Unification of the Song Dynasty: Starting from Saving Su Shi

Meng Tan, courtesy name Yunxuan, was born in Qiantang, Hangzhou. It may be said that he is the direct descendant of a sub-sage who can understand the Six Classics and is known as a sage in the countryside. In Xiningzhong, the prefect Shen Li was appointed as a professor. In the following years, Hangzhou's Confucian classics flourished, and scholars came out. When traveling with Su Shi, Shi always called him a pure Confucian, but it was a pity that due to bad luck, he could not seek justice. Wu Xichang studied the classics and achieved great success in his skills. Tan Nai died at home not long after he became an official. After that, although hope came to Zhongshu Ling and Jiedu Envoy of Sanzhen, he often cried bitterly and said: "Mr. Wu, An Youxi is here." There are "Annotations to the Six Classics" and "Yun Xuan Ji", both of which are popular in the world. Thanks to hope's request, he was given the posthumous title of Wai Lang, a member of the Ministry of Water Affairs, with the posthumous title of Yi'an.
