We interpret this joy today as Zhao and Li's infinite contempt for the invaders of the Kingdom of Jin. Jin soldiers besieged Bianjing, and the couple rushed to Qingzhou, looking at the cultural relics piled up in more than a dozen houses, worried.Li Qingzhao said in "The Preface to the Record of Gold and Stones": "When I heard that the gold bandits had violated the capital, I looked around in a daze, with boxes overflowing, and I fell in love with it, and felt sad, knowing that it must not be my own." Twenty years of hard work will be destroyed in one day.Some treasures were handed down by Zhao Tingzhi to Zhao Mingcheng.Personal loss is a small matter, but the motherland's loss of precious cultural relics is a major matter.

Li Qingzhao's fear of the future was soon verified, and the nightmare came into broad daylight. In the spring of 1126, Zhao Mingcheng's mother died in Jinling. He took fifteen carts of cultural relics to Jinling. Li Qingzhao stayed in Qingzhou temporarily, guarding more than ten "books and objects".They are used to a peaceful life, "How often have you ever known war?" They are ignorant of the monster war.Read poetry and books, but how can there be swords and swords in the books?The battle was getting tighter day by day, and Li Qingzhao was terrified.The sisters in Qingzhou have gone their separate ways.At the end of the year, the Jin soldiers captured Qingzhou, and the troops who entered the city first were afraid that the follow-up troops would take advantage of it, and the bestiality would be rampant, plundering, killing and raping.Li Qingzhao got involved in the fleeing crowd.

The golden man ruined her beautiful home.More than ten cultural relics were burned to ashes. It was already the early spring of Song Gaozong Jianyan's second year (1128) when she fled thousands of miles and went to Jinling.Zhao Mingcheng was the prefect of Jiangning at that time.But when they reunited, the couple hugged each other and cried.Li Qingzhao was in shock, and lived in the high-walled courtyard of Jiangning Mansion. The days of the dame are back. Relying on the natural danger of the Yangtze River, Jinling City seems foolproof.This famous city is still prosperous.Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou stayed in Jinling and changed Jiangning Mansion to Jiankang Mansion.

The emperor never forgot to cede land and ask for peace.High officials still have fun. This year's Shangsi Festival, many relatives of Zhao Mingcheng gathered in Jiankang, and Li Qingzhao's younger brother Li Hui also came from other places.The Zhao Mansion held a grand banquet, singing and dancing to celebrate the festive season, but they forced a smile on their face.The wine is scattered, and the poet has no sleep.The sad Li Qingzhao wrote "Butterfly Loves Flowers": Yongye is sleepy and has little joy.Empty dream of Chang'an, recognize the way of Chang'an.In order to repay the good spring this year, the flowers, the moon and the shadows should be photographed together...

Chang'an refers to the occupied North China. After more than a year, Li Qingzhao lived a quiet life.The feud between the country and the family is slowly implanting into her skin and flowing into her blood.It will be several years later that desolate Li Qingzhao will come to meet us face to face.The room is still elegant and luxurious.Her decades of self-cultivation and survival attitude are in this direction.The roots are deep, the turning has a process, and it is driven by inner strength.Fighting is a matter for men, and it is impossible for her to study military affairs. From the early spring of 1128 to the winter of the next year, Li Qingzhao wrote poems in Jiankang City with great energy.Zhou Hui of the Song Dynasty said: "When I saw the people of Yi'an tribe, I said that Mingcheng was on the day of Jiankang. Whenever Yi'an was in heavy snow, he would put on a hat and put on a cape. Looking for poems from a distance, he would invite his husband Genghe when he got a sentence. Mingcheng always It's bitter."

Li Qingzhao wears a hat and cloak and walks in the snow to search for poems. The classic scene is reminiscent of: "The world of glass is white with snow and red plums, and the girl with makeup and powder cuts the fishy smell." The sky is full of snow, and poetry is indispensable.It's only Zhao Mingcheng who suffers. He can't win his wife in poetry and writing, but he has to sing. Li Qingzhao has entered a demonic realm: The rascal poet faints at dawn, walks around fences and leans on stones to sink his voice... Sometimes when it snowed heavily, Li Qingzhao packed up the snow equipment and walked on the front foot, while Zhao Mingcheng disappeared on the back foot.He was exhausted, and when he heard the poem, he was a little scared and hid.

Li Qingzhao returned home with a full load, looking for him everywhere... In spring, she locked the heavy door and played with Ouyang Xiu, and got a wonderful poem "Linjiang Fairy": How deep is the courtyard, and the cloud window and fog pavilion are often closed.Willow shoots and plum calyx gradually become clear.Spring returns to moling trees, and old people build Kangcheng.There are so many things I feel about the wind and the moon, but now I am old and nothing will happen.Who pity haggard more withered.It's boring to test the lamp, and I'm not in the mood to step on the snow.

