Creation background
This article is selected from Yaochi. Yaochi is a seven-character quatrain written by Li Shangyin, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. This poem is based on the myth of Zhou Muwang's westward journey meeting the Queen Mother, mocking the vanity of the emperor seeking immortality. The whole poem fictionalizes that the Queen Mother of the West can't expect to return, implies the story of the late King Mu, and shows the inevitable opposition between the delusion of seeking immortality and death.

works appreciation
In the late Tang Dynasty, several emperors were superstitious about the way of immortals, took Dan medicine, sought immortality in vain, and even died of poisoning by taking Jin Dan. This poem is a satire on the vanity of pursuing immortality.
This poem is based on the legend that the Queen Mother of the West met Zhou Muwang. Grasping the fact that the Queen Mother of the West hoped that the King Mu would "come back" and that the King Mu promised to come back, the author invented a plot in which the Queen Mother of the West hoped that the King Mu would come back: the Queen Mother of the West opened the carved window and looked at the East, but there was no sign of the King Mu, only the sound of "Huang Zhuge" moved the earth sadly.
The first sentence is the beautiful scenery of fairyland, and the second sentence is the sad scene of the world, which forms a strong contrast. This contrast has two meanings: first, the metaphor songwriter is dead, and only his songs are left in the world. Although fairyland is beautiful, why can't it be visited, which implies the irony of seeking immortality; First, the poem "Huang Zhuge" implies that the people are hungry and cold, while the rulers pursue immortality and hope to live forever, implying a rebuke to the rulers for pursuing immortality.
The last two sentences of the poem are about the psychological activities of the Queen Mother of the West when she didn't see Mu Wang: Mu Wang's eight horses galloped at high speed, and he could make three Wan Li in one day. It would be a piece of cake if he wanted to come, but why didn't he come as promised? The Queen Mother sincerely invited Mu Wang back. It is convenient for Mu Wang to promise to come again. He arrived in an instant with eight horses, but Mu Wang didn't come after all. Needless to say, Mu Wang is dead, and his death is self-evident.
However, the Queen Mother of the West is still waiting at the window. This shows that the Queen Mother of the West hoped that Zhou Muwang would not die, but this hope finally fell through. Even an immortal, such as the Queen Mother of the West, can't save Zhou Muwang from death, so the so-called immortal skills on the earth are naturally more unreliable, and they don't believe in the falsehood of seeking immortality.
Ironically, immortality was originally the subject of considerable discussion, but this poem was not discussed at all. The author's intention is completely melted in the actions and psychological activities of the Queen Mother of the West, and it is expressed with concrete and vivid images, and the conception is extremely ingenious. The last sentence is a question mark in the heart of the Queen Mother of the West, not a rhetorical question directly put forward by the poet. Therefore, although the irony of the poem is sharp and sharp, the expression is euphemistic and tortuous, not straightforward sarcasm and ridicule.
Brief introduction of the author
Li Shangyin (about 8 13-858), born in western Henan (xi) and Fan Nan, born in Xingyang, Zhengzhou (now Xingyang, Henan), was a famous poet in the late Tang Dynasty, and was also called "Little Du Li" with Du Mu, Li Shangyin and Li He.
Li Shangyin was one of the few poets who deliberately pursued the beauty of poetry in the late Tang Dynasty and even the whole Tang Dynasty. He is good at poetry writing, and parallel prose also has high literary value. His poems are novel in conception and beautiful in style, especially some love poems and untitled poems are touching, beautiful and moving, and are widely read. However, some poems (represented by Jinse) are obscure and inseparable, and there is a saying that "poets always love Quincy and hate that no one writes about Jian Zheng".
In the second year of Tang Wenzong (837), Li Shangyin became the first scholar, and served as secretary of the provincial school, bookkeeper of the school and commander of Hongnong. Because he was involved in the political whirlpool of "the dispute between Niu and Li", he was excluded and frustrated all his life. In the last years of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (about 858), Li Shangyin died of illness in Zhengzhou and was buried in Xingyang, his hometown. It is also said that he was buried in Yongdian, Huaizhou (now Wangzhuang Town, Qinyang Mountain) at the foot of Qinghua Beishan, whose ancestral home is Dongyuan.

