Appreciation of Huang Tingjian's ancient poem Farewell to Wang Lang

Take Pucheng Mulberry Wine as the choice and Xiang Lei Qiuju as the reputation.

Send you Sichuan painting ink and send you tears in the sun.

When wine pours on the chest, it will be quick with thunder, and chrysanthemums will be short-lived.

Ink is a seal used to inherit ancient Chinese, and song is used to write a brother's feelings.

The mountains and rivers are all white, and the flesh and blood are green at the end of the decade.

Even in bed at night, the chicken warned that the book bag was bottomless at dawn.

Meritorious calligraphy is so, why hate is far less than sound books?

It is impossible to stir-fry sand, and carving ice products takes a lot of effort.

Be careful of the sweat horse, Confucius and Mencius are the best in the world.

A younger brother has the strength to keep a house, and a woman can raise an aunt for precious salmon.

Children's poems are written by women, but men read books and make spring tea.

—— Huang Tingjian

This poem was written in the seventh year of Yuanfeng (1084) and transferred from Taihe County, Zhili (now Jiangxi) to Deping Town, Dezhou (now Deping, Shandong). Wang Lang, whose name is pure and bright, has a world-famous personality. He is the author's brother-in-law and can also write poems. The author collected many poems he sang. At this time, Ting Jian had just arrived in Texas, and Wang Chunliang went to see him. Before he left, he made this gift for the king.

The first paragraph of this poem is from the sentence to "the eye of the same flesh and blood, blue at the end of the decade", which is written as farewell. It doesn't rhyme, interspersed with four sentences and seven words, and used six long sentences of nine words to pour it out in one breath through parallelism; Nine-character long sentences, sonorous tone and rich words: this is a rare "other tune" in Ting Jian's poems. This kind of machine-harmonized rhetoric is quite popular with readers, so this poem is widely circulated. In the words of Chen Yan's comment on Tingzhang's poem "Send Yellow Several Times", it is "the most timely language in this old age". However, the first eight sentences of this paragraph are more general: it is said that Wang should be invited to drink with Pucheng's fine wine, and some pieces of "autumn chrysanthemum" that Qu Yuan likes to swallow and chew can be floated on the wine to douse the uneven "thunder block" in Wang Lang's chest, and chrysanthemum can be used to control the premature aging of the world as Tao Yuanming said; It is necessary to send Wang with the good ink made in yi county, Zhangzhou, and send him off with the song "Tears fall in the sun" like Wang Wei's song, so that Wang Lang can write the "heart print" of "the eternal article" (the wonderful truth that ancient and modern writers are soul mates) and sing the feelings of "family" like "brothers". Besides, the music was not initiated by the author. From a distance, some people say that the first song of Bao Zhao's "It's difficult to do it" is "the wine of gold, the carved piano of hawksbill, the feather account of colorful hibiscus, the brocade of Jiuhua and Pu Tao". From a close distance, Ouyang Xiu's "Send the original servant to read Yongjia" begins with four sentences: "Take Jingzhou fish pillow banana as a gift and give Xuancheng moustache management. Wine is like Changhong drinking the sea, and pens are like horses. " Although it has developed, it is still extravagant and cannot represent Ting Jian's poetic achievements. At the end of this paragraph, the last two sentences are: "The mountains and rivers are all white, and the flesh and blood are blue at the end of the decade." I didn't see the power of Huang's poetry. In the words of commenting on the poem "Send a few letters to Huang", it is to show the "slave state". These two poems originated from Du Fu's poem "Others are white, but their eyes are blue". The author has similar sentences, but the two used here are the best. It suddenly stood upright with a stiff pen, stopping the pouring trend and harmonious sound of the previous poems, as powerful as the "pillar" in the middle reaches of the Yellow River. How can you see it? Writing a temporary farewell from the front and suddenly turning to writing a long-term relationship with each other is one of them; Two sentences have been written for ten years, and they have traveled thousands of miles to each other. Great changes have taken place when their hair turns white and approaches aging. What remains unchanged is the intimate feeling of "flesh and blood" and "green eyes". The content is very wide and highly compressed in the sentence. Second; The rhetoric is beautiful, and the brushwork has become vigorous and powerful, which is the third. This kind of place, the most see Huang's poetic skills.

In the second paragraph, eight sentences are rhymed, connected with the previous paragraph, praising Wang Lang and making a farewell speech. There are four sentences in Sleeping Night Talk, saying that Wang Lang came to visit and talked with each other in bed. It is often said that when chickens crow at dawn, Wang Lang is knowledgeable, like a bottomless "book bag", and the information of conversation is endless; I am glad that Wang Lang's research is fruitful, and his work is profound. If he doesn't, he will continue to make great progress, so he won't have to resent that audio books can't be used often. Origin will be written in depth, from in-depth discussion to admiration for Wang Lang's knowledge and future ideas, and the writing style is fluent and free, which is another change. The four sentences of "stir-frying sand to make minced meat" came from reading and learning, and they were made into comments as gifts. They were vigorous and vigorous, and their writing style changed to correspond to "Jiangshan". The two sentences of "stir-frying sand" came from Lengyan Sutra: "If you continue to commit adultery, those who practice meditation, such as steaming sand, will become hot sand after hundreds of robberies." Why? This is not rice, it is sand. "Carving ice comes from" On Salt and Iron ":"If you learn it without taking its essence, you will carve ice for a long time. "Sweating a horse is a metaphor for victory. The author of "Answer to Wang Weizhi" said: "If you want to use morality against the soldiers in China ... you must seriously accept the great achievements, and reading is interesting. "Awkward and bright. These four sentences mean: the pursuit of writing "skilled" articles, such as "frying sand to make minced meat", can not fill the stomach, like carving ice cubes, can not last long; We must converge our minds, sink into morality and overcome vanity, in order to realize the way of Confucius and Mencius, day after day. Ting Jian tries his best to be "skillful", but he also has the concept that literature should serve "Tao", so he thinks that Confucius and Mencius should be the main way to study and study. In fact, Ting Jian is a poet himself, so he can't really ignore words. This just shows that he put Confucian self-cultivation and saving the world in the first place.

The last four sentences are the third paragraph. Wang Lang's younger brother can manage the family affairs for him, his wife can cook good food to honor his mother-in-law, his son can read poems, his daughter can weave silk and hemp, and he has no worries at home, so he can study while making tea and live comfortably. Wang Lang was once a scholar, but at this time he didn't become an official and lived at home, so he finally comforted him with these four sentences. The mood tends to be leisurely and comfortable, and the sentences are still refined, which shows the "rational interest" pursued by Huangshi.

Most people like the first half of this poem, but in fact, the skill can be seen in the second half of the poem, "Thousands of miles away" and Fang Shudong's "Zhao Wei Zhan Yan" says: "The depth of thinking, the strangeness of the sentence, the health of the pen, the maturity of the medicine, and the length of the valley." To realize this advantage, it is mainly in the second half.
