The meaning of Baqiao breaking willows

Question 1: What is the allusion to the willow tree breaking down in Baqiao? The allusion of the willows breaking off the Ba Bridge According to historical records, the construction of bridges on the Ba River began in the Spring and Autumn Period. Duke Mu of Qin dominated Xirong, changed Zishui to Bashui, and built a bridge on the river, so it was called "Baqiao". According to historical records, this is the oldest stone pillar pier bridge in my country. In the third year of Emperor Wang Mang's reign (AD 22), Baqiao suffered a flood. Wang Mang thought it was not a good omen, so he changed the name of the bridge to "Changcun Bridge". The Ba Bridge that was exposed by the water this time is the Sui Bridge. It was built in the Sui Dynasty (583 AD). It is called "South Bridge" because it is south of the original Ba Bridge site. The Ba Bridge across the Ba River is an important passage between Chang'an and the vast area in the east. "Xi'an Prefecture Chronicles" says: "On both sides of Baqiao, there are embankments built for five miles, and thousands of willows are planted. Tourists rub shoulders with each other, which is the grandeur of Chang'an." Whenever the spring breeze blows in the face, catkins fly all over the sky, forming a beautiful scenery. A great view of Baqiao in Chang'an. "What does the heavy snow look like?" "It doesn't look like catkins blowing up due to the wind." Xie Daoyun of the Eastern Jin Dynasty made a wonderful couplet of "catkins" and "snowflakes", making "Baliu Wind and Snow" one of the eight scenic spots in Guanzhong. According to the record of "Sanfu Huangtu Bridge": "Baqiao is located in the east of Chang'an, and it is built as a bridge across the water. People send guests to this bridge and break willows to say goodbye."

Question 2: What does "Baqiao breaks willows" mean? I just want the meaning! ! ! After people leave Chang'an City and arrive at Bahe River, they must say goodbye on the Ba Bridge.

If you understand, please accept it. If you have any questions, please ask!

Please ask for help if you have new questions, thank you!

Question 3: Please tell me the meaning of breaking willows in Baqiao. The word folding willows first appeared in Han Yuefu's "Song of Breaking Willows" First in the middle.

When you mount your horse, you don’t catch the whip, but instead bend the willow branch.

Later generations used broken willows to hide the sadness of separation, and some also hinted at homesickness.

Why should the Qiang flute blame the willows? The spring breeze does not pass through Yumen Pass. (Wang Zhihuan in "Liangzhou Ci")

The willow in this refers to two things. One is the real willow tree outside the Great Wall, and the other is the bent willow tree. It implies the homesickness of the soldiers guarding the border.

The word "break willow" means "seeing farewell and cherishing the distance":

In ancient my country, once relatives and friends separated, the sender would always break a willow stick and give it to the person far away. Walker. The word "Zheliu" means "farewell". Our country's custom of "breaking willows to see off" was first seen in "Xiaoya; Picking Wei" in my country's first collection of poems, "The Book of Songs": "In the past I left, and the willows clung to them; now I come to think about them, and the rain and snow are falling." In ancient times, the willow tree was also called Xiaoyang or Yangliu. Because "Liu" and "Liu" are homophonic, it can mean to stay. Giving a willow as a parting gift expresses the inseparability, the inability to bear to say goodbye, and the reluctance to leave. There is "Breaking Willow Branches" in the Northern Dynasties Yuefu's "Horizontal Drum and Horn Blowing Music". The lyrics are: "When I get on my horse, I don't catch the whip, but instead bend the willow branches. When I get off my horse, I play the horizontal flute and worry about killing the guests."

Li Bai "Every year "The Color of Willows, Baling Farewell" illustrates such a custom: In ancient times, on both sides of the Ba Bridge in Chang'an, there was a ten-mile long embankment, with a willow per step. Many people going east from Chang'an came here to say goodbye and break willow branches to say goodbye to their relatives. Bai Juyi's "Qingmen Willow" "To bid farewell to many people near the capital, the long strips are broken to reduce the spring breeze." Yu Xuanji's "Breaking Willows" "Farewell to each other with weeping flowers, and the willow smoke is broken in the spring breeze." "Breaking willows to say goodbye" contains the meaning It is a kind of good wish for friends that "spring is always there", and it also means that leaving a loved one's hometown is like a willow branch. I hope that when he goes to a new place, he can quickly take root and sprout, just like a willow branch that can live anywhere.

