a song of the spring palace
Wang Changling
Last night, the spring breeze blew the peach blossoms in the well, and the moon in front of Weiyang Palace hung high in the sky.
Pingyang's geisha was attracted by the emperor, who gave her a brocade robe in the cold weather outside the curtain.
These include:
1) Weiyang: the name of Han Palace, also refers to Tang Palace.
2) Pingyang Song and Dance: The singer in Princess Pingyang's Home.
The main idea of this poem is:
Last night, the spring breeze blew the peach blossoms by the well.
The moon shines high in the front hall of Weiyang Palace.
Princess Pingyang's singer was recently favored by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
It was chilly outside the curtain, so the emperor specially gave her a brocade robe.
About this poem, we can appreciate it like this:
During the Tianbao period, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty indulged in Yang Yuhuan and was extremely promiscuous. Comparing the Tang Dynasty with the Han Dynasty, the poet drew a story about Emperor Wu's preference for Wei Zifu and abandoning Empress Chen, and covered all his satirical poems? Palace resentment? Smoke bomb
More subtly, the poet wrote about the dissatisfaction of the court, but literally, he didn't see any dissatisfaction. He only focuses on describing the favor of the new couple from the perspective of a person who has fallen out of favor. In this way, he only talks about the favor of others, while his own has fallen out of favor and is carefree.
Last night, the wind blew out the peaches? Point out the season and get to the point? Spring? Words; The peach trees beside the open well (the well not covered by the well pavilion) have blossomed in the spring breeze.
Is the moon high in Weiyang, Qian Dian? Point out the place and get to the point? Palace? Words. In the front hall of Weiyang Palace, the full moon is shining brightly.
Literally, the two poems only depict a natural scene of spring, tranquility and silence, which is a metaphor for the singer's love, just like a peach blossom dipped in rain and dew, and it is a kind of writing that is both happy and compared.
The last two sentences are about the origin of the newcomer and the specific situation of her favor. Wei Zifu was originally a singer of Princess Pingyang. Because of his beauty and good dancing skills, he was chosen by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and called into the palace. He was very lucky. ? New pet? In short, it is at this point that I made a fortune.
In order to specify the favor for newcomers, the fourth sentence selects a typical detail. Peach blossoms in the well indicate that it is already the season of spring, but the emperor of Man Chong, still afraid of the cold spring outside the curtain, gave him a brocade robe to show his excessive concern.
This poem satirizes the emperor's indulgence, liking the new and hating the old, through his resentment against the imperial concubine who fell out of favor in the Syrian palace. This specious artistic technique hits the nail on the head and embodies Wang Changling's four-line poem? Affectionate and bitter, vague, unpredictable and endless? The characteristics of.
