Excerpts from the original text:
The court is Tian Shelang, and at dusk it is the palace of the son of heaven. There are no seeds at home, and men should be self-reliant.
Translation:
Princes and princes are not born rich. Children from poor families can work hard and become pillars. My hero should be eager to get rich.
Extended data:
Tales of Wonders is a collection of poems written by Wang Zhu in Song Dynasty. Later generations compiled "prodigy poems" based on some poems by Wang Zhu and other people's poems. In fact, the prodigy poems handed down from generation to generation are not all the works of young prodigies, nor are they all written by Wang Zhu alone, but have been revised and supplemented by the poems of Sui and Tang Dynasties and even the Northern and Southern Dynasties.
Most titles are added separately. Poetry is a five-character quatrain, with neat meter and easy-to-understand words, which is a model for teenagers to learn poetry.
Wang Zhu was born in a county magistrate's family. He has been smart and studious since childhood. He can write poetry at the age of nine and is known as a child prodigy. His title of "child prodigy" began with such a story:
One day, the magistrate of Yinxian led Juren and scholars from the whole county to visit the Confucius icon in the Confucius Temple. After three kneels and nine knocks, the magistrate suddenly found a poem written in charcoal on the wall of the hall:
Yan Hui watches the stars at night, and the master walks in the rain.
How many officials have been issued since then, and who is willing to repair their money?
The inscription below bears the name of a nine-year-old boy, Wang Zhu.
The magistrate looked around the hall. Not only is the hall dilapidated, but the icons of Confucius and Yan Hui also lack shoulders, which is really degrading and shameful. But on second thought, how can a nine-year-old child write such a poem? I'm afraid someone is pretending to be a child and deliberately satirizing me? Thinking of this, he said to the officer, "Go and find out what kind of person this Wang Zhu is and invite him to see me."
