Appreciation of Xin Qiji's Ode to Yule, Jingkou, Gubei Pavilion and Nostalgia for the Past

Introduction: Yong Yule Jingkou Gu Beiting Nostalgia, written by Xin Qiji, a poet of Southern Song Dynasty, 1205. The author wrote this word with deep anxiety and a cavity of grief and indignation. In the first part, Sun Quan, who established hegemony in Jingkou, and Liu Yu, who led the northern expedition and annexed Land Rover, were praised, and they said that they would make contributions to the country like them. The following film shows with irony Liu Yilong's position and attitude of insisting on resisting gold but opposing rash advance and the country making mistakes. Finally, I use Lian Po's own situation to express my failure to realize my feelings. The emotional expression of this word is mostly repeated by allusions, with a few lyrical comments in the middle to see the spirit, which not only embodies the characteristics of Xin Ci's allusion, but also gives a glimpse of the style of "Ci Theory".

Yongyule Jingkou Gu Bei Pavilion Nostalgia

Xin Qiji

Throughout the ages, heroes are nowhere to be found, and Sun Zhongmou is everywhere. Dancing pavilions and singing platforms always blow away. The setting sun shines on the grassland covered with grass and trees. People say that this was once the place where Emperor Wu of Song lived. Looking back, how powerful he was when he led the Northern Expedition and recovered lost ground!

However, Li Liu Yi Long, the son of Liu Wang Yilong, was a great success and made a swift northern expedition. Instead, he made the Northern Wei Emperor Wu Tuoba fly south and returned to the north bank of the Yangtze River, which was severely hit by his opponent. Forty-three years, I still remember watching it and bonfire Yangzhou Road. Looking back, there is a crow club drum under the beaver temple! Who will ask, how is Lian Po's appetite when he is old?

Throughout the ages, it is difficult to find a hero like Sun Quan. In those days, the dance pavilion and singing platform were still there, but the heroes had already disappeared with the passage of time. The setting sun shone in an ordinary alley covered with grass trees. People say that this is the place where Emperor Wu of Song once lived. Looking back, how brave he was when he led the Northern Expedition and recovered lost ground!

However, Liu Yilong, the son of Emperor Wu of Song, was overjoyed and eager for the Northern Expedition. However, Emperor Tuoba Tao of the Northern Wei Dynasty took the opportunity to send troops to the south and returned to the north bank of the Yangtze River, where he was badly hit by his opponent. I have been back to the south for forty-three years. Looking at the Central Plains, I still remember the war scenes on Yangzhou Road. How can you turn around? At that time, there were sacrifices outside Tuoba GUI Palace, and crows pecked at the sacrifices. People lived a social life and only worshipped him as a god. I didn't know that this was once the emperor's palace. Who else will ask, is Lian Po eating well when he is old?

Throughout the ages, the country remains the same, but there is nowhere to find a hero like Sun Quan. The bustling song and dance pavilions and romantic feasts were blown away by the wind and rain. The setting sun shines on the grass tree, an ordinary old house on the street. Some people say that Liu Yu once lived. Who would have thought that he commanded the Jinge Iron Horse, like a mountain tiger, and swallowed up the mountains and rivers of Wan Li.

Emperor Yuanjia rushed to send troops to make contributions, but he ran for his life and dared not look north. Forty-three years ago, looking at the Central Plains in the distance, I still remember the smoke-filled Yangzhou Road. I can't bear to look back. Now, in the Buddhist temple, drums are rumbling and crows are flying. Who else asked, Lian Po is old, and does she still eat?

This word is a poet's masterpiece, and it is a work that expresses anger when it comes to nostalgia. Through a series of historical figures, such as Sun Quan, Emperor Wu of Song, Liu Yilong and Lian Po, the whole poem expresses the poet's ambition to rejuvenate the country and his grief and indignation that old people cannot be rewarded. Allusions are often used in the whole word, and the words are vigorous and powerful, depressed and sad.

The first part reviews the historical figures who made contributions in Jingkou & Sun Quan and Emperor Wu of Song. The first three sentences of this word are written about Sun Quan in the Three Kingdoms period. "Throughout the ages" refers to Jingkou, a prosperous place throughout the ages. Before Sun Quan moved the capital to Jianye (Nanjing), he built the capital at Jingkou. The poet climbed high and looked far here, and first thought of Sun Quan. The poet worships Sun Quan very much and directly calls him a "hero". On the surface, the poet is praising the ancient heroes, but in fact, he is alluding to the fact that the ruling group of the Southern Song Dynasty is all mediocre people, and there is no such person as Sun Quan. So the poet went on to say, "Dance in the pavilion, sing in Taichung, and the wind and rain always blow away." "Dancing pavilion and singing platform" is generally used to refer to the prosperous life and the powerful politics and military affairs of Dongwu. The powerful Wu Dong and Sun Quan, who dominated Jiangzuo, both disappeared with the passage of time after countless storms, leaving only the descendants of Beijing to watch and mourn.

After the poet wrote Sun Quan, he also wrote a historical figure related to Jingkou-Emperor Wu of Song. Emperor Wu of song grew up in poverty and developed step by step by personal efforts. Based in Jingkou, he rebelled at home and invaded abroad, and finally proclaimed himself emperor and founded the country, replacing the Eastern Jin regime. He made two northern expeditions and recovered a large area south of the Yellow River. The poet summed up these inspiring historical facts in three sentences: "When I think of that year, I swallowed Wan Li like a tiger." People are always obsessed with heroes, so "setting grass and trees, ordinary alleys", that is, the legendary remains of Emperor Wu of Song's former residence, can also arouse people's memories. Here, the poet expressed his nostalgia for the past and wrote his feelings about reality. Both Sun Quan and Liu Yu started their inheritance in the war and established their own countries in the southeast. However, the ruler of the Southern Song Dynasty stayed in Jiangzuo. In contrast, the cowardice of the rulers in the Southern Song Dynasty was more prominent. If it is obvious that the poet expresses the feelings of modern people through ancient meanings in the first part of Ci, then the historical significance revealed by the poet's use of allusions and the realistic feelings expressed in the second part of Ci are even more subtle.

