(30) A clever plan to catch fish. Su Dongpo and the monk Foyin were good friends. The two discussed poems and wrote couplets, and often made fun of each other, from which they derived great pleasure. Although Foyin is a monk, he does not avoid meat.
One day, he stewed fish and was about to eat it. When he looked up, he saw Su Dongpo entering the temple gate. I thought to myself: If he doesn’t come early, he won’t come late. He will come when he eats the fish, so I won’t let him eat it yet.
Out of desperation, he quickly turned the chime over, placed it on the fish plate, and pushed it aside. As soon as Su Dongpo entered the temple gate, he smelled the fragrant smell of fish and thought: It is better to come early than to come in time, and you can enjoy the delicious food.
Pick up the curtain and take a look at the Buddha. 2. 2 couplets with explanations
Jing Changchun's "Annotations on Couplets of Modern Historical Events" contains couplets of Wen Shengcai, the martyr of Huanghuagang, and others, saying: "The path of life is expensive with a white blade, but the dead are buried with yellow bones." Also fragrant.
The first couplet is very heroic. The "yellow flower" in the second line refers to both yellow flower hills and chrysanthemums, which is a pun and a metaphor for the immortal spirit of the martyrs.
----------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------- It is said that during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, when the Spring Festival was approaching one year, Kangxi ordered the University to Li Guangdi, a scholar, wrote hundreds of Spring Festival couplets to replace the old couplets in the palace. When Guangdi was worried about this matter, his younger brother Guangpo happened to come to Beijing and expressed his willingness to do it for him.
On New Year's Eve, Guangpo presented the following couplet to the emperor: There are seventy-two great sages underground, and the sages change their colors; the twenty-eight stars in the sky are all spring. When Kangxi saw it, he was greatly appreciated.
Seventy-two plus twenty-eight is exactly one hundred, so one pair is used instead of one hundred pairs, which can be said to be a clever use of numbers. "Xian, Xian" and "Su, Su" are connected.
"Xianxian" and "Susu" are overlapping words. The Seventy-Two Great Sages refer to Confucius’s particularly outstanding disciples.
There are many explanations for changing color. According to Yan Shigu, appearance is not important. -------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------- "The Great View of China's Ancient and Modern Artful Couples" says that Peng Geng of Hunan once published a couplet in This article was published in Tianjin Intelligence Magazine.
The couplet said: Faith is what people say. If you want to win people's trust, you must keep your word. Henan Yu Wanjie said: Smoke is the cause of fire. It is common to smoke to cause fire, so you should quit smoking. The couplet is a word analysis pair.
"People" and "Words" become "Faith", "Fire" and "Cause" become "Smoke", both of which can be seen in the couplet.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------According to legend, in the early years of the Republic of China, a bottle of French three-star brandy was hung at the door of a restaurant in Chongqing for solicitation. Couplet, there are many responders, but the boss is always dissatisfied.
Guo Moruo was still very young at the time. He rushed there after hearing the news. He thought of a famous dish in Sichuan that could be associated with wine, so he mentioned: Samsung Brandy, Huang Meitian in May. Most people only know that "Huang Meitian" refers to the climate but do not know that it is the name of the dish. They mistakenly think that this couplet means "the ruthless pair". In fact, the meaning of one wine and one dish is very coherent.
Embed the brand name and wine name in the upper line, and embed the time and dish name in the lower line. -------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------- "Jie Renyi" says that Tang Bohu often drank with Zhang Ling when he met him.
One day Tang said: Jia Dao was drunk and it was not fake. Zhang replied: Liu Ling drank all the wine without leaving any trace. Jia Dao, a poet of the Tang Dynasty.
Liu Ling, one of the "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove" in the Western Jin Dynasty, was addicted to alcohol. Zeng Ping's "Ode to the Virtue of Wine". Two methods are used in this connection.
