Tao Wangling

Tao Wangling

Tao Wangling (1562-1609), whose name is Zhouwang, was born in Huiji of Ming Dynasty (now Shaoxing of Zhejiang Province). In the 17th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1589), he was the first in the imperial examination and the third in the imperial examination. He edited the Imperial Academy and participated in the compilation of national history. He was promoted to be a lecturer and was in charge of the examination. Later, he was ordered to serve as the Imperial Academy's sacrificial wine. Tao Wangling is an honest and upright official, free from corruption.

His life is pure and quiet, and his greatest pleasure is to study. He also regarded learning as a rest, and used the word "xie'an" to name his room. Scholars sometimes call him Mr. xie'an. Tao Wangling believed Wang Shouren's theory of "self contentment in the heart" in his life, and thought it was the most practical "famous and profound teaching". His works include several volumes of making grass, 20 volumes of xieanji, 12 volumes of Jiezhuang and 13 volumes of tianshuige.

Life of the characters

Tao Wangling, the third son of Tao Chengxue, the Minister of rites in Nanjing in Ming Dynasty, is the nephew of Tao Dalin, the top ranking official. In 1566, Tao Wangling had few literary names. When he was five years old, someone appeared in the Shanglian "Zhongju zhongjinshi," and he said in reply, "I wish you a sage." When he was 7 years old, his father worked in Henan, and the whole family was on the way, but his mother wanted to return home. His mother asked Tao Wangling, "from father? From the mother He arched his hand and said, "a man should follow his father." And he walked with his father. When he was 9 years old, he and his brother often "sit all day long" and ask each other questions and answers. No one can understand what they are saying, "all languages in the world.". Tao Wangling, a 17-year-old disciple of Buyi, devoted himself to the ancient prose, "searching for Bai's, striving to pursue the pre Qin period, and widely involved in various books.". At the age of 19, she married the daughter of Shang Weizheng and the aunt of Zuo, a scholar of Shang and Zhou dynasties. At the beginning of Yan'er, she still read and wrote every day. After reading Tao Wangling's article, Lin Jingyong, the inspector of Zhejiang Province, spoke highly of Tao Wangling and gave him special treatment.

Tao Wangling took the second place in the rural examination in the 13th year of Wanli (1585). Four years later, the imperial examination was the first and the palace examination was the third. In the same year as Dong Qichang and Yuan Keli, he was awarded the Imperial Academy editor. In March of the 23rd year of Wanli (1595), he was nominated by the cabinet as the official history editor. He studied the theory of Xing Li with Jiao Hong, yuan Boxiu and Huang Pingqian, especially Wang Yangming's theory. He has been in the Imperial Academy for a long time, and is regarded as the first poet with fresh and self-supporting. Wanli 33 years (1605) in October, promoted to Guozijian Jijiu.

Zaifu Shen always wanted to frame up Guo Zhengyu, the Minister of rites, by "demon book". In an emergency, Tao Wangling and his colleagues Yang Daobin and Zhou Rudi, the number one scholar of Tang Dynasty, came to see Shen Guanyi. They were responsible for justice, and they were willing to abandon their officials and die with Guo Shangshu. With the help of the officials, Guo Zhengyu's case was relieved.

Tao Wangling once wrote in Zhengji Gang, which said: "what the minister is, what the minor minister is not, help each other and criticize each other, so as to become Cao couple. The next is to fight for the law illegally, and the last is to stop talking. One discussion is repeated, but it has not been decided for several months; one word is tangled, but there are many documents. Then the minister and the junior minister will not hand over. " It points out that there are four kinds of malpractices in the lack of communication between the cabinet officials and the court officials, which result in "bad spirit, but asking about the discipline". Ji Gang does not adjust, but asks about customs. If the horse doesn't plan the car, he will blame the horse if he doesn't serve. " It's a strange phenomenon. It's a pity that his memorial, which is related to the national economy and the people's livelihood, has not been taken seriously. Tao Wangling also talked about the border defense, which was also not adopted.

In the 24th year of Wanli (1596), Tao Wangling asked for leave to return home. Yuan Hongdao was the county magistrate of Wuxian County in Jiangsu Province. Tao Wangling went to visit with admiration. They had a long talk for three days and became intimate friends. The following year, yuan Zhonglang resigned and came to Shaoxing. He traveled with Tao Wangling in the mountains and waters of Shaoxing. He had a strong interest in the strange mountains, rocks and beautiful waters of Shaoxing and wrote many famous poems, which made Shaoxing famous in the world. One night, Yuan Hongdao picked out the books on the bookshelf at Tao Wangling's house and got a volume of the poem "Que Bian". The paper printing technique was poor, and all of them were blackened by coal smoke. However, after reading a few poems under the light, Yuan Hongdao jumped up in surprise and asked Tao, "who is the author of this poem? The ancients? Or are you today? " Tao said, "this is written by my fellow countryman Mr. Xu Wei." So they read the poem under the lamp together, and they cheered. After cheering, they read again. The sleeping boy servants were woken up by them. With the encouragement of Yuan Hongdao, Tao Wangling made great efforts to collect and sort out the works of Xu Wei, a famous painter, and compiled a 30 volume collection of Xu Wenchang.

Historical records

It is recorded that there is a place called Xishi mountain in Suzhou where Xishi teachers sing and dance. Once, Yuan Hongdao and Tao Wangling visited the mountain together, and Tao wrote a poem: "stay for a few nights in the mountain of charming songs and dancing." Yuan Hongdao said: "it should be noted in this poem that she lived in Xishi mountain for a few nights, not that there was a beautiful woman singing and dancing. Otherwise, others will misunderstand you for your misbehavior, and you will not get the posthumous title of "wenkegong" after your death. "

Tao Wangling believed Wang Yangming's theory of mind all his life. He was good at poetry and writing. He didn't care about chapters and sentences when he read. He was strict in grammar and full in meaning. He often came from the "two Soviet Union". He and his twin brother Tao Shiling are well-known in the world. In his early years, Tao Wangling had "a clear style of poetry, detached from the gods and fairies." After middle age, "give lectures and escape Zen." Especially after I met Yuan Hongdao, I was deeply influenced by Gong'an School. Therefore, some people ridicule him as "white sand in the mud, black with people."

After Tao Wangling's death, he was named Wenjian.
