Chapter 7 There is no other meaning in the song, and it is for lovesickness

Using poetry as a raft, I see not only the slowly unfolding history, those sad, joyful, small and grand events, but also lonely and fruitful lives one by one.Some things that were not covered in the previous article are due to Xiao Gang's sentence: There is no other meaning in the song, and it is for lovesickness.It is possible to continue speaking. Willows become silk in disorder, climbing and folding in spring.Ye Mi birds fly hindered, the wind light flowers fall late.The city is tall and has short flute hair, and Lin Kong's painted corners are sad.There is no other meaning in the song, and it is for lovesickness.

In the same song "Folding Willows", Xiao Gang has more extraneous thoughts than his seventh younger brother Xiao Yi.There are still people in Xiao Yi's songs, and scenery is something that people wait and see. A mountain and a river are undeniably beautiful, but they still have a specific shape. When it comes to Xiao Gang, the scenery has turned into a realm, but it is still a scenery when viewed from the past.Combined with the third layer of Zen: "Seeing a mountain is still a mountain, and water is still water." In the Southern Dynasties, where wars and smoke were rampant and the wind was blowing, those emperors who were blinded by the Jiangnan hookah were destined to be only temporary dragon courts.The era of great unification is like the hibiscus in Jiangxin, which will not be available for a while.

History has been misplaced more than once.Taking Nanliang as an example, the Xiao family has excellent literary and artistic genes. Emperor Wu of Liang and his sons are all excellent poets, painters and musicians.In addition to loving being a monk, Emperor Wu of Liang Xiao Yan devoted himself to the development of religious undertakings.He is also good at literature, good at calligraphy, and good at rhythm. He once created four quasi-tone instruments, and twelve flutes of different lengths to correspond to the twelve rhythms. Xiao Tong, the eldest son of Emperor Wu of Liang, the well-known Prince Zhaoming, died young, but compiled the famous "Selected Works of Zhaoming", which has 30 volumes, 130 writers and 514 works It has become the most important material for future generations to study the development of literature from the pre-Qin period to the early 700s and 800s.

The third son, Xiao Gang, who was crushed to death by Hou Jing with a sandbag, is an important representative of palace style poetry. Poems were called "palace style" at that time.Create a generation of sensual style of writing. The seventh son, Xiao Yi, the Yuan Emperor who was crushed to death by Xiao Yu with a sandbag after burning the books, was both a poet and a painter.When Yuan Emperor Xiao Yi was in Jingzhou, he wrote all the military documents, articles, poems and prose with a stroke of his pen. He commented on himself: "I am good at writing, and I am ashamed of a warrior." I mentioned in the previous article that "the mountain is like a lotus flower." Brilliant, flowing like bright moonlight." It is from his "Folding Willows", the poem says: "Wushan Wu Gorge is long, and weeping willows are like weeping willows. Concentric and folded together, the old man cherishes his hometown. The mountains are as colorful as lotus flowers, and the flow is like bright moonlight. The cry of the ape in the cold night, and the wanderer's tears stained his clothes." His "Painting Tribute Map" depicts the envoys from the twenty-five countries outside Fangwai who came to the Middle Kingdom at that time. The characters are lifelike and exquisite in shape.It is a masterpiece in the history of painting.

Of this group of people, whoever stands up to be a writer is probably more than enough, accomplished, and very relaxed and freehand, but they just became emperors, so they are fatuous, incompetent, and incompetent.The literati family's rule over the south collapsed after only fifty years of existence.And this cultural experience is thousands of years longer than Guozuo, which has only existed for fifty years? The man I wished for - Prince Zhaoming Xiao Tong.The "Selected Works of Zhaoming" left by him is enough to glorify future generations, and is more respected than the short-lived Liang Dynasty.I am very glad that he died on the throne. As a complete prince, a successful literati will remain in the hearts of future generations.You don't have to stand on the throne of the emperor, and you don't have to be judged by future generations whether you are competent or successful as an emperor.Later history proved that he was luckier than his father and brothers.

