Birds are singing in the south of the Yangtze River, green grass and red flowers set each other off, and wine flags are flying everywhere in the foothills of water towns. There are more than 480 ancient temples left over from the Southern Dynasties, and countless terraces are shrouded in wind, smoke, clouds and rain.

Creative background:
In the late Tang Dynasty, when Du Mu lived, the Tang Dynasty, as a mansion, was on the verge of collapse, and the regime of the buffer region, the eunuch's authoritarian power and the dispute between Niu and Li were eroding the giant's body bit by bit.
On the other hand, after Xian Zong came to power, he was fascinated by his achievements in Pinghuaixi and other places and started the dream of eternal life in the Spring and Autumn Period. He was so worried about Buddhism that Han Yu went to the platform of remonstrating Buddha's bones and almost lost his life. After Xianzong was killed by eunuchs, Mu Zong, Jing Zong, Wenzong and others preached Buddhism as usual, the number of monks and nuns kept rising, and the temple economy kept developing, which greatly weakened the strength of the government and increased the burden on the country.
When Du Mu came to Jiangnan (Jiangyin, Jiangsu) this year, he couldn't help thinking of the piety of the Southern Dynasties, especially the Liang Dynasty. In the end, there was nothing. Not only did he not seek immortality, but he harmed the country and the people by mistake. It is not only a tribute and nostalgia for history, but also a gentle exhortation to the rulers of the Tang Dynasty. Later, Wu Zong made peace and destroyed Buddha, which eased the contradiction to some extent.
This is a landscape poem with a good reputation. A small space paints a broad picture. It is not aimed at a specific place, but at the unique scenery of the whole south of the Yangtze River, so it is named "Spring in the South of the Yangtze River".