People break willows to send each other away when they say goodbye, and they also break willows to express their feelings when they miss their relatives and old friends. The word "Zheliu" also means "Huaiyuan". Zhang Jiuling "folded willows delicately and sent them to my lover"; Li Bai "climbed strips to fold the spring scenery and sent them far away in front of the Dragon Court"; Li Bai "Send Deputy Liu Liu to the Qin Dynasty in Xuancheng" "If you don't make people long for lovesickness, break the branches of willows." Li Bai's "Hearing the Flute in Luo City on a Spring Night": "The sound of someone's jade flute is flying quietly, spreading into the spring breeze all over Luo City. In this nocturne, hearing broken willows, who can't help but feel the love of hometown?"

Question 4: " The meaning of the song "The Bridge Willow". What does it express? I have been paying attention to the song "Baqiaoliu" for a long time, because its tune and melody are different from ordinary songs. Based on my impression, I thought it was adapted from an ancient poem. Later, I asked the music teacher "Baqiaoliu" What does it mean? She also shook her head. It seemed that writing lyrics and composing songs were done by different people. The tune of "Baqiaoliu" is a kind of Qin Opera, popular in Shaanxi, Gansu, Qinghai, Ningxia, Xinjiang and other places in northwest my country. One of the characteristics of the singing tune is the "color tune", which is sung with a falsetto, an octave high, and multi-purpose Where the characters' emotions are agitated and their emotional development has ups and downs. The drawl must be classified as "an" rhyme. It is full, hearty and expressive, which is clearly different from other singing styles. The singing style of Qinqiang can be divided into happy sounds and bitter sounds. As the name suggests, Huanyin is good at expressing cheerful and joyful emotions; Bitteryin is suitable for expressing sadness, anger and desolation. All these require the performer to grasp the artistic conception of the lyrics in order to better express the auxiliary singing method of emotion. The singing tune of "Baqiao Liu" should be bitter. "Baqiao Liu" is another song written by Chen Xiaoqi based on the imagery of ancient poetry after "The Sound of the Waves Are Still". When I hear it, I immediately think of Li Bai's "Recalling Qin E": "The sound of the flute swallows. Qin E's dream breaks the moon over Qin Lou. The moon over Qin Lou, the willows are colored every year, and Baling is sad to say goodbye."

Willow - since the Han Dynasty, broken willows have often been given as gifts to convey the feeling of attachment and farewell, thus triggering the longing for relatives far away and the homesickness of travelers. For example, "Hearing the Flute in Luocheng on a Spring Night": The sound of someone's jade flute flies darkly, spreading into the spring breeze and filling Luocheng. Hearing broken willows in this nocturne, who can't feel the love for his hometown? Because "liu" and "liu" are homophonic, the ancients often broke willows and sent them to each other when bidding farewell to express their deep feelings of leaving. This custom began in the Han Dynasty and flourished in the Tang Dynasty. In the Han Dynasty, there was the song "Breaking Willows", which was played to express farewell. The Baling Bridge in Xi'an during the Tang Dynasty was the only place for people to say goodbye to Chang'an when traveling across the country. The Baling Bridge was shaded by willows on both sides, so it became a famous place for the ancients to fold willows to say goodbye (today, in The Ba Bridge, the only bridge to go to Xi'an, still stands over the Ba River. I wonder if it was built on the original site of the Baling Bridge, and I don't know if there are willow trees there. The origin of the farewell allusion. Therefore, Wen Tingyun's poem "There are so many separations on the green poplar street". Liu Yong expresses the sadness of parting in "Yulin Ling" with "Where will I wake up tonight, on the bank of willows, with the dawn wind and the waning moon". Why did the ancients like to use willow to express their feelings? The willow tree is green every year, with catkins flying gently, branches brushing softly, and leaves dancing. It is too delicate to be touched and rubbed with the slightest roughness, and too soft to be touched by any hardness. And crashing love. Only the spring breeze, which understood her feelings best, quietly brought warm love and covered her with intoxicating green, which was as thin as silkworm wings, as bright as egg white, and as delicate as a baby's face; only the spring rain, which knew her thoughts best, gently covered her with green. Whisper softly into her ear, sprinkle her body with crystal, and make her glow with the vitality of life. It is the vitality that has passed through wind, frost, rain and snow, filtered out the dust of the years, and is extremely fresh and exuberant. Willow is the messenger of spring. Du Fu has a poem: "The color of the snow in the mausoleum is still day lily, and the spring light is the willow tree." It tells that willow is the forecaster of spring breath, so since ancient times, people have loved willow, resulting in many willow-related Folk customs and interesting Liu culture. The ancients gave willows as gifts with two meanings: first, willows grow easily and quickly, and sending friends with them means that they will flourish no matter where they go, while the soft and delicate willow silk symbolizes endless love. Secondly, willow is a homophonic pronunciation of "liu", and breaking willows as gifts means "to retain". Breaking willows to express feelings, hoping that willows will cherish someone, and painting willows to express homesickness have become the most genuine and detailed ways to express parting emotions. The love here includes nostalgia, "I heard the broken willows in this nocturne, who can't bear the love of hometown." There is family love, "my father was troubled from traveling to the west, and his family broke the willows in front of the door." There is friendship, "Weicheng guests wander around in the morning rain. The house is green and the willows are new. I urge you to have a glass of wine, and there is no old friend in the west. "Of course, the most chanted thing is love, "Slim willows are broken, and the willows are short and long, separated by the shade of flowers. People are far away and the world is close." No matter which one, it is particularly true, profound and touching because of Liu, the medium that can most affect people's beautiful and sentimental feelings. Places with willow trees and poplar flowers that have typical symbolic significance, such as in front of homes, at the mouth of creeks, beside small bridges, Jindu, river embankments, etc., are often visited by people breaking willows, holding willows, and crying. The place where we look at each other and choke in silence is the spiritual habitat where people write and chant their feelings of separation. From the rise of the Han Dynasty to the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, the willows on both sides of the Taiwan Strait were as green as smoke and full of emotions... >>

