2. Pipa Xing is one of the poems of Changle House written by Bai Juyi, a poet in the Tang Dynasty.
3. Original text (excerpt)
Between Guan Ying's words, the bottom of the flower is slippery, so you can't swallow the spring scenery and flow under the ice.
The ice spring is cold and astringent, and the strings condense, and the condensation will never stop.
The depth of sadness and the hiding of sadness are more told in silence than in voice.
A silver vase suddenly burst, pouring out a stream of water, jumping out of the conflict and blow between armored horses and weapons.
4. Translation
Pipa sounds like a smooth birdsong under a flower for a while, and then it sounds like a difficult, low and intermittent sound of water flowing under the ice.
It seems that the cold and astringent pipa sound of the spring began to condense, and the sound of poor condensation gradually stopped.
It seems that another kind of sadness and hatred is secretly breeding. At this time, being silent is more touching than having a voice.
All of a sudden, it seems that the silver bottle was smashed into the water, splashing, and it seems that armored cavalry are fighting with swords and guns.
Background of extended data creation
In 8 15, prime minister Wu was assassinated, and Bai Juyi advocated that it was considered ultra vires to crack down on the murderer. Later, Bai Juyi was slandered: his mother fell into a well to see flowers and died, but Bai Juyi wrote poems about "appreciating flowers" and "new wells", which was detrimental to the famous religion. Therefore, he was demoted to Jiangzhou (now Jiujiang, Jiangxi) Sima.
In the autumn of the 11th year of Yuanhe (AD 8 16), Bai Juyi was demoted to Jiangzhou Sima for two years. He saw off guests in Jiangtou, Xunyang, and met a singer who was abandoned in his youth because of his artistic skills. She was unhappy, and combined with her own travel experience, she wrote this famous Pipa Line (the original Pipa Line Preface) in the form of singing.
In 8 18, Bai Juyi's younger brother Bai Xingjian went to Jiangzhou to see Bai Juyi. When Bai Juyi was appointed as the secretariat of Zhongzhou, Bai Xingjian also went upstream with his brother. On the way, I met Yuan Zhen in Huangniuxia. The place where the three of them swam together was called Sanyou Cave.
During his tenure in Zhongzhou, Bai Juyi planted flowers on the hillside east of Zhongzhou, and named this place "Dongpo". In the winter of the same year, he was appointed as the secretariat of Zhongzhou (now Zhongxian County, Chongqing) and took office on 8 19. In the summer of 820, he was recalled to Chang 'an and served as a foreign minister of Shangshu Division. ?
Although Bai Juyi's mother died looking at flowers, Bai Juyi had many poems about flowers, and according to the records of the Song Dynasty, Xinjing poems were written around the first year of Yuanhe (Xinjing poems have been lost today), which shows that this matter cannot constitute a charge. The main reason for his demotion is probably related to his writing satires and offending those in power.
Jiangzhou is a turning point in Bai Juyi's life: before that, he aimed at "helping the poor" and hoped to make useful contributions to the people of the whole country; Since then, his actions have gradually turned to "solitude". Although he still cares about the people, his actions have no spark of the past.
