Xie An was born into the Xie family of Chenjun, a famous family.

The Xie family, like the Wang family, was a large family of aristocratic families during the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

In this society where "there are no poor men at the top and no nobles at the bottom", Xie An was calm in his childhood, his mind was quick, his demeanor was smooth, and he was good at running script.

When Xie An was young, he was valued by famous scholar Wang Meng and prime minister Wang Dao, and he already enjoyed a high reputation in the upper class.

However, Xie An did not want to rely on his background and fame to obtain high-ranking officials and generous salaries.

The court initially summoned Xie An to Situ's Mansion and appointed him as the author of the bookmaker, but Xie An refused on the pretext of being sick.

Later, Xie An, who refused to respond to the call, simply lived in seclusion in Dongshan, Kuaiji County, and frequently interacted with famous scholars, including Wang Xizhi, Xu Xun, Zhi Daolin, and other famous monks. He went out and fished and hunted, and recited poems and essays when he returned home, but he did not want to be an official.

Although Xie An repeatedly refused to come out of the mountain, he kept hiding in the mountains and forests.

In the third year of Shengping, Xie Wan was dismissed as a commoner.

This incident greatly threatened the power of Xie's family. Xie An began to have the ambition to be an official since then. He was already in his forties at that time.

Xie An, who became an official, devoted himself to assisting the government and worked hard for the royal family.

In May of the fifth year of Taiyuan, Xie An was appointed as General of the Wei for his merits, and was appointed as the third corps of the Ministry of Education and the Duke of Fengjianchang County.

In 383 AD, Fu Jian led an army known as one million to the south, aiming to swallow up the Eastern Jin Dynasty and unify the world.

The military situation was critical at that time, and Jiankang was in shock, but Xie An was still calm and responsible for the military as the commander-in-chief of the expedition. He also sent Xie Shi, Xie Xuan, Xie Yan and Huan Yi to lead 80,000 troops to resist.

We all know the story later.

Fu Jian was defeated by the grass and trees.

When the Jin army's victory of defeating the Former Qin in the Battle of Feishui arrived, Xie An was playing chess with the guests.

After reading the good news, he placed it next to his seat and continued to play chess quietly.

The guest couldn't help but ask him, and Xie An said lightly: "It's nothing, the children have defeated the enemy."

It was not until after the chess and the guest said goodbye that Xie An could not suppress the joy in his heart. He jumped into the room and broke the teeth of the clogs on the bottom of the clogs.

The victory of the Battle of Feishui brought Xie An's reputation to its peak.

He was appointed as the Taibao for his achievements in the presidential army.

After the Battle of Feishui, Xie Angong was shocked by the Lord, and a rift gradually arose between him and Emperor Xiaowu.

In April of the tenth year of Taiyuan, Xie An took the initiative to hand over the power of the war on the excuse of rescuing Fu Jian, and asked himself to leave Buqiu, which was in Guangling, to build a new city to avoid disaster.

In August of the same year, Xie An died of illness in Jiankang at the age of 66.

...

"Xie An was both civil and martial, smart and calm. He made great contributions in the Battle of Feishui, and also made great contributions to the delay of Huan Wen. The two great contributions were contributions to maintaining unity."

"Xie An not only has outstanding military and political talents, but also elegant and versatile. He is known as "Xie An" in the world. This is rare for a powerful minister who has a status second only to the emperor. No wonder Qi Yuan wrote, "Jiangzuo Prime Minister Xie An'er is the only one in the world."

"Xie An is actually good at educating children. One day it snowed heavily, and Xie An asked his nephews what the snow seemed like? Nephew Xie Lang said that the sky was sprinkled with salt. Niece Xie Daoyun said that it was not as good as willow catkins rising due to the wind. Xie Daoyun, a talented woman, can be regarded as a woman who is inferior to men."

"The victory of the Battle of Feishui was a very, very critical victory in the history of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. This means that the exquisite culture represented by the gentry was preserved, and it was also the pinnacle of the political politics of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Xie An's style of chatting and laughing and calmness can be said to be a typical example of the romantic style of the Wei and Jin Dynasties."

"The Xie family of Chen County and the Wang family of Langya are the two most prestigious families recognized by the Eastern Jin gentry. However, unlike the Wang family of Langya that was prominent in the Western Jin Dynasty, the Xie family rose very late, and until the early Eastern Jin Dynasty, they were not valued by the scholar class."

"I'll just add a sentence, I want to see the original work of Wang Xizhi's "Preface to the Lanting Collection"!"

"Look at the hammer, this is the story compiled by Qi Yuan. Who can write this kind of calligraphy?"

"In ancient times, the so-called generals and talents were called Confucian generals, great generals, talent generals, and war generals. Le Yi, Yang Hu, Zhuge Liang, Xie An and others were Confucian generals."

"The unprecedented harmonious atmosphere within the Eastern Jin Dynasty was inseparable from Xie An's complete inheritance of Wang Dao's efforts to balance the power among the clans."

