Wang Wei was born in an official family, and his father was an official in Sima, Fenzhou. Although the family is not prominent, it is also a scholarly family. Therefore, Wang Wei got a good education when he was young. Coupled with his talent and intelligence, Wang Wei's literary and artistic accomplishment was solid and profound. At the age of nine, he was able to write poems, calligraphy and painting, and he was proficient in temperament, which made him famous for a while. In the present words, Wang Wei is not only gifted, but also highly valued. He is also very diligent and has all the internal factors for success.
Wang Wei's official career began when he went to Beijing to take an exam. Because of his elegance and versatility, he was highly praised by Qi Wang as soon as he arrived in Chang 'an. Qi Wang suggested that he choose the elegant and elegant one from his own poems, compose a new pipa song, and go to visit Princess Yuzhen with himself. Because of the recommendation of Qi Wang, Princess Yuzhen listened to Wang Wei's performance in the mansion and was greatly impressed. Asked what words he played, Wang Wei introduced Yu Lunpao, which he wrote himself. After that, he presented the poem volume. Princess Yuzhen was shocked and said, these poems are often recited by me on weekdays. I thought they were masterpieces of the ancients, but I never thought they were written by today's young scholars. Therefore, Wang Wei was invited to the throne with courtesy and respect, and he strongly recommended it to the court. At that time, the name of Wang Wei spread all over the capital, and even the emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty knew that there was a young talent named Wang Wei. In the 19th year of Kaiyuan, Wang Wei became the top scholar and officially entered the official career. Wang Wei's high school topped the list, of course, with the recommendation of Princess Yuzhen, but his own strength is not ashamed of being at the top. After entering the officialdom, Wang Wei was promoted steadily all the way. He was first promoted to the right and soon moved to the event. Although there was a relegation in the middle, it was just a small detour for him to move forward. Of course, this greatly benefited from the care and promotion of Princess Yuzhen and a group of princes and nobles. According to legend, Princess Yuzhen loves Wang Wei very much, and even has the idea of calling him a Xu. In the face of such a talented and handsome man, it is normal for Princess Yuzhen to respect her life. At that time, Wang Wei had a childhood sweetheart's fiancee in his hometown. Although he was rich and distinguished, Wang Wei still married him as promised. It's a pity that Wang Wei's wife died when he was 3 years old. Since then, he has lived alone for 3 years, which shows the deep affection between him and his wife. It can be inferred that between Wang Wei and Princess Yuzhen, perhaps they are just bosom friends who admire each other. At least, Wang Wei should treat Princess Yuzhen with this attitude.
Wang Wei's life can be called a slightly thrilling period, which was an Anshi rebellion. In fact, he is not the only one who has experienced the turmoil in the world. Others have suffered much more than him. When An Lushan attacked Chang 'an, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty fled to the west with some royal children and court officials in a hurry. Many officials of Wang Sun had no time to escape, and they were either killed or arrested by An Lushan. Wang Wei did not escape in time and was captured by the rebels. Although An Lushan was a lout, he respected Wang Wei, a world-famous talent, and forced him to be an official to show his respect for scholars. Wang Wei had no choice but to retreat to the puppet regime and bide his time. In order not to talk as much as possible, Wang Wei even often swallowed dumb drugs and pretended that his voice was broken. On one occasion, An Lushan held a banquet in Ningbichi, called the children of Liyuan to have fun and let Wang Wei write lyrics. Wang Wei was deeply impressed by the destruction of the country and the death of the people, and wrote a poem: Every family is sad and gives birth to wild smoke, and when will a hundred officials go to the sky again? Autumn Sophora japonica fell into vain in the palace, and condensed the pond to play the orchestral strings. The meaning in the poem is very clear. I miss my motherland and feel sad about people's livelihood. I hope to return to the class and visit my old master. Poetry is not only devoid of joy, but full of sentimental thoughts. Want to come to An Lushan, there is no culture, the meaning of the poem should be understood. Strangely, An Lushan didn't embarrass Wang Wei. It was this sentimental poem that later saved Wang Wei. After the imperial court put down the Anshi Rebellion, all those who had served as officials in the puppet government in An Lushan were convicted and punished, and the serious ones lost their lives, while the light ones lost their official positions. According to the regulations, Wang Wei will also be convicted, and at least he will be demoted. However, Wang Jin, who was then the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice, was willing to resign because he had written the poem full of affection for the old country and his younger brother. The imperial court alone pardoned Wang Wei among many fake officials, and the official was reinstated. Not only that, but he was promoted and reused in the near future, and he was appointed as Shangshu Youcheng, with a prominent position. However, after this chaos, Wang Wei was no longer enthusiastic about his official career. He found a reason. He resolutely resigned from his senior position and built a museum in Wangchuanzhuang, south of Lantian County, and began to live in seclusion. Every day, I wrote poems as articles, played the piano and drank wine, and sang with celebrities such as Qiu Wei and Pei Di. My life was as calm as water, and I was at ease until my death. Before he died, he calmly wrote a book, said goodbye to his relatives and friends one by one, and stopped writing and emerged safely.
