4. Writing background
Liu Yuxi took part in Wang's "Yongzhen Innovation" and opposed the separatist forces of eunuchs and buffer regions. After the failure of innovation, he was demoted to Anhui and Zhou Xian as a small judge. According to the regulations, Tongguan will live in three three-bedroom rooms in the county government. However, he and Hezhou magistrate saw that Liu Yuxi was a soft persimmon demoted from above, so they deliberately made things difficult. First, he was arranged to live by the river in the south of the city. Liu Yuxi didn't complain, but was very happy. He also casually wrote two sentences and posted them on the door: "Face the river, look at the white sails, and fight for the ruling and opposition." The magistrate was very angry when he learned that Liu Yuxi's residence was moved from the south gate of the county seat to the north gate of the county seat, and the area was reduced from three to one and a half. The new house is by the Desheng River, with weeping willows nearby, and the environment is OK. Liu Yuxi still didn't care. Looking at the scenery, he wrote two sentences on the door: "The weeping willows are beside the Qinghe River, the people are in the sun, and the heart is in Beijing."
The magistrate of a county saw that he was still carefree and indifferent, and sent someone to transfer him to the county center, giving him only a hut with only one bed, one table and one chair. In half a year, the magistrate forced Liu Yuxi to move three times, and each time the area was relatively small. In the end, it's just a closet. Thinking about this snobbish dog officer really insulted others, so he angrily wrote this extraordinary "Humble Room Inscription" and asked someone to carve a stone tablet and stand in front of the door.

The humble room inscription began with mountains and rivers, and the water was not deep. As long as there is a dragon, you can be famous. Therefore, although you live in a humble place, you are "fragrant" because of your master's virtue. In other words, an inconspicuous room can of course be famous because of the existence of people with high moral quality, and its reputation will spread far and wide, and it will be engraved on a stone to remember. Ordinary landscapes give birth to dragons, and humble rooms can of course spread incense through people with high moral quality. This skill of using force is really wonderful, and it can also be described as the author's original creation. In particular, the fairy dragon is the crowning touch of the landscape, and the conception is wonderful. "I am a humble room, but I am virtuous and fragrant", from the landscape fairy dragon to the topic, the author directly turned to the topic, laying the foundation for the introduction. It also points out the reason why the humble room is not humble, which is the word "good faith"
From this point of view, the author wrote this essay after repeated thinking, which is definitely not a temporary inspiration. A quatrain can be an epiphany, but the seamless connection is the accumulation and repeated deliberation of usual skills. 4-7 sentences This article, carved on a stone under difficulties, has a strong tit-for-tat nature. Judging from the writing technique of the whole article, the whole article is done in one go by means of "comparison", not comparison. So what are the words "moss mark" and "smile" saying? The moss on the stone steps is (still) full of green, and the weeds on the wasteland are (still) green. What is the implication? I, Liu Yuxi, don't change my true colors anywhere. I associate with well-educated people, and there are no uneducated people. The author compares his independent personality to moss and weeds, which is a portrayal of integrity and an unyielding declaration.
