Tongquetai introduction, what is Tongquetai for?

Tongquetai was used by Cao Cao to demonstrate his efforts to pacify the four seas. The bronze finch was a good omen for him to dream about. After Cao Cao eliminated the Yuan brothers, he stayed in Yecheng at night, and saw the golden light rising from the ground in the middle of the night to dig a bronze finch the next day.

Cao Cao was overjoyed, so he decided to build the bronze bird platform on the Zhangshui River to show its contribution to pacifying the four seas.

Tongquetai was a meeting place for writers at that time, and in modern terms, it was a private club used by a group of literati to eat, drink, and have fun, and to create literature. In order not to waste resources, it is also used to entertain colleagues. Because of its high size, it may even be used as a watchtower.

Tongquetai is the birthplace of Jian'an literature.

Cao Cao was not only a politician, a military strategist, but also a writer who opened a generation. The literati gathered around him were called the "Ye Wen People Group". Their gathering was mainly due to Cao Cao's love of literature.

Their activities include poems written during the banquet in Tongquetai, such as a large number of "Public Banquet" poems in "The Seven Sons of Jian'an", as well as proposition creation, co-authoring with the same topic, and mutual evaluation of poems.

This organized literary activity greatly contributed to the literary prosperity of the time. Cao Cao's "Dengtai Fu", Wang Cang's "Denglou Fu", Cao Pi's "Classics", Cao Zhi's "Luo Shen Fu", Cai Wenji's "Poems of Grief and Indignation", etc., are still deeply loved by the world. And most of these works were made in Yecheng Tongquetai.

Bronze Bird Lock Two Qiao Allusions:

Er Qiao was imprisoned in Tongquetai. It tells the story of the Battle of Chibi during the Three Kingdoms period: Da Qiao and Er Qiao were noblewomen who belonged to the highest class of the ruling class of Eastern Wu.

Da Qiao is the wife of Sun Ce, the former lord of Eastern Wu, and the sister-in-law of Sun Quan, the then lord of the country, and Xiao Qiao is the wife of Zhou Yu, the military commander who is leading all the soldiers and horses of Eastern Wu to fight Cao Cao to the death. If Cao Cao becomes the victor in the Battle of Chibi, then Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao will inevitably be robbed and locked up in Tongquetai. This is the allusion of Dongfeng not with Zhou Lang, and Tongque Chun Shen locked Er Qiao.
