Third, the creative background:

After Lin Zifang was promoted to Jinshi, he served as the secretary of Zhige (a civil servant responsible for drafting letters for the emperor, which can be said to be the secretary of the emperor). Yang Wanli, then the subordinate supervisor of the secretary and the assistant of the prince, was Lin Zifang's superior and good friend. They often get together to talk about the idea of strengthening the country and resisting gold, and also discuss poetry and literature together. They share the same interests and regard each other as bosom friends.

Later, Lin Zifang was transferred from the emperor's side to work in Fuzhou, and the position was well known. Lin Zifang is very happy and thinks that she is a career promotion. Yang Wanli doesn't think so. When sending Lin Zifang to Fuzhou, he wrote this poem to persuade Lin Zifang not to go to Fuzhou.
