Chapter 107 Worry about the world's worries first, and enjoy the world's joys later... (subscribe)
"In the spring of the fourth year of Qingli, Teng Zijing was exiled to guard Baling County..."

This sentence is easy to understand.

He was talking about the fourth year of Qingli, which was the same as what Chen Fan had told before.

This year, Teng Zijing was demoted to Baling. Yueyang was called Yuezhou in ancient times, also known as Baling.
"In the next year, the government will be smooth and the people will be harmonious, and a hundred wastes will be prosperous. The Yueyang Tower will be rebuilt, and its old system will be added. Poems from Tang sages and modern people will be engraved on it, which belongs to my composition to remember..."

This is the background of Yueyang Tower.

It means that Teng Zijing wanted to rebuild the Yueyang Tower in fear of the ruins in Yuezhou.And engrave the poems of Tang Xianren and modern people on it, and write down the articles.Therefore, Fan Zhongyan was invited to write this piece of Yueyang Tower.

"Yueyang Tower" is not a poem, but a prose.

"Dongting Yueyang" is also prose.

This is about the same as modern composition, prose...

A good prose can not only make people feel refreshed, but also benefit people a lot, and even spread it all over the world.

The previous "Dongting Yueyang" is a classic prose, and many people can also recite it.

"It looks pretty well written."

"It's easy to read, and it's quite emotional."

"It's still not as good as "Dongting Yueyang"."

"That is, after all, "Dongting Yueyang" is an article that has been passed down through the ages, how could "Yueyang Tower" be comparable."

In the end it is preconceived, and many people have commented on it.

However, Chen Fan ignored them, and continued to read: "I see my husband Baling's victory, in a lake in Dongting. With a distant mountain in his mouth, swallowing the Yangtze River, a vast soup, endless horizons, morning sunshine and evening shade, myriads of weather. Then the grand view of Yueyang Tower..."

If we say that everyone had preconceived notions about "Dongting Yueyang" at the beginning.

Well, when Chen Fan read this, all the spectators and netizens were somewhat uneasy at the moment.

"Holding the distant mountains, swallowing the Yangtze River, vast soup... What kind of sentence is this?"

"There is no limit to the horizon, the sun shines in the morning and the shadows in the evening, and the weather is myriad... This power... should not be inferior to "Dongting Yueyang"."

"probably……"

Many people at the scene looked at me and I looked at you, and they all saw incomparable inconceivableness in their eyes.

Yes.

Even if they have preconceived concepts, they are still shocked when they encounter such an article.

but.

After all, they have studied "Dongting Yueyang" since they were young, and they still can't believe it in their hearts.

But Chen Fan continued to read: "Predecessors' descriptions are prepared. However, the Wu Gorge in the north, Xiaoxiang in the Antarctic, and migrants and poets will often come here, and the feeling of viewing things is the same?"

The previous "Holding the distant mountains, swallowing the Yangtze River..." introduced the general landscape of Yueyang Tower.

This sentence says that although many predecessors have described the landscape of Yueyang Tower, it leads to Wu Gorge in the north and Xiaoshui River and Xiangjiang River in the south. Many poets who recite poems and Fu and officials who have been demoted will gather here to watch the scenery. The emotions triggered by the natural scenery here will also have different emotions.

In fact, this is not a scene anymore.

But nonetheless.

This Yueyang Tower is just a short paragraph, and the hearts of the people are one after another.

"It seems that you can really PK with "Dongting Yueyang"."

"Although this article is prose, it reads like poetry, and it is extremely atmospheric."

"From this point of view, Dongting Yueyang... seems to be a little inferior."

Everyone couldn't hold back the excitement in their hearts at this moment.

because.

From childhood to adulthood, what they received was "Dongting Yueyang".

In their hearts, they feel that the best article to write about Yueyang Tower is "Dongting Yueyang".

But now.

As soon as Chen Fan's "Yueyang Tower" came out, it was as brilliant as the stars day and night, incomparably brilliant.

Even if everyone can't be sure now that this article can compete with "Yueyang Tower", they already know that this is also a rare classic.

But what they don't know is.

