Main works

Commune day

(2.1)

Turbid stream back to turbulence, green smoke get late light. As spring wine ripens, so does the mountain.

The drum is noisy, the forest is thick, and the lonely city is green. The swallow likes to go home before the flowers are ashamed.

notes

：

When people are in other places, they are also affected by the warm atmosphere of the day. The choice of words in the poems, such as "Nong", "Huo" and "Xi", shows the feeling of joy. This poem is composed of five rhythms. The chin couplet is a pair of flowing water, the neck couplet is not a pair of work, but the tail couplet is a antithesis. It is free and unrestrained, showing mature poetic skills. The commune in the poem is a spring commune. Before and after the equinox, the land is sacrificed to pray for a good harvest.

"Yuansui" sentence: it means to leave Gushan. It's also a kind of fate to spend a commune day in a different place.

Cuiwei: it refers to the air of haze.

Beijing Opera "the north wind blows hard"

Shi Yisheng is the protagonist of Beijing Opera "the north wind is tight"

On the one hand, he was a gentle native of Jiangnan, on the other hand, he was a lovely wife and son of the northern kingdom. On the other hand, he abandoned him, insulted him, despised him, and saved him. On the other hand, he respected him. At the time of the confrontation between the song and Jin Dynasties, when the Peking Opera "the north wind is tight", the playwright pushed Shi Yisheng, a native of Pucheng, Fujian Province, into a dilemma: either betraying the nurturing state of song, or betraying the nurturing state of song He failed to live up to the kindness of the state of Jin, and wandered between the two countries with delicate relations.

When Shi Yisheng visited the state of song as the Prime Minister of the state of Jin, Gu Lihan, the accompanying Deputy envoy, secretly investigated the frontier defense of the state of song and wanted to attack it unprepared. After learning of this, Shi Yisheng fell into the dilemma of whether to disclose information to the people of Song Dynasty, so he wrote a poem with hidden head and wrote the word "north wind tight" in his palm to warn the people of Song Dynasty. For him, the old country is holding a finger, pain drill into the heart, the new country is the deep understanding, kindness, responsibility. On the one hand, love and on the other hand, responsibility, together with his wife, children and father-in-law, will become a heavy debt on his shoulders. If the maintenance of song and Central Plains culture is out of his instinct, then the worry about Jin is a kind of debt repaying psychology.

Fate forced Shi Yisheng to a desperate situation. At last, Shi Yisheng frankly told the king that he wanted to give away the top secret information that the Jin army was about to attack the song by sending an envoy to the state of song, and was ready to apologize for his death. The Lord of Jin was so angry that he ordered to kill Shi Yisheng. Just at this time, the general who attacked the state of song returned to the dynasty. The Song Dynasty also sent people to make peace, and the relationship between song and Jin was relaxed. The gold Lord orders to call Shi Yisheng back, but can he escape from the abyss of death and get rid of his guilt? The south is my hometown, the north is my family. Where should I go? It is always a problem without solution. Shi Yisheng has nowhere to escape and is doomed to suffering.

In the specific situation set by the play, Shi Yisheng's biggest enemy is himself, and he falls into the moral conflict of various assumptions in his heart. If he is shameless enough, he can ignore his hometown, be his minister of the state of Jin, and enjoy his family; if he is merciless enough, he can abandon his wife and children after returning to the state of song, and never return to the state of Jin; if he is shameless enough, he can no longer go north to prevent the state of Jin from sending troops, which saves a lot of heartbreak. But these are not Shi Yisheng, a southerner influenced by Confucian culture, whose four words of etiquette, righteousness, honesty and shame always come first. Betrayal and betrayal again, are not because of personal interests, understand his wife Biao Yan said his heart: "do not know that he is not for fame, nor for high office, but for what?" Shi Yisheng transcends the individual interests and the fetters of the interests of the two countries. He uses the Confucian core spirit of "benevolence and justice" to measure and choose. Therefore, he is in trouble and bound in action. But it is precisely through this dilemma that he constructs a perfect Confucian moral world. Honesty, benevolence, gratitude and courage to take responsibility are actually the same It is the common pursuit of mankind.

In order to pursue the perfect moral concept, Shi Yisheng can even give up his life, but he is wrong. This kind of responsibility is just beyond one's shoulder. What can a humble civil servant afford in front of the big machine of a country with opposite interests? Although his death can delay the pace of war, it can not stop the final war and solve any problems, leaving scars in the hearts of relatives and friends. Personal destiny is intertwined with the interests of the two countries. Any choice will benefit one side and harm the other. There is no policy of "two favors". Whether it is left or right, it is wrong and a crime for him. In the face of this dilemma, the people in the play don't know what to do, the audience don't know what to do, and even the narrator of the story, the playwright, doesn't know what to do. Therefore, although this play traces back the reasons for why, there is never an answer to what to do.

What shakes people's hearts is that Shi Yisheng's restless mind is always in a dilemma. In the process of suffering and choice, he creates a strong fatalistic sadness, and creates a deep and dense atmosphere of pain that is hard to breathe, which makes Beijing Opera "the north wind is tight" take on the tragic character.
