Detailed stories about Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun

The phoenix returns to its hometown and travels around the world to seek its phoenix.

If you don’t meet me at that time and you have nothing to do, how can you realize that you are going to be promoted to this hall now?

There is a beautiful lady in the boudoir, and the people in the room are poisonous to my intestines.

How come they are like mandarin ducks with their necks crossed, and they are soaring!

The emperor comes to live with me, and I have to entrust you to be your concubine forever.

Who is the one who knows how to communicate and understand each other in the middle of the night?

Both wings are rising and flying high, without feeling, my thoughts make me sad.

Sima Xiangru, born in Peng'an, Nanchong, Sichuan, with the courtesy name Changqing, was a great poet and poet in the Western Han Dynasty. The story of his elopement with Zhuo Wenjun has long been popular and has become a legend. According to the "Historical Records: Biography of Sima Xiangru": He was a capital official and an official from the Liang Kingdom who returned to Shu from a trip to Shu. At the invitation of his friend Wang Ji, the commander of Linqiong (now Qionglai, Sichuan), he went as a guest. Zhuo Wenjun, the daughter of the local richest man Zhuo Wangsun, is talented and beautiful, proficient in music, and is a young widow. Once, Zhuo Wangsun held a grand banquet for hundreds of people. Wang Ji and Xiangru were invited to attend as distinguished guests. During the dinner, Wang Ji introduced Xiangru to the piano and asked him to play the piano. Xiangru played two piano pieces in public, hoping to provoke Wenjun. "Wenjun secretly peeped at it from the door. He was pleased with it and liked it, but he was afraid that it was inappropriate. After that, Xiangru sent someone to give Wenjun's servant (maid) Tong Yinqin. Wenjun died at night and ran to Xiangru, so Xiangru was "Return to Chengdu with Chi." These two poems are said to be the lyrics of "Feng Qiu Huang" sung by Xiangru playing the piano. Because this poem was not recorded in "Historical Records", it was first included in "Yutai Xinyong" compiled by Xu Ling in the Chen Dynasty, with a preface explaining that it was also included in books such as "Yiwen Leiju" in the Tang Dynasty and "Yuefu Poems Collection" in the Song Dynasty. It is suspected that the work was commissioned by Sima Xiangru, a harp worker of the Han Dynasty. There are indeed many false claims in works such as Qinge, but it is difficult to find a definite basis to prove it. Regarding this issue, we can only have doubts.

The first song expresses Sima Xiangru’s infinite admiration and passionate pursuit of Zhuo Wenjun. Xiangru refers to himself as a phoenix, and Bi Wenjun as an emperor (phoenix), which has multiple meanings in the specific context of this poem.

Throughout the ages, most men have always been disappointing. Sima Xiangru is no exception. When he showed some success in his career and was finally recommended to be an official, he lived in the capital for a long time, admired all the beauties in the world, and was proud of his officialdom, so he actually wanted to abandon his wife and take concubines. The days of adversity, passion, and deep love have long been forgotten now. Where can I remember that there is a wife thousands of miles away who misses her husband day and night. Wenjun stayed alone in his empty house, living a lonely life day after day, year after year. The song "Baitou Yin", "...I heard that you have two minds, so I came here to make a decision. I wish to win the heart of the same person and live forever...." expresses her persistence and yearning for love as well as a woman's unique determination and determination. Tenacity. It also adds a bit of beautiful sadness to their stories.

Finally one day, Sima Xiangru sent a thirteen-character letter to his wife: One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, ninety million. The smart Zhuo Wenjun burst into tears after reading it. There is only one "100 million" missing in a line of numbers. Doesn't the absence of 100 million indicate that her husband is "unintentional" towards her? Her heart is as cold as water. With great sadness, I replied with a "Poem of Resentful Man".

His poem says: After a farewell, the two places hang together. Just say March and April, who knows five or six years. The lyre has no intention of playing, the eight lines of Chinese characters cannot be conveyed, the nine links are broken in the middle, and the gaze of the ten-mile long pavilion is about to penetrate. I miss you a lot, I miss you a lot, I have no choice but to blame you. Thousands of words can't be finished, and I can't stand it until I'm bored. Nine times and nine times, I climb high to see the lone wild goose. In August and mid-autumn, the moon is full and people are not round. In July and a half, I hold candles and burn incense and ask the sky. In the dog days of June, when everyone shakes fans, I feel chilled. In May, pomegranates are as red as fire, but they are watered by bursts of cold rain. In April, the loquats are not yet yellow, and I want to look in the mirror and feel confused. Suddenly, in March, the peach blossoms drifted with the water, and in February, the kite string broke. Hey, Lang, Lang, I wish that in the next life, you would be a girl and I would be a boy.

