It comes from what Zhang Zai said in Mingxi: poverty and sadness, wealth and success.
When Zhang Zai was young, he liked to study the art of war. He wrote to Fan Zhongyan, hoping to form a corps to recover the land lost by Xixia invasion. Fan Zhongyan appreciated his talent and advised him: "Scholars have their own careers to do, so why talk about military affairs?"
Zhang Zai devoted himself to study. Later, Zhang Zaizhong became a scholar and served as several local officials. Because he dared to speak out, he offended Wang Anshi. At the age of 49, he resigned and went home to study at home. Every morning, he plunges into his study, closes the door, studies hard all day, thinks about problems often and forgets to eat and sleep. It's late at night, his wife and children are already asleep, and he's still thinking in bed.
