Second, the surname:

The earliest ancestors

There is a famous idiom in Liu's Historical Records called "Sit with your knees folded". This sage gentleman, praised by Mencius as "the sum of saints", is the ancestor of Liu in China. Liu Xiahui was a native of the State of Lu in the Spring and Autumn Period, and was a descendant of Duke Zhou of Rites and Music. Of course, the surname of Liu in later generations originated from an ancient surname of the State of Lu.

origin

About the origin of Liu's surname, it is recorded in the Code of Surnames-"Duke of Zhou and Sun Gongzi Exhibition, Sun Wuhai's exhibition is based on the word Wang and his son, and the exhibition birds are collected under Liu, hence the name Liu. Lu destroyed the official Chu, Qin merged with the world, and Liu moved to Hedong, where he solved the problem. There was a Liu case at the end of Qin Dynasty, and Hui descendants also came. " From this record, the ins and outs of Liu's surname are clear at a glance-he is a descendant of Lu after Duke Zhou. He used to be a bird, but later he changed his surname to a vitamin because he ate under Liu. After Qin Shihuang unified the world, Liu's descendants who originally lived in Lu moved to Hedong, and their descendants continued from generation to generation, eventually becoming a famous family in Hedong, and then multiplying from here to all parts of the country. Hedong at that time referred to a large area east of the Yellow River in Shanxi Province.

celebrity

The first Liu family to get ahead in history is the Liu family in the Southern Dynasties, which started with Liu Shilong, the general of Wuwei in Liu and Song Dynasties, about 2,000 years ago. The Southern Dynasties were prominent officials, just like a noble family.

The performance of Liu Gongchu, Liu Gongquan and Liu Zhongying, the son of Liu Gongchu, in the Tang Dynasty made the Liu family shine even more brightly and became a famous surname. Liu Gongquan, who is familiar to everyone, is a calligrapher with high attainments. His Mysterious Pagoda Monument is the most widely circulated, and it is still a model for calligraphers. He not only writes well, but also learns widely and better. Later, he was named Duke of Hedong by Tang Gaozong, and he and his brothers and nephews were called "Three Masters", honoring their ancestors and leaving endless glory for future generations.

Since then, Liu's celebrities have been in the history books, such as Liu Yong, a romantic genius in the Song Dynasty, and Liu Zongyuan, a great scholar who contributed to China's ancient literature.

Third, ancient poetry:

Liuyong Author: He

Jasper dressed as a tree, hanging down ten thousand green silk tapestries. I don't know who cut the thin leaves, but the spring breeze in February is like scissors.

Make an appreciative comment

This poem sings the spring breeze through the willow tree, compares the spring breeze to scissors, says that she is the creator of beauty, and praises her for cutting out the spring. This poem is full of people's joy in early spring. The novelty and appropriateness of metaphor and metaphor is the success of this poem. "Notes on Tang Poetry" says: "Things are wonderful, but the meaning is soft."

This is an object-chanting poem about willow trees in early spring and February.

Where should I start writing willow? There is no doubt that the beauty of its image lies in Naman's long branches. Once a year, it grows new green leaves and hangs down, which has a charming posture in the spring breeze. This is something that everyone can appreciate. In classical poetry, we often see this kind of image beauty to describe and compare a beautiful woman's slim figure and graceful waist branches. This poem is original. Turn it over. "Jasper pretends to be a tall tree". At first, Liu Yang appeared as a beautiful woman: "Thousands of threads of moss tapestry hang down", and these countless threads became her nepotism. The word "Gao" in the previous sentence sets off the graceful charm of beautiful Tingting; The word "hanging" in the next sentence means that the slender waist is swaying in the wind. There are no words "willow" and "waist branch" in the poem, but the beauty embodied by weeping willows and willows in early spring is vividly written. "Southern History" said that Liu Yong was the secretariat of Yizhou and presented several Shu Liu plants. "These stripes are very long and look like silk threads." Emperor Wu of Qi planted these willows in the Taichang cloud and in front of the temple, saying that they were "romantic and lovely". Here, wicker is called "green silk tapestry", which may be the hidden use of this famous allusion about willow. But it's a waste, and you can't see any traces.

