The ancient poem "The Emperor of Heaven sings the horn"

Trumpet and suona, the music is short, but loud. The official ship is in a mess, depending on your voice. The army listens to the army, and the people listen to the people's fear. Where can I tell the truth from the truth? Look at some people's stones, so that some people's vitality will be blown away, and the family will be ruined!

Trumpet and suona,

The music is short, but the sound is very loud.

The official ship is like a mess,

It's up to you to improve your reputation and status.

The soldiers listened to their concerns,

People are scared when they hear it.

Where can I tell the true from the false?

Seeing some people lose their money,

Some people are weakened,

In the end, the people are in trouble, and the family is ruined.

6 rely on: rely on, rely on. You: trumpet and suona. "height" Voice price: refers to reputation. Eunuch puts on airs, and the price of sound depends entirely on the horn.

Attending the blow to that family: hurt some people.

? When the water dried up, the goose flew away. It is a metaphor that the people are poor and rich, and the family is ruined. This is a serious consequence of eunuchs harming the people. Without water, the "official ship" could not run for a long time. This is also a warning to the supreme ruler and a metaphor for family destruction.
