Ten poems recited in Qinzhong and prefaced
Bai Juyi of Tang Dynasty
On the occasion of Zhenyuan and Yuanhe, I was in Chang'an , there are those who are quite sad when hearing and seeing it. Because he wrote about it, he was named "Qin Zhongyin".
Marriage Proposal
There is no right voice in the world, and pleasant sounds are entertainment. There is no true color in the world, and what pleases the eyes is Shu. The colors are not different, but the rich and the poor are different.
Poverty is abandoned by the times, and wealth is the trend of the times. A rich girl from a red mansion, wearing a gold embroidered rut. If you don't hold back your hands when you see someone, you are so charming and crazy.
My mother and brother didn’t even speak, but they were already married within a short time. A girl from a poor family with a green window has been lonely for more than 20 years. Jing Chai has no money and no pearls on his clothes.
A few times I wanted to hire someone, but then I hesitated again. The master knows a good matchmaker and fills the jade pot with wine. Please sit down and don’t drink. Listen to my song.
It is easy for a rich girl to marry, but her husband will be underestimated if she marries early. It is difficult for a girl from a poor family to marry, so she marries late and is filial to her aunt. I heard that you want to marry a woman. What do you think about marrying a woman?
Heavy endowment
Planting mulberry and hemp in thick land is to help the people. People live in cloth and silk, and they want to live a whole life. I am full of gifts outside my body, and I am dedicated to the king and relatives.
The state’s original intention to set two taxes is to worry people. In the early days of Jue, he warned against his promiscuity and issued an order to his internal and external ministers: Adding anything in addition to taxes would be regarded as a violation of the law.
However, as time goes by, greedy officials have to follow the rules. Dredging me for favor, gathering my rope without winter or spring. The weaving silk has not yet become a piece, and the silk silk has not yet become a pound.
Lixu forced me to accept it, and I was not allowed to patrol temporarily. At the end of the year, the sky and the earth are closed, and the dark wind breaks through the village. At the end of the night, the fireworks are gone and the snow is white.
The young ones cannot cover their bodies, and the old ones have no body temperature. Sadness and coldness merge into the nose. Yesterday, I lost the residual tax because I peeked at the official treasury door:
The silk is like a pile of mountains, and the silk is like a cloud. The name is "Envy of the Remaining Things", and I offer it to the Supreme One with the moon. Take away the warmth from my body and buy the grace before your eyes.
Enter Qionglin Library and turn into dust over time!
Shangzhai
Whose family has a first name, next to Zhumen Avenue? Fengwu has combs in the middle and high walls outside. There are six or seven halls, and the buildings are connected to each other.
One session costs a million, and the smoke rises. The bridal chamber should be warm and clear, and should not be dry in the cold or heat. The high hall is empty and far away, and you can see Nanshan when sitting and lying down.
The corridor is surrounded by wisteria trellises and red medicine railings. Climbing branches to pick cherries, and carrying peonies with them. The master sits here and has been a high official for ten years.
There is rotten meat in the kitchen and rotten money in the treasury. Who can speak to me and ask between your flesh and blood: How can there be so many humble people who cannot bear to save themselves from hunger and cold?
How to devote yourself to one’s life and hope to protect it for thousands of years? The Ma family residence is missing, but it is now Fengcheng Garden.
Injured friend
The lonely man in the back alley is miserable when he goes out. Although Yun's ambition is high, his color is low. They have been classmates all their lives, and their common residence is in Jingui.
In the past, the contract was made of glue and lacquer, but recently it has been cloudy and rainy. Just as he was returning from the next court, Xuan rode five gates to the west. It was cloudy for a long time and it rained miserably for three days.
The donkey avoids the road and the fat horse neighs in the wind. I turned around and forgot about my acquaintance, and took up the road on the sand embankment. In the past, in Luoyang Society, the poor and the lowly supported each other.
Today on Chang'an Road, across the road is Yunni. It's been like this a lot lately, and I'm not the only one who's miserable. The only person who remains unchanged in life and death is Ren Yuli.
