Perhaps some readers still don't know that China has an anti-seven-step poem, which is the work of Mr. Guo Moruo, a great writer. The poem says, "Boil beans and burn them, and the beans will turn to ashes. Those who are ripe are precious on the dining table and fertile in the ashes field. If they are not born from the same root, why are they willing to destroy themselves? "
Lao Guo disagreed with Cao Zhi. He thinks that "beans are made by self-sacrifice (burning to ashes)" is not worth taking. However, Lao Guo revealed the respective functions of "bean" and "bean" in his poems, and educated people to cooperate with each other and be brave in dedication.
As we all know, the seven-step poem was written by Cao Zhi, a famous writer in the Three Kingdoms period. This poem is written like this:
Boiled beans make soup, fermented beans are juice. Douchi is cooked in the kettle, and beans weep in the kettle. They are all born from the same root, so there is no need to fry each other. However, Guo Moruo, a great writer, re-examined them from the perspective of "the result of boiling beans" and wrote "anti-seven-step poems", which gave people a refreshing feeling. Boil beans, burn beans and cook beans. From the comparison of the two poems, it is not difficult to see that a ferocious "injurer" has become a "devotee" who makes others sacrifice themselves, thus subtly expressing the injustice to Cao Pi. Lao Guo is indeed a writer with independent thinking and innovative spirit, which is admirable and worth learning from later generations.

According to legend, Cao Pi, the brother of Cao Zhi, a famous writer in the Three Kingdoms period, inherited the throne of Cao Cao, who was hungry for food. He was jealous of Cao Zhi's talent and fame, and was afraid that Cao Zhi would seize his throne, so he set a trap. He asked Cao Zhi to write a seven-step poem with the word "brother" in it, or he would be killed for disobedience. Cao Zhi's wit is extraordinary, and he made this poem in seven steps. This poem is based on
This poem is simple and easy to understand, and the metaphor is appropriate, so it has been circulated for a long time. People also know that Cao Zhi is witty and appreciates and sympathizes with him. As for Cao Pi, people accused him of being narrow-minded, virtuous and jealous. This cycle has been going on for thousands of years.
Anti-seven-step poem
Boil beans and burn beans. The boiled beans are gray. The ripe ones will be treasured, and the gray ones will be used as fertilizer in the field. If you are not born from the same root, why are you willing to destroy yourself?
Guo Moruo questioned this in "On Cao Zhi", one of his historical tasks. He thinks that this poem was written by Cao Zhi and lacks authenticity. At the end of the article, I wrote an anti-seven-step poem In this poem, Lao Guo re-examines the phenomenon of "boiling beans and burning beans" from the perspective of the results of boiling beans. In order to make beans delicious at the party,
