In three thousand years of poetic history, we have read too many men's works.
In the vast sea of poetry, there are many women who use their wisdom and talent to compose a song that is not inferior to men's masterpieces through the ages.
They are either sad, or mournful, or dexterous, or joyful, from Cai Wenji to Shangguan Wan'er, from Li Qingzhao to Zhu Shuzhen, those dexterous women have left a strong mark in the history of Chinese literature.
Today, along with the poets, I will meet these 10 female poets and read their amazing works.

01
Talented Woman in the Troubled World: Cai Wenji
Poems of Sorrow and Indignation (excerpt)
Cai Yan
Han Ji lost his authority, and Dong Zhuo was in chaos.
If you want to usurp the land, you will first harm the virtuous.
Forced to move to the old state, support the Lord to strengthen themselves.
Hai Nei Xingyi, want to discuss the ominous.
Zhuo Zhong came to the east, and the golden armor shone brightly.
The Pingtu people are fragile, and the soldiers are all Hu Qiang.
Hunting wild besieged the city, and all directions were destroyed.
Cai Yan, the word Wen Ji.
In the era of great chaos in the world at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cai Wenji was a strong flower in the chaotic world.
Like everyone else, she was coerced into the chaos of war, witnessing the killing and death in the war, and the bitter and cruel sadness was integrated into her "Poems of Sorrow and Indignation".
Cai Wenji's "Poem of Sorrow and Indignation" is a narrative poem that records the tragic fate of ordinary people after dong Zhuo's world chaos, and this is also cai Wenji's fate.
She recounted that period of history with great talent and compassion, which was a woman's last tenderness to the world.

Female Middle School Shangshu: Shangguan Wan'er
"Color Book Complaint"
At the beginning of the Cave Court under the leaves, Sijun Wanliyu.
The dew incense was cold, and the moon fell on the screen.
Want to play Jiangnan qu, covet the Jibei Book.
There is no other intention in the book, but I have been away for a long time.
In the poetry of the early Tang Dynasty, Shangguan Wan'er was the existence of a super-super man.
She was a female official in the palace, trusted by Wu Zetian, and became a private secretary. And because of his high talent, he often presided over poetry meetings in the palace, and poets such as Song Zhiqing and Shen Qiqi often had works that should be made, and Shangguan Wan'er always served as a judge, and everyone was impressed.
Even if you are in a high position, for love, for lovers, it is still affectionate.
"Cai Shu Wei" is a representative work of Shangguan Wan'er, the author with the tone of a woman in the boudoir, created the image of a wife who missed her husband who had been away for a long time in autumn, the whole poem is deep and open, natural and sincere, beautiful and subtle, neat and tidy, full of affection.
Lu Chang, a scholar of the Qing Dynasty, praised in the "Poetry of Famous Ladies of All Dynasties" that "Zhaorong cai is brightly thoughtful, the pen is comfortable, and there is the style of a famous scholar".

Datang Girls' School Book: Xue Tao
"Send a Friend"
There is frost in the water country at night, and the cold mountains of the moon are all green.
Whoever speaks thousands of miles from this night is as far away from the dream as the guan sai long.
In Datang, Xue Tao was a stubborn being. The family fell in the middle of the road and became an official prostitute; by virtue of talent, they fellowshiped with talents; they took refuge in Huanhuaxi.
Although the talented Xue Tao was an official prostitute, the governor admired her talent and asked the emperor to make her a "girls' school book", and the name of "girls' school book" spread from then on.
Her talent is indeed high, and the Talents of the Tang Dynasty, Yuan Shu and Wang Jian, have sung peace with her.
This song "Send a Friend" is her masterpiece.
The talents of the Tang Dynasty are like clouds, and the masterpieces are like the sea. And some people have commented on her "Send a Friend": Can compete with Tang Caizi.
Who says women are inferior to men. In the world dominated by men, Xue Tao lived out his own world with his talent.
04
HuiXin: Fish Mystery
"The Girl Next Door"
Shame covers the sleeves, and worries about the spring lazy makeup.
Easy to ask for priceless treasure, rare to have a heart.
Tears lurked on the pillow, and the intestines were cut off between the flowers.
Since he could spy on Song Yu, why should he hate Wang Chang?
As a talented woman of the Tang Dynasty, Yu Xuanji is one of many infatuated women.
Since ancient times, the red face is more than a thin life, Yu Xuanji is an advocate girl, beautiful in appearance, talented, and attracted the favor of many people of the wind.
But in her heart, she only wanted to marry a desirable person for the rest of her life. But Li Yi, whom she married, was not a good person.
Li Yi already had a wife and did not tolerate Yu Xuanji, and as a result, Yu Xuanji began a life of sadness.
The biggest tragedy of Yu Xuanji is that he is too addicted to love, and then he is hurt by love.
Reason and emotion are things that all women will hesitate to do, let alone fish mysteries?
05
Female Shihao: Li Jilan
"Eight To"
To near to far east and west, to deep to shallow clear stream.
From the highest to the moon and the sun, to the closest to the estranged husband and wife.
Li Ye, the character Jilan, is listed among the "four female poets of the Tang Dynasty".
She is talented, has a personality like a man, and has frankly fellowship with Liu Changqing and Jiaoran, sweeping away the shyness of female poets, and has been praised for thousands of years.
In the view of the poet Jun, Li Ye is a very rational poet, and the poem "Eight To" has quite a philosophical meaning.
The most recent, the farthest, the dearest, and the most alienated, like the modern dialectics, is indeed a fact of human feelings.
Many times, women always have a pair of different men's eyes and discover the truth of life.
06
Empress of the Word Country: Li Qingzhao
"Like a Dream, Last Night's Rain and Wind"
Last night the rain was sparse and the wind was strong, and the heavy sleep did not consume the wine.
Try to ask the curtain people, but the begonias are still the same.
Know it or not, know it or not? It should be green fat red thin.
For thousands of years, the most dazzling female poet is none other than Li Qingzhao.
She came from a family of officials and eunuchs, loved literature since childhood, and her early works had the agility and lingering lovesickness of a young girl; after middle age, she experienced the destruction of the country and the death of her family, and her works were full of heavy sorrow.
The changes in Li Qingzhao's life can all find shadows in her works.
When writing this song "Like a Dream Order", Li Qingzhao was still a carefree boudoir girl, she liked to drink, and after getting drunk, she also cared about the begonia flowers in the rain, and wrote the good sentence of "green fat red thin".
After the word "green fat red skinny" spread, the scribes at that time praised her wonderful imagination.
Because of Li Qingzhao, there is a bright color in the history of literature, and even men are admired for her talent.

