What are the four great ancient poems?
1. "Hanyao Fu" Author: Lu Mengzheng There are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and misfortunes and fortunes for people.
A centipede with one hundred legs cannot fly as fast as a snake; a rooster with two wings cannot fly as fast as a crow. A horse has a journey of a thousand miles, and it cannot go there without a rider; a man has aspirations to reach the sky, but he cannot go there without luck.
Gai Wen: In life, wealth cannot be eroded, and poverty cannot be changed. The article is unparalleled, Confucius was troubled by Chen Bang; the military strategy is outstanding, Taigong fished in the Wei River.
Yan Yuan was short-lived, but he was not a vicious person; Robber Zhi was old, so he was not a kind person. Emperor Yao was a wise man, but he gave birth to an unfilial son; Gusou was foolish and stubborn, but he gave birth to a filial son.
Zhang Liangyuan was a commoner, and Xiao He was called a county official. Yanzi, who was not five feet tall, was appointed prime minister of Qi; Kongming lived in a thatched hut and was able to serve as a military advisor to Shuhan.
Although the Chu Ba was powerful, he was defeated by the Wu River and committed suicide; although the Han King was weak, he actually had thousands of miles of territory. Li Guang has the power to shoot tigers, and he will never have a title until he is old; Feng Tang has the talent to ride a dragon, which he will never meet in his life.
Before Han Xin met, he did not have three meals a day. When he met, he had a three-foot jade seal hanging on his waist. Once the time expired, he died at the hands of the Yin people. Some are poor first and then rich, some are old and strong but young and old.
He was full of articles, but his white hair failed. A palace concubine in a deep courtyard turns into a prostitute and concubine when she is unlucky; a romantic woman becomes a wife when she comes.
A young and beautiful woman is married to a stupid husband; a handsome man is married to a rough and ugly woman. The dragon has not been seen yet and dives among the fish and turtles; the gentleman loses his time and surrenders to the villain.
Although the clothes are torn, the appearance of etiquette always remains; the face is sad, but every embrace is peaceful. When things go wrong, you should just live in poverty and keep your status; if you are not deceived, you will be proud and proud.
A gentleman who is poor at first will naturally develop bones; a villain who becomes rich at first will not escape from poverty. When the sky is out of season, the sun and moon will have no light; when the earth is out of season, vegetation will not grow; when the water is out of season, the wind and waves will be rough; when people are out of season, luck will not flow.
Blessings and fortunes, destiny has been arranged, who doesn’t want wealth? If a person does not follow the basic eight characters, how can he be a minister? I used to live in Luoyang, where I would seek meals from monks in the morning and sleep in a broken cellar at night. I thought that my clothes could not cover my body, and my thoughts of food could not relieve my hunger. Now he is living in the court, his official position is the highest, and he is one of the three nobles. Although he is bowed below one person, he is ranked above tens of thousands of people. He has a staff to beat hundreds of officials, a sword to cut off stingy people, and thousands of boxes of Luo Jin to think about his clothes. If you think about food, you will have all kinds of delicacies and delicacies. When you go out, you will be a strong man holding a whip. When you enter, you will be a beautiful woman holding a cup. Your superiors will favor you and your inferiors will support you.
It is not my ability to say that I am noble. This is due to time, luck, and fate. Sigh! In life, you can't use your wealth to your fullest, and you can't deceive yourself about your poverty or humbleness. Just let the cycle of heaven and earth happen again and again.
2. Author of "Qian's Materia Medica": Zhang Shuo Qian is sweet, hot and poisonous. It has the ability to maintain beauty, collect water and moisturize, is good at curing hunger, and relieves difficulties and troubles.

People may not do so themselves. wisdom.
Only by refining these seven techniques can you take them for a long time and make people live longer. If you accept it irrationally, it will weaken your will and hurt your spirit, so you must avoid it.
3. Author of "The Book of Commandments": Zhuge Liang A gentleman's journey is to cultivate his moral character through tranquility and cultivate his virtue through frugality. Without indifference, there is no clear ambition; without tranquility, there is no way to reach far.
A husband must be quiet to learn, and only then must he learn. Without learning, there is no way to expand talents; without ambition, there is no way to achieve learning.
If you are arrogant and slow, you will not be able to stimulate your energy, and if you are impetuous, you will not be able to cultivate your nature. The years go by with the times, the thoughts go with the sun, and they become withered and withered. Many people do not take on the world, and they stay in the poor house with sadness.

