The breeze blows the green willows, and the white water reflects the heart.
Sailing on the blue waves, people are traveling in a picture world.
Interpretation of vernacular:
Green willows blow gently in the breeze, and clear lake reflects brilliant red peach blossoms. We took a boat to roam on the blue waves and saw the beautiful scenery on both sides of the strait. We were just like visiting in beautiful paintings. "
Extended data writing background:
In the twenty-fourth year of Kaiyuan (736), he was transferred to supervise the censor, and was later ordered to leave the fort as our envoy to Liangzhou Hexi. After becoming an official, Wang Wei used his leisure time in officialdom to build a villa at the foot of the South Blue Sky Mountain in Beijing to cultivate his self-cultivation.
The owner of this villa is Song Wenzhi, a poet in the early Tang Dynasty. This is a very vast place, with mountains and lakes, Woods and valleys, and some houses scattered among them. Wang Wei and his intimate friends live a leisurely life and live a semi-official and semi-secluded life.
In 756, Chang 'an was captured by rebels, and Wang Wei was arrested and forced to assume a false post. After the war subsided, Wang Wei was imprisoned and handed over to the headquarters for trial.
It stands to reason that he should be beheaded for joining the rebels. However, when he was captured, he wrote "Ningbi Pool" to express the pain of national subjugation and his nostalgia for the imperial court. Because his brother assistant minister of punishments made meritorious deeds, he requested to cut books for his brother's atonement. Wang was pardoned and reduced to the crown prince's permission, and then moved to Zhongshu to give up his family business, and finally he became an official.
Wang Wei had positive political ambitions in his early years, hoping to make a great career. Later, the political situation changed, and he gradually became depressed, fasting and chanting Buddha. In his forties, he deliberately built a villa in Wangchuan, Lantian County, southeast of Chang 'an, and lived a semi-official and semi-secluded life on Zhong Nanshan Mountain. Wang Wei's achievements in poetry are various, including frontier poems, landscape poems, metrical poems and quatrains.
