The emperor in the poem "Ming Wang Playing Ball" is Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty. Ming Wang Playing Ball is a unique poem written by Chao Shuozhi, a poet in Song Dynasty. This poem expresses the poet's feelings about reality by reciting historical facts in paintings. The first two sentences are about the rising weather with the palace gate wide open in the Tang Dynasty and Xuanzong's triumphant appearance after playing football. The last two sentences are that the poet is venting his resentment, which is not only a satire on Tang Xuanzong, but also a praise and regret for loyal ministers. The whole poem is fluent, concise, short in length but extraordinary in conception.
Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, was not only a wise son of heaven in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, but also a bad king who was greedy for beauty, arrogant and extravagant, and almost ruined the life of the Li and Tang Dynasties. Scholars in Tang and Song Dynasties talked about its success or failure, expressed their opinions and pointed out many thought-provoking problems. This song "The Picture of Ming Wang Playing Ball" is a better one. This poem, written at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, was written by Chao Shuozhi after reading the Painting of Playing in the Tang Dynasty by the Song Dynasty painter Li.
The main reason why Zhang Jiuling retired in his later years was that he didn't want to make great efforts in the later period of Xuanzong in Tang Dynasty. He only believes in Li, a traitor with a double lip. He is only willing to listen to flattery, not to the harsh words of courtiers who dare to speak frankly. The lack of remonstrance in the Ming Dynasty seems to be the direct result of the death of nine-year-old Han Xiu, but in fact it implies a psychological activity: those annoying old ministers are gone, and I just want to have fun. Even Zhang Jiuling and Han Xiu are gone, and there should be no official in the DPRK, suggesting that the key is that Emperor Xuanzong will never appoint an official again. Therefore, although the last two sentences of the poem seem to be objective statements, they are actually accusing Tang Xuanzong of being extravagant and blaming the country everywhere, revealing the poet's warning to the feudal rulers that joy brings sadness.
