The videos I watched became popular in ancient times

A woman experienced the destruction of her country and her family.

A woman wrote an immortal poem.

When it comes to the woman Li Qingzhao, everyone is familiar with her.

She is not only beautiful, but also very talented.

Those classic poems handed down from generation to generation are all amazing.

She pioneered the graceful and elegant style of poetry and was honored as the greatest talented woman of all time.

In the two thousand years of poetry art, men have always been the absolute protagonists.

Although there are often female poets, they are like shooting stars passing by.

It was not until the Song Dynasty that Li Qingzhao's sudden emergence brought a breath of fresh air to the literary world.

Her works are no less impressive than those of first-rate male poets.

Because of Li Qingzhao, there is a fresh feminine style in the history of literature.

Because of her rough experience, Li Qingzhao contributed immortal masterpieces to future generations.

For thousands of years, everyone has praised Li Qingzhao and admired her works.

"Born into a scholarly family, Li Qingzhao naturally had a carefree and happy teenage life."

"Her father, Li Gefei, was a Jinshi (a successful candidate in the imperial examination) and had a brilliant career path. He was also a student of the great writer Su Shi."

"Her mother, Wang, also came from a scholarly family, with a strong literary and artistic atmosphere."

"Li Qingzhao grew up in such a happy family. With the love of her parents and the influence of a good family tradition, she lived a happy life as a child."

"Li Qingzhao was also extremely gifted and intelligent, and she also received guidance from famous literary figures, so she was talented from a young age."

"Li Qingzhao made her mark in the field of poetry when she was a teenager, and she wrote some of the most famous poems that have been passed down through the ages."

"When Li Qingzhao was a child, she was swinging on the swing at home when she encountered a man who broke in. She then wrote down "Dian Jiang Shen" without thinking."

"Stop playing on the swing, get up and straighten your slender hands."

"The dew is thick and the flowers are thin, but the sweat is thin and the clothes are light."

"When guests come in, the gold hairpin slips out of their socks."

"He walked away in shame, leaning against the door and looking back, sniffing the green plums."

"Li Qingzhao vividly described how she shyly hid herself after someone broke into her yard."

"But I wanted to see who this person was, so I leaned against the door and looked back, sniffing the green plum."

"In this poem, Li Qingzhao wrote very candidly about the beauty and happiness of her childhood."

"For example, the poem "Ru Meng Ling" was written by Li Qingzhao when she visited Kyoto and felt happy in the place called Xiting."

"I often remember that the sun is setting in the brook pavilion, and I don't know the way back when I am intoxicated."

"Returning to the boat late after all the fun, and straying into the depths of lotus flowers."

"Strive for the crossing, fight for the crossing, startle a sea of ​​gulls and herons."

"When Li Qingzhao was 18 years old, she married Zhao Mingcheng, the son of Zhao Tingzhi, a minister of the Ministry of Personnel, who was a suitable match for her."

"It was a long period of happiness after marriage. The couple loved each other and encouraged each other."

"Her husband Zhao Mingcheng liked to collect jade, and Li Qingzhao gave him strong support."

"The couple encouraged each other in their love of literature and art, and often went to the market together to look for collections."

"Every time I buy everything, I come back with a full load."

"Zhao Mingcheng wanted to write a "Record of Gold and Stone", but his memory was not very good."

"Whenever she couldn't remember where the jade came from, Li Qingzhao, who was well-informed and had a good memory, could tell it without thinking."

"Zhao Mingcheng, unwilling to admit defeat, made a bet with Li Qingzhao that whoever could accurately tell the origin of the jade first would get to drink tea first. In the end, Li Qingzhao won every time."

"Every time Li Qingzhao told the origin of the jade, she would laugh out loud."

"After pouring the tea on the clothes, the couple was immediately intoxicated by the fragrance of the tea, and felt very happy and comfortable."

"On the Double Ninth Festival in 1101 AD, Zhao Mingcheng traveled far away after his marriage."

