Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty was talented and romantic, and he was not satisfied with the three thousand harems, and often came out to "steal food", so that he left a lot of romantic stories.
Legend has it that once, Song Huizong privately met the famous prostitute Li Shishi of the Northern Song Dynasty.
Interestingly, Zhou Bangyan was already there.
Imagine that scene, the emperor suddenly visited, what should I do?
Zhou Bangyan had to hide under the bed in a hurry, and this scene couldn't help but make people laugh.
Zhou Bangyan is one of the great poets of the Northern Song Dynasty and one of the representative lyricists of the "Wanyue School", with the reputation of "the crown of lyricists", and has left a strong mark in the history of ancient literature, and his talent and works are still praised by people today.
At that time, Song Huizong was holding a fresh Jiangnan orange and chatting and laughing with Master Li. Zhou Bangyan hid under the bed, listened to all this, and his inspiration was imminent, and he created the masterpiece "Youth Swimming, and the Sword is Like Water".
And the knife is like water, Wu Yan wins the snow, and the slender hand breaks the new orange.
At the beginning of the temperature, the beast smoke continued, and the relative sitting was in tune.
Whisper and ask: To whom do you stay?There have been three shifts in the city.
The horse is slippery and the frost is thick, it is better to take a break, it is a few people!
Zhou Bangyan's poem "Juvenile Travel, and Swords Like Water" is full of delicate emotions and profound artistic conception, and is one of the masterpieces in ancient Chinese lexicology.
And the knife is like water, Wu Yan wins the snow, and the slender hand breaks the new orange. ”
The beginning of this sentence is "and the knife is like water", the image is clear, describing the blade as sharp and smooth as water, showing the texture of the object.
Then "Wu Yan wins the snow", Wu Di salt is as white as snow to describe the whiteness of the woman's **, this metaphor is vivid and vivid.
Finally, "Slender Hands Break New Oranges", which describes a woman's delicate fingers peeling fresh oranges, the picture is delicate and full of the breath of life.
At the beginning of the temperature, the beast smoke continued, and the relative sitting was in tune. ”
The phrase "the first temperature of the brocade" depicts a warm and comfortable indoor environment, which may suggest emotional warmth.
And "the smoke of the beast" may refer to the smoke of the cigarette, which adds to the mystery.
Finally, "Sitting Opposite to the Sheng" depicts the harmonious scene of two people sitting opposite each other, adjusting the sheng, symbolizing the harmony and tacit understanding between men and women.
Whisper and ask: To whom do you stay?There have been three shifts in the city. ”
This sentence shows the tranquility and privacy of the late night through "whispered questions", and at the same time expresses the concern and inquiry of the other party.
"The city has been three watches" depicts the silence of the middle of the night, increasing the sense of time and space in the words.
The horse is slippery and the frost is thick, it is better to take a break, it is a few people!”
In the last sentence, "Horse slippery frost" vividly depicts the cold environment outside, with horses walking on slippery frost and snow.
And "it's better to leave" is the woman's intention to stay, implying the other party's cherishment and reluctance.
Finally, "Straight is less pedestrian" not only describes the desertion of the road in the middle of the night, but also reflects the loneliness and expectation in the woman's heart.
Through this poem, Zhou Bangyan depicts a warm scene in the middle of the night with delicate brushstrokes, and at the same time shows the depth and complexity of emotions through metaphor and symbolism.
This poem not only reaches a high level in art, but also has great depth in emotional expression, and is a shining pearl in classical Chinese vocabulary.
In addition, Zhou Bangyan skillfully used the change of tone and the beating of rhythm in this poem, which greatly enhanced the **** nature of the whole poem.
For example, the phrase "the horse is slippery and frosty" is not only a depiction of the environment, but also a symbol of the delicate emotional relationship between men and women. Zhou Bangyan uses this symbolism to deepen the emotional level of the word, making it easier for readers to resonate.
The beauty of this poem is that Zhou Bangyan is both an outsider and an insider, he did not participate in these things, but witnessed the story of this night.
Moreover, the story is not over here, and there are twists and turns ahead.
Soon after, Song Huizong quietly visited Master Li's residence again.
After the event, Master Li couldn't help humming Zhou Bangyan's lyrics "Youth Swimming, and the Sword is Like Water".
Song Huizong immediately heard the hidden meaning behind the lyrics, and Master Li also told the emperor all about the situation that night.
Master Li sang Zhou Bangyan's "Lanling King Liu" to Song Huizong:
The willow is straight, and the smoke is blue. On the Sui embankment, I have seen a few times, and the water is floating to see off the color. Coming to look at the homeland, who knows the tired guests of Beijing?
Changting Road, the year to the year, should be folded over a thousand feet. Idle looking for old traces, and drink while mourning, the lamp shines and leaves the table. Pear blossom elm fire to promote cold food.
Worry about an arrow and the wind is fast, half a penny wave is warm, turn around and pass a few posts, looking at people in the north of the sky. Sadness, hatred piles up!
Gradually farewell Pu lingers, Jin is lonely, and the slanting sun is rising in spring. Nian Yuexie hand in hand, open the bridge and listen to the flute. Contemplating the past, like in a dream, tears droplets.
Huizong was furious and drove Zhou Bangyan out of the capital the next day, which made Master Li very sad.
Later, Song Huizong highly admired Zhou Bangyan's talent, and couldn't bear Master Li's sad appearance, not only summoned Zhou Bangyan back to Beijing, but also let him specialize in music and dance, and he was in a high position.
This story comes from wild history, but it is not groundless.
According to historical records, the relationship between Master Li and Song Huizong is indeed close, and Zhou Bangyan's feelings for Master Li are also real.
The story is both historical, dramatic, and humorous, making it an interesting historical anecdote.
