Life of the characters
The early years were rough
Jiang Yan could write poems at the age of six and lost his father at the age of thirteen. Although his family is poor, he is easy to learn, introverted and not easy to communicate. When he was about 20 years old, he taught Liu Zizhen, king of Shi'an, to read "Five Classics" and once served under the curtain of Liu ziluan, king of Xin'an. After that, he was transferred to Xin'an Wang in southern Xuzhou, and soon he was transferred to Fengchao.
In 466, King Jianping of the Southern Song Dynasty, Liu Jingsu liked talented people, so Jiang Yan transferred to Liu Jingsu's shogunate in southern Yanzhou. Later, Guangling county magistrate Guo Yanwen was convicted, Jiang Yan was implicated and put into prison. Jiang Yan wrote a letter in prison claiming that he was wronged. Liu Jingsu released him the same day after reading the book.
In the spring of 468, Jiang Yan was recommended as a scholar in southern Xuzhou. In the autumn of the same year, he was rated as excellent for his good performance and was appointed Zuo Changshi of Baling kingdom.
Liu Jingsu was the prefect of Jingzhou, and Jiang Yan was the general of the town. After song Shaodi ascended the throne, the government was in chaos, and Liu Jingsu was in power. Everyone urged him to fight against the court. Jiang Yan always admonished: "rumors lead to disaster, which is the reason why Guan Shu and Cai Shu perished together; conflicts lead to resentment, and the princes of the seven kingdoms were killed. If you don't ask for the safety of the country and listen to the tactics of the left and right, you will see the elk frost dew on Gusu stage again. " Liu Jingsu didn't take his advice. Later, Liu Jingsu guarded Jingkou, and Jiang Yan served as a military officer of Zhenjun and a magistrate of Southern Donghai. Liu Jingsu and some close friends plot a rebellion day and night. Jiang Yan knows that the disaster is coming and writes 15 poems to admonish him.
It happened that Lu Cheng, the prefect of Donghai County, was killed by his father. Jiang Yan, as the prefect, thought he should act as the prefect, while Liu Jingsu employed Sima Liu Shilong. Jiang Yan insisted on asking. Liu Jingsu was very angry and told the election department to demote Jiang Yan to Wuxing county magistrate of Jian'an county. Jiang Yan served as county magistrate for three years.
All the way up
In 477, when Xiao Daocheng was in power, he heard that Jiang Yan had talent and called him to serve as the Minister of state.
Soon after, Shen Youzhi, the governor of Jingzhou, started to make trouble. Xiao Daocheng asked Jiang Yan, "what do you think we should do if the world is in such a mess?" Jiang Yan replied: "in the past, Xiang Yu was strong and Liu Bang was weak; Yuan Shao had more people than Cao Cao; Xiang Yu had been enfeoffed as a vassal, and finally he committed suicide and was humiliated; Yuan Shao had occupied four prefectures, and finally he became a defeated general. This shows that "virtue makes the world.". Why should you worry? " Xiao Daocheng said: "there are many people who have heard this statement. Please tell me more about it." Jiang Yan said, "if you are brave and resourceful, you will win one; if you are tolerant and kind, you will win two; if you are wise and capable, you will win three; if the hearts of the people are toward you, you will win four; if you are under the command of the son of heaven, you will win five. Shen you's ambition is great, but his ability is small, so he will lose one; he will lose two if he has authority but no obedience; he will lose three if he doesn't want to fight; he will lose four if officials and gentlemen don't like him; he will lose five if his troops are scattered on the front of thousands of miles and can't help each other and overcome difficulties together. So even if there are 100000 rebels, we will eventually capture them. " Xiao Daocheng said with a smile, "you've gone too far." At that time, Jiang Yan was asked to draft the military war documents.
In 479, Xiao Daocheng was promoted to prime minister, and Jiang Yan was replaced as a military officer.
In the first year of Jianyuan (479) of Qi Dynasty in the Southern Dynasty, Jiang Yan was appointed as the king's office of Hushi Yuzhang and concurrently the magistrate of Dongwu county. He participated in drafting imperial edicts and writing national history. Soon he was promoted to minister of Zhongshu.
In the first year of Yongming Dynasty (483), Jiang Yanqian was promoted to general Hushi, who was in charge of the history of the country. Then he went out to Beijing to serve as general Jianwu and internal history of Luling. After three years in office, he returned to Beijing to be promoted to general Xiaoqi and Minister Zuo Cheng. Soon he took up the post of Guozi doctor.
