An ancient poem about the history and culture of Fuyang is as follows:
Yingzhou engages in a banquet at the West Lake Pavilion - Xu Hun of the Tang Dynasty
I don’t know how to return to the banquet at the West Lake Pavilion. A song of departure and a glass of wine.
You can hear the setting sun in the city and the drum horns, and you can see the towers in the temple near the autumn water.
The guests in Orchid Hall are scattered and the cicadas are still noisy, but there are few people in Guijie and birds come here.
I just want to drive through Gongluo, where frost chrysanthemums are blooming around the pond.
Fuyang, referred to as Fuyang, and formerly known as Ruyin, Shunchang, and Yingzhou, is located in the Yangtze River Delta region, northwest of Anhui Province, and at the southern end of the North China Plain. This is the hometown of Guan Zhong, Lu Meng, Liu Futong and others. Yan Shu, Ouyang Xiu, Su Shi and others also served as officials here. This place has a long history and beautiful scenery, and has welcomed many literati to recite poems and compose poems here.
Xu Hun, also known as Yonghui (first author Zhonghui), was a poet of the Tang Dynasty and a native of Danyang, Runzhou (now Danyang, Jiangsu). One of the most influential poets in the late Tang Dynasty, this poem describes the scene of the poet tasting wine and admiring chrysanthemums in Fuyang during the golden autumn season. It can be seen from the poem that the West Lake in Yingzhou at that time had a beautiful natural environment and large-scale buildings. There are so many varieties of chrysanthemums and their flowers bloom in so many ways.
The themes are nostalgic and pastoral, while the art is characterized by the integrity of occasional pairs and the proficiency of verses. However, most of the poems describe the scenery of water and rain. Later generations proposed that he was as famous as the poet Du Fu, and commented on him as "Xu Hun's thousand poems are wet, and Du Fu's life is full of sorrow." When he became an adult, he moved to Dingmaojian, Jingkou, and named his poetry collection after Dingmao. Later generations called him "Xu Dingmao".
