Reading The Occasional Tale of the Night | (II)

Night Reading (2)

Jiang Baobing

People in middle age, experienced too many ups and downs, accustomed to seeing the clouds cirrus clouds, vicissitudes and mulberry fields, the mood calmed down. In the silent night, it is customary to touch an idle book, under the lone lamp, leaning on the bed to idle reading, relaxing the tired nerves. Recently, You Like reading Song Ci and feel that the mood of Song Ci is very good for my middle-aged spleen and stomach, among them, You Like to read Su Dongpo's words. The night is deeper, the silence is quiet, through the heavy night, the spiritual communication with the sages, through the thousand years of time, to be a confidant of the ages.

"Linjiang Immortals Night Return to Lingao"

Night drink Dongpo woke up drunk, and returned as if it had changed three times.

The children's sniffles were already thunderous, and they should not knock on the door, leaning on the staff to listen to the sound of the river.

Long hate this body is not me, when to forget the camp.

The night wind is quiet and flat, the boat has passed away, and the river and sea have been parasitized for the rest of their lives.

Reading The Occasional Tale of the Night | (II)

Su Shi's Linjiang Xian - Night Return to Lingao was written in the fifth year of Emperor Yuanfeng of the Song Dynasty, and was also the third year that Su Shi was demoted to Huangzhou. On the late autumn night, the lyricist drank freely in the Dongpo Snow Hall, returned to his residence after getting drunk, and wrote out the lyricist's attitude of retreating from society, abandoning the world, and the idea of coming out of the world that requires complete liberation. "Night drinking Dongpo wakes up drunk", at the beginning of the point point out the place of night drinking and the degree of drunkenness. The eastern slope was originally a wasteland in the east of Huangzhou City. After Su Shi demoted officials to Huangzhou, he planted trees here, admiring the Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi's cultivation of the eastern slope of Zhongzhou, Sichuan, named this place "Dongpo", built a "snow hall", and used "Dongpo" as his nickname. Su Shi's residence in Huangzhou, Lingao Pavilion, faces the Yangtze River. When Su Dongpo returned to the Lingao apartment, he was already drunk and awake, awake and drunk. "Returning as if it has changed three times", the first two sentences, first "wake up drunk", and then a "as if", will vividly show Su Dongpo's arrogance of drinking. "The child's sniffles have thundered. Knock on the door should not be, lean on the staff to listen to the sound of the river." The next three sentences, the scene where the writer has arrived at the apartment and stopped at the door of the house. Although the writer knocked on the door one after another, the child, because he could not wait for the master to return late at night, had been asleep for a long time, snoring like thunder, and was completely unaware of the knocking sound. The writer simply stopped knocking on the door, and when this silent night, he turned to the river with a cane and listened to the sound of the waves. The lyricist is a dashing figure of the wind god, a ghostly person with a broad heart and an independent death, and what is infiltrated in his heart is a kind of attitude towards life and a super-open spiritual world.

"I hate this body for not me, when will I forget the camp?" At the beginning of the next film, it is the philosophy of the lyricist "leaning on the staff to listen to the sound of the river". "Camp camp", originally meant to be non-stop, here refers to the confusion of fame and fortune. Here, with a philosophical speculation that is thoroughly enlightened, Su Shi sends out a deep sigh of doubt, boredom, hopelessness, and sustenance for the whole existence, the universe, life, and society. These two sentences are full of philosophy and willfulness, expressing a kind of confusion and sentimentality in life that cannot be liberated and requires liberation. "The night wind is quiet and flat, the boat has passed away, and the river and the sea have been sent for the rest of their lives." If you want to spend half your life upside down and drift around, when will you be able to avoid being bound by external objects and be willful? "Nightshade", late at night. Yarn, with wrinkles. "Wrinkles" refers to microwaves on the surface of the water. The quiet of the night is not only a reflection of the calm river surface without wind in the middle of the night, but also a symbol of the quiet and transcendent state of mind of the writer at this time.

Reading The Occasional Tale of the Night | (II)

The writer meditates quietly at night, suddenly has an understanding, the heart and the scenery meet, the gods and things travel, and are deeply intoxicated by such a quiet and beautiful nature. He can't help but have a romantic fantasy divorced from real society, and the writer must take advantage of this beautiful scenery, ride a flat boat, stay away from the hustle and bustle of the world, go with the flow of the waves, and spend the rest of his life in the depths of the rivers and lakes, melting his limited life into infinite nature. After Su Dongpo was hit hard politically, his thinking changed several times, and he shifted from joining the WTO to coming out of the world, pursuing a spiritually free and natural ideal of life. This is not so much influenced by Taoist thought as it is influenced by Confucius's idea that "the Tao does not work, but floats on the sea".

In Su Dongpo's complex Confucian-dominated outlook on life, due to the mix of some Lao Zhuang thoughts, he formed a broad and uninhibited character in the painful adversity. "The boat has passed away since then, and the river and the sea have sent the rest of their lives", this deep and long ending, writing the lyricist's dashing and fairy-like broad heart, is his dissatisfaction with the world and his yearning for freedom. According to the legend in the Notes of the Song Dynasty, after Su Shi composed the "Linjiang Immortal", he rode away in the captain' boat. When the county sheriff Xu Junyou knew about it, he was very scared, thinking that the state had lost his guilt, and hurried to catch up, when he caught up, he saw Su Dongpo snoring like thunder. It seems that the return of the lyricist Su Dongpo can only be a dream in the camp world. Whether it is the heavens on earth or the temples of the rivers and lakes, for Su Shi is the outer world that binds him, and his final destination and liberation can only be his own heart.