For Chen Fan.

In fact, the short section in front is just an appetizer for Yueyang Tower.

In other words, this is just a small foreshadowing for him.

As Fan Zhongyan said, predecessors have already said a lot about the beauty of Yueyang Tower, so he doesn't want to say more.

But even if you don't want to say any more, just a few words of "holding the distant mountains, swallowing the Yangtze River, vast soup..." has already surpassed countless predecessors.

What is literary talent, this is it.

Fan Zhongyan is not only a good official, but also a good writer.

But the beauty of "Yueyang Tower" is not just here.

Then, Chen Fan continued to read: "If the husband is obscene and rainy, the moon never blooms, the wind is howling, the turbid waves are empty, the sun and stars are hidden, the mountains are hidden, business travel is not possible, the masts are falling and the boats are destroyed, the twilight is dark, the tiger roars and the monkey Crying. Ascending Silou, there are those who go to the country and nostalgia for their hometown, worry about slander, fear ridicule, look desolate, feel extremely sad.

As far as Ruochun and Jingming, the waves are calm, the sky is light up and down, a vast expanse of blue, sand gulls flying, golden scales swimming, shore Zhitinglan, lush and green.And maybe the long smoke is gone, the bright moon is thousands of miles away, the floating light jumps into gold, the still shadow sinks into the jade, and the fisherman's songs answer each other. What a joy!Ascending Silou, there are those who feel relaxed and happy, forget favors and disgraces together, and enjoy the wine with the wind. "

These two paragraphs are two parallel paragraphs, one sad and joyful, one dark and the other bright, showing two completely different life situations.

The first paragraph begins with "Ruo Fu", which means a long time.

Taking advantage of the bad weather, it tells about the feelings of literati and poets who "go to the country to cherish their hometown", "worry about slander and fear ridicule".

But the feelings are sad and happy.

Where there is sadness, there is joy.

The next paragraph uses the sunny scene to talk about entertainment and pleasing the mind...especially one of the lines "Deng Si Lou Ye".

The joy I felt was beyond words.

of course.

Not everyone can understand this passage at once.

But it's okay not to understand.

Just from the literal meaning, you can feel the extraordinary of this article.

as now.

On the public channel, it has been crazily typed: "Awesome, awesome, awesome."

"My grass, my grass, my grass..."

"666, 666, 666..."

no way.

Everyone's level is like this, and they can only say these words.

but.

For some people with a higher level of appreciation, they faintly feel that these two dual paragraphs are not as simple as they appear on the surface.

like.

The author seems to be writing about scenery, but in fact he is writing about love.

It seems to be about love, but it is actually about people.

but.

After all, it was the first time they heard it, and they still couldn't fully understand the summary of this "Yueyang Tower".

But never mind.

The above content, you can go back and experience it slowly.

And one last paragraph.

Taking three deep breaths, Chen Fan said: "My husband! I have tried to seek the benevolent heart of the ancients, or the difference between the two. Why not? Don't be happy with things, don't be sad with yourself. If you live in a high temple, you will worry about its people. If you live in the rivers and lakes If you are far away, you worry about your lord. It is also worrying about advancing, and worrying about retreating. But when will you be happy? It must be said, "Worry about the world's worries first, and enjoy the world's joy later"! Hey! Weisi people, who am I? And return?"

Huofu is a modal particle without much meaning. It can be understood as, ah...

Having said that, the following is the author's own experience:

I once searched for the thoughts and feelings of people with high moral character in ancient times. They may be different from the above two moods. What is the reason for this?

This is because they have the noble sentiment of not being happy with things, not sad with themselves.

And going a step further, it is that if you live in a high temple, you will worry about your people, and if you live far away from the rivers and lakes, you will worry about your king.

At this time, you may say, well, you are very sad when you are an official, and you are also very sad when you are not an official.

So, when can you feel happy?
then.

This is the quatrain that has been passed down through the ages: "Worry about the world's worries first, and enjoy the world's joys later..."

Chen Fan finished reading an article.

at this moment.

The entire square, all the netizens, all the tourists... There is no "Dongting Yueyang" in my mind anymore.
