Climb the Phoenix Terrace in Nanjing.
Tang Libai
There used to be a phoenix on the phoenix platform, and the phoenix went to Taiwan, only Jiangdong returned.
Martial arts flowers were laid on deserted paths, and the number of relatives and friends in the Jin Dynasty has become a famine.
The mountains are shrouded in clouds, such as blue sky, and the river is divided into two.
There is always a traitor in power, like covering the sky, and Chang' an is depressed when he can't see it.

There used to be a phoenix swimming on the Phoenix platform, but only when Phoenix went to Taiwan Province, the river was still flowing eastward.
The flowers and plants in the palace of Wu are buried in deserted paths, and many royal families in the Jin Dynasty have become abandoned tombs and ancient hills.
The fog of the three mountains is looming, like falling into the sky, and the river is divided into two by Bailuzhou.
There are always treacherous court officials in power, but Chang 'an can't see the depression in his heart.
Nanjing on the Phoenix Terrace is one of the few seven-character poems in Li Bai's poetry collection. This poem was written in Tianbao period (742 ~ 756). The author was ordered to "return the gold to the mountain" and was forced to leave Chang 'an for Jinling in the south. One said that it was written by the author after he returned from exile. It is also said that Li Bai wrote it after visiting the Yellow Crane Tower, leaving "There is no scenery in front of him, and Cui Hao wrote an inscription on it" in order to compete with the Yellow Crane Tower in Cui Hao.
The theory of going to the Phoenix Terrace in Nanjing is a famous legal poem in Tang Dynasty. The first two sentences wrote the legend of Phoenix TV. Of the fourteen words, I used three phoenix words, but I didn't feel repetitive. The syllables are smooth, bright and beautiful. "Phoenix Terrace" is located on the Phoenix Mountain in Jinling. According to legend, during the Yongjia period of Liu Song in the Southern Dynasties, there were phoenixes gathering on this mountain, so it was built, hence the name of the mountain and the terrace. In feudal times, the phoenix was an auspicious symbol. Phoenix's visit symbolizes the prosperity of the dynasty; Now, even the prosperity of the Six Dynasties is gone forever. Only the water of the Yangtze River is still flowing, which is natural and eternal. Three or four sentences further develop the meaning of "Phoenix going to Taiwan". Wu and Dong Jin in the Three Kingdoms period were based in Jinling. The poet said with emotion that the once prosperous court of Wu was deserted, and the romantic figures of the Eastern Jin Dynasty had already been buried in the ground. Xuanhe at that time did not leave anything of value in history.
