shuo Xin Yu. Waste articles, and Ji Wang actually monopolized the third place, only one less than the infamous Shi Chong, ranking second, showing its bad reputation and bad influence. Among them, his most famous extravagance and evil deeds are The Banquet of Emperor Wu. On one occasion, Emperor Wu of Jin came to his son-in-law's house, and Ji Wang hosted a banquet. However, all the utensils used were glazed jade, golden plates and jade bowls, and 100 many beautiful ladies-in-waiting in luxurious clothes waited on him. During the dinner, Emperor Wu suddenly felt that a roast suckling pig was particularly tender and delicious, which he had never eaten before, so he asked his son-in-law what to do. Wang remembered: "All the pigs in our family are fed by human milk, so the meat is particularly tender." After hearing this, Emperor Wu changed his face and stopped eating. He got up and left at once. When he left, he said sadly, "This kind of luxury can't even compare with Shi Chong and Wang Kai." Yes, compared with Shi Chong, where candles are used as raw materials, Wang Kai washes pots with sugar water. Ji Wang's human milk feeding pigs is really a step up, directly to the extreme abnormal degree; No wonder courtiers have always been encouraged to waste more money, and Sima Yan, who has more than 10 thousand concubines, can't stand it.
In this story, Wei Jie, who made Wang Ji feel ashamed, was the first beautiful man at the turn of the Jin Dynasty. I will tell readers in detail his charming and touching romantic story. Here, what I want to say is that although the figures in the Han, Wei and Six Dynasties competed for fame and gain, they dared to admit the advantages of others and face up to their own shortcomings in the fierce competition. For example, in this story, Ji Wang is a respected husband and uncle, but when he sees Wei Jie as exquisite as jade, he can still generously admit that the beauty of the other person is far better than himself. In fact, there are many examples of self-knowledge in the Han, Wei and Six Dynasties. For example, Lu Ji, the first scholar in the Western Jin Dynasty, spent several years compiling Sandu Fu, but after seeing Zuosi's Sandu Fu, he quit and admitted that his Sandu Fu was far less than Zuosi's. You know, at that time, Kyoto Fu, such as Sandu Fu, has always been regarded by literati as a great cause of founding the country and an immortal event, which is the best display of their literary talent. What's more, Lu Ji is famous far and wide, ranking first in the world, but he can still seek truth from facts and feel ashamed of others' achievements. The same example is that Xiahou Zhan voluntarily gave up Wei Zhi. He wrote for many years, and frankly, Chen Shou's version is better. Moreover, at that time, scholars competed with each other and won only by learning, not by fame and status. For example, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, a brilliant and ambitious overlord, is also gentle and good at literature, and his works are elegant and readable. Among them, Poem of Autumn Wind is an eternal masterpiece, which is equally gentle and touching to read now, but Liu Che does not think that his literary talent is better than that of Sima Xiangru, a great writer, but he still recognizes his status as a great writer. This is much higher than the "perfect old man" who claims to be the first in literary talent but has a lot of articles but no interest. In fact, it was this shameful attitude that made great progress in politics, economy, culture and other aspects of social life during the Han, Wei and Six Dynasties. It is this self-righteous and arrogant mentality that made all aspects of national life in the Ming and Qing Dynasties stagnate. Therefore, in today's era of all-round socialization and globalization, as long as others are good and strong, no matter where they learned it or which country they made it, we should admit it generously and learn with an open mind. Because only in this way can we, as individuals and even our nation, make continuous progress and create new glories. Let's face the shame with a positive attitude!
15. Someone visited Yan and met Wang Dun and Wang Dao. In another room, they saw Wang Xu and Wang Cheng again. After coming out, he said to people, "Today, the Taiwei family and their party saw all kinds of beautiful things." (The origin of the idiom dazzling)
note:
During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, handsome men came forth in large numbers, and the only handsome families that can be described with dazzling array of things were Wolf Evil King, Chen and Xianbei Murong. Because there are records of Wang's children and Chen's Xie's children, and I have described them in detail, I will focus on introducing the mysterious handsome family Xianbei Murong from the northern grassland that is not recorded in Shi Shuo Xin Yu.
The Murong family in Xianbei is famous for its rich handsome men in history. In terms of masculinity, it confronts the traditional aristocrats of Langxie and Xie of Chenjun. There are roughly two reasons. First, the Murong people in Xianbei are all fair-skinned and slender because they are mixed with Caucasian descent, which coincides with the aesthetic taste of being white and thin at that time, so the beauty of Murong people is more easily recognized. It is said that in the Western Jin Dynasty, all the princes and nobles in Beijing regarded the beautiful and white Murong ladies-in-waiting as a symbol of wealth. Secondly, I don't know whether it is influenced by the fashion of "judging people by their appearances" after the Han literati entered the Central Plains, or the customs of Murong tribe on the grassland. In the inheritance system, Murong of Xianbei is not tall and Shang Xian, but he looks better than anyone else. Yes, it's hard to say whether morality is good or bad, and the level of talent is ugly. It's like buying a lottery ticket to bet on luck, but the beauty and ugliness of a person's appearance are real and easy to distinguish (Xianbei people have always had many tricks on inheritance, and another branch of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Tuoba, rebelled against the common sense of "mother-child blind date" and insisted on the system of "killing mother". Once the prince is established as the crown prince, although it is inhuman, it can effectively prevent the harem from being chaotic. Under this inheritance system, the Xianbei Murong family can certainly ensure that the young generation of chivalrous men will not die out.
