Huan Wen, the commander of Jingzhou, recruited Che Yin to be the secretariat of Jingzhou, which made him highly valued and promoted him to another secretariat and a long history of the western regions. Che Yin is famous for his erudition. Every time a grand banquet is held, Huan Wen will invite Che Yin to attend. In the early years of Kangning (373-375), Che Yin was promoted to assistant minister of Zhongshu and Hou Guan. Taiyuan Middle School (376-396), awarded Dr. imperial academy. Coincided with the discussion about suburban temples, Che Yin published that "the system of suburban halls is difficult to be detailed, and the content is different. Sounds and appliances are different, too. Since huts can't be standardized, why should they stick to their formal norms and not conform to the general trend of the times? " . Later, he was promoted to a title of generals in ancient times, and he led Linxianghou. He left his post because of illness, and soon became a general to protect the army. The imperial court also listened to his opinions on major decisions. In the first year of Longan (397), Wang Guobao was appointed as an assistant minister, which had a great influence both inside and outside the imperial court. Wang hated Daozi and the national treasure for disturbing the state affairs, so he sent troops to make a conquest. The national treasure panicked, and his cousin General Wang Xu offered a plan: "It is better to kill Che Yin, remove people's expectations, hold the master and the prime minister hostage, and punish the ministers." After Che Yin arrived, Guobao dared not kill him, but asked him for advice. Then, the national treasure wrote to the emperor, excusing himself and waiting for the commutation. In the fourth year of Longan (400), Che Yin was promoted to be the official department minister. Yuan, the noble son of Huiji County, is arrogant and extravagant, so it is suggested to curb him. Unexpectedly, when things were revealed, Yuan Xian forced Che Yin to commit suicide, which made the whole country sad.
Che Yin nirvana in fire published the Book of Jin (Volume 83) Biography of Che Yin: "Che Yin was born in nirvana in fire. Great-grandfather, Wu Huiji is the prefect. Father teaches, princess book. The satrap Wang Hu knows people by their names. When he saw Yin among the children, he called Yin's father and said, "This son should be a great scholar so that he can do a special research." Yin Gong is diligent and knowledgeable. Poor people don't often get oil, but Xia Yue keeps dozens of fireflies in his exercise bag to take care of books day and night. "
The word Wuzi is Yin from Nanping. Great-great-grandfather Che Jun tried to be the magistrate of Huiji, and his father Che Yu served as the princess book. Taishou Wang is good at knowing talents. When he met Che Yin, he said to his father, "This son will be an official in the future and will study with him for further study." Che Yin studied hard, read widely and worked tirelessly. Suffering from poverty and lack of lamp oil, he caught dozens of fireflies in summer, packed them in silk and studied hard day and night.
Later, it was used to describe studying hard in a hard environment. Or to describe the poor who study hard, this language is used more.
Kuang Heng (date of birth and death is unknown), whose real name is Gui Zhi, is from Donghai Cheng (now from Wang Kuang Village, Cangshan County, Linyi City, Shandong Province, also known as Kuantan Village, Wangzhuang Township, Yicheng District, Zaozhuang City, Shandong Province). Confucian scholars in the Western Han Dynasty were famous for their poems. Yuan Di is the Prime Minister.
The Kuang family has been farming for generations, but they are very diligent and eager to learn. Because his family is poor, he has to help others get an education. He was studying the Book of Songs with a doctor. Because of his diligent study, his understanding of this poem is very unique and thorough. Confucian scholars at that time once said that there was no need to say poetry. Kuang said "The Book of Songs", which means that listening to and explaining "The Book of Songs" can make people frown and feel comfortable, showing a profound understanding of the Book of Songs. But Kuang Heng's career didn't go well at first. According to the regulations of the Han Dynasty, once a doctoral disciple has mastered one of the Six Classics, he can obtain an official position through the examination. A-level students can be doctors, B-level students are Prince Scheeren, and C-level students can only make up literary anecdotes. Kuang Heng got nine subjects, only a C, and was compiled as a history of literary death in Taiyuan County. However, Kuang Heng's profound understanding of The Book of Songs was highly valued by the literati at that time, and Yuan Di, as a prince at that time, also had a special liking for The Book of Songs.
