& gt Jie Jin (Xie Jin), also known as Gentry, Chunyu, is from Yi Xi. Jishui people in the Ming Dynasty are now Jishui in Jiangxi. Jie Jin was considerate since childhood, and he was called the three great talents of Ming Dynasty together with Xu Wei and Yang Shen. Hongwu was a scholar in twenty-one years, then a cabinet official and a university student in Youchunfang, and participated in the maintenance. Jie Jin was rejected by people because of his talent and honesty, and was demoted many times, and finally "no minister" went to prison. He died a terrible death. In the winter of the thirteenth year of Yongle, he was buried in a snowdrift and froze to death. He was only 47 when he died. Later, in the first year of Chenghua, he died as a doctor. Jie Jin has made great contributions in the history of literature. He presided over the compilation of the famous Yongle Grand Ceremony. He is the author of Xie Xueshi's Collection and Tian Huangyu's Death. President Lu and Biography of Ancient and Modern Women: The ink includes The Book of Songs, Tang poems, Zhao Heng and the Imperial Examination in Song Dynasty.

Such a poetic and complacent scholar not only left us many treasures in the history of literature, but also praised his short stories for future generations.

First, there is a gentleman in Jishui City who is arty and likes to make friends with literati. One day, the gentleman gave a banquet for celebrities, and Jie Jin and his son were also invited. One of them, a juren without real talent and learning, said to Jie Jin, "I have a pair of online couplets. If you don't, you will lose the title of prodigy early. " After that, the first couplet came out on the sidewalk: Toad Toad is making trouble in the garden, jumping around is annoying; Jie Jin was very angry when he heard that his words hurt others. He said rudely, a mad dog barked at the threshold, wagging its head and tail to make the guests laugh. Hearing this, everyone here burst into laughter.

Secondly, it is said that a Taoist worships Jie Jin very much, and specially visits him with his portrait, and respectfully asks Jie Jin to write poems for him. Jie Jin took the portrait and immediately wrote three words "thief" like a dragon snake. When the Taoist priest saw it, he was surprised and angry, and he was about to have an attack. He saw Jie Jin smiling and calmly continued to write. Together with the three words "thief" written earlier, it became a very interesting poem with a portrait: thief, thief, invisible. I only stole the elixir, and now I am a Penglai guest. Penglai is a fairy mountain on the sea in myths and legends. As a Taoist, "Penglai guest" means becoming immortal. It is said that the Eight Immortals crossed the sea from Penglai Pavilion. This poem first says that the Taoist priest is a thief, and then interprets the word "thief" as a praise for his practice. It is no wonder that after reading it, the Taoist priest turned from surprised anger to surprised, and thousands of Xie Wan died.

Thirdly, one day, a wealthy Weng family held a grand banquet for his wife's birthday and invited Jie Jin to dinner again and again. Jie Jin felt cordial and went to congratulate him. When the wine was warm and the ears were hot, there was an old man called Poetry Celebration. Jie Jin took advantage of this excitement and immediately responded: This woman is not human. Hearing this disrespectful remark, she raised her seat in shock, and a male father and son were even more angry. Jie Jin didn't think so, and continued quietly: Nine fairies descended to earth. I see. I'm sorry. Then he turned to another sentence and heard Jie Jin read: All sons are thieves, and everyone was shocked. I saw Jie Jin say, I stole a flat peach and gave it to my mother. Weng's son suddenly turned anger into joy, and all the guests praised him.

Fourthly, it is said that one day, Emperor Yongle suddenly said to Jie Jin, "Do you know that there was a happy event in the palace last night? Sing a poem! " Jie Jin thought that the word "happiness" might be the birth of the queen, so he chanted: Last night, the king gave a golden dragon and compared the prince to "golden dragon", which was auspicious. Unexpectedly, Emperor Yongle said, "It's a girl." Jie Jin rolled his eyes and then said, "Being Chang 'e is nine times as heavy. ".

It is ingenious, natural and seamless to change the birth of a boy into a girl through a word "Hua". Emperor Yongle originally used this title to embarrass Jie Jin, so he deliberately sighed and said, "It's a pity that he died at birth." Jie Jin was ready, and blurted out: It is expected that the world can't stay long, and Emperor Yongle added: "The body has been thrown into the pool." Jie Jin sang again: Turn over and jump into the Crystal Palace. The dialogue between the monarch and the ministers fully demonstrated Jie Jin's eloquence and ease of handling. Because of this, taboo words can be skillfully and appropriately explained.

Fifth, one day, Jie Jin invited a friend to chat. But when Jie Jin went to a friend's house, he saw a couplet on the door:

Idle people are not allowed in;

Catch the thief.

Jie Jin was deep in thought: I came here today, neither idle nor a thief, and I came by appointment. Why is my friend so rude? But he looked carefully again and found that there was still a blank under the couplet, and there was pen and ink by the door. Jie Jin suddenly realized that his friend wanted him to renew his marriage before he entered. Jie Jin wanted to think, and began to continue the couplet:

Idle people are not allowed to enter the sages;

No thieves, no monks.

Jie Jin finished writing, then pushed the door and went in. My friend saw the sidewalk and said, "Isn't it written on my door that no one is allowed in?" Jie Jin smiled and said, "to open the door again. I appeared as a saint today and let you shine. Why don't you thank me? " The friend looked at the couplet on the door and smiled: "Dude really raised a yard."

Sixthly, Celosia cristata is an annual erect grass flower of Amaranthaceae, which is named because its erect fleshy inflorescence looks like a rooster's crown. Once, Jie Jin and Emperor Yongle were playing in the garden, and the emperor suddenly ordered Jie Jin to write poems with cockscomb flowers. Jie Jin thought for a moment and said: The comb was originally dyed with rouge. As soon as the words fell, the emperor took out the white comb from behind and said, "It's not rouge, it's white." Jie Jin improvised and then sang again: Why are you wearing light makeup today? Because of the greed of the fifth watch, I still wear frost. Jie Jin responded well, his words were extraordinary, and his association was wonderful. The emperor was very happy to hear that.

There are many interesting stories about Jie Jin mentioned above. It is not difficult to see that Jie Jin is clever.
