The author of "Helpless Flowers Fall"

A new song and a glass of wine, the weather was old last year. When will the sunset come back?

There is nothing to do, flowers bloom and fall, and it seems familiar that Yan returns. Wandering alone in the small garden, fragrant path.

This word is one of Yan Shu's representative works, which basically represents Yan Shu's artistic style. His collection of words is called Zhu Yu's Ci, which is an apt name. There are many works in Zhu Yu's Ci, which are round as pearls and crystal clear as jade. At the beginning, there were many students who liked Yan Shu's Ci on the stage in China. This word clearly means to be pregnant with people, but it doesn't care about people's language. This is a masterpiece with the scenery as the background.

However, the reason why this word has been passed down through the ages is that the essence is still in the link of "helpless flowers falling, deja vu".

This kind of association is basically composed of function words. As we all know, it is easier to pair with real words, but it is not so easy to use empty word. Therefore, when Zhuo talked about this connection in Ci Tong, he said that "it is easy to practice, but it is difficult to work in vain, and there is no difference in the beauty of law". Qian Zhongshu also said in Tan Yi Lu that the so-called "antithesis method" is to match the language and build a family. The more you can make a difference, the more you will see the inner beauty of the poet. "

Although it is composed of empty words, it has substantial, thought-provoking and suggestive content, which makes people feel more valuable. This couplet writes out all the delicate feelings in people's hearts that are not at the bottom of the pen, and tells the laws of nature. The success lies in that the author is good at capturing the instant feelings and describing them on the philosophical level.

"Helplessness" is the author's feelings, feelings and sighs, and "falling flowers" is a common phenomenon in nature and an objective law that does not depend on human will. In the face of falling flowers, I can't help feeling sorry when I think of the disappearance of spring and the change of life. However, there is nothing the author can do about it, and he can only call it "helpless". The "flowers" here not only refer to the flowers that bloom and fall in spring, but also remind people of many other things that flourish and wither. "deja vu" is also the author's feeling and feeling. Swallows go south in autumn and return north in spring, which is not out of season. The two have the same status, and it is difficult for anyone to tell whether they are old nests or not, so they are both labeled as "deja vu". "Yan Gui" is also an objective law that is independent of human will. Swallows come and go from north to south, symbolizing the change of seasons and the alternation of years. "Swallow" not only refers to swallows coming from spring to autumn, but also reminds people to return like swallows and look for old friends or things again. "Flower" and "Swallow" become a symbol, which makes people think widely and far. Every time "falling flowers" and "returning from Yan" alternate, a year passes, and life gradually ages until it disappears in this endless alternation. "Flowers fall" and "Yan Gui" are common trivial matters, but when the author adds the exclamation sentence "helplessness" and "deja vu" before these two short sentences, he brings this extremely common natural phenomenon into the philosophical category of limited life and eternal time, creating an artistic conception of "thinking from emotion".

There is another legend about the origin of this connection:

Once, Yan Shu came to Weiyang and lived in daming temple. Looking around, he suddenly found a well-written poem on the wall, but unfortunately there was no author's name. Yan Shuran went in and out, kept asking questions, and finally found out that the author's name was Wang Qi, and his home was near daming temple. Because Yan Shu found that Wang Qi had a high literary accomplishment and was good at writing poetry, he immediately decided to invite Wang Qi to discuss poetry.

After Wang Qilai came, she found that Yan Shu was good at appreciating poems and papers, and her attitude was still very modest. Seeing that Wang Qi was in high spirits and speculating, Yan Shu invited Wang Qi to a table for dinner. Two people are eating and chatting, and they feel particularly comfortable. After dinner, we go to the swimming pool to play together. Yan Shu looked at the fallen flowers in late spring and said casually, "I thought of writing a poem on the wall." I thought about it for a year, but I still didn't think it was right. " That sentence is: helpless flowers fall. After thinking for a while, he said unhurriedly, I saw Yan come back. This pair of sentences is not only timely and distinctive in terms of words, but also makes two people's thoughts and feelings meet like close friends in meaning and hit it off at first sight. How can this not make people particularly happy? So, hearing this, Yanshu quickly cheered!

This is a legend, of course, not necessarily credible.
