I wonder if Li Bai's love affair is embarrassing in front of Meng Haoran? He once wrote a poem "A Message to Meng Haoran", saying:
Master, I cheer you from the bottom of my heart. Your fame has risen to the sky.
In the rosy youth, you gave up the importance of hats and chariots and chose pine trees and clouds; Now whitehead.
Drunk moon, sage of dreams, bewitched by flowers, you turned a deaf ear to the emperor.
Gaoshan, how I long to reach you, that's all.
I admire this "Master Meng" who is twelve years older than himself. Why is this happening? Because Meng Haoran "gave up the importance of hats and chariots in rosy youth, you chose pine trees and clouds;" Now whitehead. Drunk with the moon, the sage of dreams, the temptation of flowers, the monarch is the emperor. " From youth to old age, he lived in seclusion among pine clouds all his life, despised official crowns, chariots and horses, and often got drunk on a moonlit night, preferring to linger among flowers rather than serve the king. Finally, the admiration for Meng Haoran's "romantic" nature is described as "the mountain rises and the scenery stops".
Meng Haoran's romantic style lies in the clarity and natural lightness of his poems. It is not an exaggeration to evaluate it with "Guqingfengsan". Feng Menglong's Shi Yu Yan Ming in Ming Dynasty recorded such a story:
Meng Haoran lives in Tokyo, and Prime Minister Zhang said that he values his talents and makes friends with them. One day, Zhang said that he wanted to write a social poem, and he couldn't think of it. Meng Haoran was invited to discuss. Making tea was under discussion when suddenly Tang arrived. Meng Haoran had nowhere to hide and fell behind the bed. Ming Taizu had already seen it and asked Zhang, "Who was hiding from me just now?" Zhang Yue said, "This Xiangyang poet Meng Haoran is an old friend of my minister. I came here by accident, but I dare not drive rashly because of my clothes. " "I have never heard of this man, and I want to meet him," said the Ming emperor. Meng Haoran had to come out, prostrate himself on the ground and said, "Death penalty." Ming Chengzu asked, "I listened to your good poems. Can you recite a poem about your life?" Meng Haoran recited "Northern Jue Xiu Xie":
Bei Juexiu wrote a letter and sent it to this shabby hut on Zhongnanshan Mountain.
I have no reason to decide to give up my point of view. My old and many sick friends have stopped practicing.
The frequency of white hair is that people are getting more and more every day, and spring is coming to force them to die.
Full of sadness, tossing and turning, the pine forest is empty under the moon.
After reading Ming Taizu, Long Yan was unhappy for a moment, and kept silent for a long time: "You are not a talent, and I am not a wise Lord; However, since Qing didn't come to see me, I never abandoned Qing. " The next day, Zhang said that when he entered the DPRK, he saw the emperor apologize and strongly recommended Meng Haoran's talents. However, Ming Chengzu said: "I heard a saying from Meng Haoran,' The meteor hits the river and the raindrops disperse'. How refreshing! I also heard the sentence "Clouds dream of a foggy valley, waves regret Yueyang Tower", how magnificent! Yesterday, I slandered my haggard words in front of me, and my heart was full of resentment, so I didn't use the tools of the world. Announce that you will return to Nanshan to realize your ambition! "Because it is not used for life, people have called it Monsanto so far.
Judging from this story, Meng Haoran is very talented, but he is not a useful tool for the world. Meng Haoran's experience was staged again by Liu Yong, the first romantic genius in the Song Dynasty.
Liu Yong was born in a scholarly family and received orthodox education from an early age. His father Liu Yi has three sons, the eldest is three times, the second is three times, the youngest is three times, and Liu Yong is the youngest. Among them, the names of the eldest son and the youngest son come from The Analects of Confucius, "Three Answers" means expecting the son to read books three times a day, and "Three Changes" means expecting the son to have three changes like a gentleman: to see his true colors, that is, to warm his heart and listen to his words. "Sanlian" comes from the Book of Changes, which means that Wang Zi was received by the emperor three times a day. These three brothers, as the name implies, all won the Jinshi, and were called "Liu San Jue".
