Qian Qi's poem about the moon in Autumn Night at the South Gate of Pei Di.

The South Gate of Pei Di is opposite to the moon in autumn.

Don? Qian Qi

Poetry comes at night, and the moon is full.

The shadow is closed, the door is quiet, and cold gives birth to autumn independence.

Magpies follow the leaves in surprise, and fireflies go far into the smoke.

Tonight is the end of the day, how sad it is.

Make an appreciative comment

Xie Gong Lou is the place where Xie Zhuang wrote Yuefu in Jin Dynasty, referring to Pei Di's study. The poet and a few friends were drinking and writing poems. When they were in high spirits, they saw the moonlight pouring on the courtyard and balcony, and the instantaneous lively atmosphere was replaced by the quiet and distant meaning. "The shadow is closed, the door is quiet, and the cold is born in autumn." Under the moonlight, all is silent, the door is closed, the shade is cold, and the autumn is thick.

Since it is a full moon, it is natural to describe the moonlight in the poem. The sentence "The magpie follows the leaves with surprise, and the firefly goes far into the smoke" is changed from describing the surrounding environment to writing moonlight, not from the front. Moonlight is colorless and invisible, so it is difficult to describe it positively. Wang Changling described the moonlight as "a clear glow in Shui Mu, flowing like waves on our windows and doors", which was completely like water. Du Fu's description of moonlight is that "a dark room is opened from time to time, so it is full of blue sky", focusing on the dynamics of moonlight; And Zhang's masterpiece "Moonlit Night on a Spring River" is also set off by some sentences, such as "first frost is floating in the air, but you can't see the white sand on the pavilion" and "Hongyan flies too long, and ichthyosaurs dive". Qian Qi, a poet, draws on the experience and poems of his predecessors. The last sentence "The magpie is startled with the leaves" comes from Cao Cao's "The moon stars are rare, and the birds fly south". Go around the tree three times, what branches can you rely on? It is described that because the moonlight is too bright, the black magpie mistakenly thinks that it is dawn, so it suddenly flies up and shakes off a piece of autumn leaves. Compared with Cao's poems, this poem by Qian Qi is more concise and poetic. The next sentence "fireflies far into the smoke stream" is also described from the side. The hazy haze sets off bright fluorescence, and the disappearance of fluorescence sets off the bright moon, which is very clever. Against the background of these two sentences, the silver world thousands of miles away a month is presented to readers in an unusually vivid way.

At the end of the poem, the poet was gradually lost in thought by the beautiful moonlight, and ended with a meaningful question.

Qian Qi, first secretary of the provincial school book lang, was a lieutenant of Lantian County, and later served as a scholar, Yuan Wailang, Kao Gonglang, and a bachelor of Hanlin. He used to be a doctor in the senior high school entrance examination, so he was called "Thousand Examiners" by the world, and he was also called "Top Ten Talents in Dali" with Han Yu, Li Duan and Lu Lun. Qian Qi is good at five words, with beautiful words and harmonious melody. Because it is the same as Lang Shiyuan, it is the same as "Qian Lang". Man-made words say, "There is Song Shen before, and then there is money." In this regard, Qian Qi was very dissatisfied and proudly said, "Are Lang Shiyuan and Yu also called?" However, if the court officials went out to serve the sheep and had no money to bid farewell to Lang Fu's poems, it was despised by the theory at that time. The themes of Qian Qi's poems are mainly about scenery description and entertainment. The melody is harmonious and graceful, and there are sometimes good sentences.

Qian Qi's poems were very famous at that time, mostly for farewell entertainment, lingering in the landscape, whitewashing peace, which was far from the social reality. However, his poetry has a high artistic level, elegant, beautiful and elegant style, especially good at writing landscapes, and he is an outstanding representative of the poetic style of Dali.

A few works feel sad and confused, and sympathize with the sufferings of farmers. The most famous poem is "Provincial Examination Item Se". There is a collection of Qian Kao Gong written by great-great grandson Xie Qian, which contains five unique works by Jiang Xing, one hundred untitled poems and several chapters.
