Li Bai’s poem about Gao Lishi taking off his boots 1. Li Bai’s mood after Gao Lishi took off his boots

Unofficial history says that when Li Bai wrote "Qing Ping Le", Yang Guifei polished the ink and Gao Lishi held the boots.

At the previous banquet, the concubine fed him soup with her own spoon. Later, everyone said that "literati have no business" and found allusions from then on.

The story of Gao Lishi taking off Li Bai's boots comes from Duan Chengshi's "Youyang Zazu", and is actually just a novelist's story made up by literati. Predecessors have long questioned this.

As early as the Tang Dynasty Li Zhao's "National History Supplement" records: "Li Bai drank a lot in Hanlin. Xuanzong ordered him to write music poems. He couldn't wait to be drunk, so he fertilized it with water. When Bai was able to move, he waved his pen. There are more than ten chapters, and the text is not added.

After confronting the emperor, he ordered Gao Lishi to take off his boots and ordered the young eunuch to discharge him. "Li Bai was often drunk in Hanlin.

One day, Xuanzong asked Li Bai to write a musical poem. Li Bai was so drunk that he wrote more than ten chapters in one stroke of his pen.

Xuanzong was very happy and continued to invite Li Bai to drink. Li Bai stretched his feet in front of Gao Lishi and asked him to take off his boots, but the emperor ordered the eunuch to "exhaust" and the taking off boots did not happen. This incident is also found in "New Book of Tang" and "Old Book of Tang". "Old Book of Tang·Wenyuanxia" specifically records "reprimanded", which means Li Bai was scolded and left.

In other words, Gao Lishi did not take off his boots for Li Bai.

2. The two allusions about Li Bai, the imperial concubine grinding ink, and Gao Lishi taking off his boots do not require a lot of character introduction

Gao Lishi (684-762), a native of Panzhou in the Tang Dynasty ( Today's urban area of ??Gaozhou City, Guangdong Province), he was the great-grandson of Feng An, the grandson of Feng Zhidai, and the son of Feng Junheng. When he was 10 years old, his family was confiscated for being implicated. At the beginning of the Holy Calendar of Wu Zetian (698), Lingnan summoned Li Qianli to enter the second eunuch. , one was a strong man, appreciated by Zetian, but later expelled from the palace due to minor offenses. The middle-aged man, Gao Yanfu, adopted him as his adopted son. More than a year later, Zetian called a strong man into the palace again.

In Jinglongzhong (708), Linzi King Li Longji became a confidant. In the fourth year of Jinglong, Li Longji launched a palace coup and killed Queen Wei, Princess Anle and Wu family members. Tang Ruizong was restored to power and Longji was established. As the crown prince, a powerful man participated in the planning and made meritorious service, and was promoted to a minister in the court and a minister in the internal affairs. In the first year of Xiantian (712), Lishi assisted Xuanzong in launching another palace coup to quell the chaos, and moved him to Qingguanglu, the official of the Yin Dynasty, as a member of the court.

At the beginning of Kaiyuan (714), he was granted the title of General of the Guards of the Right Prison. He knew that the internal servants could save troubles and Xuanzong favored the eunuchs, especially the powerful men as his confidants. From then on, the power of warriors dominated the government and the public. Memorials from various places must be submitted to the warriors for reading before being submitted to the emperor. Small matters were decided by themselves.

Ministers inside and outside the imperial court also tried to please the powerful men, including the prominent Li Linfu, Yang Guozhong, An Lushan, Gao Xianzhi, Yu Wenrong, Gai Jiayun, Wei Jian, Yang Shenjin, Wang Gong, and An Sishun. It is also because of currying favor with powerful men that they can hold high positions as generals and ministers. At the beginning of Tianbao (742), Lishi was granted the titles of Champion General, Right Prison Guard General, and Bohai County Duke.

In the seventh year, he was awarded the title of General of Hussars and Hussars, and his family was rich and wealthy beyond the comparison of princes. In the 14th year of Tianbao (755), An Lushan and Shi Siming launched the Anshi Rebellion and captured the two capitals. They followed Xuanzong into Shu and went to Maweipo. The soldiers mutinied and killed Yang Guozhong. They also forced Xuanzong to kill Yang Guifei. Xuanzong hesitated. , the strong men persuaded him to hang him.

