In the mid-Tang Dynasty, there was a famous poet Meng Jiao. He was born in poverty and was diligent and talented since childhood. However, his career has been very unsatisfactory. From youth to maturity, he failed in the Jinshi exam several times.

In the 13th year of Zhenyuan in Tang Dezong (AD 797), Meng Jiao once again went to Beijing to take the Jinshi exam. This time, he is a scholar, and at this time, he is 46 years old. He happily wrote a quatrain of After Graduation to express his happy mood at that time:

In the past, it was not enough to boast, but now it is endless;

In the spring breeze, this proud horse runs at the speed of two beats. I visited all the sights of Chang 'an gracefully in one day.

The meaning of this poem is that there is nothing to boast about in the poor and embarrassed life in the past. Today, I won the Jinshi in high school and really felt the majesty of the emperor; I rode happily in the spring breeze and saw all the beautiful scenery of Chang 'an in one day. This poem vividly shows the poet's joy after winning the Jinshi, in which "the spring breeze is proud of horseshoe disease, and Chang 'an flowers are seen in one day" has become a famous sentence throughout the ages. ""The spring breeze is triumphant "originally refers to the smug mood of a scholar after finishing the exam, but now it generally refers to the smug mood after doing something successfully and achieving the goal.
