"If life is just like the first sight."
"strangers in life, you are old and I am north."
"Yue Ming is full of enthusiasm for laughing at me, and now he laughs at me."
"A generation of two people in a lifetime."
What kind of experience can make a person say so many famous "friend quotes"?
Let's reminisce about Nalan Xingde, a talented person in the Qing Dynasty who was prosperous in Kanggan three hundred years ago. People who are not familiar with Nalan must not understand. In fact, he is a prominent "official second generation".
His father is a cabinet scholar and a famous Nalan Pearl, and his mother was born in the royal family of Essien Joro. Nalan was the apple of his father's eye since he was a child, and became a personal bodyguard around the emperor when he was an adult.
His life is destined to be colorful.
Maybe it's in our nature, but there is always some loneliness and melancholy in Nalanxingde's expression. This character is inseparable from his marriage and career experience.
Lu's wife Nalan's worries
After experiencing the first love of "meeting suddenly, my heart is uncertain", Nalan, who was depressed at the age of 20, met the love of his life-his wife Lu.
Lu is the daughter of Lu Xingzu, governor of Guangdong and Guangxi. At first, their marriage was just a political product, but after marriage, they found that they were strikingly similar to each other: gentle, naive and affectionate, and they loved each other from then on.
"I remember playing hide-and-seek before and after the small building."
"I remember dyeing my fingernails red and stealing impatiens at night."
From Nalan's words, we can see that their marriage is happy and full of fun. When reading, Lu always goes into the study in advance to help him clear the table and put his favorite fruits and vegetables on it.
Nalan's literature is extensive and profound, and Lushi is not comparable to ordinary women. Lu once asked Nalan: What is the saddest word? Nalan was puzzled, and Lu replied, "If". Every "if" appears because there is nothing you can do about someone or something.
It can be seen that Lu's literary accomplishment is extraordinary. The word "if" appeared in Nalan's later poems. The most famous thing is: if life is like the first time.
However, fate makes man. After three years of marriage, Lu died in childbirth, which can be said to be a fatal blow to Nalan.
In the evening when the autumn wind blows and the yellow leaves fall into the window, the sober Nalan gets up and closes the window, thinking that after closing the window, the yellow leaves will naturally not bother again.
However, after the window was closed, the room suddenly became very lonely, and I could only hear the sound of my own clothes? Sound. When he was awake, he sat alone in an empty room, letting the sunset shine obliquely on him, dragging his figure for a long time. His whole body and mind are also immersed in memories of the past.
So, a poem of mourning "Who reads the west wind, Huanxi sand is cool alone" comes to the fore:
At that time, the talented scholar and literati were romantic, but he was the first scholar in the Qing Dynasty, proficient in classics, calligraphy and painting, riding and shooting, and the dream lover of thousands of ladies, but he never changed his original intention all his life, only seeking a pair for life.
In the sentence "Who reads the west wind, Huanxi sand is cool alone", what impressed us is not that the husband and wife are congenial but difficult to be together, but that Nalan is still committed to Lushi after eight years.
The career he was worried about was helpless.
After becoming a scholar at the age of 22, Nalan became an ouchi bodyguard. In a few years, he was promoted from a third-class bodyguard to a first-class bodyguard, and then to a top and senior bodyguard.
Taking his official career lightly did not make him lose himself and collude with court ministers. The military attache who has served the headquarters for many years has made him aware of the darkness and intrigue of officialdom, and he is eager to become a drinker between heaven and earth, wandering around mountains and rivers and spending the rest of his life smartly.
This word was written in 1684, when Nalan visited Hunan. Nalan accompanied the autumn wind to boating and drinking, heard the melodious lotus picking music floating from the lake, and saw the beautiful women floating around and dancing on the beach. On the boat, I seem to be a fishing rod fisherman, strolling in the lake in autumn.
From "Ten Miles of Lake Light in Huanxisha", Nalan borrowed the scenery of Li Houzhu and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers. It can be seen that although Nalan is in a high position, he often can't help himself, so he can only send his feelings to the mountains and rivers to comfort his tired and helpless heart.
Looking back on Nalan's ci, we will find that there are many descriptions about water. For water, Nalan has a special liking for morality. In the traditional culture of China, water is often compared to the virtue of a gentleman: pure and constant, nourishing all things and endless.
In life, Nalan often encourages himself with the virtue of water. No matter how the cold front of emotion gouges out his heart, no matter how the flame of officialdom burns, he tells himself that he can't drown his original childlike innocence.
Every time in the dead of night, Nalan takes off his waist sword, picks up a soft pen, dips in his talent, entrusts his heart to a queque poem, and his heart comes back.
At this time, Nalan is the real Nalan. There is no flashy spirit, no childe spirit, no eye-catching fighting spirit, no overbearing king spirit, only a simple heart that yearns for beauty.
