Even what anyone can see is polished by the poet, and all of a sudden it becomes elegant. For example, Li Qiao's "Wind" in the Tang Dynasty, in just 20 words, described the most common wind in nature as majestic and extremely warm, skillfully and powerfully blowing a thousand waves, and also blowing open February flowers. Skills can blow off three fallen leaves, or blow bamboo poles in a bamboo forest.
Joe, three autumn leaves can fall and bloom in February. Scraping the river surface can set off several huge waves in thousands of feet, and blowing bamboo can make tens of thousands of poles tilt.
This poem is about the wind. The explanation is that autumn wind can blow off leaves, and February wind can blow off safflower. If it blows into the river, it can stir up a thousand waves. If it blows into the bamboo forest, the straight bamboo pole will become inclined immediately.
The poet's technique is very clever. The wind in the first sentence is gentle and light, giving people a warm feeling. As soon as the topic changed, we came to the second sentence, crossing the river into the bamboo pole. It immediately made people feel that strong winds swept across the river and set off layers of waves. Reading is like being in front of stormy waves, and the sense of surprise is self-evident.
The word "ten thousand poles slanting bamboo" not only describes the power of the wind, but also praises the indomitable character of bamboo. For literati, Mei Lan and Zhu Ju are all excellent qualities they yearn for, among which bamboo stands for integrity, and upright people will be praised by others. For example, in this poem, bamboo doesn't bend even in the face of strong wind, but leans. And it has always been consistent and the picture is beautiful.
Of course, people who write poems may not have integrity like bamboo. The author of this poem, Li Qiao, has the same surname as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but he is Zhao Jun Li and the emperor is Longxi Li. So it doesn't match the royal family. However, this did not affect his career. During the reign of Emperor Gaozong, he was a scholar, from a junior official at the grass-roots level to a prime minister.
The whole official career runs through the early Tang Dynasty, from Emperor Gaozong, Wuhou, Zhongzong, Zong Rui to Xuanzong. He held important positions all the way and was worshipped as prime minister several times. However, he is complex and multifaceted, and sometimes he looks upright and does not depend on powerful people. He was denounced by Wu Zetian for saving Di and others, then attached to others, and then followed.
In the post of prime minister, he repeatedly advocated the establishment of official titles to betray people's hearts. After Li Xian's death, out of the need of power struggle, he advocated deposing Li Dan, the king of Xiang. As a result, Li Qiao was demoted as a confidant after launching the Tang Dynasty rebellion to kill Wei. During the Kaiyuan period, Li Jue ascended the throne to Wei Hou, was demoted to Luzhou again, and died in office.
Li Qiao is an official in many aspects, and it is difficult to evaluate his loyalty and living whore in some aspects. However, his literary achievements were so high that even Tang Xuanzong, who hated him deeply, thought his poems were well written. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty liked traditional Chinese opera. He once asked an actor to sing, and one of them sang Li Qiao's poems. It was quite sad to overhear Li Qiao's early poems.
"The second skill is poetry": At the end of Tianbao, Xuanzong borrowed the moon to climb the Qin Zhenglou, and ordered the disciples of Liyuan to sing some songs. A singer of Li Qiaoshi said, "How long can prosperity last? Mountains and rivers are full of tears. I don't see the Fenshui River alone today, and the geese fly in the autumn. " It was already spring and autumn high at that time. When I asked who wrote this poem or told Li Qiao, I cried bitterly and didn't finish singing. I said, "Li Qiao is really a genius."
