He has a solemn and thoughtful demeanor. Guang, his status is prominent and majestic. Mr. Gaoya is a true gentleman, and it is hard to forget him at first sight.

Look at the winding bank of Qishui, and the graceful green bamboos. , The gem-studded hat is like a star. His demeanor is solemn and broad-minded, and his status is more majestic. Mr. Gaoya is a true gentleman, and it is hard to forget him at first sight.

Look at the winding bank of Qishui and the lush green bamboos. Mr. Gaoya is a true gentleman, as solid as a bronze vessel, as solemn as a jade vessel. He is magnanimous and open-minded, he is so forward-looking while leaning on his car, his conversation is so humorous, and he does not complain when he makes a joke.)

Appreciation. :

This is a song by Wei Feng called "Qi'ao". Qi refers to Qishui, and Ao refers to the bend of the river. In Qishui Tangtang, a sandbank on the winding bank, there is a green bamboo forest. It must have been an evening with bright sunshine and bright breeze. The bamboo forest beside the flowing water was slender and quiet, reflecting the harmonious sound of the water, giving people an indescribable sense of openness and loftiness. And such a long thought makes people involuntarily think of a peerless and outstanding man.

Human thinking is really strange. Completely unrelated people and scenery can be connected from one place to another in a touching connection, and they are wonderfully connected. Just like looking at the green bamboo forest, it reminds me of the excellence of that man. This irrelevant association is the most subtle and profound feeling in thinking. In poetry, this feeling is called "xing".

The beauty of poetry lies in the beauty of feeling. Wei Fengli's "Qiao" describes the wonderful feeling that an excellent man gives people. This man has a peerless appearance, is elegant and calm, has a calm demeanor, and is as deep as water. Every time Qing'er reads it, he can't help but marvel and yearn for it, and he can't stop imagining the noble elegance as jade as orange tree.

If a man has good looks, he is not considered a good man. The goodness of a man lies in his bearing, his temperament, and the charm of his personality. If a person only has good looks, he is a manly woman and has become a catwalk on the catwalk. Beauty is beautiful, but it does not touch the heart. Just like the Tang monk, he looks elegant, but his words and chants are really boring and have no interest in life. Most of the female fairies who like him are thinking about his immortal flesh. , not much admiration in it. But I really don’t have a good appearance.

The Duke of Wei in "Qi'ao" is actually a magnificent and good man. "Like cutting as much as learning, like plowing like grinding" means that his temperament is stable and elegant, while "like gold as tin, like a guide as a wall" means that his behavior is mediocre and elegant.

The ancients said "cutting" to treat bones, "cutting" to treat ivory, "cutting" to treat jade, and "grinding" to treat stone. A man's temperament is as strong as bone, as noble as ivory, as smooth as jade, and as pure as jade. Unwavering as stone. With every movement of his hands and feet, he is rich and handsome, shining like gold, tin, jade, and white jade. How should that shine so brilliantly that it shines in people's eyes? Such a man, even if you see him from a distance and never exchange a word with him, will still illuminate a woman's heart and mind.

What's more, this masculine temperament is as far-reaching and extraordinary as the sound of the harp: "The harp is like the harp." The majestic and dignified people were full of admiration: "Scared Xi" and "Xuan Xi". Hey, such a man will be engraved in his heart as soon as he sees him, and will never be forgotten. It is no wonder that the woman named Qing'er thousands of years later has been wandering in this ancient "Qi'ao" countless times.

The ancient people's refining of sentences was like the sounds of nature that a skilled hand accidentally picked up. No matter how hard people today try to translate their literary talents, it is difficult to match the beauty of the original sentences. Sentences such as "cutting like hammering, like pecking like grinding", "like gold like tin, like a kui like a wall", read aloud, just like swallowing pearls and chewing jade, and suddenly feel the fragrance on the teeth and cheeks, which is indescribable beauty. And the description of this peerless man's luxurious clothes in the poem is "his ears are as bright as a gleam of light, and his head is as sharp as a star", which makes Qing'er even more envious of the perfect conciseness and beauty, and feels that it is an irreplaceable good word.

