Li Bai's story

? Li Bai was a great and famous poet in the Tang Dynasty in China. His poems are fresh and lively, unrestrained and full of romanticism. During his study tour, he was praised as a man with a heart, who could cough and spit, and Li Bai could write poetry and drink. Generally speaking, we get drunk when we drink too much. There are three situations: one is groggy and snoring, and the other is vomiting and getting drunk. Those beautiful words and expressions written by Li Bai gushed out like spring water, so there are hundreds of poems about fighting wine in history, which means that drinking one point of wine has one point of talent and drinking ten points of wine has great inspiration.

According to legend, Li Bai didn't study hard when he was a child and played truant. Once he went to a bay without going to school and saw an old woman grinding a thick iron bar on a stone. Li Bai felt very strange and asked the old woman why she was grinding it. The old woman wiped the sweat from her face and said with a smile, where is the embroidery needle? Li Bai thought, when can the iron bar be so thick and the embroidery needle so thin? What's so strange about this? As long as you work hard, iron bars can also be ground into embroidery needles. Li Bai was deeply inspired and impressed. He thinks he should study hard. Since then, he has studied hard, and a hundred schools of thought contend, four books and five classics, astronomy and geography, foreign literature and foreign languages. After more than ten years, he is knowledgeable and talented. He was originally from Longxi. Such as floating clouds and wild cranes, wandering around the world, almost all the famous mountains and rivers of the motherland have left his footprints. This year, he swam to Chang 'an, the extremely prosperous capital of the Tang Dynasty. Those high-ranking officials and families, Zhumen dignitaries, sang and danced day and night. Li Bai has a poet friend named He, who is an official in North Korea. He received Li Bai warmly. He Zhangzhiqin admired Li Bai's talent and thought that Li Bai was by no means an ordinary layman, but a fairy. And tried to persuade him to take the imperial examination, get an official position and work for the court. Otherwise, it would be a pity. Li Bai was free and easy by nature, and didn't want to bend over for five buckets of rice, but his friend refused to accept the proposal, so he agreed to take the imperial examination. This year happens to be a big year. In order to increase the insurance factor, He Zhangzhi wrote a letter to the examiner at that time, mainly introducing and recommending Li Bai's talent, hoping to be reused. Who was the examiner in those days? One is. Yang is a wicked and uneducated villain. Under the love of Yang Guifei, he rose to the highest level, and his official position has always been the prime minister. It can be said that under one person, over ten thousand people, people hold power and their hands are hot. Whoever has offended him is in big trouble, so everyone is afraid of him. There is also an examiner, Gao Lishi, who is good at flattery and won the favor of Ming Chengzu and the imperial concubine.

Li Bai was also advised to dredge it. Li Bai didn't know that he had written a letter to Yang. He advised others that I had no money, and even if I did, I wouldn't give it to him. Besides, I might as well say that I didn't pass the exam. Is it my own talent or because I gave money? No matter what you say, it's disgraceful, but Li Bai didn't ask about it at all. He relied on real skills.

