Shen Deqian, a scholar of the Qing Dynasty, praised him as "a man who is independent and indomitable. He is as faithful as a man of gold and stone. It's strange that the history of the Song Dynasty is not a biography."

Life

Wei Jing had little ambition and kept on learning mechanics.

In the 11th year of Chunxi reign of emperor Xiaozong of Song Dynasty (1184), he was the number one scholar of Jiachen branch, who was awarded chengshilang and tianchai Zhendong army. According to the Convention, the number one scholar must pay tribute to the prime minister when he first took office. Wei Jing did not go to see Wang Huai, so he was not promoted.

Chunxi fourteen years (1187), granted as the Secretary of the province Zhengzi.

When Guangzong ascended the throne (1190), Weijing took advantage of natural disasters to spar the imperial court. He said that he was treacherous and treacherous, and was demoted to huaidong and Zhedong.

At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty (1195), he was called to be the Minister of the Ministry of industry. Soon after that, he sent an envoy to the state of Jin. After he came back, he said that although the state of Jin was in danger, I had no policy of autonomy, so I should be angry and self-improvement. He was appointed Zhihuan Zhangge, a coastal envoy, and was impeached. After returning to his hometown, he built the west garden and took Fan Zhongyan's sentence meaning of "worry about the world first, and enjoy the world later". He ordered his hall to be "Hou Le" and called it "Hou Le Ju Shi". His poems and essays were collected as "Hou Le Ji".

Three years, since the Ministry of official book worship Yushi Zhongcheng, granted Kunshan founding uncle, into the knowledge of political affairs. After killing Han Zhuzhou, he was demoted from the court by Shi Miyuan, a traitor. Nine years later, he began to know Yangzhou and became an official after paying homage to the Bachelor of zizhengdian. Because Wei Jing III lived together, the emperor wrote the word "you shun".

family

The Wei family of Kunshan was moved from Huating in the late Northern Song Dynasty. First of all, Wei Tian, a native of Kunshan, was a Jinshi in the eighth year of Zhenghe (1118); his sons Wei Shimin and Wei Jimin successively became officials; Ji Minzi Wei Jing was the number one scholar in the 11th year of Chunxi (1184), and Ning Zongshi was an official to participate in political affairs; Wei Jing's brothers Wei Yi, Wei Qia, Wei Zhu Qingyuan, and Jiading successively took the imperial examinations, and Wei Shi also took the locking hall test. At this stage, the Wei family in Kunshan rapidly developed Show it.

The marriage of the Wei family has its own characteristics. His aunt (Wei Shimin's wife) all came from the Shen family. The second Shen family came from her aunt and nephew and became her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Wei Jing's mother (Wei Jimin's wife) is the daughter of Zhang's family in Huating; Wei Jing's wife, Gai's family, is the daughter of gaijing, the Minister of Chunxi's household and his Aunt Zhang's family. All of Wei Jing's four sisters married scholars who studied and studied Confucianism. Among them, Wei Cong married Zhou Nan, a common friend of Fan Chengda and Wei Jing and a scholar of Shaoxi. Wei Jing's daughter Zhong married Zhou Nan's son, and Zhou gen, Zhou Nan's eldest daughter, married Wei Jing's son Wei PU. The niece of Wei Jing's wife, Gai, married Wei Liu, Wei Jing's youngest son. Among the four generations of the Wei family, there were multiple cousins intermarrying, and the Shen, Zhang, Gai and Zhou families were all influential local families. In addition, Zhou Nan, Wei Cong's husband, and Zhu Xiyan, Wei Yu's husband, lived together in the county and city. They were both brothers in law and Jinshi in the same year.

This kind of marriage mode, because of the relationship between relatives, is deeply intertwined, showing a relatively shrinking trend, which reflects the careful consideration of the Wei family in marriage, and also reflects the strong concern of the bureaucrats in the family for their own local interests. The Wei family has been in Kunshan for more than a hundred years, which may be related to this way of marriage.

Wen Bi Feng

Wenbi peak was built to commemorate Weijing, the first champion in Kunshan history. Generally speaking, it is also like a striking monument, symbolizing that Kunshan has been a country of etiquette with prosperous culture for thousands of years.

