"The Carp," sixth stanza, Yun Wang

In the stanza above, what does Wang use the symbol of the carp to illustrate?

Explanation:

 In this stanza the tent represents pain. The kind of pain caused to the author's father by the fact that his former friends were now beating him almost to death.

This carp is what the author uses as a symbol of this friendship, since everyone had eaten from it at some point, when they were all friends.

That is why the author emphasizes this with the phrase "They had tasted the carp.", Wanting to show how painful this moment was now.