At some point, the exam date is up. Like other candidates, Li Bai entered the examination room and sat down. In a short time, the test paper was distributed. Li Bai looked at the examination questions, smiled, unhurriedly raised his pen, and wrote all over the place. Just like the spring of thought, the pen has gone, and a wonderful article has come out of the manuscript, which can be said to be the writing. Is this question from the Four Books or the Five Classics? I'm scratching my head and don't know where to start writing. At this time, Li Bai left his seat and handed in his first paper. When someone handed in the paper, Yang and Gao Lishi came. When they saw the name of Li Bai written on the paper, their faces immediately darkened. Li Bai could have left when he handed in his papers, but Yang was furious when he thought that Li Bai would not give him a gift, but give him the money. Yeah, you deserve to take the exam for this shit, and you want to win the first prize? Li Bai calmly replied that anyone who wants to be the top scholar wants to be admitted, but there is only one, which cannot be decided by him. Candidates are just taking their chances. How dare he say a word? Yang saw that he had nothing to hide when he talked about it. What he said was neither supercilious nor refutable, and he roared with shame. How dare you make a fool of yourself by sophistry? People like you too. Then Yang's words don't deserve grinding ink, only shoes for me. Come on, kick him out. The men immediately jumped up like sons, pushing and pulling, and just pulled Li Bai out. China has a saying that men can be killed, but they can't be humiliated. This humiliation of Li Bai has never been experienced in his life. His face turned pale and his whole body trembled, but this was not a reasonable place. I shouldn't take the imperial examination, which makes people angry. He was very happy when he saw Li Bai coming back. He looks gloomy and terrible. I don't know what happened. He thinks the examination questions are difficult and the articles are not well written. Li Bai began to be silent, and it took a while to tell him about the examination room. After hearing this, He Zhangzhi knew it was impossible, because who would care except the emperor? So I had to gently persuade and comfort Li Bai and wait for the opportunity to take the exam again. Li Bai said bitterly that if I had a chance to run that day, I would like Yang to grind ink for me and Gao Lishi to take off my shoes. Of course, this can only be heard as a complaint at that time, because although Li Bai can write, he is still grassroots. It's hard to say if you want an open country to grind ink for him. Isn't it crazy and strange? Fan Bangguo, in the northwest of the Tang Dynasty, sent a letter claiming that if someone in the Tang Dynasty knew about this book and wrote back, they would pay tribute every year and come to the DPRK every year, otherwise they would send troops to crusade without mercy. Don took the book and opened it. This is really a surprise. The words on the paper are snakes of birds and beasts, not to mention not reading a word. Yang hands took a look, his eyes were blind, his back was cold, and his forehead was sweaty. He didn't know it was upside down, and he accepted it smoothly. He repeatedly said that I was incompetent and didn't understand a word. Don said to him, you can pass it on to the ministers and see who can recognize it. So Zhang San passed it on to Li Si, and Li Si passed it on to Wang Wu. Like a parcel, everyone was afraid of falling into their hands. Some waved their hands again and again, and some shook their heads frequently, resulting in both civil and military skills. Usually you all boast of your versatility and how to take care of martial arts. Now, you can't say a word, you can't recognize a word. It's really disappointing. Where is my power and dignity in the Tang Dynasty? I was not laughed at by the country. For three days, no one recognized me. Officials, large and small, demoted themselves, suspended their posts in March, and left the dynasty with long sleeves. You look at me, I look at you.

