Text / First Brew
It's another year of apricot blossoms, as bright as clouds, as white as snow. I can't help but think of the person who is known as the "Red Apricot Shangshu" - Song Qi.
The East City gradually felt that the scenery was good, and the wrinkles and ripples welcomed the guests.
The green poplar smoke is cold and light, and the red apricot branches are full of spring.
Floating growth hates joy and entertainment, and ken loves Qianjin and smiles lightly.
For the king to hold the wine to persuade the sun, and to leave a late photo between the flowers.
- "Yulou Spring"
A sentence of "red apricot branches are full of spring", let people remember him, remember the apricot forest with flowers. His spring is lively, his apricot blossoms are happy, like a group of children, playing and playing, full of fun.
Song Qi, Zi Jing, Hubei Anlu people, after the official eunuch. In the second year of the Northern Song Dynasty, he and his brother Song Itch held up a jinshi, known as the "Second Song", also known as "Double Element".
Song Qi was born in the prosperous era of the Northern Song Dynasty, the world was peaceful, coupled with the Song Dynasty's emphasis on literature and light martial arts, the literati were like fish in this environment, living a dashing and comfortable life. Song Qi is a person who likes to be lively, although his career is not Shunda, but there are not too many twists and turns. The prosperity and stability of life made him love song and dance.
Regardless of the teenager, the streamer is like an arrow, and he does not feel that Shaoguang is changed.
To this day, the moon is full, the flowers are full, and the wine is full.
The flat boat wants to dissolve the weeping willows, and the feast will be feasted, and the sun will be scattered.
Leaning on the blue tree, looking at the water far away, the sky far away, the people far away.
- "The Waves and Sands Near"
Why run and toil in pursuit of fame and fortune, and let the flow of years be empty. It is better to cherish the flowers in front of you, the full moon, and the wine is happy. This is what he did to send off his friend Liu Chang, there is a faint melancholy between the lines, Lan Zhou urged, friends separated, from this day the sky is high and far away, when will we see each other again?
Anyone, when separated, is inevitable to leave the sorrows. But his farewell words are like a misty morning, with a little bit of mourning, but through the mourning can still see the clear blue sky.
The flowers will bloom again, the moon will be lacking and can be reunited, and at this time when the flowers are full and the moon is full, enjoy the feast of fine wine. This is Song Qi, the Song Qi of sunshine.
The moon in Song Qi's eyes was cold and lonely without others. Li Shangyin said: "Xiao Jing but the clouds have changed, and the night yin should feel the cold of the moonlight." His moon was cold, with a hint of coldness; Li Bai said, "Raise a glass to invite Mingyue, and make three of them." His moon was lonely, carrying boundless loneliness; Jiang Kui said: "The Twenty-Four Bridges are still there, the waves are wavering, and the cold moon is silent." "His moon is mournful, accompanied by a cry of mourning.
But Song Qi's moon is not the case, his moon is lovely, clear, accompanied by a refreshing breeze, freely moving through the clouds.
The moon is so cute, and the hall is wandering together.
White dew is gentle, and the breeze is suitable for coming together.
Munching is full of light, and Wu Ge is crying.
Wan Worried Fang Cen was silent, worried about Yun Hanhui.
- "To the Moon"
The state is born of the mind, and all the objects in nature are thoughts and thoughts in people's hearts. Song Qi's heart was clear, like a bowl of clear water without too much dust. The world in his eyes is also clear, without too much sorrow, without too much lamentation.
He advocates living in the present and not worrying about the past and the future. Perhaps his view of life is not recognized by contemporary people, but compared to the Song Dynasty, this view is understandable. Too many literati and dignitaries are pursuing this kind of comfortable life, not seeking to flow for hundreds of lifetimes, but more concerned about the arbitrariness and elegance in front of them.
The flowers in Song Qi's pen are always so prosperous and warm, clustered and clustered, competing for beauty, not clear cold, not lonely, just like the Great Song at that time, it seems to be prosperous and prosperous, and the country is safe.
The swallows murmur, and the scenery is long and long.
See the garden, a thousand flowers like embroidery. Begonias are soaked with rain rouge.
Willow shows the eyebrows of the palace, and the green whiskers of the pedestrians.
Step into the countryside and join hands with song.
Drunk and still looking for wine.
Ask the shepherd boy and point to the lonely village: 'Deep in the apricot blossoms, there are people there.' ’
- "The Road to The Golden Entanglement"
After a spring rain, the willow tips are emerald green, and the clusters of begonias are soaked like rouge, delicate and dripping. It was the right time for Song Qi to live up to this great spring light, so he was drunk and still went looking for aromatic wine. The shepherd boy gently lifted the horizontal flute and pointed to the isolated village, deep in the apricot blossoms, there was the fine wine he wanted.
His flowers are luxuriant, his moon is refreshing, and his wine is even more mellow. After he developed, feasting and drinking became the norm of his life, and wine was an indispensable necessity. It is said that Song Qi's life was extremely luxurious, and the feasts in his home were like flowing water, day after day. It was often a mellow wine and a beautiful woman, who stayed up all night, so his family's banquet was called "not knowing the sky".
Autumn evening jia morning heavy material, high platform re-accounting stationed in the sound of the flute.
Ao Huan ren fell in front of the wind hat, promoting drinking and blowing wine on the flowers.
The creek is clear and the rain is over at the beginning of the day, and the sun traces are light and not in the sun.
The white head is too defensive and stupid, full of planting and hoping to ward off evil spirits.
INTERVIEWER "Nine-Day Sake"
Drink and admire chrysanthemums at the Chongyang Festival, and talk about ancient and modern anecdotes. Meng Jia dropped his hat, a faction of celebrities, and warded off evil spirits, which is a legend through the ages, and anecdotes make everyone happy. As the saying goes: Happy is a day; unhappy is also a day. Since the days pass by no matter what, why not let yourself be happy in your lifetime?
Perhaps, Song Qi is the best practitioner of this sentence, he strives to make his every day full of enthusiasm, happiness and happiness. He drank in the midst of a kaleidoscope of flowers, and he admired the flowers between drinks, and the flowers and wines complemented each other perfectly.
Song Qi was addicted to wine, but he was not a greedy person, he had won a lot of public praise in office, and when he left Chengdu, all the people competed for it.
Everyone knows the slow life in Chengdu now, in fact, the Chengdu people at that time were like this, comfortable and idle, content and happy. Therefore, the fifty-five-year-old Song Qi was transferred to Chengdu, which was also in line with his wishes. During his tenure in Chengdu, he often led his hands to play in the mountains and rivers, feast and drink, and live a very comfortable life.
It is precisely because of this life of his that Chengdu's catering and entertainment are flourishing and prosperous. At the same time, he is not a careless person, in addition to playing, by the way, he inspected many local products, and wrote the "Yibu Fangwu Sketch", which recorded in detail the grasses, trees, medicinal materials, birds and animals in Yizhou, providing rich research materials for future generations.
Before Song Qi died, he made a will, warning his son that the funeral was from Jane, there was no need to look at feng shui, a simple coffin could be, and even the stone people and stone beasts in the cemetery did not want it. He also said: "I am not a famous scholar, and the article only reaches the middle man, not enough to hang behind." "He has extravagant fun, he seems to be clumsy, but he is the clearest person in his heart."
Why should there be too much pursuit in life, full moon, full flowers, full of wine.