Ok, now let's talk about the stunning man of Murong in Xianbei. When it comes to the handsome man of the Murong family in Xianbei, the first thing that comes to mind is Mu Rongchong, a knight beautiful boy with fine print "Phoenix". In 370 AD, Yan Qian was destroyed by the former Qin Dynasty. Twelve-year-old Mu Rongchong and qinghe princess, two years older than him, were taken into the harem as prisoners by Fu Jian, a former Qin emperor with a broken back. Xianbei Murong was born beautiful, and qinghe princess was as ice as snow. Two beautiful eyes are as silent as those in the Dongting, and a pink mouth is as enchanting as cold plum and proud snow. Mu Rongchong's face is like an ice sculpture. His skin color is paler and more melancholy than that of Tianshan Snow Lotus, and his long eyelashes are dotted with calm and lonely eyes like a lake. Fu Jian got such a pair of stooges, which naturally spoiled her. She often asks her brother and sister to sleep together, and sometimes the three of them have sex day and night for days. Later, because of the bad influence, under the advice of ministers, Fu Jian could not put Mu Rongchong outside as Pingyang Prefecture. In 383 AD, Fu Jian's 870,000 troops were defeated at the foot of the water, his empire fell apart, and military commanders from all over the country defected to stand on their own feet. 25-year-old Mu Rongchong finally got the chance of revenge and revival. The beautiful boy rode his horse and led a group of Xianbei adherents to kill Chang 'an, the former capital of Qin Dynasty. In order to show his ambition of rejuvenating the country, he killed American teenagers, white helmets and white armor, white guns and white horses, all dressed in white, at the gates of Chang 'an. In Chang 'an, a city that once humiliated him, the anger buried under the melancholy appearance of beautiful teenagers broke out completely. This jade-faced Luo Cha took the lead and killed the former Qin army with the courage inspired by hatred; In this regard, a generation of overlord Fu Jian only fled hastily. In 385 A.D., Mu Rongchong succeeded to the throne in Epang Palace and proclaimed himself emperor, officially completing the great cause of Fu Yan (known as Xiyan in history).
Among Murong clan in Xianbei, Mu Rongchui, the founding emperor of Houyan, was promoted by several talents and good looks. Mu Rongchui, whose name is Ming Dow, is 1.88 meters tall, with his hands over his knees and a natural ape arm; Standing like a pine in the wind, lying like a jade mountain. Unlike other impulsive knights and beauties in their family, Mu Rongchui, who was ill-fated, was very patient. After leading the troops to surrender to the former Qin Dynasty, Fu Jian, who occupied his wife, was always respectful and obedient, thus winning the trust of Fu Jian and commanding a large number of troops. After the Battle of Feishui, he saw that Fu Jian had lost all hope, so he tore off his disguise, rebelled openly, occupied the original land of Yan Qian, and declared the success of restoring the country for the emperor (known as Hou Yan in history). Of course, the glory of Mu Rongchui is relative to those embroidered pillows in their home. To say that it is truly superior to strategy, he has no obvious advantage. Ma is far from Wang Meng, the former minister of Qin Dynasty. Wang Meng's golden knife against Mu Rongchui was the first counter-measure in China since ancient times, because no one would have expected that a famous scholar would not sacrifice his reputation for the first time, so the sinister and vicious index 10, and Mu Rongchui almost died (the reason why he didn't die was not Mu Rongchui's cleverness or Wang Meng's mistake, but Fu Jian's heart was too soft).
Former members of the royal family who surrendered after national subjugation became servants of others, and they could be as happy as Liu Chan and Chen Houzhu. You can also use poetry to express your deep nostalgia for your motherland, just like Li Houzhu and Song Huizong, but you must never plant deep seeds of rejuvenation in your heart, because it will almost certainly bring uprooted consequences to your family. After the demise of the former Yan, the kind people in Fu Jian took good care of the Murong family, with high officials, generous salaries and beautiful homes, and gave them real power, so that they could be fully armed. However, after Fu Jian was defeated by water, the Murong children not only did not appreciate it, but took the lead in rebellion. On the land of the former Qin Dynasty, two regimes, Houyan and Xiyan, were established successively. However, on the surface, they have completed the great cause of regaining the swallows. But their family also left a bad impression on the world, that is, bite the hand that feeds you, and the heart of rejuvenating the country will not die; And since ancient times, there has been no fairy kingdom. When their state of Yan was destroyed again, later conquerors dared to repeat the mistakes of Fu Jian and naturally ordered the Murong family in Xianbei to be destroyed. Around 409 AD, the famous northern handsome Xianbei Murong family was almost eradicated.
During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, in addition to Murong's handsome knights in Xianbei, Cui Shi in Qinghe, Gao Changgong in Lan Ling, a warrior in Guan Long, and Duguxin in Guan Long's dugu were all famous for their beauty. However, whether it is Cui Shi in Qinghe, which represents the Shandong gentry, or various famous families in Guanlong area, it is difficult to compare with Mr. Murong in terms of the overall quantity and quality of handsome men.
