Breaking up should also have a sense of ceremony. How to say goodbye in classical Chinese?

There are many ways to break up in classical Chinese, such as resolute, euphemistic, helpless and decisive. Let's see how the ancients broke up.

1. "After that, the brocade book will not be issued, and the painting building is unfounded!" -resolutely, from the Song Dynasty poet Yan's "Qing Ping Le? People can't stay.

Don't write to me again. It's raining outside, so I can't get it or see it when I finish writing. What we mean by modern times is that if you don't contact me, I'm not interested in your business. I'd better forget it, leave me alone and stop liking you.

2. "When Houmen entered the sea, Xiao Lang was a passer-by." -Helpless, from the Tang Dynasty Cui Jiao's Poems for Maids.

This poem was written by Cui Jiao to a relative's maid. He fell in love with an aunt's handmaid, but she was bought by a noble, expressing the pain and sadness of their separation. Such a situation is not uncommon in modern times, just like a couple breaking up because of family situation and long-distance love. Even if they have all kinds of helplessness and suffering, they can only give up in the end.

3. "If you are careless, I will rest, and the green hills only recognize white clouds." -Open-minded, from the Tang Dynasty poet Zhang's "If you are unintentional, I will rest."

It means that if you don't have me in your heart, then I can only let go. Thinking too much about the past will make me worry, and being too sad will make me bald.

4. "Jinshui Tang Tang, and Chang Jun Ji."-Juejue, written by Zhuo Wenjun in the Western Han Dynasty.

This is what we often say. I can't love you anymore. In classical Chinese, I swear to this brocade water that I will never like you again in my life, and express my feelings in a firm tone.

The breakup in classical Chinese is now full of poetry, but the best way to break up is to say goodbye and be happy, and the two need not be too entangled.