In the first three sentences of the next film, the poet satirizes the historical fact that Liu Yilong, the son of Liu Yu, namely Song Wendi, was defeated in the Northern Expedition, so as to warn the rulers of the Southern Song Dynasty that a hasty crusade against Xu Jin would inevitably lead to unimaginable consequences. Facts confirmed the poet's prediction. The prime minister, Han Biaozhou, ignored the warning and rushed to send troops. As a result, the Northern Expedition failed and Han Biaozhou was punished.

After Yuan Jia Cao Cao, poets began to describe reality. He first described his return to the south. "Forty-three years, I still remember in hope, and I was on fire in Yangzhou Road." The poet returned to the south forty-three years ago, that is, in the thirty-second year of Shaoxing (1 162). Those passionate years of fighting were the beginning of his heroic career. At that time, Song Jun defeated the nomads from the south in Cai Shiji, and the nomads from the south leader Yan Hongliang was also killed by his men. After this war, northern rebel armies rose one after another and attacked Jin people everywhere, which led to the crisis of Jin people's rule in the Central Plains. The situation at this time was very favorable to the Southern Song Dynasty. Song Xiaozong, who just acceded to the throne, also intends to recover his homeland, so he reused Zhang Jun, the leader of the hawk faction, and actively carried out the Northern Expedition. However, Liv's defeat shook Song Xiaozong's determination to resist the enemy, the Korean peace faction regained power, and the Southern Song Dynasty made peace with Xu Jin again. After that, the north-south division entered a relatively stable period. The poet has an empty ambition to resist the enemy, but it can't be realized. After 43 long years, people have gradually forgotten failure and division, and they have become accustomed to reality. Therefore, it is difficult to restore the homeland of the Central Plains. The following two historical scrolls, Fire in Yangzhou and Under the Beaver Temple, reflect the poet's sad mood of remembering the past.

The word "looking back" refers to the reality of the Southern Song Dynasty by using the past events of Liu and Song Dynasties. Yuanjia Northern Expedition, Liu Song's army was defeated. Wu Tai, the emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty, took advantage of the situation and ordered the army to counterattack. He chased Liu Song's army all the way to Guabu Mountain, north of Jiankang, and built a palace on the mountain. This palace later became a temple, and people called it Beaver Temple. The temple was originally a symbol of failure, but the people forgot the failure and went to worship the gods under the Beaver Temple. This temple still existed in the Southern Song Dynasty. Here, the poet alludes to the reality with history, and implicitly expresses his concern: if the imperial court does not recover the lost land quickly, I am afraid that the people will be content with foreign rule and forget that they are subjects of the Great Song Dynasty.

At the end of the article, the poet compared himself to Lian Po, devoted himself to reviving the power of "putting out the fire on Yangzhou Road", changed the situation that people were content with alien rule, won the Northern Expedition, and felt that although he was in his twilight years, his ambition to resist the enemy still existed.

[Appreciation]

This poem is a sentimental poem written by Xin Qiji, a famous writer in the Southern Song Dynasty, when he was the magistrate of Zhenjiang at the age of 66 in 1205, after he boarded Gubeiting in Jingkou.

"Ode to the Jade Pavilion" was written in the first year (1205), and Xin Qiji was 66 years old. At that time, Han Biaozhou was in power and was actively planning the Northern Expedition. Xin Qiji, who has been idle for a long time, was used as a messenger of peace in eastern Zhejiang the year before last, and was appointed as the magistrate of Zhenjiang at the beginning of this spring, guarding Jingkou (now Zhenjiang, Jiangsu), an important place in the defense of the Yangtze River. On the surface, the court seems to attach great importance to him, but in fact it just takes his signboard as a call. After Xin Qiji took office, on the one hand, he actively arranged the preparations for military attack; But on the other hand, he is clearly aware of the sinister political struggle and the loneliness of his own situation, and he is deeply unable to make a difference. Xin Qiji supported the decision of the Northern Expedition to resist gold, but he was worried about the aggression of Han Biaozhou. He thought that we should make full preparations and never rush into it, otherwise it would be inevitable to repeat the same mistakes and make the Northern Expedition fail again. Xin Qiji's opinion did not attract the attention of the Southern Song authorities. Once he came to Gubei Pavilion in Jingkou, looked up, recalled the past, and was deeply touched, so he wrote this masterpiece that has been told for generations.

This word is well chosen, with multiple themes of nostalgia, worrying about the world and expressing meaning. Jiangshan has passed through the ages, and it is impossible to find the hero of that year, and the tone is extraordinary. At first, I felt lyrical. I remembered two famous historical figures, Sun Quan and Liu Yu, from what I saw in front of my eyes to express my yearning for their heroic achievements. Next, it is really worrying to satirize that today's users (Han Zhou) are as hasty as Liu Yilong and want to send troops to the Northern Expedition. Old age is approaching, and the court no longer values itself, so it can't help sighing. Among them, "There is a crow club drum under the beaver temple" is the most painful thing to write about the north.