After arriving in Chengdu, the powerful man was awarded the title of Duke of Qi due to his meritorious service. In the fifteenth year of Tianbao (756), Suzong proclaimed himself emperor and changed it to the first year of Zhide.

Later, Lishi returned to the capital with Xuanzong, added three divisions of Kaifu Yitong, and awarded five hundred households. In the first year of Shangyuan (760), Lishi was falsely accused and exiled to Wuzhou.

In the first year of Baoying (762), Emperor Daizong of the Tang Dynasty came to the throne. The warrior was pardoned and returned to the capital. He returned to Langzhou. When he learned that Emperor Xuanzong had passed away, the warrior faced north and died in mourning and vomiting blood. Daizong restored his original official position and granted him the title of Governor of Yangzhou, and was buried with him in the Tailing Mausoleum of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Bai teased Gao Lishi. Although Li Bai was favored by Xuanzong, he was afraid of being harmed by Li Linfu. He only wrote and wrote and did not dare to get involved in politics rashly. Li Linfu rose to prominence through Gao Lishi's relationship, so Li Bai didn't have a good impression of Gao Lishi.

One day, an envoy from the Bohai Kingdom presented a Fanshu. The writing was neither cursive nor official, nor seal script.

Xuanzong said angrily: "There are so many officials in the great dynasty, but no one can read a word of it! I don't know what the words in the book are, how can I criticize you? I can't be ridiculed by a small country!" Everyone was ashamed! , when he was in trouble, Xuanzong thought of Li Bai and summoned him to the palace. However, Li Bai knew the text and recited it fluently.

Xuanzong was so happy that he ordered Li Bai to use the word "fan" and draft an imperial edict. Li Bai wanted to take this opportunity to ridicule Gao Lishi and begged Gao Lishi to take off his boots.

Xuanzong promised and introduced it to Gao Lishi. Gao Lishi has always been the closest person to Xuanzong. He was the official champion general, the right prison guard general, and the Bohai County Duke. He was so powerful that he was so powerful. How could he accept this embarrassment? Because Xuanzong had an order, he couldn't go against it, so he had no choice but to swallow his anger. , do as ordered.

Li Bai was very pleased, so he immediately answered the letter and sent the envoy back. Gao Lishi has always been worried about this matter, but Li Bai was favored by Xuanzong, so he could not directly denounce Li Bai in front of Xuanzong, and then turned to the imperial concubine.

One day, Gao Lishi talked about poetry with the imperial concubine and persuaded the imperial concubine to abandon Qingping Diao. The imperial concubine said: "Tai Bai is a talented person who is unparalleled in our time. How can we discard his poems?" Gao Lishi sneered and said: "He compared Fei Yan to the empress. Just imagine what Fei Yan did on the day? Why did he dare to quote the comparison? "What do you mean?" The imperial concubine immediately changed her expression.

It turns out that women in the Tang Dynasty regarded plumpness as their beauty, and imperial concubines were no exception. However, women in the Han Dynasty, starting from Queen Zhao Feiyan, regarded thinness as their beauty. Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty was afraid that strong winds would blow Zhao Feiyan away, so he built a special building for her. A Qibao wind shelter. Xuanzong tasted the joke and said to the concubine: "It seems that you are not afraid of the wind. It doesn't matter if it blows as much as you want."

The concubine knew that Xuanzong meant to ridicule, so she didn't mind. Women are narrow-minded. The imperial concubine was provoked by Gao Lishi and thought that Li Bai's poems mocked her for being fat, so she couldn't help but hate Li Bai.

From then on, the imperial concubine served Xuanzong and repeatedly said that Li Bai drank and sang wildly and lost the courtesy of his ministers. Although Xuanzong loved Li Bai very much, he was disgusted by his concubine, so he had no choice but to distance himself from him and not call him in again.

