Flowering and blossoming for another year,
These are like fairies.
The tears are shallow,
and the smile is all sad.
A few pieces of the heart of the world with the ancient,
Wind and Hua two sleeves Xu sink or swim.
The green leaves and red flowers of the present day,
The frost of several years is full of China.
Turned into spring mud to comfort the fragrance of flowers
Not stained with the fading of the blue blankets
Love rain asked the window into the painting
One note of poetry and dreams of whoever is hurt

Huo Xiaoyu biography
Daliyi years, Longxi there is a scholar called Li Yi, twenty years old, passed the examination of the jinshi. In his second year, he took the Diocesan examination and waited for the Ministry of Revenue to preside over the re-examination. June summer, arrived in Chang'an, lodging in Xinchangli. Li Yi's family was noble, and he had talent when he was young. His beautiful words and sentences were said to be unparalleled; his predecessors and elders all admired him. He often boasted of his talent and hoped to get a good match. He went around looking for a famous prostitute, but was not able to fulfill his wish for a long time. Chang'an has a matchmaker called Bao eleven sister, is the former Xue extra horse harnessed by the side of a team of the emperor's side of the family's maidservant, ransomed for marriage, has been more than ten years. She was flexible and good-natured, and she was very good at talking. The rich and powerful royal relatives of the residence, there is no place not to have gone to inquire about information, advice, people have pushed her to be the leader. She was often entrusted with Li Yi's sincere and generous gifts, and her heart was very grateful to him.
A few months later, Li Yi was living in the south pavilion of his house. Around afternoon, he suddenly heard a sharp knock on the door, and the servant said that it was Bao Xi-niang's arrival. Li Yi lifted up his clothes and ran out with them, welcoming them and asking, "Why did Bao's mother suddenly come today? Mrs. Bao smiled and said, "Have you had a good dream, Auntie Su? There is an immortal who is banished from the earth and does not pursue wealth, but only adores the flirtatious characters. A character like this is a perfect match for you, Shilang." Li Yi was surprised and enthusiastic when he heard about it, his spirit soared, his body was light and airy, and he took Bao Eleven Niang's hand while worshipping and thanking him, saying, "I will be your slave for the rest of my life, and I am not afraid of death.
So she asked her name and place of residence. Bao said in detail, "She is the youngest daughter of the former King of Huo, her name is Xiaoyu, and the King of Huo loved her very much. Her mother's name is Jingzhi. -Her mother's name is Jing Zhi. Jing Zhi was the servant girl favored by King Huo. When King Huo died, his brothers were reluctant to take her in because she was born of a lowly person. So they gave her some assets and told her to live outside, changing her name to Zheng, and people didn't know she was the daughter of King Huo. She is so beautiful that I have never seen such a beautiful person in my life; she is elegant and graceful, and her demeanor is more elegant than others; she is proficient in music, poetry, and books. Some time ago, she asked me to look for a good husband, whose character and mood should be commensurate. I introduced Shilang in detail. She also knew the name of Li Shilang and was very pleased. Her family lives in Guji Lane of Shengyefang, and the mansion with a car door at the entrance of the lane is her home. Already made an appointment with her, tomorrow at noon, just go to the entrance of the alley and find a maidservant named Gui Zi. After Bao Eleven Niang left. Li Yi prepared a plan to go there. So he sent his houseboy, Qiu Hong, to borrow a green and black pony and a golden bridle from his cousin, Seneschal Shang Gong of Jingzhao. At night, Li Yi changed his clothes, bathed and groomed his appearance, and was so happy that he danced and danced, and could not sleep the whole night. Daybreak, put on the headscarf, took a mirror to look, I'm afraid it's not suitable. Between hesitation, has reached noon. He ordered his horse to gallop to Sheng Ye Fang. When I arrived at the appointment place, I really saw a maid standing and waiting, greeted me and asked, "Could it be Li Shilang? Li Yi immediately dismounted his horse, let her lead him into the house, and then hurriedly locked the door. When he saw that Bao XI Niang did come out from inside, he smiled from afar and said, "What kind of a boy is he to venture here? Before Li Yi could finish his joking words, he was introduced into the center door. There were four cherry trees in the courtyard, and a parrot cage hung in the northwest corner. When he saw Li Yi coming in, he said, "Someone is coming in, put down the curtain quickly! Li Yi was originally a quiet and elegant nature, his heart was still in fear, suddenly heard the bird talking, so surprised that he did not dare to go forward. He was hesitant, but Bao XI Niang had already led Jingsheng down the steps to meet him. When they entered the house, they sat down opposite each other. She was about forty years old, elegant and graceful, with a charming smile. She then said to Li Yi, "I have always heard that Shilang is a talented and elegant man, and now I see that he is really as good as his name suggests. I have a daughter, although she lacks lessons, but her appearance is not ugly, if she can be matched with Mr. Lang, it would be a good match. Bao XI Niang has repeatedly received your thoughts, so let her serve you forever today." Li Yi replied, "I am clumsy and mediocre, but I have never thought that I would be honored by you, and if I am accepted, I would be honored in life and in death. So he ordered a banquet to be served, and then asked Huo Xiaoyu to come out from the boudoir on the east side of the hall. Li Yi hastened to rise and greet her. At once he felt that the whole hall was like a forest of jade trees. They were shining on each other, and their eyes were turning radiantly. Then she sat down beside her mother. My mother said to her, "The poem you often like to recite, 'The wind moves the bamboo when the curtains are open, and it is suspected that an old friend has come,' is a poem by this Li Shilang. How can you compare the poem to a meeting with him?
