Outside the bridge, the plum blossoms are lonely, no matter what.
Twilight arrival, plum blossom is helpless, exhausted, and has to withstand the wind and rain.
Plum blossoms don't want to compete for blooming, and the envy and rejection of flowers don't care.
Even after autumn, when it is ground into dirt and turned into dust, plum blossoms still emit fragrance as usual.
Moral: Outside the postal kiosk, beside the broken bridge, flowers bloom lonely, but nobody cares. Every day when the sun goes down, there will always be lonely worries in my heart, especially when it is windy and rainy.
I don't want to try my best to fight for love, but I let the flowers envy me. Dead branches and leaves turn into mud and grind into dust, but only fragrance remains.
Appreciation: This is Yongmei's poem written by Lu You, but it is actually Lu You's own poem. The first part describes the experience of plum blossom: it takes root outside the desolate postal kiosk, next to the broken bridge. Posthouse is a place where people who delivered official documents and traveled in ancient times rested. Coupled with the ups and downs at dusk, how desolate and desolate this environment is! The experience of writing plum blossoms is also the political experience of the author being excluded from writing.
The next article is about the character of plum blossom: a hundred flowers are blooming, but I have no intention of competing with them for spring. Even if it fades and falls, I still keep that fragrance. The last two sentences are the spirit of Li Sao, "I don't know what it is, but I believe it is." "Although I haven't changed my body, I can't be punished." It is more profound than Wang Anshi's sentence of Yongxing: "It is better to be blown into snow by the east wind than to be crushed into dust by the south stranger."
Lu You's political career: he was recommended to be the first in the exam in his early years and was jealous of Qin Gui; Filial piety was excluded by a group of villains such as Long Dayuan and Zeng Yi. When I was in the shogunate of Wang Yan in Sichuan, I had to go through the Central Plains and saw myself entangled in the ruling clique, unable to fulfill my ambition. In his later years, he was in favor of the northern expedition of Han Biaozhou, who was framed after his failure. When we read his first poem, we can see that it is the epitome of his life experience and political experience. The plum blossom in his ci is the embodiment of his noble character.
The literati in Tang and Song Dynasties praised the character of plum blossom, which was different from the literati in Six Dynasties. But the famous sentence "Dim fragrance, thin shadow" written by Lin Hejing is just the feelings of a master and a hermit; Although some writers use plum blossoms to write their own characters, they can only say: "There is no spring breeze, how can it be * * *?" Haitang said. "(Su Tailai's first frost Corner in the Southern Song Dynasty? Yongmei ") This is just one aspect of Lu You's ci" No desire for spring, everyone is jealous ". Chen Liang, a good friend of Lu You, has four plum blossom poems: "A flower suddenly changes, and all flowers are fragrant. If you want to spread the message of spring, you are not afraid of snow burial. "Writing one's own vision, not afraid of attack and upholding justice in politics is the embodiment of Justin Chen's whole personality. The word Lu You is the proud image of a frustrated hero. In my opinion, in the Song Dynasty, these were two outstanding works of writing plum blossom poems.
Appreciation: The author notes "Yongmei" in this poem, but there is a hint, just like Mr. Lian Xi (Zhou Dunyi), who "only loves lotus flowers and doesn't dye mud, and doesn't be a demon", uses the lotus flower metaphor, and the author uses the plum blossom metaphor.
Lu You once praised plum blossom "The more awe-inspiring the snow, the stronger the integrity in the flower" ("Falling Plum"). Plum blossoms are so beautiful and unique that they are above all flowers, but now they are open outside the country post station, close to the broken bridge. Nature is cold, lonely, indifferent and left out. From this sentence, we can know that it is neither a plum in the government nor a plum in a famous garden, but a "wild plum" growing in a remote suburb. It doesn't get the care it deserves and no one appreciates it. With the metabolism of the four seasons, it opens silently and withers silently. Everything is lonely. Look around blankly.-Who cares? This is a plum without a master. In the sentence "Loneliness without the owner", the poet poured his feelings into the objective scenery. The first sentence is the scenery language, which is already the language of love.
