Born in Luling, Jizhou (now Ji 'an, Jiangxi), Sun Yun was originally named Tianxiang. After Gong was selected, he changed to Tianxiang's famous saying. Bao You won the first prize in four years (1256), and was later renamed Song Rui and Wenshan. He has successively been a judge in Zhongshu, an official to the Navy, a Langguan in the Ministry of Punishment, a Langguan in Jiangxi, a Langguan in Shangshu, a Lingguan in Hunan and a Langguan in Ganzhou.
In the first month of the first year of Deyou, Song Gongdi (1275), due to the massive attack of the Yuan army, the defense line of the Yangtze River in Song Jun collapsed, and the imperial court ordered various places to organize military forces and soldiers to be loyal to him. Wen Tianxiang immediately donated his fortune as a military expense, recruited local heroes, and formed a rebel army of more than 10,000 people to go to Lin 'an. In Song Dynasty, Wen Tianxiang was appointed as the magistrate of Pingjiang Prefecture, ordered to send troops to rescue Changzhou, and then ordered him to rescue Shangguan alone. Because of the fierce offensive of the Yuan Army, Jiangxi rebels fought bravely, but failed to stop the Yuan Army in the end.
In the first month of the following year, the Yuan army arrived in Lin 'an, and civil and military officials fled. Empress Xie appointed Wen Tianxiang as the right prime minister and special envoy of the Tang Dynasty, and sent him out of the city to negotiate in an attempt to make peace with the Yuan Army. Wen Tianxiang arrived at the Yuan Army Camp, but was detained by Bo Yan. Seeing that the tide had run out, Empress Xie had to give up the city and surrender to the Yuan Army.
The Yuan Army occupied Lin 'an, but Huaihe River, Jiangnan, Fujian and Guangxi were not completely controlled and occupied by the Yuan Army. So, Bo Yan tried to seduce Wen Tianxiang and use his reputation to clean up the mess as soon as possible. Wen Tianxiang would rather die than surrender, so Bo Yan had to escort him to the north. In Zhenjiang, Wen Tianxiang ventured to escape. After many difficulties and obstacles, he arrived in Fuzhou on May 26th in the first year of Jingyan (1276) and was conquered by Zhao Duan of the Song Dynasty. Be appointed as the right prime minister.
Wen Tianxiang was extremely dissatisfied with Zhang Shijie's autocratic politics and disagreed with Chen, so he left the Southern Song Dynasty and set up a government in Nanjian House (now Nanping, Fujian) as the same governor, commanding the anti-Yuan. Soon, Wen Tianxiang successively moved to Tingzhou (now Changting, Fujian), Longyan, Zhangzhou, Meizhou and other places, making contact with the anti-Yuan rebels in various places and persisting in the struggle. In the summer of the second year of Jingyan (1277), Wen Tianxiang led troops from Meizhou to attack Jiangxi. After Yidu (now Du Yu, Jiangxi Province) won a great victory, Ganzhou was heavily attacked and Jizhou (now Ji 'an, Jiangxi Province) was attacked, and many counties were recovered successively. In Yuan Dynasty, Xuanwei of Jiangxi made Hengli launch a counterattack in Xingguo County. Wen Tianxiang was defeated, conquered the remnants and retreated to Zhou Xun (the old rule was in Longxi, Guangdong). In the summer of the first year of Xiangxing (1278), Wen Tianxiang learned that the Southern Song Dynasty was moving its capital to Korea? Shan, in order to get out of trouble, he asked to lead an army to meet with the Southern Song Dynasty. Due to Zhang Shijie's resolute opposition, Wen Tianxiang had to give up and lead the army back to Chaoyang County. In the winter of the same year, the Yuan Army launched a massive attack, and Wen Tianxiang was attacked by Zhang Hongfan, a general of the Yuan Army, on his way to Haifeng, and was defeated and captured.
Wen Tianxiang attempted suicide by taking poison and was taken to Zhang Hongfan? Shan, let him write to Zhang Shijie. Wen Tianxiang said: "I can't even protect my parents. How can I teach others to betray their parents?" Zhang Hongfan didn't listen, and repeatedly forced Wen Tianxiang to write. Wen Tianxiang also copied a poem he wrote a few days ago, Crossing Ding Yang, to Zhang Hongfan. Zhang Hongfan read the sentence "Who has not died since ancient times, keeping the heart of Dan in history", and couldn't help but be moved, so he stopped persecuting Wen Tianxiang.
