Life should be a journey of beauty.
Calm down and read the poem.
【Origin】
"Zhuge Liang in three parts of the world, Liu Bowen in the country and mountains."
This is a word of praise for liu ji, a military master of the Ming Dynasty.
How high Zhuge Liang's status in the hearts of the people does not need to be said, Liu Bowen can be compared with Zhuge Liang, and he can also be called a legendary figure.
Liu Bowen himself is known for his clever calculations and strategic planning, and has a deep folk influence in the entire Asian cultural circle.
However, this article does not discuss his side of the storm, but about his later life and a poem he wrote after he "resigned".
When did Liu Bowen resign?
He was born in 1311 in 1370, and by that year he was 60 years old.
In fact, the term "resignation" does not seem to be very accurate, and the history books record that Hongwu was three years old and Feng Chengbo. The following year it was given.
"Giving home" means that the emperor has allowed him to return to his hometown.
It may be the emperor's grace; it may be a tacit understanding of each other; it may also be the last trace of love between the two sides (refer to Li Bai's gift of gold and return).
After Liu Bowen returned to his hometown, he was very honest, drinking and playing chess every day, and did not mention anything about his former worldly feats. Later, although he was taken away because of the false accusation, it can also be called "the end of life".
After returning to his hometown, he wrote many poems, mostly recording his life and state of mind for the elderly. This song "Resignation and Self-Dispatch" is one of the masterpieces.
【Psalms】
Resigned from the Ming Dynasty / Liu Ji bought a cattle to learn to farm, and the knotted hut was surrounded by forest springs. Incessienne did not last many days, and went to the mountains for a few years. Officials are dreams, and poetry can be drunk. Everything in the world increases in price, and old articles are not valuable.
【Recitation】
Reading Ming and Qing poetry, especially this kind of poetry that writes about one's own life, has a great convenience. That is, the language gap is not large, the threshold is low, and it is easy to understand and feel the artistic beauty of Chinese characters at the same time.
Like this poem, almost the entire vernacular is down, and every sentence can be read. But reading and reading, especially the battle between the jaw and neck, makes us lament the author's profound language skills and the breadth and profundity of the Chinese language.
The title of the poem is "Resignation and Self-Dispatch", and the pen does not drag the mud and water at all, and it comes up to write about his life after resigning.
I bought a cattle cow and was ready to learn to farm; I built a hut of my own, and built it in the forest spring mountain, like an ancient hermit, wandering under the forest spring.
The original text of the poem "buy a scalper", I don't know if everyone read it awkwardly?
It turns out that the cow is still a pole.
Here I don't know whether the ancient quantifier is different from the modern one, or whether Liu Bowen really did not understand the concept of quantifier. Occasionally reading a little such a small mistake can make us feel the "ordinary" side of these historical figures, more flesh and blood.
The last 6 sentences of the poem can be viewed as a whole. The first two sentences explain their intentions, and then they begin to describe their own mental journey.
Recently, I was older, and I knew that I was not far from the time of my departure; so I thought of changing my lifestyle, no longer putting so much pressure on myself, going to the mountains to study the hermit to live like a hermit for a few years, and living a fairy life of "mountain flower winemaking, pine cone sencha".
Whether you are a small official or a big official, in the end it is not all an empty, until you are old and retired, you find that you have lived a lifetime, and what is worth remembering has not been left, and you have lived in vain.
Life, don't think too much about the big, open space, it is enough to live happily and happily.
Noh poetry can drink, is the life of the gods.
The last two sentences of the spit are also interesting:
The country's GDP has been growing, people have money, and things are selling more and more expensive.
There is only one thing that is now beginning to depreciate, and that is the poetry article written by my old man.
【Empty Green Language】
If this last complaint has a deep meaning, I would like to try to interpret it. A family word, discuss with everyone.
The simplest layer is that Liu Bowen really feels that he is old and sighs for his own water flowing years.
A little deeper is to complain about the snobbish eyes in society. Before, in front of the official, I wrote something casually, and those who tended to be inflamed were rushing to raise the price; now that I go home, I have no power, and I immediately "snubbed Kurama in front of the door".
This is also the current situation in the calligraphy and painting industry, who becomes the director or even the chairman of the association, the work immediately appreciates.
The third layer is similar to Liu Yuxi's philosophy of "a thousand sails on the side of the sinking boat, and a thousand wood springs in front of the sick tree". Everything in the world is gradually getting better.
But life is short, it is impossible to always follow the times, one day it will retreat, it will slowly lose its value.
So everything else is appreciating, but it's gradually depreciating. Liu Bowen was sighing at this.
What do you think of the last two sentences of the poem?
