The power of death and mourning, brother Kong Huai. The original Xisi is here, and my brothers are asking for help.

The order of the spine is still there, and the brothers are in urgent need. Every time I have a good friend, I will always sigh.

The brothers are jealous of each other and guard their affairs outside the wall. Whenever there are good friends, there will be no enemies.

The chaos and chaos are calmed down, and peace and tranquility are achieved. Although we have brothers, it is better to have friends.

My wife is as harmonious as a drum, harp, and harp. Brothers are both peaceful and harmonious.

If you have a good family, you can enjoy your wife and money. It’s just a picture, it’s so natural.

Solution:

This is a poem in which nobles entertain their brothers and praise their brotherly harmony. In the poem, Tang Di is used as a metaphor for brothers, which has become a common allusion. This poem had a great influence. Later generations' feelings about Hua Calyx, Tang Di, Ji Ling, and Kong Huaibi all took their meaning from this poem.

Notes:

Tangdi: Tangdi is also called Yuli or June cherry. It has white or pink flowers, smaller fruits than plums, and is edible. It belongs to the Prunus genus of the Rosaceae family. Tangdi flowers are decorated with two or three flowers, with long stems and drooping flowers. The poet compares Chang Di's flowers to brothers, perhaps because every two or three flowers are dependent on each other, so he associates them with each other.

Hua: Flower. Ebu: Flower pedicle. "E" is cited as "calyx" in "Shuowen". The word "no" is the pictogram of flower stalk in oracle bone inscriptions. Weiwei (yinwei): distinctive appearance, grand appearance. No: particle.

Wei: fear. Kong Huai: Kong, most, very. I miss you caring the most. Yuanxi (sound custom): original, wilderness. Xi, depression.

Pei (sound) Ju: to gather. Gathering in the wilderness seems to refer to something like war. "Ji Zhuan": "Pei, gathering... As for the piles of corpses gathered in the wilderness, it is just brothers seeking each other." One said "Pei" is pronounced as "裣" (Bo bó), which means death. Xu Ling (sound profile order): Xu: gathering soil into piles.

Jiling (yinjiling): the name of a water bird, usually called "wagtail". The head is black and the forehead is white, the back is black and the belly is white, and the tail is long. Every: Although. I still say it often.

Kang: It means "崶", which means giving. The above two sentences mean that in times of crisis, some good friends can only sigh for them instead of rushing to help like brothers. Forever: Forever.

Brothers are quarreling at home. Royal: resistance.

Business: Insult. Hao: Eventually. Rong: Help.

Although: pronouncing words, it is connected with "wei". Friends: friends, friends. Health: pronounce words. Like a rhetorical question.

Zhan: Profound. Appropriate: gentle. Guan (sound slave): refers to "孥", children, children.

Best: furnishings. 饫 (Yinyu): satisfied, full, refers to a family banquet that encourages people to drink. Ru: blind date. Study: ponder deeply. Realize the truth of the above two sentences with your heart. Image: Consider. Try your best to do it.

亶 (Yin Dan): indeed; faith, certainty. It: refers to a comfortable home and a happy wife and money. Yes, so.

Translation

The flowers on the Tangli tree are in bloom, with the receptacle and the pedicle dependent on each other. Friends in this world are ordinary people, and family ties are incomparable to those of brothers.

When death threats come, the concern of brothers is the most heart-wrenching. After losing their lives in the wilderness, brothers went to the graves to offer sacrifices to each other.

The wagtail is sick and trapped in the countryside, and it is up to his brothers to save him from danger. I don't have many friends at ordinary times, and I only sigh when I comfort them.

Brothers within the family fight among themselves to resist being bullied by outsiders. Although they are good friends at ordinary times, they do not help at critical times.

The chaos and disasters have subsided, and life is stable with no problem. At this time, the friendship between compatriots and brothers is closer than family affection.

Arrange bowls and plates at home, and enjoy the family feast. Brothers and relatives are all here, and the peace and joy are so sweet.

The love between husband and wife and the harmonious family affairs are like the harmonious sounds of drums, harps and harps. When brothers meet and reunite, the days of peace and joy are beautiful.

The family will be harmonious and everything will be prosperous, and the wife and children will be happy.

Thinking deeply about brotherhood, is this statement true?