Li Baizhi avenged Gao Lishi and lost confidence in the court controlled by Li Linfu. After three years of Tianbao, Li Bai begged to return it to his hometown. Xuanzong gave him the gold and returned it, and Li Bai wandered around again.

He was the eunuch in power during the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty. A native of Panzhou (now Gaozhou, Guangdong), his surname was Feng.

The young man was castrated and entered the palace in the first year of the Holy Calendar (698). Wu Zetian used her intelligence to control things.

Once he was expelled, the eunuch Gao Fu adopted him as his adopted son, so he assumed his surname of Gao. Gao Fu befriended Wu Sansi, and the powerful man returned to the palace and became the palace minister.

When Li Longji was the king of the vassal, the powerful people attached themselves to him and participated in the palace coup and performed meritorious services. Later, when Longji came to the throne (that is, Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty), he won the trust of powerful men. He was promoted to the right prison guard general, who knew the internal servants to save trouble. He was awarded the title of general of hussar and was granted the title of Duke of Bohai.

The powerful man is often imprisoned, and he must read the writings and lists from all directions first, and then make his own decisions on minor matters. Xuanzong said, "When a strong man is on duty, I will sleep well."

Internal and external ministers such as Li Linfu, Yang Guozhong, An Lushan, Gao Xianzhi, etc. all formed close ties to obtain the general position. Prince Li Heng (later Su Zong) called him his second brother, the kings and princesses called him Aweng, and the consorts called him Lord.

His assets are richer than those of princes. He once built a Buddhist temple to cast bells and entertained officials. It was stipulated that a gift of one hundred thousand dollars should be paid for each bell strike. Those who flattered him could strike twenty pestles, and those who were younger could also strike ten pestles.

Lishi was usually cautious and good at observing the current situation, so he was favored for a long time and had no bad reputation inside and outside the court. However, he had a great influence on Xuanzong's employment and administration in his later years, and he had a certain responsibility for the political corruption of Tianbao.

During the Anshi Rebellion, he followed Xuanzong to Xichuan and returned after Chang'an, Xijing, was recovered. In the first year of Shangyuan of Suzong (760), he was exiled to Wuzhou (now southwest of Qianyang, Hunan) for protecting Xuanzong, the Zen throne, and was hated by the eunuch Li Fuguo.

In the first year of Baoying (762), he was pardoned and returned, and he died in Langzhou (now Changde, Hunan). In the long history of China, the status of eunuchs is very strange, because they physically lack the part that men care about most, so although they are in the center of power and wealth of a huge country, they often suffer from personality and psychology.

3. The story of Gao Lishi taking off his boots

In the early years of Tianbao, Li Bai came to Chang'an. Someone recommended him to Tang Xuanzong. Tang Xuanzong summoned him in Jinluan Hall and made him a worshiper. Hanlin asked him to write poems and compositions in the palace.

One day, the peonies were in full bloom in the palace. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty took Concubine Yang to drink and admire the flowers in the Chenxiang Pavilion.

Tang Xuanzong suddenly thought of Li Bai and wanted to ask him to write some lyrics to cheer him up, so he sent someone to summon him. At this time, Li Bai was drunk in the hotel. People put him on horseback and took him to the palace, where they washed his head with cold water. After the drunkenness had subsided, Li Bai picked up his pen and wrote three poems in "Qing Ping Yue Ci" praising Yang Guifei and peonies. The poems were beautiful and fresh, and Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei were very happy.

Although Li Bai often attended palace banquets, he despised the powerful and did not take the emperor and the powerful people around him into his eyes.

Once, when he was drunk in the palace, he stretched out his feet and said to the eunuch Gao Lishi sitting next to him: "Take off my boots."

Gao Lishi was at a loss and had to take off Li Bai's boots. At that time, Gao Lishi was very powerful, and everything in the four directions had to go through his hands. Every civil and military official failed to fawn over him. He had never been insulted like this before. This incident made him very angry and decided to find an opportunity to take revenge on Li Bai. .

