The videos I watched became popular in ancient times

In a sense, the core of poetry lies in the fact that it possesses a spiritual world of infinite depth and breadth.

It is with their unique spiritual insights that poets weave together one touching masterpiece after another.

Du Fu lamented his lonely life and wrote "I am often a guest in a vast land in the sad autumn, and I am alone on the stage after suffering from many illnesses for a hundred years."

Su Shi lamented the brevity of life and wrote: "Life is like a dream; I will pour a cup of wine to the moon on the river."

Due to the different circumstances of different poets, the spiritual insights and aesthetic feelings that can be expressed in poetry are also different.

“People need gold to make friends, without enough gold the friendship will not be deep.”

"Even if we are promised to each other temporarily, we will eventually leave each other."

"As the old saying goes, money makes the world go round."

"In real life, people often interact with each other based on money."

"To put it simply, it is about interests and mutual benefit."

“Although such pure interactions are rare, we cannot ignore those interactions that have nothing to do with money and are purely based on emotion and friendship.”

“Such exchanges are like clear springs. Although they seem rare in the noisy world, their existence brings endless warmth and strength to life.”

“True friendship does not change because of the amount of money. It exists between people who understand, support and respect each other.”

“When you encounter difficulties in life, it is these friends who are by your side, giving you the most sincere care and help.”

“They don’t ask for anything in return, just out of deep friendship and concern.”

"It should also be noted that money is not the only criterion for measuring a person's value."

“In this world, there are many people who do not have abundant material wealth, but have abundant spiritual wealth.”

"They have used their wisdom and talents to bring many good changes to the world."

“Although their lives are not adorned with money, they are made better by their existence.”

"So, we can't just use money as a bond to measure and choose friends. We should cherish those who have pure friendship and deep emotions with us."

"They are the most precious wealth in life and the most important support in life."

“If you have such friends, then cherish these friendships and let them shine even brighter in your life.”

"It's a pity that the Tang Dynasty poet Zhang Wei didn't meet such a friend after going through all kinds of hardships."

"He was inspired to write this poem, "Inscribed on the Wall of Chang'an," to express his feelings of seeing through the warmth and coldness of human nature."

"Zhang Wei studied in Songshan when he was young and was very talented."

"So he was ambitious to stand out and achieve something, and he often said that he wanted to be a nobleman or a general in the future."

"In the second year of Tianbao, he passed the imperial examination and became a Jinshi. At the age of 24, he served in the frontier army for ten years and made great contributions."

"Be upright and don't be afraid of the strong."

"It was because of this that I offended my superiors and was exiled to Jimen."

"Later, he was able to clear his name and was appointed Minister of Rites."

"Not long after, he was appointed as the governor of Tanzhou, but he had the arrogance and pride of an angry young man."

Su Shi: A poem written on the wall by Zhang Wei fully expresses the fickleness of the world. It is enough to see through the reality of life and keep a peaceful mind.

Zhang Wei once wrote a poem called "Early Plum Blossom", which has a subtle and natural style, with twists and turns and full of interest.

This poem became widely circulated and became his representative work.

A tree with cold plum blossoms and white jade strips stands next to the village road and the bridge over the stream.

I don't know if the water flower is the first to be launched, it is suspected that it has not been sold after the winter snow.

A tree of bright white plum blossoms looks like a jade tree from afar.

It is far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, without the noise of cars and horses, and is located beside the bridge by the stream, elegant and fragrant all by itself.

If you didn't know that it was a tree of early blooming plum blossoms, you would have thought it was snow that had not melted after the winter.

This poem is simple yet beautiful, true and natural, and tells a story in a leisurely manner.

It does not directly praise the plum blossom, but it clearly describes the early blooming of the plum blossom in the cold, as well as its elegance and purity.

Reminiscent of white snow, the plum blossoms highlight their purity and elegance.

Plum blossoms should grow in places where there are few people and are not contaminated by dust.

For example, the broken bridge outside the post station described by Lu You and the plum blossom in the ancient stream in Zhu Dunru's poem.

The more desolate and deserted, the farther away from the secular world, the deeper the valleys, the deeper the mountains, and the more secluded places with very few people.

A tree full of brilliantly blooming plum blossoms seems to have appeared out of nowhere, making people even more astonished and stunned.

All things or people that are unique and extraordinary are often introverted and low-key, as gentle and lonely as moonlight.

Zhang Wei's two ancient poems have very different styles.

One is graceful and implicit, the other describes the world and human nature.

One is for birth and the other is for entering the world.

Perhaps, as time passed, Zhang Wei later pursued worldly affairs with a detached attitude.

He stopped being cynical and slowly made peace with himself.

In the second year of Tianbao, Zhang Wei passed the imperial examination and became a Shangshulang.

In the late Tianbao period, he served in the northwest frontier, made great contributions in the army, and was promoted to the Minister of Rites.

