Quote:
The "Tang" of the Zhou Dynasty was the later "Jin". Li Yuan and Li Shimin raised troops in Jin. After the founding of the country, they named the country "Tang", using the ancient name of Jin. The poem "Tang Feng Cailing" is related to a major event that happened in the Jin Dynasty during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. "Mao Shi" said: ""Cailing" is also about assassinating Duke Xian of Jin Dynasty. Duke Xian is so nice and greedy." Duke Xian believed the slander and killed the prince Shensheng. This incident led to many years of turmoil in the Jin State, known as the "Liji Rebellion" in history. Li Ji caused great chaos in the Jin state, so a poet wrote "Tang Feng Cailing" to satirize Duke Xian of Jin for his confusion.
"Collecting lings, picking lings, at the top of Shouyang" is Qixing. Zhu Xi said that Qixing "prefaces other things to trigger the words to be chanted." In the first chapter, "picking 苓苓, the top of Shouyang", in the second chapter, "picking bitterness, picking bitterness, under Shouyang", in the third chapter, "picking 葑豑褑, east of Shouyang" are all used in Chinese. The method of "preface other things" is used to trigger the following. Ling, a yellow medicine, also known as great bitterness. Bitter is a bitter vegetable, also known as "tea". Feng, that is, cabbage, commonly known as kohlrabi. These three plants are all necessities for people's lives in the era of "The Book of Songs" and are closely related to people's lives. This poem is inspired by this, metaphor: Since people are so familiar with them, why do they still listen to other people's random judgments? Doesn’t Duke Xiang of Jin know his son’s character well? Why are you still stupidly listening to Li Ji's nonsense? From this, the next sentence comes out: "No one can trust what he says." Because, the same as "false", this sentence means: Don't believe other people's lies. "Shedding" means giving up, and "zhan" is the harmony of "zhiyan". This sentence means: Give up these lies and don't think they are right. The last sentence "What people say is what they say" means: Those nonsense are all groundless.
This is really a good admonishment poem. It advises people to have three attitudes towards rumors: "no faith", "no follow-up" and "no follow-up". The reason for "no faith" is that you cannot determine the truth or falsehood of the falsehoods; the reason for "no and" is to advise you not to fall into it and be deceived by lies; and "no way" is to advise you to understand that slander can deceive you. Taken into the pit. These three points are also very important to us today, especially in this Internet age, where lies and slander can even become "tornadoes". In times like these, discernment becomes more important. To identify whether a sentence is credible or not, first of all, you must discern the heart of the speaker and see why he said it; secondly, do not participate in the spread of slander and lies, only the wise; lastly, you must not listen to slander and act out of your own imagination.
