Extended information:
Wang Wan was from Luoyang and "often traveled between Wu and Chu" throughout his life. "Beigu Mountain" is located north of present-day Zhenjiang City, Jiangsu Province, facing the river on three sides. The first two sentences quoted from "Jiangnan Yi" are "There are many new ideas in the south, and traveling eastward is waiting for the morning."
The "eastward journey" should be through Zhenjiang to the Jiangnan area. The poet was traveling along the way. When the boat came to the foot of Beigu Mountain, the tide was flat and the shore was wide, and the geese returned at night. This triggered the emotions in his heart and composed this eternal famous poem. ?
The poem begins with a couplet, which is both beautifully crafted and out-of-the-box. "Kelu" refers to the way the author wants to go. The title of "Qingshan" refers to "Beigu Mountain". The author is taking a boat, heading towards the "green water" displayed in front of him, towards the "green mountains", and towards the distant "guest road" beyond the "green mountains".
This couplet first writes "guest travel" and then "boat trip". The person's wandering travels in the south of the Yangtze River and longing for his hometown have been revealed between the lines. "Guiyan" means taking care of each other from afar.