In addition, Li Bai often visits teahouses and hotels these days, and sometimes he never goes back for a day. When the three-day deadline passed for two days, Li Bai came to He's house and saw He's gloomy face. I don't know why, but I won't know until I ask. Li Bai said with a smile, what's the problem? It's easy to read and write model essays. Hearing this, he was really surprised and happy. He quickly said, oh, this is the bottom. Who would have thought you would know how to write this article? Wizards, Wizards, I will play against Ming Sheng tomorrow, which is a great contribution to you. The next day, Hershey came to the imperial court and saw Wu Wen in full court, scared like eggplant after frost, with his head down and a bitter face, without saying a word. Tang sat in the dragon chair with bulging eyes, but no one seemed to know this article. He was very worried. Brilliant, able to know, I heard that someone knows Tang, and his face became happy. He asked, is there anyone else coming? What's his name? He said that the man was just outside the temple, surnamed Li. Because he was a right-hand man, he couldn't see the driver. The emperor immediately added Li Bai as a bachelor of imperial academy, and gave him clothes, shoes and hats, and immediately went to court. Ministers breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that someone knew Fan Wen. Extraordinary and free from vulgarity, like a symmetrical tree, I love it very much, so I asked Li Bai where he came from and where he lived. Li Bai answered one by one. The emperor asked him if he knew the model essay, and Li Bai said that he had read it. So the emperor immediately asked the eunuch to hand it to Li Bai, who opened it and replied, I know what it means. Tang said to him, do you read the model essay in public? Li agreed, and the emperor sent a decree for Fan Bangzhong to come to the temple. As soon as he heard the imperial edict, he hurried to the hall to see the joke. At this time, Li Bai stood up, holding the essay in his hand and mumbled for a while. The Manchu civil servants were at a loss, but the envoys of that country listened with trepidation. I can't believe that Li Bai reads more regularly than their people. After reading it, the son of heaven asked the ambassador if he had read it correctly. He lowered his head and said, Yes, he asked again. At this time, the emperor ordered Li Bai to translate the contents of the book into Chinese and tell it to everyone, so Li Bai translated it sentence by sentence in Chinese. At this time, Manchu officials realized that this was a gauntlet. The book praises how powerful, well-armed and well-fed our country has been in recent years, and it is no longer willing to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty every year. If no one knows this article in the Tang dynasty, they will fight with the Tang dynasty, and their tone is very arrogant. After the translation, the Emperor asked the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs how to reply to the book. Ministers looked at each other, but no one dared to make any noise, because for many years, Cheng Pinghe had been singing and dancing, and his sword had already been put in storage. When it comes to fighting scenes, not only the civil servants are afraid, but even the military attache is pale. Who wants to give up a rich and drunk life and go to war? Then he began to say to the emperor, "Long live, please, don't worry, I have already considered the contents of this reply." The emperor was very happy when he heard this, and quickly said, Ah, you have thought about the content of your reply, so tell me what you are going to write. Li Bai replied that the gauntlet of this small country is nothing more than testing my attitude towards China and feeling our strength. We don't really want to invade the Central Plains, but we can't afford to lose it. Peaceful coexistence is beneficial to both sides. If I go my own way, I will send soldiers to China. Once I send troops, I will be unstoppable. I will plow the fields and sweep the holes, and destroy them all. I am kind and generous, cherish my people, and don't care about your irrationality. I also keep friendly relations. So I will combine kindness with kindness and clarify my meaning. I think all countries will weigh their interests and dare not move. Li Bai has a long speech with clear pronunciation and mellow voice. When Li Bai finished writing, the emperor said, please write a letter to Li. Li Bai finally waited for this opportunity to show his original anger, so he told the emperor that it was easy to write palindromes. Only a few days ago, he was tortured by evil spirits, fidgeting and upset. It's hard to write well. Excuse me, Yang and Gao Lishi are both in the temple. I am afraid that Li Bai's humiliation will be shaken off, and I feel like playing drums in my heart. Later, when I saw Li Bai talking about the content of the defense, I didn't mention the examination room. Now that Li Bai has been wronged, their hearts are in their throats. I was afraid that Li Bai would take advantage of the situation to retaliate against them, and my heart could not help but jump. My face is red and white, and I'm on pins and needles. I was resentful when I heard that Li Bai couldn't write. Now I finally have a heart. No one can do this, which will not only damage China's national prestige, but also lead to war. With that in mind, Li, is there any way to make you feel better? As long as there is, you say it and I'll decide for you. Li Baizheng immediately replied, I am easy to calm down, pointing to Yang and Gao Lishi, as long as Prime Minister Yang is good for me. Immediately shouted, bold, Tang knew that this person's requirements were harsh. He asked Yang where to put this face in front of the officials of the Manchu Dynasty and the envoys of various countries, but he ignored Yang, so he didn't care about Tang. So, Tang said with a smile, Premier Yang, it didn't take much effort. For my sake, you made a mistake and rubbed ink on Li. Yang heard the emperor say so, and there was nothing he could do. Li Bai held out his hands upward and smiled: He sat in the chair behind the desk with his feet outstretched. The meaning is naturally clear. Seeing Yang Mo Mo, how dare Gao Lishi not move? Naturally, he took off Li Bai's shoes with his ass up, and then stood at the table with his hands respectfully, watching the embarrassing situation of the two of them. The ministers of civil and military affairs all laughed secretly. Li Bai saw that he got what he wanted today and calmed his heart. It's really sharp to be reasonable and emotional and stick to the principle of righteousness and strictness. I've integrated everything I just said, and then I'll read it aloud after I write it. I was really full of energy. When I left for North Korea, the ambassador went to the door with a reply and asked He Zhangzhi what his official position was. Even the minister was grinding ink for him. He said, can the Prime Minister compare with him?

