Extended data:
This poem expresses its regret through the experience of chrysanthemum. In the Tang and Song Dynasties, September 10th was called "Little Double Ninth Festival". From this point of view, the poet said that the chrysanthemum was picked twice at a climbing banquet in two days, so he complained that it was "too bitter".
The author used wine to drown his sorrows. Under the dim light, he seemed to see Chrysanthemum laughing at his court's "courtship". He asked painfully: Why did chrysanthemum get hit hard by the Double Ninth Festival? For those who appreciate chrysanthemums, the joy of the Double Ninth Festival is still endless, so the feast will continue on September 10; However, chrysanthemum, as an individual of life, has to endure picking twice.
With an extremely sensitive and delicate heart, the poet found this poetic space from the standpoint of chrysanthemum. In fact, the poet used the pain of chrysanthemum to pin his inner anguish.
By sighing chrysanthemum, I feel the frustrations and misfortunes of being left Beijing and exiled Yelang, which is difficult to solve. Although this poem is plain, it has a deep connotation. It mainly shows the author's sadness caused by repeated setbacks and blows in his life.
