After we read the poem "Qi'ao" in "Three Hundred Poems" Wei Feng, we may feel short of breath, especially men. .

This poem describes the wonderful feeling a good man gives people. This man has a peerless appearance, solemn manner, extraordinary bearing, talent and noble moral character. Every time I read it, I feel that I am short of words and cannot think of any other way to describe such a magnificent man.

There is a poem in the Han Dynasty Yuefu: "The accumulated stones are like jade, and the pine trees are like green. The man is unique and unique, and there is no other in the world." It can be said that the beauty of men is expressed.

Speaking of men, beauty is beautiful. If it does not touch the heart of the viewer, this beauty will lose its soul. If a man only has good looks, he is just a manly woman and has no good appearance, which is a pity.

The goodness of a man lies in his temperament, his bearing and the charm of his personality. Today, the most familiar and popular saying is: start with appearance, focus on talent, and be loyal to character.

Indeed, people's standards for beautiful men have not changed since ancient times.

Reference translation: Look at the winding Qi water bank, with green bamboo forests. A gentleman is a man who is eloquent in literature, more refined in his knowledge and more refined in his moral character. He behaves solemnly and has a broad mind, and his status is prominent and majestic. Elegance and beauty are a gentleman, which is unforgettable in people's hearts.

According to the "Preface to Mao's Poems": ""Qi'ao" is also the virtue of a beautiful military official. He has articles and can listen to his rules and advice, and can defend himself with etiquette, so he can be a minister of the Zhou Dynasty, and he is beautiful. And the writing is poetry. "

The Wu Gong in the article was Wu He of Wei State. He was born in the year of the Western Zhou Dynasty and once served as a minister of King Ping of Zhou (770-720 BC).

According to historical records, Wu He was more than 90 years old in his later years. He was still honest in politics, followed good deeds, and was generous and gentle. Therefore, he was highly respected by people. People composed this song "Qi Ao" to praise him.

The whole poem "Qi'ao" is concise, lively and catchy. If you try to recite it loudly, you will feel the fragrance on your lips and teeth. It is indescribably beautiful. In the long rhyme, a tall and beautiful green bamboo forest emerges, and a talented gentleman is walking towards you. He is majestic and graceful.

This is Wei Wugong, a good man with unparalleled splendor. "Easy to discuss, as thorough as polishing" means that his temperament is stable, elegant, gentle and noble.

The ancients said it was "cut" to treat bones, "study" to treat ivory, "carve" to treat jade, and "grind" to treat stone. A man's temperament and character are as strong as bone and as strong as ivory. Noble, as smooth as jade, as firm as stone.

What's more, this man's demeanor is "se Xi Xi Xi", his demeanor is solemn and generous; "He Xi Xi Xi", he is majestic, powerful and handsome. Such a man will be unforgettable and unforgettable as soon as he sees him.

In the third chapter of "The Great Learning" of the "Four Books", the first paragraph of "Qi'ao" is specially quoted to further elaborate on the importance of self-cultivation: Those who are like cutting and discussing are also Taoists; Those who practice self-study. ... There is a noble gentleman who cannot be ignored in the end. The Tao is so virtuous that the people cannot forget it.

You see, since ancient times, the gentleman's demeanor with both talents and virtues must have been cultivated through repeated efforts and hard work, and then managed the family, governed the country and brought peace to the world.

Reference translation: Look at the winding Qi water bank, with green bamboos. A true gentleman of literary talent and grace, his ears are studded with beautiful jade like bright silver, and his gem-studded hat is like the twinkling stars. He behaves solemnly and has a broad mind, and his status is more dignified. An elegant, handsome and true gentleman, once you see him you will never forget him.

Look at the winding Qi water bank, with lush green bamboos. A talented and true gentleman is as solid as a bronze vessel, and as solemn as a jade vessel. He is magnanimous, gentle and open-minded. He leans forward when he gets into a car. His witty remarks are really funny. He is gentle and elegant and does not complain.

Look, that gentleman is handsome and broad-minded in every gesture, like gold, tin, jade, and white jade. How can he not be admired by men and fall in love with women in the world?

When you meet such a man, even if you see him from a distance, it will make a woman's heart sway and the whole sky will light up.

If "cutting is like exchanging blows, pecking is like grinding" refers to the study and profundity of the intellectual personality of a "fantastic gentleman", then "like gold is like tin, like a guide is like jade" refers to " "A bandit gentleman" behaves gracefully and elegantly, "His ears are as clear as a gleam, his head is as sharp as a star" is the description of this peerless man's luxurious clothes.

Let's talk about this sentence from the ancients, it is a poem and a song. , it is simply a sound of nature that a skillful hand found by chance, and I feel that it is an irreplaceable good word. No matter how hard people try to translate it, it is difficult to match the elegance and beauty of the original text.

"Broad and graceful." "Xi, Yi is very heavy, good at joking, not cruel." This beautiful man is not only good-looking, talented, morally good, gentle and elegant, but also humorous and interesting. Everyone is willing to be with him and enjoy it together. , "Not for the sake of abuse."