However, Huo Xiaoyu lowered her head and smiled, saying softly, "A meeting is not as good as a reputation. How can a talented man not have a beautiful face." Li Yi then stood up and bowed down. Li Yi then stood up and bowed down. He said: "The young lady loves talent, and I value beauty. Both of our hobbies reflect each other, so we have both talent and beauty." The mother and daughter smiled at each other and raised their cups for a few times. Li Yi got up and asked Huo Xiaoyu to sing. At first she refused to do so, but only after her mother forced her to sing again and again did she agree, with a clear voice and an exquisite tune. When the banquet was over and it was already dark, Bao XI Niang guided Li Yi to the west courtyard to rest in peace. The quiet courtyard is a deep house with magnificent curtains and tents. Eleven-Mother Bao had her young maids Gui Zi and Ruansha take off Li Yi's boots and unbuckle his belt. Not long after, Huo Xiaoyu arrived, her speech gentle and smooth, her manner charming. When she took off her robe, her body was even more beautiful, and when she put down the tent and kissed each other on the pillow, she was extremely affectionate. Li Yi thinks that the Wushan Goddess mentioned by Song Yu and the Luoshui Goddess encountered by Cao Zhi will not be surpassed. In the middle of the night, Huo Xiaoyu suddenly looked at Li Yi with tears in her eyes and said, "I am originally from a whore's family, and I know that I can't be a match for you. Now I am loved by you because of my beauty and entrusted to a benevolent gentleman, but I am afraid that once I grow old and lose my color, my kindness will be transferred to decline. I will be like a female Luo without a tree to lean on, and like an autumn fan I will be abandoned. When the joy is at its peak, I can't help but feel sad." Li Yi listened to her words and sighed. So he stretched out his arm for her to rest on, and slowly said to Huo Xiaoyu, "The wish of my life has been realized today, and even if I am torn to pieces, I swear that I will never leave you behind. I swear I will never leave you, even if my bones are torn to pieces." Why did the lady say these words? Please take out the white silk, and I will write the covenant." Huo Xiaoyu then stopped her tears and asked her servant girl Cherry to pick up the tent and take the candles, handing Li Yi a pen and inkstone. Huo Xiaoyu was very fond of poetry and books after blowing Zen, and the brushes and inkstones in the basket and chest were all old things from the Huo Wang family. She took out a pocket of brocade rust and took out a three-foot white silk with black silk lattice woven by a woman of Yuezhi and gave it to Li Yi. Li Yi has always been rich in talent, took the pen to write into the text, quoting the mountains and rivers as a metaphor, pointing to the sun and moon to show sincerity, sentence by sentence earnest, listening to these words is very touching. When she finished writing, she put it in a treasure box. From then on, they loved each other as if they were emerald birds in the clouds. This way for two years, day and night. In the spring of the following year, Li Yi was awarded the official position of Zheng County's chief book because of the book judgment. In April, will go to the office, by then to the eastern capital of Luoyang to visit relatives to report the good news. Many of his relatives in Chang'an came to give a farewell banquet. At that time, the spring scenery has not yet been exhausted, the summer scenery is beginning to shine, the end of the banquet guests dispersed, the feelings of parting lingered in the chest. Huo Xiaoyu said to Li Yi, "With