Chapter 5 A hundred years of parting in a high-rise building, a generation of beauty is the king

I used to only know that Shi Chong was a giant in the history of Chinese luxury and an iconic figure in the history of corruption.When I read "Book of Jin" before, I always wondered how a person like Pan Yue with outstanding literary talents could have a good relationship with Shi Chong, because the two people really don't get along.Even if Pan Yue wants to cling to the powerful, he doesn't have to cling to Shi Chong, because Shi Chong is really not a big official, but a local official, at most he can help some money and food.But Handsome Pan, with his charm of "throwing fruit and filling the car", he will not be so poor that he can't get rid of the pot.

It's because I'm ignorant and ignorant that I don't read much. Only after studying Yuefu did I know that Shi Chong is also a creative talent.The Yuefu put the song "Wang Mingjun" under his name. The story of "Wang Mingjun" is not new. Because "Zhaojun" touched the taboo of Jin Wendi Sima Zhao, Jin people changed "Zhao" to "Ming". "Tang Shu Le Zhi" contains: "Mingjun, Han opera. The Han people pity him for marrying far away, so he made this song. Jin Shi Chongji Luzhu is good at dancing, so he taught it with this song, and made a new song." It can be seen that this song is Shi Chong. New words based on Han opera.It is a work of chanting ancient things by borrowing ancient titles.I was shocked when I saw it for the first time, thinking that this corrupt king can write a good poem, and there is still, "Feihong doesn't care about me, standing with a screen camp. It used to be a jade in a box, but now it's a dung hero." Zhaohua is not enough to be happy, sweet and autumn grass are screened. It is passed on to future generations that it is embarrassing to marry far away." Such a tactful and cool sentence.It was unexpected.

To be honest, "It is embarrassing to marry far away." If such words came from Lu Zhu's mouth, I would not be surprised at all.Regardless of whether women are willing to tolerate women or not, at least they can understand women.What's more, Luzhu herself is also a person who married far away.In the Taikang Dynasty of the Western Jin Dynasty, when Shi Chong was an interview envoy for Jiaozhi (now Vietnam), he passed by Bobai and was amazed by the beauty of Luzhu. He hired her as a concubine with three Dendrobium pearls and brought her back to Luoyang.It is said that her name has two origins: first, according to the "History of Music, The Legend of Lvzhu", Lvzhu's original surname is Liang, a native of Hepu, Lingnan, and a slang nationality. The female name is Zhuniang, which may be the origin of the name of Lvzhu; and according to "Taiping Guangji": "There is a Lvzhu well at the foot of Bobai Mountain, originally from the stable Liang family. If it is loose, it will be long, and if it is crumpled, it will be round like a pearl, so it is called green pearl.

The ancient people's words to describe appearance are moving and difficult to understand. We can easily imagine what the eyebrows look like when they are relaxed and long, but it is difficult to understand when the brows are round like beads when they frown. It is probably related to the popular eyebrow shape at that time.The style of good eyebrows began to rise around the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and by the Tang Dynasty it had become the ultimate standard for judging whether a woman was beautiful.Lvzhu is endowed with unique blessings, her eyebrows are extraordinary, she is good at playing the flute, and she performs the "Zhaojun Dance".Shi Chong is an expert in earning money and becoming rich, and a prodigal son of extravagance, but he is also a literati who is good at poetry and prose, and has the same hobby as Lu Zhu.No wonder Luzhu fell in love with him—women usually can't reject such a man with similar interests, understanding, understanding, understanding, good and evil.

A girl from a poor family meets a rich man.He brought her back to the imperial capital, loved her beyond belief, and built her a high-rise "Chongqi Tower" in the Golden Valley Garden to comfort her homesickness—all these encounters are simply plots in romance novels, enough to make her feel sad. Girls yearn for it.However, if you think about it in your own shoes, even though Lu Zhu lives in the Jingu Garden, where the wealth is not diminished, and Shi Chong also favors her, she should not be very happy.Because at that time in the Golden Valley Garden, there was a group of equally young and beautiful girls waiting to replace them, even if they were eye-catching, they were terrified.

A woman from a foreign land relies on the love of a man who may disappear at any time.It is also human nature for her to express embarrassment about marrying far away in the midst of wealth and honor.If it were Shi Chong, it would really shock people's jaws!Therefore, "Wang Mingjun" is likely to be a work jointly completed by Shi Chong and Luzhu, and it may also be the first song and dance in China with the theme of Zhaojun. Liang Luzhu and Wang Zhaojun.They are very different in time, background, and circumstances, but they have one thing in common. They are all beautiful and strong people, and the hard-to-find beautiful jade is not deliberately carved.Rather Stick to your guns.Wang Qiang doesn't want to be a woman who guards the dusk alone in the palace.I would rather risk my life to gamble on the Gobi wasteland than to be a bird imprisoned in a golden cage and die alone.The story of Zhaojun, descendants and unofficial historians are happy to comment on what happened in the Han Palace after Zhaojun dressed up, but few people pay attention to the helplessness and pain of marrying a foreign country. Shi Chong wrote that she married twice after entering the Huns Lonely and pitiful, "When I see the insult, I am ashamed and shocked. It is not easy to kill a good person, but to live in silence." The emotional grasp is quite accurate, but he does not understand that the fierceness of a woman's unyielding ending is what drives all events out of the fortress. determinants of occurrence.It's like he couldn't predict that Lu Zhu would jump off the tall building without hesitation because of his words, so as to show his ambition by death.

