The small pavilion hides the spring, the idle win
Man Ting Xiao Fang Pavilion Zangchun
Song Dynasty: Li Qingzhao
The small pavilion hides the spring, the idle window locks the day, and the painting hall is infinitely deep. The seal is burnt out, and the shadow falls on the curtain hook. It's getting better and better to grow Jiang Mei by hand, so why go upstairs in the water? No one arrived, lonely and muddy, He Xun was in Yangzhou.
Never, knowing rhyme wins, embarrassing rain, not resistant to wind rubbing. Whose flute blows out deep sorrow. Don't hate incense to eliminate snow, be sure to guide, sweep away traces and stay. It's hard to say, it's still romantic when the night is bright and full of shadows.
translate
The attic is like spring, and the windows that are not used at ordinary times block out the daytime. Walking in the gallery, I found it very deep. When the incense was burned out, the shadow of the sun moved to the curtain foil, only to find that dusk was approaching. I love plum blossoms, and my Jiang Mei is growing up. Why should I go upstairs to enjoy the romantic scenery and waste my time? No one came to talk to me. Now I am alone in such a lonely environment, just like He Xun was swimming in Yangzhou.
The color of plum blossoms is very beautiful. Although it is not as afraid of frost and snow as other flowers, it is delicate and difficult to withstand the devastation of cold wind and rain. Who played the flute of "Plum Blossom Falling" and stirred up my sadness? Don't resent the disappearance of Dimfragrance and falling flowers like snow, but believe that the trace of plum blossom is hard to find, but its affection lasts forever. It's hard for me to tell my family background. I want to have a wonderful evening. The faint moonlight casts a beautiful shadow of plum branches, from which I can also see the beauty and romance of plum blossoms.

Make an appreciative comment
This is one of Li Qingzhao's Yongmei Ci poems, which was later added as "Can Mei" to write personal feelings through the elegance of plum blossoms; It can be called a masterpiece of chanting things.
The beginning of a word seems to have nothing to do with its title, but it depicts a special lyrical environment. The predecessor called this writing "the first set is far away." The author first wrote about the loneliness and boredom of her residence: "The small pavilion hides spring, the window is locked for the day, and the painting hall is infinitely deep." A "kiosk" is a small boudoir, a woman's inner bedroom, and a "idle window" means that it is quiet inside and outside. "Hidden" and "locked" have different meanings. Beautiful spring scenery and a vibrant day are just locked in this narrow and quiet circle. During the Tang and Song Dynasties, the inner bedrooms of wealthy families were often connected by halls. The pavilion is located in the picture gallery. The lock is hidden in the spring, implying that you can't feel it here, so the painting hall is particularly deep. "Deep" is an extreme expression of its narrow and quiet hall. The author is used to this environment and seems to be satisfied with its profundity. In ancient times, people who loved elegance loved to burn incense. Seal incense is a kind of high-grade coil incense in the middle ages. Its burning out means that the whole day has passed, and the shadow of the sun moving on the curtain foil means that dusk is coming. It can be inferred from the situation described in "Small Pavilion, Idle Window, Painting Hall, Sealing Incense and Curtains" that the lyric heroine is a woman living in the upper class, rich and carefree, but the extremely lonely environment also reveals the unfortunate news of her life. "Hand-planted Jiang Mei is getting better" is a turning point in the meaning of this word, and it began to chant things. When dusk came, the heroine suddenly felt a sense of relief when she saw Jiang Mei planting outdoors alone. Its "getting better" can comfort tree growers; Appreciating "hand-planted Jiang Mei" will have many past associations, so there is no need to go upstairs to enjoy the romantic scenery. In addition to the special feelings for plum blossoms, it seems that the mood is also casual and exhausted, and the scenery that should be appreciated has lost interest.
