"Gentleman Yangyang": It's so happy to sing and dance

For the rulers of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, who were not at ease, there were too many things they needed to worry about, but people could not always be in worry, they should enjoy when they should enjoy it, and they should be happy when they should be happy, which is also a way to survive for people. No, the nobles called the musicians and dancers, and they were to sing and dance tonight, and have a good time. The dancer holds the reed in the sheng for a while, and shakes the feather for a while; The musician plays the piece "You Fang" for a while, and the tune "You Ao" for a while. The fact that people in ancient times did this only shows that music and dance can indeed bring happiness.

Let's get high:

The dancer was beaming, holding the sheng spring in his left hand and beckoning me to play "You Fang" with his right hand. Happy and refreshing!

The dancer Le Taotao, shaking the feather with his left hand, beckoned me to play "by Ao" with his right hand. That's a lot of fun!

"Jan's Water": Soldiers are also homesick

During the reign of King Ping, the Zhou Dynasty was still relatively chaotic, mainly because the authority of the Son of Heaven was weakened and the power of the vassal states became stronger. King Zhou Ping's mother was a native of Shen, and Shen was often harassed by Chu. For the safety of his mother's homeland, King Ping of Zhou transferred part of his army from the Zhou Dynasty to the strategic places of Shen to garrison to prevent the invasion of Chu. These soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty who were sent had to stay away from their hometowns to guard the lands that were not their vassal states, and the dissatisfaction and misery in their hearts would naturally be revealed. The kings of Shen, Fu and Xu are all surnamed Jiang, and King Zhou Ping's mother is the princess surnamed Jiang of Shen State, and she is also related to the two vassal states of Fu and Xu. Therefore, when King Zhou Ping sent troops to defend the Shen State, he would also take care of the two countries of Fu and Xu.

When on duty, the soldiers will be very homesick and miss their wives who are guarding their homes. If a soldier is a river that flows farther and farther away from the spring, then his wife is like an unwavering firewood that does not flow; If the sun and the moon are constantly draining like flowing water, then the feelings of homesickness are like heavy firewood and grass that do not move. The longer the separation, the stronger the feelings of missing his wife. Finally, the soldier cried out to his heart: Are you okay with your wife at home? When will I be able to come home and be with you? The love of husband and wife, the thoughts of the homeland, the suffering of the distant war, and the cry of injustice all melted into the shouts of the soldiers.

This is what the soldier wanted to say in his heart:

No matter how fast the water in the small ditch is, it can't wash away the bundles of firewood. That man from afar can't garrison the walled city of Shenguo with me. I miss you so much, when will I be able to return to my hometown?

No matter how strong the water in the small ditch is, it can't float the bundles of firewood and grass. The man from afar cannot guard the castle of Fuguo with me. I miss you so much, when will I be able to return to my hometown?

No matter how strong the water of the small river ditch is, it cannot flow the bundles of willow branches. That person from afar can't guard the city of Xu Guo with me. I miss you so much, when will I be able to return to my hometown?

"中谷有蓷" (tuī): The abandoned woman also has to face life strongly

When a woman encounters someone unladylike, the end result will be pain, sadness, and anger. The abandonment of women by men in the Spring and Autumn Period shows that masculinism has become the mainstream of social ethics in that era. The woman chose a mate carelessly, married an ungrateful husband, and was finally abandoned, and had to end up feeling sorry for herself. The low status of women in China has a history of more than 2,000 years.

Motherwort is a Chinese herbal medicine, according to the "Compendium of Materia Medica", motherwort has the effect of nominating the mind for women, and can be used for women's treatment and recuperation. In ancient times, when motherwort was mentioned, it could make people think of women's marriage and love, childbirth, family, and husband and wife. After motherwort dries up, it can be used as medicine, which can promote the relationship between husband and wife and be beneficial to childbearing. What would it be like for an abandoned woman to see a withered motherwort!

The woman was abandoned by her affectionate husband, and while she complained about the world, she also began to learn from the pain. She said that getting married is a very difficult thing, and what an unfortunate thing it is to meet someone who is not ladylike, and it is too late to regret it. It seemed to be a summary of her past life and a warning to her future life, telling herself and other married and unmarried women. But this woman is still self-respecting and self-conscious, and her soul is sober and strong.

There is a motherwort in the mountains, and the roots and leaves are withered. A woman was abandoned, sighing and screaming. A sigh and a trumpet, who knows how difficult it is to marry!

There is a motherwort in the valley, and the roots and leaves are dry. A woman was abandoned, and she let out a long sigh. With a long sigh and a shout, it's really annoying to marry a wicked man!