In fact, it is not a bad thing for men to pay attention to clothing. Men's clothing also needs to be carefully matched with their personality. Qing'er always feels that those who are disheveled and have no sense of style in their clothes must be sloppy or even sloppy in their temperament and behavior. And gorgeous clothes are often just the right icing on the cake for an outstanding man. And a man with an empty connotation, no matter how dignified he is in his attire, always has the suspicion of being on a catwalk wearing makeup and makeup that cannot be concealed. People can't help but feel that his appearance is disgusting and avoid him. . It can be seen that the degree of gorgeousness of a man's clothing must complement his temperament and quality. Just like the swordsman wearing the same name, and the red pink as a gift only to the beautiful lady, the clothes and the person must be in harmony with each other to be beautiful.

And the man in this song is as handsome as a wall, with jade earlobes and a bright hat. "His ears are gleaming, and his body is like a star." The clothes and the person really complement each other and shine. The beauty of each other's faces is like good water brewing good tea, and its taste is long and mellow, which is endlessly memorable.

However, what makes Qing'er even more nostalgic is: "He is broad and graceful, he is heavy, he is good at teasing, and he is not cruel." Her unparalleled beauty was restrained and deep, just like the endless darkness of the night, while the stars and moon were all bright, reflecting in the deep pool. This peerless man is humorous and funny, like a star in the sky, twinkling mischievously, having fun and loving to tease people. The strange thing is that the people being teased are also willing to share the joy and joy, "not for the sake of being tortured."

This can not but be said to be a kind of personality charm.

Humor in character is like the morning dew on the flower branches, making the flowers more real and beautiful, and more approachable to people. Qing'er likes flowers with still dripping morning dew. She thinks the humor in men's nature is funny. She always exaggerates the temperament of "like quarreling, like discussing, like polishing", and there are thousands of ways to describe it. Inside.

A man with a good temperament and good manners, if he is not good at "joking", will be dull and tasteless, and if he is not close to others, he will not make people happy. It's even a bit like the luxurious furnishings in the lobby. It's good if it's good, but it's cold and indifferent with an air of indifference that repels people thousands of miles away. Qing'er likes Huang Yaoshi, but what makes her heart flutter is not his peerless martial arts, but his strange and eccentric thoughts and all kinds of strange Dunjia. He even cut the veins and tendons of his disciples against common etiquette. However, the disciples were still attached to their teacher and did not harbor any resentment. Such charming charm is as bright as the rays of the sun at that moment in the morning, which really makes people's hearts sway.

Such a man, An Yiru said, "The bamboo leaves are bad for the color of the water, and the man is bad for people's hearts." He wants to make people fall in love in a mess. But Qing'er said that "we will never be together without love, and we will look down on each other for a long time." She is as clear as water, and she has become her lifelong confidant, but she has never lost any love. Just be the only, most intimate and intimate Mo Ni.

Good men exist in this world, but only Wei Feng described them so directly and boldly. The place of Weiguo in the Spring and Autumn Period was the original place where Shang Zhou sang his songs. Although the Wei Kingdom is in a good place, most of its monarchs have been mediocre and corrupt. The Duke of Wei in "Qi'ao" is the rare exception, so he shines brightly like the North Star in the darkness. To sing about it. Just imagine if all the kings from generation to generation were wise, then all the stars in the sky would shine brightly, but the dazzling splendor of the North Star would not be visible.

As a result, Wu Gong became the first strange man in Chinese poetry culture. The green bamboo used to evoke "Xing" in that song has since become a symbol of the gentleman in China's thousands of years of civilization.

The government was weak, but the scholars were weak, and the scholars were weak, but the culture of the scholars was weak. At that time, the culture and folk songs of Weiguo were particularly lively and free. To use a sentence from Hu Lancheng's "History of Chinese Literature": When the culture of scholars is like the obscure and powerless eclipse of the sun, the literature of the people is like the stars in the sky. Therefore, the songs in the Book of Songs that most directly describe stunning men and stunning women are all based on Wei Feng.

Think of Zhuang Jiang, who was originally a daughter of Qi, but because she married the king of Wei, she had the Wei style "Shuo Ren" that took the trouble to describe her beauty. This song became a poem describing beauty by literati in subsequent dynasties. The originator of. Later, the equally stunning beauty Wen Jiang, because her husband was the king of Lu, did not have a moving chapter dedicated to her beauty to praise her beauty like "Shuo Ren".

This cannot but be said to be a luck of literature. However, this kind of luck is the result of the clouds breaking through the moon and the flowers making shadows, with unexpected magnificence and depth.

In fact, the most beautiful encounters in the world, the chance encounter with a stunning woman or a peerless man, are all in books.