"After enjoying the chrysanthemums while drinking wine at home, Li Qingzhao wrote the poem "Drunk in the Flower Shade" out of longing for her husband."

"Li Qingzhao immediately sent it to Zhao Mingcheng, who, after reading it, was inspired to compete with him."

"So I shut myself in for three days and wrote fifty poems of the same style, mixing in Li Qingzhao's "Drunk in the Flower Shade" and gave them to my friends to comment on and see which lines were well written."

"After reading this, my friend thought that the three lines that are the best are: "Don't say it's not heartbreaking, the curtains are rolled up by the west wind, and people are thinner than yellow flowers."

"When Zhao Mingcheng heard this, he was deeply impressed. His wife's talent far surpassed his own."

Liu Rushi: Although Li Qingzhao was fond of drinking, gambling and lust, she can still be regarded as the greatest female poet of all time.

Li Qingzhao not only loved wine, but also left behind many poems related to drinking.

It can be said that Li Qingzhao was a heavy drinker who was no less than a man.

Although Li Qingzhao was a woman, she often invited some literati and scholars to her home for banquets and entertainment.

Not only do they drink, but they also play drinking games to liven up the atmosphere.

Li Qingzhao's early poem "Ru Meng Ling" often recalls the sunset at the creek pavilion, when she was so drunk that she didn't know the way home.

In other words, Li Qingzhao often drank when she was young, and she even got so drunk that she didn't know the way home.

It can be seen that as time went by, Li Qingzhao's drinking capacity must have been quite good.

Li Qingzhao had two marriages in her life.

She wrote a poem called "Ugly Slave" shortly after her marriage to her first husband Zhao Mingcheng.

This poem is written in a particularly romantic style and is full of interest.

There is a line in the poem that, if you savor it carefully, is extremely erotic, which shows that Li Qingzhao was lustful.

When it comes to gambling, Li Qingzhao liked to play a gambling game called Dama, which was quite popular at the time.

This is a game where players place bets by throwing dice, and Li Qingzhao was very good at it.

Moreover, Li Qingzhao could usually win any game that had a gambling flavor, and she could even be described as being obsessed with it.

In her later years, Li Qingzhao wrote a poem called "Dama Fu", which earned her the reputation of being a gambler.

In fact, whether it is love of wine, gambling or lust, when these words are focused on Li Qingzhao.

What the world saw was the image of a brave, straightforward and free-spirited woman, who is truly worthy of being the most talented woman of all time.

"Last night it was rainy and windy, and the remaining wine was not washed away by a heavy sleep."

"I tried to ask the person behind the curtain, but I found that Begonia remained the same."

"Do you know, do you know? It should be green, fat, red and thin."

"This little poem, which can be regarded as an immortal masterpiece, was also written by Li Qingzhao shortly after her marriage."

"From this poem, I can feel Li Qingzhao's love for flowers."

"You can also discover Li Qingzhao's life in her youth, which was full of talent and interest."

"The moon waxes and wanes, and people have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions."

"No one can predict the ups and downs of life, and the ups and downs of fate are also truly reflected in Li Qingzhao, the most talented woman in history."

"When Li Qingzhao was 44 years old, it became a turning point in her life."

"This year, the Jingkang Incident occurred in the Song Dynasty."

"The Jin army marched south, and the two emperors were captured."

"King Kang Zhao Gou fled south and proclaimed himself emperor in Yingtianfu, known in history as Emperor Gaozong of Song. The Song Dynasty transitioned from the Northern Song Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty."

"This year, a major change also happened in Li Qingzhao's husband's family."

"Zhao Mingcheng's mother passed away quietly in Jiangning, and Li Qingzhao rushed to Jiangning with her husband Zhao Mingcheng to attend the funeral."

"Soon after he dealt with his mother's funeral, Zhao Mingcheng was appointed by the court as the prefect of Jiangning."

