Dare to laugh at Huang Chao for not being her husband
People connect the two controversial figures Huang Chao and Song Jiang because of a poem written by Song Jiang after drinking. The poem says: My heart is in Shandong and my body is in Wu. The rivers and seas are fluttering and sighing. If he was so ambitious, he dared to laugh at Huang Chao for not being her husband! Among them, "Dare to laugh at Huang Chao's disobedience to his husband" in this poem expresses Song Jiang's contempt for Huang Chao, believing that Huang Chao is not a man, but he is the man.
Huang Chao Uprising
However, the two people still have similarities. Both men were leaders of peasant uprisings, which occurred at the end of the heyday of dynasties. The Huangchao Uprising occurred in the last years of the Tang Dynasty, leading to the demise of the Tang Dynasty and entering the stage of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. Song Jiang's uprising occurred in the last years of the Song Dynasty, but its impact was far less than that of Huang Chao's uprising. Regardless of historical prejudice, Huang Chao's influence far exceeds that of Song Jiang. With the support of the rebels, Huang Chao proclaimed himself king, called himself the Soaring General, and established the political power of Da Qi. He is a quite remarkable figure in history.
Huang Chao was the leader of the peasant uprising army in the late Tang Dynasty. Due to his extraordinary courage and brave character, he became the highest leader of the uprising army after Wang Xianzhi. He traveled to various places and finally marched Chang'an became king until he died on the battlefield. Song Jiang is one of the legendary figures in "Water Margin". He was the leader of the 108 generals of Liangshan Heroes. He was originally Yasi. After the death of Chao Gai, the king of Tota, he became the leader of Liangshan. He strongly advocated letting heroes They accepted the imperial court's invitation and after the invitation, they attacked the rebels for the Song Dynasty, but were poisoned by treacherous officials soon after.
The two figures are not big figures who changed dynasties in history, but are bits and pieces in many peasant uprisings, and they have only left a few strokes in the long river of history. However, the two men's military exploits in the south and north were outstanding, leaving a short page in history. Huang Chao's poems
Currently, there are three widely circulated poems about Huang Chao, namely "Inscribed on Chrysanthemums", "Ode to Chrysanthemums after Not Di" and "Self-Inscribed Portrait". These three poems have a progressive relationship in time, from Huang Chao's youth to middle age and then to old age, describing the changes in Huang Chao's mood in different periods.
Portrait of Huang Chao
"Inscribed on Chrysanthemums" is a poem he wrote when he was young. At this time, he was full of pride and ambition, showing the pride of his youth. Ambition. This poem is the first poem he wrote for chrysanthemums. He writes about chrysanthemums from the perspective of a bystander, expressing sympathy for the unfair fate of chrysanthemums and wanting to help chrysanthemums escape from this fate.
"Ode to Chrysanthemums after Budi" is a poem written after he encountered great changes in his life. He failed repeatedly, his business went bankrupt, and his life was unstable. It was a heavy blow mentally and psychologically. So, he compared himself to a chrysanthemum, wanting to get rid of his tragic fate and fighting against fate. Afterwards, in the last years of the Tang Dynasty, there was the most brutal battle in history. The bloody storm spread across the entire land, and Huang Chao began his uprising. The "wohua" in this poem, to apply the modern version, refers to the broad masses of farmers. Huang Chao abandoned his titles as a son of a rich family and an intellectual, and became the leader of the peasant uprising. He was full of murderous intent and despised everything, and a murderous demon was born. This peasant uprising lasted for ten years and established the peasant political power. It also had a certain impact on the advancement of history.
"Self-Inscribed Portrait" is a poem he wrote in his later years. The poem shows a calm and composed Confucian style, although some people suspect that it was not written by him himself.
