People often say: "The four happy events of life", presumably these four happy events, many people are familiar with them, and they will come when they open their mouths. One is to meet the old acquaintance in another country, due to the inconvenience of transportation in ancient times, many people who left their hometown, a few years away from their hometown, so they miss their hometown very much, and many ancient poems, depicting the theme of nostalgia, therefore, the hometown of the old acquaintance, is the first great joy. The second is a long drought and a rain, as we all know, the ancient is an agricultural civilization, and the weather phenology in the eyes of the ancients, very important, a long drought will lead to natural disasters and man-made disasters, if the long drought is a rain, it is a bitter sea escape, the disaster does not die, so it is the second great joy. The third is the title of the gold list, the ancient imperial examination system, is one of the important ways for the ancients to achieve class jump, as the so-called "the dynasty is Tian Shelang, the twilight of the Tianzi Hall", the title of the gold list is in the thousands of troops across the single-plank bridge, to win the first place, because it is the third great joy. The last big joy is the night of candles in the cave room. When it comes to poems related to the candle night in the cave room, many people will take it for granted that Su Shi's sentence "a moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold", in fact, just as people have a misinterpretation of the idiom "a person is worth a thousand gold", it is also a misunderstanding of Su Shi's works to associate "a moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold" with "a candle night in the cave room".
Su Shi was a great writer in the Song Dynasty, the head of the eight masters of the Tang and Song dynasties, and Su Shi left many popular poems in his life. If you want to say that the closest thing to the "Candle Night in the Cave House" should be the poem "Zhang Ziye's Eighty-five Years of Shangwen Buying a Concubine and Writing Ancient Orders Poems" that ridiculed his friend Zhang Xian's old cow for eating tender grass: "Mr. Jinli laughs at himself, don't bully the nine-foot sideburns. The poet is old and the warbler is here, and the son is back and Yanyan is busy. Xiangjun under the pillar still has teeth, and the history of Jiangnan thorns has no intestines. Pingsheng falsely pretended to be An Changke, and sent Peng Xuan to the back hall. And the one: "Eighteen brides and eighty langs, pale hair to red dresses." The mandarin ducks are in pairs, and a pear flower presses the begonia", according to the exquisite, it is not Su Shi's poems ridiculing Zhang Xian, but a folk joke circulated during the Ming Dynasty. Getting back to the point, let's take a look at the sentence "A moment of Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold", the second half of its sentence is more classic, but few people mention it.
This poem comes from Su Shi's "Spring Festival", which was written by Su Shi after being demoted, and the whole poem is: "The Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold, and the flowers are fragrant and the moon is cloudy." The first half of the poem can be understood as the night of spring, time is very precious, and it is difficult to buy a moment, because the night of spring is unusually beautiful, the flowers exude fragrance, and the moonlight is clean and quiet. It can be seen that the "spring night" in this poem does not refer to the "night of flowers and candles in the cave room", but refers to the "night of spring". Su Shi used this to satirize the dignitaries and nobles in the court, indulging in the enjoyment of "the sound of the song pipe building is thin, and the swing courtyard is heavy at night", and the voice is lustful, ignoring the "flowers have fragrance and the moon is cloudy".
If you indulge your time and energy in the greed for pleasure, it is undoubtedly a sadness. Su Shi's "Spring Festival", and Bai Juyi's "Song of Long Hatred" in the Tang Dynasty, "The Spring Festival is bitter and short, and the king will not rise early", expressing the poet's feelings of worrying about the country and the people, and the meaning of the Spring Festival in the poem is very simple, just referring to the "spring night". However, later generations have ambiguity about the word "Spring Festival", associating it with male and female love, and using the Spring Festival to describe the candle night in the cave room, which is tantamount to making Su Shi's poems cheesy, and more importantly, people often ignore the second half of the sentence that should be paid more attention to because of this ambiguity - flowers have fragrance and moon and yin.
Reinterpretation: "A moment of Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold", and the fragrance shadow cannot be ignored!
Su Shi's poem "Spring Night" is a bright pearl in ancient Chinese literature, showing the poet's deep thinking about life, time and society. In this poem, he expresses his feelings about the transience of life and the fleeting nature of time with profound allegory and artistic techniques, while revealing social phenomena and human weaknesses.
First of all, Su Shi expressed his heart through the sentence "A moment of Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold", expressing the concept that time is short and precious. This poem is concise and powerful, comparing the moment of the Spring Festival with the daughter, vividly expressing the reality of the short time, and evoking the reader to think deeply about the passage of time. This notion of time permeates the entire poem, and one can't help but fall into a contemplation of the shortness of life.
Secondly, Su Shi expressed the beauty of the Spring Festival vividly through the delicate description of "flowers have fragrance and moon has shade". He skillfully uses imagery, depicting the scent of flowers and the shadow of the moon, to present the reader with a peaceful and beautiful night scene. This aesthetic description not only makes people feel the tranquility and beauty of the spring night, but also provides a sharp contrast for the criticism that follows, making the poem more vivid and profound.
However, this poem is not only a praise of beauty, but also a subtle analysis of social phenomena. When Su Shi wrote, "The sound of the song pipe building is thin, and the swing courtyard is heavy at night", revealing his deep thinking about the vanity and pleasure of the society at that time. Here, by depicting the sounds and horses of the court, he points out the corruption of the ranks in the court and the addiction to pleasure. In this vanity and pleasure, people seem to forget the passage of time and ignore what is more precious.
It is worth mentioning that Su Shi did not stop at revealing social phenomena in this poem, but also expressed his worries about people who were overly addicted to pleasure through the warning of "Shaohua is fleeting". His description of "the prime minister under the pillar still has teeth, and the history of Jiangnan thorns has no intestines" profoundly reflects the ruthlessness of the passage of time for everyone, and the pathosis of over-indulging in pleasure.
Overall, Su Shi's "Spring Night" is not only a poem that depicts a beautiful spring night, but also shows the poet's profound thinking about life and sharp criticism of social ills through the delicate observation of time, society and human nature. This dual focus on beauty and society has made this poem still have far-reaching significance and thought-provoking for thousands of years.