"Because the Jin army invaded Jiangning, Zhao Mingcheng abandoned the city and fled under the Southern Song court's policy of compromise and peace rather than resistance."

"The outspoken Li Qingzhao was very dissatisfied with the court's refusal to advocate war, showing the heroic spirit of a woman who is no less than a man."

"She urged her husband Zhao Mingcheng to stay and defend Jiangning together with the common people."

"But the weak husband Zhao Mingcheng did not obey, and instead used the imperial decree to force Li Qingzhao to take him to Huzhou, which caused a rift between the couple."

"Passing by the Wujiang River where Xiang Yu committed suicide, Li Qingzhao, feeling sad and disappointed, wrote the famous "Summer Quatrains" based on the scenery."

"You will be a hero in life, and you will be a hero in death."

"To this day I miss Xiang Yu and refuse to cross the Yangtze River."

"It is a sharp satire on the cowardly officials in the Southern Song court, including her husband Zhao Mingcheng."

"Unfortunately, Zhao Mingcheng fell ill and died on his way to take up his post as governor of Huzhou."

"Li Qingzhao was deeply saddened by Zhao Mingcheng's unexpected death and wrote a loving memorial for her husband."

"After personally burying Zhao Mingcheng, Li Qingzhao fell seriously ill."

"After recovering from her illness, the brave and strong Li Qingzhao decided to take her husband's collection and travel to other places to make a living."

"At first, Li Qingzhao planned to seek refuge with Zhao Mingcheng's brother-in-law, who was the vice minister of the Ministry of War."

"However, the Jin people soon captured Hongzhou and Li Qingzhao could no longer go to Hongzhou, so she followed the emperor to eastern Zhejiang."

"But the situation was turbulent at that time, and the precarious court had dismissed all officials."

"Finally, Li Qingzhao decided to go south alone to live in Hangzhou, where she still had many relatives and friends."

"However, after several years of wandering, most of the collections that Li Qingzhao brought with her were lost along the way."

"When she arrived in Hangzhou in 48 AD, at the age of 1132, she was almost at a loss."

Cao Xueqin: If you were young, you didn't understand Li Qingzhao, and if you understood her, you would be heartbroken.

Li Qingzhao spent half of her life wandering.

Li Qingzhao's life can be summarized in eight words.

Half of my life is prosperous, and half of my life is desolate.

In the second half of her life, Li Qingzhao experienced the decline of her family, the breakdown of her marital relationship, and the destruction of her country.

The countless hardships in the world created the melancholy and sadness in her poems. She crushed all the sadness and frustration in her life into her poems.

When you understand the deep meaning of these poems, you can find resonance in frustration and loneliness, pain and desolation.

With the arrangement of her family, Li Qingzhao married Zhao Mingcheng, a man of equal social status.

After marriage, Li Qingzhao discovered that they unexpectedly had similar interests.

So during the time they spent together thereafter, the two were in harmony and very loving.

Later, Zhao Mingcheng often went to other places to study for his official career, and Li Qingzhao missed her husband deeply in her boudoir.

So on the day of the Double Ninth Festival, Li Qingzhao sent her husband a poem "Drunk in the Flower Shades".

The thin fog and thick clouds make the day long and sad, and the fragrant agarwood melts the golden beast.

On the Double Ninth Festival, the jade pillow gauze kitchen, the coolness is beginning in the middle of the night.

After Dongli put the wine at dusk, there was a dark fragrance.

There is no way of ecstasy, the wind is westerly, and people are thinner than Huang Hua.

Everyone who is deeply in love will deeply understand the bone-eating feeling of longing.

This poem by Li Qingzhao expresses a woman's lovesickness in a very straightforward way.

The poem is short but the feelings are deep. After reading this poem, Zhao Mingcheng wished he could grow wings and fly to Li Qingzhao's side immediately.

However, the world is always cruel. Even the sweetest relationship will turn into a mess amidst trivial matters.