"Jasper makeup" leads to "moss tapestry" and "who cut it". Finally, the intangible "spring breeze" is also vividly portrayed by "scissors". These "scissors" cut out bright green flowers and plants and put on a new makeup for the earth. It is the symbol of natural vitality and the inspiration of spring to people's beauty. From Jasper Makeup to Scissors, we can see a series of processes of the poet's artistic conception. A series of images in poetry are closely linked.

Some people may think: There were many famous beauties in ancient China, Liu. Why should we compare them with Jasper? I think this has two meanings: first, the name Jasper is related to the color of willow, and the words "green" and "green" in the next sentence complement each other. Second, Jasper will always leave a young impression in people's hearts. When it comes to Jasper, people will associate it with the popular Jasper Song "When Jasper Broke a Melon" and Jasper's Little Family Daughter (Xiao Yi Picking Lotus Poems) and other poems. Jasper has almost become a general term for young and beautiful women in ancient literary works. Comparing willow with jasper, people will imagine that this beauty has not yet reached its heyday; This willow is still a willow in early spring, and it is not the time to hide crows with dense branches and leaves; This is also related to the "thin leaves" and "February spring breeze" below.

Author Liu:

It's sunny on the shore, so it's hard to say goodbye. I'm still hesitating about my own flight, and I'm trying to solve the problem of tripping over passers-by.

Make an appreciative comment

This poem is about a farewell scene on a sunny day in late spring, outside Chang 'an and on the bank of Bashui. However, instead of writing your own farewell, write someone else's farewell; It is not a farewell for ordinary couples or relatives and friends, but a touching scene that advocates women's farewell. All this does not appear in the form of direct writing, but in the form of metaphor, with the help of the image of spring willow, so compared with the general farewell poem, this willow-chanting poem is very innovative in thought and art

The poem entitled "Liu" is to recite Liu's meaning, so it uses fu throughout, but it is also interesting. Its metaphor is flexible and ingenious, and if it is separated, it is better than its shape. The first sentence is the rise of scenery, the prosperity of fu, and the farewell of Liu; On a sunny spring day, by the Qinshui Bridge, groups of people left and folded willows to bid farewell. In the second sentence, the wicker brushed, leaning against each other, and the metaphor was clear, and the last two sentences were emotional again. "Snuggle and depend on each other" describes the graceful figure of weeping willows in the spring breeze, which makes people want to see the intimate scenes of young men and women when they leave. They are reluctant to go, lingering in the spring. However, unlike relatives and friends, they are not husband and wife. They seem to be lovers in love, and they seem to understand each other that they will never meet again after parting, and they should enjoy every moment before parting. Anyone with a discerning eye will know at a glance that this is advocating women to bid farewell to their lovers. In the last two sentences, I feel that flying catkins are intertwined with wickers. I use willows to describe people, point out the late spring season, and reveal the identity of both sides. Poets use "flying catkins" to imply that such women can't grasp their own destiny, and use "hanging silk to trip up passers-by" to point out that they can't and don't understand the feelings of passers-by, let alone stay with lingering feelings. "Struggle" leads to "How", and the last sentence is "Struggle and trip over a long strip", which means the same thing, pointing out that they are prostitutes. Generally speaking, poetry is poking fun at these involuntarily advocating women and pitying them for coquetry in vain. But the poet's attitude is sympathetic and euphemistic, and there is an unspeakable feeling in it.

In the Tang Dynasty, scholars and women advocates were two active classes in a prosperous city. Their grades and positions vary greatly, but they have various relationships and many affairs; There is also some kind of fate and similar experience. Bai Juyi, a famous prostitute in Chang 'an, and Bai Juyi, a famous prostitute in Jiangzhou, have similar experiences and fates, and all shall be well. In this poem "Willow", Luo Yin intentionally or unintentionally mocked the meeting and parting of others, revealing a bitter mood of self-mockery. Although the poet regrets that women can't help themselves, they also know that their fate is also involuntary, and the future "may not be as good as people" (Luo Yin's "Cloud Shadow of Giving Prostitutes"). Therefore, in the image of floating catkins and lingering willows, it is not only advocating the fate of women's own families and other passers-by, but all the misfortunes of "the end of the world is reduced to people", including the poet himself, which is a deep sigh for the bitterness of life.

