When did Wang Bo write the preface to King Teng s Pavilion?

Writing background] Wang Bo, Zi'an. One of the "Four Masters of the Early Tang Dynasty", he is rarely famous and has a long history of poetry. "Teng Wang Pavilion Fu" is his masterpiece, and it is also a popular masterpiece.

Writing this article, it was Wang Bo on the way to explore his father, passing through Nanchang, coinciding with the rebuilding of the Tengwang Pavilion by Yan Gong, the prefect of Hongdu Prefecture, and came to his banquet. The following year, Wang Bo accidentally fell into the water and died at the age of 27 when he crossed the sea.

From the last sentence, it can be inferred that he is 26 years old.

How could it be 28....He died at the age of 27.

In 675 A.D., in order to celebrate the completion of the new pavilion of King Teng, he promised that the Duke of Yan would be a guest at the meeting on September 9 and let his son-in-law Wu Zizhang write a preface to show his name. Yan Gongchu left the table angrily in the name of "changing clothes", and the special meeting was attended by someone to write it. When he first heard that "Yuzhang Ancient County, Hongdu New Mansion", Yan Gong felt that "it is also a cliché"; Next, "the stars are divided into wings, and the ground is connected to Henglu", when the public hears it, it is silent; As for the sentence "Luoxia and lonely birds fly together, and the autumn water grows together in the sky".

There are two theories about the time of creation of the Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng. One of them is the "Tang Jiayan" written by Wang Dingbao in the late Tang Dynasty and the fifth dynasty, saying: "Wang Bo wrote the "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng", when he was fourteen.

At that time, Wang Bo's father may have served as the commander of Liuhe County, and Wang Bo went to Liuhe and passed through Hongzhou. In this preface, there is a saying "how do children know, bow to victory", which can also be corroborated. The second is the Yuan Dynasty Xin Wenfang's "Biography of Tang Caizi", which believes that the "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng" was made when Wang Bo visited his father in Jiaozhi and passed by Nanchang in the second year of the previous Yuan Dynasty.

In the autumn of the second year of Shangyuan, Wang Bo went to Jiaozhi to visit his father, when passing through Nanchang, he was catching up with the governor Yan Boyu to repair the Tengwang Pavilion and feast the guests in the Tengwang Pavilion, Wang Bo went to meet him, Yan Dudu had already heard of his fame, so he invited him to participate in the banquet, Yan Dudu this banquet was to boast to everyone about the talent of his son-in-law Meng Bachelor, so that the son-in-law could accompany him to prepare a preface in advance, and he would be used as an improvised writing for everyone to see during the banquet. At the banquet, Yan Dudu asked people to take out a pen and paper, pretending to ask everyone to make a preface to this grand event, everyone knew his intentions, so they all refused to write, and Wang Bo, a young junior in his twenties, took the pen and paper without refusal, and wrote in public.

The preface to King Teng's Pavilion was written by Wang Bo when he was twenty-five years old.

In 676 AD, at the age of 36, Wang Bo went to visit his father, who was a county magistrate, in Jiaochi (in present-day Vietnam). When passing through Hongdu (now Nanchang, Jiangxi), the governor Yan Boyu was scheduled to feast on the Chung Yeung Festival on September 9 for the completion of the rebuilt Tengwang Pavilion.

His son-in-law Wu Zizhang was very literate, and Yan Boyu asked him to write a preface in advance so that he could show off in public.

Wang Bo was a well-known scribe at the time, and he was also invited. At the banquet, Yan Boyu pretended to be a liquid swimmer and invited the guests to make a preface for King Teng's Pavilion. Everyone was unprepared in advance, so they didn't make excuses.

When Wang Bo was invited, he did not shirk, and waved the book on the spot, and wrote the famous "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng", and the guests unanimously praised it.

Yan Boyu also admired it deeply after reading it, and thought that this preface was much more clever than that written by his daughter Duan Zhutong's son-in-law, so he no longer let Wu Zizhang appear to write the article.

It was built in the fourth year of Yonghui in the Tang Dynasty (653), and was repaired by Li Yuanying, the younger brother of Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, when he served as the governor of Hongzhou in the south of the Yangtze River.

The existing building was reconstructed in 1985; It is famous for the "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng" written by Wang Bo, a poet in the early Tang Dynasty; It is one of the four famous buildings in ancient China, one of the "top ten historical and cultural buildings in China", and is known as the "first building in Xijiang".

Allusion:

On the ninth day of the ninth month of September in the second year of the Tang Dynasty (675), Yan Boxi, the capital of Hongzhou, feasted guests in this pavilion, and originally planned to write the preface of the pavilion by his son-in-law, preparing to show off his literary talents to everyone. Coincidentally, Wang Bo went all the way to Jiaozhi to visit his father, passed through Hongzhou, and also participated in Yan Boxi's banquet. Yan Boyu pretended to be polite and asked Wang Bo to write a preface, but this talented man did not shirk and wrote in an instant.

At the beginning of the time, the governor was very unhappy, left the table and sighed, and waited until someone told him that good sentences came out one after another, and then turned his worries into joy. Since the eternal quatrain of "Luoxia and the lonely bird fly together, the autumn water is the same color as the sky", the text is full of surprise, and Yan Boyu is also overjoyed, so the "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng" has become a famous article. At that time, the Tengwang Pavilion was nine zhang high, a total of 3 floors, the pavilion was eight zhang and six feet long from east to west, four zhang and five feet wide from north to south, there were two pavilions, the south was called "pressing the river", the north was called "Rucui".

Later, the "Ying'en Pavilion" was added, which was the place to receive the edict and worship the emperor. There are poems, tablets, pictures, etc. in the pavilion. Wang Bo's "Preface to King Teng's Pavilion" "King Teng's high pavilion is in Jiangzhu, and Pei Yuming Luan sings and dances."

The painting hall flies to the south of the clouds, and the bead curtain rolls up in the west mountain rain at dusk. The shadow of Xianyuntan is long, and the stars change a few degrees of autumn. Where is the emperor in the cabinet now?

The Yangtze River outside the threshold is empty and artesian. "Also hanging in the pavilion. Nowadays, the scenery of Tengwang Pavilion is far better than in the past.

There is a 1,800-meter-long green belt along the river between Nanpu Park and Tengwang Pavilion, and there is a green sandbar on the west side of Your Excellency, which is the "Jiangzhu" in the poem. And look down at the Ganjiang River, sparkling, opposite to the west mountain across the bank, in the twilight, occasionally see the crane flying in the meantime, this is the scenery of "the sunset and the lonely bird fly together, the autumn water is the same color of the sky". The original eight views of Hongzhou, such as "Nanpu Feiyun", "Zhangjiang Xiaodu", "Longsha Sunset" and other landscapes are still there.

If you climb the pavilion at the turn of spring and summer, you can see the five old peaks of Lushan Mountain and Dari Mountain.
