What is the reason why Tao Yuanming was dismissed from his post after more than 80 days in office?

I miss my hometown, I don't want to go against my will, and I don't want to bend my waist for five buckets of rice.

The life of officialdom is not what Tao Qian wants, the life he expects is a free and spiritual life, and the darkness of officialdom is not what Tao Qian is good at.

I don't want to bend my waist for five buckets of rice.

The rest of the family is poor, and the cultivation is not enough for self-sufficiency. The naïve room, the bottle acre is clear and there is no storage of millet, and the resources of life and life have not been seen. The relatives persuaded the rest to be the chief officials, and they had a way to get rid of their hearts and ask for it.

There will be things in the four directions, the princes will be virtuous with love, and the uncles will be poor and poor, so they will be used for Xiaoyi. At that time, the turmoil was not quiet, and Peng Ze went home for a hundred miles, and the benefits of the public land were enough for wine. So I asked for it.

The qualitative nature is natural, and it is not corrective. Although hunger and cold, he is sick against himself. Try to follow the personnel, all of them are self-serving. So he was generous and deeply ashamed of his life's ambition. If you still look forward to it, you will pass away. Xun Cheng's sister was mourned in Wuchang, and her love was in Junben, so she was exempted from her post.

The above explains the reason for resignation: natural nature, unable to adapt to officialdom life: my sister died and I had to go to the funeral.

1. This incident is clearly recorded in the Book of Jin. In the original book "The Legend of Tao Qian", there is the following record:

With the poverty of his own family, he started as a state sacrificial wine, and he was unbearable to serve as a servant, and he returned to his own country in a few days. The state summoned the main book, but he did not do it, and he cultivated and self-financed, so he embraced the disease. Reverted to the town army, Jianwei joined the army, said relatives and friends:

Talking about the song of the strings, do you think the three paths are worth it? When the deacon heard this, he thought it was Peng Zeling. In the county, Gongtian ordered the planting of rice grains, saying:

It is enough for me to be drunk all the time. "My wife insisted on planting japonica. He planted 50 acres of rice and 50 acres of japonica.

Su is simple and noble, and he is not a private official. The county sent the governor to the county, and the official Bai Ying saw it, and sighed: "I can't bend my waist for five buckets of rice, and my fists will be evil in the township!"

In the second year of Yixi, he went to the county without printing and gave "Return".

2. That is to say, in the autumn of the first year of Yixi (405 AD), his uncle Tao Kui introduced him to the post of Pengze County, and when he arrived eighty-one days ago, he met the post governor of Xunyang County, and the subordinate officials said that they should respectfully meet the inspection of their superiors. He sighed and said, "How can I bow my head to such a despicable villain and pretend to be a grandson for this little thing."

So he stopped playing and went into hiding.

As can be seen from the original text, the reasons are as follows.

1.Being an official is honest, will not be flattering, there is no way to be an official, or there is no opportunity to be a big official 2The place where he was an official was in Pengze, far away from home, and there was turmoil at that time, so I wanted to go home.

3.I didn't have the idea of being an official, and now I went against my will and became a petty official, but I still can't support my family. Physical and mental pain.

4.In addition, the younger sister who married into the Cheng family at that time died in Wuchang.

So I was in a hurry to resign and go home.
