The first half of Lu You's marriage with Tang Wan is simply the Southern Song Dynasty version of "Peacock Flying Southeast".
The difference is the ending. Lu You and Tang Wan divorced and married each other, but because of this, this story is even more sad.
The Southern Song Dynasty poet Lu You is one of the poets who has preserved the most poems in Chinese history to this day, but he had a marriage that he will never forget and mourn for a lifetime. Lu You was of the Jiangnan Wang clan and married his cousin Tang Wan at the age of twenty. Tang Wan is also from the eunuch family, is a beautiful and virtuous talented woman, and Lu You can be described as a door-to-door pair, very well matched.
Lu You and Tang Wan are deeply in love and complement each other. But the problem is that Lu You's mother, Tang Wan, is Tang Wan's aunt, who dislikes Tang Wan very much. Lu You and Tang Wan were married for only a few years, because Lu You's mother did not like Tang Wan's talent, did not like Tang Wan and Lu You to be too close, and on the grounds that Tang Wan had nothing to do, Lu You divorced his wife. The mother's life is difficult to violate, and Lu You can only do it.
The Southern Song Dynasty 'Qi Dong Ye Yu' says that "Lu Wuguan first married the daughter of the Tang clan, and Yu's mother and wife were his aunt and nephew." The two of them got it, and the buddha got it for his sister. That is to say, at that time, it was believed that Lu You and Tang Wan divorced because of the discord between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. In fact, the main responsibility for the tragedy of Lu You and Tang Wan is not that Tang Wan does not like Tang Wan, nor does it lie that Tang Wan did not have children, the main responsibility lies in Lu You. It was Lu You who was unable to protect his wife.
Tang Shi, like Jiao Zhongqing's mother, looks at her son everywhere and thinks that her son has a promising future, but the actual situation is that Lu You is as hopeless as Jiao Zhongqing. In the end, Lu You remarried wang and had children, and Lu You had another concubine. Tang Wan remarried Zhao Shicheng, the patriarch of the Song Dynasty.
Although Lu You and Tang Wan were both alive and married to others, it was also a torture to say goodbye alive. However, Tang Wan's second husband, Zhao Shicheng, was still very kind to her, and Zhao Shicheng had a more generous personality.
In 1151 AD, when Lu You was twenty-six years old, he and Tang Wan, who had already married Zhao Shicheng, were reunited in Shen Garden, and the two of them respectively wrote "Chao Tou Feng" to express their parting. Lu You married Tang Wan at the age of twenty, and when he was twenty-six years old, the two of them had separated and married each other, which showed that the two people had not been together for several years. With that kind of mother-in-law being difficult, Tang Wan's failure to have a child is actually too normal.
More than forty years later, Tang Wan had died, and Lu You visited Shen Garden again, reminiscing about his previous love, and wrote two famous "Shen Garden" inscription wall poems.