Concubine Yang loved to recite Li Bai's "Qing Ping Music", and Gao Lishi happened to be there. He deliberately said: "I thought that the concubine was insulted by Li Bai, and she must hate him deeply, but I didn't expect it." You love his poems so much!" Yang Guifei asked in surprise: "How could Li Xueshi insult me?" Gao Lishi said: "I wonder who the Han Palace is like in the poem? "Feiyan relies on new makeup," said Concubine Yang, "Yes!" Gao Lishi added, "Zhao Feiyan was born as a singer in the Han Dynasty court. Although she was later established as a queen, she was demoted to the queen for her bad behavior. Common man, he compares Zhao Feiyan to you for nothing, doesn’t he think you are too despicable?”

After hearing Gao Lishi’s words, Concubine Yang also became angry with Li Bai. From then on, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty almost The first time he wanted to appoint Li Bai to an official position, he was blocked by Concubine Yang.

4. In "Li Bai's Drunkness", "When he tasted drunkenness in the palace, he led Gao Lishi to take off his boots, so he scolded him"

I think it was because Li Bai had strong self-esteem and vanity. , Relying on one's talents and being arrogant but without moral education.

We can just imagine, if it were not Li Bai, but someone else got drunk in front of the emperor, what would you think of him? He didn't know etiquette. If Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty didn't love talents, and if someone like Zhu Yuanzhang paid special attention to summary, this alone would not be enough to kill ten Li Bai, and it would also affect the family.

Secondly, Li Bai was talented, but his talent was not recognized, so he lamented that he had learned martial arts but could not sell it to the emperor's family, and he was also resentful of the dignitaries who were far less talented than himself. It's understandable that literati have such a bad temper. And out of this twisted psychology, he wanted Gao Lishi, the most trusted eunuch of the emperor at that time and the emperor's companion since childhood, to take off his shoes. Whoever takes it off for him is not taking it off. If he has to take it off, Gao Lishi, isn't that because of his vanity? He can brag to others later. Who is Gao Lishi? Even though so many people are nodding and bowing to him, he still has to do it. I, Li Bai, take off my shoes?

5. About the powerful man taking off his boots and the concubine grinding ink

The following is excerpted from Baidu Benchu ??Madman, Feng Ge laughs at Confucius, "Gao Lishi takes off his boots and Yang Guifei grinds ink" is Li Bai's arrogant He said that he had been a Hanlin scholar in Chang'an for three years. He once accompanied the royal family on an outing to the mountains, Yaotai, blue sky, and white clouds. The spring breeze made him inspired by poetry, and he wrote "Clouds think of clothes, flowers think of appearance, spring breeze." Revlon on the fence. If I hadn't seen him at the top of Qunyu Mountain, I would have seen him under the moonlight at Yaotai. Concubine Yang liked this poem very much and recited it repeatedly. When the emperor saw that the concubine was happy, she gave her wine to Li Bai. Li Bai was a drunkard. The beautiful scenery, good wine, beauties, and good job made him fall into the clouds. The imperial concubine held an inkstone and invited Li Bai to compose another poem. Gao Lishi also laughed and joked: "Looking for sheep." Wolf Hair, let him think about it. Li Bai replied, "Take off your shoes, and I will write." Gao Lishi was not a good person either. With a twist of his head, he bent down and took off Li Bai's shoes. Li Bai wrote urgently, "Famous flowers dominate the country." Huan, looks like a king with a smile. I feel the infinite hatred in the spring breeze, leaning against the agarwood pavilion. He leaned on the railing beside the agarwood pavilion with his bare feet and said to Gao Lishi with a smile, "Take off your shoes and I will play another song." "Gao Lishi refused," Yang Guifei said, "I'm still holding the inkstone. Please take off your shoes quickly. He's not wearing any shoes either." Gao Lishi had no choice but to take off his shoes. Li Bai waved again: "A red branch is fragrant, and Yunshan Wuyu Mountain is heartbroken." May I ask who in the Han Palace looks like him? Poor Feiyan Yi in her new clothes. "

"Poor Feiyan Yi's new clothes.

" became the basis for Gao Lishi to slander Li Bai. Not long after, Li Bai left the palace and his career was over.
