Zhang Dai, word, Shu people. When I was young, I was a playboy. I like lively places, live in beautiful houses, like beautiful maids and beautiful teenagers, like wearing bright and gorgeous clothes, often eating delicious food, riding horses, decorating my home with gorgeous lights, watching fireworks, singing operas, singing, learning about antiques, raising flowers and birds, drinking tea and playing chess. I am fascinated by poetry and reading, and I am very busy.
At the age of 50, the country broke (Ming Dynasty) and lived in seclusion in the mountains to escape the war. There is only a rotten bed, a broken coffee table, a broken bronze tripod, a piano that can't play, some worn-out books and an inkstone with one side missing. Wear linen and eat vegetarian food, often without food. Think about twenty years ago, it was like two worlds.
I often tell myself that I can't solve seven problems: in the past, I used to be a public servant, but now I have been demoted from a noble family to a beggar, which is one of the incomprehensible things; This industry is not as good as middle-class families, but they want to lose all their money. There are many developed shortcuts in the world, and they are willing to live alone in Shan Ye. It is incomprehensible that they are so poor and rich.
I went to the battlefield when I was a student, but when I was a general, I did something like writing articles, which made the civil and military confused and incomprehensible. Even drinking with the jade emperor from the upper level is not humble, and living with beggars from the lower level is not proud, so chaotic and condescending that it is incomprehensible; When you are weak, others can spit in your face and let it do it by itself. When you are strong, you can go to the enemy camp alone. This difference between strength and weakness is incomprehensible.
It is unreasonable for you to live behind others when competing for profits and fame, and to let others lead when watching the game. The sixth is incomprehensible; Gambling and dice, no matter what the result is, when you boil water and taste tea, you can taste whether you use Weihe River or Hezi River. It is incomprehensible to use wisdom and stupidity in the wrong place like this. I can't understand these seven things myself Do you still want others to understand them?
Therefore, it is ok to be called rich or poor; It is ok to be called a wise man or a fool; People who are called upright can be called weak people; It's okay to be called a hardworking person or a lazy person. Learning liberal arts, martial arts, etiquette, writing articles, seeking immortals and buddhas, learning farm work and planting flowers all failed, and letting others call him the black sheep, waste, stubborn person, stupid scholar, sleepy man and old ghost all became a thing of the past.
At first, Zhang Dai was called Zongzi, and people called him Shigong, so he became Shigong. He is the author of Shi Kuishu, Zhang's Genealogy, Yi Lie Zhuan, nirvana in fire, Ming Yi, Yi Yi Yong, Shi Que, Four Books Adventures, Dream Memories, Talking about Bell, Changgu Street,
Ming Wanli was born in Shimao on August 25th (1597). Ding You is the son of Wang Guoxiang Dida, the wife of Lu Fan, and his mother is Tao Yiren. When I was young, I suffered from phlegm for many times and was raised by my grandmother, Mrs. Matthew, for ten years. My great-grandfather Yungu Gong was an official in Guangdong and Guangxi, and he had a large number of Niuhuang pills (up to tens of thousands) owned by collectors. I learned to climb to 16 years old on the ground at first, and I didn't recover until I took this medicine.
When I was six years old, my grandfather Yu Ruogong took me to Hangzhou. I met Mr. Meigong riding a reindeer. When he was traveling in Qiantang, he said to his grandfather, "I heard that your grandson is good at poetry and prose." I should interview him today. " He pointed to the photo of Li Bai riding a whale on the screen and said, "Taibai rides a whale and quarries for jathyapple by the river." I replied, "Mei Gong crosses Lutai, and there is autumn wind in Qiantang County."
Mr. Mei Gong laughed, got up and jumped down, and said, "Where can I find such a smart and handsome man?" (Of course) it is my little friend. " He hoped that I would try to write more articles, but I didn't expect to achieve anything.
After the Chinese New Year (1644), I was carefree, delirious, unable to die, unable to sustain my life, with white hair and still living in the world. I'm afraid that one day I will die suddenly and rot like a plant, because I think the ancients such as Wang Ji, Tao Qian and Xu Wei all wrote their own epitaphs, so I will follow their example and write one.
I just want to start thinking, but I don't think I'm very good at writing and writing, so I pick up and put down my pen again and again. Even so, just talking about my hobbies can be recorded. I once built my own tomb in Jitou Mountain, Wang Xiang. My friend Li Yanzhai wrote on the title of this cave tomb: "Alas, the Amin Dynasty wrote the tomb of Zhang Changgong, a scholar of Tao An."
Luan, a man with noble interests, has a grave near the grave where he is leaving, so I chose the cemetery in Xiangzi. My age is seventy years old, and his date of death and burial is unknown, so I won't record it for the time being. The epitaph reads: "Shi Chong, the richest man in the Jin Dynasty, once competed with Wang Kai, Yang Xian and others for wealth. The unreasonable Bian He dedicated Jing Yu to the King of Chu.
