Chapter 62

The old man Handan Chun is unwilling to be an official, nor is he willing to teach and educate people. He only focuses on the mountains and rivers, studying calligraphy and articles all day long, all pointing at those ancient jokes.

As the saying goes, smile, ten years less.No wonder the old man had a long life. He was born in 132 AD and died in 221 AD. He lived to be 90 years old and lived a very long life.

However, not being an official or accepting apprentices does not mean that he is not famous. In fact, Handan Chun was a very famous Jingzhou Confucianist at that time.

Later, when Cao Cao got Jingzhou, he heard about his fame, and immediately summoned him to Yecheng, wanting him to be a teacher for his two sons, Cao Pi and Cao Zhi.

After Cao Pi and Cao Zhi heard that it was Handan Chun, they rushed to visit and want to make friends with him.Cao Pi asked his father to let Handan Chun be his literary servant.Cao Zhi also begged Handan Chun very urgently.

It happened that Cao Cao was doting on Cao Zhi at this time, so he ordered Handan Chun to meet Cao Zhi. Cao Zhi was overjoyed and received him warmly and grandly, which shows how famous he is.

As a great Confucianist in the world, countless people visit him every day.Wang Can brought Shen Chen and the others here to ask for an interview, naturally hoping to win his favor.It would be even better if you can get his evaluation.

Just like Xu Shao and Sima Hui, one of them does monthly reviews and evaluates talents.The other one only said that the best talents in Jingzhou were Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, and the reputation of Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Child immediately spread throughout the world and became known to the world.

So to a certain extent, if you can visit a certain literary bigwig and get his appreciation, your reputation will be spread quickly, and your reputation will gradually rise.

Wang Can has been doing this recently. Of course, he is a famous person in Jingzhou himself, and he is very famous in Jingzhou. He no longer needs the help of big shots to make him famous.

But he is keen to help his friends. He has written many poems about friends in history, such as "Poems to Scholar Sun Wenshi", "Poems to Cai Zidu", "Poems for Pan Wenze", "Poems to Uncle Wen" Liang·Pianpianzhehong", "To Yang Dezu" and so on.

Moreover, he has a wide range of friends, many bigwigs from Jingzhou know him well, and he brought friends over to visit. During the banquet, everyone danced and exchanged academic knowledge.

After visiting Handan Chun, because of Shen Chen's good jokes and high level of knowledge, he was favored by Handan Chun. He commented that his talent and learning were very high, ranking among the best in Nanzhou.

With the big boss's endorsement, Shen Chen's reputation quickly spread.

In fact, he is now a little famous in his own right.

When he was in Xianshan Academy, he was the youngest, but his talent and learning were the highest among many students, and he was praised by Song Zhong, Wang Can and others.

In addition, he and Wang Can had a very good friendship, and the two exchanged poems and essays, became friends, and were even more admired by Wang Can.

You know, although the poems of the three Caos of later generations are very famous, like Cao Cao's "Duan Ge Xing", "Guan Cang Hai", "Gui Shi Shou" and "Hao Li Xing" are all familiar to later generations.

But in fact, the status of poetry in the late Han Dynasty was not high. It was not until after the Tang Dynasty that poetry culture reached the point of brilliance.

Therefore, writing poetry can only be regarded as a small circle. Although there are many literati in Jingzhou, there are very few poets.

Wang Can had no one to exchange his poetry experience with him, so he was very lonely.

Now that Shen Chen was able to recite poems with him and discuss poetry and literature, it naturally made him ecstatic, and he became a close friend.

For example, last year Wang Can wrote a poem called "Poem of Seven Sorrows", which was written in a moment of sadness after he fled from Chang'an to Jingzhou with Shi Sun Meng, thinking of what he saw along the way.

The full text tells the story that when he left Chang'an, he saw a hungry woman on the road, putting her own baby into the grass and discarding it.

After the poem is completed, when it is passed on to others, it can be said that those who hear it are sad, and those who listen are weeping.But no one can write poems to reconcile with him, which is regrettable.

Later, when Shen Chen learned about this time, he recalled going all the way south from Xuzhou, so he also wrote a "Poem of Seven Sorrows".

The so-called "Seven Sad Poems" is not a poem title, but a form of poetry.

It reflects social phenomena such as wars, plagues, death, parting, and frustration in turbulent times, and has high literary value.

Among them, Du Fu's "Three Officials" and "Three Farewells" are the most famous.

The earliest carrier form of poetry is Wang Can's "Xijing Chaos Without Elephants".

And Shen Chen's "Seven Apoems" is also in this form. The whole article has twelve lines and 120 characters. It describes the tragic scene of hundreds of thousands of people being massacred when they went south from Xuzhou.

The whole poem is: "He Lei Lei in Xuzhou, thousands of mounds (chuang)."

"White onyx is hung in the pavilion, and the bones are tied to the door (ang)."

"The city walls are crushed into ruins, and Zhuang Yong's remnants go to (you, xiang)."

"What's the reason? A man Tu Huaiyang."

"Looking south from the car, the hills look like Yin (yin) yellow."

"Pengcheng crossed Surabaya, Wan Xing died in the river."

"Remains pave the road, flesh and blood make mud."

"What's the reason? Cao Jun drove the people to kill (qiang)."

"The world is in chaos, and thieves and thieves are like wolves."

"There are thorns and thorns growing, and the road leads to children's sorrows."

"In the fox and rabbit's cave, there is a vast expanse of wormwood."

"I feel sobbing at the gate of Yong, and I am sad in the past and present."

The meaning of the four sentences in the first paragraph of this poem is: When passing through Xuzhou in the south, I saw piles of tombs and mounds, and there were thousands of mounds.

