Playing the strings and singing, the southern tour is like Hunan and Hubei.
At that time, I was ordered to drive in the clouds early, who cried more tears.
Wu's Random Thoughts on Reading History consists of eight poems, which tell the love story between the emperor shunzhi and Dong E Fei in the early Qing Dynasty. Shunzhi is a romantic son of heaven. He values love more than the throne of the emperor. He is deeply in love with the beautiful and clever Dong E Fei. Unfortunately, Dong Eshi's young life passed away, which made him extremely sad. In order to express his condolences, he built a Dojo for her in Wutai Mountain, invited a famous monk to cross over, and even had the idea of cutting his hair and hiding an empty door. A year later, Shunzhi, who was only 24 years old, died unfortunately. So some people linked their successive deaths with their love, and many strange rumors were popular at one time. These rumors naturally became the subject matter of interest to the poet. Wu once set up a Dojo in Wutai Mountain for Shunzhi and wrote four poems praising Buddha by Liang Qingshan, which were tragic and touching. Some people compared them to Song of Eternal Sorrow. This group of Random Thoughts on Reading History, in the form of a group of poems, praised their eternal love from different angles.
The following is the first song chosen, and it is also a relationship about Wutai Mountain chasing the dead. In the poem, the death of Shun and his second concubine is compared with that of Dong E-fei. The first sentence, "You can sing when you play the string", means that Shun just played a cheerful tune from the south wind, "which can solve the worries of our people", and then a sad song came. This is a metaphor for Shunzhi and Dong Eshi's happy life by playing Song of the South Wind. It is an "elegy" pointing out the death of Dong Eshi, which is intended to explain the basic fact that Princess Di Qing's marriage in 2008 was happy and sweet, but it was also very short-lived. The second sentence, "southern tour is like Hunan and Hubei", shows that Shunzhi went to Wutai Mountain to pay homage to Dong Eshi. The legendary Hehe went to Jiangxiang because Shun's southern tour was buried in the wilderness of Cangwu. On the contrary, Shunzhi visited Wutai Mountain in the south in order to cross over the ghost of his beloved princess. A "parody" tells the unique nature of Shunzhi's loyalty to love. This special behavior of ignoring the dignity of the son of heaven is enough to show his infatuation with Dong E Fei.
The first two sentences were written by Shunzhi, and the last two sentences were conceived by Dong E Fei. "Driving a cloud" is a car bound for heaven, which means the death of Shunzhi. "At that time, I had already been ordered to ride in the clouds", which means that if Shunzhi died before Dong Eshi, she would be heartbroken. "Who cries Cangwu more tears" means that the tears she cries for him are not less than those of Shuner Princess, but more. It can be seen that Dong Fei's love for Shunzhi is no less than that of Shuner Princess. In this way, the unfortunate princess who died young was described as an idiot who fell in love with life and death, and the author's feelings of regret and praise also flowed out.
Because it concerns the imperial concubine of the dynasty, it is not convenient to speak frankly. This group of poems all borrowed myths and legends and historical stories, and the title of "reading history" came from this. Although this vague writing is a bit elusive, it also makes poetry hazy and mysterious, which is more suitable for this special theme and theme. This poem is also touching here.