In the Southern Song Dynasty? After the mountain perished, Zhang Hongfan asked Yuan Shizu how to deal with Wen Tianxiang. Yuan Shizu said, "Who has no loyal minister?" Zhang Hongfan was ordered to be polite to Wen Tianxiang, and Wen Tianxiang was sent to Dadu (now Beijing), where he was placed under house arrest and determined to surrender to Wen Tianxiang.
First, Liu Qu, the former prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty who surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty, explained Wen Tianxiang's appearance and advised him to surrender. When Wen Tianxiang saw Liu's great anger, Liu had to leave angrily. Also let Zhao down, who dropped Yuan? Persuade surrender. Wen Tianxiang north knelt on the ground, crying, to zhao? He said, "Please come back!" Zhao? Nothing to say, angry. Yuan Shizu was furious and ordered to tie Wen Tianxiang's hands and put on a wooden cangue. Put him in a military cell. Wen Tianxiang stayed in prison for more than ten days before the jailer let him go: it was another half month before he took off his wooden yoke.
Kyle Polo, the prime minister of the Yuan Dynasty, personally held a trial to interrogate Wen Tianxiang. Wen Tianxiang was taken to the hall of the Privy Council, towering away, just bowed to Kyle Poirot. Kyle Poirot called on Wen Tianxiang to kneel. Wen Tianxiang struggled to sit on the ground and never gave in. Kyle Poirot asked Wen Tianxiang, "What do you have to say now? Wen Tianxiang replied, "There are ups and downs in the world. The destruction and slaughter of the country have occurred throughout the ages. I am loyal to Song, and I only want to die early! " Marco flew into a rage and said, "Are you going to die? I won't let you die. I want to detain you! Wen Tianxiang was not afraid, saying, "I would rather die for justice than be imprisoned! 」
From then on, Wen Tianxiang spent three years in prison. In prison, he received a letter from his daughter Liu Niang and learned that his wife and two daughters were slaves in the palace and lived like prisoners. Wen Tianxiang knew that her daughter's letter was a hint from Yuan Ting: as long as she surrendered, her family could be reunited. However, Wen Tianxiang doesn't want to lose his integrity because of his wife and daughter, although his heart ached. In his letter to his sister, he said, "I am very sad to receive a letter from Miss Liu. Who has no wife, children, flesh and blood? But now, it is a kind of life to die without hesitation. what can I do? What a pity! ..... can make Liu Nv and Huan Nv become good people, but dad can't. Tears streamed down her face. 」
Prison life was hard, but Wen Tianxiang endured the pain and wrote many poems. Immortal masterpieces such as the third volume of the Guide and Song of Justice were all written in prison.
In the 19th year of Yuan Shizu Zhiyuan (1282), the powerful minister Ahema was assassinated. Yuan Shizu ordered Ahema to lose his family fortune, investigated Ahema's sin, and appointed Heli Huosun as the right prime minister. Li and Hawthorne put forward the idea of governing the country by Confucianism, which was recognized by Yuan Shizu. In August, Yuan Shizu asked the minister, "Who are the prime ministers of the South and the North? The ministers replied: "The northerners are like Lu Ye Chu Cai, and the southerners are like Wen Tianxiang." So, Yuan Shizu issued an order, intending to award Wen Tianxiang a high-ranking official. Some of Wen Tianxiang were demoted to Yuan's old friends, and immediately informed Wen Tianxiang about it and persuaded Wen Tianxiang to surrender, but Wen Tianxiang refused. 1February 8th, Yuan Shizu summoned Wen Tianxiang and surrendered himself. Wen Tianxiang is still bowing to Yuan Shizu. Yuan Shizu didn't force him to kneel. He just said, "You've been here for a long time. If you can change your mind and be loyal to me in the Song Dynasty, I can give you a position in Zhongshu Province. Wen Tianxiang replied, "I am the Prime Minister of DaSong. The country is dead, and I just want to die quickly. It won't be long. " Yuan Shizu asked again, "What do you want?" Wen Tianxiang replied: "Death is enough!" Yuan Shizu was so angry that he ordered Wen Tianxiang to be executed immediately.
The next day, Wen Tianxiang was escorted to Chai Shikou execution ground. The beheading officer asked, "What else does the Prime Minister have to say? Calling back will save you from death. " Wen Tianxiang shouted, "If you die, you die. What else can you say? " He asked the prison officer, "which side is the south?" Someone showed him the direction, and Wen Tianxiang bowed down to the south and said, "My business is over, and my heart is clear! "So the neck is punished, easy to die. After his death, he found a poem in his belt: "Confucius said benevolence, Mencius said righteousness, only its righteousness is exhausted, and benevolence is the best." "What did you learn from reading sages' books? Every now and then, I have no conscience. " Wen Tianxiang died at the age of 47.
