Among the seven sages of bamboo forest, everyone is unique. They represented the literary achievements at that time, and also represented an attitude of dissatisfaction with the situation in North Korea at that time. Many people know Ji Kang, but some people are powerful people who have a strange evaluation of Ruan Ji, which is called "Ruan Ji is rampant". In our opinion, madness is not a good word, but many words have different meanings from ancient times to the present. So what does it mean to be crazy here? Why is Ruan Ji "crazy"?
"Ruan Ji is crazy, how can he cry in the end?" This is Ruan Ji written by the great genius Wang Bo, and it is also Ruan Ji in the eyes of the world. A madman who doesn't obey etiquette; A heavy drinker; A strange man is crying at the end of the road, which is Ruan Ji's Facebook image left to the world. But can the world's comments represent Ruan Ji's image? Of course not. Just like that, when he is mentioned, the world will always think of allusions such as "I don't think about it" and "I can't afford to help Dou", and he has been in office for the longest time among the three monarchs. Who will understand? If Liu Chan was so incompetent, wouldn't Liu Huangshu, who had only one son, choose him as the prince? Obviously, Liu Chan is far from being as incompetent as we thought. This also tells us that our views on historical figures must be analyzed in combination with historical materials.
Ruan Ji, the word heir, also came from the Wei family, and his father was Ruan Yu, one of the "seven sons of Jian 'an". From such a background, Ruan Ji's talent is self-evident. Ji Kang, Dan Tao and others are also called "Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest", and they are all representatives of "Zhengshi Literature". It stands to reason that Ruan Ji is so talented that he should have a bright future, but why did he only leave the word "rampant" in historical materials? The main reason is that he was born at the wrong time. If you live in the era when Cao Cao was in power, Ruan Ji, as a scholar, should go down in history. Why do you say that? Because Cao Cao himself is a literati, he also attaches importance to literati, and it is precisely because of this that the rise of "Jian 'an Literature" appeared. The leading figure of "Jian 'an Literature" is none other than Cao Shi and his son. In addition, Cao Cao advocated meritocracy, unlike Cao Pi's so-called "Nine-grade official law" (that is, the nine-grade official system) in order to win the support of the cremation, which finally enabled the cremation to grasp the power, resulting in the phenomenon of "endless top-grade scholars, no inferior gentry" for hundreds of years. Of course, the employment system of the "nine-level official law" is actually harmless to Ruan Ji. After all, people are also gentry.
Unfortunately, this system finally made the scholar-bureaucrat Sima Shi master in power, which indirectly led to the tragic Ruan Ji falling into the storm of regime alternation and being born at an inopportune time. In order to get more talents, Sima Jia focused on the prestigious "Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest" and wanted to invite them out of the mountain many times. But Sima's ambition is well known, so not all the "Seven Sages" are willing to work for it. Among them, Ji Kang took a clear-cut stand against Sima's ambition, so he was quickly killed and left a swan song on the execution ground-"Guangling San"; Like snobs like Dan Tao, they drag out an ignoble existence and work hard for Sima. Finally, Ruan Ji. He didn't want to work for Sima's family, and he didn't want to waste his life, so he had to play dumb.
Nevertheless, Ruan Ji heard a bad news, especially the death of his good friend Ji Kang, which made him feel deep pain, but he couldn't help feeling sorry for the rabbit. Politically inclined to Ruan Ji of Cao Wei, watching Sima's cold and bloody suppression of loyal ministers of Cao Wei, how sad his heart should be! Not only for the future of the country, but also because he was born at an untimely time and had no talent but no place to display it. The helplessness of reality and dissatisfaction with political darkness became the last straw to crush the camel-53-year-old Ruan Ji died of grief and indignation, and her depressed life was freed.
Ruan Ji is crazy, but he lives better than anyone else. It is because he is good at hiding his inner thoughts that he can die well in this dark political era. Ruan Ji, who seems crazy, may be crying at the end of the road is the true portrayal of his heart. Shortly after Ruan Ji's death, Sima Shi succeeded Cao Shi. The Jin dynasty was established, but it was not a prosperous time, but a dark age of hundreds of years. During the Jin Dynasty, the Eight Kings Rebellion and Five Rebellions in China made Chinese people feel ashamed. Up to now, many people in China are reluctant to talk about it, and the Jin Dynasty has become the least famous unified dynasty. Ruan Ji and Ji Kang were just mourning birds who died before the arrival of this dark age.
Ruan Ji (2 10-263) was a poet of Wei in the Three Kingdoms period. The word heir. Chen Liuwei (now Kaifeng, Henan) was born. One of the Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest. He used to be an infantry captain and was called Ruan Infantry in the world. Worship the learning of Zhuangzi and Zhuangzi, but take a cautious attitude to avoid disasters politically.
Ruan Ji is the representative of "Voice of Right Beginning", and he has written Eighty-two Poems of My Love, Biography of My Adult, etc. His works are included in Ruan Ji Ji Ji.
Ruan Ji advocated Confucianism in his early years and was determined to use the world. Later, political turmoil occurred in Zen Buddhism in Wei and Jin Dynasties. Because of his disappointment with reality and deep feelings about the impermanence of the world, he took an angry attitude of despising etiquette and religion and turned to the Taoist thought track with the purpose of seclusion. In Ruan Ji's self-reported poem "Poems on Huai River", "Fourteen or five years ago, the ambition was still good." You can see this. On the other hand, Ruan Ji was also influenced by metaphysics prevailing at that time. Ruan Ji was also an important figure in metaphysics in Wei and Jin Dynasties. He once wrote two famous papers, "On Children's Old Age" and "On Dazhuang". However, he did not completely reject Confucianism. For example, in the article "On Music", he fully affirmed the importance of Confucius and the system of rites and music in "changing customs", and thought that "the ceremony should set its image, the music should be flat, the ceremony should be ruled out, the music should be internalized, the ceremony and music should be correct, and the world should be flat".
Ruan Ji advocates that "nature" rejects the famous religion in his social and political view, and wants to build a society called "inaction" and "no monarch" by Taoism. In philosophy, Ruan Ji agrees with Lao Zi and Zhuang Zi's viewpoint of "reaching" and thinks that the fundamental way or method of "reaching" is "harmony with things".
Ruan Ji in Zhengshi period emphasized the unity of heaven and man, while Ruan Ji in Bamboo Forest period was born to reject religion. The change of Ruan Ji's thought is not only manifested in the different understanding of the "relationship" between heaven and man, but also in the different provisions of his own "meaning".
