In "Night Crying on the Wall of a Homeward Poem", I wrote about what the poet expected when he boarded the rostrum.

Li Yi, a poet in the middle Tang Dynasty, wrote the seven-character poem "Shouting at Night on the Fragrant Wall". The whole poem does not use any allusions related to Tao Yuanming, an idyllic poet in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

This poem, which uses Tao Yuanming's related allusions, is another poem by Cen Can, a famous frontier poet in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and it is also a famous frontier poem "Thinking about Chang 'an's Hometown on March 9th" in the Tang Dynasty. The allusions related to Tao Yuanming used in the poem are wine and chrysanthemums.

Compare these two poems at a glance:

Listen to the night flute from the wall of Shouxiang

Don

The sand in front of Huilongfeng (a beacon tower) is like snow.

The moon outside the city is like frost.

I don't know where to play the flute.

One night, I want to see my hometown.

March for nine days, thinking about Chang' an home.

Tang Censhen

On the ninth festival of the ninth day of September, I reluctantly climbed to the heights to look out, but no one could deliver wine in the marching war.

I look at my hometown Chang 'an with a heavy heart. The chrysanthemums around this battlefield are scattered.
