First, this sentence comes from the biography of Wang Ji, a book of the New Tang Dynasty.
Second, the introduction of characters
Wang Ji, born in the late Sui and early Tang Dynasties, is the founder of five-character poems. He wrote many five-character poems and five-character poems, which occupied a place in the history of China literature. He is famous for his good capacity for drinking, claiming that he can drink five fights a day without causing chaos, so he took the nickname "Mr. Five Fighting".
Ji Wang not only learned to be rich, but also learned to be tall and drink. As long as someone buys him a drink, whether he is rich or poor, whether he is expensive or cheap, he will always accompany him and enjoy it.
He has been a petty official all his life. Every time he looks for a job or resigns, it is not for fame, not for money, but for wine. .
When Emperor Wendi was in Sui Dynasty, he won a jury. He could have been an official in Beijing, but he felt that there were too many rules, and he didn't drink casually. He asked to go to a place on the pretext of illness, so he was awarded Liuhe County, Yangzhou. When I was in position, my hand was always on the cup and wine. I was drunk all day and made many mistakes, so I was repeatedly accused of dereliction of duty. Instead of self-criticism, he was so angry that he piled the money he got from Xiancheng outside the county gate and fled in a canoe under the night.
Tang Xing died in Sui Dynasty and went out to work again. As an old man in the Sui Dynasty, I found a job as a servant in the province, and I am very happy every day. His brother didn't understand, so Wang Ji said, although I didn't earn two dollars, I was lonely and bored, and I sent three liters of good wine every day, which is what I want. Chen, an old friend of Wang Ji, specializes in official salaries in the personnel department. He said, "How can three liters of wine keep a talented person?" Decided to give him a good drink every day, so Ji Wang got the nickname "Bachelor of Wine Fighting", which is not only well known, but also famous in history.
In this way, when he gave Tang Taizong a barrel of official wine every day, he couldn't keep a barrel of wine, and he didn't want the "iron wine bowl", so he had to resign and quit. It turned out that at that time, Shijiao's brewing technology was good, ranking first in the world. He begged and insisted on cooperating with Brother Jiao. In fact, "everyone knows his heart", and he smelled the wine of Jiao's family. At first, Jiao Ge said that there was no corresponding position and there was no way to arrange it.
Later, I couldn't stand the obsession with death, so I set up an assistant for him. Actually, he's a freelancer. Just take care of his wine. I don't want Brother Jiao to die in a few months. Mrs Jiao Yuan sincerely read Ji Wang, and sent people to deliver wine every day without interruption.
A year later, Mrs. Jiao Ge died with her husband. Ji Wang sighed to the sky with an empty jar: "This is because God won't let me drink enough wine!" I quit my assistant, hung up my hat and returned to my hometown, leaving my leaves behind and starting a hermit life.
