As mentioned above, Han Yu served as a doctor of the four gates, in addition to reviving Confucianism, he should lead by example and take the lead in action.
After all, the Confucian concept is "self-cultivation, family harmony, governing the country, and leveling the world".
Two years later, Han Yu was promoted to supervise the imperial history, and became colleagues in the department along with Liu Yuxi and Liu Zongyuan.
So the thirty-six-year-old Han Yu felt that time was running out, and as soon as he took office, he made a big move, and he showed the most powerful Jingzhao Yin Li Shi, who was a relative of the emperor!
At that time, there was a severe drought in Guanzhong, the people were displaced, and there was a famine around the capital. Li Shi expropriated violently, and also reported to the imperial court that Guanzhong had a bumper grain harvest and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.
Faced with the situation that the court dared to be angry and dare not speak, Han Yu truthfully submitted a ** fold, but the result was that not only did not attract the attention of the emperor, but he was demoted to Lianzhou, Guangdong.
Han Yu, who was hammered hard by reality, if he retreated because of this, then he would not be Han Yu, which would only make him more and more frustrated.
For example, when he was fifty-two years old, Emperor Xianzong at that time had an unprecedented expansion of his mentality because he realized "Yuan and Zhongxing". If you want to live forever, for thousands of generations! It is planned to welcome the bones of Shakyamuni Buddha in Famen Temple to the palace for worship, so as to ask the Buddha to appear and a miracle to come. The people of the country have also begun to pursue the afterlife, regardless of this life.
This kind of thing can not be tolerated, this is completely contrary to Confucianism, how to develop the economy, enhance national strength, and reproduce the style of the prosperous era? So the ancient strange text "On the Table of Buddha's Bones" was born.
Begging to use this bone to pay for it, throw it into fire and water, never be fundamental, cut off the doubts of the world, and stop the confusion of future generations.The content is very long, probably that the Buddha's bones are useless, and they also bring disaster to the country and the people, not only can not live forever, but will accelerate death, because it is written too sharply and mercilessly!So that the people of the world know what the great sage has done, out of the ordinary. Isn't it magnificent! Wouldn't it be a pleasure!
If the Buddha has a spirit, he can do evil, and if there is a disaster, it is advisable to add the minister's body, and the heavens will learn from it, and the minister will not regret ......
Tang Xianzong's lungs were about to explode, you are a Han mouth cannon, I have to kill you, and in the end, under the obstruction of important ministers of the imperial court, Han Yu was demoted to Chaozhou, Guangdong.
On the way to Guangdong, a majestic and famous Seven Laws "Left Migration to Languan to Show Nephew Sun Xiang" was born.
In the heavy snow and cold weather, I wrote to my nephew who came to see him off:
A dynasty plays nine heavens, and the sunset drops Chaozhou Road eight thousand.The whole poem integrates narrative, scene writing, and lyricism, and the gesture is vertical and horizontal, and the realm is majestic.If you want to eliminate the evils for Shengming, you are willing to decay and cherish your old age!
Where is Yunheng Qinling's home? The snow hugs the blue pass, and the horse does not move forward.
Knowing that you should be intentional when you come from afar, so as to collect my bones and miasma riverside.
first confessed that he was convicted for his words and was demoted thousands of miles away;
Then borrow the scenery to be lyrical, and the scenery is broad and sad.
Where is the house of Yunheng Qinling, and the snow hugs Languan and does not move forward.These two sentences have also become famous sentences through the ages;
Finally, he expresses his deep affection and sorrow.
There is also a poem with delicate brushstrokes that depicts a vibrant picture of early spring:
In early spring, the water department was outside the eighteenth member.The whole poem is plain but not simple, especially the sentence "The grass is close but there is nothing" is wonderful. The meticulous and precise observation of the characteristics of the early spring season is amazing.The light rain in the sky street is as moist as a crisp, and the grass color is close but there is none.
It is the most beneficial spring of the year, and it is absolutely better than the smoke and willows in the imperial capital.
Han Yu, who wrote this poem, is standing at the peak of his personal career, and he is already a generation of scholars in literature, and he has also made great achievements in reviving Confucianism.
Therefore, although the age is near, it is not sad because of the flow of time, but feels the joy of spring with great interest.
The following year, the fifty-seven-year-old Han Yu passed away in Chang'an, and his glorious life came to an end.
There is a way to be "Han Liu's article Li Dushi".
In the political arena, he is indomitable, he is full of firepower for the ideals of life, and his literary creation is also blooming everywhere.
Born in a lonely and cold background, he did not fall into the ambition of the clouds, suffered many hardships, became more and more courageous, and dared to be the first extraordinary courage.
He is not only a great writer who carries forward the past and forges ahead into the future in the literary circle of the Tang Dynasty, but also the first person in the history of prose from Sima to Lu Xun for 2,000 years! The ancient literature movement advocated by it, twisting the delicate essence of the six dynasties and opening up a new style of a hundred generations, is magnificent and far-reaching.
Among the poets of the Tang Dynasty, there was only one all-round character who combined the four identities of writer, politician, thinker, and educator, and each of them reached a considerable height.
A corporal of courtesy and virtue all his life, bringing talents and establishing education;
Always hold the banner of morality, fight for yourself, for the people, and for the country, singing all the way, fearless!
Finally, borrowing Su Shi's words, I pay tribute to his loyalty and bravery:
The decline of the eight generations of Wen, and the drowning of the world;
Loyal to the wrath of the master, and brave to win the commander of the three armies!
On the way home is the New Year
