We know Tang Bohu, more from Zhou Xingchi's movie "Tang Bohu Points Autumn Fragrance". Inside, Tang Bohu laughed and scolded, was talented and eight buckets, and finally hugged the beauty and even had a good martial art, and we couldn't see the slightest trouble in his body. All we see is the spirited Jiangnan Four Talents.
But in reality? The historical Tang Bohu is not so beautiful, even very pitiful, he has a talent, but can only continue to hit the wall in history, hit the head and bleed, and finally posterity envisioned a perfect ending for him, but I think the pain in Tang Bohu's heart may only be clear to him.
I. The background of the writing of "Peach Blossom An poem"
The Peach Blossom An poem was written in the eighteenth year of Hongzhi, a year that had passed six years after Tang Bohu was deeply involved in the scientific examination fraud case. In the past six years, it is difficult for us to imagine how much humiliation and mental pressure Tang Bohu has suffered.
Tang Bohu, once one of the four great talents in Jiangnan, was only eight buckets high and praised by the world. As the saying goes: "Learn and excel". As a talented person, tang Bohu would naturally go to take the imperial examination. Before leaving, Tang Bohu and several of his good friends, such as Wen Zhengming and Zhu Zhishan, said that this time the winner must be tang Bohu.
Tang Bohu, who was full of confidence, set off to take the imperial examination. However, we must know that in ancient times, without planes and trains, people could only walk thousands of miles to the capital to take the imperial examination, and even our great talent Tang Bohu could only take the imperial examination step by step.
Along the way, Tang Bohu met a figure who would have an important impact on his life, that is, Xu Jing.
At this time, Tang Bohu was already a world-famous talent, and Xu Jing was a local rich man with a little money in his family. Due to the influence of the celebrity effect, Xu Jing took the initiative to bear all the expenses of Tang Bohu along the way, and treated Tang Bohu with great respect.
After the two arrived in the capital, they began to take exams together. After the exam, when the results had not yet come down, Tang Bohu loudly declared at a wine table: "Don't argue, this time the winner is not someone else, it is me Tang Bohu!" ”
The speaker had no intention, the listener was intentional, Tang Bohu forgot that this was not Jiangnan, and the people sitting next to him were not Friends such as Wen Zhengming, and then Tang Bohu's words were reported.
As a result, there was really an incident of cheating in the field, and this incident was caused by Xu Jing, a friend he knew on Tang Bohu Road. Because of this incident, Tang Bohu was implicated, his meritorious name was deprived, and he was not allowed to take the exam for the rest of his life, and Tang Bohu's dream of examination was shattered.
Since then, Tang Bohu has undergone many drastic changes, for example, Tang Bohu and his wife have fallen out of harmony, and finally Tang Bohu has lost his wife; after that, Tang Bohu has a serious illness, which took a long time to get better; Tang Bohu separated from his brother again; because he was not good at management, Tang Bohu's family ran out of property and had to rely on selling paintings for a living; Tang Bohu and his friend Wen Zhengming lost peace.
In the end, Tang Bohu established the Peach Blossom Nunnery as his foothold.
The above is the background of the creation of "Peach Blossom An poem".
Why did you write this poem?
To be honest, we are all ordinary people, who may cry for a long time because their favorite characters in the romance drama die, may be sad for a few years because their pet cat is dead; may want to commit suicide because of the departure of their boyfriend and girlfriend. We are vulnerable.
But what about Tang Bohu? He is like the heroine of the Korean drama, a bastard thing is coming towards him, in exchange for us ordinary people facing this situation may have long thought of suicide, life is too bitter, still alive to do ah!
If Tang Bohu also thinks so, and does this, he will not become the protagonist of major film and television dramas in the future.
In the face of this situation, Tang Bohu became more open-minded and optimistic, God, since I have nothing, then you don't want to deprive me of my last bit of happiness!
Therefore, Tang Bohu completely looked away!
Laugh and laugh, slash the west wind, what a mess for me!
In that case, I'm going to live a wonderful life!
Why do people like this poem now?
Interpret the angle. When I sometimes read this poem, what I see is not open-mindedness, but escape, escape into a "peach blossom garden" like a peach blossom temple, away from the world, is this not quite in line with our current "funeral culture"?
In addition, this poem is playful and interesting and catchy, which is very in line with the portrayal of Tang Bohu in our film and television works, and also satisfies our imagination of Tang Bohu.
But when you learn the background of the poem, I think you will re-understand the poem.
There is only one true heroism in the world, that is, to recognize the truth of life and still love it. --Romain Rolland
