Zhan Miao was born in 1054 in Tongluoba, Duting Town, Lichuan, Hubei Province. Zhan Miao's parents died when he was a child. He and his grandparents, who were 70 or 80 years old, depended on three ducks to lay eggs for salt. Zhan Miao's house is a thatched shed surrounded by 10 bamboo fences. It has a floor drain in the sky, no shelter from the wind and cold, the wind comes and the dust goes, the moon is the lamp, the dog is as thin as a bow, the pig shivers, and the rat is hungry. However, Zhan Miao was born intelligent and could not be compared with others. His grandparents saved food and clothing and sent him to study. Zhan Miao is ambitious, studious, well read, gifted and smart. He is praised by all the villagers.

Zhao Xuli, a philosopher, learned a lot in the field of Ci poetry. He selected talents. Recommended by local officials, Zhan Miao went to Korea to take the exam. In the imperial examination, zhe Zong asked Miao, "where do you live?" Zhan Miao replied, "I live in the pavilion of Qingjiang capital. It was originally a beautiful place. In Zhou Dynasty, Manzi was loyal and righteous. In Han Dynasty, the king of bamboo was the ruler of Xinjiang." Seeing Miao's extraordinary language, zhe Zong asked, "what's the scenery like?" Miao replied: "in the east there is a jade pen facing the sky, in the West there is a city wall of ten thousand li, in the south there are eight treasures for alchemy, in the north there is Wolong tunjiang." Zhe Zong then asked, "how many people are there in the family?" Miao replied: "seventy people carry water, eighty people collect firewood; three boats carry salt down the river, and one kite is knocked off at the beach, often short of salt." Zhe Zong asked again, "how big is the house?" Miao answer: "ten archways around the wall, a thousand column head landing, ten thousand pieces of silk grass cover the top, two Zhang wide capacity eight life." Zhe Zong asked, "how many servants are there?" Miao replied: "no servants, the wind sweeps the floor, the moon lights the lamp, the dog pulls the bow, the pig plays the piano, and the mouse reads the Five Classics in the middle of the night." Zhan Miao answered the question like a stream. He answered zhe Zong the location of his hometown, the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers, and the condition of his family with exquisite language. Zhe Zong was very surprised, and he was happy to call out: "prodigy!" Later, he asked about the general plan of governing the country, and Zhan Miao answered them one by one. Zhezong was very happy and awarded Zhan Miao the first place in the Department of erudite and macro CI. The good news came that Zhan Miao was the number one scholar in Gaodeng. Li people built Longqiao to wait for him to return to his hometown. The next year, Zhan Miao was allowed to return to his hometown. Unexpectedly, he was killed by a traitor on the way. He was 35 years old. After Zhan Miao died, Li people buried him in Yangjiagou, the northern foot of Ganxi mountain, 15 Li west of duting town.
