There is no smoke in the autumn night in Nanhu Lake. Can you ride straight into the sky?
Let Dongting Lake enjoy some moonlight on credit and enjoy the moon and drink happily.
Appreciation of Li Bai's You Dong Ting
In the autumn of the second year of Su Zonggan Yuan (759), Ye Li, assistant minister of punishments, was demoted to Lingnan and passed through Yuezhou (now Yueyang, Hunan) to meet the poet Li Bai. At that time, Jia Zhi also lived in Yuezhou, and the three met to travel to Dongting Lake. Li Bai wrote a set of five four-line poems. This is the second one, rich in connotation, full of wonderful opportunities and infinite in charm.
The first sentence describes the scenery, but also points out the season and boating. Dongting is in the southwest of Yuezhou, so it is called "South Lake". Tang people like to chant Dongting, and there are many beautiful sentences. The phrase "South Lake is smokeless in autumn" seems to have no specific and detailed description, but it is a natural and memorable light language. Come to the lake at night. Is there smoke? Who can observe it? If you can see "smoke-free", the lake will light up. You haven't written about the moon, but you will get "moonlight", which is wonderful. In the autumn festival, the bright moon shines on the South Lake, which is picturesque, and readers can pick it up with their eyes closed, which is refreshing. This poetic language with image suggestion function is light and tasteful, and its beauty is beyond the reach of figurative modeling.
In the realm of moonlight purification, it is easiest to forget all trivial gains and losses in the world and imagine. At this time, the moonlight on the lake aroused the idea that Li Bai, a fallen fairy, was dying, so the second sentence said: Andrew ("Nike") rode the current and soared into the sky! Legend has it that the Tianhe River leads to the sea. That's what I thought. The poet's naive fantasy indirectly tells readers the charm of the moon scene.
The poet has no heaven, and the last two sentences are about boating on the lake, enjoying the moon and drinking. The word "harmony" is meaningful, which seems to explain that although it is not in heaven, it is not that you can't go to heaven, nor that you don't want to go. It's just that the moonlight in Dongting is so beautiful that it is better to stay for a while. Its measures are also great. Su Dongpo's "Water Tune" "If you want to go home by the wind, you will be afraid that the Yuyu roof of Qionglou will be too cold. Dancing to understand the shadow, what's it like on earth? The artistic conception is similar.
The breeze on the lake, the bright moon on the lake and the beauty of nature are all suitable for people, so Li Bai once said that "the breeze and the bright moon don't cost a penny" (Xiangyang song). Saying "get something for nothing" is the most appropriate footnote of the word "credit", but it can't be done best. The use of this word seems very unreasonable. Can "Moonlight" be credited? Why use "credit" again? However, with this word, it is naturally anthropomorphic. The 800-mile Dongting looks like a rich owner, with priceless treasures such as lake light, mountain scenery, moonlight and breeze. (just say "moonlight on credit", but you might as well draw inferences from others), and very generous and hospitable. With the word "credit", man and nature had a eloquent dialogue, which was very cordial. This ingenious anthropomorphic technique is even better. The author's "Farewell to North Korea's Imperial Gifts" also contains the sentence "Moonlight on Dongshan Mountain is temporary, and a song is sent round and bright all night", and the word "moonlight on credit" is also used to refer to each other. Facing the clear night in Wan Li, wine is indispensable, which naturally leads to the last sentence. It is also unreasonable and interesting to say that "the ship will buy wine for Bai Yunbian" when it is clearly on the lake. Originally, Dongting Lake was vast and connected with water and sky. Seen from a distance, the lakeside restaurant is Bai Yunsheng's home. Say "buy wine Bai Yunbian", we can see the grandeur of the lake. At the same time, it echoed the fantasy of "going straight to heaven", and the restaurant on earth was moved to heaven by the poet's imagination. This impromptu sentence is full of strange feelings and interests, which enriches the rhyme of the whole poem.
