It was Lu You's ambition at the age of twenty to "mount a horse and attack Hu Kuang, dismount and write a book". In his life, no matter how the external environment changed, no matter how he drifted from place to place, he always adhered to this belief. In order to resist the great cause of gold, I will be demoted many times, and my reputation will be affected.

1 153, Lu You was twenty-nine years old and went to the capital Lin 'an (now Hangzhou) to take the imperial examination. In the initial test, he ranked first in Guangdong and Zhejiang. However, in the second year's re-examination, he ranked ahead of the traitor Qin Gui's grandson. On weekdays, he likes to talk about recovering lost land. Qin Gui stood in the way and was removed from the name. However, he is not depressed. After returning to his hometown, he studied the art of war, studied hard and prepared to resist Jin Weiguo. It was not until a few years later that Qin Gui died that he was used as the princess book of Ningde County in Fuzhou and started his official career.

After Song Xiaozong ascended the throne, the hawk faction gained power in North Korea, and Lu You was also recommended to North Korea because he was good at words and sentences and familiar with allusions. Xiaozong read his article and thought that he was magnificent and brilliant, so he was given the background of Jinshi and transferred to the Privy Council (a military defense agency) to edit and write. At this time, Lu You's main battle position was more distinct, and he put forward many strategies to recover lost ground unabashedly, which was also appreciated by Xiao Zong. However, Xiaozong is not a truly promising emperor. He is only interested in Lu You's ideas and has no intention of seriously implementing them. Lu You wrote about cronyism in North Korea and advocated political reform. In the end, the emperor Lao Zi was unhappy and was sent to Zhenjiang and Longxing (now Nanchang, Jiangxi) to be a judge (deputy magistrate). However, things are not over yet. Soon after, the Northern Expedition of Song Dynasty failed, and a humiliating peace treaty was signed with Xu Jin again. The pacifists in Korea once again gained the upper hand and began to investigate the responsibility of the war factions. Lu You was also labeled as "advocating right and wrong, urging the use of troops to resist gold", was dismissed and went home to be idle.

He stayed at home for five years, and it was not until 1 170 that Lu You was forty-six years old that he was appointed as the general of Kuizhou (now Fengjie, Sichuan) by the court. I stayed in Kuizhou for less than a year, and at the invitation of Sichuan Ambassador Wang Yan, I went to help Wang Yan manage military affairs. Ambassador Yifu of Sichuan was stationed in Hanzhong, Shaanxi, which was the front line of the Anti-Gold War. Wang Yan is a pragmatic and capable leader. They get along very well, which makes Lu You feel very excited. Finally, he can do something practical for the fight against the Golden War. He often wears a military uniform, rides a horse through the military defense zone in Hanzhong, and suffers hardships with the soldiers in front. However, the good times did not last long. Due to the interference of the peace faction, with Wang Yan transferred back to Lin 'an, Lu You was transferred to Chengdu as a leisure post in the appeasement department. Once again, the ideal of resisting gold and regaining lost ground became a bubble, and he could only pour his lofty sentiments, grief and indignation into his poems.

Later, Xiaozong saw Lu You's poems written in Sichuan and Shaanxi, lamented his rare ambition and talent, and called him to Lin 'an for an interview. After more than ten years, Lu You held some official positions in Fujian, Jiangxi, Zhejiang and other places. Although he is fat, he is far from achieving the goal of resisting gold. Because he has always insisted on the idea of resisting gold, which is not allowed by the powerful, he has never been reused.

But even so, Lu You did his best to do something good for the people.

When he was working in Jiangxi, there was a flood there. Although this is a matter for local officials, land travel can be managed or ignored. However, he "slept on the grass", personally inspected the disaster area, and opened the granary to help the victims, which made the authorities unhappy, was accused of "acting beyond his authority" and was blown back to his hometown.

