The Eight Tones of Ganzhou, Old General Drinks Back at Night, is the work of Xin Qiji, a famous poet in the Southern Song Dynasty. The whole poem combines historical allusions, predecessors' poems and their own feelings, which clearly embodies the characteristics of using allusions in Xin Ci.
Excerpts are as follows:
Who asked mother sang for a short coat and a horse to move to Nanshan? See romantic generosity, Tan Xiao spend his old age. Han debuted and became famous in Wan Li. Even then, healthy people used to be idle. Outside the screen window, it is drizzling and slightly cold. ?
The translation is as follows:
Who will go to Duqu to grow mulberry and hemp? I'm not going. I want to put on a light jacket, ride a horse and go to Nanshan to learn Li Guang's life of fighting tigers. I want romance, passion, laughter, happiness and a happy old age.
The cause of opening up the territory, fighting the invaders and defending the frontier in the Han Dynasty was great, and many people made great contributions to Wan Li's frontier. However, when talents were badly needed at that time, why did a courageous and talented man like General Li Guang quit his job and live in seclusion? While I was meditating, outside the screen window, there was a faint coolness from the oblique wind and drizzle.

Creation background
Xin Qiji was 23 years old and resisted gold. He has made many achievements since he returned to South China. But because of his integrity, he dared to crack down on evil forces and was hated by traitors in the DPRK. Not only did he fail to realize the ideal of restoring the Central Plains, but he was also falsely accused of various crimes and was removed from his official position in his prime. His experience is similar to that of Li Guang, a famous scholar in China.
works appreciation
Xin Qiji's first sentence contains many previous poems. But this word is by no means simply copying the sentences of the ancients, but adding vivid imagination and deep feelings when it contains the sentences of predecessors.
As mentioned above, I wrote about the night events in Baling, and added the imagination of "carving saddles in the pavilion" to make the scene realistic. Writing about fighting tigers, coupled with the imagination of "breaking stones and shocking strings", feels more vivid and energetic. The question, "Han started in Wanli, became famous in Wanli, and even the healthy people were once idle", was full of anger and words, and it took several twists and turns to finish the meaning. He is sincere and full of infinite grief and indignation. This word is not only lyrical and touching, but also innovative in language, which is a rare masterpiece.
Baidu Encyclopedia-Klang gave birth to Ganzhou, so the general came back after drinking at night.