Eight-horse car, traveling three thousand miles a day; Zhou Muwang, why didn't the default come again? (Wang) Word-guessing flower
Bajun: It is said that there are eight fine horses in Zhou Muwang, and they travel to Wan Li three times a day. Liezi and Mu Zhuan have different records about this. "Eight kings and three trips to Wan Li, why didn't Mu Wang come back?" . Although Mu has eight horses, and he is unparalleled in wealth in Wan Li every day, he can no longer go to Yaochi to see the Queen Mother, because his life is over, the horse can't be chased back, the imperial power can't be changed, and the Queen Mother can't wait. Throughout history, Qin Shihuang, Emperor Wudi and others, like Mu, always wanted to find a "panacea" for immortality, but their efforts were ultimately to hate the water flowing eastward and bury a pile of wasteland. Song died, but Ma Jun was helpless. This sharp contrast between subjective affection and objective ruthlessness is ostensibly about Zhou Muwang's sorrow and greed, but in fact it exposes and satirizes the bad behavior of the Tang Dynasty emperor, who was contemporary with the poet, regardless of the safety of the world and the lives of the people, who only wanted to live forever and seek immortality and worship Buddha. The story of Mu and the Queen Mother of the West, the ancient myth that the Queen Mother of the West looked forward to Mu's meeting day and night, rode eight horses on Wan Li Road for three days, and the Queen Mother of the West lamented that Mu was late. Usage: the date can't wait long, and the woman gives it to the man.

Why didn't Mu Wang come back during Bajun's three days in Wan Li?
Bajun: It is said that there are eight fine horses in Zhou Muwang, and they travel to Wan Li three times a day. Liezi and Mu Zhuan have different records about this. The Queen Mother of the West has doubts because King Mu is not coming. Refuse the immortal to write in the tone of the immortal (queen mother), compare sentences to see the falsehood of the immortal, and seek the absurdity of the immortal. ..

Why didn't Wan Li come back when he went on a three-day trip?
"Eight kings and three trips to Wan Li, why didn't Mu Wang come back?" . Although Mu has eight horses, and he is unparalleled in wealth in Wan Li every day, he can no longer go to Yaochi to see the Queen Mother, because his life is over, the horse can't be chased back, the imperial power can't be changed, and the Queen Mother can't wait. Throughout history, Qin Shihuang, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and others, like Mu, always wanted to find a "panacea" for immortality, but their efforts ultimately hated the water flowing eastward and buried a pile of wasteland. Song died, but Ma Jun was helpless. This sharp contrast between subjective affection and objective ruthlessness is ostensibly about Zhou Muwang's sorrow and greed, but in fact it exposes and satirizes the bad behavior of the Tang Dynasty emperor, who was contemporary with the poet, regardless of the safety of the world and the lives of the people, who only wanted to live forever and seek immortality and worship Buddha.

Grandma Yao Chi's window opened and Huang Zhu sang sadly. Bajun went to Wan Li three times a day, and Mu Wang never came back.
The Queen Mother of the West opened the window and looked down the hill, but there was a wail stirring the earth from the hill. Listen carefully, this lamentation is actually the Yellow Bamboo Song written by Mu. Although Mu visited Baliangma in Wan Li for one day, he could never go to Yaochi to see the Queen Mother of the West. Appreciation: At the beginning of the poem, only the doubts of the Queen Mother of the West are written, but the reason why "Huang Shu mourns the earth" is not written, which leaves readers with room for thinking and imagination, which is subtle and wonderful. "Mourning on the ground" is a double "mourning" * *, and it is a word. The first mourning is the "mourning" of mourning everywhere. Feudal emperors "don't ask ordinary people, ask ghosts and gods" and indulge in the fantasy of seeking immortality all day. How can ordinary people live a good life? Sadness is everywhere, and Mutianzi's country will not last long. The second kind of sadness is the "sadness" of self-deception in seeking eternal life and still dying in the grave. Birth, aging, illness and death are irresistible objective laws. However, in order to enjoy the honor of the world forever, emperors just go against the sky and have to use some "panacea" to change the pace of life. Either he is cheating, others are cheating, not in their prime, or they are accelerating their demise. The use of the word "mourning" hit the nail on the head, reflecting the poet's extraordinary skills and ability to master language and writing. Although Mu has eight horses, and he is unparalleled in wealth in Wan Li every day, he can no longer go to Yaochi to see the Queen Mother, because his life is over, the horse can't be chased back, the imperial power can't be changed, and the Queen Mother can't wait. Throughout history, Qin Shihuang, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and others, like Mu, always wanted to find a "panacea" for immortality, but their efforts ultimately hated the water flowing eastward and buried a pile of wasteland. Song died, but Ma Jun was helpless. This sharp contrast between subjective affection and objective ruthlessness is ostensibly about Zhou Muwang's sorrow and greed, but in fact it is an exposure and irony of the bad behavior of the Tang emperors who were contemporary with the poet, regardless of the safety of the world and the life and death of the people, and only wanted to live forever and pray for immortality and worship Buddha.