Lian Po, an old man, fought against Qin in Zhuolu. Open a historical bureau under the guise of Sima Qian. Su Dongpo was delicious, Boyi and Shu Qi starved to death in shouyangshan. Dr. Barrish, how could he betray his talent? Learn Tao Qian for nothing and enjoy Mei Fu for nothing. Only by finding a hermit like Zheng Sixiao, a savage from the Three Kingdoms, can I know the feelings I can't reveal.
Original text:
Zhang Dai, a native of Shu, is also known as Tao An. I am not a dude, I love prosperity, I am a good house, I am a beautiful maid, I am a good child molester, I am a good dress, I am a good food, I am a good horse, I am a good lantern, I am a good fireworks, I am a good pear garden, I am a good advocate, I am a good antique, I am a good. 1950 to 1950, the country was ruined and lived in the mountains. The survivors broke their beds, broke their pianos and lost many books, but they lacked inkstones. Clothes and vegetables are often eaten without food. Looking back 20 years ago, it seems like a lifetime ago.
Often self-evaluation, there are seven unsolved: I proposed to Webb to be a public official, and now I want to be a beggar with a family, so I am confused and have no solution; If you can't produce as much as the people in the middle, but want to drive the Golden Valley together, there are many shortcuts in the world, but you can only keep Yuling, so you will be rich and poor. With a scholar training ground, with a general article home, wrong, impossible to solve three problems;
Accompanying the jade emperor is not flattering, and accompanying the beggars in Sadayuan is not arrogant, so it is impossible to solve the four problems. If you are weak, you will throw up in your face and be willing to do it yourself. If you are strong, you can ride alone to the enemy. You are so rich and fierce that you can't solve all five. Competing for profit and fame, watching a game, is willing to make people first, so urgent and absurd, can not solve six; If you play games, you don't know the result. If you drink tea and taste water, you can tell the difference, so you can't solve seven problems. There are seven insoluble, self-contradictory, and I hope someone can answer?
So it can be called rich or poor; Call it a wise man or a fool; Call it the strong or the weak; Call it an anxious person, or a lazy person. You can't learn books, swords, articles, immortals, Buddhism and agricultural gardens, and let the world call you a black sheep, a waste, a stubborn person, a dull scholar, a sleepy person and the old charm of death.
At the beginning of the word Zongzi, people called it Shi Gong, that is, the word Shi Gong. He is good at writing books such as Shi Kuishu, Zhang's Genealogy, Yi Lie Zhuan, nirvana in fire, Ming Yi, Yi Da Yong, Shi Que, Four Books Meet, Memory of Dreams, Changgu Street, etc.
Ding You was born on August 25th in Wanli, Lu's name was Xi Weng, and his mother was Tao. Young people with phlegm disease were raised by Mrs. Matthew, a big mother, for ten years. Great-grandfather Yungu was a public official in Guangdong and Guangxi, while Feng Hao, who was born with Niuhuangwan, was born in Tibet. He's six years old since the fisherman's flute. He ate it up and got sick.
When I was six years old, my eldest father Yu Ruowang and his martial arts master met a tourist Mr. Mei Gong in Qiantang. He said to my eldest father, "I heard that Sun Shan was right, so I want to interview him." He pointed to the photo of Li Bai riding a whale on the screen and said, "Taibai rides a whale and quarries for jathyapple by the river." Yu Ying said: "Mei Gong crosses the deer, and there is autumn wind in Qiantang County." Mei Gong jumped up with laughter and said, "Little friend, what you said is really clever." If you want to enter Yu's business for a thousand years, why don't you want Yu to accomplish nothing?
After Shen Jia, I was in a daze, unable to find death, unable to talk about life, white-haired, and still dependent on this world. I am afraid that once I am exposed to the sun, I will rot with the vegetation, because I think that the ancients, such as Wang reactive, Tao Jingjie and wrote their own epitaph, I will follow suit. Just pregnant, I feel that people and literature are not good, and I have to drop out of school again.
Although the first statement that I am addicted is wrong, it can also be passed on. Ceng Ying was born in Jitou Mountain in Xiangwangli. His friend Li Yanzhai wrote, "Alas, there is an Amin writer named Zhang Changgong." "Luan Gao Shi, buried near, so I took it from the item, I died, and was buried at the age of seventy. I don't know the sun and the moon, so I don't write.
Ming said, "Pity Shi Chong and fight for Jingu.". Bian He, the blind man, presents Jing Yu. Old Lian Po, fight Zhuolu. Pseudo-Longmen, opening a historical bureau. Look for Dongpo when you are hungry and solitary bamboo when you are hungry. Dr. Wu, how could you kill yourself? It's a waste of learning from Tao Qian. You will also find three foreign savages, Xiao Fang, my favorite song.
