Introduction to the stele of "The Hairpin-headed Phoenix": In the spring of 1151, 10 years after Lu You and Tang Wan divorced, Shen's Garden was opened to the public. Lu You went there alone with melancholy, but unexpectedly met his ex-wife Tang Wan and her remarried daughter. Husband Zhao Shicheng. Just when Lu You was about to leave sadly, Tang Wan obtained Zhao Shicheng's consent and sent him food and drinks. Lu You felt sad at the scene and wrote "The Hairpin-headed Phoenix" on the wall:
Red hands, yellow wine, the city is full of spring scenery and willows on the palace wall. The east wind is bad, happiness is thin, and I am full of melancholy. I have been away for a few years. Wrong, wrong, wrong!
Spring is as old as ever, people are thin and empty, and the tears are red and silky. The peach blossoms have fallen, and the pavilion is idle. Although the mountain alliance is there, it is difficult to hold the brocade book. Mo, mo, mo!
When Tang Wan saw this, he was filled with emotions. He couldn't afford to fall ill, and he died in depression due to incomprehensible sorrow and resentment! During his illness, Tang Wan wrote a poem about "The Hairpin Phoenix·The World's Love is Poor":
The world's world is poor, human feelings are evil, and flowers tend to fall at dusk when it rains. The morning wind has dried, and the traces of tears remain. I want to write down my thoughts, and I lean on the leaning railing alone. Difficult, difficult, difficult!
People are different, today is not yesterday, and the sick soul is always like a rope on a swing. The sound of the horn is cold, the night is dark, I am afraid of being asked, so I swallow my tears and pretend to be happy. Hide it, hide it, hide it!
