"Wind" spiritual outlook, "bone", skeletal form, if you praise a person has style, we know at a glance that it is a positive word meaning, but if it is extended to "wind bone", rather than saying that it is an adjective, noun, it is better to say that it is a pronoun, it represents a period of literary representatives, if the glory of "seven-word poetry" in the Tang Dynasty, then the Wei and Jin period is the brilliant era of "five-word poetry".
(Jian'an Wind Bone)
We all know that Cao Cao, Cao Pi, Cao Zhi three fathers and sons not only occupy important positions, poetic talent endowed with interpretation is also fascinating, nothing else, the widely circulated "seven cloth poems" I believe everyone has heard of it" boiled beans burning beans, all crying in the kettle. Ben is born from the same root, and he is too anxious to fry. "Let's savor, we use the shell of the bean to cook the beans in the pot, the beans grunt in the pot as if people are crying, the beans and the shells were originally one, but we cruelly separated, passively cannibalized. The superficial meaning of this expression alone is touching to the heart, and then extended to the scene at that time, cao zhi is not telling Cao Pi, I was originally a mother and a compatriot with you, but now you want to mutilate your sisters and compatriots for the sake of your children's private feelings and personal interests, if you kill me, won't your own conscience hurt? Will Mom and Dad spare you?
In my opinion, Cao Zhi is smart, he knows that his brother actually did not really want to kill him, even if he wants to kill him, he is afraid of not being able to gamble on the leisurely mouths of the people in the world, and what he has to do at this time is to deepen this hesitation and let his brother give up this idea, and this is also the benefit of the five-word poem, it is more concise and clear, straight to the central idea, the rhetoric is simple, familiar and easy to understand, for Cao Zhi at this time there is no more convenient and more suitable means of communication than this.
Similarly, Cao Pi, Cao Zhi's father Cao Cao in history is not known to be a military man, the conspirator is also a rare big poet, his "old Ji FuTuo, ambition in a thousand miles" has been praised by posterity so far, if Cao Zhi's poems reveal elegance and freedom, from the poems you can feel his style as a prince of The Pin, then I think Cao Cao's poems everywhere reveal his domineering spirit and heart as a powerful person. Later generations understand that he only said that he was a generation of adulterous males, scheming, in fact, in that chaotic season, people sat in their homes, and the pot fell from the sky, if there was no means, I am afraid that I would not have left a little bone that had been eaten by people.
(Cao Cao)
And why do we say that Cao Cao has the world in mind, from his poems, we can see that he is a person who is closely related to the people's livelihood, the people are not enough to eat because of the war, he will order the soldiers to forbid horses to step into the heavens and the earth, once they step in, kill the head and discuss the crime, but never expected that the first person to step on the pit is himself, and he also punished by example. In fact, if you put it in the present, I believe that there will be many people who identify with Cao Cao more than at that time, because in that era when Confucianism was everywhere and any field was eroded by Confucianism, there were very few realist poets like Cao Cao, and in the political environment where everyone was in danger at that time, it was rare for someone like him to have the ability and courage to express his ideals. Just as the first person to eat crab is not the most powerful, the first person to eat crab and survive is really outstanding.
Similarly, later generations also misunderstood him, saying that Cao Cao "blackmailed the Son of Heaven to order the princes", saying that he was a traitor who deceived the world and stole his name, I just want to ask, you Liu Bei said that Cao Cao is not good, you yourself as the emperor's uncle, you do not also take the lead in beating your nephew, so the country is to be handed over to capable people to govern, can not be because of personal origin to personally attack others, although in his identity there are a few people who are those black sheep, but does not mean that the people who sit in the position recognized by everyone are good people, sitting in the position that others do not approve, The opposite is the bad guy.
We can all feel a thing or two from Cao Cao's poems, which is also the historical fact that later generations have speculated from most of the poems that occurred in the dynasty at that time.
The seven sons of Jian'an are: Kong Rong, Chen Lin, Xu Gan and others, they are all literati under Cao Cao's father and son, and the literati generally played a role in praising and disseminating literature in the change of dynasties, they further carried forward the "Five Words Poem" on the basis of the literature of Zhang Heng and Cai Yong, that is, the predecessor of ancient poetry, until the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was widely circulated, especially in the Han Huan Emperor, the Han Ling Emperor period, in fact, it is conceivable that these people are working under Cao Cao, Cao Pi father and son, what kind of literature the Cao family father and son like, They propagate what kind of literature, and they are also the indicators of literature in society.
