The Summoner of the Battle of All Realms

Fusu opened the summoning card, and a whiteboard appeared in front of Fusu.

"Hey", Fusu was so distressed that he crushed the summoning card and turned it into dust and smoke.

Then, Fusu summoned again. This time, Fusu summoned successfully.

And summon a family and friend summoning card.

It's just that although the summoned characters are somewhat famous, they are not top-notch characters.

Their influence in literature is greater.

…

There are a total of eight people on the summoning card in Fusu's hand, half of which are blank.

What does this mean? It means that it has been summoned by Fusu, so it is in a blank position.

The characters summoned by Fusu were none other than the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties!

Although they do not belong to the same dynasty, they are brought together.

However, although Fusu was extremely lucky and summoned the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties, Fusu also lost an opportunity for "combination summoning".

So there are gains and losses.

…

The Eight Great Masters of Tang and Song Dynasty, also known as the Eight Great Masters of Classical Prose in Tang and Song Dynasties, is a collective name for the eight essayists Han Yu and Liu Zongyuan in the Tang Dynasty of China and Su Shi, Su Xun, Su Che, Ouyang Xiu, Wang Anshi and Zeng Gong in the Song Dynasty.

However, during the previous summons, Sansu had been summoned by Fusu, and had already served under Fusu, helping Fusu handle local government affairs and assisting Fusu.

Although some don't want to admit it, Sansu is not yet at the level to enter the central government in terms of politics.

Of course, if there is only one round of literary attainments, it is estimated that not many people can match Sansu.

Except Li Bai.

In addition to Sansu, Wang Anshi was also summoned by Fusu some time ago, but has not yet been reported to Fusu.

Don't know when it will appear.

So these four people are in a blank state, while the other four people are revealed on the summoning card.

They are Han Yu, Liu Zongyuan, Ouyang Xiu and Zeng Gong.

Among them, Han Yu and Liu Zongyuan were the leaders of the ancient prose movement in the Tang Dynasty; Ouyang Xiu and San Su were the core figures of the ancient prose movement in the Song Dynasty; Wang Anshi and Zeng Gong were the representatives of Linchuan literature.

The title of "Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties" first appeared in the early Ming Dynasty - Zhu You. He selected the humanities of Han Yu, Liu Zongyuan and others as the "Collected Works of Mr. Six". Since it was merged with the three Sus into the same family, it was actually the "Collected Works of Mr. Eight".

In the Wenbian compiled by Tang Shunzhi in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, only eight writers from the Tang and Song Dynasties were included. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Mao Kuncheng and his colleagues compiled a total of 160 volumes of "Eight Masters of Tang and Song Dynasties". This book was widely circulated in the old days, and the name "Eight Masters of Tang and Song Dynasties" also became popular.

…

Han Yu and Liu Zongyuan jointly initiated the "Ancient Prose Movement", so they were collectively called "Han Heyang Liu'an".

Han Yu and Liu Zongyuan rose to prominence during the reign of Zhenguan and the prosperous period of Kaiyuan in the Tang Dynasty, setting off the ancient prose movement, which made the prose of the Tang Dynasty reach its peak. At that time, ancient prose writers emerged in droves, forming the "ciren coughing".

Su Shi, Su Xun and Su Zhe are collectively called Sansu. Su Xun is the father of Su Shi and Su Zhe, and Su Shi is Su Zhe's brother. Ouyang Xiu was Su Shi's teacher. Wang Anshi and Zeng Gong also worshiped Ouyang Xiu as their teachers.

Therefore, the eight great masters of Tang and Song Dynasties are divided into two great masters of Tang Dynasty, namely Han Yu and Liu Zongyuan, and six great masters of Song Dynasty, namely Su Shi, Su Xun, Su Che, Ouyang Xiu, Zeng Gong and Wang Anshi.

The Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties were the central figures who presided over the ancient prose movement of the Tang and Song Dynasties. They advocated prose and opposed parallel prose, which exerted a profound influence on the literary world at that time and in later generations.

Sansu and Wang Anshi have already been introduced, so I won’t say more.