But in fact, Liu Yong had already failed the list for the fourth time before taking the Jinshi exam, and he was over half a year old when he took the exam. Compared with the other two brothers, his fate is very tragic. In fact, Liu Caizi, who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, was also full of ambition when he first tried. Before he tried to enter Bianjing, he was stuck in Suzhou and Hangzhou because of his fascination with lakes, mountains and bustling streets. He is addicted to the romantic life of listening to songs and laughing. Before leaving, he boasted about Haikou and went to be "the best in the world". Unexpectedly, Song Renzong, who has the most disgusting prose, made a look at him earlier.
In a fit of pique, Liu Yongxin wrote He Tianchong:
Gold list. I lost hope. The temporary legacy of the Ming dynasty. If you fail, you must struggle. There's no need to talk about mourning. A talented scholar and poet naturally wears white clothes.
Yanhua alley is a stranger, as Danqing barrier. Fortunately, there are people in the right place, I can look for them. And snuggled up to the red jade, had an affair, and life was smooth sailing. Youth is a soldier. Endure superficial fame and sing shallowly.
This song "He" is a declaration of Liu Yong's attitude towards life. Only that sentence, "You are close to the red jade, having an affair and living smoothly." Youth is a soldier. Endure floating fame, change shallow water and sing low "and drag out the image of a romantic genius who is addicted to truth." Although this is good, Liu Yong got the "special treatment" of the emperor twice after his first trial.
It turns out that this song "Crane to Heaven" was written in the capital and became famous, and it suddenly reached the ears of Song Renzong. When Lin Xuan made the list, Renzong deliberately let Liu Yong fall behind, saying, "Why should you be famous if you sing low?" From then on, Liu Yong went in and out of the Qin Louchu Museum with the signboard of "Liu Sanbian was ordered to write lyrics", and many prostitutes in Tokyo were proud of it when they saw him. At that time, it was rumored that Liu Qi was inferior, and there was a prostitute slogan cloud:
I don't want to wear silk, I want to rely on Liu;
I don't want to be called by the king, I want to be called by Liu Qi.
I don't want thousands of gold, I want seven hearts in the middle;
I don't want to see the gods, I want to know the seven sides of the willow tree.
It is said that there are countless literati in the Chu Museum, but why is the dancer geisha willing to be the only fan of Liu Qi? The reason for this is precisely the place where Liu Yong has been praised for thousands of years.
Everyone thinks that romantic genius is a person who indulges himself and can read and write. Don't you know that romantic love can't be done by everyone? Romantic love is a noble quality. As the saying goes, "the movement of qi is wind, and the behavior of water is flow." Wind energy teaches all beings, and flow energy transforms the world. Romance is the spiritual realm that saints and gentlemen yearn for since ancient times. Until the Ming Dynasty, Caigen Tan still regarded "true love" as "true temperament". Justin praised Zhuge Liang's "romantic" because Zhuge Liang, though loyal to his duties, daydreamed about managing music and stayed away from romantic. He has been singing in seclusion and whistling in his arms. In the Wei and Jin Dynasties, there were more romantic figures.
Scholar Feng Youlan once wrote about romance, saying that "romance is a very beautiful quality" and that a romantic person must have a mysterious heart. Second, you should have insight; Third, there must be wonderful rewards; Fourth, we must be affectionate. Of these four points, affection is the most important. Real romantic people are affectionate. His affection is not only for his own life, but also for everything in the universe. Seeing Lin Youliang's thoughts, seeing birds, animals and insects, he is a confidant and relative.
So much for Liu Yong's romantic life. He was born in the Chu Pavilion, and lived a drunken life between a dancer and a geisha, but he was by no means a treacherous and heartless dignitary. The dignitaries who are addicted to singing and dancing sleeves, like animals, return to the palace residence and pretend to be a gentleman. Such two-faced people are the most disgusting. What is commendable about Liu Yong is that he has always been a gentle face. He didn't pretend to be true, true love and true face. Therefore, those dancers and singers who lack human care are naturally willing to "exchange your heart for mine" and recognize him as a confidant.
