The emperor of China is eager to shake the beauty of an empire. He has been looking for it for many years, but he has never found it.

Until a child of the Yang family grew up in the inner room, almost before she grew up, and no one knew her.

However, due to god's gift and undisguised grace, he was finally elected as a member of the royal family one day [4].

As long as she turned her head and smiled, a hundred spells were cast, and the powder and paint in the sixth house disappeared without a trace.

It was early spring. They bathed her in a pure pool, which warmed and smoothed her cream-colored skin.

As she was weak, a maid was holding her, when the emperor first noticed her and chose her as his bride.

On a spring night, the warm hibiscus curtains covered her fluttering hair, petals on her cheeks and golden ripples on her head.

But the night in spring is short and the sun rises too fast. Since then, the emperor has given up his early hearing.

He wastes all his time on parties and revelry. He is the lover of spring and the tyrant of night.

There are other ladies in his court, 3,000 of whom are stunning beauties, but his love for 3,000 is concentrated on one person.

The Golden House dresses up for the night [1 1]. When the table is cleared in the Jade Tower, she just idles and drinks slowly.

Sisters and brothers are listed in the soil [12], and because she illuminates and glorifies her clan so much [13].

When she gave birth to a girl instead of a boy, she brought happiness to every father and mother in the whole empire.

... from Li Palace, into the blue clouds [15], overlooking the breeze with magic sound.

Soft songs and slow dances, string and bamboo music [16], the emperor's eyes are never enough to stare at her.

Until the war drums, which exploded from Yuyang, shook the earth [17], breaking the tune of rainbow skirts and feather clothes [18].

The Forbidden City, a nine-story palace, is hidden in the dust, and thousands of chariots and horses are marching southwest.

When the imperial flag opened, it suddenly moved and stopped, 30 miles from the capital and passed the west gate.

The army stopped, and no one would stir [22], and Emei died in front of the horse [23].

The flower hairpin fell to the ground and no one picked it up [24], a green and white Hosta and a golden hairy bird [25].

The emperor couldn't save her, so he had to cover his face. Later, when he turned to look, there was blood and tears.

Hidden in the yellow dust blown by the cold wind, they crossed a cloud line at the crack of the path of the dagger tower [26].

Under Emei Mountain. The last few came, and the flags and banners lost their colors in the fading sun.

But the water in Shu is always green and the mountains are always blue, so your majesty's love is constant and deeper than the sky.

He stared at the desolate moon from his temporary palace, and he heard the bells in the late rain cutting his chest.

On this day, I returned to Yulong [30], and the emperor clung to it and refused to leave.

That memory, that pain. Where is her white face? [3 1] Among Maweipo clay figurines.

Rulers and lords, when their eyes met, cried on their coats. They rode horses, loosened the reins and slowly returned to the capital [32].

Pool, garden, palace, everything is the same as before, Taiye Lake hibiscus, Weiyang Palace willow [33].

But the petals are like her face, and the willow leaves are like her eyebrows. Whenever he looks at them, what can he do but cry? .

Peach and plum trees are in bloom. In the spring wind, after the autumn rain, the leaves fall to the ground.

There is a lot of autumn grass in Xigong Nanyuan [34], and there are red leaves piled up on the steps that nobody sweeps.

Bai Fuxin, a disciple of Li Yuan [35], and the eunuch kept a close eye on her pepper yard; [36].

Fireflies were flying on the throne, and he was meditating in the twilight. He will extend the wick to its end and still never fall asleep. [37].

Bells and drums slowly sounded the long night, and before dawn, the rivers of stars in the sky became clearer and clearer.

And the porcelain mandarin ducks on the roof grow thick morning cream [40], who is cold and who is emerald ***[4 1]?

The distance between life and death is year after year, but no beloved soul has visited his dream.

There lived a Taoist priest in Lingqiong, who was a guest of heaven [42] and could be sincere to the depths of his soul.

People were moved by the emperor's constant meditation, and they begged the Taoist priest to see if he could find her.

He blazed a trail in space, cutting through the sky like lightning, rising into the sky, drilling underground and looking around.

Above, he looked for the green void, below, the yellow spring [44], but in these two places, he couldn't find the person he was looking for.

Then he heard a story about a magical island at sea, which is part of the invisible world.

There are pavilions in the colorful air [45], and exquisite immortals move back and forth [46].

And one of them-they call it forever true, has a face like her snow and flowers [47].

So he came to the golden gate of the West Hall, knocked on the Jasper Gate [48], and asked a girl named Xiaoyu to tell Shuang Perfect [49].

