Thousands of trees are blooming and stars are everywhere in the east night. BMW carved cars are full of incense. Phoenix flute moves, jade pot turns, fish dragon dances all night.
Moths, snow, willows, gold thread, laughter and incense are all gone. Look for him in the crowd. Suddenly looking back, the man was there, dimly lit.

Lanterns dot the streets, like thousands of trees and flowers blown away by the spring breeze, and fireworks are like stars and rain blown off by the spring breeze. Gorgeous carriages drove across the road with fragrance. Melodious music is flying, bright moonlight is flowing, and lanterns are flying all night.
The girls dressed up beautifully, smelled the fragrance and walked past talking and laughing. Looking for everything in the lively scene, I turned around inadvertently, but I saw the person in my heart in a sparsely lit place.

Xin Qiji (1140-1207) was born in Licheng (now Jinan, Shandong) in the Southern Song Dynasty. Born in Shaoxing on May 11th, ten years ago, Shandong was occupied by Jin Bing. Joined the anti-Jin army at the age of 21. At the age of 22, he led the 50-year-old Qing Qi to surprise attack the Golden Camp and 50,000 troops. He captured and beheaded the traitor Zhang Anguo alive and crossed the border to the Song Dynasty.
Xin Qiji, like Yue Fei, is a talented person who can run the country and keep the country safe. Throughout his life, he insisted on fighting the nomads from the Jin Dynasty and recovering lost ground. He went to ten papers and nine discussions about Meiqin, but none of them were adopted and implemented, which was hit by the pacifists.
Xin Qiji just defected from the north to the Southern Song Dynasty and wrote this word in the capital Lin 'an. At that time, half the country was under the iron hoof of nomadic people, but the court didn't want to recover the rivers and mountains, just wanted to steal peace and enjoy itself. As Lin Sheng, a poet in the Southern Song Dynasty, said, "When will the West Lake stop singing and dancing? Warm wind makes tourists drunk and makes Hangzhou Bianzhou. "
Xin Qiji's yearning for the north is vast and heroic, and he has never forgotten that he is a Shandong native and a northerner. "I have been to Wu Gou, and I have photographed railings everywhere. No one will attend. "
Xin Qiji refused to go along with the peace faction. After crossing the south, he was idle for almost 30 years. He has a strong desire to unify the motherland and make contributions, and his heart is always restless: "Sometimes it is difficult to remember, and people who break the railing don't know."
After the age of 60, "in exchange for planting trees in the East", as Lu You said, "Yuan knows that nature has different hearts, so it is as old as a hero." However, Xin Qiji's heart is uneven. Xin Qiji has an ideal and persistence, but his ambition has not been continued throughout his life. "Poor things happen in vain", "No one can call but cry for the hero."
Chen Tingzhuo's White Jade Zhai Thorn: "Jiaxuan has the possibility of swallowing eight famines, and the opportunity cannot come. Regularity can be Guo, Li, Yue and Han, while change can be Huan Wen. Therefore, the words are extremely heroic and the meaning is extremely sad. "
Xin Qiji is a young hero in the prime of life, and a veteran who is "800 Li under his command, 50 strings beyond the Great Wall, and goes to the battlefield in autumn". He is obsessed with the Central Plains and his hometown: "How many pedestrians are crying in the middle of the Yugur Taihe River?" I have been looking forward to returning to the battlefield all my life, but the opportunity "has never arrived, and the rain is lingering."
Xin Qiji's tragic, of course, is not his personal failure, but the inability of the Southern Song Dynasty to confront the powerful military forces in the north. Yue Fei was angry because he had the conditions to explore the north, but he didn't.
Going south is a hero's grief and indignation, and Xin Qiji has always had the will to explore the north. The Northern Expedition is also called "returning home". This is the complex of people in the Southern Song Dynasty, which people in the Northern Song Dynasty did not have. Zong Ze shouted "cross the river", "cross the river" and "cross the river" before he died. Lu You "showed it to his son" before he died.
On the 10th day of September in the third year of Jubilee (1207), Xin Qiji shouted, "Kill the thief! Kill a thief! " He died of grief and anger at the age of 68.