This poem is full of words, each sentence is more appropriate than the other, and the meaning is obvious. At the same time, it is promoted by comparison and leads to discussion. Therefore, Liu Fu's metaphor, description and discussion hit the nail on the head, which was seamless and interesting. In the quatrains of chanting willow in Tang Dynasty, it is also unique. (Ni Qixin)

Author Liu: Li Shangyin

I used to chase the east wind, just like a dancer dancing at a banquet. It was a spring full of flowers, and people were playing in Leyuan Scenic Area. How can I be willing to go to clear autumn, accompanied by sunset and cicada singing!

The poem is about the willow in autumn, but the poet does not start from now, but remembers its spring scene first, and then returns to the willow in front of him. You see, in the paradise where women are like clouds, in the bustling spring, graceful spring willows and dancing girls are combined in a lively dance feast, and you can't tell who the dancer is, what the willow branches are and how beautiful the artistic conception is! The autumn willow in front of us is the opposite. "Clear Autumn", "Sunset" and "Qiu Chan" touch the desolation of the environment, and the prosperity of spring willows reflects the decline of autumn willows. The more prosperous and proud the spring is, the more haggard the autumn willows are. It is through this strong contrast that the poet expressed his lament over the sparse autumn willows. The whole poem is all about willow, but there is no word "willow". Every sentence is about scenery, and every sentence is lyric. When the poet was young, he was full of fantasy, self-confidence and lofty aspirations, just like a spring willow full of vitality. However, due to the partisan struggle, the poet has been living a sinking life. The disparity between prosperity and poverty in his poems is a true portrayal of the poet's life experience of self-injury and self-sighing.

Literary image:

From the Book of Songs and "I have gone far away, Liu Yiyi", Liu has formed an indissoluble bond with China's poems. Only in the places where poets live in concentrated communities in Li Shangyin's Collection, there are nearly twenty poems with Wei Liu's proposition. There are also "Listen to An Wanshan to play the flute, and the flowers are bright and spring", Wang Wei's "Song of Luoyang Girls", the pavilions and pavilions in the paintings, the peach blossoms and the green willows, Du's "Walking in the Early Spring", and "Changzhou Land", etc., Yunkai Haishu, Liu Mei Chunjiang Crossing, Cen Can's "Daming Palace Morning" work "With Jia Zhishe People", flowers meet swords and Wei's Eastern Suburb and Liu Diao Feng Qing are full of personal emotional experience and life experience of poets in past dynasties.

Yiyi Liu Yang, she put aside her feelings and never complained.

"Liu" means "stay", and "Liu" and "stay" are homophonic, so the ancients "folded Liu" and stayed together, indicating that friends are reluctant to part. It was first seen in the Book of Songs, and it was the first time to express love for willow and hurt people with willow.

Luo Yin's Willow: "The sun is shining on the shore, so it's hard to say goodbye, and it's hard to lean on each other in spring. My own flock is still uncertain, and I am still trying to solve the problem of tripping over passers-by? " It is a touching scene of prostitutes leaving each other on a sunny day in late spring, outside Chang 'an and on the bank of Bashui, with the image of spring willow.

In general, poets take "willow" as the image in their poems, and they all think of folding branches and giving each other gifts. For example, in Shi Jianwu's "Folding Willow", "Seeing willows and willows on the roadside is a new one." I'm going to fold last year this year, and I won't leave others last year. "Dai Shulun's" Willow on the Dike ""Willow is weeping, and spring comes to weave separation. The place where pedestrians climb, now my heart is almost broken "; Bai Juyi's "Remembering Willow" once planted willow in Jiangnan, and bid farewell to Jiangnan twice in spring. I remember I don't know who climbed on the green river bank far away, and so on. And Yong's "Willow by the River": "The ancient embankment curled up and a tree smoked. If it's silk, keep the boat. "The idea is novel, the imagination is strange, and it is suitable for the scene. The heroine in the poem not only does not fold the willow to bid farewell, but hopes that the willow will continue to be tied to her lover's boat and will never be separated. It's really ingenious.

