Life of the characters

Yang Xunji was born in 1456, the seventh year of Jingtai, and died in 1544, the 23rd year of Jiajing.

Chenghua 20 years (1484) Jinshi, the Ministry of rites principal. Good reading, every proud is dancing, can't help, known as "bumping the main thing.". I also like collecting books very much. When I heard that someone had a different book, I would buy it and write it. Rich family, with a huge amount of money to buy books, the collection of more than 100000 volumes, old age is destitute.

In the first year of Hongzhi (1488), Yandang cottage was built as a special building named "Wo Du Zhai", in which the classics and history were read every day. There is a saying in his poems that "Shen Ji is already bowing, but he still loves books. Every time you hear of a strange book, you will find it in many ways. Hand record and trade people, constant dropout of food and clothing. He claimed to collect books "although the small ones are not prepared, the large ones are also slightly complete.". At that time, the book collectors in Wuzhong, such as Zhu Cunli, Wu Kuan, Yan Qishan and Du Mu, all copied books by hand. In addition, "shousongtang" wrote "poems about bookcase" and "poems about copying books", claiming to be "classics, history and subsets". When you are angry, you will be happy; when you are sick, you will be cured. Depending on this for life, the front is piled up. The book collection is printed with the seal of "Yan village resident", "Wo Du Jing Shi Zi Ji", "Yang Xun Ji book collection" and so on.

He is narrow in nature and good at holding people's strengths and weaknesses. He is poor in learning. Zeng Shangshu asked for the release of the descendants of Jianwen emperor. When Wu Kuan heard of it, he scolded him: "Ru'an must destroy the family for this?" To seize the sparsity and not to let go. Because of his poor health, Hongzhi returned to his official career at the beginning of his life. At the age of 31, he settled down at the foot of Zhilin mountain. He took reading and writing as a matter of fact and said to himself, "do you think I'm happy in the mountains? I must forget the world and love Longmu. The Yamen came out in the morning, unable to support, sighing empty.

When Wuzong stayed in Nanjing, he called him to write "Dahu Qu", and also to write Yuefu and Xiaoling. He did not teach officials, but regarded him as a Haiyou. He changed his military attire to be an entourage. He thought it a shame. When Wuzong died, he was able to resign. In Jiajing, he once offered "Ode to nine temples" and "Huayang Qiusi Zhaiyi". He was lonely in his old age and kept himself clean.

On Poetry

Yang Xunji advocated that "Yu Guan's poetry should not be based on metrical style, but on expressing one's mind and describing the scene. Women and children all know the so-called, and then it should be regarded as good poetry. I don't know what to do with other people, who gather up the ancient people's tears and saliva, and who use puppet's false clues to act. Most of the scenery is not poor, people change with each passing day, the position changes, in the shape, how can the ancients say no more words? There are many new sentences in the chapter of Qing Dynasty. They are very difficult to recite (preface to Zhu Yingchen's poems) this idea guides his creative practice.

Most of Yang Xunji's poems are about the feelings and trivial things in his life. For example, "duxiajiang guishuhuai" and "gift to Wangjun" are the cases of his returning because of illness. Some people suspected that he didn't become an official because of illness. He replied, "I love you so much. I love you so much. When the Yamen enters in the morning, it starts to come out. It can't help but sigh in the air. " The first time he ate the red bayberry at home, the newly built hut, a few strands of white hair on his head, and the autumn rain in the middle of the road, he became a poet. This kind of poetry is straightforward, simple and natural. However, due to the lack of proper conception and necessary tempering, the poetic flavor is not strong. As for some of his poems, which are easy to interpret, they are more like the quotations of Zen. In addition, his ancient prose is simple and precipitous, paying attention to the structure.

Compilation of records

Su Tan, the author of the book, contains many local documents, and anecdotes. Records include: Yao shouchongshi, Xiagei earning poems, Han gongyouji, sengzhongji, Wuzhong medical school, Shi Minggu Xiuzhi, Gu aying's extravagance, Wu Duxian's courage, Changshu Jiuling, Zhongfeng thatched cottage, Wugong's water control, Yao Shaoshi's Guangxiao and magnanimity, Linwu Dongtian, Dongping Zhiyi Wenxiang's benevolent government, Wenxiang's Buddha stunt, Tongfeng Shiwu, Suzhi's fire, Dongye Jianwu Ren, Yang Shangshu yuzhongju, Wen zhenguide There are thirty-four examples, such as jieji, Xiaqing Fengzhi, Liu Shide, Jianren, Shoubu, Chen's family, Wansan yizhai, Liu ShouZhen's fallacies, Lu daofen's donation, Wujing Wenlei, tongcun Jianwen, qiaoshi and Diyan. The book not only records the way of the resident officials to engage in politics, but also expounds their own views on compiling annals. For example, it is said in Shi Ming Gu Xiu Zhi: "when Shi Ming Gu compiled Wujiang county annals, he wanted to list mountains and rivers as a gate, but Wujiang had no mountains. According to the theory of auspicious causes, the ancient Ming Dynasty said: Hengshan is also in the territory of my city. Xun Ji said: Hengshan is the mountain of Wuxian, but Wujiang has a horn. How can we cut each other? Shidu xuanjing is also here, laughing with each other. Yang Xunji's opinion of seeking truth from facts is desirable.

He also wrote five volumes of Suzhou Fu Zhi Bian Shi Lue, which is a real record compiled in Jiajing period. As Suzhou is the capital of Southeast China, with abundant cultural relics and numerous deeds, we urge you to take charge of the compilation of local chronicles.

It is compiled and narrated according to the year and year, with official documents of the government at the top of the volume. Among them, there is only one item about politics. Ji Taicang's establishment of a state is the most well-documented one. He also tells the story of Shi Tiantai, a pirate, in detail. Wu county annals began in Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty. Su you, the then county magistrate, hired Yang Xunji to complete the 16th volume of county annals. The preface of the scroll says: "Wu founded the county in Qin Dynasty, and the one who built the county on the river for several thousand years should be examined by a special book. However, it has not been mentioned so far? This book is sixteen volumes, with 80000 words. " The main text is as follows: Volume 1, the name of the city, territory, shape and customs; Volume 2, the origin of Wu state; Volume 3, the titles of the county government, the official, the county magistrate; Volume 4, Hukou, Tianfu, etc.; Volume 5, school, Xuegong, etc.; Volume 6, temples and temples in the territory; Volume 7, to 10, biographies of people; Volume 11, mountains and monuments; Volume 12, water, with the deeds of water control since the song and Yuan Dynasties, ancient water conservancy theory; Volume 10 3、 The historical sites since the Zhou and Han Dynasties; Volume 14 local products; Volume 15 ancient and modern poems; Volume 16 ancient and modern articles.