"Jiadao" and "false down", "Liu Ling" and "Liu Ling" have the same pronunciation, which means they are "mixed"; "false down" and "Liu Ling" are verbs and objects. The phrase can also be regarded as the homophonic split of "Jia Dao" and "Liu Ling". -------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------- "Couplets" records that in the early years of the Republic of China, "Changsha Newspaper" had Long Gong Erjun as the chief writer. People at that time wrote a humorous joint publication in "Ta Kung Pao" and said: Long is the main author, Gong is the main author, Long Gong is the main author; Ma Bin Wang, Luo Bin Wang, Ma Luo Bin Wang.
The two main writers, Long Gong, are unknown. King Ma Bin, also known as Ma Zhou, was born in the early Tang Dynasty and served as the censor during the reign of Emperor Taizong.
King Luo Bin was also a native of the early Tang Dynasty and one of the "Four Heroes of the Early Tang Dynasty". His poems contained many sad and angry words, and he once wrote "A Call to Arms". The main method of linking words is character analysis, but also tautology and embedded names.
----------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------- "The Clever Coupling of Ancient and Modern Times" says that Tang Xianzu of the Ming Dynasty On the wedding night, the bride made a couplet and said: Red candle and dragon, the dragon in the water goes out of the fire; the ancestors have been shown for a long time but there is no right. Later, when I saw the embroidered shoes worn by the bride, I came up with a sentence: "Flowered shoes are embroidered with phoenixes, and the phoenixes come from the sky to the earth."
Because the dragons on the candles are both made of candles, they will be burned at the same time, so it is said to "go out of the fire". Because the phoenix is ??embroidered on the shoes worn on both feet, it is said to "come to the edge of the earth".
Lianhua uses contradictions to unify and express interest. -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------- "Lianyu" says that at the Yanzijiwu Temple in Nanjing, by the end of the Qing Dynasty, only one Lema Hengdao remained. Idol.
A certain person came to the temple and saw it and got the couplet: In a lonely temple on a lonely mountain, a general was riding a horse with a sword across his sword; he couldn't get the next sentence. Later, when the scholar was on his way to take the exam, he tied his boat to the river and caught wind that two fishermen were fishing opposite each other, so he came up with the following couplet: There is a river on both sides of the bank, and the two fishermen are fishing opposite each other with double hooks.
The cleverness of couplets lies in the use of numbers. The numbers in the first couplet are all one, and the words "solitary", "lone", "one", "horizontal", "pi" and other variations are used.
The numbers in the second line are all two, and the use of "two", "clip", "right", and "double" in other words makes people feel similar. -------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------- "Ji Xiaolan's Biography" says that Qianlong traveled to Mount Tai and reached the top of Jade Emperor, where he saw something in the north of Dongyue Temple. Mi Gaoyan, the key to the correctness is: when you look up, it becomes higher, when you dig into it, it becomes stronger, which can be said to be superior; when it comes to the correctness, it is beyond its kind, and it is superior to its excellence, and it is as good as climbing up to nature.
The couplet is used as a reference. Strong and deep.
The first two sentences of the first couplet are originally about Confucius's teachings, and the words come from "The Analects of Confucius·Zihan". This statement is Taishan.
The first two sentences of the second couplet originally talk about the greatness of Confucius, and they come from "Mencius Gongsun Chou", which also talks about Mount Tai. The first two sentences of the upper and lower couplets are self-pairing, and "Zhimi" and "Huqi" are tautology.
----------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------- "Commentary on Ancient and Modern Couples" says that when Tang Bohu was young, One day when I went out with my father, I saw a monk wearing a yoke for public display. He spoke to his father, and his father said: "It is against the law to cut off your hair." Bohu said to him: "If you become a monk, you are wearing a yoke." "Fa" and "Fa", "家" and "枷" have the same pronunciation but different characters, which is a confusion.
Being a wealthy man with a shaved head complements the crime of wearing a yoke. -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------- "Couplets" records that the chrysanthemums are in full bloom at Zhao Xiang'an's house outside Xuanwu Gate in Beijing.
One day Liu Jinmen and others borrowed the garden to admire chrysanthemums, and the owner asked for a new couplet. Asked the Lord what is good, he replied: "There is no other good thing, but chrysanthemums are my life."
A handwritten letter from Kinmen says: I only take chrysanthemums as my life; there is no right moment. He also asked the owner what his surname was, and he replied that his surname was Zhao, so he got the following couplet: It turns out that Songxue is a god.
