Yan Jidao: When I Was a Young Man Wearing Bright Clothes and Angry Horses

Yan Jidao was a slightly unparalleled genius poet. There were many bright stars in that era, such as Su Dongpo, Fan Zhongyan, Yan Shu, Fu Bi, Ouyang Xiu, etc. His father, Yan Shu, was the tutor of Fu Bi, Fan Zhongyan, and Ouyang Xiu. He was very popular in the literary world of the Northern Song Dynasty. His brother-in-law was Fu Bi, and Yan Jidao was the second generation of officials, the second generation of rich people, and the second generation of writers. His youth is an angry horse in bright clothes, and his middle-aged life is so desolate that it is difficult to describe it in a single word.
