Qiu Deng sent Zhang Wuyi to Lanshan, and Zhang Zirong to Xianshan on September 9th. On the North Peak among the white clouds, you found your comfort zone. Try to climb the other side of the mountain, the quiet evening may seem a little sad, geese flying high in my heart, if the weather in autumn is not so refreshing. Tourists come to the village on the mountain, walk across the beach, sit at the ferry and have a rest. There are trees on the horizon like a row of grass and rivers like a moon. I hope you will pick me up, bring a basket of wine and get drunk on the Double Ninth Festival.
Meng Haoran was a famous pastoral poet in Tang Dynasty. Meng Haoran chose to retire after experiencing the hardships of his career.

In Meng Haoran's poems, the landscape image is integrated with his own thoughts and feelings, reaching an unprecedented height.
Poetry achievements:
In Meng Haoran's view, the images in landscape poems are no longer descriptions of the original landscapes, nor are they simply adding their own emotions, but they adopt an expression technique, combining the description of landscape images with the display of their own thoughts and feelings.
Therefore, the description of images in his landscape poems has reached an unprecedented height, and the images in his landscape poems have been promoted to the advanced form of artistic images, that is, "images". It can be said that before Meng Haoran, no poet's landscape poems could touch the author's personality so deeply.
Poetry achievement
Wang Wei and Meng Haoran, the first person of the pastoral school in the prosperous Tang Dynasty and the pioneer of "Xiangxing" creation, are also called the pastoral school. In order to highlight their outstanding role in the pastoral school, later generations are also called the "Wang Meng Poetry School". This school is as long as the poems of Tao Yuanming and Schell (Xie Lingyun and Xie Tiao), with pastoral scenery and secluded life as the main theme, and its style dilutes nature.
Meng Haoran's poems got rid of the narrow realm of chanting things in the early Tang Dynasty, expressed more personal hugs, brought fresh breath to Kaiyuan poetry circle, and won people's admiration at that time. Meng Haoran was the first poet who wrote landscape poems in the Tang Dynasty and the forerunner of Wang Wei. His travels are vividly described, and Dongting Lake's letter to Premier Zhang is magnificent.
Meng Haoran's life experience is relatively simple, and the theme of poetry creation is relatively simple. Meng's poems are mostly five-character short stories, mostly pastoral poems and secluded poems, and most of them are in the mood of serving immortals. Although it is not without cynicism, it is more of a poet's self-expression.
