Peacock Flying Southeast is the first narrative poem in the history of China literature. It is also known as the longest narrative poem in the ancient history of China and one of the glorious poems in ancient folk literature of China.
When the peacock hovers with wandering and caring feelings, why does it only fly to the southeast and not to other places? Jiao and Liu's marriage tragedy happened in Huaining County today. Jiaojia is in Jiaojiaban on the other side of Xiaoshigang River, and Liujia is in the east half of Xiaoshigang. Geographically, the Liu family is located in the southeast of Jiaojia.
The tragic ending was that Liu Lanzhi drowned and Jiao Zhongqing finally died? Wandering under the courtyard tree, hanging from the southeast branch? Jiao Zhongqing hanged himself, but again? Hanging in the southeast branch? , just in line with the opening sentence, because my hometown is in the southeast, and my corpse is also by the river in the southeast, so when I died of coke, I faced the southeast.
Peacock flies southeast, wandering five miles? These two sentences express the countless loneliness in the poet's heart. He couldn't drop the pen in his hand. The peacock bird flew southeast, flew five miles and lingered for a while.
Peacock is also a metaphor, not the peacock we often say, but a migratory bird. At this time, migratory birds have already felt that the weather is bleak and the temperature has dropped, so it will fly to a warm place in the south, which is out of nature.
This poem was praised for its loyalty to love, and finally it had a fairy tale ending. The words of double suicide also add a lot of highlights to their love story.
Because there are tall buildings in the northwest, peacocks can't fly to the northwest, but to the southeast. You can't be together when you're alive. I hope they can stay in death together, and the peacock flies southeast, which is a blessing for them.
