Understand Xie Lingyun

Xie Lingyun (385 ~ 433) was a poet in the Southern Song Dynasty. Chen Xia (now Taikang, Henan). Born in Huiji Huining (now Shangyu, Zhejiang). Because he was fostered in the Du family in Qiantang since childhood, he was named Ke. Because he was the grandson of Xie Xuan, he attacked Gong in the Jin Dynasty, so he was also called Xie. Buried in Wanzai County, Jiangxi Province.

Xie Lingyun's life

At the end of Jin Dynasty, he served as General Langya, the secretariat of Yuzhou, and Taiwei, the Northern Emperor Wu. After entering the Song Dynasty, due to Emperor Wu of Song's policy of restraining gentry, he was demoted to a leisure time and served as a magistrate of Yongjia and a secretariat of Linchuan. In the 10th year of Yuanjia (433), he was killed by Song Wendi (Liu Yilong) for "treason".

Spring grass grows in the pond and garden willows become songbirds.

I remember the university teacher said that this sentence was enough for him to use for a lifetime.

As the originator of landscape poetry

Xie Lingyun is a great poet in the history of China and the first great traveler in history. His poems are full of the spirit of Taoism and nature, filled with a fresh, natural and quiet charm, which changed the obscure style of metaphysical poems since Wei and Jin Dynasties. Li Bai, Du Fu, Wang Wei, Meng Haoran, Wei and Liu Zongyuan all adopted Xie Lingyun's method. However, we know that Xie Lingyun's family was an aristocratic family in the Jin and Song Dynasties. Xie Gong's ancestral home is Yang Xia, Chenjun (now Taikang, Henan), born in Shining, Huiji (now Shangyu, Zhejiang), and fostered in Dujia, Qiantang (now Hangzhou) shortly after his birth. /kloc-returned to Jiankang (now Nanjing) at the age of 0/5, and served as the magistrate of Yongjia and Linchuan literature and history. Mostly in Jiankang, sharping and other places

Xie Lingyun's attack skill.

Before I left, I took a look at Wanzai County Records, which read: "At the end of Chu, there were beautiful scenery and abundant valleys. Hidden terrain, negative mountains and rivers. The mountains and rivers are crystal clear (ao, with the same sound as' ao'), and the atmosphere is heavy ... 10,000, and there is a stone city, where the mountains are steep and the water is clear and lingering, and full of green. The wonders in China must be called mountains and rivers. Although the land is secluded, the peaks are green and the ripples are rippling, which is better than the secluded scenery, and it is enough for celebrities to visit its secluded place. And the gas field is loud, and there are philosophers. " It can be seen that Wanzai is not only a land of abundant crops, but also a place with quiet environment and excellent ecology. During the period of Huang Wu (222 ~ 229), Wanzai started to set up a separate county, then called Yang Le County, which governed luocheng town, now the county seat. In the first year of Taikang in the Western Jin Dynasty (280), the county was renamed Kangle County, which was closely related to the Xie family.

In 382 AD, Fu Jian, the former emperor of Qin Dynasty, unified northern China, and the following year he led more than 900,000 troops south to destroy the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The vanguard of Qin Jun was 250,000 people, led by Fu Jian's younger brother Fu Rong, and soon occupied Shouyang (now Shouxian County, Anhui Province). In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Xie Shi, the brother of Xie An (Xie Xuan's uncle), was the conquering governor, and Xie Xuan (Xie Lingyun's grandfather) was the pioneer governor. The battle of Surabaya defeated the powerful Fu Rongjun and made great achievements. As a result, Xie Xuan has added Xu, Yan, Qing, Ji, You and other counties, and made it (for thousands of years now) public, with 2,000 food cities. Xie Xuansheng has two sons, the eldest son Xie and the youngest son Xie Qiong (or). Xie died at the age of 26, but he gave birth to four sons, namely Xie Gongren, Xie Gongxiao, Xie Gongyi. Xie Gongyi, whose name is Lingyun, is Xie's youngest son. Born in the tenth year of Taiyuan (AD 385). He is beautiful, intelligent and diligent. Xie Xuan regarded it as the apple of his eye and once lamented: "I gave birth to Xie Wanghuan. Although he is stupid, he gave birth to a clever son like Lingyun!" When Xie Lingyun was 4 years old, his grandfather was seriously ill. Before he died, he earnestly urged his family to bring good luck and cultivate talents. In 393 AD, when Xie Lingyun was eight years old, he inherited the public and thanked the world, and still ate 2,000 households.

