Pear blossoms can remove black acne; Decocting pear leaves can cure children's wind-cold hernia, and bark can eliminate symptoms such as qi stagnation and cough.
"Flower World" in Tang Poetry —— Pear Flower
Pear blossoms in Tang poetry, regardless of location, season, people and environment. Whether it is the deep palace courtyard or the sand sea beyond the Great Wall; Whether it is late spring or August in Hutian; Whether it's a dying beauty or a wandering wanderer, pear blossoms are in full bloom anytime and anywhere, with the splendor of white as snow, the desolation of falling with the wind and breaking everywhere, and the nobleness of the bright moon bathing in the stream ... These are colorful and interesting, forming an exotic and colorful art world.
The most interesting thing written by Lihua is Snow White Farewell to Wu Gui, written by a great poet in the Tang Dynasty. The first four sentences are as follows: "The north wind swept the ground and the grass cut off in the north, and the eight In the snow crossed the Tatar sky. Just like the spring wind, it blows at night and blows open the petals of 10 thousand pear trees. " On a Hu-day in August, the mainland is scorching hot and unbearable. However, it is surprising that it is windy and snowy in Hudi. In Alakazam in August, it was covered with snow and ice, white and biting cold, but the poet had a clever plan to set a metaphor, saying that pear blossoms were in full bloom, lively and colorful, and there was no sense of sadness, only warmth and enthusiasm, which was the second wonder; "Thousand Trees" is an exaggeration, reading daydreams, feeling the flowers, fragrance, excitement and surprise, which are three unique skills; The bleak August Hu day is so warm and warm, and the business is full. Cen Shen is really a little energetic. What a wonderful rejuvenation! Winter snow and pear blossoms are metaphors, but Du Mu's drinking in the early winter night conveys a completely different artistic conception. "Huaiyang disease is even, and the guest sleeve invades the frost candle plate. There is a pile of snow under the pear flower. Who will lean on the railing next year? " One or two words: The poet was demoted to an official position and lived in a foreign country, lonely and depressed. When you are sick and depressed, you can only drown your sorrows and comfort yourself. When the weather is cold, the poet drinks candles alone and hangs a shadow to hurt himself. He was angry without complaining, and he felt more lonely and sad. Three, four, two sentences change the scenery and send the money far away. The poet stopped drinking when he couldn't get over his worries. Standing on the railing, he saw the north wind blowing and snowflakes coming in succession, and the snow under the stage was like clusters of pear blossoms. The poet, who was originally lonely and miserable because of drinking candlelight alone, now the boundless night snow has deepened his understanding of the boundless experience of life, and he can't help thinking that he doesn't know where he is at this time next year! The question at the end reflects the poet's hardship of wandering, his yearning for his hometown, his indignation at his unexpected career and his hidden pain at his hard work. The vast pear blossoms are like snow, and the vast snow is like flowers, which renders the poet's melancholy and bitterness.
Liu's "Spring Complaint" describes the loneliness of ladies-in-waiting, and uses pear flowers to compare the sadness of beauty dying and youth no longer. "At dusk, nobody saw the tears in the golden room. Lonely and empty, spring comes late, and pear blossoms are not full. " The whole poem describes the environment, from the inside out, from near to far, and contrasts layer by layer, highlighting the tragic fate and inner desolation of the heroine. Write sunset and dusk to make the dusk doubly dark; I wrote the Spring Festival Evening, and I wrote pear blossoms all over the floor, which made the spring scenery sweep the floor. It is written that the golden house is empty, the courtyard is empty and the door is hidden, which makes the tragic situation of the heroine in the poem helpless and isolated to the maximum extent. Writing pear blossoms scattered all over the place, set off by the beauty's withering and crying, triggers readers' similar associations with the sad life experience and the dark death of youth. Liu is really subtle! This poem is full of pear blossoms, which belongs to Wang Fuzhi's so-called brushwork of "lining sadness with sad scenery" in Tang poetry, and also has the brushwork of "lining sadness with happy scenery" in writing pear blossoms. Wu Ming's miscellaneous poems contrast the elegance of the imaginary hometown of pear blossoms with the nobleness of wandering in a foreign land, and they have a hard time returning home. The whole poem is written like this: "Although Laoshan is not closed, I will go to Chang 'an in spring. A pear tree and a bright moon, I wonder who it belongs to tonight. "One or two sentences show that the poet is stranded in Chang 'an and it is difficult to return to his hometown; Imagine the scenery of the old mountain in the old garden and express homesickness. A pear tree, bathed in the bright moonlight and listening to the gurgling stream, is like a slim fairy, smiling and amiable. The pear flowers in my hometown are beautiful, noble, elegant and charming, but for the poets who are wandering abroad, isn't it just "a single flower with a cloud as the center"? "I don't know who belongs to tonight" is so sad and bitter! The more beautiful the pear blossoms on the Yuexi River, the more they can reflect the pain and anxiety of travelers who are not going home.
A pear tree, a romantic moon, every inn, every courtyard, every stream and every spring breeze here have a story and a heart, which is quietly solidified in the artistic conception of Tang poetry. A thousand years have passed, and another thousand years have passed. It silently waits for your arrival, waiting for you to listen quietly and savor it. ...
