In ancient times, the ancients praised poetry, and well-written poems even got official positions. Therefore, especially in the Tang and Song Dynasties, there were many poets almost everywhere, and many excellent poets appeared among them. There is a special person. In addition to being a poet, he also has a career that everyone yearns for-the emperor. Speaking of which, I believe you already know who you mean. Yes, it is Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Young Beauty is one of the famous inscriptions. This song was originally Tang Song, named after Xiang Yu's favorite concubine.
Li Yu's achievements as an emperor are not so outstanding, and he is not even a competent emperor. However, his talent in poetry and prose writing is extraordinary. Among them, there is a quatrain called Li Yu, and any sentence is a famous sentence through the ages, and no one has surpassed it for thousands of years! Let's take a look at this evaluation. There have always been many great lyricists who wrote for Yu Meiren, but none can surpass Li Yu. Although Li Yu's ci has inherited the tradition of poets such as Wen and Wei Zhuang since the late Tang Dynasty, its connotation is broader and deeper in content, especially his true feelings. That is, Li Bai's words have sincere and strong feelings and can honestly reveal his inner world. One of the most famous is the swan song in Young Beauty.
It is worth mentioning that Young Beauty is not only an eternal swan song, but also a life swan song before Li Yu was poisoned. Even if Li Yu's yearning for the motherland and even his life's misfortune in this poem are not worthy of sympathy, it does not affect his extraordinary artistic charm. The charm of young beauty can be passed down through the ages, largely because of the wonderful metaphor of the conclusion. The above is the answer to the question why Yu Meiren, praised by predecessors as the "Emperor in Ci", became a masterpiece through the ages.