Jasper Spring Liu Manchun

"Green Willow" written by Xiao Yi in the Southern Dynasties: "Long strips hang down to the ground, and light flowers chase the wind. The dew is suspicious, and the leaves are small and not covered. " The poet focused on the flowers, colors and leaves of the willow, grasped the word "green" and described the feeling that the willow had just blossomed in Ye Fei, which was clear and vivid. Gao Ding's "Village Residence" in the Qing Dynasty: "The grass grows in February, and the willows on the embankment are drunk with spring smoke. The children came back from school early and were busy flying kites in the east wind. " Wrote a rural spring scenery full of life.

Among Liu's classical poems of chanting spring, He's "Singing Willow" is the most famous: "Jasper is a tree, and thousands of strands of green silk hang down. I don't know who cut off the thin leaves, and the spring breeze in February is like scissors. " This poem, contrary to the previous description of the slim figure of a beautiful woman in the image of a willow tree, turns the willow tree into a beautiful "jasper" and vividly depicts the charming posture of the long branches and bright green leaves of the willow tree in the spring breeze with anthropomorphic methods.

The feeling of fleeting life

Li Shangyin is a poet who loves to use the image of "willow" in past dynasties. His "Willow" said: "I used to dance in the east wind and swim in the spring garden. How can I bring the sunset and cicada to the clear autumn? " Write the autumn willow withering with the contrast of spring and Vitamin, and the prosperity of spring willow reflects the autumn willow withering; The more prosperous and proud the spring is, the more haggard the autumn willows are. Li Shangyin was a scholar when he was young, and he had the great ambition of "returning to heaven and earth and entering the boat". However, due to the feud between the parties, he sank to the next position for a long time. At this time, he mourned his dead wife and lamented the road ahead. His mood can be imagined. Isn't the autumn willow in the poem a vivid portrayal of the poet's self-injury and sigh?

Bai Juyi's Qin Lou Xi Lao Liu: "Half-rotted trees in the wind make many lovers immediately. Kaiyuan is a willow, and Changqing is the spring of two years. " Sketch a self-portrait with simple strokes ―― a picture of "The Breeze Appears at First". Another of his poems, "Yang Liuzhi Ci", wrote: "The spring breeze is softer than gold and softer than silk. In the wild garden in the west corner of Yongfeng, no one belongs to anyone all day. " Writing a willow tree with lush foliage and graceful dancing is a desolate and cold situation, which is clearly a feeling of political corruption and talent burying at that time. The willow tree here is obviously a portrayal of the poet himself in a small group relationship.

"Autumn Willow" by Gao Qi, a poet in the Ming Dynasty, said: "It's hard to draw a long line. At this time, I am worried about killing Sima Huan, and the rain and autumn wind are full of Hannan. " Describe the withered willow branches, which have lost their green and soft appearance in the past, so as to recall the characters and express the feelings that the years are fleeting and things are more frequent.

Poets have always used "willow" to write poems, but few people write winter willow, but Lu Guimeng in Tang Dynasty did not. His "Winter Willow": "The willow pavilion leans against the savage window, and the broken strip is by the river. It is the wind in first frost that makes a pair of cold gulls. " It is about the winter willow withered in the cold wind, which embodies the poet's feelings of self-injury.

Romantic dream lover

Li Shangyin's poem "Giving Willow" depicts the charm of spring willow: "The shadow of the platform is hidden, and the road is more uneven. Many people have heard the praise of Liu Feng to the extreme, and now what they see is just the same graceful. The charming willow color has reached the bridge, and my heart is behind me when I watch the willow color cut off and extend across the bridge to the long beach. Endure the flowers like snow, and the brothel flies the wine flag. " The whole poem uses line drawing, the willow color is bright or dark, the soft strips hang down, the willow color is light and graceful, the flowers fly like snow, and the prosperity of the spring willow is written to the extreme. If you think about it carefully, you will find that they write not only willows, but also people. Between the lines, it seems that the beautiful image of a gentle and graceful lady is swaying and graceful. Singing willow is to sing people, to be reluctant to part with willow, and to be attached to the one you love.

