My concubine is unlucky
Li Bai
The Emperor of Han valued Gillian and kept her in a golden house.
The spittle fell down to the sky for nine days, and the wind produced pearls and jade.
I love you so much but I still love you so much, I am so jealous but so affectionate.
Nagato walked one step at a time, refusing to return to the car temporarily.
The rain cannot fall from the sky, and the water cannot be collected again.
The king's love and the concubine's love flow from east to west.
What used to be a hibiscus flower is now a rootless grass.
How long will it take for Israel to benefit others?
"Concubine's Unfortunate Life" is one of the ancient Yuefu inscriptions. Li Bai's poem "Establishing justice according to the title", through the description of Empress Chen's Gillian from being favored to falling out of favor, reveals the tragic fate of women in feudal society who use sex to attract others, and the sex fades and the love fades.
There are sixteen sentences in the whole poem, and every four sentences are basically at the same level. The first four sentences of the poem first describe Gillian's favor, and starting from "The beauty is hidden in the golden house", the desire to suppress is first promoted, to contrast the neglect after falling out of favor. According to the "Stories of Han Wu": When Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty was a few years old, his aunt Princess asked him: "Does your son want a wife?" Referring to more than a hundred people on the left and right, they all said: "No need." Finally, referring to his daughter. Gillian asked: "How is Gillian?" Liu Che smiled and said: "Okay! If I get Gillian as his wife, I will keep her as a gold house." After Liu Che came to the throne, Gillian became the queen, and she was very doted on her for a while. The poem uses two exaggerated lines: "The saliva falls to the sky, and the wind produces pearls and jade" to vividly depict Gillian's arrogance when she was favored. She was really popular and arrogant. However, the good times did not last long. From the following four sentences, "I love you so much, I still have a rest", the pen turns to describe Gillian's fall from favor. Between the ups and downs, the bottom of the pen is full of waves. The jealous Empress Chen had made various efforts to "win the favor". She hired Sima Xiangru to write "Nangmen Fu" with a lot of money, "I hope that you will be kind and considerate of your concubine, and you will not hesitate to buy poems and poems with gold." (Li Bai's "Baitou") "Yin"); and he also used the magic of the witch Chu Fu to "return to his will". The former did not achieve much effect, but the latter was offended by it. Later, she became the "Deposed Queen" and lived in seclusion in Nagato Palace. Although she was one step away from the emperor, she was so far away that the palace car refused to return temporarily. The following four sentences of "Rain cannot fall to the sky" use vivid metaphors to express the impossibility of "returning one's will", which is consistent with the saying in "Baitou Yin" that "water flowing from the east does not return to the west" and "the cup is full if it is filled with water and collected again". The meaning of the words is the same. What is the reason for this? In the last four sentences, the poet uses a metaphorical technique to vividly reveal such a pattern: "In the past, hibiscus flowers have become grassroots. How long will it be possible to use sex to serve others?" This thought-provoking poem is a warning for this article. , it satirizes those who seize others from Israel, and at the same time, it is also a warning to those who are temporarily favored by "Israel's seclusion from others." The poet uses metaphors to reason and metaphors to discuss, giving full play to the characteristics of image thinking and the role of metaphors. Without reasoning, it is better than reasoning. Without discussing, it is higher than discussion, which is quite interesting.
The language of this poem is simple and natural, the charm is natural, the metaphor is appropriate, and the contrast is sharp. Comparing gaining favor with losing favor, comparing "hibiscus flower" with "root-cutting grass", the comparison is meaningful. The whole poem is partly a comparison, and the conclusion is drawn from the comparison: "How long can you get good results if you use sex to do things to others?" It seems natural and strange, and it comes naturally like water, and it is ripe and strange. It is thrilling to read.
