The most famous verses of Wang Zhaojun's poems are as follows:
The first poem, "Ode to Ancient Relics Part Three": The mountains and valleys go to Jingmen, and the village of Mingfei Shangyou grows. Once we go to Zitai and Shuo Desert, we will only leave the green tomb facing the dusk. Draw a picture to understand the spring breeze, and wear a ring in the sky to return to the soul of the night moon. For thousands of years, the pipa has been playing nonsense, and there is clear resentment in the music.
The author of this poem is Du Fu, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. Du Fu's poetry has won numerous praises for its "melancholy and frustrated" style. In a sense, Du Fu is greater than Li Bai. Because most of Li Bai's poems are geniuses, unconstrained and unimaginable, and cannot be imitated. However, Du Fu's painstaking efforts in carving words and rhythms can be imitated and learned by later generations. Therefore, later poets often respect Du Fu more. Of course, most people still think Li Bai is more powerful.
Song 2, "Picking Flowers in Khotan": A man picking flowers in Khotan said that the flowers are similar. Once Ming Fei entered Hu west, many beauties in Hu died of shame. I know that there are many famous Shu in Han Dynasty, but there are no comparable flowers in Hu. Paintings can make the ugly look beautiful, and they will fall into the deep palace without salt. Since ancient times, I have been jealous of my eyebrows and my white teeth are buried in the sand.
The author of this poem is Li Bai, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. Although Li Bai is a man, he can best understand the heart of a woman. There are many excellent poems in his poems that describe the grievances between friends, and this poem "Picking Flowers in Khotan" describes Wang Zhaojun's overwhelming power. The sentence "The beauties in Hu Zhong are so embarrassed to death" may seem a bit like vernacular at first glance, but if you taste it carefully, it feels very natural and appropriate.
