Appreciation of Liu Yuxi's "Water Flowing East on the Waves"

Langtaosha Liu Yuxi's Bianshui Flowing East is an excellent ancient poem describing the historical changes and beautiful scenery of Bianshui. In this poem, Liu Yuxi shows the magnificent and historical background of Bianshui through the description of Bianshui, and also expresses his deep attachment to Bianshui.

Historical changes of Bianshui

Bianshui is one of the most important canals in ancient China and one of the oldest and longest canals in the world. Bianshui has been the economic lifeline of northern China since ancient times. It connects the Yellow River and the Yangtze River and becomes an important hub for north-south traffic. Historically, Bianshui was once one of the most prosperous commercial centers in China, and it was also one of the important cradles of culture and technology in China.

However, with the changes of history, Bianshui has also experienced vicissitudes. In the Tang Dynasty, Bianshui reached its peak, but in the Five Dynasties, Bianshui suffered a devastating war, the dam of the canal was destroyed and the river flooded, which led to the interruption of the canal. It was not until the Song Dynasty that Bianshui was restored and its operation resumed. But with the passage of time, the importance of Bianshui gradually declined. Until modern times, Bianshui was no longer the main transportation channel in China.

Bianshui has beautiful scenery.

In addition to historical vicissitudes, Bianshui has unique natural scenery. Liu Yuxi wrote in his poem: "Bianshui is vast, and spring flows all day long according to the mountain." This sentence depicts the scene of water in spring. The clear river is rippling in the sun, and the mountains on the side are resplendent.

The beauty of Bianshui is not only in spring, but also in different seasons. Bianshui in summer, the river is clear, cool and clean, and the flowing water brushed by willows along the coast constitutes a beautiful picture. Bianshui in autumn is a golden ocean, and maple leaves, phoenix trees and ginkgo trees are swaying in the autumn wind, giving people infinite reverie. In winter, the Bianhe River is covered with silver, the river is frozen, and the willow branches on the bank are covered with snow, showing a cold and beautiful scene.

Liu Yuxi's affectionate attachment

Liu Yuxi is a writer and politician. He was the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty. His poems are famous for being fresh, refined, beautiful and natural, and are known as one of the "eight masters in Tang and Song Dynasties". Bianshui is a frequent theme in his poems.

Liu Yuxi's deep attachment to Bianshui reflects his yearning for his hometown. He once spent his youth by the Bianshui River, where the scenery and human feelings were deeply imprinted in his heart. In his poems, the edge water is his source of inspiration and his spiritual sustenance.
