The poetry of the second restaurant

The second poetic meaning of going to the restaurant is: I drink for a long time these days, and I am often drunk, but this has nothing to do with the pursuit of inner "spirituality". How can I bear to be awake alone when everyone else is drunk?

Appreciation

Wang Ji was addicted to alcohol and claimed that seeking an official position was a "loveable and good thing". It is known as "Bachelor of Wine Fighting" and "Nan and Dong of Restaurants". He wrote "The Biography of Mr. Wu Dou" and "Ji Xiang Ji" to show his excellence, and he admired the styles of Liu Ling, Ruan Ji and Tao Yuanming. He lived his whole life in drunken dreams, was deposed because of his drinking, and was also famous for his drinking. "Passing the Restaurant" and "Inscribed on the Wall of the Restaurant" are two of the five poems in total.

My first impression was in Kyoto, where no one recommended me, so I had no choice but to dive into a wine shop. This poem continues the explanation of the reason for drunkenness: "Drinking for a long time during these days has nothing to do with nourishing the spirit." Drinking for a long time during these days often leads to drunkenness, but this has nothing to do with the inner pursuit of "spirituality."

“How can you bear to wake up alone when you see someone drunk!” These two sentences are a supplement to the previous two sentences, explaining the reason for not “nurturing the soul” but “drinking for a long time”. On the surface, it seems that you are talking about yourself. Being drunk is going with the flow, but it actually means the opposite. "Seeing" and "how could I bear to" see the pain and helplessness in it. From the wine talk that makes people drunk and themselves drunk, the strong consciousness bursts out the anger and dissatisfaction of "the whole world is muddy, you can't talk to Zhuang".

Qu Yuan is used literally, "The whole world is turbid, I alone am clear; the whole world is drunk, I alone am awake." ("Chu Ci: Fisherman") and precedes "He Ren" to strengthen the intensity of the tone, It reflects a clear sense of "high emotion and winning spirit, unrivaled at the time" (Xin Yuanfang's "Biography of Talented Scholars of the Tang Dynasty·Wang Ji").

Wang Ji was living in the decline and chaos of the late Sui Dynasty. During the great cause of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, "not happy to be in the court" was the secretary's official character, and he asked to be Liuhe Cheng. He witnessed the reality of "wolves blocking the road", that is, He used his salary money to accumulate in the county gate, abandoned his official position and returned to his hometown. When he left, he sighed: "The snare is in the sky, I will make it safe!" This kind of danger of "I am a fish in a rut" is exactly what happens when people are drunk and the world is in a state of confusion. The piercing pain caused by the premonition that the country will be defeated. Therefore, "cannot bear to wake up alone" contains the contradictory reasons of seeking drunkenness. It is a recluse and a cynic.

This poem fits the tone of a person who has been drinking for a long time. It blurts out without thinking, and seems to be open-minded. However, the depressed thoughts are made more real with the help of five unique short sentences. . It is different from the light and flamboyant palace style poems that were rampant in the late Sui Dynasty, and also different from the more colorful style of the Six Dynasties that was popular in the early Tang Dynasty. It is rare." (Weng Fanggang's "Shizhou Poetry").