Question 5: Who knows where Baqiao is? Also, what’s the allusion to it? I remember there is a word called Baqiao Yangliu, right? What does it mean? Jiang Feng's Fishing Fire: Willows Broken at Baqiao

In 750 AD, the day after autumn.

Outside Chang'an City, by the Baling Bridge, in the Ten Mile Pavilion, a group of scholars saw off a scholar in a green shirt.

The scholar in green shirt is in his early twenties, with handsome eyes and eyebrows, but his expression is lonely, and his eyes are even more desolate.

After three rounds of drinking, the scholar in green shirt stood up from the table, bowed his head and said: "I miss you Zhang Ji. I studied hard for ten years in a cold window, and this picture became famous all over the world. But unexpectedly, bad luck, unexpectedly... My name has fallen from Sun Mountain, and I really can’t see my elders in my hometown. My brother’s great friendship will be remembered forever.”

A young man in white stepped forward and held his hand, “Don’t be sad, stepbrother. , with your talent, why worry about not being able to achieve fame and success? I don’t know when, what year, month, time and where will I be able to hang out at night and talk happily again?"

Zhang Ji said sadly: "Wandering around the world. , the world is wandering, I'm afraid there will be no future."

The young man in white suddenly looked sad: "Brother, where do you want to go?"

"I have heard for a long time that there is a paradise above. There are Suzhou and Hangzhou, so I want to buy a boat and travel eastward to the south of the Yangtze River. I wonder if the beautiful mountains and rivers of the south of the Yangtze River can comfort my heart."

"In late spring in March, there are grasses growing in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are many peanut trees and orioles. Flying around." The young man in white chanted and chuckled, "The scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is beautiful and beauties are like clouds. May my brother get his wish and be happy for the rest of his life."

A small boat followed the waves beside the Ba Bridge. Up, down, anything. There is an old boatman standing on the bow of the boat, about fifty years old, with white hair and silver beard, and a strong spirit.

Zhang Ji moved onto the boat, turned around and cupped his hands and said, "Now that I'm in this boat, I will drift with the tide and be content with whatever happens. Brothers, please take care."

Everyone was reluctant to leave.

Along the Baling River, there are green willows. But times have changed and it is late autumn. The branches are dead and the leaves are yellow, swaying feebly in the curling autumn wind, which is infinitely desolate.

The young man in white broke off a section of willow branch and hung it on the side of the ship. He shed tears and said: "We are fighting to cross the Ba Bridge. Don't forget to see others off on the bridge. I just regret that time is lost, the white horse flies by, and my brother is separated in a hurry. I can't talk about my feelings. Although we say goodbye today, there will be a time to see you again. "

Everyone said goodbye. Zhang Ji turned around speechlessly, fearing that his tears would pour down. The green shirt rustled in the river breeze. The Baling River gurgles and flows eastward.

The old boatman looked on with cold eyes, sighing while rocking the oar.

Suddenly the sound of tapping songs sounded on the shore:

The city gate assists the three Qin Dynasties, and the wind and smoke look out to the five Jin Dynasties.

I want to say goodbye to you, both are eunuchs.

There are close friends in the sea, and they are like neighbors in the world.

If you go astray by doing nothing, your children will be stained by the towel.