Songxue is not only a natural object that is opposite to "chrysanthemum", but also the name of Zhao Mengfu. It is undoubtedly a hint of Zhao's surname, and it is also a great compliment to the owner. -------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------- Xue Cheng, a Qing dynasty writer, said in "Yong'an Notes" that there was a twelve-year-old Zhu Sheng in Anqing. His name is Meng Zhaoxiam, he is good at poetry and calligraphy, and he is especially good at calligraphy.
He once became famous as "Pangeng" versus "Jizi". It happened that Zeng Guofan was stationed in Anqing, so he heard his name and summoned him.
When asked about his family background, he found out that his ancestors were also born in the same family, so he divined the four-character fortune pair and said: . 3. Asking for 12 couplets

From a couplet, you can see something about Su Dongpo
1. Shan Mo Wei Yun Qin Xueshi Dew Flower Reflection Liu Tuntian Qin Guan and Liu Yong are both good friends of Su Dongpo.
Qin Guan wrote a very good song "Man Ting Fang". The first sentence is "The mountains are wiped with faint clouds", so Su Shi called Qin Guan "The Lord of Shan wiped with faint clouds". Qin Guan's son-in-law Fan Wen was very proud of his father-in-law's name.
He often introduced himself as "I am Shanmo Weiyun's son-in-law." People did look at him with envy.
Liu Yong retired from the post of Tuntian Yuanwailang, so he was called Liu Tuntian. At that time, Liu Yong's poem "Po Zhenzi" also had a famous line "Reflection of Dew Flowers" that was widely praised. Therefore, people at that time also called Liutuntian "the reflection of dew flowers".
On one occasion, Su Dongpo, Qin Guan and Liu Tuntian were drinking at the same table. When he was half drunk, Su Dongpo was in a mood for poetry, and he casually linked their names and nicknames into a couplet: Shan Mo Wei Yun Qin Scholar Dew Reflection Liu Tun Tian Qin Liu When they heard this, they laughed together and were deeply impressed by Dongpo. Poe's witty talent.
2. The poet is getting old and Yingying is busy with Yan Yan when the son returns. Northern Song Dynasty poet Zhang Xian, whose courtesy name is Ziye, likes to write slow lyrics. These three unique sentences, "The shadow of the curling flower" and "The shadow of the catkins are gone", earned him the nickname "Zhang Sanying". After he retired to the countryside in his later years, when he was over eighty, he still had a singing prostitute in his family.
Once, Su Dongpo visited him and gave him a couplet to mock Zhang Xian. The couplet reads: The poet Yingying, an old man, quoted the story of "The Story of Yingying" by Yuan Zhen of the Tang Dynasty (developed into the drama "The Romance of the West Chamber" in the Yuan Dynasty) in the Yanyan busy couplet on the return of the young master, and compared Zhang Xian to Zhang Gong, a flirtatious scholar.
Zhang Xian got the couplet and also made a couplet and wrote: Sorrow is like a fish who knows that the night is always lazy, and butterflies are busy for spring. This couplet expresses a confession to himself. Dongpo appreciated it. 3. A man once was a monk, but he cannot become a Buddha. A woman is humbled as a maid, and she can also be called Nusu. Dongpo and Foyin talked about Buddhist matters, and Foyin boasted about the boundless power of the Buddha and the boundless Dharma.
Su Xiaomei, Su Dongpo's sister, was eavesdropping behind the curtain and wanted to stab him, so she wrote a couplet and asked the maid to take it out and give it to Su Dongpo. Su Dongpo looked at it and said: " Interesting, interesting!" Then he read it to Foyin: People were once monks, but they could not become Buddhas. Foyin saw that he was mocking himself, so how could he be willing to admit defeat? After some thought, he finally came up with this couplet. He wrote it out and gave it to Dongpo. After reading it, Dongpo gave it to Su Xiaomei. Su Xiaomei read it and read: Women are humbled as maids, and women can also be called slaves. 4. A beautiful woman is sitting in the green gauze tent, and a monk is washing himself by the clear pool of peony in a sarong. One day when the gourd was soaked in water, Su Xiaomei was reciting poems against Su Dongpo. Unexpectedly, Foyin came in, and she hurriedly hid in the tent.