Emperor Wu of Liang believed in Buddhism.Fortunately, the Liang Dynasty was established, and then inexplicably fell into a coma, which led to the "Hou Jing Rebellion". The old emperor in his eighties was starved to death, and he couldn't drink a glass of honey water before he died.And so died.I don’t know, it’s his punishment for sacrificing his life in Tongtai Temple four times, leaving the treasury empty and the people in dire straits; or it’s the Buddha’s reward to him, pay off your debts as soon as possible.In the next life, I promise you to die. Now, when I turn to the Nanliang page of the history book, I still feel very sad, not because Emperor Wu of Liang was starved to death, or because Emperor Jianwen and Emperor Yuan were suffocated to death with earth bags.But just because of one person's ignorance and ignorance, thousands of ordinary people will be dragged down with their lives.

It is too wrong to sacrifice the blood of thousands of people to pay homage to one person's mistakes! In the first year of Taiqing in the Southern Liang Dynasty, Emperor Wu of Liang had an inexplicable dream. As far as the dream itself is concerned, we should say it was a good dream, because Emperor Wu of Liang dreamed that he had obtained a large piece of land without any effort, and this land belonged to others, so Even dreaming is enough for him to be excited for a long time.But in terms of what happened later, we really can't say that it was a good dream with no conscience.Just a few days after Emperor Wu's dream of falling pie in the sky, Hou Jing, the Nandao Xingtai of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, sent an envoy to deliver a letter. , The thirteen prefectures including Yu, Guang, Ying, Jing, Xiang, Yan, Nanyan, Ji, Dongyu, Luo, Yang, Beijing, and Beiyang to the west of Xiaqiu."

We don't need to go into such a mess of place names. We only need to know that Emperor Wu was tempted by this bunch of unnecessary fat and accepted the surrender of Hou Jing, a wolf. In the end, he didn't get the land.It was because of his stupidity and capriciousness that Hou Jing took risks and raised troops to create chaos.What's even more ironic is that Hou Jing turned the country of Nanliang upside down with five thousand soldiers. Back to poetry.What were Xiao's father and son doing at that time?As you know, in addition to his love of literature and music, Emperor Wu also loved religious affairs crazily. Du Mu's poem said: "There are 480 temples in the Southern Dynasty, how many buildings are in the mist and rain" is a clear proof. It is not too exaggerated from a historical point of view. I'm afraid it's even less.Xiao Yan loves to put himself in the temple as a treasure and dedicate it to the Buddha.For his symptoms, we can only say that he is insane.If it is true sacrifice, it is hard to say whether the Buddha is happy or not, but his son Xiao Gang must be wishing for it.without him.You can ascend to the throne early and enjoy the supreme excitement and happiness brought by power.The terrible thing is, is he really she, he has no intention of abdicating at all, he is mostly making a gesture, sitting in the temple and waiting for the minister to redeem him from the Buddha.He is certain that the country cannot be without a king for a day, as long as he does not issue an abdication edict, he will still be the "emperor"

Of course the ministers wanted to redeem him, the priceless king.Such back and forth tossing, spent a total of 40 million yuan.The little girl who is bad at mathematics also knows that this is an extremely huge number. Of course, the Buddha will not be able to receive the money. They have their own Western Paradise and don’t need it. Tongtai Temple probably would not dare to accept it. In private, it has to be transferred to the emperor's account.If Xiao Yan took it himself, I really can't figure out why he wants the money? This money eventually turned into exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes for the common people, which was a heavy burden.And in the poems of these people who caused suffering, you can't see a trace.Therefore, it is inaccurate to say that poetry expresses one's will and words are one's heart's voice. For a purely talented poet, like Li Bai and Du Fu, they are doomed to be unable to become officials, and they can only appear in the form of poets in the social form , born for poetry.Live a wonderful and miserable life.For some romantic literati, it is not necessarily the case. Poems and songs are just spices for their lives.

There is no other meaning in the song, and it is Emperor Jianwen who is in love, and the puppet emperor of Hou Jingli.His father was starved to death, and his daughter was accepted by Hou Jingsuo as a concubine. The former crown prince liked to read books and love to talk. His teacher He Jingrong expressed worryingly to others in private: "In the past, the kings and ministers of the Western Jin Dynasty also advocated metaphysics. The Central Plains fell into the hands of the barbarians. Today, the East Palace is like this again. Will we in the south of the Yangtze River be enslaved by the barbarians?"

