Jiazhi
Silver candles are in the sky, and the Forbidden City is pale in spring.
A thousand weak willows look down on trifles, and a hundred warblers build chapters around them.
The sound of the sword follows the jade step, and the clothes are made of incense.
* * * On the Phoenix Pool in Muenbo, the court dyed the king.
Jia Zhi (about 7 18-772) was born in Luoyang (now Luoyang, Henan). In the first year of Emperor Xuanzong Tianbao (742), he was the first in the Ming Dynasty and was a single father. Tired of being an official, he lives with others and knows how to make imperial edicts. An Shi Rebellion, with Xuanzong into Shu, wrote the biography of Su Zong. Xuanzong read the manuscript and said, "I was born with an imperial decree, which was made by my father." Now I have a big book, and I did it again. The ceremony of the two dynasties, the birth of a father and son, can be described as beautiful. " Therefore, Jia Zhi followed Wei's book filling ceremony and became an official. After the book-filling ceremony, he stayed in Ren Zhongshu as an official of Su Zongchao. In the first year of Gan Yuan (758), it was the secretariat of Ruzhou. In the second year of Gan Yuan (759), he was demoted to Yuezhou Sima. When Mr Dai was recruited back to Ren Zhongshu, Mr Scheeren moved away to become an ordinary waiter. The Complete Poems of Tang Dynasty recorded a volume of his poems.
The original name of "The Early Daming Palace" was "The Early Daming Palace is a friend of today's two provinces", which was written in the spring of the first year of Su Zonggan Yuan. After Su Zong crossed the army, Jia Zhi wrote this poem, and Du Fu, Wang Wei and Cen Can wrote lyrics. "Early court" means that court officials go to court in the morning to discuss government affairs with the emperor. Daming Palace, located in the southeast of Forbidden Garden, was built in the eighth year of Taizong Zhenguan (634). After the renovation in 663, Emperor Gaozong Longshuo was renamed Penglai Palace. Wu Zetian changed her name to Daming Palace in the first year of Chang 'an (70 1). "Two Provinces" refers to Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province.
The first six sentences describe the scenery. I saw it on my way to Zaochao on the first couplet. Before dawn, court officials were on their way to the court. Ancient officials were worried about being late, and they all had the habit of getting up early and waiting for the morning. "Silver candle" is a good name for candles. Silver candle lanterns illuminate the road, indicating that it was not bright when they set off on the road. "Chaotian" means to welcome the emperor, and "Tian" is a respectful name for the emperor. Mozi here refers to the road to Miyagi. It was dawn when I arrived in Miyagi, and I could already see the green spring scenery in the city. "Forbidden City" refers to Miyagi where the emperor lived.
Zhuan Xu wrote Spring Scenes in the Forbidden City. Thousands of weak willow branches droop on both sides of the palace gate. "Green rope" refers to the blue pattern carved on the palace gate. Four sentences were written around Zhang Jian Palace, and the orioles sang. "Zhang Jian", the name of the palace in Han Dynasty, refers to Daming Palace here.
Couplets are written about the time when officials went to court. There are five sentences written on the steps, and the sword you wear with you collides with the sound. "Jade" is a good name for the front steps of the palace. The incense burner cigarette on the roadside fills the air, so I don't write the nose and smell the fragrance, but my clothes and body are stained with the fragrance, which makes my usual expression more novel and vivid.
Finally, express your feelings. Thank the emperor for his seven words, saying that everyone bathed in the grace of the emperor in Fengchi. "Phoenix Pool", that is, Phoenix Pool, is a pond in the Forbidden Park. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, there was a Chinese book province in the Forbidden Park, which was in charge of confidential information and was closely related to the emperor, so it was called Fengchi. Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province in Tang Dynasty were both located in the Forbidden Park, so Phoenix Pool also refers to Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province. Everyone is drafting official documents for the emperor. "Dyeing Han" means dipping a brush in ink, which means drafting imperial edicts and other documents for the emperor.
This poem has a distinctive conception and is entitled "Daming Palace in the Early Dynasty". However, I never wrote a word about meeting the emperor. I only wrote about the process before I entered Daming Palace in six sentences in chronological order, but I wrote about spring, full of vigor and vitality, solemn and bright, which implied the wisdom of the emperor and the prosperity of the country. Therefore, the poem does not directly describe the situation of meeting the emperor, but achieves the writing purpose of praise and gratitude. So there was a great response at that time and there were many works.