(Seven sons of Jian'an)
An era will always produce a few literary guides, such as Hu Shi, Lu Xun and other people to advocate vernacular literature during the period of the new democratic revolution, Tang Ming Emperor, Li Bai, Du Fu and other people in the Tang Dynasty to promote Tang poetry, the Song Dynasty has Song Ci, and these famous people in society they act as the founders and propagandists of social culture, what they like, what they write, this dynasty is naturally popular, and with the development of thousands of years, it will gradually become the label of this period.
If the "Five Words Poem" is the main symbol of the "Jian'an Wind Bone", then poetry, rhetoric, prose, and works have become an important part of the Jian'an Wind Bone, and the literature of the Wei and Jin Dynasties was extremely prosperous.
For example, Xu Gan's "Room Thoughts" and Chen Lin's "Drinking Horse Great Wall Cave Tour" are very famous. The talent and style of The Seven Sons of Jian'an in poetry are many periods, and many literati cannot surpass them. This may also be related to the political environment and social conditions at that time, in the dynasty in which he lived, there were five-character poems everywhere, and even the yellow-mouthed children on the street could chant a few words at will, which was tantamount to becoming a part of people's lives.
(Five Words Poem)
When something becomes a part of your life, it can affect the politics, economy, culture, ideology, etc. of the dynasty you are in, just as Japan's patriotism has been carved into their bones, and the United States is a country where the Internet can accomplish some things, such as their president is also successfully defeating political opponents as an Internet celebrity, although it is absurd, but it has to be said that this is a universal law of natural development. Therefore, the five-word poems of the seven sons of Jian'an are so well written, which is inseparable from the environment in which they grew up and the political background in which they grew up.
If the five-word poems are more inclined to political work, then the rhetoric is closer to life, most of their rhetoric is based on a wide range of materials, the practical function is strong, we can also see this as a memorandum of their life, they usually record what happens and what they see around them in the way of rhetoric, and express their opinions and suggestions on it. It's also like writing an argumentative essay today, first state what you see and experience, and then express your opinion. In the era of social turmoil and strife at that time, there must have been a lot of things and experiences available for materials, so during this period, the literary creation rate of the literati will also be greatly improved.
(Cao Cao's short song line)
Kong Rong, Chen Lin's prose is more prominent than the other five people, this may be what we are saying, some people are more emotional, some people are more rational, and most of the articles written by emotional people can make people feel empathy, deep in it, unable to extricate themselves. Go with them to appreciate the truth of the inner middle, and some people are more rational, so they are more suitable for argumentative essays, such as rhetoric, etc., which we can see from Kong Rong let the pear not difficult to see, you think of a five-year-old child can know to give the big pear to the elders, eat the small one, is he born to know? No, but he is good at observation, he grew up seeing adults do this, naturally he also learned, the next time he comes to himself, he will also learn to do it like an adult, and the adults feel that it is still happy to be similar to their own concepts after watching it, so this has nothing to do with education, nor has it to do with traditional virtues, but the ancients used it to numb themselves. Aren't rational people filial piety? No, rational people will distribute the big pears evenly to everyone, everyone also got their own, they do not suffer losses, in fact, is not better? So sensibility and reason can play their greatest role in literature than they do anywhere.
People in the Jian'an period also especially like to collect other people's or their own manuscripts, as the "Collection of Works" released, in fact, this I think there are very marketing means, you want a person is very talented, he can write two good poems a day, but he can not write dozens of hundreds of poems a day, hundreds of works, ah, you every three to five works, it is inevitable that some fans can't stand to wait, to climb other people's walls. In this way, the fame of the poet is greatly reduced, and the influence of the poem will not be very high. At this time, what is the way to produce a collection of works, the average person does not have the time and ability.
Ke Jian'an Seven Sons is a professional to do this, he produced a collection of works in a year and a half, the people bought home enough to read for ten days and a half months, if they can't write it, they can help their good friends sort it out, and they can also work with some unnamed literati to produce a collection of works and name it under their own name. After a hundred years, you can still flow for hundreds of years, you think if your poems are scattered and not included, even if you are famous again, in the literary style, people do not have your works, do not know what you wrote, how to publicize you. It also gives future generations a basis to know you better.
Conclusion: Even the literati and scholars can not avoid the pursuit of power, and even the fresh and unworldly literary style will become vassal and elegant after being soaked in rights, and the literary talent of the seven sons of Jian'an is remarkable, but in the later stage of creation, there is inevitably flattery to the father and son of the Cao family, and the father and son of Cao Cao have their own ideas, but they will also lose themselves in the game of power, but they are still glad that they can leave such positive and meaningful historical works to future generations. Let Jian'an Fengbone shine in the literary world of history.
