The story of Zhang Gong and Bai Ren
In the era of Tang Gaozong and Li Zhi. In more than 660 AD, Emperor Gaozong went to Mount Tai in Shandong. He heard that there was an old man named Zhang Gongyi who lived under the same roof for nine generations, so he stopped by his house curiously and asked him how he could live under the same roof for nine generations. Zhang Gongyi asked the emperor to give him a pen and paper to write to him.

As a result, he wrote a hundred words of "forbearance" in a row. The emperor was very happy and gave him a lot of silk. Later, it became the "Zhang Gong Bai Ren" of historical stories. I don't know whether Zhang Gongyi intends to enlighten or warn Gao Zong. Anyway, he helped Wu Zetian unintentionally.

At the same time, it is really his heartfelt experience, which shows that being a parent of a "big family" is equivalent to being the head of a government agency and a big company, and it is also like being the leader of a country. You must have great patience and endurance to live in peace with nine generations under one roof.

Song of patience

The forbearance mentioned in "Hundred Endurance Songs" belongs to the method of adjusting mentality in mental health, that is, when encountering bad emotions, we should advocate "reason", pay attention to "nurturing", master ourselves and control our emotions. If you don't control your emotions and let them indulge, not only the people around you can't stand it, but also it is extremely harmful to your body. From childhood to illness, life is in danger.

So for now, "forbearance" is also of positive significance. Song of Endurance is quite influential in China culture. "Patience" is a family style, which is undoubtedly a warning left by Zhang Quan's thousands of families to future generations, asking future generations to seek survival and development in "patience". People in the family think they are extremely proud, so they have a couplet of "Nine Houses were born in the world, and the sound is transmitted through all ages", which has become a special symbol of the Zhang family.
