Mei Niang's Poems (Poems by Wu Zetian)

1. The image of Wu Zetian in Tang poetry Wu Zetian, as the only female emperor in China's history, was an important event in the Tang Dynasty and even in the whole history of China, which had a wide and far-reaching influence on politics, economy and culture.

Wu Zetian's identity is quite special. She was not only the queen of Li Tang, but also the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty that she founded. In the Tang Dynasty, all the new and old books entered the "Ji" according to the emperor's specifications, but they were called "Emperors".

Since she ascended the Queen's throne, she has been in power for about half a century, and even since she was called the imperial court in 683, she has been in power for 22 years. As an outstanding politician, Wu Zetian publicized women's rights, reformed the imperial examination, started the imperial examination tour, started martial arts, simply recruited talents, learned people, promulgated Zhaoren Merchants, and attached importance to the development of agriculture.

However, its iron fist is ruthless, it uses cruel officials, promotes prisons, punishes political enemies indiscriminately, and the war is too heavy. The following is a brief analysis of Wu Zetian's characters through several of her own creations and poems related to her in the way of mutual proof of poetry and history, combined with relevant historical materials.

1. The self-image (1) in Wu Zetian's own poems has a distinct personality and combines rigidity with softness. The forty-seventh song in the fifth volume of The Whole Tang Poetry is Wu Zetian's Ruyi Niang (volume 27_47, miscellaneous songs Ruyi Niang): seeing Zhu's thoughts in succession, he is haggard and forgetful. If you don't believe me, you will cry. Open the box and take the pomegranate skirt.

Liang Wang, a monk and Confucian scholar, wrote: "Who knows the confusion? Look at Zhu Hu and Bi Cheng". "Looking at Zhu" means that due to the confusion of thoughts and ideas, red is regarded as green, resulting in blurred vision.

This poem is about a woman who is in a trance, haggard and weak because she misses her lover, and her skirt is pink with tears. There are 47 poems under the name of Wu Zetian, with 2 addenda.

Only this one has a different style, tender feelings and infatuation. Some people think that after Emperor Gaozong (656), he was politically active and ambitious, but this poem is sentimental, compassionate and endless, presumably before the celebration.

Some even speculated that her correspondence with Gaozong during her stay in Ganye Temple was not made public, and there were many criticisms about her pregnancy and childbirth in the temple. She is under a lot of pressure. She wrote this poem, which is old in Yuefu but completely in line with the four-line style, and poured out her difficulties. As a beautiful woman, Wu Zetian also has a gentle and charming side, just like the name "Mei Niang".

Although poetry may not express all the emotions experienced by the author, it is often the expression of one's own temperament. This poem can be regarded as the true color of Wu Zetian. Whether this poem is a frank expression of what she thinks, loves and complains, or her own true emotional experience, after all, we have seen the gentle side of the mighty queen.

The erotic poems in the early Tang Dynasty were influenced by the palace poems of the Five Dynasties, which were flashy and gorgeous and generally empty in content. Wu Zetian's poem is sincere in feelings, connected with daily life situations, and its narrative technique is natural and vivid, not melodramatic and unambiguous, which has influenced the purification of Gong Tiyan's floating poetic style to some extent.

2. Let's look at this song "La Ri Xuan Zhao Xing Shang Yuan": Ming Dynasty swam to Shang Yuan, and reported it in spring. Flowers bloom overnight, don't wait for the breeze to blow.

This poem is also included in Volume 5 of Complete Tang Poetry, Volume 3 of Chronicle of Tang Poetry and Wu Hou (originally published in Volume 2 of Guangji), saying: "We have been blessed by wax for two years (69 1 year) and want to lie that flowers bloom and fall. Please be lucky to go to the garden and have a plan. Xu zhi.

Looking for suspicious pictures, he sent an envoy to announce that the Ming Dynasty had swam into the garden, and it was urgent to report the spring: flowers must bloom overnight, so don't wait for the breeze to blow! So in the morning, the famous flower cloth garden, the ministers are different. "La, originally a sacrificial name, refers to the twelfth lunar month, the first day of the twelfth lunar month, that is, the first day of December.

During the Southern and Northern Dynasties,1February 8 was designated as the twelfth lunar month, or the third lunar month to the day after winter was designated as the twelfth lunar month. According to Volume II of the Six Classics of Tang Dynasty, Shangshu Official Department, "Chinese and foreign officials have a holiday of false peace, ... three days in the solstice and three days in Los Angeles."

In the Tang Dynasty, the twelfth lunar month was an important festival for three days, and special activities were often arranged in the court. This poem should also be regarded as the true face of Wu Zetian, which is different from Ruyi Niang. The true nature of this poem is the domineering as a generation of queens.

