Life of the characters
Song Xiang's ancestor is song Weizi, the monarch of Song state. Song Shen, his great ancestor, was appointed Zhongcheng, the censor at the time of Zhaozong of Tang Dynasty. He was removed from his post because of improper speech, and his family moved to yongqiu County, Kaifeng Prefecture.
Song Xiang was born in the second year of Zhidao reign of Emperor Taizong of Song Dynasty (996). When he was young, he studied abroad with his younger brother Song Qi and his father. He left his father and returned home a little longer. At the beginning of the Song Dynasty, Xiang was named Songjiao. Later, because the censor said that his surname was Fuguo and his name should be jiaotian, Jiao and Jiao had the same pronunciation and the meaning of alternation. Song Renzong ordered him to change his name, so Songjiao changed his name to Songxiang and changed its word order.
Song Renzong Tiansheng two years (1024 years), song Xiang, Song Qi two brothers, the same title jiazike Jinshi. The Ministry of rites played song Qi first and song Xiang third. Empress dowager Liu (empress Zhangxian) didn't want to give priority to her brother, but promoted song Xiang first and set Song Qi tenth, so she was called "double champion" of brothers. Therefore, song Xiangcheng's rural examination, the imperial examination and the imperial examination were all the first "Lianzhong Sanyuan" people.
After the number one scholar in Xiangzhong of Song Dynasty, he promoted Dali and judged Xiangzhou. Empress Dowager Liu took a fancy to her. She was promoted to the crown prince zhongyun and zhishiguan. She served as a judge of the three divisions of the household department. She practiced daily notes and moved to Zuo Zhengyan.
When empress Guo of song Renzong was abolished, song Xiang argued with the censor in the official office and was fined. After a long time, song Xiang was appointed to make patent. Zeng Shangshu suggested that civil and military examination should be conducted separately in the imperial examination, which was adopted. Before long, he was also the editor of the history museum and the judge of the criminal court. At that time, a overlord in Mizhou made wine without permission and killed people. Song Xiang insisted on the death sentence of Wang Shu, regardless of the intercession of Prime Minister Chen yaozuo, which greatly boosted the popular support.
During the reign of Baoyuan (1038-1040), song Xiang served as a counsellor in the government.
Song Xiang is famous for his elegance in the aspect. He has a clear distinction between right and wrong, and is at odds with his colleague Lu Yijian. He is finally transferred to Yangzhou because he opposes Fan Zhongyan's "Qingli New Deal". After the failure of the new deal, the imperial court promoted song Xiang as a privy envoy.
In the third year of Qingli (1043), because of his son's contact with bandits, he went out to know Henan Province and moved to know Xuzhou and Heyang.
In the seventh year of Qingli (1047), during the spring drought, Renzong adopted the old rule of dismissing Sangong by disaster in the Eastern Han Dynasty, dismissing Jia Changchao, the prime minister, and dismissing all the other auxiliary ministers. Song Xiang was the right admonishing official.
Qingli eight years (1048), in addition to the Minister of work minister, full pivot emissary.
In the first year of Huangyou (1049), he paid homage to the Minister of the Ministry of war and the Minister of tongzhongshu. He lived in the same position for a long time, but made no achievements.

In the first year of Zhiping (1064), song Xiang asked to return home. He was not allowed to return home. He was renamed Zheng Guogong, who was called zhenwuning army and sentenced to Bozhou. In his later years, he gradually went up and down, and loved his young son. After he arrived in Bozhou, he asked for many times to return home, and finally became an official of Sikong.
In April 1066, song Xiang died of illness at home at the age of 71. The imperial court bestowed a posthumous title of Yuanxian (Yuanxian). Song Ying's lineage inscribed the stele as "the stele of loyalty, regulation and morality".

