Well, seems like even crowded people cannot stop the enthusiasm of my mom.
Finally, we went into the museum in the middle of the day, avoided the hottest time of the day. I was separated
from my family, all went to different sections they are interested in themselves. For me, I have to go to the
special activities, that my mom wants me to.
We were led to a room full of models of people and houses and artwork. It will be a story about the life of
Qingzhao Li and some of her famous poetry.
The model was set, and the history of a well-educated lady in a Gorgeous Era.
As the model of a born baby was selected from a group of models, the narrator began to introduce.
For the family reason, especially under the influence of her father, Qingzhao has begun to get in touch with
poetry from an early age. Qingzhao’s achievement in poetry is not separable from her learning environment. She
has grown up in Licheng, where the scenery is as beautiful as paint and the talented are gathering.
The image has been put on was a paint of Jinan in the Song dynasty. We could see that there are luxuriant trees
with mountains and a river. Especially the girl called Qingzhao had a father who is educated. I could understand
why she has great talent on literature.
As Qingzhao grown up to the age of five, the background image change, and her father have the cloth of
loyalties. Her father has duties in the capital city, so her family moved to Dongjing (not Tokyo).
What is ashamed to speak is, at that time, the rulers of the Northern Song dynasty enjoy their lives a lot.
Dongjing is still very prosperous. Qingzhao, as a daughter of scholar-official class, could not leave her home as a
man did due to the imprisonment of feudal etiquette and get in touch with the whole society. But after all, she
was born in a city, not as closed as the woman lived in the landlord’s house. Therefore, she could paddle the boat
and play in the depth of flowers. Because of this, she left much legendary poetry. She can also follow her family
to the streets of Dongjing to watch the wonderful lanterns and bustling street scenes, all of which cultivate her
character, enriched her spiritual life.
“So, you mean that if the feudal etiquette disappeared, she could have greater success?” Asked by a girl.
“Emm, yes? Maybe, because the closed-minded of Song people, woman’s ability is greatly limited.” Answered
by the narrator.
“What a pity!”
The story continued.
At the age of eighteen, Li Qingzhao married Zhao Mingcheng. After the marriage, Qing Zhao and her husband
were in love, they were together anywhere, they were a couple, family and friends. Li Qingzhao and Zhao
Mingcheng studied painting and calligraphy together and lived a happy and beautiful life. Zhao’s father was a
well-known politician at that time. After marriage, she devoted her whole body to the advanced studies of
literature and art and the collection and research of the stone writing.
In 1127, the Jin people broke through Jingjing, and the Qingzhao couple also fled to the south with the refugees.
During a city rebellion, Zhao Mingcheng fled the city, leaving Qingzhao was disheartened by his action. Zhao
Mingcheng felt ashamed and depressed about this and died on his way to the post of Governor of Huzhou.