The beauty is dying.Li Yi'an began to talk about old age at the age of forty-five, many years later than many great male poets. Du Fu, Su Shi, and Xin Qiji all talked about old age when they were in their thirties.This poem was written after the Lantern Festival in the third year of Jianyan.Zhao Mingcheng admired it very much and recommended it to guests frequently, but when Li Qingzhao asked him to go with Shang Yique, he waved his hands again and again, saying he didn't dare. In order to avoid writing poems, Zhao Mingcheng also has a catchphrase: "Layman Yi'an is comparable to Layman Dongpo. If Zhao is not talented, how dare he dare."

Because of this mantra, Li Qingzhao got angry more than once.Zhao Mingcheng often makes amends at night, coaxing her into a wide-eyed smile.Middle-aged couples are also lingering and in a hurry.Counting with your fingers, the husband and wife have been in love for twenty-seven years.After Li Qingzhao was busy with his husband and wife affairs, he still couldn't get enough of his thoughts. When he talked about the poets of the past dynasties, his cheeks were flushed and his eyes were shining.Then Zhao Mingcheng has fallen into a deep sleep... Li Qingzhao often criticized Su Dongpo, saying that Dongpo's lyrics were uncoordinated, which gave her a headache.Although the number one scholar in the Song Dynasty was pedantic about heaven and man, Li Qingzhao wanted to say that Dongpo's Ci, "The work of the world must not be true." She admired Li Yu the most. .Furthermore, after two hundred years, who will succeed Li Chongguang?I, Li Yi'an, are right.Li Yi'an also praised Ouyang Xiu, Eryan, and Liu Yong, thinking that they are orthodox poets, better than the so-called bold and unconstrained Dongpo.Zhao Mingcheng muttered: The tone of the lady is getting louder.He firmly disagreed, argued with her, and reminded her: "Don't forget, your father is a Sumen disciple."

Li Qingzhao jumped up on the bed, widened his almond eyes and said, "Father is father, and I am me!" The couple sometimes quarreled with each other with red faces.Sleeping back to back, no one pays attention to anyone... However, there are not many good times for quarreling. In May of this year, there was a sudden mutiny in Jiankang, and Zhao Mingcheng, who knew nothing about the military, fled to Anhui in a hurry.Soon, the military chaos subsided, Gaozong came to Jiankang, ordered Zhao Mingcheng to be the governor of Huzhou, and asked him to go to Jiankang to listen to the imperial edict.Zhao Mingcheng settled his wife in Chiyang (Guichi County, Anhui Province) and drove to Jinling.

