Famous verses about patriotism and love for family:

Feeling sentimental about state affairs, I can't help but burst into tears, and the chirping of birds frightens my heart, which only adds to the sorrow and hatred of separation. The continuous war has lasted for more than half a year. Letters from home are rare, and one letter is worth ten thousand taels of gold. Wrapped in sorrow, I scratched my head and thought. My white hair became shorter and shorter, and I almost couldn't insert the hairpin.

When will the emperor send someone down to trust me just like Emperor Wen of Han sent Feng Tang to Yunzhong to pardon Wei Shang?