Historical evaluation
Xia song: the Song Dynasty was the number one scholar and the Song Dynasty was the prime minister. The Song Dynasty was out of reach, but it had to be strict.
Cai Xiang: in the song and Yuan Dynasties, the gentleness of the emperor Xiangong is striking, while Jing Wenying's hair is beautiful. If you look at it for a long time, there is no dust at all. It's a real fairy.
Wang Yao: Yu huangrenzong, received by tianyijun. Which one is the best. The emperor said, "you are here, and you want to be archaeologist.". The Duke has the inheritance, not far from Yao and Yu. With Shi Weihe, Sheng Fu is the people. Public classics, muscle to Zhao people. Who does not come from, the public will be prime minister. Don't show Zheng Gong's expectation. At the beginning of the year, he retired. If I disobey the law, I will be the first to listen to it. It is the chapter of baohongfu, the first product. There is a stingy inquiry, according to the Sutra. The emperor's death is like the emperor's throne. Chi Zhang Ran Ran, in order to Zhaogong trace. It's not only the Duke of tin, but also the head of spleen. The meaning of Wei stele is on the right of Xu. Secondly, there are not many poems. To see future generations, then to sing forever.
Wang said: Xiang is thrifty and thrifty, does not like sound and color, and never sleeps when he is old.
Chen Zhiqiang: between Jinghu, since the national Dynasty, Anzhou has been Wangjun. Famous officials and great ministers emerged one after another. Yuan Xian, Jing Wen and song Gong Bo Zhong are also outstanding.
Tuotuo: between Ping and Tian Sheng, the father, son and brother were famous for their contributions to the times, which were seen in Chen yaozuo and song Xiang Xiang Ming practice, although Wenzao does not catch Qi, lonely elegant, over Qi far away. The gentleman thinks that Chen's family law and song's friends love each other, which is rare since Song Dynasty!
Emperor Qianlong: Song Xiang and Song Qi brothers were both well-known and promoted Jinshi. They were called both big and small Song Dynasty. It was his official position, one to Zaifu, one to Shangshu. There are differences in the nature of a career, as well as extravagance and frugality. Therefore, Shen Bo's poems and essays are widely read by the world because they are close to each other.
Ji Yun et al: the famous chapters and sentences in ran Ji (collection of the constitution of the song and Yuan Dynasties) are numerous, and they are not only several couplets. The works of many pavilions and pavilions are all elegant and magnificent, which are the voice of governing the world. It's very bad to cover articles for five seasons. In the Northern Song Dynasty, every family rose up to recover the old Tang Dynasty. Mu Xiu and Liu Kai, as well as Yin Zhu and Ouyang Xiu, went back to Korea and Liu Zhibo. The Xiang brothers, on the other hand, drove Yan and Xu. For example, Jia, Dong, Mei and Ma had different systems, and they were the most prosperous in Hanjing. It's not necessary to talk about sweetness instead of bitterness. It's Dan instead of Su. Chen Zhensun said that "Jing Wenqing is solemn, and does not arrest his brother, so as not to be a public assistant.". Today, there is a deep and profound atmosphere in his collection, and Qi duo's thinking of new police is quite different.
Qian Jibo: first, the articles of the Song Dynasty are mostly from the Tang Dynasty, but they all originated from Li Shangyin. From Yang Yi, Liu Yun and Qian Weiyan of Xikun in the early Song Dynasty to Xiang of the Song Dynasty, brothers Qi, Xia song, Hu Su and Wang Yao, their Ci Poems are elegant but mediocre, which inherits the decadence of the Tang people and fails to bring forth new ideas. ② Yan Lian steady said that his poem covered Yang Yi. However, Yang Yi's words are elegant. Xiang is gentle, full of sorrow.
Anecdotes and allusions

Later, before the dream, the people in Zhuyi brought a Book of literary selections with them, so they gave birth to Jingwen, so they chose brother in small characters.
The stepmother of song and Yuan Dynasties is Zhu's family. Yuanxian and Zhongshi Jingwen studied in Anlu and lived in poverty. At the winter solstice, he called people to drink. Yuan Xian said, "there is nothing for the festival. Only one or two pieces of silver were wrapped on the scabbard of the ancestors to celebrate the festival." Nai said with a smile: "in the winter solstice, you should eat the scabbard, and in the new year's day, you should eat the sword ear." Yu Xianjun didn't take the next seat. He tasted and said, "Guan ERGONG lives in poverty. Yan laughs freely. It's better to enjoy fame and position later."

In the Song Dynasty, in the suburb of the Song Dynasty (i.e. the original name of Xiangwei), di Qi, a native of yongqiu, was a Jinshi in the early days of tianshengchu. At that time, a monk said, "the Song Dynasty is the leader of the world, and the Song Dynasty is also the leader of the imperial examination." A few days later, when the monk saw the suburb, he said, "Why are you covered with Yin lines? It seems that you have saved tens of thousands of lives." Jiao said: "only a few days ago saw ants flooded, play will be bamboo bridge across it." The monk said, "that is to say, to be the leader of the world." Later, there was Zhang Xian, the empress dowager, who didn't want to give up her brother. If so. Later generations built a bridge to commemorate song Xiang's deeds of saving ants, named Duyi bridge.

" Renzong's order to change it was to change its name to Xiang, the word Gong Xu.
Notes on Qingxiang
Xia Wenzhuang was in charge of Anzhou, and the brothers of Duke Ju in Song Dynasty were in charge of cloth clothes. Wenzhuang gave them different treatment and ordered them to write a poem about falling flowers. Duke Ju wrote in a couplet: "the Han Dynasty's gaopei was cold and lost along the river, and the golden Valley tower was empty and fragrant." A couplet of Zijing said: "I'll fly back to the wind, but I'm still half gone