At the end of the poem, the appreciation of plum blossoms was linked with the infatuation of He Xun, a scholar in the Southern Dynasties, which made the emotional development of the poem transition to the way of expressing emotion by borrowing things and gradually entered the author's theme. He Xun (about 480-520) was a writer in the Liang Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties. His poems are meaningful and beautiful, and are deeply appreciated by Tang and Song poets Du Fu and Huang Tingjian. Liang (Liang Wudi year number, 502-5 19) once joined the army and kept discipline for Jianshui Caohang, and there is a famous piece "Yangzhou Plum Blossom" (also known as "Singing Early Plums"). This poem, The Supplement to Heshui in the Qing Dynasty, says: "Xun was the king of Jian 'an, Cao Shui, and the king stabbed Yangzhou. Thank Xun's family has a plum flower that sings and writes poems every day. After living in Los Angeles, I will ask him to take up his post and go to Yangzhou to spend Fang Shengkai. I am embarrassed about flowers and can't go all day. "He Xun's infatuation with plum blossoms is caused by his attachment to loneliness and depression. In Du Fu's poems, "Dongting officials promote poetry, why Yangzhou?" "("See them off with Pei Di at Zhoushudong Pavilion every morning "). Zhao Qing used He Xun's works and Du Fu's poems. According to her understanding, He Xun is lonely in Yangzhou. In a lonely environment, she has some feelings about the life experiences of Meihua and He Xun.
Poets are good at getting rid of the habit of sticking to the material state and perfunctory things, but their works are full of rich emotions, and they express deep sympathy for the fate of Can Mei in connection with their personal life experiences. "I don't know how to win" is her praise for plum blossom as a whole. "Rhyme" is charm and verve, and it is a combination of formal beauty and character beauty. Plum blossoms deserve to be called "rhyme wins". After the poet affirmed this, he stopped talking about it and wrote about its misfortune. He found that it has different styles and tastes after zero. "Borrowing" and "kneading" are also intertextual, meaning trampling and destroying. Although plum is not afraid of cold, frost and snow, it is a flower after all, and it also has the delicate characteristics of flowers, so it is difficult to resist the trampling and destruction of wind and rain. This is the fate of flowers. Due to the fate of plum blossom, the author has produced various associative words with tortuous meanings. It is an empty way to associate Plum Blossom Fall with the ancient song Plum Blossom Fall, which shows that Plum Blossom Fall has aroused the author's personal sentimental feelings and caused a group of "deep worries" that are difficult to solve. However, the author tries to comfort himself that his feelings have changed. The fragrance of plum blossoms is gone, and the flowers fall like snow, indicating that they have withered, withered, and wealth no longer exists. This should make people hate spring, and hate the ruthlessness of spring. But the poet still thinks "don't hate" and "be sure to trust the channel and sweep away the traces." "Sweep" means that the trace is swept away and it is difficult to find. "It's hard to say, the moon is bright at night, and the shadow is still romantic" means to supplement "love". The Unexplained Place is a summary of the complex emotions expressed by Xia Kun, which seems to have a pun on the author's life experience. Imagine a beautiful night, the faint moonlight, casting the shadow of beautiful plum branches. From this pose, I can also see Mei's handsome and romantic style, which should be a little affection left after being swept away. Maybe it will reopen next year, bringing the message of spring. "The moon is bright at night, but it is still romantic" highlights the elegance and interest of plum blossom, which makes the thought of the whole poem reach a new height. It praises a kind of arrogant spiritual character that is still full of confidence in human survival after suffering.
As for the writing time of this poem, due to the lack of necessary clues, it is impossible to make a detailed textual research. However, judging from the lonely and lonely environment and dying sad mood described in the poem, it should be a work after Qingzhao's family change. This change makes Qingzhao's ci have a sad mood. Therefore, it is not difficult to find that the author's poems about Can Mei contain a sense of life experience by borrowing things, and their subjective expression is very strong, reaching the level of harmonious artistic conception and blending scenes, so it is difficult to distinguish whether this is the author's self-portrayal or chanting things. This is the same as Zhao Qing's works that express the pain of parting. The use of words is light and sharp, the meaning of words is profound and tortuous, the expression is delicate, the tone is deep and harmonious, and it is full of feminine beauty, which can best reflect its basic artistic characteristics. This poem "Man Ting Square" is not only a masterpiece of Ci, but also a masterpiece of Song people's poems about objects.
Creation background
This word has always been regarded as Li Qingzhao's early works. Liu Yu's Complete Works of Li Qingzhao thinks that this word should be written before Zhao Qingzhao's south crossing. According to Chen Zumei's Concise Chronology of Li Qingzhao, Man Fang Ting is the work of 1 104 (Song Huizong Chongning for three years). However, some scholars believe that this word is Li Qingzhao's later works. For example, Xie thinks it should be written after the author's family changes.
