Introduction
Notes on the Old Xuean: "The world says Dongpo can't sing, so the Yuefu is not harmonious."
During the Song Dynasty, Su Dongpo, a famous scholar, went to Sokokuji one day to meet the monk Fo Yin. As a result, he found that the monk Fo Yin was not in the temple, and the young monks nearby didn't know where the master had gone. Su Shi, who was depressed, had to sit in the temple and drink, waiting for the monk Fo Yin to return. As a result, I drank and saw such a poem on one side wall of the temple: "There are four walls of wine, color and wealth, and everyone is hiding in them; Who can jump out of the circle and live a hundred years? "
a poetic response
who is su Shi? An artistic craftsman who was appraised as an all-rounder by later generations, one of his great hobbies in his life was drinking and eating meat. He was already famous when he was alive, and he left such works as Dongpo Yuefu. When he saw such a poem that he was not allowed to drink and have fun, he naturally wouldn't agree, so he began to write down "Drinking without drunkenness is a hero, and lust is the highest; Ill-gotten wealth is not desirable, and it will disappear if you are angry. " Made his point.
It is in this poetic dialogue that a poem "Song of debauchery and wealth" appeared, among which there is a poem: "Color is a steel knife that scrapes bones, and a colorless person opens the circuit sparsely". What exactly does this sentence mean? Obviously, the viewpoint of this sentence is not consistent with that of Mr. Su Dongpo and monk Fo Yin above, so who put it forward?
It turns out that some time later, it happened that one day Song Shenzong also came to this temple, and he also had something to look for the Fo Yin monk. But this time, Song Shenzong, like Su Shi, failed to see the figure of monk Fo Yin. Song Shenzong, who had a rest in the temple, looked up and saw these two poems, which was quite interesting. He called the prime minister aside and asked him what he thought.
Song Shenzong is a very famous emperor in the history of China. During his tenure, the prime minister appointed by him was the famous Wang Anshi, a writer as famous as Sima Guang and Su Shi. Wang Anshi, as a once-in-a-lifetime, always speaks more appropriately. Even if he is arrogant, he must restrain himself in front of the emperor. Therefore, he began to write: "No wine is no etiquette, and the colorless road is sparsely populated; People without wealth do not work hard, and countries without gas have no vitality. " This paper discusses the significance and necessity of the existence of debauchery and wealth from the perspectives of individual, society and country.
The song of debauchery and wealth
Three different poems express their different attitudes towards life and personality. Later generations, after seeing their poems, integrated them into a poem, that is, the song of debauchery and wealth mentioned earlier. The whole poem is: "Wine is a poison that pierces the intestines, color is a steel knife that scrapes bones, wealth is a tiger that goes downhill, and qi is the root cause of trouble. It seems that four words are harmful, so it is not as good as one. No wine is not etiquette, colorless roads are sparsely populated, and it is difficult to travel without money. It seems that the four words are useful and advise you to tailor your clothes. "
What is the meaning of the sentence "Color is a steel knife for scraping bones, but a man without color can't open the circuit easily"? The meaning of this sentence is well understood by combining the previous poems. Color is a sharp sword that can hurt the bones. If it can be properly treated, it will not cause us any harm. However, if too much sex cares too much about this kind of thing in his life, he will be exhausted and hurt us.
Conclusion
Finally, combined with the last two sentences of the poem, we can know that it advises our attitude towards life, that is, to seek a life style that suits us best according to our physical fitness, and not to look at ourselves by the standards of others, so that we can become better.