There is an interesting astrological record in the annals of Kunshan County: "during the reign of emperor Xiaozong of Song Dynasty, Kuixing was found in the east of Cuiwei Pavilion in Yufeng mountain and the west of Miaofeng tower." Kuixing is the star God of Wenqu and Wuqu. The discovery of Kuixing is a happy event, which indicates that Kunshan will be born a number one scholar in the world. Sometimes it's a coincidence that the feudal superstitious saying goes along. Wei Jing, a scholar in Shipu Town, Southeast of Kunshan, went to Lin'an (Hangzhou, the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty) for an examination. He won three successive victories and won the first place in the imperial examinations in 1143.

To be the number one scholar in the examination means to be in an official career and have a chance to be appointed as an official by the imperial court, or be sent abroad, or stay in the capital. However, at that time, the officialdom was very corrupt. If he got the Jinshi examination, he was the number one scholar. If he wanted to be an official, he had to give gifts to the Ministry of officials, the prime minister and other bureaucrats. Wei Jing had a decent style. After he won the first place in the examination, he didn't bribe the officials and lived in Hangzhou, waiting for the imperial court to send him. Those senior officials did not receive the gift of the new champion, so they put him aside and ignored him. A lot of Jinshi who had the same subject as Wei Jing got black hats and put on red robes one after another because of offering bribes and gifts. Only Wei Jing lived in a private apartment.

In the twinkling of an eye, in the winter, Wei Jing ran out of money when he took the exam, so he couldn't afford to pay for the accommodation, and was almost driven out by the boss of the trestle house. One day, it happened that the governor Zhu Xi went out on a tour and found Wei Jing, a new top scholar in a poor family, so he recommended him to be an official.

Wei Jing lived in the Southern Song Dynasty. He was invaded by Liao and Jin Dynasties, and his power declined day by day. During the reign of Han Zhou, the prime minister, he left the Northern Expedition blindly and suffered defeat, which made the people homeless and miserable. Wei Jing judged the situation and thought that the military, financial and material resources of the Southern Song Dynasty were not enough to launch the northern expedition. Because of his disagreement with Han Zhou's political views, although "the article is beneficial to the current society", the ruling people do not welcome it. "You don't have to resign if you are loyal to him," Wei Jing said.

Wei Jing, who is in a high position, is honest and upright, and strict with himself. He often takes Fan Zhongyan's famous saying "worry about the world first, and enjoy the world later" as his motto. His hall is called "Houyue hall", and he is called "Houle Jushi". At the age of 68, Weijing was seriously ill. He died in October and was buried in Shifo mountain, Guian County, Huzhou. His posthumous title was Wenjie.

The scholars in Kunshan admired Weijing very much. Beside the Miaofeng tower, where Kuixing had appeared in Yufeng mountain, they built a memorial archway, named Wenbi peak; changed lu'ao mountain in Shipu to Zhuangyuan mountain; and changed Weijing's school to Wenjie Academy. In memory of Wei Jing.

In the fourth year of Wanli (1576), Shen Enke, the county magistrate of Kunshan, moved the wenbifeng memorial archway to the baililou of ziyunyan, and the rock was named wenbifeng. When people climb mountains, they always like to stand in front of Wenbi peak to enjoy the scenery and expand their mind. Most of the literati came here to visit, leaving many poems. For example, Gu Dingchen, a senior official of the Ming Dynasty, praised the song of Wenbi peak

Zhong Ling's pregnant show is unpredictable, and there is a peak with astronomical pen in it.

The peak is precipitous, and the teeth of the rock are precipitous.

God drunk anger splash cloud ink, God building dream dawn born day flower.

The sky is full of dragons and snakes

A long rainbow can be carved in a hundred feet

Later, wenbifeng memorial archway still collapsed. Until the beginning of this century, in order to carry forward the national culture, local enthusiasts in Kunshan took the Xiangxian Weijing as an example to encourage the backward, and cast a more vivid big brush on the Bank of ziyunyan, which is engraved with three big characters in seal style wenbifeng.

Mountains are famous for their peaks, which are towering. Tourists climb ziyunyan and look up at Wenbi peak. In addition to watching the seventy-two changing scenery, they can also understand the origin and development of Wenbi peak, which may inspire more profound reverie.
