How to deal with ancient and modern sounds
My personal point of view is that this problem should be treated differently, and it cannot be read as an ancient sound or a modern sound.

If you read all the ancient sounds, first of all, it certainly doesn't conform to the language habits of modern people, and it must feel awkward. Secondly, as a general reader, it is difficult to distinguish what is the new ancient style sound, so most ancient poems are mispronounced. However, on the other hand, especially in places where rhyming and even intonation are strict, if the ancient sound is completely ignored, the understanding of poetry will inevitably produce some misinterpretations and misunderstandings. For example, the word "Xie" in the rhyme of this poem obviously doesn't rhyme when read as "Xie" in modern times. It should be pronounced as "Xia" in ancient times. Another example is the word "four". Today, it is only flat, while in ancient times, it was read flat, like Li Qingzhao's "Partridge Sky/Osmanthus fragrans"-"A poet can think mercilessly, why didn't he accept it then?" The word Si should have been pronounced in a flat voice, but if it is pronounced in a flat voice today, then.

Of course, this pronunciation difference between archaic sound and modern sound is rarely mentioned specifically in today's general Chinese education (except college Chinese education), and most ordinary people don't know what archaic sound is. Since we don't learn ancient Chinese, we only read ancient poems as a general hobby, so there is nothing wrong with reading with modern pronunciation.
