Elegant things: looking for seclusion
The creek is deep and the trees are dense and uninhabited, only the fragrance of the flowers and water. Song: Wang Anshi's "On the Tiantong Mountain Stream" Translation: The mountains are lush and green, and the depths of the creek are densely shaded and uninhabited, only the secluded wildflowers exude a charming fragrance. This is a poem composed by Wang Anshi as the county magistrate of Yin County (located in present-day Zhejiang Province) and visited Tiantong Mountain. The first time I read these two sentences, I felt that I had entered a quiet and dusty picture, which was overgrown with towering ancient trees and a clear stream meandering. Walking through the quiet mountain forest, you can feel a refreshing and vigorous greenery as you walk through the fine sunlight sprinkled through the branches and leaves. Everything in the mountains is casual and tranquil, the stream is silently moistening the flowers and trees, and the fragrance of the flowers comes from across the stream. I can't help but think of the Xinyi flower in Wang Wei's pen, "The stream is lonely, and it blooms and falls." Perhaps Wang Anshi and Wang Wei at this moment have the same idea, they are both small flowers in the mountains that bloom and fall spontaneously and do not ask for beauty.

And here in Su Shi, he compares Jia Ming to a beautiful woman, which is about the inspiration given to him by the red face Chaoyun around him, the girl who is blooming like a flower in her cardamom years. Just as when he first saw Chaoyun, he integrated his praise for her into the West Lake in his pen, "If you want to compare West Lake to Xizi, light makeup and heavy makeup are always appropriate."
