Sima Guang's "Send Yunqing to Zhou Zhiwei": Make contributions and get together again.

In the recent final exam, the reading test of ancient poetry was Sima Guang's "Send Yunqing to Magistrate of a County". I did a search on the Internet and found that there was little analytical information about this poem. Therefore, I want to try to write an analysis of this poem as an exercise. The original text of this poem is as follows:

Khan Jane became a new order, and the curtain stabbed the country.

Wei Ping's French is in place, while Shao's voice is excellent.

Wild bamboo makes water, and autumn melons and vines flourish.

After serving for three years, I will be in charge of the tour of the stone canal.

"Khan is simplified into a new order, and the curtain is stabbed to play the country", and it is well known that it is hard to study at the cold window; Get on the bus and take office in a state with heavy government affairs. Before paper became a writing material, the ancients dried bamboo and made bamboo slips for writing. In this couplet, the poet refers to the book with "Khan Bamboo Slips". After studying hard at the cold window, his friend Yun Qing was appreciated and was appointed as well-known in Weizhou. The poet pointed out the reason of separation with "new order" and described the heavy government affairs in Weizhou with "a theater state", which naturally led to the poet's comfort to his friends.

"Wei Ping's family style is in place, Shao Du's voice is out of line", and the family styles of Wei Xian and Wei Xuancheng, Ping Dang and Yan Ping are still circulating; Shao and Du Shi, two local officials, have made remarkable achievements. In this couplet, the poet used two allusions: Wei and Ping were important to each other in the Western Han Dynasty. Shao of the Western Han Dynasty and Du Shi of the Eastern Han Dynasty both served as the prefect of Nanyang, with remarkable achievements and far-reaching influence. Poets follow the example of these predecessors, encourage their friends, and hope that friends can make contributions like them.

"Wild bamboos meet Qi Shui, and autumn melons and vines are high", and wild bamboos are clustered on both sides of Qi Shui; In autumn, melons and fruits spread in Diqiu. Weizhou was once the political, economic and cultural center of Weiguo, with profound historical and cultural background. In this couplet, the poet outlines the beautiful natural scenery and rich products of Weizhou through imagination, which is reminiscent of the Book of Songs. The poet advised his friends to understand the customs of Weizhou and expressed his comfort to them.

Three years later, when you come to Beijing to check your grades, can you come to Shiqu Pavilion to find me? In the Song Dynasty, the term of office of local officials was three years. During his term of office, there will be a small assessment once a year and a big assessment once every three years, and he will be promoted or dismissed according to the assessment results. "Shiqu" is the name of the Royal Library of Han Dynasty. At this time, the poet was appointed as a scholar proofreader, so the poet called himself "Shiqu". The poet hopes that his friends can make remarkable achievements in three years, and then renew their friendship.

Although this is a farewell poem, the poet does not show the emotion of "crying when leaving" in the poem. Because, in the poet's view, taking office in Weizhou is the court's trust in friends, and it is also a necessary experience for friends in their own lives. So when the poet left, he was full of encouragement and expectation.