your talent and reputation, you are admired by many people, and those who are willing to marry you must be many. Besides, you have a strict double hajj in the hall, and there is no proper wife in the room, so you must go home this time to conclude a happy marriage. The words of the original covenant are but empty words. However, I have a small wish which I would like to state in person at once, and wish it to be remembered in your heart forever; I wonder if you can still listen to it?" Li Yi was surprised and said, "What sin have I committed that you should suddenly say these words? If you have something to say, then say it, and I will certainly keep it in my heart." Huo Xiaoyu said, "I am eighteen years old, and my husband is only twenty-two, so there are still eight years left before you reach thirty. I hope to enjoy all the joys of a lifetime of love within this period of time. Then it is not too late for you to choose a famous family and make a marriage between Qin and Jin. I will abandon the affairs of the world, cut off my hair and put on black clothes, and my past wishes will be fulfilled by then.'' Li Yi was so ashamed and touched that he could not help but shed tears, so he said to Huo Xiaoyu, "I have sworn to heaven that I will keep my promise no matter if I live or die. I have sworn to heaven that I will keep my promise no matter if I live or die. I am afraid that I will not be able to fulfill my life's desire to live with you until the end of my life, so how can I dare to have "one heart and two minds. Please don't be suspicious and just wait for me at home. In August, I will return to Huazhou and send someone to fetch you, and the day of meeting will not be far away." After a few more days, Li Yi took his leave and went east.
Ten days after taking office, Li Yi took leave to go to Luoyang, the eastern capital, to visit his relatives. Before he arrived home, Mrs. Li was already negotiating with his cousin Lu, and the marriage contract had already been finalized. Mrs. Lu has always been strict and stubborn, Li Yi hesitates and dares not push the matter, so he went to pay his respects and thanked her, and then agreed to get married in the near future. The Lu family is also a famous family, marrying a daughter to his family, the bride price must be set at one million dollars, less than this number, as a rule, it can not be done. Li Yi's family has always been poor, to do this must be borrowed, so he found an excuse to take leave, to go to a distant place to join relatives and friends, across the Yangtze River, the Huaihe River, from the fall to the summer. Li Yi, because he had reneged on the covenant and delayed the deadline for going back for a long time, did not bring any news to Xiaoyu, so he wanted to cut off her hope, and entrusted his relatives and friends to keep this matter from being disclosed. Huo Xiaoyu since Li Yi overdue, repeatedly inquired about information. She has been trying to find out more about Li Yi, and has been trying to find out more about him. She widely seek sorcerers, visit the people of divination, inner hate, more than a year. Xiaoyu emaciated thin alone lying in an empty chamber, melancholy into a disease. Although Li Yi's letters completely cut off, but Huo Xiaoyu's longing hope is always the same, send money to relatives and friends, let them tell the news. The search is so urgent, the money is empty many times, often secretly let the maid secretly go to sell the clothes and treasures in the box, most sold to the West City consignment store in the Hou Jingxian family. Once let the servant girl Ruansa took a purple jade hairpin, to Hou Jingxian home to sell.
