Chapter 144: Old and Strong

The old school nunnery talks at night

Jiannan's poetry is famous

Xin Qiji is curious, it is said that you grew up in a wealthy family, did not suffer from war, and should have become a weak scholar, but why do you have a heroic spirit?

Where have I not been war-torn about? I was born in the seventh year of Xuanhe (1125), on the Huaihe boat that my father was edicted to enter Beijing, and when I was less than two years old, I caught up with the Jin soldiers to attack the Southern Song Dynasty. In his father's arms, in his hometown of Shaoxing, he would often talk about national affairs with his friends, and when he spoke, he would be impassioned:

Who will turn the tide? Who will support the building in the future? Who is it!

Therefore, from a young age, fighting for the country and establishing military merits has become an ideal in my heart, and I also learned swordsmanship from a teacher in my teens.

In officialdom, why are you repeatedly belittled?

At the age of thirty-six, Qin Hui had died, and I was transferred to Lin'an, where I was responsible for compiling the decrees and proclamations issued by the imperial court.

At that time, Emperor Gaozong was pampering Yang Cunzhong, this surnamed Yang, corruption has reached the point of blatant, married dozens of wives, anyone who gave birth to a son, gave tens of thousands of copper coins, I can't get used to it, and together with other officials, he wrote a letter asking for his dismissal, which annoyed Gaozong and was demoted from Beijing.

After Xiaozong ascended the throne, he was transferred back to Kyoto, and saw Zeng Mao, a disciple favored by Xiaozong, who was fooling around with the emperor and the emperor, and asked Xiaozong to drive Zeng Mu away, but Zeng Mo was not driven away, and he was driven to Zhenjiang.

Speaking of which, I blame myself for being too reckless, too impatient, and too fanatical.

What was the most memorable part of your officialdom?

At the age of forty-five, because of Zhang Yan's recommendation, he went to Kuizhou, Sichuan to be a general judge. Before, his eyes were so excited that he had even figured out how to train his troops and how to implement his Northern Expedition plan.

In order not to waste time on the way to visit relatives, he took his five sons and three daughters, three maids and four servants with him, and the family of seventeen went to Sichuan.

The whole family took a boat upstream, through the Three Gorges to Kuizhou, but walked to Huangzhou Chibi, the boat broke a big hole, to Zigui, the boat hit the reef and broke a big hole, the family was almost drowned several times, when the youngest daughter was just four years old.

Sichuan Xuanfu envoy Wang Yan is a standard military general, no nonsense, immediately arrange a job for him, as a staff officer, immediately take off the Confucian crown, wear iron armor, ride a war horse, hang a sword at the waist, set foot on the rugged and bumpy mountain road, galloping back and forth between Sichuan and Shaanxi. Standing in the Jin Ge Iron Horse, facing Xiao Xiao's border pass, listening to Diao Dou and drums, he wrote a lot of passionate and generous poems.

In Nanzheng, Sichuan, he used his break time to practice archery, and he actually practiced two-handed shooting.

This trick won unanimous praise from the soldiers in the military parade on the Weinan Plain organized by Wang Yan.

On that day, Lu You wore a military uniform, hung two bows and two pots of arrows, flew on his horse, ran to the end of the school field, turned around and galloped, shooting the target while riding a horse, shooting the left target with his right hand to hold the bow, shooting the right target with the left hand holding the bow, the arrow was not missing, and the three armies were thunderous.

Even Wang Yan nodded frequently: Lu Gong can shoot left and right, I might as well do it.

But this happy life did not last a few months, and with Wang Yan transferred back to Lin'an, Lu You was also transferred to Chengdu to serve as the idle post of senator of the pacification department.

To this day, what regrets do you have? What do you love best?

There are a few sentences in "Golden Wrong Knife Xing" that can express my thoughts:

The husband has not made fifty achievements, and he is independent of the eight wildernesses.

The thousand-year-old annals are nameless, and a piece of Dan is repaying the Son of Heaven.