Four Great Vernacular Classics
1. "Ode to the Cold Kiln" by Lü Mengzheng of the Song Dynasty There are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and misfortunes and fortunes may happen to people day and night.
A centipede with one hundred legs cannot fly as fast as a snake; a rooster with two wings cannot fly as fast as a crow. A horse has a journey of a thousand miles, and it cannot go there without a rider; a man has aspirations to reach the sky, but he cannot go there without luck.

Although the clothes are torn, the appearance of etiquette always remains; the face is sad, but every embrace is peaceful. When things go wrong, you should just live in poverty and keep your status; if you are not deceived, you will be proud and proud.
A gentleman who is poor at first will naturally develop bones; a villain who becomes rich at first will not escape from poverty. When the sky is out of season, the sun and moon will have no light; when the earth is out of season, vegetation will not grow; when the water is out of season, the wind and waves will be rough; when people are out of season, luck will not flow.
Blessings and fortunes, destiny has been arranged, who doesn’t want wealth? If a person does not follow the basic eight characters, how can he be a minister? I used to live in Luoyang, where I would seek meals from monks in the morning and sleep in a broken cellar at night.

Translation: There are unpredictable changes in the sky, and people will also encounter disasters and joys sooner or later. Centipedes have hundreds of legs, but they can't walk as well as snakes.
Although chickens have large wings, they cannot fly like birds. Although a horse can travel thousands of miles, it cannot reach its destination without a human driver.
People have lofty ideals, but they cannot be realized without opportunities. People often say: In life, wealth cannot be immoral, and poverty cannot be changed.
Confucius wrote more articles than anyone else but was besieged by the state of Chen. Jiang Ziya, who had both literary and military skills, also fished in the Weishui River and waited for opportunities.
Although Yan Hui, a student of Confucius, died young, he was by no means a vicious person. Although Robber Zhi lives a long life, he is not a kind person.

Zhang Liang turned out to be just an ordinary citizen, and Xiao He was just a county official. Yanzi was less than five feet tall, but he was named the prime minister of Qi.
Kong Ming lived in a thatched house, but he was able to serve as the military advisor of the Shu Kingdom. Although Xiang Yu was powerful, he was defeated and committed suicide in Wujiang; although Liu Bang was weak, he finally gained state power.
Although the Han general Li Guang was famous for shooting tiger stones, he never received a title in his life. Although Feng Tang had the ability to govern the country and secure the country, he never saw any talent in his life.
When Han Xin was in bad luck, he couldn't even eat. When luck came, he became a general in the palm of his hand. But once his luck failed, he died of a sinister plot. Some people get rich first and then become poor, and some people become rich in old age and decline in youth.
A person who is full of beautiful articles may not be admitted to the imperial examination until old age; a person with little talent and little knowledge may be named on the gold list at a very young age. The emperor's concubines may become concubines and prostitutes during the turmoil, but a romantic prostitute can become a noble lady as time goes by.