Seeing this situation, Foyin wrote a couplet: There is a beautiful woman sitting in the blue gauze tent. The little girl Shaoyao in the sarong thought: This monk is really annoying. The brother and sister were having a lively conversation, but you distracted them. He also recited poems to tease me. Okay, wait until I reply and scold you.
So he read: The monk was washing by the clear pool, and the gourd was soaked in the water. "The gourd was soaked in the water!" Su Dongpo clapped his hands and praised it. Foyin could only touch his bald head and smile bitterly.
5. When the incense fades at sunset, get rid of your mortal mind. When the fire is gone and the furnace is cold, come and tie your horse tightly for a day. Su Dongpo visited a temple and heard that the presiding monk in the temple had misbehaved, and he couldn't help feeling disgusted. But the host was very respectful to the famous Su Dongpo, entertained him very well, and shamelessly asked Su Dongpo for a favor.
Su Dongpo held the pen in his hand and wrote a couplet in a hurry: When the sun sets, the incense fades, remove the mortal heart, a little fire extinguishes the coldness of the furnace, come and tie the horse of mind firmly. The host hung the couplet high, and many literati saw it. Belly laugh. It turns out that this couplet tells two riddles, and the answer is "bald donkey".
6. Spring is always here at Xiangyangmen. People who have accumulated good deeds celebrate their success. Su Shi had many friends, among whom there was a poet, monk, and Buddha seal. Although this man is a monk, he never avoids wine and meat.
On this day, Foyin fried fish and drank wine, and Su Shi happened to come to visit. Foyin hurriedly hid the fish under the big chime.
Su Shi had already smelled the fish fragrance and disappeared when he entered the door. He had a plan in mind and deliberately said: Spring is always there at Xiangyang Gate. Foyin was deeply surprised that his old friend read out a well-known old sentence, and said casually: "Who knows that the next sentence is: People who have accumulated good deeds will have more than enough to celebrate."
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Shi was stunned. Laughing: "Since there are fish (surplus) in the chime (celebration), let's accumulate some kindness and take out one to eat." 7. A drunkard rides a donkey, bobbing his head to calculate the drinking debt; the boatman shakes his oar and bows to beg for mercy Su Dongpo and Qin Shaoyou often travel together.
On this day, they took a small boat together, went down the river, drank wine and recited poems, and had a great time. At this time, Su Dongpo saw a drunkard on the shore, riding a donkey, walking and swaying, looking very funny, so he wrote the first couplet: The drunkard rides a donkey, bobbing his head to calculate the debt. This couplet is very Qin Shaoyou didn't think it was right for a moment. When he was thinking about it, he suddenly saw the boatman at the stern of the boat. The boatman was rocking the oar up and down, which aroused his imagination, so he wrote the second line: The boatman shakes the oar to bow to the boatman to ask for money. When they heard the word "ship money", they quickly said: "No, no, we'll talk after we get off the ship!" Su Dongpo and Qin Shaoyou laughed endlessly.
8. In Matsushita Go, every time the pine nuts fall with the chess pieces and fished by the willow, the willow silk is often hung with the fishing line. Su Shi and Huang Tingjian in the Song Dynasty were both great writers. When they met, they often played against each other to increase the number of people. Interest in conversation. Once, two people were playing Go under a pine tree. Su Shi had just dropped a piece when a pine nut suddenly fell on the chessboard.
After a while, another one fell.
Su Shi stared at Songzi and said casually: "Songzi goes chess with Songzi. Every time Songzi falls with the chess pieces, he looks at Huang Tingjian."
Huang Tingjian also knew: This is for me to make a pair. Huang Tingjian raised his head and looked around, looking for the subject of the couplet.
At a glance, he saw a small river not far from them. There were several willow trees on the riverside. The breeze blew, and the long willow silk swayed across the water. There was a fisherman sitting under the tree, fishing with a long fishing rod.
Isn’t this a pair that was delivered to your door? Huang Tingjian responded with the following sentence: When fishing by willows, willow silk is often hung along with the fishing line to help people thrive in chess. The two of them played chess and wrote papers until very late at night before they stopped and went home.