Generally speaking, the beauty of this poem lies not in the specific description of the scenery, but in improvisation, unique artistic imagination and unique wording and sentences, which can inspire people to avoid thinking. The whole article is full of charm and cannot be connected, just as it is said: "Xing is the mainstay, poetry is one" ("Four Poems").

Appreciation of Li Bai's You Dong Ting
Uncle Three Drunkens with Assistant Minister in Dongting Lake is a set of poems by Li Bai. It consists of three five-character quatrains. All three songs can be independent chapters, and the third one is a lyric swan song with unique conception.
This poem was written in the autumn of Gan Yuan's second year (759). That spring, Li Bai went to Wushan on his way to exile Yelang. Fortunately, he was released by Amnesty. After a narrow escape, I was overjoyed I immediately "bid farewell to Baidi Caiyun and return to Jiangling one day" and hurried back to Jiangxia. After Li Bai regained his freedom, why could he not wait to return to Jiangxia? "Heaven and earth are new and the law is wide, and Yelang moves guests with frost and cold" ("Jiangxia gives Wei Nanling ice"), it turned out that he had fantasies about the court again, hoping that the court could still use him. However, he lived in Jiangxia for a period of time, with no results and disillusionment, so he had to leave Jiangxia and travel in central Hunan. When I met my uncle Ye Li in Yuezhou, I was banished to Lingnan by assistant minister of punishments. The mood of their trip to Dongting can be imagined. Li Bai was brilliant, always ambitious, and his political affairs were yellow, which frustrated him all his life. Therefore, he has long lamented that "God never shuts one door but he opens another". Now in my old age, after a narrow escape, I am disillusioned and even have no choice. Decades of grievances have come to mind together. So, when they were boating in the blue waves and drinking to their heart's content, they looked up and stood on Junshan Mountain on Dongting Lake, blocking Hunan water from rushing to the Yangtze River and the sea, as if the bumps and obstacles on his life path had ruined his great future. So he sent out the whimsy of "having a good Junshan and spreading Hunan water". He wants to shovel to Junshan, ostensibly to let the mighty Xiang water flow forward unimpeded, but in fact to express his anger. How he wishes to eradicate the injustice in the world and let himself and all talented people have a smooth road to go! However, this is a romantic fantasy after all. Junshan is uneven, and the road in the world is still rugged. "Du Kang is the only solution", so drink to your heart's content! The poet was drunk. Looking at the blue waves of Dongting Lake from his drunken eyes, it seems that the water in Dongting Lake has turned into wine, but isn't the red leaf on Junshan the blushing drunk face of Dongting Lake? Then he issued a romantic fantasy: "Baling unlimited wine, drunk to kill Dongting autumn." These two poems are not only a wonderful portrayal of natural scenery, but also a tortuous expression of the poet's thoughts and feelings, showing that he also hopes to get drunk with endless wine like Dongting Lake in autumn to wash away the accumulated melancholy in his heart. The two fantastic ideas in this poem seem to be independent on the surface, but in fact they are internally related. The connection between them is the poet's eternal sadness and eternal anger. Wine and poetry are both means for poets to express their anger and open their hearts. Only Li Bai in this state of mind can have such a strange imagination; Only such a strange imagination can fully express Li Bai's feelings at this moment.
Li Bai wrote an ice gift for Wei Nanling in Jiangxia period, which is also a work of venting anger after drinking. There is a saying in the book: "People are still bored, and life is long and bitter. I am worried about drinking two thousand stones, and the cold ash warms me up. " "I smashed the Yellow Crane Tower for you, and you smashed Nautilus Island for me." The meaning of "good mountains and good water" in this poem is exactly the same as that in the other one. If we must ask, what are the motives and purposes of "smashing the Yellow Crane Tower", "abandoning Nautilus Island" and "abandoning Junshan"? Even if Li Bai is buried underground, I'm afraid he can't tell the truth himself. He may only answer like this: "I express my grievances!"
