One
The window is full of bright moon and the curtain is full of frost, and the bed is left by the cold light.
In the frosty moon night of Yanzilou, autumn is only for one person.
Second
Tan fainted Luo's shirt color like smoke, a few times after wanting to linger.
Since I have not danced the neon clothes song, I have been stacked in an empty box for eleven years.
Third
This spring, a visitor from Luoyang returned to Shangshu's tomb.
It is said that the white poplar can be used as a pillar, and the red powder can not become ashes.
"Three Poems of Yanzilou" Tang: Bai Juyi
In the famous Swallow Tower (Note 1) in the northwest corner of Pengcheng City, Xuzhou, King Lu Shipu slowly opened his eyes in the faint sound of spring thunder. And in the room warmed by the charcoal fire, in the wide cloud bed beside him, on the carpet and up and down the stairs, many women with disheveled clothes fell down unexpectedly. This is the product of his allusions about King Qi and Zhao, who were famous in the reign of Chaotianbao, who used Ji concubine as "Huailu" and "Meat Screen".
As a traditional handsome man who rushed to the top in troubled times, he slowly and thoroughly looked away in these days of siege; since he was the leader of this town, many things could no longer help him or talk about it. It is impossible to go back. Therefore, the Zhu brothers of the Taining Army were destroyed and also destroyed, and Wang Jingwu of the Pinglu Army had no time to come to the rescue.
At least he still has this well-stocked city and the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the inner and outer walls; so he should indulge in banquets and have fun, and if he should reward the soldiers, he would not hesitate to give generously. Anyway, he Every day I persist in Pengcheng, Xuzhou, is an extra day of enjoyment and use. As for the possibilities in the future, they are no longer within his consideration.
Therefore, during this period of time, he even ordered a wealthy and wealthy home in the city when he was free. He chose to choose from his wife and concubines and took in many concubines, and then changed his tricks every day for fun. . However, this time, in the sound of spring thunder, there were no personal servants and maids carrying gold and silver utensils, and they came up to ask for instructions and greetings in every possible way;
There was only a little breeze that faintly penetrated into the room, while constantly blowing the curtains and corners of the steps of later generations, it also gave Shipu, who was sweating heavily and dried on his body, brought a trace of coolness. This also made Shi Pu a little bit annoyed. He had to soak in a Chi Lan Tang in time every time he stayed overnight to be comfortable;
Therefore, even in the coldest days of winter, there are people who specialize in burning the fire to maintain the supply of hot soup pool anytime, anywhere. The last batch of servants who were delayed and could not use Tangchi immediately had been ordered to be thrown into the ice cave and drowned. It’s not long before the lessons of the past have passed, and shouldn’t it be slack and ruined
However, at the next moment, Shi Pu was suddenly a little alert and awakened. After all, he was not from the original court sent by the court, but from a general of the local dental school. How can it be possible to have no sense and defense against this kind of trick of isolating the inside and outside and gaining command in the air? Therefore, as a precautionary measure or a measure to prevent gradual failure.
The daily guards in charge of the inner lodge and the obedience are all from the town’s tooth army, the yaqian soldiers, and the inner straight capital. They are divided into five groups of alternate guards; and always make sure that there are two groups of guards with different backgrounds nearby. This is a means of mutual inspection, supervision, and checks and balances; and the place where he lives at night is also selected from many courtyards and gardens with a chain of teeth.
Even the servant servant and concubine Ji who served were temporarily summoned by others, instead of leaving or paying back without permission until the sound of dawn, but those who dare to commit crimes should be killed without pardon, so as not to expose the place where he stayed overnight. But this time the reaction from the outside made him smell some unknown signs and signs; then Shipu, who put on a thick brocade robe, boarded the pavilion barefoot and opened the window to look out.
I saw that the huge courtyard was already empty and dead, and in the brightly lit left and right side chambers and penthouses, the many servants and guards who were waiting and on duty while warming the fire were also gone. Only a mess of footprints trampled Can Xue on the ground. But between the frosted clean surface of the wall, the reflection of suspected swordsman and armor was reflected.
At this point, Shi Pu couldn't help taking a deep breath, and without hesitation, he turned his head and came to the back of this pavilion. Then he saw the faint fire light swaying and flickering behind the courtyard wall, as well as the armor and clothing. The nicks between the swordsmen and soldiers rubbing against each other. In the end, he could only sigh heavily and turn back, re-dressing neatly before opening the door to the bitter chill.
And outside the courtyard, there were already rows of armored soldiers with knives, spears, and crossbows. They were only in dress, dress, and flags, but they were obviously from the united soldiers and door guards in charge of the outer borders. The battalion; as for the tooth soldiers, yaqian soldiers, and Neizhi capital that he had maintained with generous treatment and rich rewards, they disappeared for a while.
Then, among the rebel generals standing in the front row, he saw that since the mutiny, he had been ordered to kill the former Jieddu envoy who was staying in the Dapeng Pavilion and was preparing to return to Beijing since the mutiny; he was banned afterwards. When he was in custody, he only waited for the court to question him before handing it over, so that Chen Fan, the former deputy and righteous brother of the scapegoat, looked at himself with a straight look.
