When I was a child, my grandfather often told me the story of Huanggu, Tingjian Valley. My hometown people used to call him Mr. Gu. At that time, according to my understanding, Grandpa's impression of Huanggu was satellites falling from the sky. He grew up in The Genius Boy, and his poems became famous when he was a child. Grandpa told me a story, saying that someone in Chang 'an heard that the valley had written a good poem, but after seeing him, he couldn't help but despise a little cowboy. He thought others were bragging and didn't want to write poems on the spot in the valley. When people in the valley saw his disdain, they deliberately gave him a hard time, and a poem "The Cowherd Poem" was born under such circumstances. "Riding an ox, I left my former village far away, and piccolo blew over the fence." How many famous people in Chang 'an are not as good as you. "The tourist blushed after hearing this, but he had to sincerely praise the talents in the valley. Grandpa, they didn't read many books and always thought Gu was talented. They even inserted the story of Jie Jin, another very famous genius in Jiangxi, into the valley. For example, there is a well-known couplet, "A door is worth a thousand bamboo poles, but a family keeps thousands of books". It is said that there is a bamboo forest in front of Jie Jin, a famous scholar in Ming Dynasty. On New Year's Eve, he posted a pair of Spring Festival couplets on the door: The door faces a thousand bamboos, and the family lives in thousands of books. The owner of the bamboo forest is a local rich man. He saw it and wanted to embarrass Xie Jin, so he had the bamboo cut down. Jie Jin understood what he meant, so he added a word to the couplet, which read: The door is as short as a thousand bamboos, and the house is as long as thousands of books. The rich man was even more annoyed when he saw it and ordered the bamboo to be uprooted. Jie Jin chuckled and added another sentence to the couplet: The door is short of thousands of bamboos, but the family keeps thousands of books. The rich finally bowed their heads and gave up. This story comes from Baidu, but I still remember it clearly today. When my grandfather told it to me, his hero was Huang Valley. I'm not denying Huang Gu's talent here. Grandpa and they admire him very much. They always thought that Huang Gu became a very big official with her own talent, and the official became bigger and bigger. His official and his talent are the same, and he has always been proud of the spring breeze.
Gradually, as I grew up, my understanding of Huang Tingjian gradually began to enrich. He is really talented, but his political career is bumpy. Almost all his official posts are idle posts, and they are proofreading and cataloging. Su Shi and Huang Tingjian, also known as "Su Huang" in the Song Dynasty, were not tolerated by politicians such as Cai Jing and Tingzhi Zhao, and as a result, they were exiled to Hainan and Guangxi respectively, and both of them died in other places. Su Shi once wrote a poem about his condemnation, "The heart is like a tree turned to dust, and the body is like an unbound ship. I heard that you have made great achievements in your life, Huangzhou Huizhou Danzhou. " He wrote about his journey south. Huang Tingjian is similar, and his two poems also describe his situation. "Wan Li will only be me, but who will turn back? There was no cone at the beginning, and there is no cone today. " "The past is not today, this year is like last year. There are many tigers and leopards in Jiuguan, talking about immortals. " Grandpa, their wishes are good. Today, when I asked the old people in my hometown, many people talked about the valley and didn't know much about his career, but when it comes to calligraphy and poetry, they talked endlessly. His hometown has various names to commemorate him, such as "Valley Wine", "Valley Tea", "Gu Dao" and "Valley Poetry Society". I think this is also a innocence of his hometown. In fact, his hometown doesn't care how many officials he has really done, and whether his official career is smooth sailing and soaring. Doesn't mean there are no big officials in my hometown. In Hangkou, the same town of Huang Tingjian, there was a prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhang Jian, but not many people knew his name. I think the whole country should be similar. Why have people in my hometown commemorated Huang Tingjian for more than a thousand years? There are many big officials in history like stars in the sky, but there is only one Huang Tingjian. I think his calligraphy should rank among the top ten in the history of China. He is one of the few figures in the history of calligraphy. He is the founder of Jiangxi Poetry School. His personality charm, his official integrity and integrity. Regarding the above points, I think we can find many articles, so I won't describe them in detail.
Finally, I want to talk about my personal views. Influenced by my grandfather, I was deeply impressed by Huang Tingjian when I was a child. He fell from the sky and could do anything. As he grew older, Huang Tingjian became more and more flesh and blood. He is a leading figure in calligraphy, leaving outstanding calligraphy works such as Song Fengge and Zhu Shangtie. He is the founder and leader of Jiangxi Poetry School. He put forward the theory of "turning the stone into gold, robbing the fetus to replace the bone". He was an honest official and failed all his life. I think everyone looks at Huang Tingjian from different angles and has their own different ideas. People who like calligraphy will pay more attention to his calligraphy works, copy them, and people who like poetry will read his poems, such as "a glass of wine in the spring breeze of peaches and plums, a lamp in the rivers and lakes for ten years" People can't help but appreciate the charm. People who care about their career will understand why they are depressed in life and learn from it. And my wife, in front of Gu's tomb, is busy paying homage, praying that my children can touch Gu's talent and bless them to study in the future. It's true, I have the same idea, but in my subconscious, the valley is not a god. The main reason why people commemorate Huang Tingjian is that he has made outstanding contributions in his own field. In the history of China, many literati were not very successful in officialdom and business, but in the long river of history, I don't want to spell these things. Shen Wansan is rich, but I think he may not be as famous as Huang Tingjian, and Shi Chong and Wang Kai are not rich. Today, I estimate that there is no one in his hometown to commemorate them, and officials in the history of China are even more like crossing the river. There are countless high positions, and not many people can leave a reputation. From these aspects, Huang Tingjian is definitely successful. Scholars have their own lofty ideals, but after thousands of years, who still remembers your original career? The impression of childhood is very vague. I will pay special attention to some records of Huang Tingjian today. Sometimes when I encounter something I don't understand, I will go online to search for his relevant information. I think anyone is similar. My childhood views will be different from today's and need to be improved gradually. Historical figures gradually have their own understanding in their hearts. Perhaps with the passage of time, the understanding of Huang Tingjian will be different. But recording it today is also a kind of thinking now.
This article was originally written during the Spring Festival, but I was so busy that I kept reminding myself when I returned to Foshan that I finally finished it today. Shuangjing village is so beautiful. Although it is near the neighboring town, it has never been there before. It has been advancing along the beautiful Jiangxiu River. There are many green hills on both sides, surrounded by bamboos, birds and flowers, and the air is fresh. I think I seldom pay attention to the beauty of my hometown, but Shuangjing gave me another understanding. The smoke is rolling here, and there are still old people working hard in the fields near the Spring Festival, vaguely returning to my childhood. Go home next year, in Chen's big house, the hometown of China traditional culture master Chen Yinque.
