He was born in Xiangyang, Xiangzhou (now Xiangyang, Hubei) and was known as "Meng Xiangyang" in the world. Awesome, not very virtuous, likes to help people in trouble and works in poetry. At the age of forty, when I visited the capital, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty recited his poems, reaching the language of "I was exiled by a wise ruler because of my mistake". Xuanzong said, "Since you didn't get a job and I never abandoned you, why did you falsely accuse me?" After his release, he lived in seclusion in Lumen Mountain and wrote more than 200 poems. Because he has never been an official, he is also called Monsanto. Meng Haoran and Wang Weihe, another landscape and pastoral poet, are also called "Wang Meng"
