Ouyang Xiu's romantic rumors and nieces spread scandals, and he was still in his glory in his later years
Ouyang Xiu led the wave of poetry and literary reform in the Northern Song Dynasty, was a bright star in the history of Northern Song Dynasty literature, and was one of the eight great masters of the Tang and Song dynasties in Chinese history, and had great achievements in the history of literature.
However, Ouyang Xiu, such a generation of great Confucianism, was dismissed because he was suspected of having an affair with his little nephew, and had an affair with his daughter-in-law in his later years.
Ouyang Xiu and his niece incident.
In Kaifeng Mansion, a woman cried and complained to her uncle, saying that she had an indescribable relationship with her uncle, Ouyang Xiu, when she was a child. At this time, the civil and military officials of the imperial court couldn't stand it, and they wrote to Song Renzong to accuse Ouyang Xiu, saying that this was fornication, it was **, and every charge of fornication was covered on Ouyang Xiu's head.
Ouyang Xiu explained that his nephew was only seven years old at the time, and he was still a child with milk, how could he have an ambiguous attitude, but these ministers did not give up, it turned out that Ouyang Xiu was writing'Obscene poetry', his mind has long been sober, and it is difficult to be a minister of the Northern Song Dynasty.
During the Northern Song Dynasty, **'s private behavior was very important, especially this kind of **' behavior was strictly prohibited, Song Renzong heard about it, he was angry, he was furious, and he didn't listen to Ouyang Xiu's defense, so he was demoted.
Ouyang Xiu couldn't defend himself, so he could only pack his bags, return to the embrace of nature, and began to lie drunk in the countryside, no longer paying attention to the case of the imperial court.
Ouyang Xiu's difficult road.
Ouyang Xiu was boycotted by the joint letter of the public, in fact, there are two main reasons, one is that Ouyang Xiu himself does have a hobby of making friends, he calls friends all day long, and travels in the mountains and rivers, which is very annoying.
He also often flirted with the singer unconsciously, so much so that Qian Bian, who was belated, invited him to the banquet very warmly, so that in the eyes of other **, this matter was in the hands of Ouyang Xiu.
The second and most important point is that Ouyang Xiu offended the stubborn conservatives of the Northern Song court. Ouyang Xiu's personality is wild and uninhibited, carefree, unwilling to hide his head and tail, and express his heart directly.
Ouyang Xiu's poems are joyful and sad, he never hides his joys, sorrows, sorrows, and sorrows, even if he has a toothless relationship with a woman in a strange way, Ouyang Xiu will also write a peerless elegance in his poems, so that the character of not putting people in his eyes has long caused the dissatisfaction of hundreds of officials.
In this year, Fan Zhongyan, the prefect of Kaifeng in the Northern Song Dynasty, asked Song Renzong for instructions and began to implement reforms, which involved too many conservatives, and Song Renzong did not listen to Fan Zhongyan's advice, but belittled him.
Ouyang Xiu couldn't sit still, and always felt that he and Fan Zhongyan were like-minded. Although he is in the traitorous palace, he still has not forgotten his original intention of being an official.
So, Ouyang Xiu, who has always been direct and refreshing, scolded the injustice of the world with "Gao Sijian Book", angrily reprimanded the ** who angered Song Renzong, and Ouyang Xiu was transferred to an official position.
After Ouyang Xiuguan was reinstated, the conservatives had to use Fan Zhongyan to implement a new policy of strong reinforcement, and found that Ouyang Xiu could not be overthrown. At the same time, Ouyang Xiu's indecent love with his nephew suddenly surfaced, leaving Ouyang Xiu with nowhere to fight back.
In the political field, there are some facts about the relationship between Ouyang Xiu and his nephews, after all, we have no way of knowing, but it can be seen that Ouyang Xiu is still not afraid of the arrogant posture of any power.
Ouyang Xiu and his daughter-in-law.
At the moment of the fall of Song Renzong, Song Yingzong Zhao Shu ascended the throne, Ouyang Xiu was no longer sleek in officialdom, what he wanted to say, what he wanted to do, completely ignored the government and politics, and looked at him with wild and uninhibited eyes.
Song Yingzong wanted to posthumously crown his father Zhao Yunwei at this time"Imperial Doctor", Ouyang Xiu strongly supported it, but the civil and military officials of the Northern Song Dynasty began to ** again, thinking that this move was inappropriate, and vowed to oppose the removal of Ouyang Xiu.
Coincidentally, at such a critical moment of struggle, Ouyang Xiu's daughter-in-law hurriedly admitted the relationship between her and Ouyang Xiu, which once again pushed Ouyang Xiu to the cusp.
At this time, Song Yingzong ruled the country without asking for reasons, like Song Renzong, he did not directly dismiss him, but asked all the ministers about Ouyang Xiu's advance and retreat, Ouyang Xiu also escaped, and those ministers who accused Ouyang Xiu were removed and let Song Yingzong deal with it.
He has experienced many court and political turmoil, you live and die, he has no place in Ouyang Xiu's court, he has asked Song Yingzong to leave the court many times, he asked Song Yingzong to divorce him, Song Yingzong did not give up the people, just to protect all Ouyang Xiu's denied wishes.
In his later years, Ouyang Xiu was finally able to embrace nature again, immerse himself in the beautiful scenery, and live a life of contentment and happiness until he was sixty-six years old.