A motherwort in the valley, the dried yellow roots and leaves are like fire. A woman was abandoned, sobbing and tears falling from her eyes. A burst of sobbing and tears, I can't regret who to complain to!

Yuán: The black-and-white era is maddening

The hare is cunning by nature and is used as a metaphor for a villain; The pheasant has a straightforward temperament and is used as a gentleman. The nets of birds and beasts can catch pheasants and hares. But the hunter only caught pheasants, but released the hare, which was used to mean that the villain could be at ease, but the gentleman suffered for no reason. Use such a vivid metaphor to explain how dark the society was at that time.

How good my life was in the past, free and easy, there was no military service, conscription, labor or anything like that. Look at life now, all kinds of suffering, sorrows, and disasters are overwhelming. In the process of changing times, how many disasters have the common people to endure. In an age like this, I really want to sleep for a long time!

The hare is free to go freely, and the pheasant is miserable. When I was a child, people didn't have to do military service; In my adult years, all kinds of sufferings gathered. Sleep long but keep your mouth shut!

The hare is free to go back and forth, and the pheasant is saddened by the net. When I was young, people didn't have to do forced labor; In my adult years, I experienced all kinds of sorrows. Sleep long but close your eyes!

The hare is free to go back and forth, and the pheasant trembles when it falls into the net. When I was a child, people were not subject to servitude; In my adult years, all sorts of calamities came to me. Take a long nap but plug your ears!

Lěi: The suffering of the displaced

In the Western Weekend Year, King Zhou You had no way and was extremely fond of Bao Xi, and later Bao Xi gave birth to a son named Bofu. In order to please Bao Xi, King Zhou You abolished Empress Shen and the crown prince Ji Yijiu, and set up Bao Xi as the queen, and Bofu as the prince. Ji Yijiu is the son of Empress Shen, and he fled to Shen in desperation. Shenhou then united with the state of Xuan and the dog Rong to attack the king of Zhou You, and both the king of Zhou You and Bofu were killed by the dog Rong. Subsequently, the vassal states of Shen, Lu, and Xu supported Ji Yijiu to ascend the throne. In order to avoid the difficulty of dog Rong, Ji Yijiu moved the capital to Luoyi in 770 BC and became the king of Zhou Ping, and the Zhou Dynasty entered the Eastern Zhou Dynasty since then. During the reign of King Ping, the Zhou royal family declined, and the princes were both strong and weak, and King Ping of Zhou spent fifty years in internal and external difficulties before dying in 720 BC.

King Ping's eastward migration made many people have to turn their backs on their clans and stay away from their hometowns. The process of moving eastward is actually a process of displacement, and the people have encountered all kinds of hardships in the process, which is indescribable. And the most important of these sufferings is the separation of relatives and the lack of care from parents and brothers. And this kind of pain, like kudzu, is continuous and endless.

Standing on the edge of the Yellow River, the displaced people saw the lush and continuous kudzu vines, and they couldn't help but feel sad, thinking of their life experience of being far away from their brothers and wandering in a foreign land, and they felt that people were inferior to things. He was in a foreign country, his six relatives had no support, and he had no place to live, so he had to pray to others, and even call Daddy to others, how difficult his situation was, and how humble his status was. But even so, it did not win a trace of pity from others. The misery of drifting, the indifference of the world, this is the pain brought about by displacement.

Kudzu vines are long and entwined, beside the great river bay. The brothers have been separated, which makes people's fathers sad. makes people's fathers sad, where will he appreciate the light.

Kudzu vines tangle and stretch, beside the banks of the great river. The brothers and their flesh have been separated, which makes people's mothers sad. makes people's mothers sad, and she will not help.

Kudzu vines are long and entwined, beside the beach of the great river. The flesh and blood of the brothers have been separated, which makes the hearts of the brothers sad. made people's brother feel sad, and he only pretended to be deaf and dumb.

"Cai Ge": I don't see you for a day, like every three autumns

There is no man and woman in love who do not want to be together day and night, and separation is extremely painful for them, and even a brief separation seems to them to be so long that it is difficult to bear. The temporary separation of a man and a woman in love is an ordinary and most torturous emotion, and the phrase "three autumns a day" is the best summary of this emotion. If you think about it, it's actually a very beautiful feeling, and its value will never fade, but will be passed down with the ages.

Love is so magical:

The girl who picked the arrow. I didn't see her for a day, as if it were three whole months long.

The girl who picked the artemisia. I didn't see her for a day, as if it were three autumns long.

The girl who picked Ai. I didn't see her for a day, it seemed like three years long.