Su Shi suddenly pointed to the left bank with his hand and smiled without saying a word. Foyin looked around and saw a yellow dog gnawing on a bone. He suddenly realized something and threw the cattail leaf fan inscribed with Su Dongpo's poem into the water.
The two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. It turns out that this is a dumb couplet.
Su Shi’s first couplet means: Dogs gnaw on (monk’s) bones on the river, and the second couplet of Buddha’s seal means: Water flows Dongpo corpse (Dongpo poem). 10. There is no mountain like it. 5. Basic antithetical metrical requirements of couplets
Couplet rhythm The formal name of couplets is couplets, commonly known as pairs. It is a unique form of Chinese language, literature and art in China, and is loved by people from all walks of life.
Couplet rhythm, in summary, consists of six elements, also called "six phases", which are summarized as follows: 1. The number of words in the first couplet should be equal to the number of words in the second couplet. In the long couplet, the number of words in each clause of the upper and lower couplets is equal.
There is a special situation, that is, the number of words in the upper and lower couplets is intentionally different. For example, during the Republic of China, someone satirized Yuan Shikai in a couplet: "Yuan Shikai is eternal; long live the Chinese people." The three words "Yuan Shikai" in the upper couplet and the lower couplet are " The four words "Chinese people" are "sorry", which means that Yuan Shikai is sorry for the Chinese people.
Duplicate words or repeated words are allowed in couplets. Duplicated words and repeated words are commonly used rhetorical techniques in couplets. However, when overlapping, pay attention to the consistency of the upper and lower couplets. For example, Gu Xiancheng in the Ming Dynasty wrote a couplet of Wuxi Donglin Academy: the sound of wind and rain and the sound of reading can be heard; family affairs, state affairs, and world affairs, everything is concerned about.
However, "heavy words in different positions" and "heavy words in the same position" should be avoided as much as possible in the couplets. The so-called overlapping words in different places means that the same word appears in different positions in the upper and lower couplets.
The so-called double characters in the same position means that the same word is used in the same position above and below. However, some function words with the same position and same position are allowed, such as Hangzhou West Lake Ge Ling couplet: the song of peach blossoms and flowing water; among the green shade and fragrant grass.
The word "Zhi" in the upper and lower couplets is repeated in the same position, but because it is a fictitious word, it is okay. However, there is a special "heterotopic and mutual emphasis" format that is allowed (called "transposition format"), such as Lin Sen's couplet to Mr. Sun Yat-sen: One person will last forever;
2. The parts of speech are equivalent. In modern Chinese, there are two major categories of speech, namely content words and function words. The former includes six categories: nouns (including locative words), verbs, adjectives (including color words), numerals, quantifiers, and pronouns.
The latter includes six categories: adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, particles, interjections, and onomatopoeia. Equivalent parts of speech means that words or phrases in the same position in the upper and lower conjunctions should have the same or similar parts of speech.
The first is the rule of "real versus real, virtual versus virtual", which is the most basic rule with the broadest meaning. Just follow this in some cases.
Secondly, there are corresponding rules for the parts of speech, that is, the above 12 types of words correspond to each other. This rule should be followed in most cases.
Again, there are the rules of meaning-category correspondence. Meaning-category correspondence refers to putting the same type of things expressed in Chinese characters together and contrasting them. The ancients noticed this rhetorical method very early.
In particular, the noun part is divided into many subcategories, such as: astronomy (sun, moon, wind, rain, etc.), seasonal (years, festivals, days, etc.), geography (mountains, winds, rivers, etc.), official offices (buildings, doors, etc.) ), vegetation (grass, trees, peaches, plums, etc.), birds (chickens, phoenixes, cranes, etc.), etc. Finally, there is the adjacent category correspondence rule, that is, words in adjacent categories can communicate with each other.
Such as astronomy versus seasons, astronomy versus geography, geography versus palaces, etc.
