According to the New Tang Book, Du Mu was called "Wang Zuocai" and "upright and upright" ... who dared to make great events, indicating that Chen Li's illness was particularly urgent. Like a scholar who cares about the world, Du Mu's strong sense of mission is fully displayed in his works.
This song "Jiangnan Spring" is his masterpiece. Before the late Tang Dynasty, poems about objects mostly used classical Chinese and metrical poems, but Du Mu liked to use quatrains. So this is exactly what makes him outstanding: under the autocratic system, there is no such thing as an evil emperor, and his subjects make irresponsible remarks about the emperor. It is impossible to "correct what you have, and encourage what you don't have", which often backfires and even leads to death. The cleverest way is "the speaker is innocent, and what he hears is enough to quit", but many literati can't master this measure, and it is easy to control their stinking mouths if they are not careful.
Du Mu's quatrains are subtle and tactful, and the master didn't get to the point. For example, "Crossing Huaqing Palace": Chang 'an looks back and embroiders in piles, and the top of the mountain opens a thousand times. As soon as I rode on the smile of smoke and smoke, no one knew that the fresh fruit litchi was sent from the south.
If Du Mu is a director, he must be a very clever director. Under the camera, there are only a few pictures from far and near, which clearly explain a historical event. Without a word of narration, the interested audience knows what he wants to express.
Jiangnan Spring is also such a quatrain. Water village, mountain fruit and wine flag have such a strong sense of picture that readers will mistakenly think that this is an impression of splashing ink on the mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River. Generally speaking, the Southern Dynasties in a broad sense refer to the six regimes, namely, , Song, Qi, Liang and Chen, which were leaning to the left of the Yangtze River. Because their capitals are located in Jiankang (now Nanjing, Jiangsu), they are also called "Six Dynasties". Traditionally, only the four short-lived regimes of Song, Qi, Liang and Chen were called the Southern Dynasties. It took about 170 years from the demise of the Eastern Jin Dynasty to the reunification of the Sui Dynasty. In a short period of 100 years, it changed four dynasties like a lantern. In such a chaotic historical period, the people are in constant fear, and the rulers still have leisure to build the "480 Temple"?
In fact, Du Mu's "480 Temple" is just a general term. I'm afraid no one can tell exactly how many Buddhist temples were built in the Southern Dynasties 100 years ago. Take health as an example. By the early Tang Dynasty, there were at least 500 temples. Historically, most temples in Jiankang City were built in the south of the city. To this day, there is a saying in Nanjing that "there are temples outside the south gate". According to experts' statistics, there were 19 13 monasteries in Liu and Song Dynasties. Xiao Qishi, 2065438+05; Xiao Liang reached its peak, with 2,846 monasteries and 82,700 monks and nuns. During the Chen Dynasty, there were 1232 temples.