In fact, good men are born in this world, but only Wei Feng described it so directly and boldly.

The place of Weiguo in the Spring and Autumn Period was. It turns out that the capital of the Shang Dynasty is where Chaoge is located. In the Wei Kingdom, most of the monarchs in the past were debauched and corrupted, with the rare exception of Wei Wugong in "Qi'ao", so he shines like the North Star in the darkness, and the song needs to be remembered. Chant it.

The poem "Qi'ao" itself is just a hymn of images. The time, place and person are not very referential. Therefore, it can be said that the images in the poem are not actual references. It is a scholar-official with high moral character in the Zhou Dynasty.

The whole poem is divided into three chapters, praising the beauty of this gentleman. First, he is a wise man, and he is a good minister in politics. The solemn and luxurious decoration on the face makes people admire and admire him even more. The repeated chants in the poem make the listener more impressed and can't help but feel fascinated, "There is a bandit gentleman", how can I miss him?

< p> Therefore, "Qi'ao" is a famous chapter praising men in the "Book of Songs", and Wei Wugong has become a strange man in Chinese poetry culture.

Confucius composed three hundred poems. . In later works, the melody of "Qiao" and the story of reciting poems are also used to express the feelings of the characters and promote the development of the plot, such as Jin Yong's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

The aunt is playing "Qiao" in the ancient tomb.

Guo'er: Auntie, what song are you playing? It's really nice.

Auntie: This is a song passed down from my ancestor's mother-in-law called "Qiao".

Guo'er: Oh, I know. Aunt Guo once taught me, "Looking at the Qi'ao, the green bamboo is Yiyi. There are gangsters and gentlemen, it's like fighting with each other, like polishing." It means to praise a man as gentle and flawless as carved jade. Auntie, who did grandma-in-law think of when she played this song? Could it be Wang Chongyang, that stinky Taoist priest?

Judging from this paragraph, Yang Guo knows the meaning of "Qi'ao". See below.

Cheng Ying rescued the injured Yang Guo into the wooden house, and Cheng Ying also played the song "Qi'ao" with the flute.

Yang Guo: Look at Qiao, the green bamboo. There are gangsters and gentlemen who are like quarrels and discussions, like grinding.

Cheng Ying (surprised): Do you also know this song?

...

A song "Qiao". But listening to Cheng Ying's playing over and over, I always get the first five lines: "Look at the Qi'ao, the green bamboo is Yiyi. There are bandits and gentlemen, it's like fighting with each other, like polishing." Whether it's high or low, slow and slow, it's always the same. The changes in these five sentences are quite lingering.

Yang Guo knew that these five lines came from the Book of Songs, praising a man as elegant as cut bone and ivory, as smooth as polished jade.

When he heard the familiar music and saw Cheng Ying playing the flute, what he thought of was the ancient tomb and his aunt playing the guqin in the ancient tomb.

How could Cheng Ying not know the deep love between Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu?

Although the profound meaning of "Qi Ao" does not match the plot of the novel, you cannot deny the magic of "Excellent Gentleman". At this point, I can't help but admire the unique charm of "Three Hundred Poems". The many images and emotions are inexhaustible sources of creation for later generations.

The green bamboo used to evoke "Xing" in the song has since become a symbol of the gentleman in China's thousands of years of civilization, who is noble, self-sufficient, extraordinary and perseverant.

Speaking of poems about bamboo, my favorite poem is "Zhuli Pavilion". It was written by Wang Wei, who was as elegant as bamboo, and lived in seclusion in Wangchuan, Lantian in his later years. Do: "Sitting alone in the deep bamboo forest, playing the piano and screaming. No one in the deep forest knows that the bright moon comes to shine."

Here, "Youhuang" refers to the deep bamboo forest, where the poet Wang Wei sits alone In the deep bamboo forest, I played the guqin to express my lonely feelings.

Zheng Banqiao in the Qing Dynasty was good at painting bamboo, and he also wrote many poems about bamboo, which are very wonderful. I like a poem titled "Bamboo" very much: "The whole world loves to plant flowers, but I only plant bamboo. Frost. The snow is all over the courtyard, and the new green shines freely. It snows all night, and the sparse shadows lose their greenness. Don’t let the wind blow them away, and the exquisite empty jade will be broken."

In China, "pine, bamboo, and plum blossoms" are used. Known as the "Three Friends of Suihan", they have always been praised and loved by the world. Bamboo has ten virtues, and its sentences are sonorous and have been praised by literati of all ages. Listing the three virtues here, you can get a glimpse of their extraordinary qualities:

Straight from the outside and open in the middle, with a broad mind like a valley, this is called an open mind; Er;

The texture is like stone, which can be used to make utensils. It is said to be strong in nature;

...

And the mind is like a valley, with the simplicity of flowers buried deep, The ten virtues of being polite and polite are not just for men, it is a spiritual quality that belongs to everyone.
