Seek the appreciation of Chuzhou impression! ! !

Alone, grass grows by the stream, and orioles sing on the trees.

The spring tide brought the rain late and urgent, and there was no boat on the wild crossing.

-Wei in Xixi Chuzhou

This is one of the Tang poems I have recited before. Later, I became fascinated with calligraphy. This poem was once my favorite copy. Chuzhou, like a familiar old friend, came into my heart like running water, stepping on the rhythm of Tang poetry and modern cursive script. But the impression is vague, scattered and unpredictable. Subconsciously, Chuzhou is like a ferry, flowing on the riverbed of my memory with Mashang River.

Say goodbye to the peach and plum door wall and step onto the green apricot altar. Because there is Ouyang Xiu's Zuiweng Pavilion in the textbook and the phrase "The Chu River is surrounded by mountains", I have a Chuhe City surrounded by mountains in my heart, and all my memories are full of Zuiweng Pavilion and the shadow of white-haired and humble Ouyang Taishou. At that time, my attention was focused on Ouyang Xiu's ill-fated life. I am a great genius in ancient times. I am indignant at this bad luck and my heart is full of ups and downs.

My memory, uninvited at first, followed the historical context, got into the classics and wandered under Ouyang Gong's door. In the nether world, I am like an invisible hand, tapping the keyboard of time, and lines of words are beating in my eyes: Ouyang Xiu (1007- 1072), the word Yongshu, an alcoholic, the late Liu Yiju, and Luling (now Jishui, Jiangxi). At the age of four, he was lonely. His mother taught him to read by drawing sand. Practice hard, study hard and understand others quickly. In the eighth year of Renzong Tiansheng (1030), he was a scholar, and since then he has embarked on his official career, serving as an admonition officer, official to deputy history, and political commissar. He cultivates honesty and dares to speak out. In his early years, he supported Fan Zhongyan's political reform and was demoted several times. In his later years, he wrote to point out the disadvantages of Chen's Young Crop Law, which was contrary to Wang Anshi's political views and tried to resign. Xiu died at the age of sixty-six, posthumous title Wenzhong.

The monotonous and dry words are not enough to contrast Ouyang Xiu's image of staying in the mountains. I know that Ouyang Xiu was a leading figure in the literary world of the Northern Song Dynasty. He made great efforts to reward backward students, and Su brothers and other essays were swept out of the house. He and his literary friends, Mei, worked together to sweep away the brilliant and obscure style of writing of the school. Ouyang Xiu also co-edited the Book of the New Tang Dynasty with Song Qi and wrote the History of the New Five Dynasties. Ouyang Xiu is also an expert in poetry. His Answer to Yuan Zhen has long been a household name. The word "how deep is the courtyard" in his "butterfly lovers", followed by three words "deep", can be described as extraordinary brushwork. Xia Tan's "tears without words asking for flowers, flying red over the swing" is even more profound and graceful. Mr. Qing Mao Shuxian commented: "The sadder a person is, the more annoying the flowers are, the shallower the words are, the more meaningful they are, and there is no effort to describe them. Are they really not deep or muddy? " As for his Ode to Autumn Sound, when I was a normal student in my early years, my teacher attended Jun Qing's Ode to Autumn Color, and compared the two poems together, thinking that Ouyang Gong's ode was negative and Jun Qing's ode was positive. I don't think so. I think this is making fun of our predecessors and belittling them. Although Jun Qing is a famous contemporary essayist, how can he compete with the master? I think Guan Gong's cross talk with Qin Qiong is very interesting. If Mr Jun Qing knew, he wouldn't approve of our teacher's comparison. Su Shi's Preface to the Collection of Six-Day Laymen has the praise of "Tao is like Han Yu, things are like Li Zhi, and records are like Sima Qian"; Wang Anshi praised his prose "Hao Jian Regal" in the article "Sacrificing Ouyang Wenzhong". In a word, I appreciate his book A Book with Gauss best. He analyzed Gao Ruoyi's personality from different levels of history, saying that "there are four years in ten years, and there are three doubts". From doubt to belief, he directly denounced Gao Ruoyi as a "thief of a gentleman", peeled a banana and killed his heart. When he reached the bone, he criticized him with words and strokes, which was more severe than an axe. Later, Ouyang Xiu was found guilty and demoted to Yiling Order. On his way to his post, he wrote to Yin Shilu, saying, "In the past, anvil, axe, tripod and cymbals were all things that cooked and chopped people, but when a scholar died, he followed them like pillows." Its unswerving spirit can shine on the sun and the moon. No wonder, after reading this article, Huang Tingjian wrote down the words "worship Wan Li" to express his feelings.

