This poem, Selected Poems of Hua 'an, entitled "Remembering Dreams", is Li Qingzhao's only bold word, which is her work after crossing the south. Generally speaking, the poems written by Li Qingzhao after crossing the south are gloomy and sad, but this one is an exception.
Shortly after Li Qingzhao crossed the south, her husband Zhao Mingcheng died of illness. The destruction of the country and the death of her husband have dealt a great blow to her life and spirit. Since then, she has been wandering alone in the south of the Yangtze River, and spent a difficult time alone, in a dilemma of "a long way to go". But she is a straightforward, soft and firm person who doesn't want to be bound by real life, so sometimes the wings of imagination will fly to another world. She fantasized about a way to let her spirit rest in peace, so as to get rid of the boundless and hopeless situation ahead. So, the dream crossed the clouds, crossed the Tianhe River, returned to the palace, and took Wan Lifeng to Xianshan. This heroic spirit and extraordinary feat make this poem show a romantic mood and bold style that is quite different from her other ci styles.
At the beginning of the word, it reads: "When the sky meets clouds, the Milky Way wants to turn to Qian Fan dance." Draw a magnificent scenery like a fairyland. The "Galaxy" here is the Milky Way. It means that the sky is connected with the billowing clouds, which are connected with the morning fog and look hazy. Looking from a distance through the clouds, the waves in the Milky Way are rough, as if to turn the whole river upside down. Many sailboats in the river jump in the rolling waves, and their sails swing like dancing in the Milky Way. This is about the clouds in the sky, which can be described as varied. Although she wrote the natural scene imagined by the author in her dream, this fantasy is undoubtedly a hint of her subconscious, which has experienced difficulties and obstacles in her life. Therefore, there is both a magnificent side and a dangerous side. It shows an open field, morning fog chaos, rolling clouds and waves, rolling Galaxy and Qian Fan racing. This realm is like a fairyland, in which the author experienced it. So gradually let her dream soul seem to return to the palace where the Emperor of Heaven lived. -"It seems that the dream soul belongs to the emperor." "Imperial House" refers to the palace where the Emperor of Heaven lives. In fact, this is the bright future that people hope and pursue after suffering. The reason why she dreamed of returning to the "land of kings" has its ideological roots. Ancient poets often fantasize that they are from the palace in the sky, so when they fantasize about a bright future, they often say "belong to the emperor." For example, Su Shi's "Water Tune Song Tou" said: "I don't know the Heaven Palace. What year is tonight? I want to ride home in the wind ... "That is to say, he wants to go back to the palace. So, what if the author's soul returns to the emperor's palace?
"Smell the sky and ask me where to go." She listened to the heavenly emperor talking to her and asked her politely where she was going back. Since Li Qingzhao crossed the south, she has traveled all over the world, been excluded, been hit hard, and tasted the eyes of the world. Now that God is taking care of her, how warm she feels! Aside from subjective motives, the author has objectively made a sharp contrast between heaven and earth, mocking the dark real society. How many things did she complain about during her years in exile? I really got a chance to say it this time. This leads to the next paragraph, which tells her own difficulties and wishes.
"I still have a long way to go, and there are amazing sentences in learning poetry." It means: I told the Emperor of Heaven that I had traveled a long way, and it was dusk, and I hadn't arrived yet. Even if I can write amazing sentences by studying poetry, what's the use? The last sentence, "The road is long, and the sun is setting in Xiu Yuan", comes from Qu Yuan's Lisao: "If you want to stay less angry, it will be dusk in the morning. ... Ruman Manqi Xiu Yuan Xi, I'll search up and down. " In this way, the author expressed his bewilderment on the road of life. "There is a word" here, which vividly shows her wandering and worried expression. The next sentence "you have" means "you have nothing" or "you have nothing". This sentence has two meanings: first, I lament that I am talented and can't serve the world, and I feel that I have no talent; Second, social unrest, the article is useless, there is Li He's "Thirteen South Gardens" in the meaning of "I don't see the three seas every year, where there is an article crying in the autumn wind". The two seem to be opposite, but in fact they are unified and mutually causal. So, since the author has such difficulties, how does she hope to get rid of them? Please see:
"Nine Wan Li Peng Feng positive. When the wind stopped, the ship blew away the three mountains. "She wants to fly high in Wan Lifeng like Dapeng and leave this dirty society. Tell the wind not to stop blowing, blow her canoe to Xianshan and let her live a free life. The sentence of "Nine" comes from "A Happy Tour in Zhuangzi": "Peng's back is far away. Fly away angrily, its wings hang in the sky like clouds. ..... Peng Zhi moved to Nanming, and the water hit three thousand miles, and he rushed to Wan Li. " "Dancing", the name of the wind. "Nine" is an imaginary number, which means more. This sentence shows that the author has the ambition to fly high. "Pengzhou" is a small boat flying like grass. "Three Mountains" refers to the legendary three holy mountains of Penglai, Abbot and Yingzhou. Immortals live here, in the Bohai Sea. Why does the author dream of going to Sanshan? Is it because of the negative thoughts of wandering immortals? That's not true. Judging from the above meaning, it is because she thinks that "the road is long, and it is dusk in Xiu Yuan, and there is an amazing sentence in learning poetry." That is to say, although she is talented, ideal and ambitious, she can't realize and display it in the real society at all, and she can't find a way out, which makes her think so. It can be seen that her fairyland dream is a manifestation of her dissatisfaction with the dark reality. She wants to return to the fairyland without separation, sadness, loneliness and pain, which reflects the reality of war, killing, fraud, loneliness and loneliness in the world. Therefore, her ideological activities are not negative, but positive and of practical significance.
This word is full of romantic thoughts, rich imagination and broad artistic conception. It brought readers to the fairyland and enjoyed the colorful sea of clouds and waves; Dapeng spreads its wings in the vast realm of Wan Li, and the beauty of canoe blowing to the three mountains with the wind is fascinating. This kind of romantic works expressed through the realm of immortals is extremely rare in Li's ci.
Li Qingzhao, a graceful female writer, can write such bold words. Apart from the objective reasons that troubled times forced her to leave the society and face the reality, there are also her subjective factors, namely, active thinking, cheerful personality and daring to think and speak. At the same time, she read a lot of books and has a strong memory. She can remember all the unusual words and facts, which enriches her thinking in images, and enables her to freely write her desire to pursue freedom and a better life for all kinds of myths, legends and allusions, thus forming this bold and romantic poem with great spirit.
