Heaven and earth are one dynasty, ten thousand dynasties are a short time, and wine is the only thing that matters, how do you know the rest? He only drinks wine as his main business, and how can he care about anything other than wine?

This is from Liu Ling's "Ode to the Virtue of Wine", which reads:

There is a great gentleman who regards The heavens and the earth as a single dynasty, The ten thousand periods of time as a blink of an eye, the sun and the moon as bibimbap, and the eight wastelands as a courtroom. The sun and the moon are bibimbap, and the eight worlds are the streets of the court. I'm not going to be able to get a lot more than that, but I'm going to be able to get a lot more than that," he said. The first thing you need to do is to get a good deal of time off from your work, and then you'll be able to get to work.　

There is a noble man, a man of honor, a man of the world, a man of the world, a man of the world, a man of the world, a man of the world, a man of the world, a man of the world. It is a great opportunity to see how the world is going to be able to make a difference in the lives of people. Mr. Fang then cupped the tank, cup gargling mash; bearded, pillow yeast by the lees; no thought, no worry, the joy of it. Drunken, waking up; quietly listening to the sound of thunder, familiar with the shape of Mount Tai, do not feel the cut muscle of heat and cold, the feelings of desire. Look down and see all things, disturbed, such as the rivers and rivers of floating weeds; two ho service side, such as the Eumenes and lacewing.

The translation of this passage is like this:

There is a Mr. Lord, he regarded the long time since the opening of heaven and earth as a dynasty, he regarded ten thousand years as a blink of an eye, he regarded the sun and moon in the sky as the doors and windows of his own house, and he regarded the vast faraway places as his own courtyard. He was free and uninhibited, using the sky as his tent and the earth as his couch. When he rests, he carries his goblet and his cup; when he walks, he carries his jug; he drinks only for the sake of wine, and how can he care for anything other than wine?

There were honorable princes and dukes and hermits of the Great Belt, and when they heard that I was like this, they talked about me. They rolled up their sleeves and lifted up the lapels of their garments to strike, and, with wide eyes and gnashing of teeth, they spoke of worldly rites and laws, of right and wrong, and on and on and on. When they are speaking vigorously, Mr. adults but took up the wine, the cup of wine into the mouth, leisurely swinging beard, a great disrespect to stretch the two feet sitting on the ground, he pillows the mother of wine, cushion the lees of wine, do not think, Tao Tao into the happy countryside. He was so drunk that it took him a long time to sober up. When he listened with his heart, he could not hear the loud sound of thunder; when he looked with his heart, he could not even see the size of Mount Tai; he could not feel the changes of heat and cold; he could not be moved by the mundane feelings of interest and desire. He stooped down to look at all things in the world, see them like the floating weeds on the Jianghan general mess, not worth a care; Gongzi Shi beside him, like that Eumenides and lacewing general small.

Ode to the virtues of wine is a piece of parallelism, this piece of parallelism the whole of a virtual "Mr. adults" as the main body, through the drinking of wine shows a kind of arbitrary, indulge in such an attitude of life, and the feudal rites and the scholar made a bitter satire:

The poem can be divided into three layers. This poem can be divided into three layers, the first to "only wine is business, how to know the rest" for the first layer. The author, with a pen like a rafter, sketched out the image of a "Mr. Big" who is a man of the heavens and a man of the world, who is beyond time and space. He, "to heaven and earth for a dynasty, ten thousand period for a moment", shrinking long for short, shrinking the long distance for a moment, than Zhuang Zi's "to long special smell" of Peng Zu and "to eight thousand years for spring, eight thousand years for autumn "The author spreads the wings of imagination and stands in the middle of the world. The author spread the wings of imagination, standing in the universe, the height of the celestial body, looking down on the earth, the world's changes, naturally feel small and insignificant, then why catty in the once of the cross, draw on the evening of the transformation. He, with "the sun and the moon as Bibimbap, the eight wastelands as the court and the street", shrinking the big for the small, shrinking the open and distant for the court, the broadness of his mind, his vision of the lofty, transcendent, even Zhuang Zi's "the absolute clouds, negative sky", "Tuan Fuyao goat's horns and up" of 90,000 miles. The upper 90,000 miles" of the roc, also can not look at its back. The above four sentences, both to highlight the "Mr. adults" of the tall, out of nowhere, but also for the latter to show its "virtue" to lay a picture of the background of the oversized.

The next section describes the clothing, food, housing, and behavior of Mr. Adult, who stood all alone and was extraordinary: "He traveled without a trace, lived without a room or hut, and sat on the ground under the sky, as he wished to do". Since the sun and the moon are only like Bibimbap and Bibimbap, and the streets are so free to come and go, ordinary carriages and horses can't be carried, and ordinary rooms and huts can't be covered, he, Mr. Adult, was so bold and unrestrained that he was able to enjoy the sky as a curtain and the earth as a mat, and to be as free as he wanted to be, which could be said to be the realm of "free and easy travel" as described by Zhuang Zi.

