He has literary talent and military strategy, respects sages and loves guests, and likes articles and rhetoric.
The famous ministers at that time, from Wang Dao and Yu Liang to Wenqiao, Huan Yi and Ruan Fang, all received close attention.
Once argued with ministers about the truth of saints, the opinions of Wang Dao and others could not make Si Mashao yield.
He is also good at learning martial arts and comforting soldiers. There were many talents in Jiangdong at that time, and they all returned to Si Mashao.
Xie Kun met Jin Mingdi, then a prince. They were very close and attached great importance to each other.
Jin Mingdi asked, "People compare you with Yuliang. What do you think? "
Xie Kun replied: "I am not as good as Yu Liang to rectify the court with courtesy and set an example for officials;" One mountain and one ditch, I think I am better. "
Hill refers to hill, and gully refers to gully. A hill and a ravine are extended into a landscape of love.
This is the origin of the idiom "one mountain and one valley".
Wei Jie died in Yongjia for six years, and Xie Kun was very excited to mourn him in Wuchang. When someone asked him why, Xie Kun said, "How can the country not be sad when it has lost its pillars?"
It can be seen that although Xie Kun was addicted to alcohol and advocated metaphysics, he did not forget state affairs.
Han Shu and Zhuan Xu also have the origin of this idiom, which means the place where hermits live and express their feelings for mountains and rivers:
A man with a clear heart by Don Wang Bo;
You's poem "Sam":
May 4th Movement, one of Ji Hai Miscellaneous Poems by Gong Zizhen in Qing Dynasty;
Xin Qiji, Partridge Sky (returning from Goose Lake, getting sick):
A hill and a valley are also romantic.
The main idea of Xin Qiji's poem is: even if it is just a hill or a ravine, it is full of endless feelings, which makes people feel carefree and fascinated.
Romance: Represents endless interest.
As long as anyone is carefree, elegant in manners, delicate in mind and knows how to appreciate the artistic conception of beauty, then any mountain, any hill, any stream and any valley is full of hidden interests and lovely everywhere.
This is the same as the artistic conception of "one sand, one world, one day" that modern people say.
1September, 964 10, Xie Kun's epitaph was unearthed in the remnant tomb of Waiqi Jiashan in Nanjing Zhonghua Gate. Its text is as follows:
Xie Kun was a famous person in the early years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
"Book of Jin" Volume 49 "Xie Kun Biography" Cloud:
Is a young man, and Chen Ye is a summer man.
Kun is little known, simple and knowledgeable, and does not cultivate dignity. So old and relaxed, he can sing and be good at playing drums.
Avoid the land of Zhang Yu, and seal the salt pavilion for Du Taogong. At that time, when General Wang Dun wanted to betray the imperial court, he gently protested.
Later, Xie Kun went to Zhang Yu County as a magistrate. History calls it "a clean government and people love it." Find an official, he is 43 years old.
Posthumous title Taichang, posthumous title Kang.
He is one of Yan Wang's four friends.
"Cheng Chuan" "Wang Dun, Yu□ and Ruan Xiu all made friends with Yan and called them four friends."
He is Xie Shang's father.
In Shi Shuo Ming Pu and Chen Xia Pu, he ranked second, but his younger brother knew nothing about it. The narrative about Xie Taizu is as follows: "Taizu, Hengzi, a young Confucian. TaiChangQing, officials and ministers. "
According to the records in stone carvings, Xie Kun was a native of the early Western Jin Dynasty. He experienced Yongjia's southern crossing and belonged to the so-called "famous man crossing the river".
It was only seven years since the first year of Taining, and it goes without saying that celebrities at that time wanted to restore the Central Plains. The famous story of "Crying in the New Pavilion" is worth quoting here:
This clearly expresses the mood of "celebrities crossing the river". Xie Kun's epitaph also expresses the same mentality.
The so-called "Shizigang Fake Burial in Jiankang County" and the so-called "Angelababy Old Tomb" still remember "the recovery of China".
When Lu You died in the Southern Song Dynasty, a poem said: "Julian Waghann set the Central Plains in the North, but don't forget to tell him about family sacrifices." The same regret, despite Xie Kun's broad-mindedness, may still haunt me as I lay dying.
It was temporarily buried in the south and later buried in the "old tomb". Although this hope has failed, the epitaph has been rediscovered today, which is unexpected luck in Xie Kun.