"Book of Jin" describes the ending of the green pearl as follows: After the rebellion of Sima Lun, king of Zhao, when Lun came to power, Lun's confidant Sun Xiu sent people to ask Shi Chong for the green pearl, and Chong sent out dozens of his maidservants and concubines to show it. It is so beautiful that you can choose it casually, but the envoy insisted on the green bead, Shi Chong said angrily, "The green bead is my beloved! It is impossible to get it." The envoy went in and out several times, but he couldn't get it after asking for the green bead.Later, Sun Xiujiao ordered Shi Chong to be arrested. Shi Chong was drinking and having fun. When the soldiers came in, Shi Chong said to Luzhu, "I offended you now." and die.

Shi Chong is a person who values ​​wealth over righteousness. As the governor of Jingzhou, he often plunders merchants and kills innocent people indiscriminately. It's just a matter of exchange, and then there is a little true love.In fact, even if Shi Chong's madness didn't offend Sun Xiu because of the green pearl, he might offend other people in the future, and he didn't end well.However, thanks to Luzhu's jump, he gained a bit of fame, and since then he has a place in the history of love in China. The Holy Spirit tells the scriptures that love can wash away all the sins of the world, impurity, and all evils cannot be redeemed.Shi Chong was filthy all his life, but because he fell in love with Luzhu and went to death one after another, he became much cleaner.Daiyu tried to compose "Five Beauties", in which a poem chanting green pearls said: "One example of rubble and pearls is thrown away, and He Zeng Shiwei is so delicate."Destined to be stubborn and blessed in the previous life, and even more lonely to return to the same place.

Lin Daiyu, a talented woman of a generation, believes that Shi Chong threw away ten pearls like rubble in order to buy green beads. How can it be said that what he values ​​is only the enchanting appearance of the green beads?These are all pre-existing predestinations of Longfu, so they can comfort the lonely life with death.Shi Chong is insignificant, but his treatment of Luzhu is considered true, so Daiyu laments his eyesight for discovering Luzhu and his affection for him.Daiyu is lonely, and Yong Luzhu is actually her own desire. She hopes that a man can treat herself like Shi Chong treats Luzhu, and she also has the pure courage of Luzhu to reciprocate.

It's a pity that the lonely, rebellious and loyal Daiyu can't stay with the man she thinks she loves even until she dies.She died alone. It is recorded in the book that green pearls can also be used for poetry, and Shi Jilun's talent is highly valued. Not only is the color beautiful, but the "Reinong Song" he made is very reciprocable.Women in Eastern Guangdong who are able to write poems began with Green Pearl. "Song of Remorse" was originally sung by Shi Chong. On the one hand, Luzhu misses her hometown, and on the other hand, she can't let go of Shi Chong.So I often sing "Song of Suinong" to express my troubles.The poem "Song of Remorse" she sang said: "Silk cloth is hard to sew, making it difficult for ten fingers to wear. Yellow oxen and small carts, the game is out of Mengjin." The innocent, beautiful and graceful tone is known as the "first singing poem" of the Pearl of the South, which has a great influence.