In the seventh year of their marriage, Li Qingzhao's father was framed and demoted, and the Li family declined overnight.

The Zhao family, fearing being implicated, not only refused to help the Li family, but also forced Zhao Mingcheng to divorce Li Qingzhao.

Although Zhao Mingcheng did not do such a heartless thing, Li Qingzhao was also heartbroken by the Zhao family's actions and took the initiative to move back to her parents' home.

Zhao Mingcheng did not try to keep her, and their relationship gradually became cold and distant.

Later, when the Jin army marched south, Zhao Mingcheng, as a prefect who was guarding the city, was so weak that he abandoned the city and fled.

After Li Qingzhao learned about this, she was extremely disappointed with Zhao Mingcheng and wrote a poem "Summer Quatrain" in anger.

Life is a master, and death is a ghost.

So far, Xiang Xiangyu refused to cross Jiangdong.

Zhao Mingcheng also regretted his cowardice. After reading this poem, he felt extremely ashamed and died of depression soon after.

How many people who love each other have loved each other to death.

But as time went by, they found themselves no longer on the same page and were fed up with each other.

But even if the result is like this, we should not deny the beauty of all encounters.

After all, no one can stand at the beginning of a relationship and predict the final outcome.

Cherishing every day together and not letting each other down is the greatest respect for a relationship.

"At this time, a middle-aged man named Zhang Ruzhou, who was serving as the right minister of Hangzhou, entered Li Qingzhao's life."

"Li Qingzhao was deeply moved by Zhang Ruzhou's enthusiasm and his caring for her."

"After Zhang Ruzhou confessed his love to her many times, her heart softened and she felt that she had someone to rely on, so she married Zhang Ruzhou again."

"But after marrying Zhang Ruzhou, I found out that he only came for the collection."

"When Zhang Ruzhou discovered that there were not many of Li Qingzhao's collections left, he began to verbally abuse her and began domestic violence."

"Li Qingzhao began to regret her own failure to judge people. After seeing Zhang Ruzhou's bad behavior of bribing officials, she decided to report Zhang Ruzhou and divorce him even if she would rather go to jail."

"Fortunately, with the help of her relatives and friends, Li Qingzhao was released from prison after spending a few days in jail and successfully divorced Zhang Ruzhou."

"After Li Qingzhao divorced Zhang Ruzhou, she did not become depressed."

"She decided to learn from her mistakes and bravely pick herself up."

"Don't let these pains weigh you down. You must be self-reliant and strong for the rest of your life, and live your best life in style."

"With such a belief, Li Qingzhao lived a peaceful and far-reaching life in her later years."

"On the one hand, she still paid attention to state affairs and continued to collect and compile the unfinished book "Jinshilu" by Zhao Mingcheng."

"On the other hand, Li Qingzhao changed her past elegant style of poetry."

"He created a number of poems that kept pace with the times and became the master of the graceful poetry school of the Southern Song Dynasty."

"Looking and searching, deserted and miserable."

"It's most difficult to breathe when it's warm and then cold."

"Three cups and two glasses of light wine, how can they resist the strong wind at night?"

"The wild geese are passing by. I am sad, but we are old acquaintances."

"The ground is full of yellow flowers, they are haggard and damaged. Who is worthy of picking them now?"

"How can it get dark so quickly when I am alone by the window?"

"The parasol tree is accompanied by drizzle, which drips drop by drop until dusk."

"This time, how can I say "sorrow"?

"The poem 'Sheng Sheng Man' written by Li Qingzhao in her later years begins with 14 repeated words to express her sad mood."

"He then sketched the late autumn scenes of piled yellow flowers and drizzling rain on the parasol trees, expressing his lonely and depressed state after the fall of his country and his family with every word and tear."

"In her old age, Li Qingzhao wrote Wulingchun."

"The wind has stopped, the dust has settled, the flowers have withered, and I am tired of combing my hair at night."

