What does it mean that the bed at the foot of my bed is shining so brightly?

In fact, this bed refers to the ancient "well site".

From two aspects, people in ancient times liked to sit around the well, and the well became a public place for people to communicate. First of all, people drink water, or women wash clothes with water. Besides, the well is cold.

In summer, ancient people had no entertainment at night, so they could only gather at the well to chat and chat, and children were playing nearby. After the research of archaeologists, the well site is surrounded by wooden fences to protect the well wall from collapse.

On the other hand, in order to prevent people from falling in, the protruding wooden structure is particularly like an ancient bed, also called a "silver bed", so it makes sense to interpret the bed as a "well site".

Moreover, Li Bai went out to see the moon at night, whether he turned the moonlight into frost or lifted himself up to see it. I found that it was moonlight and there must be a certain distance from the bridge. At this time, the height of the well site is also in line with the height of looking at the moon, so the most reasonable explanation is that Li Bai looked at the moonlight in front of the well site and felt deeply homesick. He wrote "Thinking about a Quiet Night", which has been handed down for generations.

Extended data:

Bed: five statements.

1 refers to the well platform. Some scholars have written an article to verify. Shi Cheng, director of China Educators Association, published the research results in a paper and created a poetic map with friends.

2. Well site. According to archaeological findings, the earliest well in China was a wooden well. The ancient well site was several meters high, and the wellhead was enclosed in the shape of a box to prevent people from falling into the well. The box is shaped like four walls and an old bed.

Therefore, the ancient mine field is also called the silver bed, which means that there is a relationship between the well and the bed, and the relationship occurs because they are similar in shape and function. In the ancient Jingtian system, there was a special word to refer to it, and that was the word "Korea". Shuowen interprets "Han" as "Yuan Jing Ye", which means shaft lining.

3. "Bed" is a general term for "window".

4. take the original meaning, that is, the appliance of sitting and lying. There is a saying of "carrying difficulties" in The Book of Songs and Xiaoya's Four Cadres, and there is also a saying of "being safe when you are down" in Yi Pi Wang Dig Notes, which is about paving the way.

5. Some people think that bed should be interpreted as Hu bed. Hu bed, also known as "bed", "chair" and "rope bed". In ancient times, it was a portable seat that could be folded. Mazar-e functions like a small bench, but the surface on which people sit is not a board, but something like folding cloth, and the legs on both sides can be folded.

Modern people are often mistaken for "Hu bed" or "bed" in ancient literature or poetry. At the latest in the Tang Dynasty, "bed" was still "Hu bed" (that is, mazha, a kind of seat).
