However, I have to deny that I feel the same way after reading Du Fu Biography. He is a poet, born in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Since the middle and late Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty has experienced an Anshi rebellion, and Du Fu's poems are called the history of poetry. The reason is that he truly recorded the historical process of the Tang Dynasty from prosperity to decline before and after the Anshi Rebellion. Reading Du Fu's life is a biography of a great man, a heartbreaking history and a cultural journey. Du Fu was adrift all his life. At the beginning of Kaiyuan, he almost traveled all over the great rivers and mountains of the motherland. At the top of Mount Tai, he issued the ambition of "reaching the peak at one time, killing two birds with one stone and seeing all the slopes", and in his prime, he was also a scholar of the Tang Dynasty who generally gained fame through examinations. Later, he was trapped in Chang 'an for ten years, which was the most embarrassing time in his life.
In 755 AD, the Anshi Rebellion began and Chang 'an fell. Unfortunately, Du Fu, who was concerned about his country and people, was captured by the rebels and suffered inhuman torture because he refused to work for them. One night, it was raining cats and dogs, and Du Fu escaped from prison with the help of his friends. He almost went through hardships to escape to Fengxiang. However, it never rains but it pours. Worship the left to pick up the body in May. He wrote a letter to rescue his good friend Fang Guan, angered Su Zong and was exiled to Sichuan. In 789 AD, he went to Yanwu, our envoy to Sichuan, and lived in a shabby thatched cottage in the western suburbs of Chengdu. Once upon a time, he worked as a staff officer under Yanwu's door, checking the position of Yuan Wailang of the Ministry of Industry, so people later called him Du Gongbu.
He has been immersed in the lower class for a long time, and has the loyalty and kindness of ordinary people and the great ambition of taking the world as his own responsibility. He personally experienced the sufferings of the people, the cruelty of officials and the joys and sorrows of relatives during the An Shi Rebellion, and he integrated them into his own poems. Du Fu's most famous works describing the sufferings of the people are "Three Officials" and "Three Farewells". His lament about his poverty and poverty is integrated with his deep thinking about the country. Putting aside the essence of Du Fu's poems for the time being, I think what impressed me deeply is that Du Fu has a kind heart that sympathizes with others. "There are thousands of buildings, everyone in the world is happy, and the wind and rain are like a calm mountain." How many people expressed their hopes, and what is even more shocking is "alas!" When I suddenly see this house in front of me, I will freeze to death alone! "For the stability and happiness of the world, he is willing to bear all the hardships alone. Isn't his broad mind and his spirit of benefiting the country and the people rather than suffering for himself worthy of our respect and study? Du Fu is not completely serious, but he also has a funny side. In the nine quatrains, the feeling of cherishing spring is expressed in the tone of being annoyed and complaining about spring, which is unique. What is more commendable is that Du Fu is good at discovering talents. I think if he knows that he can still serve his country, he is a "black silk"! An ancient saint like Du Fu deserves to be called a poet saint between independent heaven and earth.
I was deeply moved after reading Du Fu's biography. In the cold weather brought by rain, there is still a warm current surging in my heart.