Although his clothes are shabby, he always maintains respect and etiquette. His face is sad, but he may have the ambition to help the world. When you have no ambition, you can only settle for poverty and duty, and be open-minded that one day you will be proud and proud.
A gentleman is proud even if he is poor, but a villain who suddenly gets rich cannot escape the poverty in his heart. When the weather is bad, the sun and moon cannot shine; when the land does not have suitable climate conditions, no vegetation will grow.
When water does not get the right environment, it will cause strong winds and huge waves; when people do not get opportunities, good luck will not flow smoothly. Wealth and glory are all planned in life, who doesn't want it? If a person does not live according to the Eight Virtues, how can he become a high-ranking official or prime minister? In the past, when I was in Luoyang, I went to the temple to eat vegetarian food during the day and lived in a cold cave dwelling at night.
The clothes you wear cannot protect you from the cold, and the porridge and rice you eat cannot ward off hunger. The superior people hate me, and the inferior people hate me. They all say that I am despicable because I have no opportunities.
Now I am an official in the dynasty, with the highest official position and the status of the Three Dukes. I am only below the emperor and above tens of millions of people. I have the power to manage hundreds of officials and punish despicable and stingy officials. power. The clothes I wear are made of brocade, the food I eat is delicacies from the mountains and the sea, I am protected by warriors when I go out, and I am served by servants when I come home. The emperor loves me, and all the officials support me. Everyone says that I am noble, but it is not that I really have much ability. This is what I get. The blessing of time and destiny.
Therefore, when people live in the world, they should not enjoy themselves when they are rich and powerful, and they should not give up on themselves when they are poor and humble. Just listen to the cycle of heaven and earth! 2. "Qian Materia Medica" Tang Zhang said: "Qian is sweet in taste, hot and poisonous. It can restore the beauty and moisturize the skin, and is good at curing hunger and cold, and can relieve hardship and adversity.

Thoughts after reading Chapter 10 and Chapter 20 of "A Brief History of Ancient China"
After listening to Teacher Zhang Fan's History of the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, I decided to buy his "A Brief History of Ancient China". I have read Chapters 10-12 in the past two days, and I have gained quite a lot of insights based on what I had heard in Qin Hui's "History of the Qin and Han Dynasties" and Yan Buke's "Ancient Chinese Politics and Culture". Ancient Chinese history underwent historic changes during the Zhou and Qin Dynasties. Qin Hui called it the "Change of Zhou and Qin". According to Zhang's book, there are roughly the following items: In terms of land system, the rural commune public ownership system has been transformed to the state land grant system. That is to say, the well fields were abandoned, the streets were opened, and family farmers began to appear in common. In terms of political sectors, there was a shift from the feudal system to the county system. That is to say, the princes were cut off and counties were established. In terms of national governance, there was a shift from patriarchal system to bureaucracy. That is, the hereditary system of nobility should be abolished and officials should be appointed by the monarch. Therefore Han Feizi said that the officials of the Ming Dynasty, the prime ministers must be from the state department, and the fierce generals must be sent from the soldiers. Previously, it was believed that this move focused on the experience of the grassroots, but it was unknown that its original intention was that humerus ministers were no longer hereditary from the nobles, but focused more on performance. In terms of culture and thought, the feudal patriarchal etiquette system turned to the integration of Confucianism and Legalism, and the overlord and Taoism.
The period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was a turning point. Implement the policy of favor to weaken the princes, appoint cruel officials to attack the powerful, separate states and ministries to strengthen management and control, unify the currency, salt and iron official business, and wine monopoly to enrich the national strength.
Look at the section on literature and art in the late Warring States Period, discussing Qu Yuan’s Li Sao.
Suddenly I remembered that I had seen the Ming Dynasty a few years ago, and I was sailing on the banks of the Xin'an River. I floated on the bank of the Xin'an River and chanted: "Floating on the head of the summer water and heading west, looking back I can't see the gate and wall of my motherland. It's hard for the people of Huaiyi to express the sadness in my heart." Come on, the road is long and I don’t know where to go? Take advantage of the wind and waves to cross the river and the sea, the water is vast and the world is full of sorrow!
A couplet: one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. 10. What is Hengbiao - Baidu
The first couplet: 2345, the second couplet: 6789, Hengbiao: North and South couplets Story: Lu Meng was the prime minister in the early Northern Song Dynasty. He was an official and was a generous man. He is outspoken to his superiors and tolerant to his subordinates. Although he is a very popular minister, who would have thought that in his early years he was a poor scholar who could not even afford to eat? "Han Kiln Ode" begins with the sentence "Heaven has unexpected events, and people have misfortunes and blessings." This poem was later called one of the "Four Great Essays" by the world, which shows Lu Mengzheng's talent and learning. Unparalleled in ancient and modern times.
Judging from his family background, Lu Mengzheng was actually not poor. This can be seen from the fact that his father Lu Guitu had many wives and concubines. It is precisely because of this that This led to his fate of poverty in his early years. Although Lu Mengzheng's mother was the wife, she had a strong temperament, so she was jealous of other concubines. Kicked out of the house and living on the street, it is said that in order to survive, Lu Meng was living in a dilapidated cave dwelling.
In order to have a chance to stutter, he even went to the temple to hide his face. After eating fast, he was unceremoniously told off by the monk and felt ashamed. With this experience, it is no wonder that he was able to write the ancient poem "Han Kiln Ode". There are many deeds in his life, and there are also many anecdotes. There are countless rumors, most of which reflect his talents.
Take our traditional festival "Spring Festival" as an example. Posting couplets during the New Year has been a tradition in our country since ancient times. People who were literate in ancient times. There were not many people, so during festivals, literate people would often be asked to write couplets for them, and those poor scholars who could not take the blame could use this time to make some money to support their families. Although Lu Mengzheng did not record writing for others. But it is said that he wrote a couplet for his family during a Chinese New Year. The first couplet is: two, three, four, five, and the second couplet is: six, seven, eighty-nine. It attracted many people to come and watch, and they all speculated on the meaning of the couplet. < /p>
I believe many people have heard of this couplet. It is a "missing word couplet". There is a "one" missing in the first couplet and a "ten" missing in the second couplet. According to the homophones Look, it means "short of food and clothing". Since it is a couplet, how can it lack horizontal comment? Personally, I think the horizontal comment of this couplet is the finishing touch. Many people regard "lack of food and clothing" as the horizontal comment of this couplet. In fact, This is a big fallacy. The most important thing about a couplet is the deep meaning hidden in it. It was originally a good allegorical couplet, but the "answer" was directly stated in the horizontal batch. Isn't it disappointing? And this horizontal batch only has two words? "Bei Nan" means that not only does he lack food and clothing, but his home is also empty and there is nothing.
The origin of this couplet is also controversial. One theory is that it was written by Lu Mengzheng, and the other is that Zheng Banqiao was out on business and saw it in front of a poor family. food emergency, but which one is the reality has not yet been determined. Couplets are a major feature of Chinese literature. Often the simplest sentences contain very profound meanings, which makes people clap their hands and shout: How wonderful! .