After the fourth place, Liu Yong wrote a poem "Yulinling" for his lover:
The cicadas in autumn are so sad and urgent, facing the pavilion, it is in the evening and a sudden rain has just stopped. Farewell outside Kyoto, but not in the mood to drink, reluctant to leave, the people on board have been urging to start. Holding hands and looking at each other, tears swirled in my eyes until there were no words at last, and a thousand words stuck in my throat and I couldn't say it. Thinking of returning to the south this time, this journey is another road. Thousands of miles away, it is misty, and the night sky is a vast night fog.
Since ancient times, the most sad thing for sentimental people is to leave, not to mention the bleak autumn, how can they stand the sadness. Who knows where I am when I am awake tonight? Fear is just the edge, facing the sad morning wind and the setting sun of the waning moon. This is a long time, people who love each other are not together, and I even expect to be satisfied with the good weather and scenery in name only. Even if it is full of emotions, who can enjoy it together?
As a man, Liu Yong wrote this word in a man's tone (the tone of a woman in the late Tang Dynasty). Although it is a love story, there is not a trace of posturing, not a floating language. When I read every word, I only feel sincere, which is even worse than Li Shangyin's "Time was long before I met her, but after breaking up, the east wind started and a hundred flowers blossomed".
Wang Guowei, a lyricist in the late Qing Dynasty, could not understand this romantic tendency. He only said, "farming is frivolous, but he can say' grandma has a mixed heart'." I don't know why I feel sad when I want to hear about Liu Yong. When it comes to Liu Yong's ci, the world has vulgar language, thinking that the most dazzling star in the ci circle in the Northern Song Dynasty is just a romantic prodigal son of a dusty woman, saying that "where there is a well water, Liu Ci will sing" or "Liu Qi hangs from the romantic grave" as bait for laughing after dinner.
But I read Liu Yong's "Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive, Drive. , "drunk home, will enjoy, full of singing. Avoiding this situation is a waste of time and a waste of time. " Only then did I know that he was the one who already knew life. It is precisely because of the romantic man's "profound insight" that he can always maintain "wonderful appreciation and affection" in his life.
I thought Liu Yong was not only a true romantic genius, but also a "kind-hearted, dead nine times without regret" gentleman. After four times, he did not lose perseverance like other depressed literati, but he still "will be rewarded when he understands whether wealth is owned by the people". This mentality made him an enterprising rebel and eventually became famous at the age of 50. Even so, he continued to sing the eternal things of mankind in the impermanence of fate. Just like this song Klang Ganzhou:
Facing the rain from the sky, a piece of washed autumn scenery on the river is particularly cold. The bleak frost wind is tight, the river surface of the mountains and rivers is deserted, and the setting sun shines on the tall buildings. Red flowers wither everywhere, and all the beautiful scenery gradually disappears. Only the surging Yangtze River flows eastward silently.
Without the heart to climb the distance and overlook the distant home, it is difficult to gather the desire to go home. Sighing where these years have gone, why do you have to stay in a strange land for a long time? I think of that beautiful woman, looking up from the gorgeous upstairs, and how many times I mistook the distant boat for the love boat to go home. She will know that I am so sad leaning against the railing, and I am so sad.
There are still people in the world who understand Liu Yong's romantic feelings, such as Su Dongpo. After reading this song "Eight Tones of Ganzhou", he praised Liu Yong: "Everyone says that it is noble and vulgar, but it is like' first frost is cold, the river is cold, and the residual photos are buildings', and the Tang people are tall, but that's all."
Good sentence "Tang people are tall, but that's all"! In particular, the phrase "it is a decline, it is a luxury." Only the gushing water of the Yangtze river flows eastward without sound. ",drew a leisurely chest, heaven and earth spirit up and down with Liu Yong.
Liu Yong may be more romantic than Wang Xizhi, Xie An who brought prostitutes into the mountains and Ruan Ji who slept next door. He watched everything evolve in impermanence and knew that everything had its place in change, which was the highest pleasure in the world and the highest realm of romantic life.
