Did Xia Wanchun, who wrote Farewell to the Clouds , die at the age of 16?

En was sixteen years old. Xia Wanchun (1631 1647) was originally known as Fu, the word is ancient, the name is Xiaoyin, Lingshou (a Lingxu), the milk name Duange, Han nationality, a native of Huating County, Songjiang Prefecture (now Songjiang, Shanghai) in the Ming Dynasty, a famous poet in the late Ming Dynasty, a young hero of the Qing Dynasty, and a national hero. Xia Yun Yizi.

At the age of seven, he can write poetry. At the age of 14, his father and Chen Zilong participated in anti-Qing activities. King Lu supervised the state and awarded the middle scholar.

Defeated** went to prison, endowed with a desperate poem, his widow and wife, and his expression remained unchanged when he was about to be executed. He is the author of "Southern Crown Grass", "Survival Record", etc.

Appreciation among the clouds.

This poem of farewell to his hometown expresses not the feeling of the shortness of life, but the extreme grief and indignation of the loss of mountains and rivers, the infinite attachment to relatives in his hometown and the firm belief in the struggle against the Qing Dynasty.

The poem is the first couplet of the narrative. Among them, the word "detention brigade" makes a highly concise summary of the poet's three-year life of tossing and turning and arduous anti-Qing struggle from his father Yunyi and his teacher Chen Zilong to the time when he fell into the hands of the enemy. The poet begins to describe the experience of the anti-Qing struggle, which seems to be calm, but chewing carefully, you can read the poet's agitated and tumbling emotional waves, and you can read the calm narrative that contains the poet's bitterness and infinite pain.

The jaw couplet expresses the poet's uncontrollable grief and indignation. The ending of being imprisoned by the enemy made it difficult for the poet to recover his ambition, and the ideal of recovering the country finally came to naught, so the poet was sad and indignant: "Infinite rivers and mountains and tears, who says that the world is wide?

In the face of all this, the poet can't help but "stand a few lines of dusk tears" and shed endless "infinite rivers and mountains tears". The poet has been looking forward to the resurgence of the Ming Dynasty, but in the end, the fortune was not good, the fate was unlucky, and the patriotic ambition of restoring the homeland and reorganizing the rivers and mountains failed again and again.

The neck couplet frankly reveals his attachment to his hometown and relatives. No matter how disappointed, sad and mournful, the poet is very clear about the end of his life: "I know that the spring road is near."

As life comes to an end, what should the psalmist think? "It's hard to leave your hometown", why is it difficult for poets to leave their hometown? It turned out that what came to his heart was not only national hatred, but also family hatred.

My father rebelled and was defeated, and he sacrificed his life for the country. And he is the only boy in the family, this time he fell into the hands of the enemy, he is more than lucky, and it is inevitable to die, in this way, the family luck is unfortunate, and I am afraid that there will be no heirs. Thinking that he has been running around for many years and has failed to fulfill his filial piety to his mother, resulting in his mother-in-law "entrusting his traces in the empty door", his biological mother "parasitic on another surname", and his family "cannot rely on each other in life and cannot ask each other in death", he remembered that his newlywed wife has been alone at home for two years, and he has failed to fulfill his responsibilities and obligations as a husband, and it is unknown whether his wife is pregnant.

Thinking of all this, the poet naturally felt deep guilt and infinite attachment to his family.

The will of the Tail Alliance to recover. Although it is difficult to say goodbye to his hometown, the poet will eventually put the restoration ambition above the private feelings of his children, and does not think about the heirs of the family, and finally shows his heart: "On the day of the return of perseverance, the spirit flag will be seen in the sky."

As the poet said in the "Letter to the Mother in Prison", "Twenty years later, Chun and Xian Wenzhong are the actions of Beisai." The poet who "knows that the spring road is near" calmly made the plan of "resolute return", and held the determination to die unyieldingly and resolutely restore his sight. The poem ends with a sound oath, which clearly shows the poet's unyielding fighting spirit and his innocence of serving the country loyally, gives affectionate encouragement to his successors, and sets up an immortal monument for readers that the interests of the country and the nation are above all else.
