Original text:
Jiangxia emissary presented to Shi Langzhong at the uncle's table.
Author: Li Bai
Phoenix is forbidden, and purple mud books are published.
I let Sanxiang go yesterday, and I'm still dying.
Xianlang has been gone for a long time, so the guest asked him something.
When the water dried up, the floating clouds lost their hometown.
It's more costly to be ashamed of China, not the minister.
Re-enter the bamboo forest and start with Yan Fang.
I hope you have wings to melt the grilled fish in the north.
Translation:
In the palace where the emperor lived, Hongyan took out the purple mud imperial edict and recruited me as the imperial edict of Hanlin. I used to be exiled to a remote area in Sanxiang, but now 10 thousand people have died and come back. You have been away from Xianlang for a long time, so don't ask where you live.
The dry arowana missed the vast flowing water and floating clouds and lost its hometown early. Don't alienate me just because I'm a vassal, and you're ashamed to live in your gorgeous mansion. It's like going back to our original gathering of seven sages of bamboo forest, and it's an honor to accompany us to a luxurious guest banquet. I hope you can give birth to wings and make me a giant fish in the north.