Facts have proved that Mr. He has a vision.When the country was ruined and his family was ruined, Xiao Gang's metaphysics, poetry and essays did not help him a single bit.This reminds me of a poem in the Tang Dynasty: "It is better to be a centurion than a scholar." When Hou Jing, a rebel, took it away and insulted him as a plaything, he must have felt sad.When Hou Jingpai's confidant Peng Jun gave him a bottle of wine for him to drink, he must have been terrified and helpless.In Chinese history, when a courtier gave wine to a fallen king, it meant sending him on his way.Such incidents are not uncommon, and have become one of the important scenes in the change of dynasty.Emperor Jian Wen was familiar with history books, so he naturally knew what this move meant, so he prepared to be a dead ghost, "he drank heavily." After Emperor Jian Wen was drunk, Peng Jun filled a burlap bag with clods, and then pressed it to Emperor Jian Wen. On the stomach, Emperor Jian Wen died in such an extremely disgraceful way. To intervene in the story of Princess Liyang, when Hou Jing was still in Shouyang before rebellion, he once wrote to Emperor Wu of Liang, requesting to solve his marriage problem, hoping to marry a woman from a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River.The leader, Emperor Wu of Liang, instructed: "Wang Xie's family status is too high. You are from a lowly family background and cannot be matched. You should seek a spouse from the families below the surnames Zhu and Zhang." Hou Jing has always been brooding over this matter. When the entire empire is under his control, a person like him who must take revenge will definitely give full revenge for the humiliation he has suffered.Thus, the little golden branch and jade leaf body became his tool to vent his desire.At the same time, the Wangxie family he once looked up to was also slaughtered, and has since become a slant of light at the entrance of Wuyi Lane.Out of the corner of my eye, the blood flowed like a sea. After Emperor Jianwen, although Hou Jing made a guest appearance as an emperor, the Liang Dynasty did not collapse like this, and its remaining salary still exists.Xiao Yi, the seventh son of Emperor Wu, announced in Jiangling, Hubei Province that he would inherit the Datong.It is very obvious that he is also a first-class literati, and he is very popular as a literati. Everyone will understand this at a glance when I talk about the following stories. In the story of "Mistresses", Xiao Yi is amazingly patient with his wife Xu Zhaopei.So that some men sighed, WO, KAO!This is still the Son of Heaven. As the saying goes, "The wrath of the Son of Heaven will lay down millions of corpses and bleed for thousands of miles."He doesn't know what to do with his green hat flying all over the sky, and he doesn't even have the blood of an ordinary man. Sorry, the last thing you need to be an emperor is blood.Bloody men are men, and Chu Xiangyu is bloody enough to kill himself in Wujiang.Liu Bang has never been bloody, he can run when he can, and he can escape when he can, without exception.However, he founded the Han Dynasty and was regarded as the "Great Ancestor". He had his own system of wagging his tail to whitewash his actions, turning black and white upside down.As for Xiang Yu, it is often seen in the essays of young girls like us, who sighed: "I still think of Xiang Yu, but I refuse to cross Jiangdong." Xiao Yi is also bloodless, but fortunately, he meets the other two conditions for being an emperor: first, he is ruthless.He is ruthless enough to deny his relatives, Xiao Yi can do it.The first thing he did after ascending the throne was not to find Hou Jing to avenge his father and brother, which shows how insignificant the revenge of father and brother is to those who want to be emperor.He first had to be busy eliminating those Xiao brothers who might compete with him for the throne.At that time, the guardian of Changsha was Xiao Yu, the grandson of Emperor Wu of Liang. Xiao Yu was the son of Xiao Tong. In terms of blood, he was closer to the throne than Xiao Yi, who was a Xiaozong.A melee.He successfully drove Xiao Yu away, and at the same time sent a large piece of land in Nanliang into the arms of the Western Wei people.The second is luck.The history of China has repeatedly said the word "luck". People who have no luck will sigh "Heaven will die!" Cut me off!" All things still have to be attributed to the sentence that the times make heroes, but it doesn't matter whether the hero is a real hero or a bear. Luck is a kind of fate.So Xiao Yi still looks a bit lucky.After he was busy fighting in the nest, he seemed to remember that there was an enemy named Hou Jing in Jiankang City on the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.When he planned to attack Hou Jing, Hou Jing had already led his troops westward one step ahead of him, and broke through the fortress Jiangxia.Fortunately, Xiao Yi has two famous generals who are used to fighting-Wang Sengbian and Chen