Lu You China, a great patriotic poet in ancient China, has a well-known ancient poem-Xiuer. The poem reads: "When you die, you know that everything is empty, but you see Kyushu's sadness." Julian Waghann set the Central Plains Day in the north, and the family did not forget to tell Nai Weng about it. "This poem is a father's last words to his son. This poem expresses that an old man who is dying will never forget the broken motherland invaded by foreign enemies. He hoped that his children would not forget to tell him the good news of victory on the day when the motherland was recovered. From this poem, people can feel an old poet's strong patriotic feelings on his deathbed. He was the greatest patriotic poet in ancient China.
Lu You, a poet of Southern Song Dynasty in China, was born in 1 125. In the era of Lu You's life, Jin Guo, the northern minority regime, frequently waged wars against Song Dynasty. The poor and weak Song Dynasty lost a lot of land and was forced to move southward constantly, and the people lived in war and turmoil. As a teenager, Lu You had to flee with his family and suffered from being displaced from place to place.
Lu You was influenced by his father's strong patriotic thought since childhood, and he developed a character of worrying about the country and the people and longing for national reconstruction very early. In order to realize the ideal of serving the motherland, he paid special attention to studying the art of war. At the age of 20, he wrote in a poem, "Get on the horse and attack the crazy Hu, dismount the grass army", hoping to go to the battlefield in person one day and kill the enemy to serve the country. However, it was not until he was in his forties that he had the opportunity to be an officer in the army and realized his wish for many years.
Less than a year's military life left a deep imprint on Lu You's life and creation. Wearing a military uniform, he traveled to and from the front. The hard life and patriotic enthusiasm of the soldiers who fought against the enemy greatly expanded his poetic realm, and the tragic hero became the keynote of his life's poetry creation.
1 162, Zhao Shen of Song Xiaozong used the hawk Zhang Jun to prepare for the Northern Expedition. Xiao Zong summoned Lu You, who took this opportunity to put forward many political and military ideas and gave Zhao Shen strong support. However, when the Northern Expedition failed, Song made peace with Jin once again, Xiao Zong's will was shaken, the main peace faction in the DPRK rose again, Zhang Jun was dismissed from office, and Lu You was also dismissed from his post and returned to his hometown. 1 170, Lu You went to Kuizhou (now fengjie county, Sichuan) as a general judge. Later, he went to the shogunate of Fu Xuan's ambassador to Sichuan, Wang Yan, to deal with military affairs, and actively put forward the operational strategy of restoring the Central Plains to Wang Yan. However, due to the obstruction and destruction of the Korean capitulators, Wang Yan was recalled to the court and the shogunate was scattered. Not only did Lu You's fighting idea not come true, but he was also transferred to the appeasement department of Chengdu Prefecture as an official.
11In the summer of' 73, he served as the judge (deputy state official) of Zhou Shu (Sichuan and Chongqing). Soon, he was transferred to the History Department (Leshan, Sichuan) and returned to Zhou Shu at the end of the year. There is no way to serve the country and love the people. Finally, in 1 174 10, Lu You was transferred to Rongzhou (Rongxian County, Sichuan Province) to take charge of state affairs. Although Lu You has been in Zhou Shucai for more than a year, he has deep feelings for Zhou Shu. Even when he returned to his hometown in Yin Shan, Zhejiang Province in his later years, he wrote many poems in memory of Zhou Shu. Zhou Shuren people also miss the poet Jean Songweng. When the poet grew up, he built a temple next to the People's Flower Pool for him and Zhao Tuan (a court official in the Song Dynasty who used to be an official), named Zhao Temple, and later renamed it "Erxian Temple". Now, "Erxian Temple" has been transformed into "Luyou Memorial Hall".
As an outstanding poet, Lu You wrote more than 9,300 poems in his life. Most of these poems are related to fighting against invaders. Or describe the fiery military life, "fall off your clothes and lie on your pillow, sleep in first frost", or place deep worries about the future and destiny of the motherland and gloomy mood full of enthusiasm for serving the country.
Lu You's poems are full of ardent patriotic enthusiasm and sympathize with the sufferings of the people at that time. The thoughts of worrying about the country and the people are interwoven in his works. In his poems such as Big Breath and Autumn Harvest Song, he exposed the exploitation of the lower class people by the bureaucrats and powerful people, and at the same time, he truly wrote the excellent qualities of the lower class people's diligence and kindness.
In addition to poetry, Lu You also created many excellent prose works. Some of these works record trivial matters of life, some discuss the national economy and people's livelihood, and some describe the deeds of friends, but they are full of patriotic feelings and have strong appeal.
Lu You has suffered a lot in his life and has a full understanding of the living environment of ordinary people. His works reflect the depth and breadth of life, reaching a height that contemporary poets cannot reach.
Lu You's rich creative practice had a positive impact on his later literary circles in the Song Dynasty, but what was more remarkable was his strong and persistent patriotism. His poems and prose works are a great spiritual inspiration to the people oppressed by other nationalities. Whenever the nation lives or dies, people can't help but think of this poet who deeply cares about the fate of the motherland in his 85-year-old life.
For more than 800 years, Zhou Shuren people have been thinking of this great patriotic poet. People came thousands of miles to pay tribute to Lu You. Qihuachi is the place where Lu You lived. The waterside pavilions, trees and flowers here are all engraved with the poems of the great poet who cares about the country and the people.
His poem "Reading on a Winter Night and Showing the Son" has become a famous sentence throughout the ages, telling people that a person who has both book knowledge and practical experience is a truly learned person, and "Showing the Son" is Lu You's masterpiece. In this poem, we can see Lu You's eternal patriotic feelings, and he still has to recover lost ground after his death.