The village pavilions beside the road are covered with white flags, and corpses are tied to the posts tied to the horses at the gate.

The city was turned into ruins, and the manor was so dilapidated that only a wooden window remained.

Why is this so?
Cao Cao's army slaughtered north of the Huai River.

The meaning of the four sentences in the second paragraph is: looking to the south in a carriage, the mountains are as pale and yellow as if sick.

When I passed Surabaya, I saw the corpses of countless people floating in the river.

The bones paved the way, and the flesh made mud.

Why is this so?
Cao Jun's soldiers mutilated the people and drove them into the river to kill them.

The meaning of the four sentences in the third paragraph is: The end of the troubled times has come, and there are as many bandits along the way as jackals.

Brambles are overgrown in the wild, and children die on the side of the road.

Fox and rabbit dens can be seen everywhere, and the weeds grow taller than people.

Thinking of what Zizhou of Yongmen said to Lord Mengchang, what happened in ancient times is so similar to what happened today, which makes me very sad.

After the poem was written, there was no shock at all in Jingzhou Shilin.

Although some people expressed anger at Cao Cao's atrocities, but still the same sentence, poetry was not a mainstream literature in the late Han Dynasty.

The poets are not like the Tang Dynasty. If you write good poems, you can travel all over the country and you will be invited to dinner everywhere.

So most people in the world think that this poem is well written, but as to what is so good, they cannot tell why.

Only Wang Can likes it very much.

Because he is a person who understands poetry, he can naturally see the deep meaning contained in this poem.

The intention of this poem is very similar to that of his "Xijing Chao Wu Xiang".

For example, he wrote about Dong Zhuo, and Shen Chen wrote about Cao Cao; he wrote about women who abandoned their sons, and Shen Chen wrote about floating corpses in Surabaya;

According to the summary of the Chinese class representatives of later generations: "The poet depicted a tragic picture of hell in this poem, showing the pain and disasters brought to the people by the wars at the end of the Han Dynasty, and deeply reflecting the darkness and ancient times of the feudal society. The harm caused by warlord wars to the people."

So the image of Shen Chen, a poet who is concerned about the country and the people, comes alive on the paper. It is estimated that in another 2000 years, it will be a poem that the primary and middle school students of later generations must recite and silently write the full text.

Anyway, for those primary and middle school students, they don't know how much the warlord war has caused the common people.

The poems written by Shen Chen caused a ton of psychological shadows on them.

For Wang Can, the appearance of this poem naturally gave him a sense of confidant, and he often exchanged poems with Shen Chen, and occasionally Shen Chen would help him revise, which made him feel more comfortable.

In fact, Wang Can's age is not very old, he is only 19 years old this year, and Shen Chen is 11 years old.

Although there is an eight-year age difference between the two, the fact that Cai Yong was friends with him when he was in Chang'an is still vivid in his memory, so Wang Can has already regarded Shen Chen as a very good friend and is willing to help him promote his fame.

In July, Wang Can took Shen Chen to visit friends again. Although he was young, he was famous for suppressing Jingchu, and he was the successor of Sangong, so Jingzhou scholars naturally wanted to show face.

Therefore, he visited aristocratic families everywhere, such as Huang's family, Xi's family, Ma's family, Yang's family, Xiang's family, etc., and Shen Chen's reputation gradually increased.

At this time, the general situation of the world has also begun to change.

For example, in May of this year, Zhang Xiu felt deeply that there were no talented people around him to help him. He heard that Jia Xu was not doing well in Duan Yao's army, so he immediately sent people to Guanzhong and took Jia Xu to Nanyang.

In June, Yuan Shu sent Ji Ling to lead [-] troops to attack Xuzhou again. At that time, Liu Bei had been defeated by Lu Bu, and the troops were stationed in Xiaopei.

At the beginning of autumn in July, Sun Ce captured Kuaiji and defeated Wang Lang, then began to attack the local powerful Yan Baihu, drove Yan Baihu away, and completely occupied Jiangdong since then.

At the beginning of August, Liu Xie went around and finally returned to Luoyang under the escort of Yang Feng and Han Xian. At the beginning of the year, Liu Biao sent people to Luoyang to repair the palace and offered food and grass, so that Liu Xie could finally breathe.

But he soon made another big mistake, which was to send Dong Chengmi to order Cao Cao to come to Luoyang to serve as king.

In fact, strictly speaking, it is not a big mistake.

Because the escort Han Siam consciously contributed to the rescue, he took credit for it and disrupted the government, which made Liu Xie deeply disturbed, so he wanted external forces to intervene to balance the political situation.

However, he never thought that Cao Cao was a fierce tiger. Compared with him, Han Siam was just a husky, not Cao Cao's opponent at all.

At that time, Xun Yu was also advising Cao Cao to "serve the emperor to beg his ministers." Dong Cheng's secret edict was like sending charcoal in the snow. He immediately led his troops to Luoyang, and told Liu Xie the guilt of Han Siam and Zhang Yang. Han Siam fled to Yang Feng, and since then The military power in Luoyang was controlled by Cao Cao.

Liu Xie asked Cao Cao to lead Sili Xiaowei, Lu Shangshushi, and fake Jieyue, and he immediately became the most powerful minister of the Han Dynasty.

Immediately afterwards, he killed the servants Taichong, Shangshu Fengshuo and others who opposed his ruling, and completely controlled the government.

Then at the end of August, Cao Cao formally asked Liu Xie to move the capital to Xuchang on the grounds that Luoyang was ruined.

 In the last chapter, I changed the joke again, you can still go and have a look, thanks to book friend He Zai He Ye for the ideas.

  In addition, the new book list has been released, and the explosive update has officially begun.
