Song was born in 656, and he had no prominent family background. His father Song Ling Wen set out from his hometown, determined to study and make friends. Li Shuo's exploration of etymology is multifaceted. He is not only "rich in words, skillful in writing, magnificent and unique, and is known as the three best in the world". When he was in Tang Gaozong, he was the master of Zuo Xiaolangwei and the master of Dongtai in charge of old books, and his reputation was not bad. Under the influence of his father, Song and his younger brother Song Zhixun were diligent and studious since childhood, and each had a unique father. Song Zhiyong was brilliant, Song Xun was good at Cao Li, and Song was a professional writer, which became a much-told story at that time. In the second year of Shang Yuan (675), the tall and handsome Song Jinshi boarded the "Longmen" and embarked on the right track of his official career.
Song Wenzhi's spring breeze is the day when Wu Zetian actually mastered state affairs. Wuhou accepted "Zhenguan" and made great efforts to select talents, not sticking to one pattern. Song and Yang Jiong were called into the Museum of Internal Literature in the name of talents, and were soon enfeoffed to join the army in Luozhou (now the northeast of Luoyang, Henan). In the second year of Yonglong (68 1), he joined Yang Jiong as a bachelor of Chongwenmen. In the autumn of the first year (69O), Emperor Wuhou proclaimed himself, changed the title of Zhou, and called Song and Yang Jiong into the cabinet of Luoyang West. During the period of 15, Song soon became a bachelor of five products from the internal education of Jiupin Zhengtang, which was highly praised by people at that time. In the Tang dynasty, the status of learning the soil was especially favored by the advisers and attendants of the gifted emperor. Song, who came from a humble background, was grateful and proud of it, and regarded it as a shortcut and guarantee to get ahead. He said in the preface to "Visiting Princess Taiping from Jiulongtan to Seek the Banquet of King Anping": "I am less pregnant with Shang Wei, and I have been working in Lingqiu for a long time. I have practiced the paradise of the past and can't stay long; What can I do to climb the king's laurel tree? " This is a typical expression of his mentality. Wu Hou's elegant movement, Song cleverly thought of culture for luck. On a trip to Longmen, Luoyang, the marquis of Wu ordered the minister to write poems. Zuo's poems were written first, and the marquis of Wu gave him a robe. He also presented the poem "Longmen Yingzhi" in the Song Dynasty, saying that "both arts and sciences are beautiful, and the left and right are called good". Wuhou took the Oriental Qiujin robe and handed it to him. This capture not only embodies Wuhou's advocacy of Song De's poetic style, but also shows the creative direction of Song at this time, which has a great impact on his reputation and status. During the Wu and Zhou Dynasties, Song not only traveled to Henan from the post-Wu Dynasty, but also flattered the near-lucky concubines, consorts and friends of the Hou Dynasty, feeling that "the ambition is only to achieve, but to forget." This pursuit and life made him gradually indulge and degenerate, and consciously or unconsciously fell into the political whirlpool of power struggle and interest struggle within the ruling group.
In the later years of Wuhou, Song was successively transferred to the positions of Shang Shu, Cheng and Zuo. After Wu Meichen, he and his brother "love their talents with elegance" and invited him and his friends Du, Yan, Shen Quanqi, Wang Wujing, Yin Yuankai, Fu Jiamo and Liu to preview. Song, Yan and many other branded Zhang Fuwen entered the collection and fell in love at first sight. Shucheng, who lived in Chang 'an for two years (703), moved to Li Si. In the first month of the first year of Shenlong (705), the Prime Minister Zhang Jianzhi and the King of Dianshan forced Wu to retreat, killing them, and friends such as Ying, Song and Du were all relegated. Song Wenzhi relegated Longzhou (now Luoding County, Guangdong Province) to join the army. Everything is difficult, and he longs for the glory of the past. The following spring, he secretly fled back to Luoyang. He found that his friend Zhang Hewang and other prime ministers, Wu Sansi (at the time of Zhang Jian) made people snitch, and he was appointed as the main book of Hung Hom. "This was deeply laughed at by just people." In July of the first year of Jinglong (707), the prince killed Wu Sansi and his son and died. Song praised the achievements of Wu and his son in the above table. Please build a monument in SHEN WOO, Tang Zhongzong, and find out the admirers. The following year, Yuan Wailang was transferred, and Du, Wu Pingyi, Shen (Almighty) and Yan were the first choice. "This is a famous example." At that time, the cronies of the imperial court fought for power and position. Because he was attached to Princess Anle, Princess Taiping was jealous of him and suggested Zhongzong. In the third year (7O9), Yu Jinglong moved him to Yuezhou (now Shaoxing, Zhejiang).