Broken intestines: Zhu Shuzhen
"Minus Magnolia Spring Grudge"
Sitting alone, singing alone and sleeping alone.
Standing hurt, helplessly touching people with a cold breeze.
Whoever sees this, tears wash the makeup without half.
The sorrow is still the same, and the dream of eliminating the cold lamp is not successful.
Zhu Shu is really a talented woman, but also an obsessive woman who longs for love.
Eager for romantic love, she married a small official who did nothing and suffered domestic violence from her husband. In desperation, she left her husband, but the heart to pursue love was even stronger.
Her parents did not allow her, and she had to send her affection in the filler words.
She gradually grew older, and loneliness wrapped around her, so she had this song "Minus Magnolia".
"Sitting alone, singing alone and sleeping alone." It's a dazzling read.
Zhu Shuzhen is not filling in words with a pen, but filling in words with life.
08
Bloody Princess: Lady Huarui
"Poetry of the Fall of the Nation"
The flag was lowered on the king's city, and the concubines learned in the deep palace?
140,000 people were disarmed, and not a single one was a man!
Lady Huarui was a concubine of Later Shu Meng Chang, and the Song army suppressed the territory, and Meng Chang was helpless and humiliated and surrendered.
Lady Huarui, who is quite bloody, angrily wrote this poem, "140,000 people" do not have a single hero of the dead country, there is no half a star and a little husband, of course, the language is exaggerated, but it is powerful to write a woman's shame: shame lies in dying without fighting.
It is said that Zhao Kuangyin, the grandfather of the Song Dynasty, greatly admired Lady Huarui's talent and ambition.
Lady Huarui, a woman, made the men ashamed. How many admirable women like Madame Huarui are there in this world, obscure and lost in history!

The first female lyricist of the Qing Dynasty: He Shuangqing
"Phoenix Stage Memories blowing pipes , inch inch micro cloud"
Every inch of the clouds, the slightest remnant of the light, there is no confusion to extinguish. The soul is broken, and the sparkle is shaking. Looking at the mountains and rivers, people go and faintly detour. From now on, the bitterness is like tonight.
Qingyao. Ask the sky should not be, look at the little double Qing, bored. Who to see, who to see, who to be bitter? Who wants to rejoice, steal from the powder, write and write sketches? Who cares, life and death, night and night dynasty.
She is the "first female lyricist of the Qing Dynasty" and the most distressing woman.
Born in a peasant family, she is talented and intelligent, but her fate is not good.
When she married early, she had to endure the hardships of her husband and mother-in-law, and she could only write poems on the leaves and on the ground.
The decaying leaves could not hide her talent, and some people liked her words, but she could only live a miserable life.
A neighbor girl helped her, and now, she is going to get married, Shuangqing is full of feelings, and writes this song: Since you left, you have put me in loneliness and boredom, no one cares for me, help me, it is really sad.
Forty words are stacked in the whole word, which shows the talent of Shuang Qing.
Some poems are the life of poets, and for Shuangqing, her words are life blood and tears.

Female Haojie: Qiu Jin
"Partridge Sky: The Sense of The Sinking of the Motherland"
The motherland can't help but feel the sinking, idle overseas to find a voice.
Jin Ou has been missing and must always be made up, and he dares to sacrifice himself for the country!
Sigh and sigh. Guan Shan Wanli made a heroic journey.
Hugh said that the woman was not a British object, and the night dragon spring wall sounded.
Since ancient times, the male protagonist is outside, and the female protagonist is inside. The woman has always tacitly agreed that she should stay at home and teach her husband and children.
However, Qiu Jin resolutely walked out of the family, cared about the fate of the country, and began to look for the way to national salvation.
Who said that women cannot become heroes, you see the dragon spring sword on the wall, the night dragon chant, a picture of dedication to the country.
Qiu Jin is known as the "JianHu Woman", and her life is a female inspirational textbook.
Who says a woman isn't a phoenix? Who says women are things in a pool? When they awaken, they will explode with amazing power.
Bing Xin said: If there are no women in the world, the world will lose at least five-tenths of the "truth", six-tenths of the "goodness", and seven-tenths of the "beauty".
In fact, in addition to truth, goodness and beauty, women also give courage, strength, and rigidity, and they have written legends with their own lives, and bloomed with dazzling brilliance in the world dominated by men.
