Common allusions in ancient poetry

1, the moon: generally refers to homesickness, such as "Looking up at it, I found it was moonlight, and then sinking back, and I suddenly remembered home" in Li Yu's Yu Meiren, "The east wind blew in the small building last night, so my country can't look back at the bright moon".

2. Willow: Because of the homonym of "willow" and "stay", it generally refers to parting, such as "Where to wake up tonight, Yang Liuan, the breeze is fading away" in Liu Yong's Yulin Ling. In addition, willow can refer to homesickness. For example, Li Bai's "Who can't afford it?"

3. Cicada: a symbol of noble quality. For example, who knows if he is still singing? From Luo's Political Prisoner Listening to Cicada to Li Shangyin and Yu Shinan's Knowing, Live a Pure Life Like You.

4. Pavilion: a symbol of farewell. For example, in Li Bai's Bodhisattva Man, "Where is the return journey? The long pavilion is connected with the short pavilion, and Liu Yong's "Lin Yuling" is "cold and sad, and the long pavilion is late."

5, sub-rules: a symbol of a miserable atmosphere. For example, Li Bai's worry about the empty mountain in Shu Dao Nan, the weeping sound of Du Fu in Bai Juyi's Pipa Trip, and the crying sound of Wang Changling falling into the French Open when he moved to Longbiao Kiln.

6, humming: a symbol of desolation. For example, in Du Fu's "Climbing the Mountain", the ape whimpers in the wide sky and the wind, and in Li Daoyuan's "Notes on Water Classics", the ape cries three times and touches the petticoat.

7. Qiangdi: a symbol of sadness. For example, Wang Zhihuan's "Liangzhou Ci" says "Why should the Qiang flute complain about the willow", Bai Xuege's "Farewell Field-Attendant Wu Comes Home" says "And play his piano, guitar and harp", and Fan Zhongyan's "The Fisherman's Pride" says that Qiang Guan is full of frost.

8. Hongyan: a symbolic messenger. For example, Yan Shu's Qingpingle said, "The geese are in the clouds, the fish are in the water, who will send this melancholy feeling", and Li Qingzhao's Plum and Plum, "The geese return, and the west building will be full tomorrow" and so on.

9. Banana: a symbol of parting. For example, in Tang Duoling, Wu Wenying, even if it doesn't rain, bananas always whiz by; In Ge Shengchong's "Dianjiang Lip", you are worried and dream of chasing banana rain; In Jie Jiang's pruning, cherries are red and bananas are green.

10, phoenix tree: a symbol of bitterness. For example, after the autumn rain in Bai Juyi's Song of Eternal Sorrow, the leaves of Laka fell to the ground, and the solitary phoenix tree in Li Yu's Meet Huan locked the autumn in the deep courtyard. In Li Qingzhao's slow whisper, the phoenix tree drizzled bit by bit.