"Jinshilu Postscript" records the farewell scene at Chiyang Jiangtou: "On June 13th, Mingcheng began to bear the boat, sitting on the shore, wearing a Ge-clothed shore scarf, with spirit like a tiger, with radiant eyes and shooting people, looking at the boat to bid farewell... " Zhao Mingcheng's eyes shot at people, and the situation was not good. Li Qingzhao stayed in the small town of Chiyang, anxiously waiting for news of her husband. It was the dog days and the heat was unbearable.Li Qingzhao lived in the official residence, and he seemed to have calmed down, but suddenly he became restless, which could not be relieved for several days.strangeness.It should be said that it is not a bad thing for my husband to go to Jiankang to face saints. His appointment as the magistrate of Huzhou was announced first.But why do you feel uneasy?Before leaving, Zhao Mingcheng told Li Qingzhao to wait for Chi Yang not to move, and to wait for his letter.In times of war, temporary changes in imperial orders are common. In a blink of an eye, it was Qixi Festival, when the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl met on the Magpie Bridge, Li Qingzhao wrote a poem "Xingxiangzi", which seemed to be an ominous omen.The full word is as follows: Shouting gnats in the grass, startled the sycamore trees, making the world and the sky full of sorrow.The clouds are on the moon and the earth, and there are thousands of locks.Float Cha to come, Float Cha to go, do not meet each other.The star bridge magpies drive, only see each other after years, if you want to leave love, don't hate it.Altair and Weaver Girl, is it Lizhong?It's sunny, it's raining, it's windy! Li Qingzhao said goodbye to her husband for a short time.It's not like when I was newly married, and it's not like three years ago, but the deep sorrow can't be dispelled: a few bugs in the grass screamed, and the leaves of the sycamore were startled.Neither is it sunny, nor is it raining, nor is it the wind: Sorrow of Li Qingzhao drives Li Qingzhao around. "July 7th in the Hall of Longevity, when no one is whispering in the middle of the night." This night, the atmosphere of Yang Yuhuan Tang Xuanzong was filled in the air.Can't tell why... Empress Li was born on Qixi Festival and died on Qixi Festival. Could it be that Qixi Festival is an ominous time? Li Qingzhao lingered in the courtyard of the official residence all night.My mind was uncannily clear.Missing burned her heart, but her cheeks were cold. "Xingxiangzi" rewrites Qixi Festival, but her thoughts at the moment leave the words and sentences, and throw her to the famous stone city. Of course she would not know that a few hundred years later, someone would write a pornographic book that made hundreds of millions of readers weep with tears.That man has been obsessed with her and her works all his life, especially this "Xingxiangzi" written on Qixi Festival in Chiyang. After the rain, the sky is clear and the moon is bright, and Li Qingzhao, wrapped in a moon-white veil, wanders around. Why, Qixi sleepless? At dawn, a servant brought a letter from Zhao Mingcheng. Li Qingzhao read half a line, and his hands trembled.Hastily packed up a few clothes, before saying goodbye to the local officials, untied the boat and headed east to Jiankang. It turned out that Zhao Mingcheng was urged by the emperor's order to rush too fast in the scorching heat, and fell ill when he arrived in Jiankang City.After some time, seeing that he could not breathe anymore, he wrote this short message to Li Qingzhao, which was illegible and hurried. Li Qingzhao rushed to her husband.Her husband, who was always ruddy, had a sallow face. After serving decoctions and medicines for more than a month, the patient did not improve. There are an endless stream of visitors.Among them was an uninvited guest: Zhang Ruzhou.He brought a valuable antique jade pot and presented it to Zhao Mingcheng.The epigrapher on the sickbed focused on the antiques, sometimes smiled, and sometimes had tears in his eyes.He didn't even have the strength to "play".Li Qingzhao has been holding the jade pot all the time, put it on the left, put it on the right, and put it in front, matching the eyes of my dear husband.In the twenty-eight years of husband and wife, how many actions have they done?This last bedside movement made everyone present choke.Zhang Ruzhou wiped away tears several times. In mid-August, forty-nine-year-old Zhao Mingcheng helped his illness and wrote a deadly poem, filled with hatred. Li Qingzhao passed out on the spot, and his relatives and friends could not wake him up. After that, he became seriously ill.People are sick on the bed and their souls are in the sky, looking for her Tan Lang. I have searched from heaven to earth, but I can't see the two places.Suddenly I heard an idiot in my ear—— Zhang Ruzhou visits her every day with a bouquet of her favorite osmanthus flowers, cooks for her, and cooks chicken soup for her.When it was getting late, he left without delay.The servant exaggerated my lord by the window, saying: "As expected of a gentleman, he was the master's best friend during his lifetime." During the winter, Li Qingzhao's face slowly returned to color, and his body gained a few pounds of flesh.Zhang Ruzhou praised her appearance and posture cautiously, she shook her head and looked at the snowflakes outside the window with a smile. The dead look farther and farther away, while the living still have to enjoy life.enjoy, miss... Li Qingzhao is now a widow, but not a widow in the sense of etiquette. She urged Zhang Ruzhou to go to his place of work in East Zhejiang. Perhaps, for many years, she was not unclear about Zhang Ruzhou's thoughts. She is still a middle-aged beauty, right?At this urgent age, women may be more eager for love between men and women. "It's a good place to relax with poems and books on the pillow, and the scenery in front of the door is good when the rain comes. I borrow many rhymes from people all day long, Osmanthus flower!" However, the fate changed again, and the hard-working Li Qingzhao was doomed. Jin Bing went south with iron hoofs, determined to catch Song Gaozong.Jiankang City could not be guarded, and the city was in chaos.That piece of Ruzhou at the end of spring also disappeared.Li Qingzhao thought: probably he was ordered to go to the east of Zhejiang, and he was in a hurry to say goodbye. It doesn't matter if Zhang Ruzhou disappears, Li Qingzhao still guards a large number of cultural relics: 20,000 volumes of books, 2,000 volumes of gold and stone calligraphy and painting, and countless utensils and mattresses.All of these things were touched by Zhao Mingcheng.She would rather die than lose the cultural relics.Qingzhou burned once, and she was heartbroken!Xu Xi, Wu Daozi, Du Fu, Bai Juyi, Li Gonglin, Su Shi, Huizong, Cai Jing, Cai Xiang, Huang Tingjian... How can you lose them! Rumors of Jiankang's "walking" arose: Jin Bing conquered the Yangtze River, and Gaozong was ready to release the ship to escape at any time.Some people also said that the emperor would fight to the death with the gold master in the steaming Jinling City.But Li Qingzhao's intuition told her: Gaozong wanted to run away.She was angry, but she couldn't write to the emperor.So I wrote down the "Summer Quatrains" that have been passed down through the ages: Live as a hero, and die as a ghost.So far I miss Xiang Yu and refuse to cross Jiangdong! This is a direct accusation of Song Gaozong and a large group of escapeists.In just twenty words, it turned from anger to calmness of anger, pushing Li Qingzhao to be an outstanding patriotic poetess.Excellence means: Let the seeds of the pain of losing the country blossom into brilliant flowers of words. Li Qingzhao wrote this quatrain a few years after the Jin people occupied North China. She can't write slogan poems.Although slogan poetry has its own historical value. She was worried about the cultural relics, and asked Mingcheng's brother-in-law to transport the cultural relics to Hongzhou (Nanchang), Jiangxi.This brother-in-law is the Minister of the Ministry of War, equivalent to the Deputy Minister of Defense. With him taking care of him in Jiangxi, the cultural relics can be preserved.Li Qingzhao planned to rush to Hongzhou immediately after Jiankang finished handling some matters.
