In the history of China's brilliant Tang poetry, some poets only rely on one work and the history of Youth is eternal, this work must be wonderful, such as Chen Ziang's "Dengyouzhou Tai Song", Zhang Ji's "Fengqiao Night Berth", we want to talk about a poem by the Middle Tang Poet Qian Qi today, "Provincial Trial Xiangling Drums".
In particular, I would like to say that the last two sentences of the poem "Provincial Examination Xiangling DrumSer", "The song is finally gone, and the peaks on the river are green", the artistic conception is vast, it can be described as the language of heaven and man, which is amazing, this poem was composed when he took the entrance examination for the jinshi.
Qian Qi, born in 722 years between the Middle Tang Dynasty and the Sheng Tang Dynasty (?) Today's Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province, known as Wuxing at that time, was one of the "Ten Talents of the Great Calendar". Young Qianqi is very smart, but also particularly diligent, and all those who are smart and diligent in one will definitely have some achievements, and Qianqi is no exception.
But fate makes people, Qian Qi is not smooth at all in the examination room, he is in the examination, the first, and then the examination, and then the first several cycles, this blow is very fatal, will completely defeat people's self-confidence, Qian Qi is also full of pain, loss, wandering, and even the idea of giving up.
It is written that "the black geese of the moon fly high and escape alone at night." Lu Lun in the "Ten Talents of the Great Calendar" who wanted to drive away the light horse and the snow was full of bows and knives also had the experience of repeatedly failing to pass the examination of QianQi, but Lu Lun finally chose another path, that is, to seek the help of powerful people to enter the career, and Qianqi was more and more frustrated and courageous, never gave up, and his persistent persistence finally achieved himself.
In the year of 751, the last insistence finally made Qian Qi the first place in the high school entrance, and the work that won the top of the list is the poem we are going to talk about today, "Provincial Test Xiangling Drumser". It is said that the chief examiner at that time saw this poem, especially the last two sentences, "The song is finally missing, and there are several peaks on the river", and recited it over and over again, shouting its wonders, calling it like a divine stroke. Qian Qi relied on this "Provincial Test Xiangling Drum ser", fought a beautiful turnaround battle, and from then on entered the long-awaited career path, and finally became an official, and because of this poem, he has gained a firm foothold in the poetry world.
Provincial trial Xiangling Drum Ser
Tang Dynasty: Money up
Good drum cloud and Ser, often heard of the emperor's spirit.
Feng Yikong danced by himself, and Chu Ke was unbearable.
Bitter tune miserable golden stone, clear sound into the meditation.
Cang Wu came to complain, and Bai Zhi moved Fangxin.
The flowing water spreads to Xiaopu, and the sad wind passes through the cave court.
Qu finally disappeared, and several peaks on the river were green.
Qian Qi's "Provincial Examination Xiangling Drums", written in the provincial examination room, naturally strictly abides by the requirements of the examination, five words of poetry, six rhymes and twelve sentences, the title, rhyme and system are completely in accordance with the regulations, under the strict can play so well, it can be seen that its foundation is profound.
The title of the exam is "Xiangling Drum ser", which is derived from the poem in Qu Yuan's "Long Journey", "Make the Xiangling Drum squirm, make the Sea Ruo dance Feng Yi", which means that the god of Xiangshui will also come to drum and make the sea god and the river boy dance together to help, this kind of test-taking question is extremely difficult.
Good drum cloud and Ser, often heard of the emperor's spirit. The "emperor" in these two sentences refers to Yao Nu, that is, Shun's wife. "Yunhe" is the name of the mountain. The author starts with a straightforward theme, saying that it is often possible to hear about the divine woman of Xiangshui, who is good at playing clouds and the Ser of this place. The "commonly heard" in these two sentences has a deep meaning, and the author often hears this legend, which can be seen that it is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Feng Yikong danced by himself, and Chu Ke was unbearable. The "Feng Yi" in these two sentences refers to the river god. "Empty", white, in vain. "Chu Ke", a wanderer who lives in Chu Di. The river god Feng Yi danced in the beautiful music, but the wanderer who lived outside was afraid of being too sad to listen. The author of these two sentences is written in the Song of Songs.
Bitter tune miserable golden stone, clear sound into the meditation. The "gold" and "stone" here both refer to musical instruments. "Meditation" refers to a distant place. The author said that such a tragic tune made the originally hard and ruthless golden stone moved, and the cold and high-pitched sound flew all the way to a distant and boundless place. The author of these two sentences is written in the sound of serenity.
Cang Wu came to complain, and Bai Zhi moved Fangxin. "Cangwu" is the name of a mountain, also known as Jiuling, and legend has it that Emperor Shun collapsed here, referring in this poem to the deity of Shun. "Bai Zhi" is a small white flower. These two sentences mean that hearing such a beautiful song, the spirit of Emperor Shun, who rested in peace on the Nine Ridges Mountain, gave birth to a feeling of resentment, and the white zhihua revealed its fragrance. These two poets praise the beautiful music with their rich imagination.
The flowing water spreads to Xiaopu, and the sad wind passes through the cave court. "Xiaopu" here refers to Xiangpu. The author continues to praise the beautiful music with his own imagination, the rushing Xiangshui water spreads the music to both sides of the Xiangpu River, and the sad wind in the long sky sends the music farther beyond the cave court.
Qu finally disappeared, and several peaks on the river were green. The last two sentences are the essence of the whole poem, and they are even more amazing for thousands of years. The author uses "people are not seen" to mean "spirit", and uses "counting peaks on the river" to say the word "Xiang". After the end of the song, the style of the goddess of drums could not be seen, and only the verdant peaks on both sides of the river stood. This ethereal mood, like in a dream, is still unfinished, and seems to be lost, making people think about it, will at some moment, the Xiangshui goddess be heavy and unexpected, and the lingering song will be melodious again...
Qian Qi's "Provincial Test Xiangling Drums" allows us to see that the author can be ranked among the "Ten Talents of the Great Calendar", and it is not worthy of this name, which is like a benchmark model, which is really a good case. Especially in the last two sentences, when the sound of the piano dissipates, the Xiangnu disappears, leaving only the rushing river and the verdant peaks, only sighing, words and endless meaning. As Song Zongyuan said at the end of the Qing Dynasty in the "Tang Shi notes of the Master of Nets Garden", "The song is with people and the ground, and the glue is sticky into the magic." The last two sentences rhyme leisurely. "The immortal name of money is by no means vain.
