The orchid leaves are in spring, and the Guihua is bright in autumn.
Shin Shin this business is a festive season.
Who knows that the forest dwellers sit and enjoy each other when they hear the wind.
Plants and trees have their own hearts, why ask for beauty to fold

The "All Tang Poems" compiled during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty contains more than 48,900 poems, which are difficult for ordinary people to readSince then, Shen Deqian has compiled and selected "Tang Poetry Tailoring" based on "All Tang Poems", which includes 1,928 poems, which are difficult for ordinary people to read. As a result, during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, the Tang Retreat took the "Tang Poetry Tailoring" as the blueprint and compiled the "Three Hundred Tang Poems" to include 310 poems, which became the most widely circulated and influential popular reading book of Tang poetry.
"Three Hundred Tang Poems" is an anthology of Tang poems compiled by Sun Zhu, a retired scholar from the Qing Dynasty, divided into eight volumes, with 310 selected poems, and later added three poems of Du Fu's "Yonghuai Monuments". The anthology includes 77 poems, which are basically arranged according to the poetry styles of five-character ancient poems, seven-character ancient poems, five-character rhythm poems, seven-character rhythm poems, five-character quatrains, seven-character quatrains, and Yuefu. Among them, Du Fu has the most poems, with 38 poems, 29 poems by Wang Wei, 27 poems by Li Bai, and 22 poems by Li Shangyin.
Speaking of the origin of the title of this book "Three Hundred Tang Poems", Sun Zhu said in the preface: "Yan Yun: 'If you are familiar with 300 Tang poems, you will not be able to compose poems and chant'. Please think it's a compilation. Therefore, according to the proverb, Sun Zhu directly set the title of the book as "Three Hundred Tang Poems", which has been passed down to this day.
Zhang Jiuling was a native of Qujiang, Shaozhou (now Shaoguanxi, Guangdong), although he was born in a poor family, when he was a teenager, Zhang Jiuling showed outstanding talent, and he could write articles at the age of nine.
When Zhang Jiuling was 13 years old, the great calligrapher Wang Fangqing served as the assassin of Guangzhou. Zhang Jiuling ran a long way and handed over his article, Wang Fangqing looked at it and praised it: "Young man, your future is limitless." ”
At the age of 20, Zhang Jiuling was admitted to the Jinshi in one fell swoop.
At the age of 25, Zhang Jiuling met the noble man of his life - Zhang Shuo.
Interestingly, Zhang Shuo is only 12 years older than Zhang Jiuling, Zhang Shuo lived to be 64 years old in history, and 9 years after his death, 62-year-old Zhang Jiuling also died.
Zhang said that the prime minister of the country, the leader of the literary circle, is a literary and strong thinker, long in the inscription, the imperial court is a big book, more than his hand, the people of the time called "big strokes". Because of offending Wu Zetian's male pet Zhang Yizhi, Zhang said that he was demoted to Lingnan, met Zhang Jiuling, and after reading his article, he was full of praise. But Zhang Jiuling did not rely on the relationship, and still entered the imperial examination.
Zhang said that he always reported upwards and recommended Zhang Jiuling, and he directly predicted: Zhang Jiuling will be the leader of the literary world in the future, and he will be Zhang Jiuling's "Looking at the Moon and Huaiyuan"."The moon is born on the sea, and the end of the world is at this time".Born out of thin air, stunning the world.
Zhang Shuo and Zhang Jiuling, who held high official positions, took the lead in writing poems, and also promoted many poets, attracting literati to study and Xi, and effectively promoting the development of Tang poetry.
The background of "Feelings" is: In the twenty-fifth year of Kaiyuan, Zhou Ziliang, the superintendent of the imperial history recommended by Zhang Jiuling, offended Tang Xuanzong because of his nonsense, and Zhang Jiuling was implicated, plus Li Linfu and others framed Zhang Jiuling, Tang Xuanzong demoted Zhang Jiuling to Jingzhou as the governor of Jingzhou, and Li Linfu became the new prime minister.
For more than 30 years as an official, loyal to the public, but ended up being deposed, Zhang Jiuling was both lost and resentful, sad and indignant, turned into poems, and the group of poems "Feelings" was born at this time. He wrote twelve poems in a row, and "Three Hundred Tang Poems" only included four.
Personally, I think that the first poem of "Three Hundred Tang Poems" is Zhang Jiuling's "Feelings", for three reasons:
First, "Three Hundred Tang Poems" is divided into seven categories by genre: five-word ancient poems, Yuefu, seven-word ancient poems, five-word rhythm poems, seven-word rhythm poems, five-word quatrains, seven-word quatrains, five-word ancient poems are the first category, Zhang Jiuling's "Feelings: One of Them" occupies the innate convenience, of course, the most important thing is that this poem is really well written.
The second is the poem "Feelings and Encounters" in the poem "Plants and trees have their own hearts, why ask for beauty to fold" translates to: the fragrance of plants and trees is nature, not to pray for the favor of beauty. If you taste it carefully, this is exactly the confession of Zhang Jiuling, Sun Zhu, a retired scholar from Yutang and other idealists who stick to their hearts, and perhaps it is this poem that resonates with Sun Zhu, the author of the anthology.
Third, as a poet in the transition from the early Tang dynasty to the prosperous Tang dynasty (678-740), Zhang Jiuling was both a leader in the literary world and a virtuous minister of the Tang dynasty, witnessing the final glory of the Tang dynasty, as mentioned earlier, Zhang Jiuling took the lead in writing poetry, promoted many poets to become officials, attracted literati to compete to learn and Xi, and effectively promoted the development of Tang poetry, which may be the most important reason.
