Profile
Wang Tan, the 59th year of Qianlong (1794), was not the first person in the examination. "You can see everything you want to learn. A good Ranger and a good strategist. He who is good at bows and arrows flies like a horse. It's an impassioned Elegy "(Qian Yong's preface to the collection of Yanxia ancient buildings). When he was young, he learned magic from lamas, half involved in games, and was said to be able to make "palm thunder". In the first year of Jiaqing (1796), the Bailian sect in the Yangtze River Valley broke up. Wu Shengqin, the censor of the left capital, recommended Wang Tan to He Li, saying that Wang Tan could subdue the people with "five thunder methods". At the same time, he lost power and was given death by Jiaqing. Wu Shengqin thought that the party attached to he was not allowed by public opinion. As a result, Wang Tan was implicated, attacked, wronged, tried again and again, and his career was cut off. From then on, Wang Tan's behavior became more and more indulgent, which was regarded as grotesque by the world. Listening to his talk, he would avoid, fearing that he would be inferior to others. Every time he mentioned Wang Tan, he was like "talking about dragons and snakes, talking about tigers and leopards.". Therefore, Wang Tan was down and out in the world all his life, pretending to be crazy and playing with the world. Wang Tan's stepwife, Jin Liying, was talented and good at poetry and painting. Gong Zizhen once wrote Jinfu people's landscape painting, which was highly praised, especially his mountain dwelling painting. Wang Tan wrote a couplet: "the wife is too clever, the husband is too strange, there are so many ghosts." In his later years, he moved to Hangzhou West Lake for two years. His wife died of illness, and Wang Tan was even more lonely. Later he settled down and died in Suzhou.

Emperor Rui denounced his false birth, so Wu gave up, and Tan even died. In other words: the emperor of the province and the party, seeing the new deal solemnly, and the defeat, entrusted to Jun do not understand the matter, hoping to go to the official with minor blame (according to: Jiaqing donghualu Renzong edict also said that Wu was afraid of impeachment, so avoid the heavy and light).

It's not arrogant to talk about the actions of heaven and Carving Dragons, but the world is proud of them. " Wang Tan's poems are bold and unrestrained, but also have the disease of carelessness. Shu Wei thinks that his "seven character ancient poetry has a unique world" and "the works of his peers seldom meet their enemies" (notes on poems in pingshuizhai).

Wang Tan is also a painter and good at landscape painting. Critics say that his works have "a kind of strange and vertical tendency, which can not be looked down upon. He is talented and brilliant. He has a half life in the world, and he uses famous mountains and rivers to expand his mind, so there are many hills and gullies.".

He also said that Wang Tan's various criticisms and behaviors, that is, "all the strange things are caused by cruel reality, and they are all the manifestations of dissatisfaction and escapism.
