The full text of the ancient poem "Recalling Jiangnan"
Bai Juyi's Memory of Jiangnan consists of three words: Jiangnan is good and the scenery is old. When spring comes, the sun rises from the river, the flowers on the river are brighter than red, and the green river is greener than the blue grass. How can we make people not miss Jiangnan? Jiang Nanyi, the most memorable is Hangzhou. Looking for laurel trees in Zhongshan Temple in the month, watching the tide on the pillow in the county pavilion. When will you revisit? Jiang Nanyi, followed by Wu Gong. Wu Yi cup of spring bamboo leaves, Wu Wa dance lotus drunk. Will we meet again sooner or later? These three poems "Memorizing Jiangnan" show us the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan and become well-known masterpieces. However, it is not in place to interpret the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan water town described by the author, which is a good memory of Jiangnan and arouses people's infinite love for the motherland, mountains and beautiful things. We should not only see that this is a masterpiece of scenery writing, but also see the deeper connotation in these three poems. Think about what he's remembering. Bai Juyi served as the secretariat of Hangzhou from the second year of Changqing (AD 822) to the fourth year of Changqing (AD 824), and Bao Liyuan served as the secretariat of Suzhou (AD 825), but only a few months later she returned to Luoyang due to eye diseases. In other words, Bai Juyi spent the longest time in the south of the Yangtze River in Hangzhou. These three words are the memories of Bai Juyi at the age of 67. Bai Juyi is an official in Hangzhou, and the most proud achievement is to control water. An official scholar can benefit the people from what he has learned, which is the best implementation of Bai Juyi's life. Recalling these is the author's greatest comfort. In the three Jiang Nanyi, although the scenery is literally described, the author's pride and pride in governing Jiangnan, especially Hangzhou, is faintly revealed everywhere. As the name implies, the three poems in Yi Jiangnan are "the most unforgettable" and "the second", and they are in order. The first song: "Jiangnan is good, the scenery is always familiar" ranks before "Hangzhou is the most unforgettable". Although it is not said to be "the most unforgettable", its position is already at the top. "Jiangnan is good and the scenery is old." This means that I always think about Jiangnan. The "Jiang" of "Jianghua" here should not be honestly understood as a river or the Yangtze River and Qiantang River. The flower that wins the fire should be lotus, and there are no flowers in the flowing river; Water as green as blue should not be a flowing river, but a lake. This word is actually written about West Lake. Put the memory of the West Lake in the first place and always think about it. Apart from the beauty of the West Lake, the main reason should be to look back at the governance of the West Lake with the people of Hangzhou. Bai Juyi's feelings for the West Lake are often revealed in his poems. When he was in Hangzhou, he led the people to build a lake embankment and store water to irrigate more than 1000 hectares of fields. And dredge the wells in the city for drinking. Up to now, the West Lake has left us many legends about him. If you only miss the flowers redder than fire and the blue water, it will become Jiangnan in the leisure dream, which is Jiangnan for tourists. Bai Juyi's Jiangnan has his seeds and his hard work. This memory of Jiangnan really tastes like harvesting fruit. The second song said "I remember Hangzhou best", but it was placed in the second place, behind the West Lake. "Looking for laurel trees in Yuezhongshan Temple, watching the tide on the pillow in the county pavilion." In fact, this is not a landscape, but actually a person, himself and his spare time after work. Walking on the mountain temple road after official business, enjoying the moon without any burden; Lying on your side with your arms bent in your spare time and watching the tide calmly is a kind of physical rest and psychological relaxation. After this tension, boring people can't enjoy it; This kind of calm after work is something that corrupt officials who scrape the ground three feet will never have. These memories reveal peace, leisure and calmness. This is really a self-appreciation of Hangzhou's appointment. The first song is about the lotus and green water that Jiangnan people are familiar with, the second is about the comfort of the public, and only the third is "Jiang Nanyi", followed by memories of Wu Palace. Wu Yi cup of spring bamboo leaves, Wu Wa dance lotus drunk. Will we meet again sooner or later? "I wrote about Suzhou, wine, singing and dancing, Jiangnan, a real literati poet. However, among the three songs, this one is the most "second", or at least praised. The reason is that it is only entertaining, and there is no real feeling of the first two songs. Bai Juyi worked in Suzhou for only a few months and left because of an eye disease. His idea of continuing his career in Suzhou and Hangzhou failed to come true. When he left Suzhou, the villagers in the county exchanged tears, praising his achievements and personality in Hangzhou, and at the same time being sad that he could not make decisions for the people of Suzhou. Bai Letian was a scholar when he was in his twenties. Since then, he has been in the official position and has experienced ups and downs. Only Hangzhou has the least fetters and the most achievements. He devoted himself to governing the country and leveling the world, and was able to serve as an official for the benefit of one party. In retrospect, the natural harvest is sweet comfort and warmth. Corrupt officials and faint officials who don't make decisions for the people, even if their hearts are as hard as stone, will inevitably feel guilty. They won't have such peaceful and beautiful memories. It's good to write about landscapes and flowers, and you can't write about the Jiangnan feelings like Bai Juyi. Source: Qunwen Tiandi
