Wang Siren (1575-1646) Ming Dynasty writer. The word season is heavy, and the name is Jingan and Suidong, from Shanyin (now Shaoxing, Zhejiang). Clever in his childhood, after being a jinshi at the age of twenty, he spent three careers and three delinquencies in his life, half of which lived in the wild in fifty years. He has served as the county magistrate three times, and has also served as Yuanzhou push officer, director of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs and Ministry of Engineering. When King Lu was in charge of the country, he served as the minister of rites.
In May of the second year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1645), Nanjing was broken, and Ma Shiying entered Zhejiang as a concubine. He was angry and scolded Ma Shiying for harming the country and the people. Please behead it and tell the provinces. The Qing army forced Hangzhou, Ma Shiying wanted to cross the river into Vietnam, and Si Ren wrote a letter to reject him, saying: "Wuyue is the land of revenge and shame, and the land of slander and dirt. Please go to Xu Tao first, and beg Su Dongbai to refuse. Your Excellency." When Shaoxing fell, Wang Siren moved to the countryside without going to the city, without shaving his hair, and died on a hunger strike. He was 72 years old. He is humorous by nature, and he usually indulges in drunkenness and laughs with the hawkers, without being prudent. The prose was influenced by Xu Wei and the Gong'an School.