After Yuan Di acceded to the throne, he appointed Kuang Heng as a doctor and moved to be a doctor. At this time, there was a solar eclipse, an earthquake and other disasters in the capital Chang 'an. Kuang Heng took the opportunity to write a letter, citing the Book of Songs to explain the truth of upward action and downward action, and advised Yuan Di to "reduce the palace, save gorgeous ornaments, try the system, repair the inside and outside, be loyal and far clever." "Be a gentle person, quit a humble official, show a white man, and show a way of wanting nothing." Kuang Heng's performance of this book was appreciated by Yuan Di, so Kuang Heng moved to Doctor Guanglu and Prince Shaofu.
In the next few years,
Emperor Han and Yuan liked Confucianism very much, especially The Book of Songs. He has personally listened to Kuang Heng's poems for many times, and he greatly appreciates Kuang Heng's intelligence. Therefore, he appointed Kuang Heng as an ancient scholar. In the third year of Zhao Jian (36 BC), Wei Xuancheng, the prime minister, died of illness, and Kuang Heng, acting as prime minister, sealed the post of Hou Le 'an, assisted the emperor and became the prime minister to handle state affairs. Kuang Heng can be regarded as a typical prime minister because of the Ming Dynasty.
During his tenure, Kuang Heng repeatedly expressed his opinions on the policies of the imperial court, expounded the way of governing the country, and often participated in the research and discussion of state affairs. He was quick to answer questions and spoke legally, which won the trust of Yuan Di. Whenever government ministers discuss government affairs, Kuang Heng always quotes the Book of Songs as the basis, and thinks that "the Six Classics are saints, so they unify the heart of heaven and earth, cherish the return of good and evil, distinguish between good and evil, and understand the meaning of human nature, so that those who do not contradict their nature are also." . Therefore, judging from the six meridians, people's hopes for heaven can be reconciled, and plants and insects can be bred. This is by no means easy. "Kuang Heng's proposition was supported by Emperor Cheng, which is inseparable from the social fashion of advocating Confucianism and emphasizing righteousness from Hanzhong Ye. It was actually a means used by the rulers of the Han Dynasty to rule the people.
In the later period of Yuan Di, eunuch Shi Xian was appointed as the secretariat. He formed a clique for personal interests, controlled state affairs, encouraged Yuan Di to increase taxes and exploited the people, but because of the emperor's luck, no one dared to offend him. After the emperor ascended the throne, Kuang Heng impeached Shi Xian, listed his previous crimes and corrected his henchmen. This is the last thing that Kuang Heng tried his best to eradicate the yes-men and serve the Han Dynasty. Soon, Kuang Heng and his colleagues gradually drifted apart. He was impeached, demoted to Shu Ren and returned to his hometown, where he died within a few years.
Yuan Di named it Anle Hou, and the fief of Hou was originally 3 1 10,000 mu. Kuang Heng illegally expanded more than 40,000 mu of land sealed by county maps. When he became emperor, a captain jun and others accused him of "stealing soil" (referring to expanding national borders).
A hole was drilled in the wall to get light from the neighbor's house.

Kuang Heng, his name is Gui Zhi, and Kuang Heng are diligent in their research and have candles, but their neighbors can't catch them. Heng tried to put their light through the wall and read it to them with a book that reflected light. City people can't read their surnames. They have money at home and many books. Therefore, Heng is cooperating with him, not claiming compensation. The master asked Heng strangely, and Heng said, "May the master read all the books." The host sighed, gave books and became a university. Miscellanies of Xijing

In the Western Han Dynasty, there was a farmer's child named Kuang Heng. He wanted to study very much when he was a child, but because his family was poor, he couldn't afford to go to school. Later, he learned to read from a relative before he could read.
Kuang Heng can't afford books, so he has to borrow books to read. At that time, books were so valuable that people who had books refused to lend them to others easily. During the busy farming season, Kuang Heng worked as a short-term worker for wealthy families and asked them to lend him books for free.
A few years later, Kuang Heng grew up and became the main labor force in the family. He works in the fields all day, and only has time to read some books during his lunch break, so it often takes ten days and a half months to finish reading a book. Kuang Heng was in a hurry, thinking: planting crops during the day, no time to read, you can spend more time reading at night. But Kuang Heng's family is too poor to buy oil for lighting. What should we do?
One night, Kuang Heng was lying in bed reciting the books he had read during the day. Behind me, I suddenly saw a light coming through the east wall. He stood up and went to the wall to have a look. Ah! It turned out that the neighbor's light came through the cracks in the wall. So Kuang Heng thought of a way: he picked up a knife and dug several cracks in the wall. In this way, the light coming through is also very big, so he gathered the light coming through and began to read. This is the story of stealing light from the wall.
Kuang Heng studied so hard that he became a learned man.
