Expand Edit This paragraph Character introduction Qu Yuan (340 BC - 278 BC) is the earliest romantic poet in China. His surname is Mi (mǐ). The Qu family, whose name is Ping and whose courtesy name is Yuan, is a descendant of Qu Xia, the son of Xiong Tong, King Wu of Chu. He is the first great patriotic poet to leave his name in the history of Chinese literature. His appearance marks that Chinese poetry has entered a new era from collective singing to individual singing. Qu Yuan was born in Lepingli, Sanlv Township, Zigui (now Zigui County, Yichang City, Hubei Province) in 340 BC. Qu Yuan was studious and ambitious since he was a child. In his early years, he was trusted by King Huai of Chu and served as Zuotu and Sanlu officials. He often discussed state affairs with King Huai, participated in the formulation of laws, advocated clear regulations, promoted talents, reformed politics, united Qi to resist Qin, and advocated "beautiful government" . With Qu Yuan's efforts, Chu's national strength increased. He was an upright person, but he was unwilling to listen to Shangguan officials when revising the laws and regulations. In addition, King Chu Huai's Ling Yin Zilan, Shangguan officials Jin Shang and Qu Yuan's favorite concubine Zheng Xiu. They were bribed by Qin's envoy Zhang Yi, which not only prevented King Huai from accepting Qu Yuan's opinions, but also caused King Huai to alienate Qu Yuan. In 305 BC, Qu Yuan objected to King Chu Huai's signing of the Yellow Thorn Alliance with Qin, but Chu still completely fell into the arms of Qin. As a result, Qu Yuan was also expelled from Yingdu by King Huai of Chu and began his life in exile. As a result, King Chu Huai was lured away by Qin under the strong instigation of his youngest son Zilan and others. King Chu Huai was imprisoned and died in Qin. After King Xiang of Chu came to the throne, Qu Yuan continued to be persecuted and was exiled to the south of the Yangtze River. In 278 BC, Qin general Bai Qi led his troops southward and captured the capital of Chu. Qu Yuan's political ideals were shattered and he despaired of his future. Although he wanted to serve his country, he was unable to save his life and had to die to express his ambition. In May of the same year He committed suicide by throwing himself into the Luo River out of hatred. The people were very sad when they heard the bad news and rushed to salvage his body, but found nothing. So, some people wrapped glutinous rice with reed leaves and threw it into the river to worship Qu Yuan. This kind of sacrificial activity was passed down year by year and gradually became a custom. The fifth day of the fifth lunar month is now designated as the Dragon Boat Festival.
"I'm going to Zhugxi in the morning, and I'm staying in the morning sun at night. I have a straight heart, but it hurts me even though it's so far away." It is the ape's home in the dark. The mountains are high and block out the sun, and it is dark and rainy. The snow is endless, and the clouds are falling. I feel sorry for the joylessness of my life, and I am alone in the mountains. .
I cannot change my mind and follow the secular ways, otherwise I will end up miserable and poor. " During his exile, Qu Yuan left many immortal masterpieces for later generations. His works have gorgeous words, strange imagination, novel metaphors, and profound connotations, which have become one of the origins of Chinese literature.

“The water in Canglang is clear, so I can wash my tassel; the water in Canglang is turbid, so I can wash my feet. "After Qu Yuan was exiled, in a conversation with his fisherman, the fisherman advised him to "get away from the world" and not to "think deeply and think highly" and bring trouble on his own. Qu Yuan said that he would rather die in the river than to be innocent. , suffer from the dust of the world. In Fisherman's view, you don't have to be too noble in life. If the world is clean, you can be an official; The conversation between Qu Yuan and the fisherman showed two philosophies of life. In 278 BC, the Qin State captured Yingdu, the capital of the Chu State. On May 5 of that year, Qu Yuan threw himself into the Miluo River with a large stone in his arms. . The Dragon Boat Festival is said to have come from this.
