Zhu Ziqing is a modern essayist, Chinese educator, writer, poet, scholar and democratic fighter. The male character Peixian, formerly known as Zihua, was named Qiushi, and his pen names were Yu Jie, Bai Xiang, Baishui and Zhibai. Originally from Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, he was born in Donghai, Jiangsu Province in 1898, formerly known as Zhu Zihua, a native of Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province. He graduated from Peking University in 192 and later came to Tsinghua University to teach.
Because three generations have settled in Yangzhou, they graduated from the No.8 Middle School in Jiangsu (now Yangzhou Middle School) and worked as a teacher in Yangzhou, so they call themselves "Yangzhou people". He also taught in Taizhou Middle School, Zhejiang Province, and personally planted wisteria, which later became the school flower of Taizhou Middle School.
Zhu Ziqing's grandfather, Zhu Zeyu, whose real surname is Yu, changed his surname because he inherited Zhu's family. Being cautious, he served as a trial officer in Donghai County, Jiangsu Province for more than 1 years during Guangxu period of Qing Dynasty.
Zhu Ziqing lived in Yangzhou for 13 years and spent his childhood and adolescence here. His feelings about this life in the ancient city are subtle and complicated. Perhaps life is too monotonous, so he later said that childhood memories are only "thin shadows" and "like being washed by the flood, lonely to a shocking extent!" However, in the long and tortuous journey of life, childhood is, after all, the first "post station".
My father's name is Hongjun, and his word is Xiaopo. He married Zhou and was a scholar. In the 27th year of Guangxu (191), Hongjun Zhu went to Shaobo Town, Yangzhou Prefecture, from the East China Sea. Two years later, the whole family moved to Yangzhou City and settled in Yangzhou.
Zhu Ziqing entered the higher primary school in 1912, successfully entered the Peking University Preparatory School in 1916, and published his maiden poetry collection Sleep, Little Man in February 1919. Graduated from philosophy department of Peking University in 192.
In 1931, he studied in Britain and roamed Europe. After returning to China, he wrote Miscellaneous Notes on Europe. And took part in the activities of refusing to accept American relief food. He was originally suffering from stomach trouble, and he was even weaker. He finally died of poverty at the age of 5.

In 1988, Jiangsu Education Publishing House collected, sorted out and published six volumes of Zhu Ziqing's Complete Works. Although Zhu Ziqing began to write new poems after the May 4th Movement, the Qinhuai River in the Shadow of Paddles and Lights published in 1923 showed his talent in prose creation. From then on, he devoted himself to prose creation and made remarkable achievements. The documentary prose "Back" published in 1928 made Zhu Ziqing a famous prose writer at that time. His famous poetry collections include Trace, and his prose collections include Back, You and Me, Moonlight on the Lotus Pond and Haste, all of which are well-known masterpieces. Literary and artistic works include "Distinguishing Poems from Ambitions" and "Appreciating Elegance and Custom". There are also "Green" and "Spring".
