Problem description:
Yuan Mei, a great scholar in Ming Dynasty, vividly described the old times. He wrote "Old Age": "Write a lamp, you can draw a rough picture, climb the stairs, and you will gradually need help. The residual teeth are like general Liaocheng, and the empty city team is not alone. " Who is "General Liaocheng" and what is it? Please help. thank you
Analysis:
Good question! I'm sorry I can't help you. ...
In fact, these problems need not be taken too seriously, and those celebrities and scholars in society may not understand them. Take the allusion of "Lv Zhonglian's saving Liaocheng with a book" as an example. No one can tell whether Lu Zhonglian took a book to save Liaocheng or fell into Liaocheng, not to mention our descendants who were thousands of years late.
There is a poem by Xia Wanchun, an ancient witch in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, which says, "The tears of the chic Qin court are like flying in Liaocheng." In the Song Dynasty, Zengbo Li "made Liaocheng elegant and returned the book to Jiange Ming." Bao Zhao in the Northern and Southern Dynasties was ashamed of white jade. The shame of Liaocheng Gong. "Liaocheng" and so on mostly write the story of "Lu". I think the "General Liaocheng" here should be General Yan who was guarding Liaocheng at the beginning, and the story should also refer to that allusion.
Looking at the historical data of Liaocheng, we can know that the Ming and Qing Dynasties were the most prosperous time in Liaocheng, perhaps just like Shenzhen in the 1980s. So at that time, the allusion of "Liaocheng Ya" was often talked about by people, just as we have used it as an idiom allusion everywhere.
Delicate Yuan Mei's poetry, refer to history and think about artistic conception. I feel that the sentence may mean this: people are old and will die soon, so there is nothing to miss. If they give up, they will give up. Don't refuse to give up like the general who was guarding Liaocheng at the beginning, and finally end up in a dead end. Liancheng was killed and had nothing.
