He knew bitter gourd was not sweet, and when Crown's ambition could not be realized, he decided to retire. This is a reason to let go of the goal that can't be achieved now, not to give up your dream. Xu Hun is well versed in the flexibility and broadmindedness of "endless" water, and follows the "principle" of water. It is a truth to say what you like. Because of Xu Hun love the water's character, he also has the quality of water, so he often mentioned water in his poems.
In addition, we know that Xu Hun is a native of Danyang, Runzhou, and the culture of water towns in the south of the Yangtze River gave birth to him, which is the emotional basis of his wet poems, and thus formed the moist emotional atmosphere of water towns and villages in his poems. His tenderness makes his poems not only use the word "water" extensively, but also contain moist words and images, such as rain and dew, frost flowers, waves, waves, tides in the evening and so on. The emotional artistic conception shown in Ding Mao's collection has no very strong love and hate, joy and hate, and there is no groan of pain and sorrow. He didn't look at and explore his poverty, embarrassment and idleness as deeply as other poets in the Tang Dynasty, but "carved the word of poverty into his works" [5] to express his helplessness. He is indifferent, flowing freely like water, gentle and honest, and the impression of "water" shows his character well.
Xu Hun said that "I was born in a semi-foreign land" ("Leaving Donglan at Night") and "I have been a stranger in this life" ("Suzhou Huqiu Temple"). For many years, the poet sought a job, kept his official position several times, traveled abroad, and stayed in a foreign country all the year round, which led to homesickness. Because the poet's hometown is near the water, his travels and places are mostly water towns and Zeguo, and he is often in love with water, or water. For example, my hometown is a swallow in late spring outside Qian Fan, and Chu water flows from the west to the sky, which makes me feel sad when I leave Luo Zhong's friends in the autumn in suburban gardens. The words "outside Qian Fan" and "sky flows" describe the distance of my hometown with the impression of water and express my yearning for my hometown.
To sum up, the water image in Xu Hun's poems is caused by many factors, which can't be simply understood as "1000 wet poems" because there are many water images in the poems. Xu Hun's personality, love and style should also be explored and understood. Xu Hun's "Thousands of Wet Poems" is so wet that it has personality and emotional appeal.