On the way, he met an old royal jade worker, who saw the hairpin and recognized it, saying, "I made this hairpin. When King Huo's youngest daughter was about to have her hair ringed for maturity, he asked me to make this hairpin and paid me 10,000 wen. I have never forgotten it. Who are you and where did you get it?" Ruansha said, "My young lady is the daughter of King Huo. Her family is in decline and she married someone else. Her husband went to Dongdu some time ago, and there is no news of him anymore. She has been depressed and sick for almost two years now. She asked me to sell it and give the money to others, asking them to inquire about her son-in-law." The jade worker wept sadly and said, "The children of a prominent noble family have fallen into such a state of despair and lost their chance: I am about to reach the end of my remaining years, and I can't help but be saddened to see such a change in the prosperity and decline of the family. So he took her to the residence of Princess Yan Guang and told her about this matter in detail. The princess also lamented for a long time and gave her 120,000 wen. At this time, Li Yi's betrothed, a girl surnamed Lu, was in Chang'an, and Li Yi had already gathered enough money for the marriage, and returned to Zheng County. This year, the waxing moon, and took leave of absence into the capital to marry. Secretly find a quiet residence, do not let others know. There is a person named Cui Yunming who has passed the Mingjing Section, is Li Yi's cousin. Very generous, some years ago often and Li Yi together in Xiaoyu family reunion, eat and drink talk and laugh, each other close. Every time you get a message from Li Yi, you must honestly tell Xiaoyu. She used to help him with some firewood and clothes. Cui Yunming was very grateful to her. Li Yi has arrived in the capital, Cui Yunming told Xiao Yu originally. The first time I saw her, she sighed with resentment and said, "How can there be such a thing in the world? She invited all her friends and relatives and tried every means to call Li Yi to come. Li Yi thought he had violated the covenant by delaying his return, and was ashamed to learn that Xiaoyu was seriously ill, so he was heartless and refused to go. He went out early and came back late, trying to avoid it. Xiaoyu cried day and night, sleep and food, want to see Li Yi one side, but did not have any opportunity. She wanted to see Li Yi, but she had no chance. Her grief and anguish grew deeper and deeper. She fell sick in bed. At this time, some people in Chang'an city gradually knew about this matter. The people and heroes and chivalrous, all sigh Huo Xiaoyu's amorous, hate Li Yi's thin luck. It was March, and most of the people went out for a spring trip. Li Yi and five or six of his companions went to the Sounkyo Temple to admire the flowers of Dudan, strolling along the west corridor, and reciting poems one after another. Wei Xiaqing, a native of Jingzhao and a close friend of Li Yi, was also there at this time. He said to Li Yi, "The scenery is very beautiful, and the grass and trees are flourishing. Pity the poor girl of the Zheng family, who has been wronged and left alone! The footman is really a heartless man who would abandon her.
The heart of a great man should not be like this. You should think of her!
While he was sighing and reproaching, suddenly there was a man of honor, wearing a lavender linen shirt, holding a bow, elegant and graceful, and wearing an easy and gorgeous costume, with only a small child of the Hu tribe who had cut his hair into short hairs following behind him, secretly following them and listening to them talk. After a while, he went up to Li Yi and bowed to him, saying: "Aren't you called Li Shilang? My family is originally from Shandong, and I am related by marriage to a foreign relative. Although I don't have any literary talent, but I always like the wise and capable people in my heart. I admire your reputation and often want to meet you. Today, I am fortunate to be able to bet on the style. My humble abode is not far from here, and I have a band of courtesans to entertain me. I have 8 or 9 beautiful women and more than 10 horses, so you can have fun as you like. I only wish you would come here once. When Li Yi and his men heard this, they sighed and praised each other. So they rode along with this hero, and soon bypassed a couple of houses and arrived at the Shengye House. Li Yi did not want to go there because of the proximity of Huo Xiaoyu's residence, so he excused himself and wanted to go back to his horse. The heroine said, "My place is so close, can I be so cruel as to leave it behind? He took Li Yi's horse and dragged him forward. As they dragged on, they reached the alley where the Zheng family lived. Li Yi was in a trance and whipped his horse to go back. The hero immediately ordered his servants to carry him forward. He quickly stepped forward and pushed Li Yi into the carriage door of the mansion, then had the door locked and informed, "Li Shilang has arrived! Huo Xiaoyu's entire family is surprised and delighted, and the sound carries to the outside. On the night before this day, Huo Xiaoyu dreamed that the man in the purple shirt came holding Li Yi, came to the bed, and told Xiaoyu to take off her shoes. She woke up with a start and told her mother. And explained herself, "The shoes are also harmonizing. It means that husband and wife are going to meet again. The one who takes off shoes is also the one who unravels. To part again after having already met is to say goodbye forever. From this sign. We must meet soon, and after that, I am going to die." Early in the morning, she asked her mother to dress her. Her mother, thinking that she was too sick and disoriented to believe this, reluctantly dressed her for a while while she struggled to hold herself together. She had just finished her dressing. Li Yi did come. Huo Xiaoyu has been sick for a long time, and she needs help to turn around; she suddenly said that Li Yi was coming, and she got up quickly, changed her clothes and went out, as if she had the help of God. So he met with Li Yi and stared angrily at him and said no more. Feeble physique delicate, as if unable to support the appearance, with the sleeve again and again to cover the face, look back at Li Yi. Feelings hurt, the four seats sob more than. Soon, there are dozens of plates of food and wine, brought in from outside. In the seat of the people are eaten overly look at, busy asking the reason, it turns out that these are the hero sent. So they set up and sat down close to each other. Huo Xiaoyu turned her body sideways and looked at Li Yi for a long time, then raised a glass of wine and poured it on the ground, saying: "I am a woman, and my life is so thin. You are a great man, but you are so heartless. I pity my beautiful face and my young age, but I died with a lot of grievances. My mother is still in the hall, and I can't provide for her. The silk and satin, the silk and bamboo, the strings and the music, from now on are also left behind forever. I'm going to the Yellow Springs with pain. You caused this. Li Jun, Li Jun, today is the day we say goodbye forever! After I die, I will turn into a ghost and make your concubines have no peace all day long!"
