In the fourth year of Emperor Gaozong's reign, Zhu Xi was born in a small pavilion under Yuxiu Peak outside Longxi City, Fujian Province, when the wind and rain outside the window were mixed, lightning flashed and thundered; the lights inside the house were dim, and the baby fell to the ground. No one could have guessed that such a very weak creature would affect future generations for hundreds of years.
Zhu Xi lost his father at the age of 13 and gradually grew up by relying on the help of his father's friends. However, he is very sensible and diligent since he was a child, and he was a jinshi at the age of 19. Later, he studied science with Li Tong, and since then his studies have been like a flying fish and a new journey.
However, no one can go smoothly, and Caizi once encountered trouble, but he became more and more frustrated and courageous, and finally achieved a great cause. The following two poems of Zhu Xi are introduced, with clear words and beautiful sentences, beautiful and picturesque, and show the indomitable heroic embrace.
Two Heads of The Water Mouth Boat (Part 1)
Last night, the flat boat rained, how about the wind and waves in the river at night?
Looking at the exam paper alone, there are still many green mountains and trees.
In the first year of the Southern Song Dynasty, Han Nongxin served as a taishi, and he vigorously forbade Zhu Xi's theory of Science and demeaned the ministers represented by Zhao Ruyu. In order to take refuge, Zhu Xi had to go from the north of Fujian to the minguan in Gutian, where the Song Dynasty once set up a Shuikou Village, which was the main road of water and land transportation, and this poem was written in Shuikou.
It was early spring, and the poet woke up in the morning, feeling cold, which suddenly reminded him of the scene of last night's rush. "Last night, the flat boat was raining, how about the night of the wind and waves in the river?" A flat leaf boat braved the rain to travel at night, he was wearing a coat to stand on the bow of the ship, but the night was shrouded, and his eyes were pitch black, and the poet felt bored, so he had to return to the cabin and sleep.
At this time, he was very curious, last night when he fell into a deep sleep, what was the wind and waves in the river? Missing many of the scenery along the way at night, the poet got up early in the morning hoping to make up for it. The three words "how the night" leave suspense and also do a good job of gathering momentum for the following text.
The last two sentences show the poet's joy, "Looking at the exam paper alone today, there are still many green mountains and trees." He quickly rolled up the canopy window, and eagerly looked out, not wanting to miss more beautiful scenery, and when the window opened, the scenery on both sides of the river that poured into his eyes was still similar to yesterday, still full of green mountains and trees.
The word "still" seems bland, but it shows that the author is obsessed with green mountains and rivers, and also loves fresh and clear nature, and can finally get out of the depressed state of mind, and expresses a deep meaning: no matter how the storm rages, as long as it does not change and the atmosphere lasts forever, nature will definitely not live up to people's affection and expectations.
Shuikou Boat 2 (Part 2)
The lush layers of mountains are green, and the green water of the spring mountains is silent.
What do you know when the smoke waves are gone? The two mountains of the birds are relatively loud.
After a night's rest, coupled with the first day after the rain and the clear sky, the author's spirit is uplifted, and the pen end also appears relaxed and flexible. While admiring the scenery on the shore, the poet blurted out, "The lush layers of mountains are green on the shore, and the green water of the spring mountains is silent." ”
The green mountains are sandwiched between the two shores, lush and undulating; the green water is still and silent, as if it is afraid to disturb the poet's ideas. The three words "go silent" are written in stillness, not only can you imagine the scene of flowing water, but also feel the state of the poet's inner thoughts.
The last two sentences are even more profound, "What do you know when the smoke waves are gone?" The two mountains of the birds are relatively loud. The poet was reveling in the green mountains and clear waters, and temporarily forgot his worries and melancholy, when suddenly a leaf light boat broke into the line of sight, breaking through the morning mist, and also breaking the silence in front of him. At this time, the cries of cuckoos were heard in the distant valley, which made people linger even more.
The author ends the whole article with a scene, without mentioning a word of joy, but the joy has long been overflowing. At the same time, "Smoke and Waves" is also very exquisitely designed, which can not only arouse the curiosity of readers, but also make people realize that the poet must be envious of the residents here, who can stay away from the hustle and bustle and rarely worry; the three words "relatively loud" more euphemistically express the poet's feelings about his wanderings and his yearning for a reclusive life.
Zhu Xi's two absolute sentences, clear words and beautiful sentences, are beautiful and picturesque. Describing the scenery on the river, the previous poem uses the words "how is the night" to ask questions, and uses "test paper, still" as an answer, showing the scene after the rain, subtle and fascinating. At the same time, the author is also allegorical to the scene and allegorical to the fun, which makes people enlightened and profound after reading.
The latter poem describes the silent landscape and the answer of the cuckoo, a still movement, and a reflection of each other. As soon as the smoke waves rise, it is even more moving and still, and there is movement in the stillness, showing an extremely beautiful realm, and even more showing the poet's heroic embrace that is not afraid of hardships!
