The writing background of Xijiangyue Huangling Temple

Zhang Xiaoxiang worked in Tanzhou, Song Xiaozong (now Changsha, Hunan) for three years (A.D. 1 167). In a short time, I got another job. I had planned to leave Hunan and go north by boat, passing through Huangling Mountain near Dongting Lake. I was blocked by the windshield and wrote this word. The author and friends mentioned in the letter that "someone is still under the Huangling Temple ten days away from Changsha, and Fengbo, Chen Bo is also good at drama."

Huangling Temple near the North Dongting Lake in Xiangyin County, Hunan Province is a beautiful and sad love story. According to historical records? Chronology of the Five Emperors, who went hunting in the south, died in Cangwu and was buried in Jiuyi Mountain in the south of the Yangtze River. "Zhu? Xiang Shui and others developed the story to E Huang and Nv Ying successively, because the idolized Shun Di drowned in Xiang Shui, which deepened the love and tragedy of the original legend. Later generations even imagined the spots on bamboo as the tears of the second princess looking at the sky and the river. In ancient times, the local people sympathized with Shun Di's two concubines, E Huang and Nv Ying, and built this temple for them. But this word has nothing to do with sad love, but expresses a philosophy of life that goes with the flow.

In the first part, I wrote what I saw and felt when my boat was stopped by the wind on the river.

"A boat full of autumn colors, covered with ten miles of lake light." The first two sentences, write the scenery before the storm. Autumn colors on a boat is the author's emotional work, which outlines the characteristics of seasons and makes people daydream. The author looks around, the mountains are rich and vigorous, everything is full of vitality, and the red Huang Yanli is fruitful; "Ten Miles of Lake Light" is about the vastness and magnanimity of the lake. These two sentences are antithetical, and the lakes and mountains are painted together with "full load" and "tiled". The previous sentence said that the beautiful autumn scenery has a panoramic view; When there is no wind, the lake is calm. From a distance, it seems to be "tiled" there. The beautiful autumn scenery is reflected on the calm lake, with beautiful scenery and complement each other, stretching for ten miles. It is really refreshing and picturesque. These two sentences are purely about scenery, and the author's happiness is in them, which is the so-called love in the scenery.

The sentence "Poseidon" is anthropomorphic, and the water god deliberately refuses to let me see the beautiful sunset, causing ripples like fish scales. At this time, the weather changed suddenly, and the scenery on the lake was written at the beginning of the breeze. Judging from the fact that the author had been delayed for several days at that time, the wind and waves at that time should be very heavy. At this time, experienced boatmen will inevitably break down and take emergency measures, because the sun is shining, and after the "small waves", it will be the bad weather described by Fan Zhongyan in Yueyang Tower. These two sentences humorously wrote that the ship was blocked by the strong wind and forced to dock, which reflected the author's very relaxed mood at this time. The setting sun indicates that the time is in the evening, and the small waves indicate that the storm has suddenly started. This is really a great pen.

The following film describes the author's psychological activities after stopping the ship. "The wind will be better tomorrow" says that he expects the wind to turn and the weather will get better. "What's wrong with sleeping outside tonight?" What happened? Although he is looking forward to a better tomorrow, he is still optimistic about today's "sleeping out". Clothes in the Crystal Palace and Crystal Palace are commonly known as Dragon Palace. "Nishang", or "colorful feather", describes the myth that Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty yearned for immortals and went to the Moon Palace to visit them. Its dance, interest and costumes are devoted to depicting the illusory fairyland and dancing fairy image. It is a masterpiece of song and dance in the Tang Dynasty and a bright pearl in the history of music and dance in China. When the author heard the sound of the waves, his peculiar imagination came to life, and it was wonderful to compare the underwater sound to the music of the Dragon Palace. Since the Dragon Palace has played a festive role, it must be sunny tomorrow and the ship can move forward normally. "It must be planned on Yueyang Tower", and the last sentence envisages enjoying the beautiful scenery of Dongting Lake on Yueyang Tower tomorrow.

This word is easy to write the scene where the ship is blocked by the wind, write the scenery, express feelings, and even imagine "tomorrow" without any frustration. The language of the whole poem is simple and elegant, which only makes us feel the author's infinite love for mountains and rivers, but he is not annoyed that the ship is blocked by the headwind. It reminds us of Fan Zhongyan's heroic mind of "not rejoicing in things, not grieving for oneself" and Su Shi's philosophical mind of "making a lifetime of sorrow" in Ding Feng.
