Han Yu was a famous writer, politician and thinker in Tang Dynasty. When he was an official in the DPRK, he always dared to be angry and dare not speak, saying things that officials around him dared not say. This alone can explain that Han Yu is different from ordinary people. Han Yu's prose and poetry skills are also beyond the reach of ordinary people. He tried to change the prevailing but useless flashy style of writing. Therefore, Han Yu is highly respected in later generations, and there are many stories about him, all with some fantastic colors.
According to legend, Han Yu was demoted to a local official and was very upset. He happened to meet Lv Dongbin, a nephew and an immortal Taoist, and said that he could go to Huashan to relieve his depression. Han Yu thought it was a good idea, but suffering from the high risk and difficulty of climbing Huashan Mountain, he reached the top with the help of Lv Dongbin's magical method, and immediately went to other mountains, which was dwarfed ... Looking at the mountainous and foggy world in front of him, Han Yu's mood suddenly became better. Han Yu strolled to the worse gate leading to the throne, and when he saw a Tianzhu, he couldn't help feeling the smallness of dawn.
After having a good time, Han Yu wanted to go down the mountain, but suddenly he found that someone was helping him, but it was even more difficult. Huashan Mountain has always been famous for its precipitousness, and there was no guardrail in ancient Huashan Mountain. So, Han Yu, who tried to go down the mountain several times and failed, sat on the edge of the cliff and cried helplessly. Suddenly, he thought of a plan. He wrote a letter for help with the paper he carried with him and threw it off the cliff. This letter was finally discovered by the herbalist at Yamashita and notified to the government. After that, the government sent people up the mountain to rescue the trapped Han Yu.
Later generations came to the place where Han Yu cried and threw a distress letter, and they all felt very funny and thought Han Yu was cute. This interesting story of Han Yu really left endless reverie for future generations.
Aesthetics of Han Yu's Poem Listening to a Wonderful Teacher Playing the Piano
Listening to Ying Shi Playing the Piano is a poem written by Han Yu, which mainly shows his feelings when listening to Ying Shi, a famous pianist at that time. The whole poem does not explain the time and place of listening to the piano or other characters, but directly describes the music vividly. The poet expressed the profound feelings of music through fidgeting and excited tears, which proved the rich and touching power of piano music.
Poetry is divided into two parts. The first part mainly describes the piano sound that Han Yu heard. This poem compares the curl of piano music with the whispers of two children. Originally a soft and sweet voice, it suddenly became a very exciting style, as fierce as a bloody battle on the battlefield. Then turn to the soft-hearted tune again, showing a cadence before and after. Then, it sang like a bird, as if it had entered a quiet forest with a proud phoenix in it. It was originally one thousands of feet high, but it was tragic. In fact, this coincides with Han Yu's own bureaucratic career and suffers from relegation. Originally, he also wanted to criticize the current shortcomings, but it did not meet his talent.
The second part of the poem is about Han Yu's feelings and reactions when listening to songs, thus showing the beauty of Ying Shi's piano sound. Han Yu said in his poem that although he didn't understand the beauty of piano music, he was still moved by the sound of Ying Shi. In the process of listening to the piano, Han Yu fidgeted, burst into tears, and even her skirt was wet, which shows the strong appeal of the piano. Finally, it is revealed that Ying Shi's piano skills are superb, and he thinks that water and fire are incompatible, but Ying Shi can send people to a carefree paradise first, and then enter a hot hell the next moment.
The whole poem is unique in both the creation of artistic conception and the choice of words and sentences. This poem has also been praised by later generations as a masterpiece of several voices, alongside Li Pingyou and Pipaxing.
