Ruan Ji is the representative of "the beginning sound". His 82 poems "Yong Huai" are very famous lyrics. Some of these poems reflect the poet's infinite loneliness, pain and anger under the cover of all kinds of drunkenness and madness in a sinister political environment. Some poems show the poet's fear of political risks and hope to avoid the world. Some poems satirize the present by borrowing from the past, pinning their criticism or feelings on current politics, and showing the poet's concern for state affairs; There are also some poems that mock the affectation and hypocrisy of etiquette people. Generally speaking, Ruan Ji's poem "Yong Huai" takes "worrying but being sad alone" as the main tone, which has a strong lyrical color. In art, metaphor, sustenance, symbolism and other techniques are often used, forming a poetic style of "grief, indignation and sadness, obscurity and twists and turns".
This is the first of Ruan Ji's 82 five-character Huaihe poems. Poetry expresses the poet's complex emotions such as anger, sadness, loneliness and anxiety. However, despite the poet's sigh of "sorrow alone", he never directly broke the "sorrow", but "directly quoted the situation to show people", and contained his own inner feelings in the image description. Leng Yue's cool breeze, lonely wilderness and sleepless nights have turned invisible "troubles" into intuitive images, as if they were in front of people's eyes and ears. Readers can feel the poet's lonely and angry mood from the "situational tone" shown in the poem. But that kind of "worry" is just an emotion, an experience and a feeling. People can appreciate the loneliness and bitterness contained in it, but it is difficult to grasp its specific content. The remarkable feature of this poem is that "words are heard in the sky, and feelings are sent outside the eight famine".
In fact, if we can thoroughly understand Ruan Ji, this poem is not difficult to understand. Ruan Ji "originally had the ambition to help the world and belonged to Wei and Jin Dynasties. There are many reasons in the world, and few celebrities have all the people. The reason is that they are isolated from the world, so drinking is common (Biography of Ruan Ji in the Book of Jin). Just as he was drunk for 60 days and made Wendi propose to Emperor Wu, and finally stopped talking (ditto), "binge drinking" was just a means for him to escape from reality, but his inner pain could not be removed. The description of "driving alone, not relying on the road, relying on the track and crying" in the history books is the profound expression of his painful heart. So this poem, as long as you look at his "loneliness" and "independence", it is not difficult to "winding path leads to a secluded place".
At the beginning of this poem, the poet introduced the reader to a lonely and desolate night scene: "If you can't sleep at night, you sit up and play the piano", while the poet who "drinks heavily is a common thing" finds it difficult to sleep when all living beings are dreaming. He put on his clothes, sat up and played the strings to express his feelings. This is learned from the real scene. However, we might as well regard this "night" as the night of the times. In this long night, "everyone is drunk and I wake up alone", the great loner, played an epoch-making poem. "The British wind cuts Yun Ni and makes a strange sound" ("Sixty-one") Oh! These two poems are actually translated from Wang Jie's poem Seven Wounded Poems: "You can't sleep alone at night, but take clothes and play the piano."
Three or four sentences further describe this sleepless night. A Qing man Wu Qi said: "The word sword comes from the word thin ... there is only a thin curtain in the hall. ..... If the curtains in class are thin, you can miss the moonlight. Because of this, the wind seeped in and blew me up "("Conclusion of Selected Poems of the Six Dynasties "). Furthermore, we can also feel the poet's theme from the superficial meaning of this painting. The poet's description of the bright moon and the cool breeze set off his nobility. Writing "thin curtain" and "blowing my chest" is really chilling. Although this is not the romantic realm of Qu Zi's "going to Kunlun to eat jade", the spirit of being unique, dangerous and not being understood by the secular is the same.
In five or six sentences, the poet focuses on the description from the perspective of vision and feeling. Five or six sentences not only further increase the images of "lonely rainbow" and "flying bird", but also add the sound of "horn" and "voice" to the picture. This wailing "lonely rainbow" and "flying bird" are not only the poet's eyes, the scene in front of him, but also the symbol of the poet's self. It flies alone in the long night, singing sad songs. "Northland Forest" refers to the Book of Songs, and refers to the morning breeze, which makes the northland forest overcast. If you don't see a gentleman, you will worry about Qin Qin "(Qin Feng Morning Wind), which implies the meaning of missing and caring. "Northland Forest" and "Outfield" together further constitute a desolate and cold realm.
At the end of the two sentences, "What were you thinking when you were wandering? You are only sad when you are worried. " The poet's brushwork reverts from the nature of the object to the subjective self, just like Zhuang Zhoumeng's feeling about butterflies. His heart is full of emotion, but there is nowhere to tell. He may think a lot: "How generous a strong man is, and he is determined to conquer the Eight Wastes" ("Poets will never be comforted, only infinite worries, lonely wandering and eternal sorrow.
Looking at the whole poem, it seems to be "repeated chaos, unprovoked" (in) and "like a clear cloud coming out of a hole, the volume is uncertain" (in Wang Fuzhi's words), but if we grasp the poet's theme of "sadness in the heart", we can understand this "masterpiece". It is not easy for Zhong Rong to evaluate Ruan Ji's poems in Poems.