Although it is natural for a hundred flowers to blossom overnight in winter, Wu Zetian's tone of giving orders to a hundred flowers is an inviolable gesture, aggressive and uncompromising. From the poem, we can feel that Wu Zetian's character is decisive and uncompromising.

If Ruyi Niang shows the depressed side of the female emperor, it is more introverted; Then Wu Zetian's character in this poem is flamboyant and extroverted. (2) Promote the status of women by respecting their mothers. The forty-fourth poem in the fifth volume of the whole Tang poetry is Wu Zetian's poem "Lucky Shaolin Temple Driving by Car", and its last sentence: "The wind can't be quiet, why chase the tears?"

Expressed the thoughts and feelings of hurting parents' death and unfilial. "Han Shi Zhuan" Volume 9 has: "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the son wants to raise it without waiting."

Wu Zetian used this idea. This poem has a small preface: "When I see the place built by the first princess, I am more eager to look forward to it and talk about it. I use it to express my sadness."

"First Princess" refers to Yang, the second wife and mother of Wu Zetian. Yang was born in Guanlong, the daughter of the prime minister of Sui Dynasty. After Li Xite's death, she married the Wu family when she was nearly 40 years old, with Li Yuan as the master and Princess Guiyang as the matchmaker.

Wu Zetian is Yang's second daughter. Established as a queen and named Yang Princess Taiyuan and Princess Wei.

This poem was written by Wu Zetian when she accompanied Gaozong to visit Shaolin Temple. Because he was very sad when he saw his late mother's building, he wrote this poem with "blood and tears". Through reading poems, we can also appreciate Wu Zetian's deep feelings for her mother.

It is precisely because of Wu Zetian's deep affection for her mother that she respects the status of women in the way of respecting her mother. In 666 AD, Wu Zetian and Emperor Gaozong came back from a retreat and visited laojunmiao on the way, specially honoring Laozi's mother as the "congenital queen mother".

The Tang Dynasty stipulated that the father should be filial for three years. Father is alive, mother dies, and he is filial for one year; Mother died, father died, and she was filial for three years. In 674, Wuhou proposed in the Twelve Suggestions that filial piety should last for three years regardless of the father's life and death and the mother's death.

Across the wall of Sanqin, across a layer of fog, across a river.

We said goodbye sadly, and our two officials went in opposite directions.

Why linger at the fork in the road, the child is stained with towels.

Send yuan twenty-one Xi

Wang Wei

Weicheng is rainy and dusty, and the guest house is green and willow.

I advise you to drink more wine, there is no reason to go out to the west.

Break up with Xinjian at Furong Inn.

Wang Changling

It's freezing and rainy, and it's night in Wu, and Chushan is quiet.

Relatives and friends in Luoyang asked each other that there was a piece of ice in the jade pot.

For Wang Lun.

Lipper

Li Bai was about to go by boat when he heard singing on the shore.

Peach Blossom Pond is deeper in thousands of feet than in Wang Lun.

Farewell to Meng Haoran on the way to Yangzhou from Yellow Crane Tower.

Lipper

An old friend stayed in the West Yellow Crane Tower, and fireworks went down to Yangzhou in March.

Sailing alone, the blue sky is exhausted, and only the Yangtze River is in the sky.

A song of snow sent Tian Shuji Wu home.

Cen Can

The north wind rolled up the white grass and scattered them, and the snow in August crossed the Tatar sky.

Just like the strong wind in spring, it blows at night and blows open the petals of ten thousand pear trees.

It enters the pearl shutters, it wets the silk curtains, a fur coat feels cold, and a cotton pad is thin.

The bow became stiff and almost impossible to pull out, and the metal of the armor condensed on people.

The unfathomable ice in the sand sea, gloomy clouds and Wan Li condensation.

But let's drink to the guest who came home from the camp and play the savage pipa, guitar and harp for him.

Until dusk, when the snow collapsed our tent, our frozen red flag could not fly in the wind.

We watched him walk eastward through the wheel tower door and enter the snowdrift on Tianding Road.

Then he disappeared around the corner, leaving only hoofprint.

Step on the sand

Ouyang Xiu

The plum blossoms are waiting in the pavilion, the willows on the bridge are thin, and the grass is warm and swaying.

Sadness is getting farther and farther away, and the distance is like spring water.

Inch by inch, my heart is tender, my eyes are full of tears, and the height of the building is not close to the dangerous fence.

Spring mountain is everywhere, and pedestrians are even outside the mountain.