The creation time of this word is unknown, but according to the Preface of Jiaxuan compiled by his disciples, it is known that it was created in the fourteenth year of Xichun (1 187).
The "Jade Case" was named after Zhang Heng's "Four Sorrow Poems" in the Eastern Han Dynasty: "Beauty gave me a splendid section, why should I report the jade case?"
Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first month is an important festival. Xuanhe's legacy is that "people in the capital are like snow mud". "Old Wulin Stories" says: "All women carry pearls." Li Qingzhao said, "Remember to focus on three to five".
The first sentence was written by Cen Can, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, "If the spring breeze comes at night, ten thousand pears will blow away". After an easterly wind in the spring night, all the flowers bloomed the next day. What a magical force of nature, this huge energy is also contained in important festivals on earth.
"Moth", "snow willow" and "golden thread" are all jewelry of ancient women. Replacing the whole with a part refers to a woman who wears makeup.
"Laughing at the fragrance and killing the jade" is a metaphor for many beautiful women. As the Book of Songs says, "There are women like clouds, I think of them". There are women's things in it. Cao Xueqin is actually feminine, and Lin Daiyu is more of Cao Xueqin's shadow. Xin Qiji also has a feminine side.
Xin Qiji searched for him in the crowd for thousands of Baidu, but he couldn't find it. This kind of emotion is like "can't get it, toss and turn"; Also like "Looking Up and Down" in "Cockroach"; Another example is Qu Yuan's "It's a long way to go in Xiu Yuan, and I will go up and down to find it".
When Mu Ran looked back, he found that the Iraqis were in a dimly lit place, and all their expectations were not expressed. The lively scene of the Lantern Festival lights all night sets off a beautiful image that is different from ordinary people and willing to be lonely. This is the object pursued by Xin Qiji and the embodiment of his ideal personality of refusing to go along with the peace faction.
This kind of beauty is a kind of love poem that can be met but not sought; Men's yearning for beautiful women; It can also be understood as the author's yearning for good things; At the same time, combined with Xin Qiji's life, it can be understood as a self-figurative poem; It can be understood as a kind of life sentiment poem.
The Man in the Dark Light is a portrayal of Xin Qiji himself. As Liang Qichao said: "Self-pity is lonely, and those who are sad have different arms." To write "The Man" is to write about yourself.

In the history of Ci, Xin Qiji and Su Shi are both called "Su Xin", and * * * is a representative writer of the bold school. There are more than 620 Xin Ci poems that have been circulated so far, and they are the richest poets in the Song Dynasty.
There is a myth in the west that Sisyphus pushed the stone up the mountain, and the stone rolled down, and then pushed the stone up the mountain again and again. The meaning and value of life may not lie in the completion of a goal, but in this process and cycle. The meaning of life may be the process of "looking for him in the crowd".
The sixth volume of Part C of Luo Songda Jing's He Lin Yu Lu contains someone's book "Seeking Spring": "Looking for spring all day long, not seeing spring, straw sandals break through the clouds. When I came back, I smiled and smelled plum blossoms. Spring is already in the branches. "
It is not easy to express one's pursuit of ideal image by various spiritual practices such as searching for spring every day and breaking shoes, and to find a way to find spring. Once you have an epiphany, you can't help smiling when you see your true colors.
This philosophy, temporality and spatiality of some of Ni's enlightenment poems are unlimited, constantly new and ubiquitous. Poetry is the same as heaven and earth.
Just like spring is within reach, people's consciousness is between standing, sitting, dressing and eating. Once enlightened, it is impossible to find a place to get it, and it can be obtained without effort. Spring is actually in everyone's heart. As long as we look inward, we can see the meaning, divinity, Buddha nature and truth of spring.
Confucius said, "I want benevolence, and I am benevolent." What you are looking for is not far away, sometimes it is around you, just hazy and unreal. This is the feeling of life. "Thousands of people are looking for him" and "the branches are very spring".
According to Confucianism, Confucius said, "Man is not far from the Tao." Mencius said, "The Tao is near you. Seek all directions." Colorful is always spring, and everything is inseparable from "reason". Someone came back to laugh at the plum blossom and said "Tao" was around.
Mencius believed that "everyone can think of Yao and Shun". Zen also believes that truth, such as Buddha's nature, is everywhere, all beings are equal, all have Buddha's nature, point to nature, realize Tao, and don't leave your own nature to find another one. Qianshan will eventually return to himself.
Zen advocates heart-to-heart communication. At the beginning, Sakyamuni realized the Tao under the bodhi tree and passed it down from generation to generation with one heart, without seeking. Teachers have this heart, and so do students. They will neither come nor go, nor increase or decrease.
In Xin Qiji's era, Neo-Confucianism was very popular, and Neo-Confucianism absorbed Buddhism, especially Zen. Zhu and Xin Qiji at the same time. Xin Qiji held a funeral for Zhu and shocked the ruling and opposition parties. Song ci often seems pessimistic, but in fact it is optimistic. It was great in the Song Dynasty. There is the power of neo-Confucianism behind it. Integrate Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism and Zen.
Zhu's "Spring Day": "Winning the day to find the fragrance of the water and the shore, the vast scene is new for a while. When you are free, you will know that the east wind is always spring. " In spring, people's hearts are hazy with longing, which is all longing and hope for life. Spiritual trembling, as in the Bible.
The purpose of life is to seek in this life, and the meaning of life is to obtain in this life.
"Looking for him in the crowd" means waiting, "I hope it doesn't come in the end, misty rain lingers", and "I'm in Qian Fan", "I can't look at Jun Jun all day" and "I have no choice but to spend it".
This word also expresses a realm of life, an understanding that transcends time and space in life and will not be erased or forgotten because of different years, opportunities and environments.
