No one can see the ancient wisdom of the ancient king, only those wise men who can't see the afterlife can see it.

I think of heaven and earth, there is no limit, there is no end, I am alone, tears fell down!

Translation:

We can't see the ancient holy king who accepted talents, nor can we see the wise king who was thirsty for talents in later generations. Only the boundless world is so sad that I can't stop crying!

Appreciation of Youzhou Tower

Long live Wu Zetian. In the first year of Jian 'an, Qidan captured Yingzhou and went out with Jian 'an Wang as a staff officer. Wu Youyi was defeated because she didn't understand military affairs. Chen's several suggestions were not adopted, but the punishment for his staff sergeant was mitigated. After the poet boarded Youzhou Taiwan, he had mixed feelings about Yan Zhaowang Corporal Li Xian's historical deeds in the nearby ancient land, so he wrote this poem.

The whole poem is magnificent, with infinite artistic conception and sonorous tone. Under the historical anecdote of the monarch's courtesy and the magnificent rivers and mountains in the north, the poet's sense of loneliness is vividly and tragically moving. Huang commented: "I have ages in my chest and no one in my eyes." There are many poets in ancient and modern times, and there has never been such a thing. These 22 words are really crying. " This poem swept away the disadvantages of poetry since the Qi and Liang Dynasties, and it is worthy of being a masterpiece of the new change of poetry style in the Tang Dynasty.
