Song Wenzhi, a native of Fenyang, Shanxi Province in the Tang Dynasty, was born in humble origins.
His father, Song, is fond of learning, making friends and being versatile.
He is not only rich in words, but also powerful and excellent in calligraphy, so he is called the Three Musts.
During the period, he served as a Zuo Langzhong in Wuzhi, and also worked as a civil servant school official with a bachelor's degree in Dongtai.
It can be said that it is really versatile and has a good reputation.
Under the influence of his father, Song and his two younger brothers are diligent and studious, and everyone has a unique father.
Eldest brother Song is brave. The second brother, Song Zhixun, is good at Cao Li.
Song Wenzhi inherited his father's poetic talent, and he was quite famous for writing poems in his early years. He, Lu Zangyong, Sima, Gou, Li Bai, Meng Haoran, Wang Wei and He are also called the Ten Immortal Friends.
Plus, he was tall and handsome, so he entered the Tang Dynasty before he was twenty.
It was during the reign of Wu Zetian.
On one occasion, Wu Zetian was in Youlong, and called the ministers to write poems, stipulating that whoever wrote quickly and well would win.
The prize is the only brocade robe worth thousands of dollars.
"Zuo's Oriental Autumn" was first completed, and he wrote quite well.
The title of this poem "Wing Chun Xue":
"Chun Xue is full of air and feels like a flower. I wonder if the trees in the garden are really plums? " .
Very good. Wu Zetian admired him and was very satisfied.
According to the rules of the game, Wu Zetian ordered him to be given a brocade dress as a reward for his talent.
Just as Oriental Autumn won the prize, before he could sit down after thanking humbly, Song's poem was also written, entitled "English Branch in Longmen":
"Night rain Ji atmosphere, YunXi. Liu is on the bank of the river, and Yuan Shuhua is in front. At this time, the flowers and willows in Luoyang are thick, and the landscape towers are reflected several times. Qi Huangong blows the fog toward the phoenix, and the son of heaven chisels the dragon with Spring Festival travel rush. "
After seeing it, Wu Zetian marveled at the ingenuity of nature and thought that his poems were better than those of Oriental Autumn.
Wu Zetian, regardless of the face of Oriental Autumn, just ordered someone to tear off the brocade he gave him and give it to Song.
At that time, Oriental Autumn was blue in the face, but there was nothing he could do. Who makes their skills inferior to others?
Song's early poems showed true feelings, simplicity and naturalness.
But with his influence in officialdom, his poems, like his personality, gradually began to kitsch.
For example, when he saw that Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Changzong were favored, he took the initiative to woo and flatter them and even volunteered to write a book for them.
The Zhang brothers were very comfortable to be photographed by him, so they repeatedly recommended Song to Wu Zetian as a bachelor of North Gate.
North Gate Bachelor is nominally a book for Huang Wu, but in fact it is Wu Zetian's personal servant and brain trust.
They played a very important role in the establishment of the great week when Wu Zetian proclaimed himself emperor.
In other words, obtaining the title of "Bachelor of North Gate" is equivalent to entering the power center of Huang Wu.
But Wu Zetian never promised.
Later, I learned that Wu Zetian disliked his bad breath.
After the Shenlong coup, the Zhang brothers were killed, and Song was demoted to Luozhou (now Luoding, Guangdong) to join the army because of his involvement.
In the degraded map, I passed Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou.
Lingyin Temple was built in the first year of Xianhe in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, at the foot of Lingyin Mountain in the west of Hangzhou West Lake.
There is Feilai Peak next to Lingyin Temple, with beautiful scenery. Scholars of all ages like to recite poems and leave poems here.
While appreciating the beautiful scenery of Feilaifeng, Wen Zhi of Song Dynasty appreciated the poems and songs left by literati in past dynasties.
Unconsciously, it was already evening.
At this time, Feilai Peak sparkled in the shadow of the sunset.
The mountains are lush with trees and flowing water.
And the solemn Lingyin Temple is becoming more and more noble and mysterious in this strange scenery.
As night fell, Song entered Lingyin Temple.
After enjoying the beautiful scenery all day, he really wants to write a good poem for Lingyin Temple.
Therefore, the night is already deep, and Song He is still not sleepy.
He wandered in the moonlight, thinking hard.
In the middle of the night, I finally came up with two sentences: "Vulture Ridge is gloomy and lonely, and Dragon Palace Lock is lonely."
