Poetry hunting every day
Pay attention to the reading dogs
Du Mu was a famous poet in the late Tang Dynasty. During the reign of Emperor Wuzong of Tang, he served as an assassin in Chizhou, Anhui. Chizhou is located on the south bank of the Yangtze River, where the mountains and rivers are beautiful and the scenery is beautiful. Du Mu often changed into civilian clothes in his spare time and went out with friends.
This day coincides with the Qingming Festival, and in the morning, the sky is clear and the spring breeze is blowing, which is a good time to travel. Therefore, Du Mu invited his friends to ride horses together to the outskirts of Qingqing. At this time, everything in the suburbs is revived, red and green, and a vibrant and spring-like scenery.
It was almost noon, and Du Mu and his friends had exhausted their travels and were ready to return home. But just halfway through, the sky suddenly became gloomy, and then it began to rain heavily. The sudden drizzle caught pedestrians off guard, and everyone quickly packed their bags and hurried back.
"Makiyuki, what now?" Do you want to find a place to hide from the rain first? Friend Lema asked.
"It's okay. It's still a long way off, so I'm sure my clothes are wet when I go back. Let's find a tavern to hide from. ”
The two looked around, and only then did they realize that there was no restaurant in the suburbs, and even a family could not be seen. How can this be done?
Just as the two hesitated, a melodious flute sounded in the distance. Following the prestige, I saw a shepherd boy with a bucket hat riding on the back of an ox, blowing a flute to meet him. The two were overjoyed, as if they had met a savior, and the horse came to the shepherd boy's side.
Du Mu smiled and asked, "Little friend, is there a restaurant near here?" ”
The shepherd boy stopped playing the flute, and after looking at the two of them, smiled and said, "Of course there is." Oh, there are a lot of restaurants in the apricot blossom village over there! He said and turned back to the village in the distance.
The two looked in the direction the shepherd boy was pointing, and sure enough, they saw the apricot blossoms in the distance like powder, and the flag of the restaurant could be faintly seen at the tip. "Thanks for pointing it out!" Confirming that there was a restaurant in front of them, the two were slightly relieved.
"By the way, the rice wine at the Zhao Family Tavern in the village is delicious and sweet, and the two officials must try it!" The shepherd boy blinked slyly, then rode on the back of an ox and leisurely blew his flute and walked away.
Du Mu and his friends came to the head of the village, and sure enough, they saw the sign of the Zhao Family Tavern. So, according to the shepherd boy's words, the two dismounted and went to the store. The restaurant quickly put wine and dishes on the table.
Du Mu lifted the wine glass, and the aroma of wine immediately came to his nose; after taking another sip, he suddenly felt sweet and refreshing, and it entered his spleen and lungs, and he couldn't help but praise: "Sure enough, good wine, it is worthy of the name!" ”
When the shopkeeper heard Du Mu's praise, he felt that there was something in his words, so he went forward and asked, "Officer, how do you say this?" ”
Du Mu told the store about the rain just now and the guidance of the shepherd boy. Who knew that the shopkeeper laughed after hearing it: "Don't hide from the guest officer, the shepherd boy whom the two met is probably my son, who just rode out on a bull." ”
Du Mu and his friends looked at each other and immediately laughed.
After a few glasses of wine, Du Mu felt warm on his body. Recalling the scene along the way just now, he made a lot of poetry, asked the shop for paper and pencil, and wrote a poem called "Qingming":
"
clear and bright
Don Du Mu