The "Origin" of "The Thousand-Character Classic": It is said that there were several versions of "The Thousand-Character Classic" in history. For example, Zhong Yao of the Han Dynasty and Xiao Zifan of the Southern and Northern Dynasties all had the same works published, but they were later lost.
The "Thousand Character Essay" we see today was written by Zhou Xingsi during the period of Emperor Wu of Liang Dynasty. It is said that Xiao Yan, Emperor Wu of Liang Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties, particularly admired Wang Xizhi's calligraphy. He once asked an attendant named Yin Tieshi to make a thousand inscriptions on Wang Xizhi's original calligraphy, which was praised by the world as "floating like a wandering dragon and as graceful as a startled snake". Different characters are used for observing and learning.
However, due to the lack of organic connection in content, these words were messy and difficult to memorize. So he found his admired minister Zhou Xingsi and entrusted him with the important task of organizing these thousand words into one. This is an easy-to-understand enlightenment reading, and requires that in addition to not using repeated words, it must also use rhyme and pay attention to smoothness. After Zhou Xingsi received the decree, he worked all night. After repeated deliberation, successive calculations, and constant permutations and combinations, he finally completed this immortal work that can be regarded as an eternal masterpiece just before dawn.
Due to all the hard work and overuse of his brain, Zhou Xingsi’s hair turned white overnight. However, his efforts were rewarded: for more than a thousand years, "The Thousand-Character Classic" was respected by the world as a classic of elementary school.
He himself was promoted and rewarded by Emperor Wu of Liang. (Another theory is that Zhou Xingsi violated the criminal law, and Emperor Wu punished him to write an article in a thousand different characters to avoid his guilt) "The Thousand-Character Essay" begins with "Heaven and Earth are Xuanhuang" and ends with "Yanzai Huye" .