"Because during the Tianbao period, the Tang Dynasty had already begun to decline, and the court was no longer as clean and honest as it used to be."

"With treacherous officials in power, Zhang Wei suffered a lot of injustice in the officialdom."

"So during this period, when I was staying in Chang'an, I was depressed and wrote this poem on the wall of my landlord's house."

"He is an upright person, so he naturally cannot stand those dishonest things."

"So when faced with this reality, he sees it clearly, so his mood is inevitably affected."

"This poem also indirectly reflects the various unbearable aspects of the officialdom of his time."

"He went to guard the border because he couldn't bear to see such scenes."

"Another reason is that he doesn't want to fall into the clichés of seeking profit and currying favor with the powerful."

"Since you want to keep yourself clean, then you have no choice but to be ostracized!"

"This poem also deeply depicts the cruel world and human nature where money and love can be severed."

"His mentality has been very peaceful, otherwise he would not have been able to write such profound poems."

"Indeed, the world is fickle, and it is better to see through the reality of life and keep a calm mind."

"The world is fickle and life is full of ups and downs. All of this is an inevitable reality on the road of life."

“People always play various roles on the stage of real life, sometimes laughing, sometimes crying, sometimes feeling proud, sometimes feeling lost.”

"But no matter what kind of storm you go through, you must maintain a peaceful mind."

"Because only in this way can we walk more steadily on the road of life."

"In real life, you will always encounter all kinds of people and things."

“Some people make you feel warm and caring, while others make you feel cold and distant.”

"But no matter what, we must learn to accept these people and things, because they are important elements that make up life."

“We should not lose confidence and courage because of some unfavorable things, nor should we become complacent and proud because of some good things.”

“When facing the ups and downs of life, learn to keep a peaceful mind.”

“No matter what difficulties and challenges you encounter, you must remain calm and rational, and not be swayed by your emotions.”

"At the same time, we must also learn to be grateful and cherish, cherish the people and things around us, and be grateful to those who give us help and support."

“On the road of life, you also need to learn to persevere and work hard.”

“Only through continuous efforts and struggle can one realize his dreams and goals.” “Of course, in the process of hard work, he will also encounter various setbacks and difficulties.”

Xin Qiji: Zhang Wei's two ancient poems, one is graceful and implicit, and the other fully describes the world and human nature.

When Zhang Wei, a poet of the mid-Tang Dynasty, was young and full of vigor, he was not afraid of power.

He is upright, looks down on the world, and has a somewhat aloof personality.

Zhang Wei studied hard for ten years and lived in Chang'an before he became a Jinshi. This was the time when he was around 20 years old.

The young Zhang Wei was so emotional that he wrote a poem on the wall of the host's house.

Maybe it's because he has a talent but is not appreciated, and has suffered repeated setbacks and ridicule, or maybe it's because he has suffered from the coldness of the world and the fickleness of human nature in terms of money?
The seven-character ancient poem "Inscribed on the Wall of Chang'an" is particularly unique and not at all subtle.

People in the world need gold to make friends, and gold is not too much and not deep.

Even if Ran Nuo promised for the time being, it was a leisurely journey in the end.

The words are concise but profound, shining like a pearl that illuminates one's eyelashes, and as sharp as a dagger that hits the target with one strike.

This poem is sharp, to the point, and a bit heart-wrenching, but it is very satisfying to read.

Secular people need gold as a bond to make friends with each other. If gold is not used enough, the friendship will naturally not be deep.

Even though he agreed verbally and made some temporary promises, in reality his heart was as cold as a passerby.

Money, apart from not being able to buy health and impermanence, seems to have its own magical powers.

The once prosperous Tang Dynasty was naturally no exception when it came to scheming for profit and currying favor with the powerful.

From this poem by Zhang Wei we can see the cruel world and human nature where money can break and love can break too.

Du Fu of the prosperous Tang Dynasty wrote a poem called "Song of Poor Friends", which has some similarities with Zhang Wei's poem.

Turning your hands to make clouds and rain, they are so frivolous that there is no need to count them.

Don't you see, if you pay attention to Bao when he is poor, this way is abandoned by today's people like dirt.

The phrase "turning the world upside down" comes from this poem by Du Fu, which means that everything in the world and human nature is fickle.

People's hearts change easily, flowers fall easily. Why count the frivolous ones?

The example of Guan Zhong and Bao Shu who became friends when they were poor and knew each other for life is hard to find nowadays. Perhaps people have long forgotten the sincere friendship that was as strong as mountains and flowing water.

"But as long as you can always maintain a peaceful mind and pursue your dreams unremittingly, you will surely usher in the dawn of success."

"To put it simply, the world is fickle and life is real. It is not easy to see through all of this."

"But as long as you can maintain a peaceful mind, learn to accept and face reality, and cherish and be grateful for the people and things around you."

"Persist and work hard to pursue your dreams, then you will definitely be able to find your own path in life."

