Last night, the candles in the bridal chamber were lit all night, waiting for dawn to worship the parents-in-law.
After putting on makeup, I asked my husband in a low voice: Is thrush deep and fashionable?
This is a very interesting poem. On the surface, it describes the scene where the bride goes to see her in-laws. But in fact, it is used by poets to ask themselves about their situation during exams.
Zhang Ji was a pioneer of poetry at that time. When the exam approached, the poet handed his poems to Zhang Ji, hoping that through his recommendation, everyone would know their talents and see if their poems met the requirements of the exam, so as to pass the exam smoothly.
After this poem was recommended, the poet wrote this poem and asked about Zhang Ji. Poetry means, what do you think of my poem? Does it meet the test requirements? Can I pass the exam this time? Here, the poet compares the examiner to her in-laws, compares Zhang Ji to her husband and compares herself to the bride. Seeing the poet's poem, Zhang Ji also wrote a poem humorously, telling him that his poem was well written and was very popular with people, and he could pass the exam smoothly.
