Under the Xijiang River, there is a cool breeze in Xu Lai.

Xin Qiji, a famous poet in the Southern Song Dynasty, wrote the poem "Walking along the Huangsha Road on a Moonlight in Xijiang", which is unique in his works and is very worth appreciating.

Xijiang moonlit tour of Huangsha Road ~ Xin Qiji

The moon on the horizon rose to the top of the tree, scaring away the magpies perched on the branches. The cool evening breeze seems to have spread to cicadas in the distance.

In the fragrance of rice and flowers, people talk about the harvest of a year, and frogs croak in their ears, as if in a bumper harvest year. In the old days, Maodian was near the forest, and the road turned to the stream bridge.

The bright moon on the horizon rose to the treetops, scaring the magpies perched on the branches. The cool evening breeze seems to blow the cicadas in the distance. In the fragrant rice, people are talking about the harvest year, and there are waves of frogs in their ears, as if talking about the harvest year.

There are faint clouds in the sky, twinkling stars appear and disappear, and there is light rain in front of the mountain. In order to avoid rain, I hurried across the stream from the bridge. Where did the hut shop by the Woods near the Land Temple go before? Turning a corner, Maodian suddenly appeared in front of us.

Walking along Huangsha Road in Xijiang Moonlight is a poem written by Xin Qiji when he was relegated to Jiangxi, describing the night scene of Huangsha Ridge.

The moon is bright and the wind is cool, the stars are sparse and the rain is sparse, the magpies are startled and cicadas are chirping, the rice flowers are fragrant and the frogs are chirping.

These vivid and natural scenery are picturesque.

Huangshaling, 40 miles west of Shangrao County, is about 15 feet high, deep and open, and can accommodate 100 people. There are two springs below, and water flows out of the stone, which can irrigate more than ten acres of fields. This area is not only beautiful, but also a good area for irrigation and water conservancy.

Xijiangyue, the name of Jiao Fang Qupai in Tang Dynasty, was later used as the name of epigraph.

"Xijiang Moon" is taken from a line in Li Bai's poem "Visiting the Ancient": "Today, there is only Xijiang Moon, which once took photos of people in the Wu Palace".

Xijiang is another name for the Yangtze River. This song was originally used to sing the story of peace and history.

Huangsha Road refers to a rural highway about 20 kilometers from Maodian in Huangsha Village, Huangsha Ling Township, Shangrao County, Jiangxi Province to Huangsha Ling in Dawu Village.

This road was a prosperous official road leading directly to Shangrao ancient city in the Southern Song Dynasty.

The word "bright moon surprises magpie" means that the bright moonlight wakes up the magpie sleeping on the branch.

The word was inspired by Su Shi's poem:

"The bright moon surprised the magpie, but it floated with it."

Other branches, that is, oblique branches.

"Seven or eight stars are outside the sky, and two or three points of rain are in front of the mountain", and the source of these two sentences also has a source, which comes from the poem recorded in "Lessons":

"Two or three pieces of electricity want to rain, and there are seven or eight stars in the sky."

Ancient poems are beautiful, but the words are more beautiful.

Poetry in Tang and Song Dynasties is a treasure in the cultural history of China. People are familiar with the Tang Dynasty, but they don't know much about the Song Dynasty.

In fact, the artistic achievements of Song Ci are higher.

Because the writing techniques of ci are stricter and more demanding than poetry. Many literati can write poems, but not necessarily words. Those who are good at writing words must be good at writing poems.

The Song Dynasty is a unique dynasty in the history of China, with a very prosperous culture and economy.

Chen Yinque, a famous historian, said: "Chinese civilization reached its peak during the Zhao and Song Dynasties.".

The glory and glory of this dynasty should be faced squarely.

The Song Dynasty was the peak of China's cultural prosperity, but it suffered great humiliation because the foreign enemy was too strong, so the records in the history books were rather dim.

That great shame is the "shame of Jingkang" that made the Northern Song Dynasty subjugate.

Yue Fei wrote in "Man Jiang Hong": "Jingkang is ashamed, it is still snowing. When did the courtiers hate it? "

That great shame is a lingering shadow in the hearts of Song people.

After the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhao Jiazong crossed the river to establish political power, which was called the "Southern Song Dynasty" in history, and since then he has lived in the south of the Yangtze River.

