    [1] "A Gift to Xue Tao" Poem by Yuan Zhen

    ? Jinjiang Creamy Moth Eyebrow Show,

    ?Imagination of Wen Jun and Xue Tao;

    Words cleverly steal the tongue of a parrot,

    Articles are divided into phoenix hair.

    ? One after another, the guests stopped writing more,

    Every public official wants a dream sword;

    Farewell to lovesickness across the smoke and water,

    The calamus flowers are as high as the clouds.

    Qing Wan asked: "So, what happened to Xue Tao and Yuan Zhen in the end?"

    Yougan said: "Break it!"

    "Break?"

    "Actually, there is no love in the world. If you insist on saying that there is, it is only a momentary beauty.

    The word love sounds beautiful; it's sweet when you say it; and you yearn for it when you think about it.  But if two people really come together, they are all destroyed by the trivial things of life How can anyone be so kind to you like me!  "

    Qing Wan pinched her friend and asked, "What is it that blocked their love?"

    "Maybe it's the eleven-year age difference between the two, or Xue Tao's musical background."

    "What's wrong with age, what's the music, for love, it's not a problem!"

    "This is what you little girls think, men don't think so. Not only will Xue Tao's music not help Yuan Zhen's career, but it will become an obstacle on his way to promotion. Therefore, when Yuan Zhen was recalled to the court, he did not think so.  Did not bring Xue Tao."

    "and after?"

    "Later, I only sent her a letter "A Gift to Xue Tao", leaving behind a talented Xue Xue who was waiting for her sweetheart to take care of her with tears in her eyes."

    "What about later?"

    "Later, Xue Tao took off his red pomegranate skirt and put on a gray Taoist robe."

    "Have you become a Taoist priest?"

    "Yes, only lonely teardrops can annihilate the fireworks of love. Xue Tao's life has also changed from blazing to indifferent. The world has lost a graceful and beautiful lady, and beside Huanhua River, there has been a monk who doesn't care about the noise.  .”

    Qing Wan was sad: "So, Yuan Zhen not only hurt his cousin, but also hurt such a beautiful and talented woman."

    "Actually, it was his wife Wei Cong who hurt the most."

    "Why her?"

    "You think, when Yuan Zhen was in Chengdu and Xue Taoshan made an oath, Wei Cong was still in Chang'an to take care of the housework for him and raise a few young children You said, a young miss Jiao became a yellow-faced woman early on for her husband  "

    "After becoming a yellow-faced woman, Yuan Zhen abandoned her?"

    "Not really. Judging from the fact that Wei Cong married Yuan Zhen for seven years and gave birth to him five children, Yuan Zhen still loves his wife very much."

    Qing Wan asked in surprise: "Five children born in seven years?"

    "Yeah, if you don't love, why would you have so many births! Putting aside Yuan Zhen's more than a year in Chengdu, he basically gave birth to one for Yuan Zhen every year. With such an intensive birth, it is estimated that Wei Cong also suffered from the root cause of his illness."  , passed away at the age of 27."

    [2] "Three Poems of Lisi" Yuan Zhen. Poem

    The mountain spring flows loosely around the steps,

    Wanshu Peach Blossom Ying Xiaolou;

    Leisurely reading Daoist books before getting up,

    Looking at combing hair under the crystal curtain.

    ? Red Luo presses on and keeps up with the times,

    It's auspicious to have flower yarn and tender koji dust.

    First of all, don't think the material is weak,

    Some things are the most pleasant.

    Ordinarily a hundred kinds of flowers bloom together,

    Partial picking of pear blossoms and white people;

    Today there are two or three trees in Jiangtou,

    Poor and Ye Du Canchun.

    Yougan continued to tell:

    After Wei Cong died, Yuan Zhen was distraught.  I don't know if I really miss it, or if I am performing it for others.  He often drank with his friends to relieve his worries, and when he was drunk, he would call his wife's name.  In a trance, I thought Webster was still alive by his side.

    I saw him uttering magically, "The mountain spring flows slowly around the street, and the small building is shaded by thousands of trees and peach blossoms. I was reading Taoist books leisurely upstairs, and I was lazy. I was separated by the crystal bead curtain.  I saw you putting on makeup in front of the dressing table" That expression was really vivid, "You always like to press [a weaving craft] red silk, chasing fashionable and novel patterns; embroider Qin Ji [a weaving craft] yourself  It has a pattern similar to a parrot bird], dyed with a tender color like wine koji. You say, don’t think the material of the fabric is too thin first, the silk with a little warp and weft is the most pleasant"

    As long as it is something used by his wife or clothes given to his servants, Yuan Zhen will irritate himself when he sees it, "At that time, a hundred flowers were blooming, but I picked a white pear flower and gave it to you. Your skin is as white as it is.??Lake Spring!  It seems that the romantic affair between Yuan Zhen and Liu Caichun has already been known to everyone, and it has reached the point where they can catch everything.