He also saw that he was one of the few in the Wuning Army, but because he was a bit good-hearted and popular in the army, he was assigned to break out and contact the guards and united soldiers of the local states and counties with the seal. , Thinking that he attacked the army road and the back road of the besieged thief, but did not know when he returned to the city, the front army forward Liu Zhijun, who was illuminated by the lights, had an unpredictable face.
In addition, there were people who followed him to siege and expel the handsome dental school, but he was promoted and secretly surrendered after the incident. He appointed soldiers and horses, guards, and patrols from other states. Today, the only remaining people such as Zhang Xiong, Feng Hongduo, and He Hu , But appeared in the North Garden where the Swallow Tower is located in the same clothes.
And while seeing these faces, it also means that Shipu has lost the most basic control of the situation in the city, or that he did not know when he was isolated from the inside and outside of the news, and he still didn't know it. This made him sigh secretly, he has been in charge of the power and wealth for nearly eight years, is it about to end here today
Then, Shi Pu once again saw the rich family from this city, but he was regarded as a confidant and favored by Zhang Yun, the magnificent inner direct commander Zhang Yun. It was obvious that this was also the transfer of the inner correspondent of his side guard, which made him The culprit behind the heavy siege; he still couldn't help but questioned in an agitated voice:
"Following the previous, why are you? But is a certain family not kind enough to you?"
"Naturally, I was kind enough to treat me at the festival, so kind! So that my brother, sister-in-law, and aunt were robbed into the back house in the street, regardless of life or death?"
However, Zhang Yun, who was wearing a drape, stepped forward without hesitation, and rebuked in a bit of grief and angrily:
"You! Why didn't you say it earlier?..."
Hearing this, Shi Pu couldn't help but be surprised:
Then I vaguely remembered that when I was staying overnight, I seemed to have met a few women who resisted You Lie. They said something excitedly, but they drank a lot and didn’t have the patience to listen to her, so they didn’t hesitate to make a heavy blow. There was not much anger from the nose bleeding; then, the remaining crying women made his heart tired, and they were all taken to fill the ice holes.
The next moment, Shi Pu couldn't help but open his mouth, and wanted to say something to slow his cheeks and delay time, when he saw the former army forward Liu Zhijun stepping forward and shouting:
"This is the end of the matter, it's useless to say more... Please also be handsome to make me a way out!"
"what do you mean!"
In the next moment, Shi Pu asked with a bit of horror: He thought this was just a change from a handsome man in a crisis. Before the new coach completely masters the situation, there may be a way for the lower ranks to survive; but if it is in these cities If the subordinates had a heart to find out the Kaicheng to vote for the enemy, then he would undoubtedly die of the commander who bears the brunt.
"That's what it means!"
However, Liu Zhijun strode forward without hesitation:
"I'm afraid I don't know at the festival. Wang Jingwu has already given the leader, and the Pinglu army, which the town relied on as a foreign aid, is no longer where it is; I can borrow the first level of the handsome..."
At the next moment, Shi Pu wanted to hiss and shout something, but he was fired by dozens of oncoming crossbow machines and turned into a dense arbor upside down. Soon after, the south gate and the west gate of Pengcheng, Xuzhou, were opened from the inside out one after another, welcoming in the Taiping army who was waiting outside the city; it became the sound of fighting gradually resounding in the city.
When the sky was completely shining again, it was clear after the snow again. The last wave of Xuzhou Dental Army and Yaqian soldiers guarding the Yacheng Ningyu stubbornly saw Shipu's own head level pierced on the tip of the flagpole in the last wave. In the uproar of crying and wailing, the morale was lost and the birds and beasts dispersed.
Therefore, when the sun appeared at noon in the middle of the sky, the Taiping Army, which had occupied the important points of the internal and external sects, also began to purge and apprehend those Wuning troops who had discarded their weapons, took off their robes, and fled into the city’s homes , Remnants. At the same time, the news of the destruction of the last established resistance force in the land of Henan also flew towards Luoyang, the eastern capital, with the victory.
Note 1: Xuzhou Yanzi Tower was one of the five famous buildings at that time. It originated from the first year of Tang Zhen, when Zhang Yan (the son of Zhang Jianfeng), a great minister of the imperial court, was guarding Xuzhou when he was a concubine Guan Panpan. A specially built small building is named because of its cornices and horns, which resemble flying swallows, and many swallows from the south live here every spring.
Guan Panpan's singing voice is round and clear, and the poet Zhang Zhongsu calls it "song dust", saying that when she sings, the tone is ups and downs, crisp and agitated, and its potential can stop the clouds on the horizon and impact the darkness on the carved beams. dust. After Zhang Yin's death, she was determined not to marry and spent the rest of her life in Yanzilou. Therefore, there are many poems written by literati in the past.
Because Guan Panpan, as a generation of talented women, has a lot of contemporary literati and celebrities, singing and composing more than 300 poems, it was compiled into "The Collection of Swallows House", and he is famous in the world. As a result, in the Southern Song Dynasty, when the ethics education became more and more profound, the folklore and story of "Bai Juyi wrote poems and forced Guan Panpan to die" evolved.