When he finished speaking, he stretched out his left hand to hold Li Yi's arm, threw the wine cup on the ground, cried loudly and painfully for several times, and then died. Xiaoyu's mother lifted the body and put it into Li Yi's arms, asking him to call out to her, but Xiaoyu could not wake up anymore. Li Yi dressed her in white mourning clothes and wept sadly from morning to night. On the first night of the burial, Li Yi suddenly saw Huo Xiaoyu in the spirit tent, looking beautiful, as when she was alive. She was wearing a pomegranate skirt, a purple robe, and a red and green shawl. Leaning against the tent, holding an embroidered belt in her hand, she looked at Li Yi and said: "I am ashamed to have been sent off by you, but I still have unfinished feelings. I am in the netherworld, how can I not sigh. When he finished speaking, he disappeared. On the next day, he was buried in Chang'an, in the old town. Li Yi went to the cemetery and cried bitterly before going back. A month later, Li Yi and Lu got married. He was saddened by the sight of the deceased and was depressed. In the summer of May, Li Yi and Lu returned to Zheng County together. To the county after ten days, Li Yi and Lu's sleep, suddenly outside the tent there is a muttering sound. Li Yi was surprised to see a man in his twenties, with a gentle and beautiful demeanor, and his hiding figure was reflected on the tent, waving to Lu's. Li Yi was shocked and quickly got up. Li Yi alarmed quickly get up, look around the tent several times, but the figure suddenly disappeared. Li Yi since then heart 懁 doubt and monk evil. Suspicions, husband and wife, conflicts arose. Some relatives persuade, Li Yi's suspicion of the heart to slowly calm down. After ten days or so. Li Yi and back from the outside, Lu is on the bed Zen Qin, suddenly saw from the door throw a colorful inlaid rhinoceros horn box, more than an inch square, the middle of the bundle of light silk, tied into concentric knots, fell in Lu's arms. Li Yi opened it and saw that there were two red beans indicating lovesickness, one kowtow calabash, one hair slaying blather, and a small amount of donkey colt Mei. Li Yi immediately angry roar, voice like jackals and tigers, seized the qin smashed his wife, questioned and ordered her to tell the truth. Lu how to say also can not explain clearly. Since then, Li Yi often roughly whipped his wife, all kinds of abuse, and finally the lawsuit to the public court to put her repudiation. After Lu's departure, Li Yi sometimes with concubines and other people, accidentally in the same room once, it increased the jealousy of their suspicions, and so was killed. Li Yi had traveled to Guangling, got a famous concubine called Ying eleven, appearance and physique YuRunZhuMei, Li Yi very much like her. Whenever he sat down, he said to Ying XI Niang, "I have got a certain woman somewhere, she violated a certain thing, I used a certain way to kill her. Every day, he said this to make Ying 11th Niang afraid of him, so as to clear the room of debauchery. When he went out, he used the bathtub to put Ying XI Niang upside down on the bed, and put a seal around her, and he must check it in detail when he went home before he opened it. He also prepared a short sword, very sharp, he looked at it and said to his servant girl, "This is the steel produced by Gexi in Xinzhou, specializing in cutting off the heads of those who have committed crimes!

[Edit Paragraph]Related Reviews
The love tragedy between Huo Xiaoyu and Li Yi is precisely the blood and tears of the woman of the world. Li Yi's heartlessness and lack of love and righteousness is certainly disgusting, but the root cause of the tragedy of the feudal warlord system is even more detestable.
Criticism of Li Yi's heartlessness, lies in his inconsistent attitude towards feelings, lies in his escape to respond to the infatuation of Xiaoyu, this love, Li Yi could have chosen a more euphemistic way to end, Xiaoyu is not a love dizzy, can not see the reality of the woman, if not, she would not have proposed to Li Yi **** degree of eight years of desire; said Li Yi heartlessness, because he is Xiaoyu such a humble hope! Li Yi is not incapable of realizing such a humble wish for Xiaoyu, as can be seen from the fact that he married the courtesan Ying Xi-niang afterward, and it makes no sense that he can marry back Ying Xi-niang, but cannot accompany Xiaoyu for eight years!
