Creation background

This poem was written when the author first worshipped the Prime Minister and started his New Deal. 1067, Song Shenzong succeeded to the throne, and Wang Anshi was appointed as the magistrate of Jiangning, and then he was appointed as a bachelor and lecturer of Hanlin. In order to get rid of the political and economic crisis faced by the Song Dynasty and the constant intrusion of Liao and Xixia, in A.D. 1068, the gods called Wang Anshi to "enter the DPRK again and again", and Wang Anshi immediately wrote a letter advocating political reform. The following year, he devoted himself to politics and presided over the political reform. During the Spring Festival in the same year, Wang Anshi saw that every household was busy preparing for the Spring Festival, and he wrote this poem with emotion when he thought of the new atmosphere at the beginning of the political reform.