[Original note: Ren Gongshu, Li Feng. ]
Not to become an official
To become an official at seventy, the etiquette and law are clearly written. What kind of person is he who is greedy for glory and refuses to listen to these words? Poor eighty-ninety-year-old, with teeth dropped and eyes dim.
The dew in the morning is greedy for fame and wealth, and the sunset is worrying about the descendants. Hanging the crown to care about the Cuiyu, hanging the car to cherish the Zhulun. Jin Zhang's waist was weak and he entered the king's house hunched over.
Who doesn’t love wealth? Who doesn’t love your kindness? When you are old, you must retire, so your name will be combined and you will retire. When I was young, I was scornful, but in my later years, I often followed the rules.
Xianzai Han Ershu, who is he alone? Lonely Dongmen Road, with no one to follow.
Erecting monuments
As virtues decline, so do articles. But I saw a stone in the mountain and erected it as a roadside monument. The names of the honors are known to the Grand Duke, and the virtues are all Zhongni.
Many words are worth a thousand dollars. When I want to see my descendants, I am writing about him. But those who desire fools will be pleased, but those who do not care for the wise will laugh at them.
It is not only the wise who sneer, but also the doubts of future generations. The words on the ancient stone and green moss, An Zhi is a shameful word! I heard that in Wangjiang County, Qu ordered me to caress my wife.
He has a benevolent government in his official position, but his reputation is unknown in the capital. When he died and wanted to be buried, the people covered the road. He was not allowed to return to the mountain, so he was buried on the Yangtze River.
To this day, both men and women shed tears when they hear his name. No one erected a monument, only the people in the city knew about it.
[Original note: Quling’s name is Xinling. ]
(In honor of Xi Taigong, all virtues are shown by Zhongni: A title is given to Xi Taigong, and moral teachings are all Zhongni)
Light fat
Arrogant The road is full of saddles and horses shining on the dust. If I ask what he is doing, he is called an internal minister. Zhu Fu is a doctor, and Zi Shou is a general.
Praise for going to a banquet in the army and running away like clouds. The bottles are overflowing with nine treasures, and there are eight treasures in water and land. The fruit is broken into Dongting oranges, and the Tianchi scales are cut into pieces.
Feeling satisfied after eating and revitalizing with wine. It was a drought in the south of the Yangtze River, and people in Quzhou were cannibals!
Wu Xian
Stop singing in clear songs, and stop dancing in red sleeves. Zhao Sou held the five strings in his arms and caressed them on his chest. Loud and rough, rustling wind and rain.
The voice is extremely soft, full of ghosts and gods. It is also like a magpie announcing good news, which turns into an ape crying bitterly. The ten fingers have no final sound, and Gong Zhengyu is upside down.
When the guests heard this sound, their body and soul seemed to have no owner. When the travelers heard this, they stopped and could not lift.
To the ears of ordinary people, it is better to live in the present than in the past.
So the green window piano generates dust every day.
Singing and Dancing
In the middle of the Qin Dynasty, the clouds were dusk, and the imperial state was covered with heavy snow. Those who retreat from the court in the snow will be the noble princes. The nobles are prosperous, and the rich have no worries about hunger or cold.
The only thing we run is the house, and the only thing we do is pursue travel. Zhulun chariots and horses, red candle singing and dancing building. Sitting in close proximity with each other in a state of joy, drunk and warm, taking off his heavy fur.
Qiuguan is the master, and Tingwei is at the top. It’s a joy during the day, and I can’t rest in the middle of the night. Little did he know that there were prisoners on death row in Nengxiang Prison!
Buy flowers
Spring is approaching dusk in the imperial city, and there is a lot of noise and traffic. When I talked about peonies, I went to buy flowers with them. There is no permanent price for high or low, and the reward depends on the number of flowers:
A hundred red flowers are burning, and five bunches of vegetables are scattered. There is a curtain on the top for shelter, and a fence on the side for protection. Sprinkle water and seal it with mud, and the color will remain the same.
Every family has a common practice, and everyone is confused. There is a farm owner who occasionally comes to buy flowers.
He bowed his head and sighed, no one can describe this sigh:
A clump of dark flowers is a gift from one of the ten households!