This love story also reveals a sad human weakness: it is easy to get, but not hard to give up! Li Yi to Xiaoyu, in the scales of love, there is an absolute advantage, his greed for beauty, prompting him in the moment and Xiaoyu vowed alliance, sketched out an old age, till death do us part of the vision of love; but things have changed, the oath is just like a dream. Maybe we can't deny that Li Yi still has some sincerity when he says those sweet words, but Huo Xiaoyu's love for him, a lowly prostitute, is too easy to get, and it's still possible to meet and play with love in a happy place, and how hard it is to part with each other between the two of them, and how hard it is to get along with each other, and put it on the scale of reality, and it's hard to get into the grand hall of fame after all.
A songstress, not worth having a great future of their own stop, even if Xiaoyu desire, only eight years together. The fact that Li Yi has taken such a hurtful and evasive attitude towards Xiaoyu is also due to the fact that he is already tired of this game of love, and he will always be tired of the beauty that he has tasted, and Xiaoyu is only a plaything for him. Coupled with Li Yi's personality, greed and lust outside, weak and opinionless, once you must face the social reality, naturally succumbed to the gate system and social vision; and view Li Yi was forced to bring in front of Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu's tears of tears, readers seem to be moved, heartbroken tearful lament, but Li Yi's reaction is still very insensitive, written here Li Yi's callousness is pushed to the next level.
Tang Dynasty society, there are many fake high family background, used to raise the price of prostitutes, Huo Xiaoyu is one of them. She was born beautiful and elegant, the qualification is very beautiful, and has the talent of understanding poetry and books, so Xiaoyu, although she knows that her status is low, still adore the talent; but this does not mean that she has forgotten the reality of the gate system, she is a humble songstress, it is not possible to be with the talent for a long time, so she has sprouted that seems to be more likely to achieve the wish; unexpectedly the fact that the blow is really not what she could have imagined, the voice of the sound of Li Lang's departure, how a farewell into a watery grave? The first time I saw him, I was so happy to see him, and I was so happy to see him, and I was so happy to see him.
The longing for love tormented such a stubborn, persistent, passionate and courageous woman, Xiaoyu's untimely death was inevitable, but also Li Yi's unintentional catalyst. The society sends infinite sympathy to Xiao Yu and rebukes Li Yi's heartlessness, in which the appearance of Huang Sanker, a powerful man, adds a touch of romance to this article; Huang Sanker can be called the embodiment of social opinion and the hope of the people.
The biggest failure of this article lies in the revenge of Xiaoyu's death. Jade's revenge, even if it succeeded in punishing Li Yi himself, but also suffered a number of innocent women, in the end, Jade's revenge in the end is the jealousy of Li Yi? In the end, is Jade taking revenge on Li Yi, who is a jealous woman, or on Li Yi's wife, who is also a woman? The latter is really so innocent and poor ah! Her retaliation ultimately harmed women of different classes who were oppressed by their husbands' power, not Li Yi.
The portrayal of Huo Xiaoyu is quite successful, and her confession to Li Yi makes my heart palpitate every time I read it; Li Yi ends up with the name of a jealous fool and cannot rest in peace, and all these consequences can be said to be his own fault, self-inflicted, and not worthy of sympathy; the character of Huang Sugenke is really coincidental and novel, which makes people applaud and applaud when reading it.
"Huo Xiaoyu biography" is a mirror of the life of literati prostitutes. The Tang Dynasty was lighter than the Song and Yuan Dynasties, and it was common for officials and scholars to be intimate with prostitutes. There were many prostitutes in the Tang Dynasty, especially the geisha, which was the most characteristic and could not be seen as obscene. But at that time, the gate system is strict, after all, geisha is the lowest level of society, the defilement of women, in the interaction with the scholar, even if there is true love, but also for the tragedy of the end. Huo Xiaoyu was a victim of the feudal system.