During the years, Song was deeply touched by the political turmoil and personal humiliation, and he came to a fresh and beautiful water town from a decadent court, which also purified his soul and sublimated his realm. After sincerely praising Dayu's eternal virtues of water control, disaster relief and saving people, he wrote in Yuezhou: "The king is the heart first, and pleasure is the virtue." After entering politics, just avoid it. Enlighten by watching the mirror water and help bamboo arrows to be straight; Pay tribute to God's rest and look forward to man's rest. "Reflects the ideological and emotional changes. As a result, he climbed mountains in Yuezhou and visited people's livelihood. His poetry creation was "quite independent" and began to turn into a healthy and fresh track. "Everyone is spreading satire in the capital. However, just as Song began to embark on the road of "rebirth", another palace coup drove him to the wall. In June of the first year of Jing Yun (7 10), Li Longji, king of Linhai County, and Princess Taiping killed Wei Ruyun and Princess Anle, established Tang Ruizong, and sent Song and Wu Sansi to Qinzhou (now the northeast of Qinzhou, Guangxi), then pardoned and changed to Guangxi. In August of the first year of congenital (7 12), after Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty ascended the throne, Song was granted death in the immigration office, ending his last life journey.
Song is a famous contemporary poet, but he is not praised politically and his behavior is quite absurd. Due to the limitations of court poets, he was subject to ghostwriting and his ambition was low. Many of his poems praise merit, whitewash peace, be flashy and vague. But with the turmoil of life, contact with society and experience of life, he also created some good works, which are refreshing. Yang Jiong wrote "Sacrifice to Yang Yingchuan" after his death, which adopted four or four standards, using phonetic characters and fancy sentences. The content is concise, sad and sincere, which makes people cry. Compared with his ghostwriting "Sacrificing Liang for Zongshangshu" and "Sacrificing Lu for Zongshangshu Brothers", the feelings of the literati at that time were completely different.
As a poet, Song Wenzhi was famous when he was young. "He was especially good at five-character poems, but he was second to none at that time." Judging from the works included in Song Wenzhi Collection and Complete Tang Poetry, he had a good grasp of the genre at that time and was familiar with the use of famous articles and sentences. For example, the short song "Winter Clouds Lead Sima Cheng Town" V. Friendship sentence: "In the cold pool of the bright moon, youth is fading. This feeling is not for the laity, but for endless love. " The five-character ancient poem "Title Zhang Lao Pine Tree" is a metaphor for Gao Jie's sentence: "A hundred feet without an inch of branches, you will be lonely and straight all your life." Sifu sentence in He Ming Pian, a seven-character ancient poem; "MingHe unfriendly, if I would like to take it has been tianjin. Even the weaver girl will set up a machine stone and go to the city to sell hexagrams. " The five-word quatrain "Send Du Shenyan" expresses farewell: "I am sick and have to travel thousands of miles. The river bridge does not send each other, and Jiang Shuyuan is affectionate. " Lingyin Temple, a five-character poem, draws a beautiful sentence: "The building looks at the sea, and the door faces the Zhejiang tide." They are all fresh and frank, lyrical and sincere, picturesque. Song dynasty made great contributions to the melody of poetry by emphasizing comparison and preciseness. On the basis of the creative development of Qi, Liang Shenfang and Yu Xin since the early Tang Dynasty, he and Shen Quan worked hard to practice and summarize, which made the various systems of metrical poetry reach a mature and stereotyped stage, made clear the boundary between classical poetry and modern poetry, and used this form to write excellent works such as Jiang, Late Return to Xiangjiang River and Inscription of Dayu Beishan Inn. Try reading Du Dayuling;
I left the capital as soon as I crossed the fishing ridge, then stopped my car and looked back at my hometown.
My soul followed the birds flying from the south to the north, looked at the branches in the north and shed tears.
Shan Yu started with dew, and the river wanted to turn rosy.
As long as I have the opportunity to return to Chang 'an, I dare not regret being exiled like Jia Yi.
The poet was banished to Nanxi, homesick for his hometown, sad, lyrical, euphemistic, melancholy and neat, with perfect form, deepening the theme, touching and showing a brand-new look. His advocacy and achievements with Shen (Qi Quan) in this respect have been praised by people, and they have been praised as "new voices" and given high evaluation.
Song Wenzhi lived in the early Tang Dynasty, which was the preparation period of poetry in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. At that time, the trend was that, on the one hand, the court poets represented by Yu Shinan and Shangguan Yi, such as,, and Feng, paid attention to rhetoric, parallelism, rhyme, charm and grace, and their style of writing was weak. On the one hand, a group of young poets, represented by four outstanding poets, tried to break away from the shackles of the old style and move towards health and creation. Under such a general trend, Song, who was at the threshold of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, certainly had to stay in it and choose the direction. For Yang Jiong and other four outstanding figures, Song sympathized with their misfortune and praised their achievements.
However, Song had neither the lofty ambition nor the hard life of the "Four Masters". Over time, he lost himself in the palace, even if he regretted it, there was no narrow range of personal glory, humiliation, sadness and parting. Therefore, he can only sigh at the heroic demeanor of the four great masters, and it is difficult to achieve achievements that could have been comparable to them in his creation. However, his contribution to poetry creation, especially to the statutory form of poetry, together with Shen (Qi Quan) and others, ended the new poetry movement since Qi Liang, enabling later poets to follow the trend and produce excellent works. In this respect, he is still a poet who links the past with the future.