To this point, the author's strokes from the virtual to the real, from the first four sentences of the ethereal, to this four-sentence overview, and then specifically extended to the adult Mr. "move stop", which led to the "wine" word, cut into the main topic. He is no longer a general drinker, but a binge drinker. Whether at rest or in action, he either "manipulated the goblet" or "took the goblet" or "scandened and carried the pot", always with wine as a disciple, "only wine is the business". It was recorded in history that Liu Ling went out to hang wine scandens on his car, and was accompanied by a hoe, saying, "If I die, I will dig up the ground and bury me. This can serve as a footnote to the above sentences. It can be seen that this "Mr. Adult" is not only the ideal character that Liu Ling aspires to, but also contains Liu Ling's own character and shadow. And "only wine is a matter of business, how do you know the rest", seemingly transcendent, do not care to camp with the camp, scramble for fame and fortune of the world, but raise a glass to pour sorrow more sorrow, which is also more or less dissatisfied with the reality of the whining, harboring cynicism and indignation of the feelings.

The second layer of the poem goes from the "noble gentleman" to the "bee of right and wrong", and puts forward the repercussions of the opposite side of "Mr. Adult" on his binge-drinking. Around the word "wine", the conflict between drinking and anti-drinking is unfolded, making the article twists and turns, stirring back and forth. The "noble dukes" are the ones with vested interests, who undoubtedly have to maintain the name and religion of their wealth and fortune; while the officials and eunuchs of the "Squire", as the author calls them, are not without irony, and naturally, they have to safeguard the rules and regulations of the rites and customs on which they rely to advance in the world. These people could not tolerate the near-mad drunkards who undermined and flouted the laws of etiquette.

Thus, "I heard the sound of my wind and discussed the reason for it," and the word "heard" means "discussed," which shows the narrow-mindedness of these people and the tactics of their raillery; "Discuss" is not too much, and even "to fight with the arm of the lapel, angry eyes and teeth", the author even under the "fight", "hustle", "anger", "anger", "anger", "anger", "anger", "anger", "anger", "anger", "anger", "anger", "anger", "anger" and "anger". The author even under the "fight", "bustle", "anger", "cut" four verbs, live painting this group into the siege and attack, the fierce fierce face. They "Chen said" the core, naturally, "rituals and laws", a time, spittle flying, "right and wrong" said, swarming up. There was no place for the straightforward people, no place for the upright. The above description is by no means the author's casual imagination, but a generalization and reflection of the dark and corrupt politics of the time, true and moving.

The third layer of the story is about the answer of Mr. Admiral to the attack of the gentleman and the scholar. If the reasoned refutation of this group of people indulging in the rituals and laws, not understandable, but to the detriment of "Mr. Big" of the open-minded nature, it would be better to go in the opposite direction, in order to frankly act to break through the rituals and laws of their name and religion, Mr. Big then simply intensified, not one cup after another cup, elegantly drink, but "Holding poppy bearing groove, cup gargling mash", how rude and impetuous, simply full of mouth and face, head and body are immersed in wine. Not only that, the posture of drinking also changed, sitting on the "bearded Kei Gao", over the rites of the offense; lying on the "pillow song with bad", lawlessness. Mr. Adults are at ease, "no thoughts, no worries, their joy, and drunk".

This series of arrogant and disrespectful behavior is undoubtedly the biggest challenge to the so-called etiquette, but also to the "gentleman", "the gentleman" of the biggest stick. Don't look at these righteous people seem to be happy, day to day running in profit and fortune, drawing on the eunuchs, but the gods hurt and worry about exhaustion, and the Yuwu guile, which is not as Mr. so pleased with himself. At this point, the author has cut into the word "virtue". Next, the author uses the drunkenness to further expand and develop the "virtue of wine". Drunkenness is so drunken, "Wu Ran", unconscious; waking up is so waking up, "Yuel", the heart Lang chest clear. Here, even though he was drunk, he was still three times awake, and already awake, he was still three times drunk. Therefore, his senses are different from normal people: hearing is "quiet and don't hear the sound of thunder"; vision is "familiar with the shape of Taishan"; sense of touch is "don't feel the cold and heat of the cut muscle, the feelings of interest and desire". Write hearing, vision is just depicting the drunkenness, is a kind of accompaniment, the purpose is to highlight the adult Mr. not for the desire to shake the feelings, willing to live in the noble character of indifference.

The author's "Mr. Big" has been "unheard of," "unseen," "unaware," and "unaware" of people. But the people are exceptionally thorough: "look down on all things, disturbed as the rivers and rivers of floating Ping", all things in the world is so chaotic drift uncertainty, what can be attached to a care. You and other gentlemen, as if Eumenes win, lacewing such small things, how can long. The words "two ho", but also compared to worms, is a wonderful irony, extreme contempt. The meaning of the words at this level seems to be mostly self-deprecating, not distinguishing between right and wrong, but looking at the whole text, it is laughing and cursing, and it is so clear that right and wrong are self-evident. That "Mr. Adult" although indulged in wine, but not indulged in its heart, the virtue of wine by the rise; and that the gentleman, the gentleman, although not indulged in wine, but indulged in zafa, full of sermons, the more show that they have no virtue. The so-called "virtuous man" is the most unvirtuous, the so-called "unvirtuous man" is the most virtuous, which is exactly where the title of this article lies.

Personal experience:

The text is not long, the rhyme is resounding, the host and the guest confrontation, the narrative is organized, the literary atmosphere is voluminous, the pen is full of ink, is a rare short Fu. It is no wonder that not many writings of Liu Ling, with this "Ode", among the famous "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove" in the Jin Dynasty.
