Hello, I'm me. You must have heard what Luo Yin said.

Who was the person with the worst official career and the worst imperial examination in the Tang Dynasty? Some people will say Li Bai, but Li Bai has never participated in the imperial examination after all. Who is this man?

He is Luo Yin, a poet in the late Tang Dynasty.

Luo Yin, a poet, was born in the late Tang Dynasty and witnessed the demise of the Tang Dynasty.

Who is Luo Yin in our mind? Maybe many people don't know, much like the current 18-line star.

But Luo Yin was famous at that time. Worse than the big V in Weibo now. Although there was no internet and social app at that time, everyone knew him and settled down in the grassroots cafe in the late Tang Dynasty.

In fact, Luo Yin is not far away from us. His poems are actually very famous, such as this one:

Divert one's melancholy

Luo yin

A person has a chance to sing, otherwise, it is stopped, and sadness and hatred are completely ignored.

Drink today, when you can ―― enjoy it.

Tomorrow will worry about tomorrow.

"In this poem"

Drink today, when you can ―― enjoy it.

"You must have heard of it.

Zhou Xia Hu Changshi

Luo yin

A hundred-foot-tall building stands tall, and a broadsword halberd a vassal of Han Dynasty. Zheng Hong has crossed the border,

This war horse idles around in autumn. National plans have been encouraged,

Family fortune is not for future generations.

.

I still heard that there are many things about Dragon Tree, and I am deeply glad that the general is not old.

"In this poem"

Family fortune is not for future generations.

"You must have heard of it. Look, it's all written by Luo Yin. Don't worry, there's another one you must have heard:

bee

Tang Dynasty: Luo Yin

No matter underground or on the mountain, where there are flowers in full bloom, there are bees busy.

After the flowers are collected into honey, whoever works hard for them will be sweet.

?

In that case, why is Luo Yin miserable? Shouldn't such a famous person be beautiful? Now, all you have to do is endorse an advertisement, hold Bai Fumei in your hand and step on a Ferrari, and you can earn millions a month. But after all, it was the Tang Dynasty, when there was no good job of advertising endorsement. And at that time, as a scholar, the biggest goal was to be an official in the imperial examination!

Then there is another reason for his misery: although he was brilliant and his ink was not dry, he failed the exam. It is said that he failed in the imperial examination seven times at first, and then he continued to fail in the examination for more than ten times in a row.

. What a pity! Tell me! The imperial examination at that time was equivalent to the current college entrance examination. It is common to repeat the college entrance examination, but it has hardly been repeated for more than ten years, right? What a strong psychological endurance this must have! But Luo Yin did it, and Kao Shen didn't care for him, so he was so lucky. So he has never won an award in his life. Do you feel miserable? Is it shameful to say it?

This person should be famous in two aspects, one is particularly outstanding, such as the current champion of arts and sciences and the youngest doctoral tutor. Some of them are particularly poor. For example, Luo Yin, who we are talking about today, is simply an exam terminator!

There is a story about Luo Yin's "Top Ten". In other words, Luo Yin is actually very talented. He was a famous scholar since he was a child, but he didn't get in. Once he went to take part in the imperial examination and passed by a place in Jiangxi, which was called "Zhong Ling County" at that time. In this place, he met Yun Ying, a famous local singer (social butterfly).

Two people may have some ambiguous stories, and they remember each other. Maybe at that time, Luo Yin was a romantic teenager, boasting how powerful he was in front of Yunying, and the imperial examination was sure to succeed. But after more than ten years, Yunying didn't wait for the teenager to ride a horse and came to pick her up with an official hat.

Finally once, it's been more than ten years. Luo Yin passed by Zhong Ling County again and met Yunying. When they saw it, they were full of emotion. But Luo Yin standing in front of Yunying is not a dignitary, but a poor scholar. No, a poor old scholar! Of course, Yunying was still a geisha at this time, so Yunying said to Luo Yin, Alas, after all these years, Luo Yin is still a poor scholar. What did you say about promoting to a higher position? Luo Yin was unhappy when he said this. He failed in the imperial examination for more than ten times, which was depressing enough. Are you still laughing at me? See I don't kill you, so Luo Yin wrote a poem on the spot:

Transporting babies to prostitutes

Luo yin

Lin Lin drunk a little more than ten spring, and saw the cloud palm again.

When I am not famous, you are not married, or are we inferior to others?

In other words, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years. Are you still a geisha at this party? Nobody wants to marry you yet? I haven't been an official for ten years. Aren't you married? It seems that we are not doing very well!

Being educated is terrible, and people are unambiguous. Estimation is Luo Yin after reading this poem, YunYing angrily walked away.

Although Luo Yin's road to the imperial examination was terrible, his talent was still very high. At that time, all the powerful people knew him and were afraid of him. Why?

In fact, this is the reason why Luo Yin failed in the imperial examination!

The answer is that Luo Yin's mouth is too strong! It's ironic

You can see it from the singer Yun Ying mentioned just now. In fact, every time the imperial examination, it is not that his writing level of articles and poems is not good, but that his writing level is too high! How ironic! Other candidates are praising how prosperous the Tang Dynasty was, how happy the people were, how great and wise the emperor was, and how dedicated the officials were ... And Luo Yin, who picked on the faults of the imperial court, did his best to dig at the shortcomings of the Tang Dynasty at that time. It is estimated that the examiner saw his paper as hot as a bomb, who would dare to let him win!

Luo Yin, who failed in the imperial examination every time, did not learn a lesson and got rid of his satire, but formed it.

"vicious circle": (Luo yin) if you don't let me win the bid, I will write poems and articles to satirize you. I won't let you win the bid if you satirize me.

Luo Yin's satirical novels and satirical essays were very famous and were extremely hated by the ruling class at that time. If it had been in the Qing dynasty, it would have been beheaded. He has a high literary attainments and a good reputation, and likes to satirize this and that. Whoever is in power is not afraid of him.

Don't be infatuated with me, I'm just a legend. There are many legends about Luo Yin among the people.

The most famous is Luo Yin's The Sage's Mouth.

. Legend has it that Luo Yin's mouth is more clever than the octopus now, and he is a prophet. Everything he says will come true, so everyone wants to say good things about him, but they are afraid of provoking him to say unlucky things. Hey, if this is put now, it is simply lying down to make money!

For example, once a villager wanted to eat pork, Luo Yin took a shit on the way where grandpa passed in the county. When the county grandfather saw it, he asked someone to beat him. As a result, he said, what are you arguing about? Eat shit before you go! As a result, when several chief officers went to arrest him, one stumbled and choked on his face. At this time, the county grandfather discovered that it was Luo Yin, apologized immediately, and sent three pigs. Legend has it that the Jade Emperor is afraid of his "sage's mouth", which shows how hard-core Luo Yin is!

There are many stories about Luo Yin. The reason why people can spread so many legends of Luo Yin and even deify Luo Yin is precisely because Luo Yin's poems and articles have been written into the hearts of ordinary people and recognized by future generations.

As a talented poet, it takes great courage for him to stand up and satirize the social reality at that time, which is also a valuable aspect. He can export poems, which are easy to read, interesting, ironic and unique.

Even after more than a dozen times, he still doesn't change his mind, and he won't change his mind to write poems and articles for his career. This is why he is most respected by future generations.

He was brilliant all his life, and history will finally give you justice: after a thousand years, those dignitaries have turned into dust, leaving no trace, and Luo Yin's poems and wonderful stories are still talked about by us!