Another poem by Li Shangyin, "Give a willow a 10% discount from the pavilion" (1), "I'll give you a toast for the time being, so don't frown and narrow your waist. There is only one thing before the end of the world, and the spring breeze strives to cherish the strip? " Comfort your lover when you write a farewell letter to him. You're already worried about your waist, where can you stand any more injuries? And before this painful farewell, how can we cherish the long branches and prevent those who are full of parting pain from trying their best to climb and analyze? "Pity" and "loss" echo each other, because frowning waist is not only a positive description of the girl, but also a pun on the willow. Willow leaves are more than beautiful eyebrows, and willow body is more than beautiful waist. This poem first teaches people not to fold in a metaphorical way, and then turns to explicitly say that it should be folded, firm and full of pessimism.

A flatterer who flatters and flatters

The poem "weeping willows" by Tang Dynasty poet Tang has another meaning: "Who dares to underestimate the enemy if the spring breeze slips?" There is no reason to plant on the banks of the Chu River, and you can't learn on an empty stomach. "This poem not only describes the graceful, slender, light, seductive and affectionate weeping willow, but also involves the story of King Chu Ling's" loving a thin waist and starving many maids ".It is a unique poem of" chanting willow ",and its satirical object is directed at the shameless villain's invitation to flatter and corrupt the political affairs, which is gentle and sharp and has profound implications. Ceng Gong, a poet in the Song Dynasty, wrote "Singing Willow": "Chaos is still yellow, and leaning on the east wind will be crazy. I wonder if there is frost in heaven and earth. "The poet satirizes the adulterer who clings to the powerful and gains power with the image of dancing wildly in Liu Xufei.

"With smoke, everything falls" (followed by Li Shangyin, Jiao Liu, who stands upright in China's poetry circle, has become a cultural symbol and emotional medium, and has fascinated countless literati.

Celebrity and Liu

Jiang

Spring is coming, Liu. Willow is a symbol of spring. China folk have the custom of planting, loving and chanting willows since ancient times. Throughout the ages, many celebrities have formed an indissoluble bond with Liu, leaving many anecdotes.

The talented women in the Jin Dynasty had deep feelings for Liu. One snowy day in a certain year, her uncle Xie An asked: What is it like when it snows? Someone answered on the spot: like silvery white salt scattered from the air. On the other hand, Xie Daowen replied: Like catkins blown by the wind. Xie An gasp in admiration. Later generations called talented women "catkins", out of this code.

The great poet Tao Yuanming loves chrysanthemums as much as his life, and loves willows very much. He planted five willows in front of his house and called himself "Mr. Wuliu".

In 605 AD, the Bianhe River from Kaifeng to Yangzhou was opened, and tens of millions of willows were planted on the riverbank. The emperor's surname is Yang, and the imperial gift weeping willow's surname is Yang, and a list is posted, telling people to plant a living willow tree and enjoy a fine silk. When the people heard about it, they scrambled to plant it, which kept liuhong busy for a while.

Liu Zongyuan, a writer in the Tang Dynasty, not only personally planted willows, but also strongly advocated the widespread planting of willows around Liujiang and Liuzhou. When Liu Cuicheng was prosperous, the trees were blooming, the people were jubilant, and the scenery was better than before, he was in high spirits and wrote a poem to laugh at himself: "The history of Liuci in Liuzhou was planted by the Liuhe River."

In the year of Zhenguan 15 (AD 64 1 year), when Princess Wencheng married Zangpu Songzangambu of Tubo, she personally brought willow from Chang 'an and planted it in front of Jokhang Temple in Lhasa. These willows are called "Liu Tang" by later generations.

When Su Dongpo, a poet of the Song Dynasty, was appointed as a well-known poet in Hangzhou, he built a long embankment when he presided over the dredging of the West Lake, and then planted several willows on it. A few years later, the willow cage yarn made the West Lake more beautiful. This is the first of the ten scenic spots in the West Lake-"Su Causeway Xiao Chun".

