Edit the original text of this paragraph
In the spring of the fourth year of Qingli, Teng Zijing was relegated to Baling County. In the next year, the government was well-connected and people were harmonious, and everything was restored. Yueyang Tower was rebuilt, its old structure was added, and poems and poems by Tang Xian and modern people were engraved on it. Belong to (zhǔ) and write (yǔ) to record it.
I watched Fu (fú) Baling Shengzhuang in a lake in Dongting. It holds the distant mountains and swallows the Yangtze River, and the vast and vast water (shāng) (shang) stretches endlessly; the morning light and evening clouds create a myriad of phenomena; this is the grand view of Yueyang Tower, which has been described by predecessors. However, it is connected to Wu Gorge in the north and Xiaoxiang in the South Pole. Migrant poets and poets often meet here, and the feeling of looking at the things is the same?
If the husband is lustful (yín), the rain is falling, and the moon is not open; the wind is howling, and the turbid waves are emptying; the sun and stars are hidden, and the mountains are invisible
; business travel is not possible, and the qiáng (qiáng) ) is destroyed by pouring; Thin (bó) twilight is dark, tigers roar and apes cry. Climbing the tower, there are those who are nostalgic for their country, worried about slander and fear of ridicule, their eyes are full of desolation, and they feel extremely sad!
When spring comes and the scenery is bright, the waves are calm, the sky is bright above and below, and the sky is a vast expanse of blue; sand gulls gather in the sky, brocade scales swim, and the shore is full of orchids, lush and green. Or when the long smoke disappears, the bright moon shines thousands of miles away, the floating light leaps into the gold, the silent shadow sinks into the jade, and the fishermen answer each other's songs, how wonderful is this joy! When you climb the tower, you will feel relaxed and happy, forgetting your favors and disgrace together, drinking wine in the wind, and you will be overjoyed.
Sigh (jiē) husband! I try to seek the heart of ancient benevolent people, or do it differently from the two. Why? Don't be happy with things, don't be sad with yourself. If you live high in the temple, you will worry about your people; if you live far away from the rivers and lakes, you will worry about your ruler. It means that you are worried when you advance, and you are also worried when you retreat. But when will you be happy? He must say: "Be worried about the worries of the world first, and be happy after the happiness of the world"! Yi! People from Weisi, who can I return to?
It was September 15th, six years ago.
Ancient Chinese Translation
In the spring of the fourth year of Renzong’s Qingli reign, Teng Zijing was demoted to Baling County as the prefect. In the second year, political affairs went smoothly, the people were happy, and all kinds of neglected projects were started. So the Yueyang Tower was rebuilt, expanded to its original size, and poems and poems by famous Tang Dynasty figures and contemporary people were engraved on the Yueyang Tower. Ask me to write an article to record this incident.
I think the good scenery in Baling County is all on Dongting Lake. Connected to the mountains in the distance, it swallows the water of the Yangtze River. The water waves are vast and boundless; it may be cloudy or sunny (in a day), and the scene changes endlessly. This is the majestic scene of Yueyang Tower. The previous records (already) are very detailed. In this case, it leads to Wu Gorge in the north and Xiaoshui and Xiangshui in the south. Most of the officials and poets who were demoted and transferred to distant places gathered here. The emotions triggered by seeing the natural scenery will probably be different, right?
Like the continuous rain that never clears up for months, the cold wind howls, and the turbid water waves rush into the sky; the sun and stars hide their brilliance, and the mountains disappear. body. Merchants and travelers were unable to travel, masts were toppled and oars were broken. In the evening, the sky is dark, the tigers roar and the apes cry. (At this time) When you climb up this building, you will leave the capital, miss your hometown, worry about others saying bad things, fear of being criticized and criticized. When you look up again, you will see a scene of depression and desolation, sighing to the extreme and feeling sad. .
As for when the spring breeze is warm and the sun is shining brightly, the lake surface is calm and there are no rough waves. The sky and lake light meet each other, and it is green and vast. Seagulls on the sandbank sometimes fly and sometimes rest, beautiful fish swim around, and the flowers and plants on the shore and on the small island are lush and green. Sometimes the large smoke dissipates completely, the bright moonlight pours down thousands of miles, the fluctuating light shines golden, the quiet moon image sinks into the water, and the fisherman's song sounds and sings in harmony. How can such fun be endless? At this time, when you climb up to the Yueyang Tower, you will feel open-minded and happy. You will forget about glory and humiliation. When you pick up the wine and drink in the breeze, you will feel really happy and happy.
Alas! I once explored the thoughts and feelings of people with noble moral character in ancient times. Perhaps they were different from the moods of the above two people. Why is this? People with high moral character in ancient times did not feel happy or sad based on the quality of external objects or their own gains and losses. When he is an official in the court, he worries about the people; when he is not an official in the court, he worries about the monarch. In this way, I am worried about being an official in the imperial court, and I am also worried about being in a remote world.
In this case, when will you feel happy? Then they will definitely say, "Worry before the world is worried, and be happy after the world is happy." Alas! If there is no such person, who should I go with?
The time is September 15th, the sixth year of Qingli.

Edit this paragraph to appreciate poetry
The water in Dongting is under the sky, and the sky is under the sky in Yueyang. The 800-mile Dongting Lake is connected to the Xiang, Zi, Yuan and Li rivers in the south, and is divided into the Songzi, Taiping and other tributaries of the Yangtze River in the north. It has vast misty waves and reflected lakes and mountains. It has been a fascinating scenic spot since ancient times. Yueyang was called Baling in ancient times. The confluence of Dongting Lake and the Yangtze River, pillowed by mountains and lakes, is the hub of Ba, Shu, Jing and Xiang. In the sixth year of Qingli in the Northern Song Dynasty (1046), Fan Zhongyan, a famous minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, responded to the invitation of his friends and wrote a record of the rebuilt Yueyang Tower, and the famous text "The Story of Yueyang Tower" was born.