Huo Xiaoyu was originally the youngest daughter of King Huo, and was exiled from the church because of her concubine's birth. She is beautiful, pure, quick-witted, intelligent, daring to love and hate, extremely insightful, and even more strongly rebellious character. When she first met Li Yi, she "smiled, whispered, and refused" and "spoke gently and charmingly. Unrobe the occasion, the state of the remaining Yan, low apartment intimately pillow, very much love", can be seen in its gentle and skillful, delicate and beautiful unparalleled. Jade in the entertainment still maintains a clear mind, "sniveling at the student said 'extremely happy occasion, do not feel sad to'", revealing her inner misery. When Li Yi resigned, Xiaoyu has an ominous premonition; Li Yi went without news, she became ill with anxiety, bed and pillow; yellow-shirt guest angrily hostage Li Yi to, Xiaoyu "threw the cup on the ground, long mournful number of voices and end". This shows the depth of her love, love of specialization. Although Xiaoyu is a ghost, but to Li Yi to punish, more to see her brave and strong, love and hate side.
Li Yi was born a noble man, rich in talent, but vulgar and selfish, vain and insubstantial. He "boasts of his style, thinking of a good match, and seeks for famous prostitutes"; when he meets Xiaoyu, "he heard of the jump, God fly body light", "wash clothes and bath, grooming, happy to jump together, and through the night sleepless"; When I first saw Xiaoyu, I felt that "if the jeweled forests and jade trees, shining each other", "I thought that Wushan and Lopu were nothing but", and I heard that the sadness of Xiaoyu's life was "to break my bones and vow not to part with them"; when we parted "and shame and feeling"; however, in the proposal to marry Lu's but "balked and dare not resign", to Xiaoyu "want to break its hope, remote relatives, not send leakage of words. He is emotionally broken and weak, submissive mother's order, the feudal system dare not have half resistance, to take the attitude of procrastination and muddle, reneging on the alliance, desperate and unsympathetic, failing a piece of love Xiaoyu. Li Yi's thin behavior provoked the anger of the crowd, and he was held by the slaves of the powerful soldiers, reprimanded by Xiaoyu, and retaliated by Xiaoyu's ghost, which were all his own fault. Li Yi's betrayal of trust and justice had its own social reasons, and exposing the decadence and darkness of the feudal gate system is precisely the reason why The Legend of Huo Xiaoyu has been passed down through the ages.
The storyline of Huo Xiaoyu is complete, the description is delicate, and the writing method of baking, contrasting, and mirroring is used in many places, especially the psychological portrayal is very successful, with a strong and vivid interest. The characters of Huo Xiaoyu and Li Yi are distinctive and vivid, typical representatives of geisha and the sons of prominent families. Even the chivalrous and matchmaking images of Bao XI Niang and Yellow Shirt are very realistic, and in just a few words, they leap off the page, fully demonstrating the artistic charm of Tang legends. As for the idealistic thinking reflected in the theory of transforming ghosts, we can't be harsh on the ancients
After the news of Huo Xiaoyu's death, some people in the streets of Chang'an circulated the following poem:
A generation of famous flowers is paid off, the infatuation is wasted on poets;
What if you marry the yellow-shirted guest, the white horse in the countryside **** trekking on the spring.

Eileen Chang:
Famous Shanghai Bund, the legend of untainted red dust and scorched fire

Reading in itself can give a person who reads a book a great deal of pleasure, but it can also give the person who reads a book a great deal of satisfaction. alone can give great pleasure to the one who reads. The pleasure of reading is only available to her, at least to me. You may be able to read other books to know the truth, to understand the knowledge, to get shocked, but only by reading Zhang Eileen's articles you are happy.

Eileen Chang is secular, but secular so exquisite but in addition to no one else can be compared. Read her work and you'll find that her view of the joys of life is truly marvelous!
The character of Eileen Chang gathers a lot of contradictions: she is a hedonist who is good at living art and living art, and a person who is full of tragedy to life; she is a famous family, a lady of the noble family, but she proudly proclaims that she is a self-supporting citizen; she is sad and compassionate, and she can see the "ridiculousness" behind the "ridiculousness" of the multitudes of people. She is sad and compassionate, sometimes insight into the masses of "ridiculous" behind the "poor", but the actual life is cold and unsympathetic; she is well versed in the ways of the world, but she herself, whether to treat people dressed in my own way, the only standard of solitude. In her articles, she talked with her readers, but she always kept a distance, not letting outsiders peep into her heart; she was a big hit in Shanghai in the 1940s, and she had a great time, but decades later, she was living in the United States and living in isolation, so much so that some people said: "Only Eileen Chang can withstand the brilliant and dazzling clamor and extreme loneliness at the same time.
