Jiang Yan of the Southern Dynasties was born in Kaocheng, Jiyang, Songzhou (now Chengzhuang Town, Minquan County, Shangqiu City, Henan Province). When he was young, he became a famous writer and his poems and articles were highly praised at that time. ?

However, with the growth of age, his articles are not as good as before, and they have also regressed a lot. His poems are plain, and he still can't write a word after a long time.

Occasionally inspiration came and I wrote a poem, but the sentence was dry and the content was too dull to be desirable. Therefore, it is said that Jiang Yan once stopped by boat near the Zen Temple, and dreamed that a man who claimed to be Zhang Jingyang asked him for a piece of silk, so he took out a few feet of silk from his pocket and returned it to him.

Therefore, his articles are not wonderful in the future. It is also said that once Jiang Yan took a nap in Yeting, he dreamed that a man who claimed to be Guo Pu came to him, asked him for a pen, and said to him, "Brother Wen Tong, I have a pen that you have used for a long time, so I should be able to return it to me." .

Hearing this, Jiang Yan conveniently took out a five-color pen from her pocket and returned it to him. It is said that since then, Jiang Yan's literary thoughts have dried up and he can't write any good articles.

Jiang Yan once proudly said to his disciples: I am an ordinary official, and I don't want wealth. As for this, I'm going to stop talking for the rest of my life. In this pampered environment, Jiang Yan never wrote a good article again. Jiang Yan's literary thoughts dried up, and so did Jiang Lang.