Today, I am in my 80s, and there is no better thing I can do than read. There is no question about the warmth and coldness of people, and I hate myself if my hands don't touch the book. Now, in his lifetime, he revised the "Jiannan Poems".

Oh, that's a good thing. Tell me about it.

In the fourteenth year of Chunxi (1172), when I was the governor of Yanzhou, my student Zheng Shiyin was Di Gonglang, who supervised the taxation of Yanzhou, and when I talked about poetry, I wanted to come up with a collection. Zheng Shiyin was very supportive, and took the initiative to help the editor sort it out and find someone to engrave it. At that time, nearly 700 poems were found, and because there was a saying that the poems of Jiannan were spread all over the world, they were named "Jiannan Poems". In the past two years, more than 400 poems have been found and compiled into "Jiannan Poems Continuation", no, Su Junlin, a native of Meishan, has collected 1,500 poems of various kinds. Be prepared to look at it from the beginning, make slight changes, and rearrange it into a set.

Okay, the article is eternal, and you know the gains and losses. More than 2,000 poems, all of which were written by Brother Wuguan, were printed and passed on to future generations.

A hundred years later, who still knows about Lu Wuguan, only leaving some poems for future generations to entertain.

Where, no matter when Brother Wuguan's poems arrive, they will make people's hearts surging and their blood boiling. As he spoke, he picked up the manuscript and flipped through it, and you see:

The white-headed man is here, and when he is independent.

The prime of life passes casually, and the west wind and falling leaves are even more poetic.

The strong heart is not completely gone, and the clothes are covered with dust and wine marks.

Travel all over the world, the body is still healthy, and the soul is lost everywhere

Especially this one. 30,000 miles east of the river into the sea, 5,000 miles on the sky.

The bereaved people were in tears, and they looked south to Wang Shi for another year.

Reading it makes people's hearts ache and can't help but cry.

This is the second song of "The Autumn Night Will Dawn Out of the Fence to Welcome the Cool Two Songs". The first song is: The southwest of the Han Dynasty falls, and the chickens crow again and again. Ambition is exhausted, and he goes out to scratch his head and worry about his life. In the autumn of the third year of Shaoxi (1192), in the countryside of San'in, the weather was hot and the heart was boiling, and I couldn't sleep peacefully. At the dawn, I stepped out of the fence and touched my heart, becoming these two poems.

The first poem is written about the Milky Way falling westward, and the rooster is about to dawn, rendering a vast and quiet atmosphere from what he sees and hears. The three words "repeatedly ringing" show that all feelings have been secretly gathered. Three or four sentences write "feeling" positively. The word "desire" and the word "sorrow" express the feeling of having the intention to kill the enemy and being unable to return to the sky. The first song wins with depression, and the second song wins with majesty. The first song is like an overture, and the second song is the main song, with a broader artistic conception and more painful feelings. The two sentences, one horizontal and one vertical, the shape of half of China in the northern Central Plains are clearly and abruptly displayed. The magnificent mountains and rivers mark the loveliness of the motherland, symbolize the strength and unyielding of the people, and leave a rich space for imagination. However, the great rivers and mountains fell into the hands of the enemy, which made people feel extremely indignant. The artistic conception of these two sentences is expanded and deep, and the neatness of the battle is still a superfluous matter. As soon as the next two sentences turned, I suddenly felt that the wind and clouds were prominent, and the poetry was opened up in a more far-reaching direction. The word "tears" is endless, and it contains infinite bitterness. "Eyes dry and blood will eventually be seen", those remnants who cherish their homeland still look to the south sky; The dust raised by the Golden Centaur team kept them looking forward to the sight of Wang Shi. With "Hu Chen" as the background of "tears", the feelings became more and more painful. The word "again" in the concluding sentence expands the upper limit of time. They looked forward to the Southern Song Dynasty being able to go on the Northern Expedition year after year, but this wish was disappointed year after year.