In the first year of Yanxing (494), Jiang Yan took the post of Zhongcheng. Xiao Luan, the prime minister at that time, said to Jiang Yan, "you used to be in Shangshu Taichung. You didn't take care of your own business. You were not too strict or too lax in being an official. Now that he is in charge of Nansi, he will surely be able to frighten all serious officials. " Jiang Yan replied, "it's just a routine now. I'm afraid it's just a short ambition. I'm not competent." So he impeached Xie Kai, situ zuochang Shi Wanghui, and Guard commander Shi yuhongyuan for the crime of long-term illness regardless of the emperor's Mausoleum affairs. He also appealed to Liu Zhen, the former governor of Yizhou, and Yin Zhibo, the former governor of Liangzhou, for the possession of tens of thousands of coins, which he immediately handed over to Tingwei for conviction. Shen zhaolue, the prefect of Linhai, Yu tanlong, the prefect of Yongjia, as well as many county officials and county officials were impeached and punished. Therefore, both the inner court and the outer government respected him very much. Xiao Luan said to Jiang Yan, "since Liu Song Dynasty, there has been no strict and clear Zhongcheng. You can be regarded as the only one."
prophetic vision
After Xiao Luan was the emperor, Jiang Yan was appointed as the king of Linhai. Soon after, he was promoted to Ting Weiqing, and was granted the title to Shizhong. Then he moved to be the champion general and the general of Canada. Soon after, he was released as the prefect of Xuancheng because of the involvement of Xiao's birthday, and his position as a general remained. After four years as a sheriff, Jiang Yan returned to the capital to serve as a servant of Huangmen, a commander in chief of infantry, and soon a secretary.
In the second year of Yongyuan (500 years), general Cui Huijing of Pingxi sent troops to besiege the capital. All the officials went to join them and presented their business cards. Jiang Yan pretended to be ill at home. After Cui Huijing was defeated and killed, the world was convinced that Jiang Yan had foresight.
Go to Xiao Yan
In the third year of Yongyuan (501), the imperial court appointed Jiang Yan to serve as a guard as a secretary. Jiang Yan insisted on resigning from the post, but he had no choice but to take up the post. Jiang Yan said to people, "it's not that I want to be an official. The world knows it. It's just by borrowing my empty name. Moreover, the time sequence of natural change and the things of human life will soon change. Confucius said, "a man who has literary affairs must be armed." Why worry about making plans when things come to an end? " Soon he was the deputy of Wang Ying. Soon after, Xiao Yan set up his army in Xiangyang. When Xiao Yan's army arrived in Xinlin, the scholar bureaucrats didn't think highly of him and everyone was at ease. However, Jiang Yan took off his official clothes and came to take refuge in the clothes of the common people. Xiao Yan promoted him to be the champion general and still served as the Secretary prison. Soon he was also the chief historian of situ Zuoshi.
In the first year of Zhongxing (501), Jiang Yanqian was appointed Minister of the Ministry of official affairs.

He was granted the title of the founder of Linju county and had 400 households in the city. Jiang Yan said to his children, "I used to be an official without real power. I didn't want to be rich. Now I'm really ashamed of such an official position. I always say contentment in my life. Life as long as happy, why seek wealth. I've been successful and I want to go home and live a normal life. " In the same year, due to illness, he was changed to doctor Jin ziguanglu, and was renamed Marquis of Liling.
In 505, Jiang Yan died at the age of 62. Xiao Yan, Emperor Wu of Liang Dynasty, mourned him for wearing plain clothes and presented him 30000 yuan and 50 pieces of cloth. His posthumous title is xianbo.

literature
Ci Fu
Jiang Yan is a famous poet in the history of Ci and Fu in the Southern Dynasty. He has 28 existing Ci and Fu, all of which are lyric and object chanting. Jiang Yan's Ci Fu inherits the two themes of "the sage loses his ambition" and "chanting things" in Han Fu, and further develops them into Lyric small Fu which mainly describes the inner feelings and body small Fu which is good at emotion. On the basis of understanding the tradition, he also integrated his own tragedy of life, which made Fu present the style of "Sadness" on the whole. Jiang Yan is especially good at describing these "sad" feelings, and has a series of "sad" works. Such as "hen Fu", "BIE Fu" and so on. Jiang Yan's Ci and Fu also showed the spirit of sadness and vigor in the artistic style, and flowed out a clear and beautiful rhyme in the ancient meaning, which swept away the popular music in the field of Fu at that time, representing the high level of Ci and Fu at that time.
At the same time, Jiang Yan is the successor to Yang
