The word Shang Kun expresses his current living environment and identity, as well as his feelings about his affairs and personnel. The author asks himself and answers himself, showing an arrogant and honest personality. This song is based on the word "leisure", which shows the author's leisure and interest away from the noise of officials. The author creates the artistic conception in his heart with the poems of his predecessors, serves his own expression and significance, and makes it seem to be his own work through his careful combination and arrangement.
The first two sentences, "a few huts are idle near the water, with narrow shirts and short hats and weeping willows", clearly express their current living environment and identity. In the past, the official residence with heavy buildings, eaves and walls, carved columns and painted buildings was replaced by a waterside hut with a fence as the wall and grass as the house; Nowadays, the clothes for idle people, narrow shirts and short hats, have replaced the previous ones with pythons. The author came to the weeping willows by the water bridge from Dan in Jiuchong Chenque. Wang Anshi took a calm attitude towards this change. A word "leisure" renders an indifferent and quiet living environment. It also points out the author's interest in getting rid of the official sea and the hubbub. Although the two sentences are taken from predecessors' poems, the things they refer to are appropriate and natural.
The next two sentences are about the scenery: "Last year, the flowers were red and the wind blew all night." One night, the spring breeze came, blowing all kinds of colors, and the scenery was just like last year. However, "Flowers are similar every year, but people of different ages are different". Referring to the original sentence of "Today is white, last year was red" (Yi Yin's Looking at Peony), it is not difficult to think that the author also contains the same feelings as his predecessors. However, as a politician who once inspired reform, his feeling that things have changed is not only a sigh for the passage of time and the approach of old age, but also a sorrow for his ambition.
The next day, "the new moon disappears at the tip, and I wake up drunk at noon." The author is drunk and sleeps during the day, so he doesn't have to participate in politics with the whole class. Life is so leisurely, but when he wakes up, he is not accompanied by the breeze and the bright moon, but by the dark night when the wind blows and the moon sets. If we associate the symbolic scene of A Crescent Moon with the abolition of the new law at that time, the resignation of the new school, being too young to be a director, and listening to the words of the Political Bureau of the old party after the emperor, I am afraid that the author shows his concern for the national political situation in a comparative way. But as a retired person, the environment of the thatched cottage is far from the political center after all, and his ambition at this time is only leisure, so the last two sentences naturally boil down to leisure: "What is the most important, the oriole is three or two." The author asks himself and answers himself, writes implicitly and has a long aftertaste. Wang Anshi's love for orioles not only shows his leisure for flowers and birds, but also shows his aloof and sincere character.
In the quiet life scene, it embodies the mind and ambition of politicians, and in the elegant and elegant style, it shows the talent and strength of reformers. Simplicity, simplicity, implication and profundity are the basic characteristics of this poem. Although it is a set of sentences, it also reflects the creative personality of Wang Anshi's Ci "Washing the Old Habits of the Five Dynasties" (Liu Xizai's Yi Jian-Ci Qu Ci).
However, the most valuable thing about this word is the artistic form of poetry. This is an invention of Wang Anshi. The rich poetic heritage in the prosperous Tang Dynasty became Wang Anshi's ready-made ci. Except for the third sentence in Yi Yin's Looking at Peony in the Tang Dynasty, most of them are from Tang poetry. The first sentence is Liu Yuxi's "Send Cao Kun back to Vietnam": "There are a few huts at the water's edge, and I study by myself at night with an autumn lantern." The source of the fifth sentence is Han Yu's "Nanxi begins to flood": "A little bit of yellow rain floats, and the new moon on the tip withers." The sixth sentence is from Xie Fang's poem (missing the title): "No one will dream that he is surprised to wake up late at noon." So handy and driven at will, it can help people to get happiness and turn poems into words, which truly reflects the author's creative skill of learning and learning. The success of this set of words, more importantly, is that the author creates his own artistic conception with the poems of his predecessors, serves his own expression and makes it look like his own work through his careful arrangement.