In fact, Luzhu's "Song of Huan Nong" does not completely rhyme in terms of meter.This point is not rigorous but shows the lively benefits of the ancient Yuefu.Ancient Yuefu, especially "Qing Shang Song Ci", is not completely rigid in rhythm.In terms of poetic structure, the first two sentences and the last two sentences of this poem also lack an organic close connection, but the whole poem is sincere, with a tactful style, and uses clever image thinking, which has a profound impact on future generations. People compete to imitate.Wen Tingyun, a famous poet in the late Tang Dynasty, wrote "Song of Regrets": "It is difficult to make a thread out of a needle, and the pistil powder is dyed yellow so deeply" obviously uses the description method of green beads.Liu Bowen, the founding hero of the Ming Dynasty, wrote "Song of Remorse" as follows: "When the white crow raised its young, it would cry every night until the dawn. How to make wings? Go to your own place. The title of the song is "Remorse".Regret, regret, it sounds like there is a trace of resentment.But Lu Zhu never complained to anyone until her death.She left to future generations the calm and poignant beauty like falling flowers falling to a cliff with the wind.Such no regrets, no regrets, courage and integrity are the reasons why literati and poets of all ages have praised her endlessly. Luzhu died in 300 AD. 600 years later, Du Mu came to the former site of Jingu Garden where Shi Chong lived.Du Mu took up a pen and wrote: the prosperous things disperse the fragrance and dust, and the flowing water is ruthless and the grass and trees spring.At dusk, the east wind complains of birds singing, and falling flowers are like people falling from a building. Du Mu's mood is complicated.I think he must have sympathy and affirmation for Luzhu.However, to a large extent, the object of Du Mu's sigh is the prosperity of Jingu Garden.Therefore, we heard Du Mu express his sincere regret for the prosperity of the past: "Prosperous things disperse the fragrance and dust, and the flowing water is ruthless and the grass and trees spring." This is how the person who fell from the building appeared in Du Mu's poems-the falling flowers are like the person who fell from the building .Luzhu's misery, innocence and helplessness have all become falling flowers in Du Mu's works, and women have been completely turned into objects, becoming a reference for men in future generations when they think about "prosperity", and an insignificant small probability for men when they contemplate history event. Du Mu's poems inadvertently revealed the secret of love in poetry - women's love and hatred have been forgotten by men.There is only "prosperity" left in their thinking, and only "prosperity is scattered" that can make them feel emotional. The direct factor that really makes them write their pens is "flowing water, ruthless vegetation and spring". For all these misfortunes, Guanxiu, a famous poet monk in the late Tang Dynasty, had a deep understanding.The generation of eminent monks who are empty of the four elements and pure in the six senses, write green beads with more profound and thorough emotions than ordinary men.He wrote: Wind cuts the sun and blooms the fairyland, and a hundred flowers die with blood.Before Yiduo fell down the steps, someone should complain about Sun Xiu. This is Guanxiu's poem about camellias. When he saw the camellia "before falling down the steps", he thought of green beads falling from a building, and integrated the green beads and falling flowers into one, expressing his regret and expressing his respect for the camellia. The resentment of "Sun Xiu" for killing "Green Pearl". Unfortunately.There has been no shortage of Sun Xiu's "destroyers" in the past dynasties.Correspondingly, women repay their confidantes with death, and people in later generations followed suit frequently.After many years, an astonishingly similar story happened in Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty.In the first year of Wu Zetian's longevity, Qiao Zhizhi's favored servant girl, Miao Niang, was the favorite of Qiao Zhizhi, the Zuo Secretary of the Ministry of Officials, who was good at poetry, singing and dancing.Qiao Zhizhi deeply loves her.At that time, Wu Chengsi was arrogant and forced Qiao Zhizhi to bet on my mother with gold and jade.After Qiao Zhizhi lost, Wu Chengsi sent someone to Qiao Zhi's house to snatch my mother.Qiao Zhizhi repented, and wrote "Green Pearl Chapter" to express his grievances: "Shijia Jingu reappeared, and Pearl Ten Dendrobium bought Pingting. This day is pitiful and self-satisfied. At this time, the singing and dancing are so popular that the Jun family's boudoir has never been seen. Borrowing the singing and dancing to others. The heroic spirit is unreasonable, and the arrogance and influence are irrelevant. I can’t bear to leave the king, and I will hurt the lead powder in vain. A century of hatred is in a high-rise building, and the face of a generation will be lost to the king.” Privately bought Wu Chengsi The eunuch of the family passed poems to my mother.After reading the poem, My Niang burst into tears, sewed the poem on her skirt and threw herself into a well.Wu Chengsi picked up my mother's body from the well, got the poem from the clothes, and one can imagine what happened next.When Wu Chengsi saw the poem, he was furious.Qiao Zhizhi was arrested on the charge of instituting cruel officials.The Qiao family was ransacked, and the clan members were implicated and imprisoned one after another. Qiao Zhizhi is also considered a gifted scholar. Although he didn't show much style in the era when poets gathered in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, his poems and prose are actually quite impressive.In the Yuefu, there is an article "Folding Willows" written by him in a woman's voice: Poor Zhuo Zhuochun willows, it will be slender to climb and fold in the future.The concubine rises and falls with this, so why should the king's kindness last long alone.It reads like my mother is confiding.In fact, Qiao Zhizhi has no right to criticize my mother, as he himself said, the concubine's capacity rises and falls with this, so why should the king's kindness last forever.As a man, he can't resist power, so why should a weak girl be unyielding for him? The world is hard to bend.The human situation is cramped and narrow, and it is difficult to even be loyal to one's own will.It is even more rare to show one's own strength of character.The love of each other, the grace of knowing each other.She stayed for him and fell to his death for him.Later generations said that her soul turned into a crane and returned to her hometown. It is really embarrassing to marry far away!However, she does not regret at all that she met and fell in love with Shi Chong and stayed with her to death.At that time, the little girl in Luluo Village who was smiling and charming had grown into a sonorous woman with the style of a national scholar. The affection accumulated in time has long surpassed the "embarrassment of marrying far away" that I felt sorry for myself at the beginning. Before I jumped down, I was willing to spend my whole life to pay for it-you have more affection for me.
