Some people are single all their lives because no one loves them, some people see through the world of mortals, but some people simply abandon marriage, a lifestyle that binds love freedom, because so many people love themselves. The best of these bachelors is Liu Yong, the founder of graceful and restrained ci school in Song Dynasty, who is called "White Snake" and "Flower Emperor". Liu Yong is a typical cynic. When he is angry, he can grieve the emperor. The reason why he stayed in the brothel is directly related to his personality. Liu Yong's father, uncle, brother, son and nephew are all scholars. In order not to be divorced from the masses, he also plunged into the torrent of imperial examinations early. But his talent is unique in the field of ci, and he doesn't want to make friends with dignitaries as their agents. He doesn't have much popularity in the upper class, which unfortunately has a great influence on his future career. In fact, although he is lofty, he is still addicted to officialdom. When he was young, he went to Beijing to take the exam for the first time and failed because of stage fright. The second time, I probably failed again because I didn't play well. Probably, the failure of the list hit him too hard, and the young people were too popular to control their tongues. He even let his temper dominate him and wrote his first complaint, Tian Chong, which is better than Shanxi mature vinegar. There is a saying called "endure the name, change the shallow water." It is tantamount to accusing the imperial examination system of Dasong of being worthless and a product of failure. He is happy, but some people are sad. The "someone" here was the then emperor Song Renzong. Perhaps it was because Crane was so famous that it was sent to the console in Song Renzong a few days after it was finished. Emperor Renzong is a man who loves talents. Fan Zhongyan, Ouyang Xiu, Fu Bi, Wang Anshi, Sima Guang, Su Xun, Su Shi and other most famous literary figures in the Song Dynasty all shined brilliantly under his rule. This article by Liu Dacai completely denies his achievements in half a lifetime, and it is impossible not to be angry. I guess he must have said something: Liu Yong, waiting for you, son. Three years later, Liu Yong came to Beijing to take the exam again. This time, he didn't have stage fright, and his performance was not bad. He passed the exam smoothly, waiting for the emperor to circle the pen and put it on the list. Who knows, Emperor Injong saw the word "Liu Yong" in the register, and Long Yan flew into a rage. He hated Liu Yong's name and said, "Go to shallow irrigation and sing low songs. Why are you famous? " Since then, Liu Yong has struggled for many years, and he has never been a scholar in high school. Without a job and money, poor Liu Yong went to brothels of all sizes, wrote lyrics and sold them to prostitutes to sing, and then made some money. In his own words, it is "a decree to write." Needless to say, Liu Yong's literary talent. Although there are only more than 200 pieces of his works, the tones used are as many as 150, and most of them are new tones that have never been seen before, which are long and slow in nine cases. This made a great contribution to the liberation and progress of Song Ci. Moreover, his writing is popular and colloquial, which is as widely circulated as Bai Juyi's poems in the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, the famous prostitutes in the pavilion at the beginning of the dynasty and Kaifeng didn't know him. If a prostitute says she doesn't know Liu Qi, she will be laughed at by everyone. At that time, prostitutes in the city were preaching slogans: I don't want to wear silk, I want to follow six or seven; If the king doesn't want to call, he is willing to get Liu Qi's phone number. I don't want two thousand gold, I want seven hearts on the willow tree; I don't want to see immortals, but I want to know all aspects of willow trees. Since it is so popular, an affair is inevitable. Liu Yong wrote in a poem "Xijiang Moon": Teasing the teacher is the most common, with many sweet feelings and many dark feelings. Winter and winter, we live in peace, and we live alone. "Shishi", "Xiangxiang" and "Dongdong" were the three famous prostitutes at that time: Chen Shishi, Zhao Xiangxiang and Lacker. These three people are just the most famous of his many lovers, and countless others have not been mentioned. Liu Yong leads a dissolute life, but he is not good at making a living. He has neither family nor property, and his livelihood depends on these confidants. Otherwise, he would have starved to death in the street. In the brothel, you can not only find the source of respect and life, but also find love and confidante. spirit

Liu Yong was later renamed Sanliubian. After taking the imperial examination again, he only got a job in Yuhang County. Passing Jiangzhou, I met Xie as usual. In her study, I saw a copy of Liu Qi's New Words, which she copied in lower case. So I was very close to her when I watched it, and my talents matched well. When he left, Liu Yong wrote a new word saying that it would never change, and Xie vowed to close the door until Liu Yong came back one day. Liu Yong worked in Yuhang for three years and made many famous prostitutes in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but he never forgot to thank him. Ren returned to Beijing to meet her in Jiangzhou. Yu Ying didn't want to meet new guests, so she went drinking with someone else. Liu Yong was disappointed. He wrote a poem on the flower wall, describing his love situation three years ago and showing his unhappiness in standing up today. Finally, he said: "Seeing that Song Yu of Lantai is versatile and gifted, I would like to ask, where is the cloud going?" Xie turned to read Liu Yong's words and lamented that he was a sentimental wit. He was ashamed of not keeping his former alliance, so he sold his furniture and rushed to Tokyo to find Liu Yong. After many twists and turns, Xie found Liu Yong in the home of Chen Shishi, a famous prostitute in Tokyo. After a long separation, all kinds of feelings can't be said. The two got along well before the repair. Xie lives in the East Courtyard of Chen Shishi and married Liu Yongru. Liu Yong indulged in the wilderness for many years and finally died happily in Zhao Xiangxiang's house. Because he had no wife and intimate friends in officialdom, no one cared after his death. Zhao Xiangxiang, Chen Shishi and other good people went all out and collected a sum of money for his burial. On the day of the funeral, all prostitutes in Kaifeng went on strike for one day and came to attend his funeral. This is the story of "A group of prostitutes buried Liu Qi with alloy". Xie's feelings and dedication to him were the deepest, because he was too sad and died two months later. Teacher Chen and others buried her next to Liu Yong's tomb, which also gave up the wish of this romantic genius.