Wang Weigong is good at painting and poetry, and he is proficient in temperament. He is a veritable genius. His poetic attainments are extremely high. Tang Yin-gan's Collection of Heroes of the River and Yue commented on him: Uygur poems are elegant and elegant, with new ideas, and they are pearls in the spring and painted on the wall. Every word is out of the ordinary environment. In particular, his frontier poems and pastoral poems are particularly appreciated. His frontier poem "Make it to the frontier": If a bicycle wants to ask the frontier, it is a country that has lived for a long time. Fleabane also floated out of Han, north to geese are soaring into the sky.
the desert is lonely and straight, and the long river sets the yen. To the the location of Xiaoguan pass encounter the spy waiting for the knight, told me that the douhu have been in Yan.
It is a masterpiece of frontier poems in the Tang Dynasty, with a vast realm and vigorous weather.
pastoral poetry is a must for Wang Wei. The spring is full of algae, the clouds are full of emotions, fresh and distant, natural and refined, silent and ethereal, and Zen is endless. He also won the reputation of "Shi Fo". Ming Hu Yinglin said that he: You Cheng entered Zen Buddhism, for example, "When people are idle, osmanthus flowers fall, and the night is quiet and the mountains are empty. When the moon comes out, it surprises the mountain birds, and when it sounds in the spring stream, "and" hibiscus flowers at the end of wood, red calyx in the mountains. " There is no one in the family, and they are opening and falling. " I have forgotten my life experience, and all my thoughts are silent. It doesn't mean that there is such a wonderful tune in the melody.
a Farm-house on the Wei River can reflect the basic characteristics and artistic style of his pastoral poems:
The setting sun shines on the ruins, cattle and sheep trail home along the lane.
and a rugged old man in a thatch door, leans on a staff and thinks of his son, the herdboy.
there are whirring pheasants? full wheat-ears, silk-worms asleep, pared mulberry-leaves.
Hojo, Fu Tian, hail one another familiarly.
no wonder I long for the simple life, and am sighing the old song, Oh, to go Back Again!.
a natural, harmonious, plain and quiet rural scene is full of carefree mood, which makes people feel carefree and fascinated.
Wang Wei is not only good at poetry, but also good at painting. Yuan Xin's study room said, "Poetry goes into exquisite products, so does painting thinking. When the landscape is far away, the clouds are full of stone colors, and it is impossible to learn." He himself is quite proud of his good painting, and he used to be a poet: a contemporary poet, and his predecessor was a painter. This means that Ben is an excellent painter, but he is wrongly praised as a poet. The most representative of Wang Wei's painting achievements is his landscape painting, and Su Dongpo praised him: the poem is full of paintings; Watch the painting, there are poems in the painting. Between the green landscape of Li Sixun and his son and the freehand landscape of Wu Daozi, Wang Wei found a new way to create the technique of breaking the ink landscape, and was honored as the "originator of Nanzong" in China landscape painting.
Wang Wei is also proficient in temperament. He writes lyrics, composes and plays all by himself. In modern times, he is a very comprehensive musician. What height did his musical attainments reach? There is a story to illustrate. A friend of his once got a famous painting "According to Music Map", in which a group of musicians were playing music, and his friend deliberately took it to consult Wang Wei, who immediately pointed out that the person in the picture was playing the first shot of the third stack of colorful plumage. A friend found a comparison of music scores, and it was as Wang Wei said. Painting can only express a static scene, and music is flowing, but Wang Wei can see the flowing melody in a still picture, which shows his profound musical skills.
Du Fu lamented: the greater the timber, the tougher it is to use. Li Bai is sentimental: saints and sages have been lonely since ancient times. It doesn't apply to Wang Wei. Wang Wei is a generalist, so he is supposed to be of great use. But he is not only proud of his official career, but also famous, and his worldly interests and aspirations have been realized, which can be described as fame and fortune. A perfect life is the ideal realm that many scholars dream of! However, Wang Wei alone can do all the work, which is due to Wang Wei's superhuman wisdom. Calm when you are proud, loyal and just when you are swinging, and rushing back at the peak, you need not only patience, but also courage. Of course, you must have inherent talent, long-term hard work, and especially indifference close to Buddhism and Taoism. With all this hidden, Wang Wei is not complete!