    How could Zhou Jichong, Liu Caichun's husband, be unaware of this "blatantly smuggled love" that was in full swing.  Seeing that his beloved wife Lai stayed in Shaoxing and continued to play with Yuan Zhen behind his back, Zhou Jichong was naturally very anxious, but there was nothing he could do.

    After hearing about this, Yuan Zhen, who is rich and powerful, sent someone to send a sum of money to Zhou Jichong, which can be regarded as buying off Liu Caichun's youth in the past few years.

    Seven years later, Yuan Zhen left Zhejiang East when he was still high. Moreover, in the Tang Dynasty, which paid attention to the gentry family, this "pair of families[1]" was also an indispensable standard for marriage.  You can play, but you definitely can't become the family members of the prime minister Yuan Zhen who later became a noble minister.  This dewy relationship can only end without a problem, and there is no choice.

    As the saying goes: don't care about forever, only care about once owned.

    After Liu Caichun was abandoned, she realized that in her 30s, she would have no future; besides, she, who "was too difficult to find water in the sea", could never find anyone better than Yuan Zhen; of course, she had no face to find her ex-husband  and daughter Zhou Dehua.

    Liu Caichun did not adopt Xue Tao's way of choosing to become a monk, but jumped into the river in grief and indignation. She was only 32 years old that year.

    Notes

    [1] Well matched

    Ancient families paid special attention to the gate of the house, what kind of gatehouse was built by what kind of family.

    The imperial court also made clear regulations on the gates of official mansions: three rooms and five frames at the main entrance of the first and second ranks, three rooms and three frames at the main gates of the third to fifth ranks, and three rooms and three frames at the main entrances of the sixth to ninth ranks.

    "Mendang" is a pair of opposite, flat stone piers or stone drums placed at the door, including drum-holding stones and ordinary door pillow stones (because the sound of the drums is magnificent and majestic, as severe as thunder, people think it can  To avoid ghosts and praise).

    Together with the door hairpin, threshold, door leaf and door frame, the door should produce a simple and elegant overall artistic aesthetic feeling, which is a symbol of auspiciousness, blessing and avoiding evil.  And reflect each other with the building, harmonious and unified, let the gate play the finishing touch.

    The inner part of the door pillow stone supports the gate, and the outer part is often carved with bird and animal flower decorations, also known as drum-holding stone.  Baogu stone has two shapes, square and round.  The carvings of the door are quite exquisite. The most common pattern on the sides of the round drum is the corner lotus. The exquisite ones can be made into unicorns lying on pine trees, rhinoceros looking at the moon, and butterflies entering Lanshan.

    In front of the gates of the royal family or the government, lion-shaped drum stones are often used:

    The high-level military officers use the drum-shaped "lion holding the drum stone", the low-level military officers use the drum-shaped "beast head holding the drum stone";  The big rich use box-shaped "drum-holding stones without carvings";

    "House pairs" are brick and wood carvings placed on the lintel or on both sides of the lintel.  The wooden "hut pair" is generally short cylindrical, each about one foot long, parallel to the ground, and perpendicular to the lintel; while the door pair carved with blue bricks is located on both sides of the lintel, and most of them are engraved with Yirui animals and rare birds.  themed pattern.  The pure cylindrical "hudui" is for civil officials, and the hexagonal square column "hudui" is for military officials.

    When there is a festival at home, the "household pair" can hang lanterns.  Household pairs take even numbers, some have two pairs, and some have four pairs.  The number of "household pairs" is directly proportional to the size of the official rank: there can be six for the first to fifth ranks, four for the sixth to seventh ranks, and only two for the following ones. Ordinary large families can also have two "household pairs"  .

    A house with a "gate" in front of the gate must have a "house pair", so "gate" and "house pair" are often called together.

    In addition to the decoration of the town house, the "door door" and "house pair" are also important symbols of the identity, status, and family background of the owner of the house.  Later, "the right family" gradually evolved into an idiom in social concepts to measure the conditions for marriage between a man and a woman.  Being well-connected means that people with similar backgrounds can only get along with each other or get married if they have a similar family background.

    The ancients said that "the right family is right" has its rationality.

    The family's lifestyle and cultural background are inherited or evolved from generation to generation, and will not change easily even if the surrounding environment changes.  The concept of marriage as a good match was indeed in line with the reality of the society at that time.  But the secular notion of a right family also separates true love forever.  ?
