The word "Wu" originally comes from birds, and "jade" is the word "Wu" in the provincial style. There is a vulgar word "Wu" in Notes on the Dragon Cave, so the simplified Chinese character should really be "Wu". But according to common sense, although "Wu" has the name of filial piety, the "rabble" mentioned in the proverb has no good impression on "Wu", and it seems that it should not be the object of praise and praise in poetry and songs. "Guanzi Situation Solution" also said: "Making friends with people is deceitful and ruthless, and everything is stolen, which is called the friendship between Wu and Ji. At the turn of Wu Ji, although he was very happy at first, he would be jealous afterwards. Therefore, it is said that the friendship between Wu and Ji is good, but it is not close. Moreover, it is rare to say that the promise is in the water and bamboo.
However, it seems that in the south at that time, there was such a kind of "martial arts", which ate shrimps from abroad and flew gracefully.
"Biography of the Spring and Autumn Period and Sentence Jian as an Official": "My wife cries according to the boat, flying around like a shrimp pecked by a bird and a magpie, and singing because of crying, saying,' Birds are flying, kites are flying. Dingzhou, Zhu Youzi, pecking shrimp, licking clouds. Let me go back. I'm innocent and guilty, so why complain? When you go to the west alone, who knows when you will return to Xi? If my heart is broken, my tears will hang. Today, I sighed again: "This bird has been returned to Xiang and Su. "。 Why live in rivers and lakes when you are concerned about vegetarian shrimp. Wandering around, back and forth! The first time you came home, it was over with me. When people reach middle age, they go to Wu. The wife's clothes are brown and the husband is a slave. It's hard to be 18 years old. I'm very sad, very sad. My intestines were knotted, and I was convinced, so I forgot to eat. I wish I were a bird, flapping my wings and flying high. If you go to China, your heart will tremble and you will know whether you are angry or sorry! " "[4]
There used to be a kind of waterfowl, belonging to Rhubarb. "rhubarb is almost pure black and brown ... it lives in valleys and streams, moves in pairs, and can also be found on both sides of rivers ... and can swim and dive in the water." [5]
Birds Singing is a lost poem. Considering its characteristics of chanting "Wu", it may be a poem written by a southerner. [6]
Recently, we searched the relevant literature and found that the ancients pushed Wu's filial piety to a very high level [7]. Yin Wan Han bamboo slips "SHEN WOO Fu" said: "Chen (? ) flying, etc., Wu is the most precious. Its nature is benevolent, and it feeds back its relatives. Integrity and generosity are quite humane. " [8] This statement has its origin. Therefore, even in some areas, there is no good impression on Wu Ji, but it is not difficult to understand that southerners will praise the sage and gentleman from Wu. Even some northerners will do the same.
Cao Cao's famous "Short Songs" includes: "How many stars are there in the bright moon, and blackbirds fly south. Turn around the tree three times, what branches can you rely on? The mountain will never be too high and the water will never be too deep. Duke Zhou vomited, and the world returned to the heart. " He just compared himself to the Duke of Zhou and the black magpie to a saint, so that all heroes in the world could use it.