Ouyang Xiu, a writer and historian in the Song Dynasty, was deeply in love with Liu Rubao. When he was the magistrate of Yangzhou, he dug earth and planted willows in Pingshan Hall, and wrote in his poem: "If you don't plant willows in front of the hall, there will be a few spring breeze." Later generations called weeping willows "European public willows", and whenever green willows became shady, tourists gathered.

Pu Songling, a famous writer in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, lived in spring when Zizhou was full of wells and villages, planted willows by the spring in front of his house, and called himself "Liu Quan lay man".

Feng Zikai, a famous painter, planted a willow tree on the wall of his living room when he was teaching in chunhui middle school, Shangyu, Zhejiang. When the young tree was full of vitality and personable, he happily named his living room "Xiaoliuwu".

/kloc-in the spring of 0/943, Comrade He Long and the guards planted six weeping willows in the compound where the headquarters was located, and placed stone tables and benches in the middle of the weeping willows, which Mr. He humorously called "Liu Liu Pavilion".

Liu Suliu's songs have different feelings.

The spring breeze is warm and the willow branches are swaying. Du Fu, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, said: "Spring is a willow", saying that willow is the messenger of spring. Since ancient times, willow has been deeply loved by people for its graceful style, and has formed many customs and anecdotes related to willow.

The custom of wandering among willows. In ancient China, there was a custom of inserting willow branches in front of every house on the Cold Food Festival. In the Song Dynasty, this custom became more prosperous, not only inserting willow branches in front of the door, but also wearing a wicker hat ring on the head to show vitality. There has long been a folk proverb that "there is no willow in Qingming, and beauty becomes a bright eye". Wear a wicker hat ring on your head, sit in a car full of wicker, and go for an outing in the suburbs. The color of willow brings spring to people's hearts.

The custom of breaking willows to bid farewell. There are two meanings here: first, the willow is so long, which means that it can flourish wherever it floats; Second, "Liu" and "Liu" are homophonic, and folding Liu means "Liu". According to historical records, the custom of folding willows to bid farewell began in the Han Dynasty. Wang Wei, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote in the Song of Weicheng: "Weicheng is rainy and dusty, and the guest house is green and willow-colored; Advise you to drink one more glass of wine. There is no reason to go out to Yangguan in the west. " This farewell masterpiece has been told by people for thousands of years.

The custom of giving willows as a symbol of love. Spring willows are graceful and wispy, and have been regarded as a symbol of continuous love since ancient times. Sending a willow tree can not only convey feelings, but also express loyal love. "Chun Qing has long wicker and long flowers." . Since ancient times, spring willows have become the theme of praising love in literati's works. Lonely in the Tang Dynasty, the poem "Guandu Liu Ge" said: "A distant guest folds a willow, and even two people are affectionate", which shows that lovers pour out their inner lingering love in a willow branch in Liu Xiahui.

One of the strange things about Liu Yang is that it has an indissoluble bond with many historical allusions. In 605 AD, Yang Di ordered the excavation of the economic canal and planted willows on both sides of the levee. Yang guang ordered the people to plant a living willow tree, give it a fine silk, and name the willow tree Yang. Bai Juyi dedicated himself to this matter in the poem "Sui Di Bridge": "In the great cause, there was a son of heaven, with Liu Chengxing planted by the flowing water, the Yellow River and Huaihe River in the west, and the green shadow was 1,500 miles."

Interestingly, this ancient military camp also has a soft spot for Liu Jing. According to the "Warring States Policy", Yang, an archer of Chu State, has a unique skill, which can "shoot the willow leaves with a hundred paces and hit the target with a hundred shots". As a result, "a hundred steps through a poplar" is famous far and near. When Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, Qiu Zhou Yafu was stationed in Liu Xi, Xianyang, and the military camp was called "Liu Ying" from now on; Tao Kan was stationed in Wuchang, and willows were planted everywhere in the camp. A captain stole willows and transplanted them into a private garden. Tao Kan asked him, "This is the willow tree in the west gate of Wuchang. Why did you come here? " A surname had to return to the original wall. Since then, Liu has added the alias of "Official Liu".