This lady, after hearing the news of Emperor China's envoy, woke up from her dream in her canopy.

She pushed open the pillow, got dressed, shook off her drowsiness, opened the pearly curtain, and then opened the silver screen.

Because she left in such a hurry, her muddy hair ornaments hung aside, and when she came along the platform, her flowered hat was loose.

The breeze blew her cloak and fluttered with her movements, as if she were dancing in a rainbow skirt and feather coat.

Tears fell from her sad pale face, like spring rain on pear flowers.

Express gratitude to the king. Since they broke up, his appearance and voice are strange to her.

Because happiness has ended in the court of the bright sun, the moon and dawn have become long in Xianshan Palace.

But when she turned and looked down at the earth, trying to see the capital, there was only fog and dust.

So she took out the keepsake he gave to [57] and gave a box of gold hairpin to [58].

Keep a box and a fan [59], and hold the gold box and divide the cymbals [60].

"Our souls belong to each other," she said, "just like this gold and this shell." Somewhere, at some time, on earth or in heaven, we will be together.

She sent him a message through his messenger, reminding him that only the hearts of the two of them knew the oath.

On the seventh day of July, in the Palace of Eternal Life [6 1], we secretly told each other in the quiet midnight world.

We hope to fly in heaven, and two birds will become one wing and grow together on the earth, two branches of a tree. [63].

The earth endures, and the sky endures; One day both will end, and this endless sadness will last forever.

point out

This is a long narrative poem, which can be divided into four paragraphs. The first paragraph from the beginning to "having a girl is happier than having a boy" describes the meeting between Li and Yang and Li's love for Yang. In the second paragraph, from "... Gao Rose Li Palace" to Yun Lan "Go" to that memory, that depression. Where is her jade-white face? " It is written that the rebellion broke out and the imperial concubine died, and Xuanzong was deeply hurt. In the third paragraph, from "the meeting between the monarch and the minister, tears spilled on the skirt" to "the old friend is not dreaming", after returning to Chang' an, I miss Yang. The fourth paragraph describes Yang's loyalty to Li from "Lingqiong is a Taoist priest who lives in heaven" to the end. Although the description of Li and Yang's love affair in the whole poem has certain historical facts and legendary basis, it also incorporates the author's artistic imagination and thoughts and feelings, so this narrative poem has romantic legend and rich lyrical atmosphere.

This poem tells a beautified court love tragedy. The author is full of ridicule for Li's mistakes in indulging his country in his early years. The author feels sorry for Li and Yang's later parting of life and death. The author deeply sympathizes with the deep feelings between Li and Yang, despite the barriers between man and nature. Although the content of this poem is also ironic, the tone is obviously sympathy and appreciation.

The plot of this poem is tortuous and vivid, both because of the bizarre love affair between Li and Yang itself and because of the poet's careful conception. It stands to reason that by the time the imperial concubine died, the tragedy had been completed, but the author was ingenious. He wrote Xuanzong's thoughts on Yang on his way to Sichuan, back to Beijing and back to Chang 'an, and wrote the emotional activities of the characters in detail, which promoted the plot to continue to develop in depth. This not only gave birth to a series of plots in the fourth paragraph, which made the poem rise again, but also wrote the real feelings of ordinary people in The Emperor, which greatly aggravated the tragic atmosphere of the story and strengthened the theme of "Eternal Sorrow"

The author made great efforts to shape two characters. For Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, it mainly highlights that he indulged in the wrong country in the early stage and loved one Yang in the later stage. For Yang Guifei, the focus is on her beautiful charm and her loyalty to Xuanzong after she entered the fairy. The author went deep into the inner world of two characters and vividly wrote their psychological activities. For example, in the third paragraph, the following words "fireflies are flying on the throne while he is meditating in the twilight." Describe Xuanzong's psychological activities from evening to night, late at night, dawn and early morning; For example, in the fourth paragraph, "The news of Madam He, the special envoy of the emperor in China", these sentences describe the feelings of the imperial concubine, such as shock, excitement, uncertainty, longing, injustice, sadness and gratitude. Poets try their best to figure out the inner activities of characters and give full play to their artistic imagination, so their writing is quite reasonable. This poem is beautiful in narrative, easy and lyrical, touching and delicate, well organized, coherent, beautiful and lively in language, natural and smooth; The rhetorical devices such as antithesis, parallelism and thimble are skillfully and roundly used. These artistic features, coupled with the above, make this poem regarded as the swan song of ancient songs by later generations.
