Author Zhang Wei? the Tang Dynasty
A maid-in-waiting lived 1000 miles away from home for twenty years.
However, ask her for this song and use the first few words of this song to see how she tries to hold back her tears.
Translation:
My hometown is 3,000 miles away from me. I have lived here for 20 years and have not been summoned by the emperor.
A bleak "He Manzi" is sung, and both of them shed tears in front of you.

Zhang Hu, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote a five-character quatrain about the seclusion of folk women in the deep palace, which ruined her life's extreme sorrow in vain and objectively exposed the cruelty of the maid-in-waiting system. Just 20 crosses, written about the sufferings of imperial secretary, make people sigh and feel emotional. Every sentence in the poem is embedded with a number, and the basic duality between sentences is also a feature.
Generally, short poems about palace grievances written in quatrains always reveal only a corner of the picture of life, so that readers can see the tragic life of the imperial secretary from one scene to another.
In the four poems, numbers are used in each sentence. Numbers often play a special role in poetry. They can express a thing and a question more clearly and accurately, give readers a deeper impression, and make poems particularly refined and powerful.
