"Pei Yao-shun's Geng Jiexi, who followed the Tao and got the road" comes from Li Sao.
Li Sao is the masterpiece of Qu Yuan, a famous poet in the Warring States Period, and the longest romantic political lyric poem in the history of ancient poetry in China. The poet described his life experience, moral character and ideal, expressed his anguish and contradiction of being killed by slander, reprimanded the fatuity of the king of Chu, the rampant group of small people and the failure to govern Japan, and showed the poet's fighting spirit of adhering to the ideal of "beautiful politics", attacking the dark reality, not colluding with evil forces and his patriotic enthusiasm until death.
Li Sao is a romantic lyric poem with practical significance. In the poem, no matter the portrayal of the hero image or the description of some things, the poet uses a lot of exaggerated romantic expressions. The full use of myths and legends has spread colorful fantasy wings and strengthened the romantic charm of Li Sao.
in Li Sao, the use of comparison and arousal is very common. For example, he uses vanilla as a metaphor for the nobleness of the poet, the relationship between men and women as a metaphor for the relationship between monarch and minister, and driving a horse as a metaphor for governing the country.