"At least I won't be anxious and won't be fettered by the secular world."

"On the road of life, a peaceful state of mind is undoubtedly the most beautiful state."

"However, this state is not easily achieved. It requires constant practice and understanding."

"Because life is always full of challenges and difficulties, sometimes we are troubled by negative emotions such as stress, anxiety, fear, etc., which makes our mentality unbalanced and difficult to maintain peace."

“There will always be many unsatisfactory things in life. We cannot change the outcome of all things, but we can choose to accept them.”

“Accepting reality is not giving up, but a kind of respect and recognition for yourself and life.”

"Only in this way can we truly let go of the burden in our hearts and achieve a peaceful state of mind."

“When you encounter setbacks and difficulties, it’s easy to be controlled by negative emotions, leading to an unbalanced mentality.”

"At this time, we need to take the initiative to adjust our emotions and stay calm and rational."

"You can relax yourself and alleviate the impact of negative emotions through exercise, meditation, listening to music, etc."

“We need to maintain a grateful heart. There are many beautiful things and people in life that are worth being grateful for.”

“When gratitude is present, negative emotions tend to naturally fade away, and are replaced by a peaceful, tranquil state of mind.”

“Therefore, we need to always maintain a grateful attitude and cherish every beautiful thing around us.”

"In a word, keeping a peaceful mind is a wonderful state in life."

"By accepting reality, adjusting your emotions and maintaining a grateful attitude, you can gradually reach this state and enjoy the beauty and tranquility of life."

"Just like Zhang Wei, although he was exiled, he lived a very peaceful life."

"He likes drinking, living a simple life, and liking lakes and mountains. In fact, these are all ways for him to relieve his depression."

"As time went by, Zhang Wei later pursued worldly affairs with a detached attitude."

"He stopped being cynical and slowly made peace with himself."

"That's how I was able to have a peaceful life after exile!"

Li Qingzhao: A sad and realistic poem in Tang poetry. It has only four short lines but it touches people's hearts directly.

Although Zhang Wei became a Jinshi in the second year of Tianbao and successfully entered the official career.

But the good times did not last long. With the corruption and decline of the Tang Dynasty, the phenomenon of currying favor with the powerful and scheming for profit arose. Zhang Wei, who was proud of his high status, suffered repeated setbacks from then on.

This made him deeply realize the fickleness of the world and the warmth and coldness of human nature.

So he put his indignation into words and wrote it on a wall where he lived in Chang'an, which is this poem "Inscribed on the Wall of Chang'an".

People in the world need gold to make friends, and gold is not too much and not deep.

Even if Ran Nuo promised for the time being, it was a leisurely journey in the end.

First of all, the first two sentences say that people need gold to make friends, and without enough gold, the friendship will not be deep.

Its meaning is simple and clear, that is, what worldly people call friendship is based on the bond of gold.

If gold is not used enough, then naturally the friendship will not be deep enough.

To some extent, these two lines of poetry by Zhang Wei not only reveal the irrational phenomenon of currying favor with the powerful and seeking profit in the society at that time.

It also reveals a wrong view of friendship, measuring the affection between people by money.

From the love between Yu Boya and Zhong Ziqi for the mountains and flowing water, to the friendship between the Qin Jing and the wild man over tea, to the friendship between Li Bai and He Zhizhang over wine.

It can be seen that common hobbies such as piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine and tea can all become a medium for communicating friendship.

This is still true today.

But money and interests must never be mixed into it, otherwise it will end up hurting others and yourself.

Then, the last two lines of the poem mean that even if the promise is temporarily granted, the heart will eventually be separated.

That is, someone who makes friends with you with money, even though he greets you with a smile and makes all kinds of promises to you verbally.

But in fact, his heart is as cold as that of a passerby, and there is no friendship at all.

In fact, the poet uses vivid language to describe what hypocrisy is in these two lines of poetry.

But then again, poetry is a mirror reflecting ancient society.

Therefore, "Inscription on the Wall of Chang'an" reflects the increasingly decadent social atmosphere in the middle Tang Dynasty, and also indirectly reflects the social conditions and human nature at that time.

Therefore, for Zhang Wei, who was self-righteous, his official career was bound to encounter setbacks.

So the poet's realization that people need gold to make friends, and without enough gold, the friendship will not be deep, is so sad and helpless.

As for us today, I believe that such people also exist, so we need to keep our eyes open and make friends with all our heart.

To sum up, this seven-character quatrain was written by Zhang Wei, a poet of the Tang Dynasty.

First, he pointed out the wrong concept of making friends at that time, that is, interpersonal relationships and friendship were based on the amount of gold.

Later, the hypocritical smiles and cold-hearted hearts of this kind of people were vividly portrayed.

It can be said that the portrayal of the world is very vivid.

Finally, I hope that none of us will meet such a person, nor become such a person. (End of this chapter)
