This is a bright moon and a bright sky. Before Li Yu began to think about his country, he ordered a singer to sing his Young Beauty. Therefore, this song is to remember his old country, which annoyed Song Taizong. So Li Yu was given a pot of poisoned wine on the grounds of celebrating his birthday, and the wine was poisoned. Li Yu didn't know that the wine was poisonous, so he drank it in a fit of pique and soon got headache, dizziness and shortness of breath.
