This poem is more widely known because it leaves two idioms: "Pride in the Spring Breeze" and "Take a quick look at the flowers".
Meng Jiao was a scholar at the age of forty-six, and thought he could be transformed from now on. Full of uncontrollable joy, it became this unique poem.
"It was not enough to boast before, but now there is no limit to debauchery." The first two sentences of this poem say that the hard days in the past are no longer worth mentioning, but today we should be the first and full of energy. At the beginning of the poem, I directly express my feelings, and I will not repeat the difficulties and ideological embarrassment in my past life. I vividly described the poet's triumphant state and expressed his triumphant pride. The beauty of these two sentences lies in emotion and scenery, which vividly depicts the poet's proud scene of galloping on Chang 'an Road, which is full of spring flowers. According to the Tang system, the Jinshi exam was held in autumn, and the ranking was awarded in the spring of the following year. It can be seen that "Spring Breeze" and "Bloom at Once" are the actual situations.
"The spring breeze is proud of horseshoe disease, and you can see Chang 'an flowers in one day. "The last two sentences of the poem say that flying against the strong spring breeze is like enjoying the famous flowers in Beijing in one day. These two sentences vividly describe the poet's high spirits and express his triumphant pride. The beauty of these two sentences lies in emotion and scenery, which vividly depicts the poet's proud scene of galloping on Chang 'an Road with blooming spring flowers. According to the Tang system, the Jinshi exam was held in autumn, and the ranking was awarded in the spring of the following year. At this time in Chang 'an, the spring breeze is blowing gently and the spring flowers are in full bloom. Qujiang and Xingyuan in the southeast of the city are spring-like all the year round. In the same year, the new Jinshi banquet was held here, and "the whole city of the Communist Youth League is here" ("Tang Yuyan" is the king of three or five generations). New Jinshi "Spring is full of people, covering roads and throwing flowers to meet Ma Hong" (Zhao Wei's "This year's new ancestors want to keep secrets, they will present books and congratulations at every banquet"). It can be seen that "Spring Breeze" and "Bloom at Once" are the actual situations. However, the poet does not linger on the objective description of the scenery, but highlights the "debauchery" in his own feelings: he can't help but spit out the word "proud" and wants to "see all the Chang 'an flowers in one day". How can you let him gallop on horseback on Chang 'an Road where cars and horses are crowded and tourists compete for scenery? There are so many spring flowers in Chang 'an, how can you finish them in one day? However, the poet can think that today's horseshoe is particularly light, or he can say that he has seen all the Chang 'an flowers in one day. Although unreasonable, but affectionate, because I wrote the true feelings, I don't feel ridiculous. At the same time, this poem also has symbolic significance: "Spring breeze" is not only the spring breeze of nature, but also a symbol of the emperor's luck. The so-called "full of ambition" refers to both emotional satisfaction and Jinshi and things.
The whole poem has a brisk rhythm and is accomplished in one go. This poem is very ideological and artistic, bright and smooth, and has a unique charm. "Spring breeze is proud of horseshoe disease, and you can see all the flowers in Chang 'an in one day" has become a favorite phrase of later generations.

Famous comments:
Song: When you are frustrated, you will complain too much. When you are proud, you will be arrogant and bohemian. What language is cold?
Song Zhou Zizhi's Zhu Po Shi Hua: I read Meng Dongye's first poem: "Abandoning and abandoning is like a knife wound." Deng's younger brother said, "I am proud of horseshoe disease, and I can see all the Chang 'an flowers in one day. "As for the gain and loss of the first place, it is better to enjoy it than to enjoy it.
Huang Song Che's poem "On Lotte and Later" left in the same year, saying: "The first place is not expensive, and you will be honored by your relatives." This Mao Yi is meaningful and means the same thing. The commentator's view that "spring breeze is proud of horseshoe disease" is by no means the language of Meng Jiao, and its style is different. And Bai Gong also has "don't hate when you are proud, and you are half-hearted." Horseshoe disease, homesickness in spring. "This is not clear.
Song Ge Li Fang's "Rhyme in Yang Qiu": Meng Jiao's "Luodi" poem says: "Abandoning it is like a knife wound." The poem "Once again" says: "If you wake up nine times a night, you can't dream of going home." "Down to the Southeast" said: "Gracilaria cried with me, and the sea and moon were amazing." Too many worries. ...... "Poetry for Liu" says: "I don't know, unfortunately, the treasure is not eye-catching and the sound is not deafening." "Tansheng" says: "If you complain about a poem, you will be forgiven. I hope that the text can be achieved, but now I am poor because of the text. " There's enough resentment. The poem "After Graduation" said: "In the past, the filth was not enough to brag, but today there is no limit to debauchery, and the spring breeze is proud of horseshoe disease, and you can see all the Chang 'an flowers in one day. The arguer used this poem to test the non-long-distance devices in the suburbs. I said I was depressed in the suburbs. As for those who cry repeatedly and don't listen, they get the first place at the age of 50 and are extravagant. Oh, they can't help themselves, so they have no ambition.
Ming Qu You's poems about returning to the fields: Dongye's poems are like "Eating intestines is bitter, but singing hard is not pleasant. Going out is an obstacle. Who says the earth is wide? " ..... The weather is just right for its life. But "Deng Di" says: "Spring breeze is proud of horseshoe disease, and you can see all the Chang 'an flowers in one day. "Put a lot of rope ink. However, Chang 'an can finish it in one day? This is also a sign that it is not great.
Ming He's Mirror of Tang Poetry: The last two sentences are like ancient poems, not quatrains.
