No one talks about old things. For whom I fell drunk, for whom I woke up. To this day I still hate to say goodbye.

As the saying goes, look for new words and drink wine to meet them.

Where is the old friend? Also on Jiangnan Road. Hundreds of old sorrows cannot be separated. It's in vain to be retained by fallen flowers.

Tall buildings are only visible in the setting sun. The spring breeze brings joy to the people. It’s not too frequent to bring guests. Make you as mellow as wine.

To forget each other. Don't forget each other. Yushu Langjunyue Yanniang. I had heartbreak several times.

The post road invades the slanting moon, and the stream bridge passes through the dawn frost. A single yellow branch of chrysanthemum remains on the short fence. It is deep in the chaotic mountains, passing the Double Ninth Festival. There is no dream in the travel pillow, and the cold is growing every time. I just want to say that Jiangzuo has beautiful scenery. If you don’t follow the Central Plains, you will return to your thoughts and become desolate.

The disease is fragrant and weak, and the body is dry. Wind and rain bring spring back. A pillow at dawn to clear my dream, no one said it was like the Western Mountains. hurried laughter, frequent encounters, careless cups and plates. Not to mention that when we are surrounded by flowers, we forget about the plum blossoms and the cold weather.

After drinking, you will be melodiously intoxicated, and cooking tea will awaken your soul.

But I think the fairy medicine is a bit sweet and pungent. Break through the aura of the dragon group.

If you have a dream, you often feel like you are far away, but if you don’t have a book, you feel like you are late. A glass of wine and two poems. The yellow flowers on the small threshold are intoxicating.

The wind blows away the chaotic red and green, and the small city has few buildings. Light drizzle. Always accept the hatred from others. Every spring is good and every year I am sick, my concubine travels to the west. Water flows from the east. Not as sad as a broken flower.

Hateful to you is not like Jiang Louyue, north, south, east and west. North, south, east and west. Only togetherness without separation. Hating you is like the moon in the river, which is full but still in loss. It's still a loss if it's full for the time being. How long will it take to stay in Tuantuan?

The later generation of knowledge is not afraid of those who are clever and strong in memorizing, but those who think and inquire are afraid of the ears.

Zihou, a scholar who teaches etiquette, is the best at first having something to hold on to.

The heart and the Tao are hidden, and the abyss is deep and quiet. Wherever you live, you will become restless and human. If you hear the wind, you will be humble.

The Taoism should be done without any intention, and the actions should be done without any guilt. If the heart is still, it will be as quiet as the deep water.

Honesty and virtue can be convinced, and someone will come to test your ears.

Say what is good, do what is good, and think about what is good. If you do this, you are not a gentleman, and you are not a gentleman; if you talk about what is not good, do what is not good, and think of what is not good, then you are not a small man. People don't exist yet.

If the countrymen despise him and his parents hate him, it is okay not to be a gentleman; if his parents desire him and the countrymen honor him, why don't you become a gentleman!

You all want to be a gentleman! To be a gentleman, it is okay for you to work your own efforts and waste your money, but not to be a gentleman; if you do not work your own efforts and waste your money, why not be a gentleman!

Erudite To explain it in detail, I will talk about it in reverse.

I hope that the minister would rather be deceived by others than to let his love of virtue be lost.

Forbearance is the door to all wonders.

When you are new to composing poetry, you would rather lose the wildness than lose the beauty; lose the wildness without harming the temperament; lose the beauty and cannot restore it.