After reading his wife’s letter, Sima Xiangru couldn’t help but marvel at his wife’s talent. Thinking back on the love between husband and wife in the past, I was so ashamed that I never mentioned the matter of my surviving wife taking concubines again. This poem has become the representative digital poem of Zhuo Wenjun's life. Read it carefully, and the intertwined feelings of love and hate emerge vividly on the page.

Zhuo Wenjun is smart. She used her wisdom to save her husband's betrayal. She worked hard on her love and marriage, and finally came to the end of her hardships. In the end, they did not abandon their initial love and final persistence. This also makes their story turn over and over again, becoming a love story above the world.

Zhuo Wenjun is a talented woman who is thoughtful, courageous, and dares to love and hate. Her life should be worth it.

For example, running at night is full of romance, such as love at first sight that can be encountered but cannot be sought, such as staying with the person you love until you grow old hand in hand, etc. If a woman is like this all her life, what more can a husband ask for? Later, people wrote a poem based on this incident: "Wangjiang Pavilion"

When the beautiful woman is as beautiful as a flower, she does not remember that her heart is boundless.

I have failed to make a promise tonight, please take pity on me for not having a home yet.

The first four words of the sentence combined are: "I will live up to you"

Story 2:

Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun

Empress Dowager Dou advocated the "Huang Lao" theory, dismissed Dou Ying and Tian Chen who supported Confucianism from their official positions, and successively appointed several ignorant people as prime minister, imperial censor and doctor. Emperor Wu did not want to discuss matters with them. It was boring to stay in the palace, so he often changed into casual clothes and went out to play and hunt. Sometimes he ran far away and did not come back for four or five days in a row. Later, he felt that running too far was not only dangerous but also hard work, so he ordered Guanglu doctor Wuqiu Shouwang to build a large garden called Shanglin Garden. The young Emperor Wu spent most of his time in Shanglin Garden. ?

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was fond of literature and liked poetry and poems. Famous literati such as Dongfang Shuo and King Wuqiu Shou often accompanied him, reciting poems and poems, and they were very happy. ?

One day, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty read Sima Xiangru's "Zixu Fu". He was attracted by the beautiful diction and majestic momentum of the poem and couldn't help but applaud. He read "Zixu Fu" in one breath, thinking that the author was from the previous dynasty, and sighed repeatedly: "The person who wrote this Fu is really a talented man, but it is a pity that I did not live in the same era as this person!"?

At this time, Yang Deyi, the dog supervisor who served Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty (the person who managed the hunting dogs for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty), said with a flattering smile: "Your Majesty, Xiaochen knows that the person who wrote this poem is Sima, a fellow countryman of Xiaochen. Xiangru, now living in Chengdu."?

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was surprised and happy, and asked: "Is what you said true?"?

Yang Deyi replied: "Yes, Sima Xiangru once told me that he wrote "Zixu Fu"."?

"Great! No one has told me about such a talented person. " Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said with regret, so he immediately sent someone to summon Sima Xiangru to Beijing. ?

Sima Xiangru, also known as Changqing, was a native of Chengdu, Shu County. He was good at reading, good at playing the piano, free and easy, wrote beautiful articles, and was especially good at writing poems. He and Wang Ji were good friends, and Wang Ji once said to him: "If you are studying abroad, if your official luck is not good and life is difficult, come to Linqiong to find me." One day, Sima Xiangru really came to Wang Ji. ?

The two came to the living room hand in hand. Sima Xiangru talked to Wang Ji about his whereabouts in recent years. Wang Ji knew that Xiangru had not yet married, so he told him that the richest man in Linqiong, Zhuo Wangsun You, The second daughter, Zhuo Wenjun, was born extremely smart and beautiful. Now she is a widow in her natal family. They are a natural pair. After hearing this, Sima Xiangru shook his head in embarrassment. Wang Ji disagreed. He believed that everything depended on man-made efforts. ?