Xie Lingyun died unjustly in Guangzhou.

When Xie Lingyun 15 years old, he went to Wuyi, the former residence of Kyoto, and was highly valued by his uncle. He praised: the beauty of the article is beyond Jiang Zuo (referring to the south bank of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, that is, the excavation area in the Southern Dynasties). In the first year of the Eastern Jin Emperor Yi (405), Xie Lingyun was 20 years old and joined the army as the master of Langya, and later served as the military attache and assistant minister of Zhongshu. In the first year of Yong Chu, Emperor Wu of Liu Song in the Southern Dynasties (420), after Liu Yu was promoted to Song State, Xie Lingyun's title was reduced to leisure, and the food city was changed to 500, becoming a regular servant of scattered riding and turning to the left-back rate of the prince. In the third year of Yongzheng (422), Xie Lingyun was demoted as the prefect of Yongjia because Liu Song always had doubts about the Xie family. Xie Lingyun is proud of his distinguished family background and brilliant. He once said that there is one stone in the world, and Cao Zhi, a poet in Jian 'an, won by eight fights, while I won by one fight, and the rest were shared by celebrities in ancient and modern times. He is arrogant and thinks that he should be highly valued politically. Unexpectedly, he was excluded by the imperial court and transferred from Beijing to Jiankang (now Nanjing). So in the county, I feel bored, ignore government affairs and blindly indulge in mountains and rivers. Write poems and songs on weekdays to vent your grievances. A year later, he resigned due to illness.

In the third year of Yuanjia (426), in order to consolidate his rule, Emperor Yilong adopted the policy of netting aristocratic families. Because of his great fame, Xie Lingyun was recruited as the secretary supervisor and was ordered to compile the History of Jin Dynasty. But it didn't take long for Xie Lingyun to see that the emperor respected him on the surface, but actually "just received him literally", only let him act as a literary attendant, and there was no political intention to appoint him. However, the people who are really reused in North Korea are people whose fame and talent are far less than his. Soon, Xie Lingyun quit his job and returned to Xining, or chanted with friends, or led hundreds of followers in and out of the ravine to explore the wonders and win.

Xie Lingyun likes to climb mountains and likes to climb quiet and steep peaks. He dared to climb rock peaks as high as tens of feet, which can be said to be the first pioneer of ancient rock climbing. He often wears a Shuang Mu spike shoe when climbing a mountain, and takes off the nail of his front palm when climbing the mountain, and the nail of his back palm when going down the mountain. Therefore, going up and down the mountain is particularly labor-saving and safe, which is the famous "thank you". In the eighth year of Yuanjia, Liu (43 1) made him a civil history of Linchuan, but he still didn't care about politics, and he traveled all day, and was corrected by the local officials as a punishment. Xie Lingyun refused to accept it, but detained the relevant officials. He also wrote a poem: "The ovaries are excited, and Qin Rudi is even ashamed." Originally from Jianghai, he is a loyal and righteous gentleman. "Compare Liu Song to the Qin regime, and compare ourselves to Lv Zhonglian, suggesting that we should avenge national subjugation like them. This kind of behavior and speech aggravated his crime and was sentenced to exile in Guangzhou without the death penalty. However, just arrived in Guangzhou, the official documents of the imperial court arrived again, falsely accusing him of committing new treason and ordering on-the-spot execution. In the 10th year of Yuanjia (433), Xie Lingyun was sentenced to abandon the city in Guangzhou (beheaded in the street) and died at the age of 49. A generation of literary giants, like a meteor, flashed a brief and dazzling light in the historical sky, fleeting.
