Leave a Beautiful Impression Through Reading

Slender clouds weave their patterns; shooting stars carry their sorrow across the endless Milky Way, unseen. One meeting in the golden wind and jade dew is worth more than countless encounters in the mortal world. Tenderness flows like water; a promised meeting passes like a dream. How can we bear to look back at the magpie bridge as we part? If two hearts remain true for a long, long time, why must they be together every morning and every evening?

Burning Away the Years

The late emperor had not completed half his undertaking when he died midway. Now the realm is divided into three, and Yizhou is exhausted. This is truly a critical moment, when our very survival is at stake. Yet the palace guards remain diligent, and loyal men beyond the court risk their lives, because they remember the exceptional kindness of the late emperor and wish to repay it by serving Your Majesty.

Maple Leaves in the Wind

The Attendants and Gentlemen of the Palace, Guo Youzhi, Fei Yi, Dong Yun, and the others, are all honest and sincere, with loyal and pure intentions. That is why the late emperor selected them and left them to Your Majesty. I believe that if you consult them on every matter within the palace, great or small, before putting it into practice, they will surely make up for any shortcomings and offer much benefit.

The World and I Are Just One Reading List Apart

Draw close to worthy ministers and keep petty men at a distance: this is why the Former Han prospered. Draw close to petty men and keep worthy ministers at a distance: this is why the Later Han declined. Whenever the late emperor discussed this with me, he never failed to sigh with grief and indignation over Emperors Huan and Ling. The Attendants, Palace Secretaries, Chief Historians, and Military Advisers are all upright and loyal men who would die for their principles. I hope Your Majesty will

Can't Go Back

I asked when I might reach the frontier, And passed Yanran on my mission to a vassal state. Like tumbleweed, I left the Han frontier; Returning geese flew into the barbarian sky. A lone plume of smoke rose straight across the desert; The long river met the round setting sun. At Xiaoguan I met a scout on horseback; The Protector General was at Yanran.

Chilly Moonlight

Autumn brings strange sights to the borderlands; the geese head south toward Hengyang without a backward glance. Sounds of the frontier rise on all sides with the horns. Among a thousand peaks, a long plume of smoke rises as the sun sets, and the lone city closes its gates. A cup of cloudy wine, with home ten thousand miles away; Yanran has not yet been carved with victory, so there is no way to return. The Qiang flute plays on, frost covers the ground. No one sleeps: the general's hair turns wh

The Cool-Hearted Girl

For a thousand ages, these rivers and mountains have stood, but where can we find Sun Zhongmou, the hero? Dance pavilions and song stages, all that splendor, have been swept away by rain and wind. In the slanting sunlight, among grass and trees, in ordinary lanes, people say that the man called Jinu once lived here. I recall those days: iron spears and armored horses, a spirit that could swallow ten thousand miles like a tiger.

A Few Glimpses of the Past

I often remember the pavilion by the stream at dusk, when I was so drunk I forgot the way home. When the fun was over, I rowed back late, and blundered deep into the lotus flowers. I rowed on, rowed on, startling a whole bank of gulls and herons into flight.

Petals Fall Upon My Shoulder

The wind and haze have cleared, and sky and mountains share one color. Drifting with the current, I let the boat go wherever it will. From Fuyang to Tonglu, a little over a hundred miles, the magnificent mountains and unusual waters are unmatched beneath the heavens. The water is a pale blue-green, clear to its thousand-foot depths. Fish and fine stones can be seen plainly, unobstructed. The rapids are faster than arrows, and the fierce waves race like galloping horses.