However, after writing these two sentences, Song couldn't figure out how to write in the future.
He paced in the temple yard again and again.
Walking in the moonlight in the courtyard, I lamented the two sentences I just wrote over and over again.
At this time, people have fallen asleep, only Leng Yue accompanied Song.
Suddenly, Song heard someone behind him ask, "What's the matter with the benefactor staying up late at night?"
Song Wenzhi looked back in surprise and saw an old monk in his sixties standing in the moonlight.
The old monk is tall and distinguished, and at first glance he is a learned man.
Song saluted the old monk and said, "Master, you're welcome. Seeing that the scenery is so good next time, he wants to write a poem in the moonlight. I just wrote two sentences, but I can't write any more. I want to finish writing this poem, so I can't sleep at night. "
The old monk asked, "Can the benefactor read the first two sentences to the poor monk?"
Song Wenzhi read out two poems he had just written.
Hearing this, the old monk thought for a moment and said, "benefactor, do you think this is good?" Looking at the sea, the door is facing the Zhejiang tide. "
"Good poetry, good poetry, rhyming with the scenery, is really a rare good poem." Song was overjoyed and repeatedly saluted the old monk.
The old monk smiled and disappeared into the depths of the night.
That night, Song wrote a complete Lingyin Temple:
The vulture ridge is gloomy, and the Dragon Palace is lonely.
Look at the sea, the door is facing the tide in Zhejiang.
In the middle of the month, laurel trees fall and fragrant clouds float outside.
If you climb the tower, you will find that spring is far away.
Frost is thin, flowers are hairy, and ice leaves are not withered.
The age of rewelding is still different, and the search is right.
Stay on Tiantai Road and look at the extra stone bridge.
Song's two sentences are seamless with those sent by the old monk.
The poem is natural.
The happier Song Yue thinks about it.
He wanted to show the poem to the old monk at once, but it was too late, so he had to go back to his room to rest.
The next day, when Yi Song got up, he immediately thought of the old monk last night and couldn't wait to ask the old monk for advice with his newly written poem.
However, after searching all over the temple, I didn't see the old monk again.
Song inquired about the monks in the temple and realized that the old monk had gone down the mountain early in the morning.
No one knows where he went.
Later, a monk quietly told Song that this old monk was probably a great poet who had been missing for many years in the early Tang Dynasty.
Didn't Robin Wang die long ago? Why is it here?
According to legend, when Emperor Wu ascended the throne, Xu Jingye rose up against Wu Zetian.
After his failure, he eloped with Luo.
The generals who fought against the rebels failed to catch the king. In order to escape punishment, they found two people who looked like Wang, cut off their heads and went back to work.
King Robin fled to Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou, where he became a monk and has been hiding ever since.
Maybe that night, when he heard Song recite poems, he took two sentences on impulse.
In this way, Wang Luobin realized that his identity might be exposed, so he fled to other places again to continue wandering.
At that time, because of one of his poems, I didn't know where I would travel.
I'm afraid I'll never come back
"No wonder this person is telling, turned out to be the famous king Robin. Unfortunately, I missed this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for advice, and I am afraid I will never see Teacher Luo again. " Song Wenzhi repeatedly lamented.
Because Longzhou is located in Lingnan, which is extremely remote, Song could not adapt to the living environment there at all.
So, the next spring, he quietly fled back to Luoyang and hid in the home of his good friend Zhang Zhongzhi.
Although Wu Zetian was dead at that time, the remnants of the Wu family were still there, and the influence of Wu Zetian's nephew Wu Sansi was still outstanding.
The ministers of the old Tang dynasty were all planning how to get rid of the martial forces, and Zhang Zhongzhi was also involved.
Disembarking, when the ministers were discussing in Zhong Zhang's home, they were heard by Song.
His bad habit broke out again. He went to Wu Sansi to report it.
As a result, the plot failed and Zhang Zhongzhi's family was killed.
After the fall of Wu Sansi, he found Princess Anle as a new patron.
However, Princess Taiping, Princess Anle's political enemy, was extremely dissatisfied with him, took the opportunity to participate in one of his books, betrayed his friends and exposed his bribery scandal.
When Tang Zhongzong heard about it, he was demoted to a long history of Yuezhou (now Shaoxing).
Then Li Longji acceded to the throne.
He hated the scandal of Song, so he killed it in his apartment.
At the age of 56.