3. Structural compatibility. The so-called structural compatibility means that the grammatical structure of the upper and lower couplet sentences (or the structure of their phrases and sentences) should be as similar as possible, that is, the subject-predicate structure versus the subject-predicate structure, the verb-object structure versus the verb-object structure, Positive structure versus positive structure, parallel structure versus parallel structure, and so on.
For example, Li Bai wrote a couplet on the Yueyang Tower in Hunan: the water and the sky are the same color; the wind and the moon are boundless. Both the upper and lower couplets of this couplet have a subject-predicate structure.
Among them, "water and sky" and "wind and moon" are both parallel structures, and "one color" and "boundless" are both positive structures. However, in the case of equivalent parts of speech, the requirements for some more similar or special sentence structures can be relaxed appropriately.
Fourth, the rhythm is corresponding, that is, the pauses in the upper and lower lines must be consistent. For example: Don’t let the good days of Spring and Autumn pass; the most difficult thing is that wind and rain bring old friends.
This is a seven-character short couplet. The rhythm of the upper and lower couplets is exactly the same, both "two-two-three". For longer couplets, the rhythm must also be corresponding.
5. Harmony between Ping and Chou What is Ping and Chou? The classification of Mandarin's tone and tone, in short, Yinping and Yangping are Ping, and the rising and falling tones are Ting. Among the four ancient tones, the flat tone is flat, and the rising, coming, and entering tones are flat.
The harmony of oblique and oblique lines includes two aspects: (1) The upper and lower lines are opposite to oblique and oblique lines. Generally speaking, it is not required that the words should be opposite, but it should be noted that: the last characters (joints) of the upper and lower couplets should be opposite, and the upper and lower lines should be flat and the upper and lower lines should be flat; the words at the end of the phrase or the rhythm point should be the opposite; the upper and lower characters in the long couplet should be opposite. The last word (sentence foot) of each clause in the couplet should be the opposite of oblique and oblique.
(2) The upper and lower couplets alternate between oblique and oblique sentences. Contemporary Lianjia Yu Dequan and others summarized a set of "horse hoof rhyme" rules.
Simply put, "Pingping Ping Ping Ping Ping" has been going on, like the rhythm of horseshoe. 6. It is related to the content. What is a couplet? It is both "right" and "connected".
The above-mentioned equal number of words, equal parts of speech, same structure, corresponding rhythm and harmony of oblique and oblique are all "right", but there is still one "link" missing. "Connection" means that the content must be relevant.
The content between the upper and lower couplets of a couplet should be related. If the upper and lower couplets each write about an unrelated thing, and the two cannot reflect, connect, and echo, then it cannot be regarded as a qualified couplet. It doesn’t even count as a couplet. Extended information Couplets, also called Spring Festival couplets, are an ancient traditional culture in my country.
During the Chinese New Year, every household must post Spring Festival couplets. To talk about this Spring Festival couplets, we have to go back a long way, and its roots start with the pairs.
Saying Spring Festival couplets before the Spring Festival is not only seasonal, but also necessary. Because Spring Festival couplets are very popular now, but the knowledge of Spring Festival couplets is not popular.
My idea is: from the couplets to the couplets, and then from the couplets to the Spring Festival couplets, because the Spring Festival couplets are subordinate to the couplets, and the pairs are the basis of the Spring Festival couplets, so this article Let’s start from the basics in order to give everyone an accurate understanding. The meaning of "pairs" is that we can understand couplets and spring couplets as pairs. For example, in the old textbooks on elementary school, there is a book called "Li Weng Duiyun", which is a preparation for writing poems. It talks about: Pairs: "The sky is opposite to the earth, the rain is to the wind, the continent is to the sky.
Mountain flowers are to the sea trees, and the red sun is to the sky." We can proudly say that among all the languages ????in the world, Chinese It is the most suitable for pairs, because it has one word and one sound, no ending changes, plus rich tones, it has a neat structural beauty and a changeable rhythm, which is unique.
If you want to compare "sky" and "earth" in English, it will become sky versus land, which is difficult to achieve structural neatness. It goes without saying that the importance of pairs in my country's childhood education brings to mind a story about Guo Moruo's pairs. When Guo was six years old, his private school teacher came up with a pairing question: fishing.
Students can shoot birds, raise insects, swat flies, etc.
