Extended information creation background: Lu You loved plum blossom all his life and praised plum blossom as a spiritual carrier. Plum blossom became the symbol of unyielding image in his works. It is not difficult to understand Lu You's life, and the plum blossom in his ci is the portrayal of the author himself. Lu You's life is full of ups and downs. He was born in the seventh year of Xuanhe (1 125), when the Northern Song Dynasty was teetering and the Jin people were waiting for him.
Soon, he and his family began a turbulent escape career. "Try to avoid Hu Bing as much as possible when I was a child" was a portrayal at that time, and it also helped him plant patriotic seeds in the depths of his young mind. In the 23rd year of Shaoxing, Song Gaozong (1 153), Lu You went to Lin 'an to take the Jinshi examination, and was awarded the first prize for his outstanding talent. However, Qin Gui's grandson was ranked behind Lu You, which angered Qin Gui. He actually exempted the Ministry of Education examination in the second year.
On the one hand, Qin Gui excused his trip on land, on the other hand, he was jealous of the capitulator leader because he "talked happily about recovery". It was not until Qin Gui's death that Lu Youfang began to enter the official career. After that, Lu You's career was not smooth sailing and experienced ups and downs. He has been to the front line of resisting gold, dressed in military uniform, and devoted himself to the fiery fighting life, thus realizing the "poet's Samadhi".
Since then, fierce battle scenes and strong desire to recover lost ground have become the most beautiful themes in his poems. However, the small court in the Southern Song Dynasty was partial to a corner, and was quite satisfied with the residual water and mountains in front of it, and did not really want to restore it. Even if you have to make some gestures sometimes, it is a cover-up, and you are absent-minded.
Therefore, Lu You was dismissed twice, mainly because he advocated the use of troops. Although Lu You's patriotic enthusiasm has been hit hard, his patriotism has never wavered. This is fully reflected in his poems.
Yongmei is the representative of Mei Jizhi, and his plum blossoms "are scattered into mud and ground into dust, with only one fragrance", which is an image portrayal of the poet's spirit of unremitting struggle against evil forces throughout his life and his unswerving character of ideals.