All four of them are extremely talented, not to mention their literary attainments, but in terms of politics, Sansu obviously cannot keep up with Wang Anshi.

At a certain period of time, Wang Anshi was a powerful official in the court and played an important role.

Although Wang Anshi's reform failed in the end, Wang Anshi's contribution and talent cannot be denied.

In addition to these four people, the other four people from the Eight Great Families of the Tang and Song Dynasties are also not ordinary people.

Han Yu, also known as Tuizhi, was a writer, philosopher, and thinker in the Tang Dynasty. In his later years, he served as Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, with the posthumous title "Wen", also known as Han Wen Gong.

He and Liu Zongyuan were both advocates of the ancient prose movement in the Tang Dynasty, advocating learning the prose language of the pre-Qin and Han Dynasties, breaking parallelism into prose, and expanding the expressive function of classical Chinese.

Su Shi of the Song Dynasty said that he "went down in eight generations of literature", that he was a man of great virtue who saved the world from drowning, that he was loyal to the wrath of his master, and that he bravely won the command of the three armies.

People in the Ming Dynasty praised him as the head of the eight great writers of prose in the Tang and Song dynasties, and together with Liu Zongyuan, he was called "Han Liu"; Du Mu put Korean writing alongside Du poetry, and called him "Du Shi Han Bi", with "Wen Jugong" and "Wen Zong of the Hundred Generations" The name.

He is the author of "Shi Shuo" and so on. He is the one who wrote "People are not born with knowledge, how can they be free from confusion?"

In addition, Han Yu is also a master of language. He is good at using the words of his predecessors, and pays attention to the refinement of contemporary spoken language, creating many new sentences, such as "adding insult to injury", "easily blamed", "chaotic", etc.

Han Yu is a landmark figure who respected Confucianism and opposed Buddhism.

Chapter 1022 One of the Eight Immortals of Shangdong—Han Xiangzi, a legend among the people

Of course, in addition to these, Han Yu also has a very awesome nephew, that is Han Xiangzi, one of the legendary Eight Immortals.

Han Xiangzi left more legends than Han Yu, which were more famous and widespread among the people. It was even written into the story of "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea".

Children know about the Eight Immortals, but they don’t know about Han Yu.

Of course, Han Yu also left many legends and stories, but he is not as famous as his nephew.

According to rumors, after Han Yu came to Chaozhou, he met a monk on the street one day. He had a very ferocious appearance, especially the two tusks sticking out of his mouth. Han Yu thought that this was definitely not a good person, and he wanted to knock off his tusks. tooth.

When Han Yu returned to the office, the gatekeeper brought a red envelope and said it was from a monk.

Han Yu opened it and saw a pair of tusks inside, which were exactly the same as the monk's two tusks.

He thought, I wanted to knock out his teeth, but I didn't say it. How did he know it?

Han Yu immediately sent people to look for the monk everywhere.

After meeting and talking, Han Yu found out that he was the famous monk Dadian of Lingshan Temple in Chaozhou and a knowledgeable man. Han Yu felt ashamed that he could judge others by their appearance and hurriedly apologized to him.

From then on, the two became good friends. In order to commemorate the friendship between Han Yu and monk Dadian, later generations built a nunnery in the city called "Kingchi Nunnery".

…

When Han Yu was demoted to Chaozhou as governor, there was a river in Chaozhou at that time. There were many man-eating crocodiles in the river, which became a local pest. Many people who crossed the river were eaten by them.

One day, another commoner was killed. Han Yu was worried: If the crocodile is not eliminated, there will be endless troubles.

So Han Yu ordered the preparation of sacrifices and decided to go to the riverside in person to set up an altar to sacrifice the crocodile. After Han Yu laid out the sacrifices, he shouted loudly to the river: "Crocodile! Crocodile! Han came here to serve as an official in order to benefit the people. But you are making trouble here. Now you are restricted to lead your own people within three days." If you want to go to sea, the time limit can be extended to five days, or even seven days. If you don't leave within seven days, you will be severely punished."
