Character experience

Tang Geng and Su Shi were small fellow townsmen, and they were demoted to Huizhou. They were both elegant and elegant. They were called "small Dongpo" at that time. However, Tang Geng was a poem, which was close to painstaking chanting and was different from Sushi's pleasure of writing. He once said, "it's very hard to write poetry, and it's hard to chant sad songs for days." he often revised it several times, and then wrote it into a piece (self talk). But he can "deliberately exercise without losing his temperament" (General Catalogue of Siku Quanshu). His poems are concise, concise, skillful and innovative. There are many beautiful lines in the poem, such as "the mountain is as quiet as ancient times, and the day is as long as the year" (drunken sleep), "the grass is still green and the rain is falling, and the mountain is purple and the sun is setting" (I saw in the book at the end of qichan), "a good mountain is more suitable for snow, and the water looks like a falling Poplar", and "there are beautiful lines at the end of the river, but you can find them for you" (suburb of spring).

My heart is moving. I'm going to Lunan. " Before Geng could respond, Bo Hu said bravely, "I will make up my mind." The town of Hongchuan is now the seat of Hongya County Government. It is adjacent to the Qingyi River. The Qingyi River flows into the Dadu River near Leshan City, and then into the Minjiang River.

Tang Geng's Poems

What I see in my book at dusk

The rain is always black and the spring is green. The mountain is deep, the temple is lost, and the lake is lonely. In spring, the lake is smoky, and the water is bright. The grass is still green with rain, and the mountain is purple with the setting sun.

Spring return

What is the east wind? It's so common. The flowers in the small city are close together, and the willows in the lonely city are round. The sound of birds brings cold food, and the color of the river brings new year. No plan to drive the worry, but also pushed to the wine side.

Drunk sleep

The mountain is as quiet as ancient times, and the days are as long as the Spring Festival. The rest of the flowers can still be drunk, and a good bird can sleep. The door of world flavor is always closed, and time is ready. If you get a sentence in a dream, you forget it when you pick up a pen.

Zhang Qiu

Zhang Qiuyi, a veteran, wears a hat like a broken fight. Sell a fortune in Yichang City and send a glass of wine with your life. Riding a horse for a long time, money into the urn. If a word is not borrowed, it has its own meaning. jirib Qiaoan fist, without fear of angry fight. Sitting here, I will be hungry. If you are not dead and strong, you have no time to worry about your hot hand. Scholar's Day withers for a long time, licks the hemorrhoids sweetly not to vomit. He who does not know what he wants, has nothing to discuss. I'd rather travel from it and chat to stimulate decay.

Interrogation of prisoners

he joined the army and sat in the office. According to the case, he chewed his teeth. Lead the prisoner to the court, and the prisoner's mouth is noisy. the spirit of joining the army is increasing, and his voice is even more incisive: "since ancient times, the wealth of the officials has been the blood of the people. He is an official in charge of the key, but he is selfish in fighting against theft. He is not like picking his moustache. When things are old and evil, they will stand up for themselves. Push poor see hair vein, that delicious tongue fight? " if a prisoner comes out bravely, please tell him to join the Army: "the heart of joining the army is like an eye, but you can't see it with your eyelashes. join the army in the field house, there are claims. When will you be able to join the army today? How much energy can we steal from the state? Shangguan is Rongyin. He has never been punished. If a prisoner believes that he is guilty today, he should guess the score when he joins the army. If he wants to be poor, why should he be alone? " When I join the army, I will be silent, but I will be ashamed to look back on the officials and soldiers. When I wrap up the Qin and books, I will go back to rest tomorrow.

Egret

He said that the egrets in front of the gate should also be known from here. You intend to get rid of the hook party, but you are afraid to get to you.

Spring in the suburbs

there is no spring in the city, and the elm and locust trees outside the city are half yellow. A good mountain is more suitable for snow cover, and the water is more suitable for Chuiyang. By the side of the warbler, the sun is warm as a human voice, and the wind on the grass makes the fragrance of medicine. I doubt that there is a good sentence at the head of the river, but it is boundless for you to find it.

Tell my heart (travel sorrow)

He never frowns. Everything is at leisure. Yuan Lai, however, has to worry about him. the river flows in the afterglow. Go to yo yo. Wind sad Landu, smoke light waves, where boat.

Vine picking music (Wang jianti)

Lu wine thin Handan Wai, xihedu bridge, South Vietnam sad. a million years old tune Hongteng, this ancient work is endless. last year, there was a shortage of rattan picking, but this year, there is a shortage of rattan picking. ten days after entering the mountain, he left and returned home. The fist unearthed from Xinteng is like a fern. The bamboo harvest in Qiyuan has been going on for a long time, but the vine harvest in Qiyuan has failed. this year, we will lose rattan to Huangdu, and next year, we will lose rattan to Bo and Wu.

Social evaluation

Liu Kezhuang of Song Dynasty said: "Zixi's poems are all high, not only poems. It came out a little later, and the envoys and pomen were not under Qin (Guan) and Chao (BU) (Houcun Shihua) has some shortcomings, such as a little lack of changes, some mistakes in refining words and sentences. Although learning from Dongpo, his achievements are not comparable. He is good at argumentative writing. His works, such as Mingzhi, chayan, compassion for the common customs, cunjiu, Zhengyou, and Yishang, are also well known by people of the time. Su Shi said: "there is no pleasure in a person's life, but when he writes an article, his writing will be full of twists and turns, which means that there is no pleasure in the world. Tang Geng's words are just the opposite:" poetry is the most difficult thing! I It's hard to write a poem. I've been chanting for days, and then I'll write a poem Tomorrow's reading will be full of flaws. It will be full of sorrows and corrections If you read the plural number of days, you will get sick again. If you do, count four. Tang Geng also has a famous saying: "poetry is more severe than benevolent words". If we use Zhu Xi's vivid words to extend it, it is: "if we look at words like cruel officials in prison, we can deduce them to the end. We will never forgive them. They are deeply used and have no human feelings.". Therefore, he was probably the most concise and compact poet at that time. Although he also made use of old allusions, it was not so bad, but he often made mistakes in refining words and sentences. ——In Qian Zhongshu's Anthology of Song poetry, Tang Geng was not a su disciple, but his literary thought was deeply influenced by Su Shi, and he also intended to learn from Su Shi in his poetry creation. His poetry teacher inherited Su Shi and became his own family. He practiced his poetry deliberately without losing his style, forming a unique style of meticulous and meticulous work. In prose creation, he was famous for his concise prose and meticulous discussion. He became a model of the article respected by the students and had a wide influence at that time. Tang Geng was not only one of the most important writers in Shu at the end of Northern Song Dynasty, but also a famous writer in Song Dynasty.