Cold Wind and Strong Liquor

On both banks rise tall mountains, all covered in hardy trees. They climb upward along the slopes, competing to tower over one another and point straight into the sky, forming countless peaks. Springs strike the rocks with a clear, ringing sound; lovely birds call to one another in harmonious song. Cicadas sing endlessly, and apes cry out without cease. Those who soar toward the sky pause to admire the peaks and quiet their ambitions; those occupied with worldly affairs gaze into the valleys and

Eight Degrees of Lingering Warmth

The sage has no fixed teacher. Confucius studied under Tanzi, Chang Hong, Shi Xiang, and Lao Dan. Those men were not as wise as Confucius. Confucius said, “When three people walk together, one of them is sure to be my teacher.” Thus, students need not be inferior to their teachers, nor teachers superior to their students. Some hear the Way earlier than others, and each has expertise in a particular field. That is all.

Gentle as a Breeze

The old immortal rode a yellow crane away; only the Yellow Crane Tower remains here. Once gone, the yellow crane never returned; for a thousand years, white clouds drifted on. On the sunny riverbank, the trees of Hanyang stand clear; fragrant grasses flourish on Parrot Island. As dusk falls, where is my hometown? The river mists fill me with sorrow.

Sweet Fairy

In the desolate lands of Ba and Chu, I have been cast aside for twenty-three years. I sing in vain of old friends and flute songs; home again, I seem like the man who returned to find the world changed. By the sunken boat, a thousand sails pass; before the ailing tree, ten thousand trees bloom in spring. Today, I hear you sing a song; let me borrow a cup of wine to lift my spirits.

Green mountains stretch along the northern wall; clear waters circle the eastern town. Here we part, and you go ten thousand miles, like a lone tumbleweed.

The Duke rode with Cao Gui, and they fought at Changshao. The Duke was about to sound the drums, but Cao Gui said, “Not yet.” The Qi army beat its drums three times. Cao Gui said, “Now.” The Qi army was routed. The Duke was about to chase them, but Cao Gui said, “Not yet.” He looked down at their tracks, then stood on the carriage crossbar and watched them. “Now,” he said, and they pursued the Qi army.

Last night, rain was light and the wind fierce; deep sleep could not dispel the lingering wine. I asked the maid who rolled up the curtain, and she said the crabapple blossoms were just as before. “You don't know, you don't know? The leaves must be lush and the flowers sparse.”

Laughing at the Fleeting Years

I am descended from Emperor Gaoyang; my late father was named Boyong. The year began in the month of Yin, and I was born on the day of Gengyin. My father examined my birth and bestowed a fine name upon me: He named me Zhengze and gave me the courtesy name Lingjun.

We agreed to meet at dusk, yet halfway there you changed your course! At first you gave me your word, but later you regretted it and fled to someone else. I do not mind parting from you; what grieves me is how often you change your mind.

I've Never Regretted It

I sighed and grieved in anguish, lamenting that my time was so ill-starred. I gathered fragrant orchids to wipe away my tears, which soaked my lapels in streams. Kneeling, I spread my robe and laid out my words; at last, my heart had found its true course. I yoked jade dragons to my phoenix carriage and, in a sudden gust of wind, ascended.

I watered my horses at Xianchi, then gathered my reins at Fusang. I broke a branch from Ruomu to brush the sun, and wandered at ease for a while. I sent Wangshu ahead to lead the way, and Feilian behind to hurry after me. The phoenixes flew ahead to scout, but the Thunder Master said my party was not yet ready.

A Joyful Reading List, Handpicked Books

Swiftly I traveled to the Palace of Spring and broke off a jade branch to add to my pendant. Before its blossoms fell, I thought of a maiden below to whom I might give it. I asked Fenglong to ride the clouds and find where Fufei dwelt. I untied my pendant cord to send a message, and asked Jianxiu to act as go-between. Everything tangled together, now joined, now parted; suddenly, the way forward was blocked.

Every Book Carefully Selected

Before Shaokang took a wife, he kept the two Yao sisters of Youyu. My words are weak and my matchmaker inept; I fear the message will never get through. The age is corrupt, and the worthy are hated; people conceal beauty and praise what is vile. The inner chambers are far beyond reach, and the wise king will not awaken.
