Yang Zui's early works can be found in the bronze inscriptions of the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Book of Changes. There is such a passage in Zhouyi: "A dead young man lives in a nest, and an old man gets his wife. There is no harm. " We can know that in ancient times, poplar was a kind of tree with long life and easy survival. New leaves grow on the dead old poplar, and the old man marries his wife, just like poplar inherits new vitality.
Poplar at this time refers to all the waterside trees in Salicaceae. This natural tree grows rapidly and is easy to survive. It is the most practical building material and household tree species for ancient people. The so-called willow is the willow.
"I left yesterday, willow, a..
The road is muddy and difficult to walk, and people are thirsty and hungry. "The Book of Songs adopts EU.
An ordinary soldier, who went through hardships and was displaced from place to place, set foot on his way home. When he left, he saw the willow tree, which used to sway in the spring breeze, and his young wife was reluctant to part. But now, when he came back, the snow had covered the road, and the willows stood in the boundless Amb Lee, only vaguely recognizing their appearance. Does his wife know the news of his return? In short, he stepped into the village in the snow, waiting for him, may still be unknown.
Willow is the tree of home. At this time, folding willows may not be popular, but the warmth brought by willow branches to ease home stability is unique.
"Dongfanghong unknown so, the other way around to wear clothes.
Clothes make pants make clothes, and the public makes me anxious.
The broken wicker fence glared fiercely at the real bully.
No matter day or night, the evildoer will never be late. "Week? The Book of Songs is unknown in the East? 》
In The Book of Songs Unknown to the East, the resentment of aristocratic officials in the Zhou Dynasty is written. Get dressed in a hurry in the middle of the night before dawn in the East.
Dress casually. Why are you so busy? This is because the court has ordered that you must arrive.
Farmers who have no education and build small-scale houses at will by folding willows in the countryside occupy an important position in the court at this time.
The imperial edict is absurd, day and night, and I don't know the time, which is outrageous.
People who are in charge of important government decrees will definitely not be farmers, but here, we use "folding willows and fanning gardens" to describe each other's vulgar power, just like farmers who are half scooping water in rural areas.
Then this poem brings people another message, that is, in the Zhou Dynasty, it was a very common phenomenon for farmers to build land partitions and yard fences with broken wicker. In other words, the survival and utilization of willow cuttings must have been before the Zhou Dynasty and extended to ancient times.
The Han Dynasty was an era of great unity and heroism. Baqiao is in the east of Chang 'an. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Qin Mugong ruled Xirong and built Baqiao Bridge to connect the main traffic trunk lines in the east of Xi. For Chang 'an, the geographical location here is very important, but there are often floods. Ancient wise people planted willows here to stabilize the foundation of Baqiao Bridge.
Sanfu Huang Tu Bridge: "? Baqiao is in the east of Chang 'an. A bridge across the water. Han people see off guests at this bridge and fold willows to see them off. Wang Mang, when? Floods can't save thousands of people. Bridges are long bridges. "
This is the Eastern Han Dynasty or a period not far from the Han Dynasty. I wrote a book on the geography of the capital, which clearly stated that folding willows was a farewell custom in Chang 'an of the Western Han Dynasty. At this time, the banks of Baqiao Bridge should be densely covered with willows and frequent chariots and horses. In addition to domestic farewell, there are various international traders here, from north to south. More people and more houses naturally form a farewell culture.
First, folding willows or seedlings to bid farewell is a folk custom, or it originated from the people earlier. I hope the other party will not forget to take root in their own home.
Second, Yangliuyiyi has the meaning of retaining.
Third, this culture can be formed here because there are more people and more willows. There are official and folk tree planting activities in early spring, and the survival rate of willow trees is high. In the Western Han Dynasty, folding willows was a farewell culture driven by multiple factors and became a custom.
If you cross the Baqiao Bridge in the Western Han Dynasty, the merchants here sell all kinds of willow branches shipped from other places. Everyone has one in his hand, wearing a willow wreath on his head, which is definitely a landscape. Because there are more willow trees in Baqiao, it can't stand the wave after wave of people climbing. In fact, folding willow and planting willow have been in parallel.
So soon, this custom of breaking willows to bid farewell spread from Beijing to other places.
Fortunately, willows grow fast and are everywhere.
"The vast spring hair, Liu He Yi.
Birds come back from the south and fly on my branches. "The eastern han dynasty? Zhang heng's song
Zhang Heng is the person who invented the seismograph. Here, at least people in the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty loved willow trees.
When the mighty east wind blows, the sunshine and warmth make the willows send out flexible branches.
Countless birds came from the south and circled on the branches.
The willow here uses the word "I" in the first person, which proves that the status of willow has finally changed from an idyllic tree species in the Western Zhou Dynasty to an urban tree species that everyone likes. Among them, Baqiao Ada contributed a lot. In order to prevent floods, willow trees became the beautiful scenery of the empire. In some poems of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the road leading to the palace is lined with thin willows.
Folding willows prevailed in Wei and Jin Dynasties. From xelloss and Wei Wendi to ordinary people, Yang's poems have been left behind.
"Trees by the blue river, green fields and grass.
If you leave my hometown, you will find Wan Li Road.
The wife took the clothes, wiped her tears and hugged her.
Still attached to the young boy, Gu Tuo's brother and sister-in-law.
Who makes you poor? What do you think? "Cao Wei? Excerpted from Cao Pi's Folding Willow
This is an era of war, and people bid farewell to the willows with endless parting thoughts. Although Cao Pi was not as talented as his younger brother Cao Zhi, before he became emperor, he was still a very grounded aristocratic child. He also saw the endless pain brought by the war. This poem is written for a friend, because his friend happens to be traveling in other places and has a wife at home.