Ouyang Xiu's letter this time, let me see the legacy of Tai Shigong's defense of Li Ling in those days, and Bai Juyi's letter "Please arrest the thief urgently to repay the national humiliation". 1036, Fan Zhongyan was demoted to Dengzhou for offending Lv Yijian in the New Deal. After the defense was demoted, Yin Shilu supported the crime, and the power of rape was impregnable. Fan Fu shook a tree and broke his head, which deserved bad luck. Yu, Yin doesn't understand the times, has a donkey temper, and deserves to be whipped. If in today's officialdom, those who don't fall are all nobles, who is an idiot to beat people's bad luck? But Ouyang Xiu is thirty years old, covered in blood, and still insists on going to this muddy water. It's strange that he didn't get soaked in the end! But in my opinion, he is a phoenix soaring in turbid water, with the fatigue of fighting, flying to Yiling, the second phoenix tree in his life. Although snow can crush branches, frozen thunder can shake bamboo shoots, but Ouyang Xiu, who once made a guest appearance in Luoyang, can "smell the wild incense late."

You see, speaking of which, my eyes are still on Ouyang Gong. Because in my mind, Ouyang Xiuzhi and Chuzhou are diamonds and necks, lamps and halls. Once placed in Chuzhou, Chuzhou will double its value and shine brilliantly. Unfortunately, Chuzhou at this time did not have such a blessing. 1036, Chuzhou is doomed to endure another decade of gloom.

Later, I checked the historical materials and learned that Si Marui had been here to avoid chaos. After he proclaimed himself emperor, he changed this mountain to Langya Mountain. There is a "Hongxue Cave" in Langya Mountain. When Liu Bangbing defeated Xiang Yu, he met a woodcutter to lead the way and escaped through this cave. Zhao Kuangyin also attacked Liu Customs clearance in Chuzhou, wisely beheaded Huang Fuhui and captured Yao Feng alive. On the other hand, the monk Chen Fa built Baoying Temple in Langya, which attracted worshippers of incense and bells and drums. But all this seems to be just the material of an essay, piled up on the pages of Chuzhou without any intention. I am still quietly waiting for everyone to see the pearl and make the finishing point, and this person is Ouyang Xiu. And he is still in twists and turns, just like the overture of a brilliant movement, the preface of a poem, which is coming to the main theme and theme.

In the seventh year of Song Renzong (1047), Ouyang Xiu suffered another setback in his career and was driven out of the pavilion and the capital to travel to Chuzhou. But this time Ouyang Gong did not denounce the adulterer, and was convicted and demoted. He didn't bring this honor and pride to Chuzhou, but he was burdened with an unwarranted charge of "immorality", which made people talk about it after dinner. It was "peach news". This really makes Ouyang Gong feel helpless and ashamed. Well-informed Chuzhou people, Ji Ji looked up and pointed, and the streets were long and short for a while, which made people chew their tongues. I think this is probably the main reason why Ouyang Xiu felt so depressed, so tired, so old and so lonely after being demoted to Chuzhou. Fortunately, people are water, as long as you are willing to put yourself in, you are a fish in the water; Man is a forest. As long as you are willing to fly in, you are a bird out of the cage. Ouyang Gong may have realized this. In addition to government affairs, put down the satrap and follow the folk diet. The harmony between the government and the people is something that officials who like to do "people-friendly show" can't learn. There are also entanglements at ordinary times, but it is purely for official entertainment. It was not until the Chinese New Year that I was merciful, thinking of poor households and laid-off workers, and then going to "humanistic care"; Let those who are embarrassed by suffering hold solatium in their hands and be grateful; The journalist went to grab the camera. Things have changed, and they are gone.