Zhuo Wangsun knew that Sima Xiangru was a famous scholar, so he hosted a banquet for him. He also sent more than a hundred invitations and invited many county officials and famous people. ?

At the beginning of the banquet, Zhuo Wangsun led the guests to toast Sima Xiangru, and inevitably said a lot of flattery. While everyone was drinking happily, Wang Ji introduced to everyone: "Mr. How about playing a song?" After hearing this, everyone cheered in unison. ?

Sima Xiangru declined, and then started to play. First he played a short piece, and then he peeked behind the bamboo curtain and saw a shadowy woman in white clothes listening to the piano. Zhuo Wenjun used his superb piano skills to play the song "Feng Qiu Huang" and expressed his love to Zhuo Wenjun through the sound of the piano. It turned out that Zhuo Wenjun had long wanted to meet this great talent when he heard that Sima Xiangru was a guest. She originally loved music. When she heard the sound of the piano, she secretly hid behind the curtain to watch. Zhuo Wenjun understood the theory of the piano well and heard the meaning of the sound. Of course, the guests at the banquet couldn't understand why, they just clapped and applauded to compliment Sima Xiangru. ?

After Sima Xiangru returned, he bribed Zhuo Wenjun’s servant with money, and sent a courtship letter to Zhuo Wenjun through the servant. Zhuo Wenjun was excited when she received the love letter, but she knew that her father would not agree to the marriage. One night, he secretly ran out and went to Sima Xiangru. The two took a bus overnight back to Sima Xiangru's hometown of Chengdu.

?

Zhuo Wenjun and Sima Xiangru came to Chengdu. At first, they were content with living in poverty. But as time went by, they couldn't bear it anymore, so they persuaded Xiangru to go to Linqiong. Sima Xiangru had no other choice, so they came to Linqiong together. ?

Zhuo Wangsun was very angry about Zhuo Wenjun's elopement and refused to help them. In order to make Zhuo Wangsun look ugly, they opened a couple's hotel. Wenjun sold wine as a waiter, while Xiangru deliberately washed dishes, chopsticks, cups and plates in public, and carried pots and delivered wine, just like a bartender. ?

Sure enough, Zhuo Wangsun thought that Zhuo Wenjun and Sima Xiangru were too embarrassed to do this, and they were so embarrassed that they did not even dare to leave the door. Later, under the persuasion of relatives, friends and the county magistrate, he gave Sima Xiangru and others a sum of money. Sima Xiang returned to Chengdu like Zhuo Wenjun and began to live a prosperous life. ?

Sima Xiangru was summoned to the court. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty met him and asked him: "Did you write "Zixu Fu"?"?

Sima Xiangru He replied very arrogantly: "Yes, Your Majesty, "Zixu Fu" was written by me. However, it is about the affairs of the princes, and there is nothing special about it. If I am going to accompany your Majesty on hunting, I can write about the emperor's travels. "Hunting Fu is dedicated to His Majesty"?

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was very happy after hearing this. He arranged a luxurious residence for Sima Xiangru and gave him generous treatment. The next day, he took Sima Xiangru and others on a hunting trip to Shanglin. Within a few days, Sima Xiangru wrote a piece of "Shanglin Fu" and presented it to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty read "Shanglin Fu" and felt very satisfied and happy, so he made Sima Xiangru a Langguan (an attendant of the emperor). ?

Later, Sima Xiangru, as the special envoy of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, persuaded Yelang to submit to the Han Dynasty, which was highly appreciated by Emperor Wu. When the leaders of various ethnic groups in the Qiong, Nian, Ran, and Shou areas saw that Yelang had submitted to the Han Dynasty, they also expressed their willingness to submit to the Han Dynasty. So Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty appointed Sima Xiangru as Zhonglang General, holding the emperor's Zhanjie, to appease the tribes in these areas. Sima Xiangru successfully completed his mission. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was very satisfied and rewarded him heavily. Soon, someone wrote to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, saying that Sima Xiangru had accepted a lot of money bribes when he was on a mission. Emperor Wu believed it to be true and dismissed Sima Xiangru from his official position. ?

Sima Xiangru’s family was rich and he enjoyed leisurely life, so he moved his family to Maoling and lived a leisurely and comfortable life with Zhuo Wenjun.
