Life of the characters

Although Wei Fu was in a high position, there was no biography of him in the official history of the Tang Dynasty.

According to the book of the new Tang Dynasty, the second lineage of the prime minister (Wei family), his grandfather was Wei Ying and his father was Wei Chang. Although he had no official position, he lived in liangfushi, Tongzhou. The complete Tang poetry includes three poems by Wei Fu and gives a brief introduction to him.

In the fourth year of the reign of emperor Wenzong of the Tang Dynasty, he was promoted to the rank of Jinshi, and became an official.

Literary achievements

Wei Fu has a lot of literary talent. There are three poems that have been spread all over the world. When he was a scholar in Wutong, Wei Fukao was a chief examiner during the Xuanzong period. He once wrote a poem on the wall of the Gong Yuan, with a clear mind and his mind; "the Gong Gong Yuan" poem said: "the phoenix tree leaves fall full of Yin, locking the door of the gate to test the hospital deeply. I used to work hard in the past, but I will not bear the original intention today. " A scholar removed the two words in front of each sentence in his poem and turned it into a poem with the opposite meaning: "the leaves fall all over the court, and the gate of Zhumen is deep. In the past, I worked hard, but today I'm negative. " This is the "skinned poem" which can be spread in later generations. The "skinned poem" is also called "pseudo ancient poem". This kind of poem is usually based on the well-known poems of the former people. By using the techniques of abridgement, addition, reversal, modification or imitation, the resulting poem has a distinctive new meaning in contrast with the original poem, as well as the effect of ridicule and humor, which is loved by people. Wei Fu also wrote a famous poem "Fu Chou", which said: "Chou. Far away, late autumn. On the pillow, frown. Sitting in the boudoir, traveling far away. Ba ape can't stop crying, and the valley is still flowing. See off the boat into Pu, homesick moon climbing. Yanbo sooner or later long Jilv, string music all year round five Hou This is the so-called "double tower" poem at that time. It is composed of one to seven character verses. Generally, the left tower does not rhyme, but the right tower rhymes. In Wei Fu's poem about the confrontation between two towers, the left and right towers are only half a tower. In the ocean of Chinese poetry, its artistic conception and charm make people have endless aftertaste. There is also a poem by Wei Fu "he Bai Minzhong" in the whole Tang poetry, which says: "Xiao Guanxin revives the old mountains and rivers, and the ancient garrison to Qin yuan is fresh. The emperor's power was gradually subdued. Gonglu remote garrison smoke out, Shenwu light Yang bamboo. Zuoren knows gedize as much as he can, but he has three sides Wei Fu's poems integrate emotion and scenery. There is scenery in emotion and emotion in scenery. It makes people feel heartbroken, as if they are in a wonderful situation.
