Which poem does Laugh with Princess of the World of mortals come from?

"Riding a princess and laughing in the world of mortals" comes from Du Mu's "Three Poems of Crossing Huaqing Palace, Part One" in the late Tang Dynasty.

Original text:

Looking back at Chang 'an, Mount Li is like a pile of splendid scenery, and the gates of Huaqing Palace on the top of the mountain are opened in turn.

As soon as I rode on the smile of smoke and smoke, no one knew that the fresh fruit litchi was sent from the south.

Make an appreciative comment

This poem chooses to send litchi to the imperial concubine Feitian, vividly revealing that the rulers, in order to satisfy their appetite, do not hesitate to mobilize the masses, wasting people and money, and effectively castigate the arrogance and extravagance of Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei. The first two sentences of the poem pave the way for the background, and the last two sentences introduce the theme of the description and prompt the theme of the poem. The juxtaposition of the two concrete images of "galloping the world of mortals" and "princess laughing" makes people think and leaves suspense. Although the word "unknown" is three words, it is intriguing and intriguing.

This epic was written by Du Mulu when he arrived in Chang 'an via Huaqing Palace, feeling that Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei were extravagant and misunderstood their own country. Huaqing Palace was once a playground for Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and Yang Guifei. According to "Biography of Yang Guifei in the New Tang Dynasty", "My concubine loves lychee, and she must be born, so she rode it for thousands of miles, and her taste has not changed, and she has arrived in the capital". As a result, many policemen were exhausted and the post horse fell dead on the way from Sichuan to Chang 'an. The quatrains crossing the Qing Palace intercepted this historical fact, attacked the arrogance, extravagance and ignorance of feudal rulers, satirized the present with history and warned the monarch.

"Chang 'an Looking Back at Embroidered Piles" describes the scenery the poet saw when he looked back at Huaqing Palace in Chang 'an. The word "looking back" is not only a true writing, but also a link between the past and the future. The poet overlooks Mount Li in the capital, where there are lush trees and flowers, and countless layers of majestic buildings are hidden among them, just like a pile of splendid scenery. Suddenly, a sense of responsibility for reviewing and reflecting on history arises spontaneously, and a sense of history arises spontaneously. It is the following three sentences, "A thousand doors open at the top of the mountain", which is a link between the preceding and the following and is a review of history. The opening of Mount Li's "Thousands of Gates on the Peak" describes the luxury of Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei's life in those years, and sets a question for readers: Why should the "Thousands of Gates on the Peak" be opened? The last two sentences, "The world of mortals laughs when riding a princess, and no one knows it is litchi", are the answers. It turns out that this is all caused by Yang Guifei. When she saw "riding the world of mortals" galloping past, she knew that the litchi that gave her appetite had arrived, so she "laughed" happily.

Others thought it was an urgent document, but who thought it would be fresh litchi in Fuzhou immediately! The conclusion of the poem is not only the crowning touch of the whole poem, but also the bane of "An Shi Rebellion".

The purpose of reciting the anecdote of Tianbao is to warn the later monarchs not to delay the state affairs because of their pursuit of pleasure. However, the poet did not write about the tragic situation of An Shi, Xuanzong's hasty escape, Ma Youpo's performance, nor did he list Xuanzong's amusement, extravagance and luxury life. But to give litchi a thousand miles to win a smile from the imperial concubine.

Discover historical problems in nuances. "Riding a princess and laughing in the world of mortals" makes a wonderful contrast between a poor official who is galloping on horseback and a smiling princess, and expresses such a serious historical theme with a word "smile", which is highly generalized and typical.

The whole poem begins with "looking back", setting suspense at different levels, and finally uncovering the mystery with "no one knows". This not only exposes the absurdity that Emperor Tang Ming did everything he could to please his favorite concubine, but also echoes the unusual atmosphere in front of him. The whole poem is full of difficult words, beautiful and delicate, lively and natural, and profound, implicit and powerful. It is indeed a masterpiece in the quatrains of the Tang Dynasty.

One of "Crossing Huaqing Palace": Chang 'an looks back at the embroidered pile, and the top of the mountain opens a thousand times. As soon as I rode on the smile of smoke and smoke, no one knew that the fresh fruit litchi was sent from the south. Different from the above two poems, this poem uses a special "litchi" image, which makes the imperial concubine proud of her love, and connects the absurdity of the emperor's doing everything he can to please her with the sweat and misery of the riding club. Through the unique perspective of seeing the big from the small, the whole poem chooses the dramatic conflict between "riding the world of mortals" and "concubine laughing" to set off the central theme of the whole poem, and its wonderful conception and layout are amazing. Of course, there are many other special writing methods that we need to savor slowly.

If we only look at the first three sentences, "Chang 'an looks back and embroiders in piles, the top of the mountain is blooming, and a princess laughs and rides the world of mortals", I'm afraid our readers will have a lot of suspense without looking at the last sentence. First, we have no idea why we should look back at Mount Li from Chang 'an. Furthermore, we don't understand why the "1000 doors on the top of the mountain" should be opened one by one; Besides, I'm afraid we don't even know what "riding the world of mortals" is for. Why does "concubines" laugh ... The poem was written by Zhang Xianzhi, so when we read the last sentence "No one knows it's litchi", we will suddenly realize that "riding a horse" is going to Huaqing Palace, and it is full of doors, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. But this is what we really don't know. A negative sentence not only solves the suspense, but also makes the finishing point and contains profound meaning.

After reading the first sentence, the emperor was busy in Chang 'an, the capital at that time, and the concubine wanted to stay in the capital, so the people who flew litchi went straight to Chang 'an, while the emperor and the concubine were having fun in Lishan! This is the scene of "Chang 'an looking back and embroidering in the pile". The second sentence is "pile embroidery" to write about the building of Huaqing Palace in Lishan Mountain. At this time, "one ride" is close to Mount Li, only to see "a thousand times at the top of the mountain"; People on the mountain have seen the "world of mortals" flying and "a ride" coming, so they heard the emperor order the opening of "thousands of doors on the peak" for the second time. As a result, there was a dramatic scene of "laughing at the world of mortals". On the one hand, Mercedes-Benz rolled up the "world of mortals" day and night and sent "one journey" lychees, sweating like rain and suffering; On the other hand, the imperial concubine got fresh litchi. She smiled and was overjoyed. In contrast, there is a silent condemnation of luxury life, although silent condemnation may be worth a thousand words. The first three poems didn't mention litchi. If every sentence is about litchi as analyzed above, it will be too dull.

This is just as Wu Qiao's "Poetry around the Furnace" said: "Poetry has implications, especially for those who have no opinions on telling stories." The artistic charm of Du Mu's poems lies in its implication and profundity. In the poem, I don't understand Xuanzong's dissolute lust, imperial concubine's love and arrogance. However, the sharp contrast between "Galloping the World of Red Dust" and "Laughing at the Noble Lady" has received much stronger artistic effect than directly expressing her opinions. The word "princess laughs" has a profound meaning. This can't help but remind people of the story that Zhou Youwang's "war drama princes" eventually led to national subjugation in the Spring and Autumn Period. The word "unknown" is also thought-provoking In fact, "litchi lai" is not unknown, at least "concubine" knows, "riding it" knows, and there is another emperor who doesn't mention it in his poem. This writing is to show that this matter is very important and urgent, and outsiders have no reason and no chance to know. This not only exposes the absurdity of the emperor's doing everything he can to please his favorite concubine, but also echoes the unusual atmosphere rendered earlier. The whole poem does not need difficult words, allusions and carvings. Simple and natural, profound, implicit.
