In the spring of the fourth year, Li Qing stayed in Baling County. In the second year, the government was harmonious and everything went smoothly. Is to rebuild Yueyang Tower, add its old system, and engrave Tang Xian's poems on it. It belongs to the composition to remember.

Guanfu Baling wins in Dongting Lake. Take a distant mountain, swallow the Yangtze River, and make a vast soup, boundless; It's sunny in the morning and cloudy at night. This is the grand view of Yueyang Tower, which was prepared by predecessors. But the northern martial arts, the Antarctic Xiaoxiang, and the poets who moved abroad will all be here, and they will look at things well.

If it rains heavily, the moon will not open, the evil wind will howl, and the turbid waves will be empty; The sun, moon and stars are hidden, and the mountains are hidden; Business travel is bad and ruined; Twilight is boundless, tigers roar and apes crow. When you go to the temple building, you are homesick, sad, sad and sad.

If it is spring, it is calm and the sky is high and the clouds are light; Sha Ou Ji Xiang, swimming in the brocade scale; The coast is blue and green. Or the long smoke is exhausted, the bright moon is thousands of miles away, the light is shining, the static shadow is sinking, and the fishing songs are answered. How happy I am! When you arrive at Dunsi Building, you will feel relaxed and happy, forget the humiliation, and leave the wine in the wind, which will make you feel happy.

Hey, honey! Is it to taste the heart of the ancient benevolent, or to do something different? Don't be happy with things, don't be sad with yourself; If you live high in a temple, you will worry about your people; If you stay away from the Jianghu, you will worry about your husband. It's worrying about going in and going out. But when will you be happy? It must be said that "worry about the world first, and then enjoy the world." Hey! Wes, who are we going home with?

The full text of Yueyang Tower consists of 368 words and six paragraphs.

At the beginning of the article, come straight to the point and describe the origin of the matter. Starting from the time of "Four Years of Li Youth", the style is elegant and straight; Saying that Teng was "living in exile" is a metaphor for the ups and downs of his official career, which laid the foundation for his later lyricism. In the following, only four words are used to write Teng's political achievements, which leads to the reconstruction of Yueyang Tower and takes notes, which is the introduction of the full text.

In the second paragraph, the style of writing is exciting and the words are passionate. First of all, I always say "Baling wins, in Dongting Lake", and set the following range of scenery. The following words "Take the distant mountains and swallow the Yangtze River" describe the spectacular Dongting Lake. A title and a swallow are very imposing. "Hao Tang Tang, the sea is vast and the sky is vast", which means that the water waves are magnificent; "It's sunny and sunny in the morning, and the weather is full", which is simple and vivid.

The first four sentences describe the spectacular scene of Dongting Lake from the perspective of space, while the last two sentences describe it from the perspective of time. The sentence "what predecessors have said is ready" is a link between the past and the future, and responds to the previous sentence "Tang Xian's modern poems". This sentence is not only modest, but also implies a turning point. After a "natural principle" change, a new artistic conception is introduced, from simply writing the scenery to writing the "feeling of seeing things" of the "moving poet" by combining scenes, thus forming the main body of the full text.

The third paragraph and the fourth paragraph are two parallel paragraphs, one sad and one happy, one dark and one bright, like two different emotional streams, which convey two diametrically opposite life situations in which scenery and emotions are mutually induced.

The third paragraph, people who are sad when writing things. Starting with "Ruofu" is very meaningful. This is a controversial word, but it also shows the emotional appeal of virtuality, which is the condensation, refinement and sublimation of countless realities and is quite typical. "Ruofu" describes a sad situation below, from bad weather to people's inner sadness. Here are four-word short sentences, which are rendered layer by layer and described step by step.

The fourth paragraph is happy to write things. Under the leadership of "Zhiruo", a sunny picture was opened. "If" is also an enumerated tone, but it has become loud in syllables and lively and powerful in style. Although the following description is still a short sentence of four words, the tone has changed, drawing the beautiful scenery of spring breeze, with beautiful scenery and clear water. More seagulls are flying freely, fish are wandering happily, and even ignorant aquatic plants and orchids are full of vitality.

With extremely concise pen and ink, the author painted a spring color picture of lake light, which seemed to be in front of him. It is worth noting that the sentence pattern and rhythm of this paragraph are similar to those of the previous paragraph, but there are other changes. The sentence of "harmony or" further expands the artistic conception, strengthens the meaning of repetition, and pushes the atmosphere of "jubilation" to a climax, while the mood of "climbing high and looking far" has become detached from "forgetting humiliation" and "taking wine with the wind".

The fifth paragraph is the focus of the whole article, starting with "Jifu", which is both lyrical and argumentative. After listing the two situations of sadness and joy, the author's writing immediately stirred up, revealing a higher ideal beyond the two situations, that is, "don't be happy with things, don't be sad for yourself." Being touched by things is human nature, but it is not the highest state of being a man.

In ancient times, benevolent people were determined and did not waver because of changes in external conditions. Whether it is "living in the temple" or "traveling in the rivers and lakes", the heart of worrying about the country and the people will not change. "I am also worried about entering, and I am also worried about retreating." This seems counterintuitive and somewhat incredible. In this regard, the author drew up a question and answer, and issued an oath of "worrying about the world first, and enjoying the world later" under the guise of the words of ancient saints. The end of the song is elegant and points out the main idea of the whole article. "alas! "Wes, who are we going home with? "Sad and generous, let a person feel sorry. Note the writing time at the end of the article and coordinate with the beginning of the article.

This article shows that although the author is in rivers and lakes, worried about the country and the people and persecuted, he still does not give up his indomitable will. At the same time, it is also an encouragement and comfort to his demoted comrades. Yueyang Tower is famous for its lofty ideological realm. Ouyang Xiu, another contemporary writer, said in an inscription written for him that he was interested in the world since he was a child, and he often recited to himself: "A scholar should worry about the world first, and enjoy the world afterwards." It can be seen that Fan Zhongyan's life code of conduct is "worrying about the world first, and enjoying the world later" mentioned at the end of Yueyang Tower. Mencius said, "Being rich is good for the world, and being poor is good for the world." This has become the creed of many literati in feudal times.

When Fan Zhongyan wrote this article, he was demoted to an official and "stayed away from the rivers and lakes". He could have taken an independent attitude and lived a leisurely and happy life. However, he put forward the principle that an upright scholar-bureaucrat should stand firm and do his own thing well, and thought that the promotion of personal honor and disgrace could not be ignored. It is hard to encourage yourself and your friends to "not be happy with things, not sad with yourself" and "worry about the world first, and be happy with the world later". The spirit embodied in these two sentences, the quality of suffering first and pleasure second, is undoubtedly instructive.
