The sun makes the river brighter than the fire, and the spring makes the river green like blue. Tell me what is good about it.

It is from "Recalling Jiangnan" by Bai Juyi, a poet in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

The scenery in Jiangnan is very beautiful, and the picturesque scenery has long been familiar. When spring comes, the sun rises from the river, the flowers on the river are brighter than red, and the green river is greener than the blue grass. How can we make people not miss Jiangnan?

Bai Juyi once worked as a secretariat of Hangzhou, stayed in Hangzhou for two years, and later worked as a secretariat of Suzhou for more than a year. When he was young, he roamed the south of the Yangtze River and lived in Suzhou and Hangzhou. It should be said that he knows a lot about Jiangnan, so he was deeply impressed. Twelve years after he returned to Luoyang from Suzhou, he wrote these three poems recalling Jiangnan at the age of 67, which shows that the scenery of Jiangnan is still vivid in his mind.

It's not easy to sum up the spring scenery in Jiangnan in a dozen words, but Bai Juyi skillfully did it. Instead of describing the flowers and warblers commonly used in the south of the Yangtze River, he began to write with the river as the center, showing the bright and dazzling spring scenery in the south of the Yangtze River through the contrast between "red wins fire" and "green as blue". In the poems of the great poet Du Fu, we can often see descriptions in different tones, such as "two orioles singing green willows, a row of egrets soaring into the sky" and "Jiang Niao is too white, and the mountains are green and the waters are white". Two different colors set each other off to make the poem bright and picturesque. Bai Juyi took the same road, which can also be seen from his poems, such as "The sunset glow burns red, the clear sky is bluer than blue", "Spring grass is more dreamy when it is green, and the sunset glow is red near Chang 'an", "The green waves are east and west, and the red column is 390 bridges". Therefore, in Bai Juyi's works, the spring scenery in the south of the Yangtze River has been colored since the first day, and the flowers and rivers in the river have formed people's imaginary pictures because of the way of drying, dyeing and setting off. The colors are gorgeous and eye-catching, and there is no need to add more associations. Spring scenery in the south of the Yangtze River has come to my face.

This word describes the spring scenery in Jiangnan, and the first sentence is "Jiangnan is good". With a simple and vivid word "good", I captured all the beauty of spring scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, and the author's praise and yearning were also included. At the same time, it is precisely because of "goodness" that we can "remember" endlessly. Therefore, this sentence has an allusion to "can you forget Jiangnan" and is related to it. The second sentence "I used to be familiar with the scenery" points out that the "good" scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is not a rumor, but the author's personal experience and personal feelings when he went out to graze in Hangzhou. This not only implements the word "good", but also takes care of the word "memory", which is a wonderful pen and ink to connect the meaning of an article. Three or four sentences vividly interpret the "goodness" of Jiangnan, highlighting the bright colors of jianghua and the red and green rivers, giving people a dazzling impression. Among them, there are contrasts between the same color and different colors, which fully shows the author's good coloring skills. At the end of the article, I collected the whole poem with Can I Forget Jiangnan, which not only expressed the author born in Luoyang's infinite admiration and nostalgia for the spring scenery in Jiangnan, but also created a long lasting charm, which brought the reader into a tearful realm.