The article gets right to the point at the beginning, describing the origin and origin of the matter. The writing begins with "spring of the fourth year of Qingli" to indicate the time, and the style is solemn and upright; calling Teng Zijing "relegated to Shou" already implies the sadness of the ups and downs of his official career, setting up a lyrical ambush for the following text. In the following, only eight words are used to describe Teng Zijing's political achievements, including the reconstruction of Yueyang Tower and the writing of notes, which serve as the guide for the entire text.
In the second paragraph, the style is uplifting and the words are passionate. First of all, he said, "The beauty of Baling is located in a lake in Dongting" and set the scope of the description below. The following few words "carrying distant mountains and swallowing the Yangtze River" describe the grand view of Dongting Lake. One "title" and one "swallow", what a momentum! "The vast water is boundless," which expresses the majestic waves of the water; "The sunrise and evening clouds, the weather is myriad", which summarizes the changes of clouds and sunshine, concise and vivid. The first four sentences describe the spectacular scene of Dongting Lake from the perspective of space and the last two sentences from the perspective of time. The sentence "Predecessors have prepared their accounts" connects the past and the future, and responds to the previous sentence "Poems of Tang Xian and modern people". This sentence is not only modest, but also implies a turning point. The change of "ran" leads to a new artistic conception, from simply describing the scenery to using the brushwork of blending scenes to describe the "emotion of viewing things" of the "immigrant scholar", thus constructing a The main body of the full text.
The two paragraphs 3 to 4 are two parallel paragraphs, running in parallel, one sad and one happy, one dark and one bright, like two surging and jumping streams of emotions, conveying the mutual interaction between scene and emotion. Two completely opposite life situations.
The third paragraph starts with "Ruofu", which is meaningful. This is a word that triggers discussion, and it also expresses the sentiment of virtuality. This virtuality is the condensation, refinement and sublimation of countless realities, which is quite typical. "Ruofu" below describes a sad situation, from the bad weather to the sadness of people's hearts. Four-character short sentences are used here, layer by layer, and gradually elaborated.
The falling rain, gloomy wind, and turbid waves constitute the main scenery, which not only obscures the sun and stars, hides the shape of the mountains, but also hinders business travelers; or when the dusk falls and "the tiger roars and the ape cries", how can we not make the passers-by... Do "immigrated poets" have the emotion of "nostalgia for their country", the fear of "worry about slander and ridicule", and the feeling of "extreme sadness"?
The fourth paragraph starts with "Zhi Ruo" and opens a sunny scene. Although "Zhi Ruo" is also an enumeration tone, its syllables have become high-pitched and loud, and its style has become bright and powerful. Although the following description is still a short four-character sentence, the tone has changed, depicting a beautiful scene of a gentle spring breeze, bright scenery, and clear water and sky. There are even gulls flying freely, fish swimming happily, and even the ignorant aquatic plants and orchids are full of vitality. The author uses extremely concise pen and ink to describe a picture of lake light and spring scenery, which is as if you are reading it right in front of your eyes. It is worth noting that the sentence structure and rhythm of this paragraph are generally similar to the previous paragraph, but there are also variations. The sentence "And or" further expands the artistic conception, enhances the meaning of superimposed chants, and pushes the "joyful" atmosphere to a climax, and the state of mind of "climbing the tower" has also become the detachment and harmony of "loving, humiliating, and forgetting together." "Bring wine to the wind" with ease.
The fifth paragraph is the focus of the whole article. It starts with "域夫" and has both lyrical and argumentative meanings. After the author listed the two situations of sadness and joy, his writing style suddenly became exciting, expressing a higher ideal state beyond the two, that is, "Don't be happy with things, don't be sad with yourself"! Feel the things. Although it is human nature to move and feel sad and happy because of things, it is not the highest state of being a human being. The benevolent people in ancient times had a firm will that was not shaken by changes in external conditions. Whether "living high in the temple" or "far away from the rivers and lakes", the concern for the country and the people remains unchanged. "As we advance, we also worry, as we retreat." This seems counterintuitive and somewhat unbelievable. The author also formulated a question and answer on this, relying on the ancient sage's words, and made an oath to "worry before the world's worries, and rejoice after the world's happiness". The song ends with a graceful performance, which highlights the main theme of the whole article. "Hey! Who can I return to, Weisi people?" The conclusion is "like resentment, like admiration, like crying, like complaining." It is sad and generous, and deeply affectionate, which makes people sigh. The writing time is indicated at the end of the article, which corresponds to the beginning of the article.
The author of "Gu Wen Guan Zhi" generally commented on this article and said: "The grand view of Yueyang Tower has been written about by predecessors. The gentleman will not go into details, only describing the feelings of sadness and joy of those who climb the tower. He just translated "The following article contains a serious discussion of sorrow and joy." This comment indeed expresses the spiritual essence of this article.

Theme
"The water in Dongting is under the sky, and the sky is under the sky in Yueyang." When mentioning Yueyang Tower, people will naturally think of Fan Zhongyan, a famous minister through the ages, and the famous text "Yueyang Tower". Among them are sentences that show Fan Zhongyan's broad mind, "Don't be happy with things, don't be sad with yourself", and also praise his political ambition and life attitude of "worrying about the world's worries first, and rejoicing after the world's happiness". It can be said that people have given too much eyes and attention to Fan Zhongyan, but few people will think of Teng Zijing who has contributed a lot. It is both self-encouragement and mutual encouragement with friends.