He can imagine each other saying goodbye to his wife and children by the willow river. His wife was still pulling his clothes, and the other party entrusted the child to his wife and brother and sister-in-law. Because the family was poor, they said goodbye with tears. Although only the gloomy riverside trees are used in the article, the title is marked as "folding willow" This poem does not write willow, but it is as inseparable as parting, and it is difficult to give up.
"Spring breeze is still depressed. Leave the past and come back.
Hard work takes time. Fold willow.
Full of worries. Calendars are a mess. " ? Wei and Jin dynasties? Anonymous Mid-Autumn Festival Thirteen Willow Songs? One? Song of the first month
There are thirteen folk songs sung by the month, and there are even songs of leap month. This is a real folk song.
In every poem, there is a broken willow. First, this group of songs is the embodiment of customs, which revolves around the broken willow. Second, every sentence has a broken willow, which keeps pushing up this farewell mood, just like an affectionate auxiliary word, which aggravates the situation and feelings.
The spring breeze is still young, everything is depressing, the past time has passed, but spring is coming again.
Yang Liuzhi in my hand, I am unhappy all day, full of worries and confusion.
Then why is she like this? She struggled to stay because the person she loved left her.
In thirteen months, she was unhappy when she saw all the flowers and happiness between people. She only has willows in her heart, and her worried husband can't come back, or move on, or life and death are unknown.
She tossed and turned in the pain of lovesickness and often had to comfort herself. It looks really sad and touching.
If such a song is sung repeatedly, I am afraid that tears can feed a willow tree.
During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, folding willows on the one hand represented farewell, and on the other hand, it was one of the activities of enjoying spring in early spring, because at this time, tender willows could be cut alive, and folding willows was the custom of walking in early spring. Of course it contains acacia.
"Wushan Wuxia is long, and weeping willows are weeping willows.
Concentric and overlapping, the old friend is pregnant with his hometown.
The mountains are like lotus flowers and flow like bright moonlight.
On a cold night, apes are screaming and vagrants are crying. "Nanliang? Xiao Yi, fold willow? 》
This is the folding willow of Xiao Yi, the king of the Eastern Jin Dynasty of Liang Guoxiang in the Northern and Southern Dynasties. At this time, he 17 years old and his younger brother Xiaogang is 22 years old. His brother, as expensive as he is, is one of Wang Zizhong. At this time, Xiao Yi had the opportunity to come to his brother's residence and spend the New Year with him.
These two men are brothers, and Xiao Yi especially understands his brother's feelings as a teenager.
This canyon in Wushan, Sichuan is steep and long, and there are the most beautiful weeping willows and weeping willows here.
Your brother and I are United, folding willows together and missing Nanjing's hometown together.
The mountains here are like lotus flowers, standing one after another. The moonlight hits the mountains here, and it is gloomy, beautiful and steep everywhere.
I listen to the ape's cry with you in the middle of the night, and I can know that you miss your hometown.
"Willow disorderly into silk, spring to climb.
Flourishing birds fly on the road, and the wind is light and the flowers are late.
The city is tall and short, and the forest is empty and sad.
There is no other meaning in the song, nor is it for lovesickness. "Nanliang? Three crosswind songs by Xiao Gang and the King of Eastern Hunan? One? Folding willows)?
Xiao Gang is the younger brother of Xiao Yi, the king of eastern Hunan. They are five years apart. They have a childhood and a teenager who trusted each other, and they have very pure brotherly feelings.
This poem was written when he was 22 years old. Facing my brother who came from afar, I was very sad to accompany him in Sichuan for the New Year. What's more, my brother personally plays the flute to celebrate the early spring willows here. He wrote back.
It is also the early spring when the willows are like silk, and it is also the most beautiful January season when the willows are green.
Every day, the willows are luxuriant and dense, covering the oriole and not seeing their flight path, but the spring breeze is warm and the plum blossoms are flying.
I stand on this wall with you. What I see is my hard work, and I think of the unfinished war.
And I listened to the broken willow you blew and heard the deep affection in my heart. It misses me, and I can't bear to leave.
I think it's well written. At this time, Xiao Gang and his younger brother Xiao Yi are both princes, and they have not fully understood the blood shed as adults. The value lies in the friendship and impression of this prince.
Later, Xiao Gang became emperor from the prince, and was killed under the control of treacherous court official Hou Jing. Xiao Yi rose to destroy Hou Jing and avenge him.
This is a rare sincere brother in history.
Then we can see that during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Sichuan also had the custom of breaking willows in early spring.
It is also a custom to fold willows in the first month. Of course, in this brother's poem, the beauty of lovesickness is superimposed.
Then in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, especially in the Tang Dynasty, after Baqiao Bridge was rebuilt, willows were planted. At this time, willows were mostly weeping willows from Sichuan, which were spectacular, soft and historic. There are many kinds of city palaces, and the farewell of willows became a grand parting landscape in Beijing after the Han Dynasty, and many beautiful poems about the farewell of willows were born.
Tracing back to history, we can know that folding willows originated from the people, and they are endless and reluctant to part. With the meanings of blessing, retaining and welcoming the spring, Chang 'an in Han Dynasty was the peak of its rise. It became popular among the people in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and in the Tang Dynasty, it formed a prosperous culture of folding willow poems.
The following is a detailed introduction to the folding willow poems in the Tang Dynasty.
The first coat is better than snow to explain the love and beauty in the poem for you. .