"Xie An wanted to take a concubine, but was afraid of it. His nephews thought of a way to write a poem during the party, and satirized Mrs. Xie with the words "The doves are singing in the river island, the beautiful ladies are the kindness of gentlemen."

But Mrs. Xie is also the sister of the famous scholar Liu Fan. She was a talented woman in the world. She had met many famous scholars in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and chatted with Wang Xizhi and others, and was nowhere to be taller than her nephews. So she smiled faintly and said, "If you let the Zhou man write a poem, you will not have this."

Duke Zhou is a man, so he likes to pursue ladies everywhere. Think about it, if Grandma Zhou wrote this poem, what do you think she would write it?"

"I feel that Xie An just grasped the mentality of Heng Wen's desire to be xx and I tried to become xx, so I persuaded him."

"Is aristocratic politics better than monopolizing the imperial power?"

"Why did Xie An protect the bad Jin Dynasty? He directly let Heng Wen usurp the throne, relieve his worries, and concentrate on the Northern Expedition, wouldn't it be good to concentrate on the Northern Expedition?"

"Of course there is no doubt about Xie An's talent, but before Xie An came out of the mountain, the basic foundation of the Xie family was already destroyed in Xie Shang's hands."

"I think Xie An's only mistake is to support the Sima Royal Family. Sima Yao and Sima Dao are really bad! In just a few years, it has ruined the Eastern Jin Dynasty."

"Yes, Xie An should be independent!"

"Xie An is not only the most suitable for being a husband, but also for being a friend, a father, a son, a colleague, a leader, and a subordinate. The only identity he is not suitable for is probably the enemy."

"Only Wang Meng, the good minister in Guanzhong, I hope Xie An will be the people of the world!"

"Why do some people beat Xie An while trampling on Zhuge Liang? I'm convinced."

"The confusing Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, and the romantic Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties.

Qi Yuan's book has so many characters and complex stories, it can be regarded as unique to China.

Every character has his storyline, countless lines, like bead curtains, strung one by one, beautiful!”

...

...

In addition to recording "Chinese Restaurant" every day, Qi Yuan's greatest pleasure is to watch everyone's speeches online and discuss "Two Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties".

There are so many articles posted by everyone, many of which are well written.

This is enough to show that the cultural literacy of readers in Qi Yuan’s "Five Thousand Years" series is very good.

Soon, Qi Yuan noticed an article.

"You are all talking about politics and famous generals, so I will take you to see the poems of this era? Look at how awesome the poems written by Qi Yuan are?"

...

...

In Qi Yuan's writing, we can see that the Jian'an literati broke the unified situation where the verse and verse were unique for more than 400 years since the Han Dynasty.

They proposed that five-character poems are "the key to literary poetry".

The representatives of this period include the three fathers and sons of the Cao family (Cao, Pi, Zhi, and Jian'an.

I don’t know how many people have read Cao Cao’s short songs carefully, and they have written them so well.

When drinking and singing, how much life is. It is like morning dew, and the past is full of suffering...

This is the most energetic and my favorite song in my mind.

Imagine that Cao Gong pacified the north and personally led an army of 800,000 to drink horses from the Yangtze River. If there were no accidents, he would purge the world and unify China.

In such a scene, he wrote this song in front of the soldiers, seeking talent and peace in the world.

The vastness of the world in his heart is evident.

A person's courage is not in the words of generous and loyalty, but a powerful heart reflected between the lines.

...

After Jian'an style, it is the sound of Zhengshi.

The biggest feature of the style of the righteous voice is the simple talk.

The style of Qing Dynasty talk began with the Zhengshi of Wei.

In the year of Wei Zhengshi, he asked that at that time, He Yan and Wang Bi were the leaders, and the Laozi and Zhuangzi thoughts were combined with Confucian classics, discussing the mystery and analyzing the principles, being unruly and unrestrained, not practical, and having a clear talk about the difference. His style was in the prosperous Luo River, but it did not go into the Jin Dynasty.

The representative figures in the past are probably the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest.

There are also some five-character poems in the middle, which are meaningless.

But what I like very much and I also recommend it to you. I think the most accomplished ones include Xie Lingyun’s landscape poems and Tao Yuanming’s pastoral poems.

The poems of the two people are well written.

Although Tao Yuanming's family was poor, he gained unprecedented satisfaction in nature.

Appreciating the beauty of nature has become the happiest thing in his life.

The countless depressions in his heart were all resolved between the sounds of mountains, rivers and nature.

After he entered the official career, he always faced tremendous pressure and was at a loss in the officialdom.

At this time, he discovered that only nature and only the pastoral life in his hometown are what he needs and wants.

then.

"I have no customary rhyme at a young age, and I love hills and mountains. I accidentally fell into the dust net and passed away for thirty years. The birds were detained in the old forest, the fish ponds and fish thought of the old abyss, and opened up the wilderness in the south, and returned to the garden and fields."

In nature, he felt unprecedented freedom and ease. The beautiful nature created his poetry.

In our increasingly inclined era, Tao Yuanming's life is really desirable.

"I feel that Tao Yuanming is a noble and cowardly person, so he chose to keep himself alone."
