Chapter 2 Han Yu Huashan contributed a book

According to legend, in the late Tang Dynasty, Han Yu was demoted and came to Huashan alone to play and relax.Standing on the top of the peak, he could only see the mountains of Huashan, the lush pines, and the infinite spectacle, which was very spectacular.But when going down the mountain, because the mountain road was too dangerous, his body was weak and his legs trembled, so he was trapped on the mountain.In order to reduce his luggage, he threw all the books he brought down the mountain, but he still couldn't move forward half a step.After being trapped for a long time, he couldn't help crying loudly when he thought of his ups and downs.He lamented: "Could it be that I, Han Yu, was buried here?"

But Han Yu was a wise man after all. He took out the pen, ink and inkstone he carried with him, quickly wrote a distress letter and threw it down the mountain.Soon, the Huashan herb pickers reported this letter to the Huayin county magistrate, and the county magistrate immediately sent someone to rescue Han Yu down the mountain. Later, Zhao Wenbei, a centenarian from Shanxi, visited the "Han Tui's Submitting Office", and he couldn't stop laughing when he felt Han Yu's anecdote.Later generations also inscribed "Canglongling Han Tui's crying poet Zhao Wenbei laughed at Han Chu at the age of 100".Later, when Li Bai climbed the mountain in the Qing Dynasty, he showed another mentality when he cried and laughed. .Li Bo neither laughs nor cries, but on the Independence Ridge there is a long roar.”

Han Yu, styled Tuizhi (768-824 A.D.), was originally from Xiuwu, Hanoi (now Nanyang County, Henan).Because he was an official to the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, he was also called the Ministry of Officials of Han.Posthumous title "Wen", also known as Han Wengong. Han Yu's parents died when he was three years old, and he was raised by his elder brother and sister-in-law Zheng.He knew to study hard at the age of seven, and when he was eleven, his elder brother was demoted to Lingnan.He migrated to the south with his elder brother and sister-in-law.At the age of fifteen, his elder brother died while serving as governor of Shaozhou. Han Yu followed his sister-in-law and took his elder brother's coffin with him, traveling thousands of miles to the Central Plains for burial.At the same time, there were troubles in the Central Plains, and the soldiers were in panic, and the whole family moved to Xuanzhou (now Xuancheng, Anhui).With a rough fate, he has gone through hardships and has been living a life of ups and downs.

The desolate and lonely life experience and the ups and downs of life made him study hard and study tirelessly.Finally read through the Six Classics and the studies of various schools of thought. In the eighth year of Emperor Zhenyuan of Tang Dezong (792 A.D.), Han Yu was admitted as a Jinshi at the age of twenty-five.Because of his upright nature, he was not good at making money, so he didn't get the chance to become an official until he was thirty-one years old.When he was a supervisory censor, a staff member Wai Lang, and a member of Zhongshu Sheren, he was demoted three times, all because he was convicted of disagreeing with the court's discussion on Chen Zhengshi, and later moved to the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment.He was also demoted to Chaozhou governor because of admonishment to welcome the Buddha's bone.Soon after, he was recalled to the court, and successively served as the son of the state Jijiu, the minister of the Ministry of war, the minister of the Ministry of officials, and Jing Zhaoyin.Politically more effective.

Han Yu's thoughts originated from Confucianism. He regarded himself as orthodox Confucianism, but he also advocated the use of Confucius and Mohism, and praised the deeds of Guan Zhong and Shang Yang.Later generations spoke highly of Han Yu, respecting him as the head of the eight prose masters in Tang and Song Dynasties.Han Yu's article discusses solemnly and on a grand scale.Du Mu put Hanwen and Du's poems side by side, calling him "Du's poems and Han pens"; Su Shi called him "the decline of the eight generations of literature".The ancient prose movement advocated by Han Liu opened up the development path of ancient prose since Tang Dynasty.Han Shi strives for novelty, grandeur and originality.