Besides, Li Bai stayed in North Korea, ready to make great achievements. Then he wrote many suggestions from Qiang Bing, a rich country, which he hoped the emperor would adopt. Who knows that Tang didn't care about Li Bai's state affairs at all, but only wrote new words and songs for the emperor, so Li Bai actually became a scholar for the imperial use and made fun of the emperor. Seeing that his ambition was hard to pay, Li Bai was depressed and worried, so he had to drink every day to drown his sorrows. The woman was singing and dancing, while Tang and Yang Guifei were enjoying flowers and drinking in the garden. The prostitute is singing beside her, so it is not appropriate to play the same old tune. So he ordered Li Bai to write lyrics and songs in the back garden at once. The eunuch sent someone to find Li Bai's residence, and the owner said that he had gone to the hotel to drink. The eunuch had to send officials everywhere to look for Li Bai, and finally found him in a restaurant. At that time, Li Bai was so flushed that he couldn't take orders, so the eunuch had to arrange the staff to help him and carry him to the imperial garden. Seeing that Li Bai was drunk, Tang not only didn't blame him for being unreasonable, but personally mixed a bowl of hangover soup for him to drink and told him to rest for a while and then add new words. Unexpectedly, Li Bai picked up a pen and wrote on a piece of paper. Tang didn't add any words. When he picked it up, it turned out to be three songs. If it hadn't been for the first time in Yushan, I would have met the remote platform under the moon. Secondly, a red apricot is fragrant, and Wushan Yunyu is heartbroken. I asked who looked like the Han Palace, the poor swallow with new makeup. The third flower falls in love and smiles at the king, indicating that the spring breeze is infinitely hateful, and the agarwood pavilion leans against the railing in the north. The more I watched it, the more I liked it, so I gave it to Yang Guifei. Yang also fondle admiringly, sigh with emotion.

Besides, Yang and Gao Lishi were very jealous when they saw that Li Bai was favored. Moreover, Li Bai humiliated them in public, so they have always held a grudge and been looking for opportunities to retaliate and speak ill of Li Bai in front of the emperor. One day, Gao Lishi found that Yang Guifei was admiring three poems written by Li Bai again, so he played them out and paid tribute to the queen. Yang said that Li Bai is really a talented person, and he has learned a lot. Look how well written it is. After Gao Lishi heard this, maybe the Queen had never seen it. Yang felt strange and asked him what happened. Gao Lishi said insidiously, one or three songs will do. Look at this second song and think about it. Yang Guifei read, a piece of red apricot dew fragrance, heartbreaking. I asked who the Han Palace looked like, and the poor swallow leaned on her new makeup. Very good. No problem. Gao Lishi whispered that there was an allusion to the last two sentences. Gao said that the swallow in this sentence is a person, referring to the favorite princess Zhao of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. This Zhao is the most beautiful, has the ability to sink fish and fall geese, avoids the moon and feels ashamed of flowers, and can sing and dance well. What's more strange is that she is light and can dance on the palm of her hand, so Emperor Xian of Han loves her very much. Who knows that Yan has an old affair outside the uterus and often trysts with her. This matter was only kept from the emperor, and everyone else knew it, which became a joke in history. Gao Lishi saw that he had achieved his goal. When he left, he said that Li Bai was vicious. Why is Yang Guifei so angry? Because Zhao was almost like her, but Tang Gaozong put his love in one. Who knew that she was having an affair with An Lushan, which made Tang quietly put on a cuckold husband. Of course, I'm afraid there's only one person in Don who doesn't know about it. Isn't this Zhao alluding to her? It is this hatred for Li Bai, but Li Bai didn't mean it. It's just that Gao Lishi, the villain, is far-fetched, but Yang Guifei has dysentery. How could she not believe it? So she often said that Li Bai was arrogant and didn't keep etiquette in front of the emperor. At first, the emperor just smiled and ignored it. Later, in Gao Lishi, Yang Guifei, almost every day, said that Li Bai was wrong and Tang couldn't, and gradually alienated Li Bai. Li Bai is a clever man. She has seen that someone is setting him up, and she has long wanted to leave this trouble spot. It is now. So he volunteered to ask the court to leave. Tang naturally survived, but he thought that the relationship with the imperial concubine was not handled well and it was difficult to integrate. So he returned the gold, wrote eight words, drank in every square and paid in the library, which meant that wherever he went, as long as there was a hotel, he could drink and pay where he needed it. This is the deep affection from the son of heaven, and of course it is also an honor for Li Bai, but he didn't do it, but he still sent his love. This is the end of the story.