After the expiration of one term of office, Ouyang Gong left office, and Chuzhou citizens took to the road to see him off, unable to bear to say goodbye. Ouyang Xiu wrote a tearful poem to bid farewell to his elders;

The spring is bright, and the flowers are bright. Send me before flowers and after drinking.

Drunk as usual, not playing other notes for stringed instruments.

It was not until more than ten years later that Ouyang Xiu ended his career of being demoted and returned to North Korea. He also received a pair of white rabbits from Chu Renmei. Ouyang Xiu was very excited. He invited Mei and Wang Anshi to read poems to the rabbit. Today, this is an incomprehensible move, but Alzheimer's disease is on the list.

The current officials will leave when their term expires. If they are demoted, they will leave sadly, afraid of losing face, quietly and dejected. If it is a flat transfer, then several cars in this unit and several cars in another unit seem to be married, or they are handing over property and giving people a banquet. If it is a promotion, those sycophants will carefully arrange, invite the heads of all units to form a farewell team, fire guns along the way and send them to their posts. Everything is official, cars come and go, and people in any place either look at the guests coldly, or are scared away by their momentum or fooled. This is the same as when feudal officials went to work in the past, ringing gongs to clear the way, exchanging greetings, covering the sky with flags and swimming snakes with ceremonies. I'm flattered.

It is said that when Ouyang Xiu was in the pavilion, Lv Yijian had ulterior motives, colluded with Xie Qian to frame Ouyang Xiu for having an affair with his niece, and appealed to the emperor for investigation. And the evidence is Ouyang Xiu's words, saying:

Willow in the south of the Yangtze River, with shady lobules, is artificially light and forbearing to fold, and Yinger's twigs are too tender to sing until late spring.

Fourteen or fifteen, leisurely holding the pipa to find it, winnowing money in class and walking down the hall, paying attention when you meet, not to mention now.

At that time, Xiumei lost her husband, and she had nothing to rely on. She brought an orphan girl to repair the door. The orphan girl is only seven years old. The emperor actually listened to the rumor and handed over his dismissal to Kaifeng Yin for trial. Although the charges were unknown, he was exiled to other places. It is impossible to argue with the facts.

Ouyang Xiu came with a "romantic case" on his back. He didn't go with anecdotes, but he left remarkable achievements. This reminds me of his contemporary Fan Zhongyan, who was demoted four times in his life. Every time I was demoted, I was on the same side. Su Shi was demoted three times in his life, and each time he was demoted, he benefited from one side. Now some officials, however, are all officials in one place, and they are romantic; What's more, every official has a place, which hurts one party. Although this is only a minority, we can't help but think of some mistakes in our cadre appointment system.

At this point, you may scold me, write a thousand words, and digress from Wan Li. Yes, as far as the traditional impression is concerned, there is nothing wrong with putting this hat on this article. But the impression I said is not what you think. Otherwise, I don't have to climb the grid with a pen and jump the keyboard with my fingers, not to mention sacrificing a lot of brain cells to let you understand my impression of Chuzhou. I will take my camera and go to Chuncheng to take a "family photo" or "photo album" for Chuncheng. In this way, there are several tall buildings, several streets, all landmark buildings, characteristic shopping malls, demonstration residential quarters and flavor food stalls in Chuncheng.

People speak, the land is passed on by people, people pass on by words, and people are outstanding. It can be seen that people are the charm of a city, the core of its fame, and the place where a city can really attract and impress people, just like a person's temperament and spirit. So every time I go to a city, I am not keen on its beautiful architecture, prosperous economy and fashionable clothes, but pay attention to its cultural heritage. For this reason, I despise those boring questions such as asking the geometry of youth, working there, how much is the monthly salary, and whether the family is happy. I also hate the impudence of asking for each other's videos at every turn, and the shallowness of meeting each other after a few chats. The friendship between people should be based on the harmony of God, the induction of heart and the voice of love.

Moving by things, I pay more attention to understanding and describing a city from the aspect of cultural literacy. That's why I only passed through Chuzhou twice, and I didn't really meet each other, let alone get familiar with it. I just talked about the impression of Chuzhou. Chuncheng and I are bosom friends in the city, and Ouyang Xiu is a colorful rope in the long river of years. The kind in Yue's veteran made me attached to him and wrote a song for Chuzhou.

Thanks to Chuncheng, I was left with a graceful impression.
