Entering the Song Dynasty

The Song Dynasty in 319 years left too many misunderstandings. Some people say that it is "poor and weak", while others say that it is a mistake to "emphasize culture over military affairs". But you know what? It was such a dynasty that pushed the status of literati to the peak of history - from "demon under the sword" to "guest of honor", and students from poor families could really become prime ministers by studying. This book does not tell boring chronicles, but takes you into the circle of friends of Song Dynasty poets. What hidden worries are hidden in Yan Shu's "There is no choice but the flowers fall away"? After Su Shi was demoted to Huangzhou, how did he write "I will live my whole life in mist and rain"? Li Qingzhao wrote from "Do you know whether you know" to "Looking for it", what happened in between? Whose fault was it for "Wang Shibei set the Central Plains Day" that Lu You didn't even wait for until his death? From the Chenqiao Mutiny to the Battle of Yashan, from Fan Zhongyan's dream of reform to Wen Tianxiang's desperate poem. This book uses seven volumes to interweave poems, characters and the fate of the times - you will find that the Song poems memorized in the textbooks were originally written by poets with blood and tears. If you want to understand the Song Dynasty, don't just look at the gorgeous houses in "Qing Ping Le". Open this book to see how literati struggled between ideals and reality, and how a dynasty went from prosperity to collapse. If you understand Song Ci, you will understand the three hundred years of the Song Dynasty.