"Things are people, but things don't matter. If you want to speak, tears will flow first."

"I heard that Shuangxi is still beautiful in spring, so I plan to go boating there."

"I am afraid that the small boat in the two streams cannot carry my sorrow."

"In this poem, Li Qingzhao expresses her sonorous views very clearly."

"As long as you have loved in life, no matter how unpredictable the experience is, you will have no regrets. Why fear the sorrow that cannot be carried?"

"Li Qingzhao, the greatest female poet of all time, lived the most sincere life in her 73 years of ups and downs."

“No matter what stage of life she is in, she lives authentically and spontaneously.”

“Even in the face of adversity in his later years, he still ran firmly on his most peaceful path in life and became the most beautiful version of himself.”

Wu Cheng'en: No matter how cruel the fate was, Li Qingzhao never lost the pride and strength of a peerless talent.

Li Qingzhao was so bright and beautiful when she was young.

Her favorite things to do were drinking, writing lyrics, and boating.

She happily rowed her boat to the deep lotus flowers, and when she returned at dusk, she startled a group of gulls and herons.

However, after middle age, Li Qingzhao no longer had such a state of mind.

Her friends invited her to go out for a trip, but she only lamented that those small boats could not carry her many sorrows.

The wind is living in the dust and the fragrant flowers are exhausted, and I comb my hair day and night.

Things are people and nothing is done, and tears shed first.

It is said that Sungai Spring is still good, and it is also planned to go boating.

I'm afraid that the boat in Shuangxi cannot carry many sorrows.

The damage that the world does to a person is far more profound than the damage caused by time.

Although there was already a rift in the relationship between Li Qingzhao and Zhao Mingcheng before his death.

But for someone who has loved deeply, accepting the death of a loved one is always a heart-wrenching thing.

So after Zhao Mingcheng passed away, Li Qingzhao no longer had the heart of a girl.

Instead, there is sadness day after day.

It was also at that time that the Jin army marched south and chaos broke out in the Central Plains.

As a woman, Li Qingzhao had to wander around with the bronze and stone cultural relics during the war. One can imagine how difficult her life was.

Later, when Li Qingzhao traveled all the way to Jinhua, her life had reached its end.

She has no relatives or friends around her.

Although Jinhua had beautiful scenery, she was too worried to appreciate it.

The sadness of the world can really kill all of a person's interest.

However, even in such a difficult situation, Li Qingzhao still lived on strongly.

With such a weak body, he withstood all the wind and rain.

At this time, another man named Zhang Ruzhou broke into her life.

But Zhang Ruzhou's appearance was not to save Li Qingzhao, but because he was impressed by Li Qingzhao's talent and cultural relics.

After Zhang Ruzhou used sweet words to trick Li Qingzhao into marrying him, his true colors were revealed.

He questioned Li Qingzhao every day about the whereabouts of the cultural relics and sometimes even abused her.

How could a proud person like Li Qingzhao endure such humiliation?

Even though a woman who filed for divorce would have to go to jail for several years at the time, Li Qingzhao did not hesitate to sue Zhang Ruzhou in court.

In the end, Li Qingzhao was alone again.

This miserable marriage experience also made Li Qingzhao miss Zhao Mingcheng even more.

On countless sleepless nights, Li Qingzhao recalled the past in her mind.

But the more she touched the past, the lonelier Li Qingzhao's heart became.

It was autumn again, and Li Qingzhao drank bitter wine alone and wrote a poem "Sheng Sheng Man".

The very beginning of the poem is cold, desolate, sad and miserable.

Li Qingzhao’s loneliness can be imagined. Loneliness is the darkness that everyone must go through in life.

But during this period of time when no one cared about her, Li Qingzhao always endured the hardship alone in silence.

In the end, she put all her loneliness into writing, and wrote many lyrics and songs that have been passed down through the ages, pushing her life to a new height. (End of this chapter)
