The wild lotus leaves on the edge of the small continent have lost their petals and the green lotus leaves have dried up. The autumn Polygonum in the wind is no longer lush, and the dark red spikes are sad. The willow trees on the river bank have lost their green color, leaving only almost bare strips. All this is closely related to the travel troubles of people crossing the river. Throughout the ages, the most difficult thing to get rid of and forget is to leave love and hate. At the entrance of Zhenjiang, Xijindukou, Beigushantou: Disappointed all the way.

Make an appreciative comment
The Yangtze River is called a natural barrier, and crossing it is by no means as convenient as today's traffic. Therefore, when the ancients crossed the river, all kinds of emotions surged and produced all kinds of unspeakable sadness. At this time, the author crossed from Guazhou on the north shore to the other side, and it was no exception.
However, this article is different from the usual practice of crossing the river at the beginning of similar works, and chooses the paragraphs of "nearshore" and "ashore". The first three sentences are divided into three parts, namely, Zhou Zhu, Jiangtan and Dike. Although it is also from far and near, it is the end of crossing. I wrote about the bleak autumn scenery presented by plants. This makes this song different from the work of crossing the river, which mainly shows the river surface. It is not for splendor and danger, but for a feeling of sadness in the cold.
"The willows on the embankment are green and graceful" is an extension of the bleak scenery of "Julian" and "Liao Feng", and it is also the closest feeling object to the poet at this time. The author takes this as a transition and gives birth to the feeling of parting. "Today is ancient and leisurely" starts from time, while the following three Zhenjiang place names start from space, and the combination of them spreads the hatred of parting from the details of autumn scenery, which has a shocking and lingering meaning. The trip is over, but the feeling of "parting" haunts my heart and writes the feeling of "crossing Guazhou". It can be seen that the first three sentences, although the situation is not big, are beneficial to Fu. Zhao's Sanqu is mostly about scenery, but the scenery in his works is almost cold and thin, with the style of Meng Jiao and Jia Dao. Although this is rare in Yuan Sanqu, it is also unique.
