What is Tang Bohu, the true romantic genius in history?
How bumpy the fate of teenagers is.
Many TV dramas say that Tang Yin grew up in a wealthy family and is a typical Gao Fushuai, which should be regarded as half-truth. Indeed, Tang Bohu was born in a relatively wealthy family in Suzhou. He has eaten well since childhood and received a good education. Besides, Tang Bohu's talent made him famous at an early age. As a teenager, he met Zhu Yunming, Wen Zhiming, Zhang Ling and others. They made friends and talked about poetry and papers together, which can be said to be a carefree and happy life.
However, a happy life is always short, and life is full of changes and setbacks everywhere. At the age of 24, Tang Bohu's father died, and Tang suddenly lost his pillar, which was a great blow to Tang Bohu. However, it rained all night, and sometimes bad luck always followed, as if God intended to test mortals. In less than two years after Tang Fu's death, Tang Bohu's mother, wife, son and sister died one after another, leaving Tang Bohu alone in this world. It is conceivable that this will be a great blow to Tang Bohu. All the closest people, from parents to wives and children, left him in succession within two years. Tang Bohu, who is in her twenties, has suffered the greatest pain in the world.
After all, Tang Bohu is just a scholar, and he is not good at dealing with family affairs. Therefore, after the death of his parents, wife and children, the Tang family gradually declined, and the present life became more and more difficult. He once lost hope in life and was unhappy all day. He even gave up his studies, and he doesn't intend to study any more, and he doesn't intend to participate in scientific research. His good friend Zhu Yunming saw him like this and persuaded him day by day. Finally, Tang Bohu regained his confidence in life and began to study hard and prepare for the science exam.
Tang Yin's "Prostitutes in Shu Meng Palace"
There were many setbacks in the prime of life.
At the age of 27, Tang Bohu took the entrance examination. Originally, with his talent, he would not only be admitted, but also be among the best. But it was an accident, which almost made him lose his reputation in Sun Shan. During the exam, Tang Bohu and his good friend Zhang Ling went to a brothel and drank all night. In fact, it was a normal behavior at that time, but Tang Bohu happened to meet an examiner who hated it. After learning that Tang Bohu was drinking with prostitutes, the local chronicles were very dissatisfied, so they refused to recognize Tang Bohu. But at this time, Tang Bohu is lucky. He met a noble man. At that time, Cao Feng, the Suzhou magistrate, attached great importance to Tang Bohu's talent, so he personally pleaded with local chronicles, hoping to give Tang Bohu a chance. Local chronicles finally agreed to Cao Feng's request, and Tang Bohu was admitted with the last place. It was a fluke that Tang Bohu was able to take the next exam.
In the second year, Tang Bohu took the imperial examination in Yingtianfu, and finally won the first place with his outstanding talent, which is why the world later called Tang Bohu "Tang Jieyuan". Tang Bohu was naturally very happy after winning Xie Yuan. After graduating from college, Meng Jiao's "Horseshoe Disease in the Spring Breeze, See Chang 'an Flower in a Day" made him very excited. To this end, after Fu, he wrote poems such as Xie Zhusi to express his excitement about gold powder.
But fate always played tricks on people, especially Tang Bohu, and then hit him hard, thus completely hitting Tang Bohu to the bottom. After Tang Bohu won, he went to Beijing with confidence to take the next year's exam. On the way, he met Xu Jing, a rich man in Jiangyin and the great-grandfather of the famous Xu Xiake. Xu Jing secretly bribed the examiner's children and got the test questions in advance, so the test papers were well answered. At that time, the examiner's exam was very obscure, and many people didn't answer well. Only Tang Bohu and Xu Jing performed well in the two papers. Cheng has long known the talent and said happily, "This must be Tang Yin's paper." . As a result, in a word, he was caught. Someone reported to the emperor that the exam was fake. Tang Bohu and Xu Jing bribed the examiner in advance and got the exam questions. Qin Shihuang was furious and put, and Cheng in prison. Under torture, he admitted that he bribed the children in the city to get the examination questions. So the emperor dismissed Cheng from office and cancelled his official position, but because he didn't know it, he was demoted to a small official in Zhejiang. Tang Bohu was very angry, refused the appointment of Zhejiang beadle, returned home, and vowed never to be an official again in my life. This is the very famous "case of leaking questions during the meeting".
There are different opinions about "this case must be tried and leaked", but it is true that Tang Yin is implicated. This is the biggest turning point in Tang Bohu's life. From then on, he became more disappointed with life and spent the rest of his life between poetry and painting.
