Although Qin Guan was full of talent, his path to the imperial examination was extremely unsmooth.
In 1081, with the encouragement of his teacher Su Shi, Qin Guan took the exam again.
The provincial test is on the list, but the test is lost in The Sun Mountain.
Qin Guan was annoyed in his heart, idly living in Gaoyou, sending love to the landscape, and writing poems, "Liu Wai painted the building alone, twisted the flowers and branches by the railing hand, and put the flowers speechlessly to the oblique, who knows this hatred? ”
Later, under the enlightenment of Su Shi, Qin Guan, who was almost confused, decided to put down his body and prepare to submit a book and another examination.
In 1085, Qin Guan, who had been defeated many times, was finally appointed professor of Caizhou in the Spring Festival of the Rebbe.
Three years later, the imperial court opened the examination system. Qin Guan was also eager to try. But what he did not expect was that he had fallen victim to the party struggle.
At that time, in the Northern Song Dynasty, in addition to the "old and new party struggles", there was also the "Luoshu party struggle". The leader of the "Luo Party" was Cheng Yi, and the leader of the "Shu Party" was his teacher Su Shi. Under the exclusion of the "Luo Party", Qin Guan did not win the gold list in this examination.
Two years later, he returned to Beijing and served as the secretary of the provincial orthography. But within a month, things took another turn for the worse, and he was impeached for "misconduct and debauchery" and asked to be removed from office.
Qin Guan had a hard time speaking, so he simply wrote a letter "Resignation at your own request."
Compared with Su Shi, Huang Tingjian and others who were also degraded, Qin Guan's sensitivity made him suffer more than these teachers and friends, and his words were full of sorrow and hatred, such as this song "Minus Magnolia":
The end of the world is old hate, alone and desolate people do not ask. To see the ileum, cut off the small incense of the golden furnace. The moth grows long, and the spring breeze does not blow. Trapped in the dangerous building, too much Feihong character worry.
Minus magnolia, is the name of the word brand. This tune subtracts three words from the upper and lower sentences of "Stealing The Magnolia Flower", hence the name.
The film writes that the woman is desolate and depressed alone:
The end of the world is old hate, alone and desolate people do not ask.
The old hatred across the world is lingering, and the bleak and lonely life is not questioned.
"The end of the world" is extremely far away; "old hatred" can be seen for a long time. The distance and the length of time make people feel desolate. After the breakup, they are separated from each other, no one speaks to each other, the communication is not clear, it is difficult to send love, and the desire to see each other is even stronger.
To see the ileum, cut off the small incense of the golden furnace.
To know how I am sad, like the incense burned out in a golden furnace.
Zhuàn incense, metaphorically coiled incense and swirling cigarettes. In the extreme of boredom and sorrow, the woman had to burn incense for a few moments to spend time, the pain in her heart, the ileum turned a hundred times, just like this shape of the coil of incense.
"An inch of acacia and an inch of ash", the incense is broken, the melancholy is not dispersed, the soft intestines are broken, and the woman's wish is finally as illusory as smoke.
The next film writes about the suffering of women's lovesickness from all seasons of the year:
The moth grows long, and the spring breeze does not blow.
The long eyebrows are always locked, and they do not stretch even if the spring breeze blows.
Dai moth, refers to the eyebrows. From winter to spring, because it is difficult to eliminate hatred, it is difficult to show sorrow, even if spring comes, the "east wind" blows vigorously, it cannot make it stretch, which shows the depth of sorrow.
Trapped in the dangerous building, too much Feihong character worry.
Sleepily leaning against the railing of the tall building, looking at the high-flying goose line, the words are all sad.
From summer to autumn, silently guarding the tall buildings, watching groups of geese disappear into the distant sky, longing for the arrival of the distant jinshu. However, even if you lean on the dangerous building, it is still the end of the world and the hate, and the "human" character composed of the far away Feihong is actually a "sad" word in the heart of the departed person!
This poem is sad and low, euphemistic, soft and intestinal, vivid and touching, and it is indeed a wonderful work in Qin Guan's love words.
