——The two sons took a boat to enjoy the scenery. The two sons took a boat to enjoy the scenery.Willing to speak and think of children, center to support! The two sons passed away in a boat.May words and thoughts be harmless. —— "Ye Feng Two Sons Riding a Boat" (superior) Xuan Jiang's young and indifferent face flashed past the discussion of the subjects.Unknowingly, time has been cut and folded between the fingers for fifteen years, Shou and Shuo have grown up, and the little boy with drooping hair has grown into a man worthy of confrontation with Ji Ji.Not only the body, but also the mind.

Shou is a benevolent and docile child, he loves his eldest brother, and has never had any unreasonable thoughts; but Shuo is not reconciled, he does not want to be a lifelong courtier under the throne, he is always eyeing the throne, planning to take Ji Ji pulled down from the crown prince's throne and climbed up by himself. Xuan Jiang became the object of his use.Shuo knew very well that Duke Xuan was still in love with his mother's beauty, so he would obey her words.He fabricated a lie, saying that Ji Ji had never forgotten the hatred of taking his wife, and even vowed to eradicate his mother and son after succeeding to the throne.

There is no mother who does not believe in her son.Xuan Jiang was shocked and took Ji Shuo to find Duke Xuan, hoping to save his son's life.Wei Xuangong didn't feel that the root cause of this incident was his own. After hearing Ji Shuo's bad news, he called Ji Ji's biological mother and scolded her for being incompetent in raising his son. Ji Ji's mother, Yi Jiang, hanged herself that very night. (middle) "Since Yi Jiang died, Xuan Jiang wanted to live a long life, so he conspired with Shou brother Shuo to make a son." ( ) According to historians, it has never had anything to do with true love.

——Next, Duke Xuan decided to kill the weeds.Xuan Jiang didn't expect things to develop to this point.She didn't want anyone to die at all, let alone Ji Ji. However, Xuan Jiang's entreaties were no longer effective. Ji Shuo's complaint was hitting Wei Xuangong's sore spot: he was already old, and he was afraid that he would die at the hands of his eldest son who was in his prime. Wei Xuangong sent Ji Ji to Qi State, and asked the prince to use a special banner: "Four horses and white banner tails".Taking this as a sign, send killers on the road to prepare for the assassination.

I have always disdained to compare Tang Xuanzong and Wei Xuangong on the same level, Wei Xuan, an old bastard who destroys human relations, is not worthy!Li Longji fell in love with his daughter-in-law and used tricks, but he didn't use force, and he didn't hide his intentions afterwards. In front of his son, the ministers of the world, the Sangong Sixth Court, and the common people, he loved her frankly. Doting on his daughter-in-law, he never thought of hurting his son or blocking the mouths of everyone in the world.Saburo really loves Yuhuan and is willing to bear the guilt of his life and death. True love is a fragrant plum blossom, and he doesn't need to lose his face to the world.

As for Xuan Gong, he doesn't love Xuan Jiang at all, what he admires is her young and attractive face.All he loves is himself. When Xuan Jiang heard the news, he quickly asked his son Ji Shou to deliver a letter to his elder brother.This is the origin of the story of "Two Sons Riding a Boat". Xuan Jiang seemed to see small boats floating on the river. She had deep thoughts and worries in her heart. She was worried and uncertain. The shadow of the boat was far away, and the flowing water sent you far away. I hope you will not suffer disaster. Ji Shou caught up with Ji Ji and told him the news.However, Ji Ji is a gentleman, he never believed that his father could kill him, and insisted on going.

Ji Shou was determined to atone for his brother's sin. At the farewell banquet, he got Ji Ji drunk and set off in his place. When the killer saw the white oxtail, he killed Ji Shou indiscriminately.Ji Ji woke up, finally understood the truth, and hurried to catch up with his younger brother. When he arrived, Ji Shou had already collapsed in a pool of blood. Ji Ji scolded the killer bitterly, and sighed: "It's a mistake! You ordered me to be killed, what is Shou's crime?" The killer who had come to his senses kept going and hacked him to death. The two competed to die for each other, which was moving.The people of Weiguo mourned his death and thought about it, and wrote poems to mourn it——

The two sons took a boat to enjoy the scenery.Willing to speak and think of children, center to support! The two sons passed away in a boat.May words and thoughts be harmless. However, the dead are already dead. They have fulfilled their reputation of benevolence and filial piety, but they have brought infinite sorrow to the living.Knowing the news of the death of his son and lover, Xuan Jiang was overwhelmed with grief.The youngest son's cruelty, the old husband's cruelty, everything is vivid in my mind, she was being used!It's just that it's too late for her to understand.

There are different opinions about what is mentioned in "Two Sons Riding a Boat". Some people say that Xuan Jiang misses his son and lover, while others say that Ji Ji's mother, Yi Jiang, misses her son. It seems that there are always disputes about the ability of this poem; But the idea is very clear, it is a farewell poem written by the farewell person to express the thoughts and worries of the relatives who have traveled far away, so it is most appropriate to regard it as a farewell poem. Sometimes knowing the story behind the words of a poem doesn't bring joy. (Down)

Wei Xuangong took his daughter-in-law and murdered his sons for many unrighteous actions. Wei Zhichen was not ashamed of his actions, and wrote "Quail's Ben Ben" to satirize him.The poem says: The quail is running, the magpie is strong.People are unscrupulous, I thought brother? The magpie is strong and the quail is running.People are unscrupulous, do I think you are king? Translated into vernacular, it is easy to scold—— Quails live in pairs, and magpies fly in pairs.That man is so corrupt and shameless that I honor him as my elder brother. Magpies sing in pairs, and quails dance in pairs.That man is corrupt and shameless, and I respect him as a king.

According to legend, the author of this poem is Wei Xuangong's concubine Zuo Gongzi Xie and You Gongzi.We don't care who the author is, in short, we are scolding everyone's aspirations - this guy is not as good as a beast!There are two chapters in the whole poem, four lines in each chapter, all of which start with "Quail's running" and "Magpie's strength". Behavior can be described as corrupt and depraved, not as good as animals, and in vain to be a brother and a king.In the two chapters of the whole poem, only the words "brother" and "jun" are not repeated. Although the poet dares not to regard him as a brother or a king, it seems gentle and honest, but in fact he uses the words "brother" and "jun", which is equivalent to It is to publicly criticize Wei Xuangong with words and pens, straightly cut and penetrating. After reading it, we can still see that the remarks at that time were relatively loose, and it will be difficult to see such cramp and skinning irony in later generations.People in the pre-Qin period sang songs when they were happy, and they sang songs when they were angry. Respectful and cute, seeing flowers waving, seeing Mr. Sun saying hello, seeing fish and shrimps also chattering.People of later generations are constantly affirming and denying themselves among various morals and standards, striving for self-improvement, and the hypocrisy of "being taboo for the saints" is added.What is lost is often the initial bit of sincerity and pungentness!
