Yu Meiren was written before Li Yu was poisoned. It was the third year (978) of the peaceful rejuvenation of the country by Emperor Taizong of the Northern Song Dynasty, and Li Yu returned to the Song Dynasty for nearly three years. In the eighth year of Song Taizu Kaibao (975), Song Jun attacked Jinling, the capital of Nantang, Li Yufeng surrendered and Nantang perished.
Three years later, that is, three years of peaceful rejuvenation, Xu Xuan was ordered by Song Taizong to visit Li Yu, and Li Yu sighed at Xu Xuan: "I regret killing Pan You and Li Ping by mistake!" It is probably in this state of mind that Li Yu wrote the word "Yu Meiren".
Extended data:
Li Yu (937-978) was the queen of Southern Tang Dynasty. Last name is Jia. The word is heavy, Zhong Yin. Excavate's sixth son. In 96 1-975, the country was defeated by the song dynasty. Later he was poisoned by Song Taizong. Although Li Yu is politically incompetent, his artistic talent is extraordinary. Gong's calligraphy is good at painting, his melody is refined, and his poems have certain attainments, especially Ci, which is known as the "Emperor of Ci through the ages" and has a great influence on later generations. His ci poems are mainly included in two major ci poems in the Southern Tang Dynasty. There are 38 confirmed words and 6 poems/kloc-0.
"When is the spring flower and autumn moon?" It is a sentence written by Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, on the eve of being poisoned. This is a word of despair. This is a sad song of life. By comparing the sharp contradiction between the eternity of nature and the impermanence of life, the author expresses the sorrow of life failure after the national subjugation.
The language of the whole poem is clear, concise, beautiful and fresh, with questions and answers, from the question of heaven and man to the question of self. Through the intense tone and tortuous artistic structure in sadness, the author's melancholy runs through and forms a refreshing aesthetic effect.
The word Li Yu has caused widespread popularity to a great extent because the conclusion sentence uses infectious and symbolic metaphors, which makes melancholy thoughts vivid and abstract: the author has not clearly written the true connotation of his melancholy thoughts-he misses the hedonic life in the past, but only shows its external form-"like an eastward flowing river.
In this way, people can easily get some kind of spiritual resonance from it and use it to express their similar feelings. Because people's worries have different connotations, they can all have the external form of "just like a river flowing eastward". Because "image is often greater than thought", the word Li has a wide sound and is passed down through the ages.