Six years later, he was reused as Yanzhou (now Jiande, Zhejiang). After Guangzong acceded to the throne, he was transferred to North Korea as a doctor (director) of Ritual Department. However, despite several ups and downs, Lu You never changed his true colors of worrying about the country and the people, and even attached a letter requesting the imperial court to reduce taxes. As a result, he was beaten again and dismissed from office on charges of "mocking romantic"

Lu You lived in the Southern Song Dynasty. Although some ministers of North Korea do not want to be invaded by North Korea's nomads and the fall of the North, and many people enjoy peace, few people really want to go to war with Xu Jin. Occasionally, several warring factions came to power, but also failed because of insufficient preparation and hasty war. This further aggravates people's sense of ownership and fear of war. In this context, it is also decided that the land patrol of the Restoration of Music is bound to be bumpy and demoted frequently. However, Lu You has no regrets, and his efforts to resist gold and restore the Central Plains are above everything else in his mind. Until his later years, he still remembered, and he was still reciting poems before he died:

"When you die, you know everything is empty, and you see Kyushu's sorrow. Julian Waghann set the Central Plains Day in the north, and the family sacrifice did not forget to tell Nai Weng! "

This kind of spirit, this kind of mind, this kind of determination, this kind of death without regret, not mountain and not noble spirit.

Second, lament the ancient delusion that "although there are Mengshan mountains, it is difficult to entrust brocade books"

At the age of twenty, Lu You married her childhood cousin Tang Wan. They are like-minded, extremely loving, have a spring outing, enjoy snow in winter, have both talents and looks, and can write poems. They are really at ease, immersed in a happy and gentle country.

But it didn't last long. In just two years, Lu You's mother forced Lu You to divorce his wife, no matter how she begged.

So, why did Lu You's mother have to kick this daughter-in-law and her niece out? The main reason is that Tang Wan has no children.

Although Lu You remarried soon, Tang Wan remarried the scribe Zhao Shicheng. But their hearts are dead, leaving a lasting pain.

Therefore, when they met unexpectedly in Shenyuan five years later, the bitterness, the desire to talk and the silence were only known to the parties themselves.

It was a spring day, with light rain, dripping and lingering, hazy and like infiltration. Lu You strolled alone in the Shenyuan near the south concubine temple, and met Zhao Shicheng and Tang Wan unexpectedly, which was deeply touched. Zhao Shicheng is also a man of temperament, open-minded and generous, and deeply understands the fate of Tang Lu. When he learned that Tang Wan was going to buy wine for Lu You, he readily agreed and left under the pretext of letting the lovers do their best.

Suddenly it's a lifetime ago. What's to complain about? The two men sat silently opposite each other, recalling the past, caring for each other without words, mixed with sorrow and joy.

Looking at Tang Wan's emaciated face and thinking about their harmony, Lu You couldn't stand the bitterness and wrote a sentence on the wall:

Red crisp hands, Huangteng wine, Mancheng spring willow. Dong Feng Xie, who is in a bad mood, has been very depressed in recent years. No! No! No! Spring is as old as ever, people are empty and thin, and tears are full. Peach blossom falls, idle pool pavilion. Although Meng Shan is here, it is hard to trust Jin Shu. Mo! Mo! Mo!

I was in tears before I wrote it. Suppress sadness, barely finish writing, throw away a pen.

Tang Wan silently watching, silently watching, looking at the back of Lu You far away, pen and photo:

The world is thin, human feelings are evil, and it is easy to fall when the rain is sent late. The breeze is dry, the tears are gone, and I want to worry about it. Difficult! Difficult! Difficult! People become different, today is not yesterday, and sick souls are often thousands of miles away. The horn is cold and the night is hazy. I am afraid that others will ask questions, and I cry with joy. Hide. Hide. Hide.

Because of these two words, because of Lu Tang's love tragedy, this is an ordinary private garden, and Shenyuan has an eternal reputation.

This farewell has become a permanent strategy.

Soon, Tang Wan died of depression. Lu You will never forget this unforgettable love. Shenyuan has also become a place he yearns for and a knot in his heart. In later poems, I chanted it many times. The longer the time, the deeper my thoughts. Until more than eighty years old, still sleepwalking in Shen Yuan:

The road near the south of the city has been afraid to walk, and Shen Jiayuan's injury is even heavier. The fragrance wears plum blossoms on the guest sleeves, and the edge is soaked in the spring water of the temple bridge.

Who says heroes are heartless? Men don't flick their tears just because they haven't reached the sad place yet. Lu You's "Riding Crazy Song" is his true color, but he does not forget his old love, which is his deep affection.
