Ji Kang-Ji Kang (224-263, said 223-262), the leader of seven sages of bamboo forest, was born in Luoxian, Qiaoxian County, Wei State during the Three Kingdoms period (now Linhuan Town, Suixi County, Anhui Province). A famous thinker, musician, writer and metaphysician. In the early Qing Dynasty and the late Qing Dynasty, Ruan Ji and other bamboo forest celebrities advocated a new style of metaphysics, and advocated that "celebrity education is more natural" and "judging the noble and belittling the bright things", and they were the spiritual leaders of the "seven sages of bamboo forest". He is the son-in-law of Cao Wei's imperial clan. He once married Cao Cao's great-granddaughter and worked as a doctor in Cao Wei's middle school. He was called Ji Zhongsan. Later, he was executed by Si Mazhao for offending Zhong Hui, who was only 40 years old.
Ji (J:) Kang lost his father when he was young and was raised by his mother and brother. He was smart since he was a child, reading widely and learning various skills. As an adult, he likes reading Taoist works. He is seven feet eight inches long. Rong Zhi is outstanding, but he doesn't pay attention to dressing up. Later, he married Wang Pei Cao Lin's daughter Changle Pavilion and gave birth to a son and a daughter.
Ji Kang is good at music, including piano music "The Wind Into the Pine"; He also wrote four piano pieces: Changqing, Short Qing, Long Side and Short Side, which are collectively called Jishi Four Alleys and Chua's Five Alleys in Cai Yong. Yang Di once regarded playing "Nine Farmers" as a condition for his official career. He also knows calligraphy and painting. Tang regarded cursive script as the second kind at the calligraphy meeting.
Ji Kang advocated Lao Zi and Zhuang Zi and once said, "Lao Zi and Zhuang Zi are my teachers!" , emphasizing the way of health and diet. He advocates the lifestyle of "being famous by teachers and letting nature take its course", and has written "On Health Preservation" to clarify his own way of health preservation. He praised the deeds of ancient hermits' loyalty to virtue, yearned for the life of being born, and was unwilling to be an official. General Si Mazhao wanted to hire him as a shogun, and he went to Hedong County to avoid conquest. A captain in Li Si, Zhong Hui, paid a visit with great ceremony and was given a cold shoulder by him. Dan Tao, one of the Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest, once recommended him to be an official. He wrote "Breaking Up with Shan Juyuan", listed his "seven can't" and "two can't", and resolutely refused to be an official. Sima Yu said uncle night "hurt his way".
Lv An's wife is beautiful, while Lu An's brother Lu Xun, * * *, is aggrieved and wants to sue Lu Xun. Ji Kang had contacts with Lu Xun and Lu An brothers, so he advised Lu An not to expose his family's dirty laundry and to clear his name. But Lu Xun was afraid of revenge, so he took the initiative to accuse Lu An of unfilial, and Lu An was arrested by the government. Ji Kang was very angry, so he came forward to testify for Lu An, which angered General Si Mazhao. At this point, Zhong Hui, who had been enemies with Ji Kang, took the opportunity to persuade Si Mazhao to execute Lu An and Ji Kang.
Before Ji Kang was executed, 3,000 Thai students begged Si Mazhao to pardon Ji Kang and let him give lectures in imperial academy, but they were not allowed. On the execution ground, Ji Kang took care of the shadow of the sun, calmly played Guangling San, sighed that Guangling San was unique now, and then died at the age of 39.
His son, Ji Shao, later a servant of the Jin Dynasty, died to protect Emperor Jinhui in the Eight Kings Rebellion.
