Jade mirror dust, phoenix fragrance is precious. Lazy cicadas comb their temples skillfully, but lazy wisps of clothes practice lightly. I was lonely in Gong Hui, but I meditated on indigo. Plum blossoms fell on the beacon tower, but they were not seen all over Nagato. The situation is that the heart is guilty and the eyes are sad. Warm wind blows gently, and spring birds chirp. Upstairs at dusk, listening to the wind and looking back; Yun Lan dusk, staring at Su Yue. If the hot spring is not there, I will recall the old tour of picking up green; Nagato is very closed, and she believes in Qingluan. Recalling the past, the water is clear, the water is floating, and songs are enjoyed, and banquets are accompanied. Play wonderful dances and love songs, and take a beneficial bird fairy boat. Your feelings are tender, and you are well prepared. Swear to the mountains and seas to stay forever, like the sun and the moon. Why envy color and mediocrity? Take away my love and wealth and put me in a quiet palace. It's hard to miss the old love, and the dream is hazy. Spend time with the moon and evening, shy and lazy spring breeze. If you want to be like each other, you won't be able to work. It's endless sadness. It's already ringing. Empty sigh and cover up, hesitate to step east.
General explanation
The dust of the years is deposited on the bronze mirror inlaid with jade, and the dragon and phoenix treasure chest contains the fragrant Luo Qizhen. I neglected the exquisite jade comb for cutting sideburns and left idle the light white practice of cutting clothes. In the palace of Vanilla Yiyi, I was miserable and lonely, and I was absorbed in meditation on Lanfang Temple. Let plum blossom fall with the wind, how can I meet in a place far away from Nagato? What's more, resentment floats out of the flower heart, and willow leaves are like eyebrows to stir up sadness. Warm wind blows gently, and spring birds chirp. See dusk upstairs, I listen to the soft wind and look back; White clouds greet the sunset, and I stare at Leng Yue alone. Hot springs are hard to come again, and I cherish the amusement of picking up jade feathers in the past; Nagato Palace is deep and closed, so we can only rely on Qingluan, a well-known person, to deliver messages. Think of the clear waves in Laotai liquid pool, and the water surface floats; Wonderful songs and dances, endless rewards, grand banquet, I will accompany you at home. I played the graceful music that made the husband and wife dance together, and took a fairy boat driven by a beneficial bird. The king is deeply attached to me, telling intimate love stories and taking precautions. Swear that love will exist forever like mountains and oceans, and never stop like the sun and the moon. Helpless, Yang Fei gave birth to angry jealousy and angry anger, took away my love and favor, and relegated me to this cold and lonely palace. Old love is hard to recover, and dreams are more obvious in the gloom. How many moonlit nights have I spent? I am ashamed to face the spring breeze. I want to write Long Men Fu like Sima Xiangru, but I'm not good at poetry Fu. The long sadness is still endless, and the morning bell has rung. I had to sigh in vain, cry in sleeves and wander alone in the east of the building.
Writing background
This song Ode to the East of the Building was written by Jiang Caiping, and Jiang Caiping was the concubine of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, namely Mei Fei. In 740, Li Longji occupied Yang Yuhuan, the wife of his son Shouwang, in Lishan Palace, and Jiang Caiping fell out of favor. Ode to the Orient tells the story of Mei Fei's miserable mood in the East Palace of Shang Yang, and expresses her dissatisfaction with the imperial concubine Xuanzong and her yearning for a new life. Mei Fei was defeated by Yang Guifei and defeated by Tang Xuanzong. He has lived alone in Yangdong Palace for more than ten years, and he can't see you. Mei Fei was brilliant and wrote Ode to the East, describing his mood, his loneliness in the cold palace and his yearning for Xuanzong. Jiang Caiping sometimes sourly "protested" Li Longji: Don't go to Wushan, go to Chu Yun, Nangong is a beautiful place for one night. Who can be like the moon with ice muscles and the half king of Meijiang? Your majesty, congratulations on finding a fat beauty. It is said that the origin of this beautiful woman is "complicated", which also shows that you have extraordinary courage. I wish you a happy life. Yang Yuhuan immediately countered with a poem satirizing Jiang Caiping: Has beauty degenerated into spring and plum blossom snow degenerated into halal? Generally, teachers borrow spring grass instead of competing with flowers. Yang Yuhuan made it clear that I am a flower and you are a dog's tail grass. It's human nature to like the new and hate the old? You, Jiang Caiping, are a withered yellow flower. Who are you to argue with me? Therefore, Yang Yuhuan often speaks ill of Jiang Caiping in front of Li Longji. In 746 AD, Jiang Caiping, who was once famous for a time, was banished to Shangyang Palace, where he lived in seclusion for four years, and wrote a poem Ode to the East Building for Li Longji. She accused Li Longji of being soft-hearted and often "obedient" to Yang Yuhuan. Although Jiang Caiping was full of grievances, she didn't speak ill of "rival in love", but put herself and Yang Yuhuan in the same category-both women with bad karma. Since she is a woman with bad karma, she should appreciate each other. Why should she be jealous? Jiang Caiping was missed by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, and once Li Longji enjoyed plum blossoms with all the ministers. Seeing things and thinking about people, Li Longji suddenly remembered Jiang Caiping, but because of Yang Guifei, he sent someone to give her a welcome bead as a reward, and he was no longer summoned. She rejected the emperor's kindness with a poem. Zhu Zhen wrote: Liu Ye's eyebrows have not been traced for a long time, leaving tears in her makeup. Nagato doesn't wash and dress every day, so why use pearls to soothe loneliness! The emperors, Yang Yuhuan and Jiang Caiping, were all disturbed and thrown away.