Baxian.Wang Sengbian stuck to Baling, waited for work with ease, and defeated Hou Jing, which relieved the urgent need.He and Chen Baxian besieged Taicheng together, and completely defeated Hou Jing, the devil king of the world. With Wang Sengbian and Chen Baxian, this literati named Xiao Yi, Emperor Liang Yuan, was lucky enough to quell the Hou Jing Rebellion. In fact, he himself did nothing but write a few military letters. What kind of tragedy was the Hou Jing Rebellion?Seven hundred years later, Sima Guang, who was used to the vicissitudes of the world and seen too many miserable images in the world, shook his head and wrote heavily on it: "There is no smoke for thousands of miles, and there are few people. Longyan." "Since the Jin family crossed the river, the three Wus were the most prosperous, and all the tribute, business and travel came out of their land. And Hou Jing's rebellion, after the gold and silk were plundered, they were plundered and eaten by people, or sold in the northern border, and the survivors died. It's all over." However, these miserable images have nothing to do with him who sits high in the Dragon Court. He just wants to be his emperor like a frog in a well, and regards Yuanyuan on the well as the boundless sky.He still composes poems, paints and plays the piano every day.He also has the same hobby as his third brother, which is to talk about metaphysics.Every day Xiao Yi summoned ministers of civil and military affairs to listen to him lecture on "Lao Tzu" in the hall.Do a lot of metaphysics popularization classes.Even though Xiao Yu, who was defeated by the Western Wei Dynasty, made a comeback and the Western Wei army came under pressure, it still failed to spoil his interest.The reason for this certainty is that he is a person with high self-esteem, and he deserves to be the best poet and painter of that era.If the comparison between governing the country and the world is poetry and painting, we have nothing to say. When Jiangling City was broken, Xiao Yi ordered all the ancient and modern books in his collection to be burned.There are a total of 140,000 volumes of those classics.Many of them are peerless rare books, and these rare books turned into smoke and dust with the nerd's order.He didn't think about the future generations, he only thought that it was his personal thing, and he could dispose of it as he wanted.All the kings of subjugation are the same, they think that the world will sink into the boundless darkness forever with their departure, without redemption. ——Before burning the book, Xiao Yi pretended to draw out his sword and slashed at the pillar, sighing, "The way of civil and military affairs is exhausted tonight." Mr. Bo Yang believes that Xiao Yi's small gesture and this sentence have two meanings : One is to accuse the civil and military officials of not protecting him with all their might and abandoning their sacred responsibilities.Second, since King Wen of Zhou and King Zhou Wu, Chinese orthodoxy, which has been inherited in one continuous line, also ended tragically because of his failure.This arrogant man!Immortality and no cure. That night, Jiangling was full of flames. In the end, Xiao Yi did not commit suicide like a virtuous king who subjugated the country. He rode a white horse and wore plain clothes out of the city to accept surrender. People in the Western Wei Dynasty also wondered why he burned books. , still has today, so burn it.” If the most subjugated country is attributed to reading, all scholars in the world should vomit to death.I think Qin Shihuang must be very wronged, because many people played the trick of burning books after him and were not condemned, but he was reviled by all generations just for better unification of thinking.A ridiculous and cowardly person like Xiao Yi who burns books to escape the crime of subjugation is actually let off lightly by Shibi. Xiao Yi's death method is similar to Xiao Gang's.He was handed over to his nephew and rival Xiao Yu by the people of the Western Wei Dynasty.Xiao Yu did not hesitate at all, crushed him to death with a sandbag, and buried him hastily outside Jiangling City. It's fine for such a man to die, but it's a pity for his radiant and good writing style. Let's still use Xiao Gang's folded willows as a knot.The willows are in disorder, and when they climb to the spring, it is the prosperous Wei and Jin Dynasties; the leaves are dense and the birds are flying, the wind is light and the flowers fall late, it is the absurd and frivolous Nanliang Dynasty, they have cut off their lifeline; the city is high and short. Fa, Lin Kong painted corners of grief, vaguely these literati emperors uttered in the fallen kingdom. There is no other meaning in the song, and it is for lovesickness, which is the reason why I wrote this text. With the person thousands of years ago, right and wrong, we wrote about him, after all, there is a ray of lovesickness. See bibliography, content: "One Dream, Two People and the Destiny of an Era"