Sunset dusk, twilight hazy, how can this lonely plum bear this desolation? It has only "troubles"-and it is "alone troubles". These words echo the "loneliness" of the previous sentence. Moreover, it happened that at this time, the wind blew again and it rained. The word "tiller" is equally powerful, describing the difficult situation of plum blossom. However, despite the cold environment, it is still "open"! It, "all trees are cold and colorless, and the south branch is alone" (Daoyuan); It, "dare to spend it in Xiang Xue, the only tree attracts the spring of the world" (Yang Weizhen). In short, judging from the above four sentences, this pressure on plum blossoms is everywhere, in the sky and underground, but all this was finally broken by it, because it was still open! Who is the winner? It should be said that it is plum blossom!
Shang Kun concentrated on the difficult situation of Meihua, and it did have "troubles". From an artistic point of view, when the author writes his worries, he does not use the usual metaphors of poets and poets to write such worries, but uses environment, time and natural phenomena to contrast them. Kuang Zhouyi said: "Words take God from a distance and only describe the scenery, while God speaks for himself. This is a master." () That is to say, the poet describes so many "landscapes" in order to get the "divine inspiration" of plum blossoms; "Those who are deeper than romance are good at writing landscapes" (Tian Tongzhi's xipu Ci). The last four sentences can be said to be "double painting of scenes"
There's a message from Temple. Plum blossom, it blooms the earliest. "All the trees are frozen and ready to fold, and the lonely roots are warm and lonely" (Miracle); "I don't know if the recent spray started first, but I suspect it didn't disappear after the winter snow" (Zhang Wei). It is it that ushered in spring. But it "has no intention of fighting for spring." In spring, hundreds of flowers are in full bloom, competing for novelty and beauty, while plum blossoms do not "compete for spring". Han Ling started first, just to welcome a little sincerity in spring. People who are "bitter" are desperate, desperate and try their best. Satire the square group from the side. Plum blossoms don't mean to compete for spring. If Fang Qun is jealous, it's their own business. Let's be jealous for a while. Here, writing and writing are completely intertwined. The ruthlessness of flowers and trees is a natural phenomenon, and saying "striving for spring" is a metaphor. "Jealousy" is not owned by vegetation. These two sentences show Lu Wei's arrogance, never interacting with spoilers, inviters and flatterers, and his arrogance of not being afraid of slander, loyalty and self-control.
The last words. By going up one flight of stairs, the "unique height" of plum blossom, said: "Scattered into mud, ground into dust, but the fragrance remains unchanged". The previous sentence inherited the miserable situation of loneliness, sunset, wind and rain, etc. These seven words were frustrated four times: "falling", which was unbearable to be destroyed by sudden wind and rain, and plum blossoms fell one after another. This is the first floor. It's on the second floor. Mud and water are mixed. You can't tell which is the flower and which is the mud. Judging from the word "grinding", it shows the ruthlessness of the abuser and the great pressure of the abuser, which is the third layer. As a result, plum blossoms were trampled and turned to dust. This is the fourth floor. You see, the fate of plum blossoms is so tragic that it is almost unbearable to read. But the author's purpose is by no means to arouse people's sympathy just to write about the tragic experience of plum blossoms; In terms of writing techniques, it is still paving the way and getting ready to go, in order to reach the peak of the next meaning. Although the plum blossom has withered, it has been trampled into dirt and crushed into dust. Please see, "only the fragrance will remain unchanged", but its "unique rhyme" fragrance will never change, and it will not change at all.
The last sentence has great power to carry the tripod, awakening the whole article, and throwing the unfortunate situation of plum blossoms ahead, the bleak, declining and sad situation that wind and rain hit, withered and fell, and turned into dust, to the outside of the cloud nine at once. It is "the last sentence depends on the end" (Zhuo Renyue's Ci Tong). The reason why this "festival" can be "imagined" is precisely because this word is very successful in the use of metaphor, which left us a very deep impression and became Yongmei's masterpiece.
