Farewell to the viceroy and go to Shu to take up his post.
Tang Dynasty: Wang Bo
Across the wall of Sanqin, across a layer of fog, across a river.
We said goodbye sadly, and our two officials went in opposite directions.
After all, the world is just a small place.
Why are you wandering at the fork in the road? The child is holding a towel.
Creative background: The author of Farewell to Vice Governor Du for Shu made it when he was in Chang 'an. "Shaofu" is a general term for county commandant in Tang Dynasty. Du Shaofu will be an official in Sichuan, and Wang Bo will send him a farewell poem in Chang 'an.
Explanation:
The majestic Chang 'an guards the land of Sanqin and sees Wujin through the clouds.
When I left you, I had infinite affection in my heart, because we were all floating in the sea of officials.
As long as there is your confidant in the world, even if you are far away, you are like a close neighbor.
Never break up at a fork in the road, like a child, sad and wet with tears.