The Southern Song emperors and others were obsessed with power, content with the status quo, and unwilling to risk the Northern Expedition to recover their homeland. The soldiers and civilians in the Southern Song Dynasty were obsessed with cleaning up old mountains and rivers.

Yue Fei is one of them.

Yue Fei is a famous strategist, militarist, calligrapher, poet and anti-Jin hero in the history of our country, ranking first among the four generals of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty.

He is brave, proficient in the art of war, invincible, loyal to the country, and committed to washing away the shame of the previous dynasty.

His Yue family army was so powerful that Jin Jun was shocked and sighed, "It is easy to shake the mountain, but difficult to shake the Yue family army!"

Journey to the south, the Yue Jiajun, recovered the lost land in an excellent form, only forty miles away from Kaifeng, the old capital of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Unfortunately, Song Gaozong won 12 gold medals in succession and urged his team to return to North Korea.

Yue Fei returned to the DPRK and was imprisoned on charges of "unwarranted".

Finally, he died of injustice.

Before he died, he left eight words: "Day after day, day after day!"

Eight words, every word is shocking.

After Yue Fei's wrongful death, the hearts of ordinary people were so desolate. It's hard to understand that kind of emotion outside the present world.

After Song Xiaozong acceded to the throne, Yue Fei was rehabilitated and pursued "Wu Mu", and then pursued "loyalty to Wu" to seal the king of Hubei.

Yue Fei was finally rehabilitated 20 years after his death and was honored as "King of Yue Wumu".

It's just that the only important thing in life is now. Success after death won't help.

How lonely, lonely and sad was Yue Fei before his death?

No one can understand.

Xin Qiji was only two years old when Yue Fei died.

Xin Qiji was born in the north. At that time, all the north was occupied and surrendered to the state of Jin.

Surrender does not mean acceptance. People in enemy-occupied areas often spontaneously organize insurgents to resist gold.

Xin Qiji is a young hero who grew up in the uprising army.

A.D. 1 16 1 year (the 31st year of Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty), 2 1 year-old Xin Qiji rallied 2,000 people, joined the huge rebel army led by Geng Jing, and served as the principal book. At that time, the internal contradictions of the Jin people broke out, and the gold Lord Yan Hongliang was killed by his men at the front line, and 8 Jin Army withdrew northward. Xin Qiji was ordered to contact the Southern Song Dynasty court. On his way back from his mission, he heard that Geng Jing was killed by the traitor Zhang Anguo, and the rebel army was dissolved. He led more than 50 people to attack tens of thousands of enemy camps, brought traitors back to Jiankang and handed them over to the Southern Song Dynasty court for execution.

Xin Qiji's amazing courage and decisiveness made him famous for a while.

Song Gaozong appointed him as a signing judge in Jiangyin and started his career in the Southern Song Dynasty at the age of 25.

When Xin Qiji first came to the south, he didn't understand the cowardice and cowardice of the Southern Song Dynasty court. At the beginning of his tenure, he wrote many suggestions on resisting the Northern Expedition of Jin Dynasty, the most famous of which was Ten Treatises on Meiqin.

Although these suggestions were praised by the people and widely circulated at that time, the court was indifferent and only interested in Xin Qiji's practical ability in the suggestions. He was sent to Jiangxi, Hubei, Hunan and other places as an important local official, responsible for managing famine relief and rectifying social order.

Reality is cruel to Xin Qiji.

Although he is outstanding in talent, his heroic and stubborn personality and persistent enthusiasm for the Northern Expedition make it difficult for him to gain a foothold in officialdom.

In the eighth year of Song Xiaozong Xichun (1 18 1), Xin Qiji was dismissed from office because of being pushed out by treacherous court officials, and returned to Shangrao, where he lived for nearly fifteen years and lived in seclusion.

During this period, he created a large number of words, and this song "Walking on the Yellow Sand Road on a Moonlight in Xijiang" is one of the representatives.

"Walking along Huangsha Road on a Moonlight Night in Xijiang River" only describes simple rural life, revealing lightness and beauty between the lines. Perhaps only Xin Qiji knows the kind of disappointment and sadness that is difficult to express.

Perhaps, these quiet and beautiful natural scenery can make him feel a little comfort. After all, the tone of the whole word is comfortable and quiet.

Times determine people's fate, which is my understanding after reading many ancient poems.
