In 815 AD, there was a murder case in the Tang Dynasty, and Prime Minister Wu Yuanheng was killed on his way to work in the morning.

Bai Juyi wrote a letter to the emperor on the same day, to the effect that this matter should be seriously investigated and Wu Yuanheng should be given justice.

this is basically nonsense.

But nonsense also has its uses. It is useless to catch the murderer, but useful to take revenge.

Some leaders were upset about Bai Juyi. At that time, he was a doctor who praised kindness. This is not his business. You are acting offside. You have finished all the nonsense. What do you want the leaders to say?

So the leader said to Bai Juyi, "Go away." Bai Juyi rolled to Jiangzhou, and his official position was Sima.

Later, it was written in Water Margin that Song Jiang was also sent to Jiangzhou. It seems that this place is really a place to send people.

In fact, among the poets in the Tang Dynasty, I like Bai Juyi's name best, which is taken from the golden mean "A gentleman lives in ease to wait for his fate, while a villain takes risks to wait for his destiny", which means that only when a gentleman cultivates himself and waits for his destiny will a villain take risks to get lucky. So his word is Lotte. Which means Lotte know life.

But I have to say that I'm sorry about Bai Juyi's name. He's overstepping his bounds, which means he's taking risks.

I ended up in Jiangzhou.

He can't be a Lotte know life here. He hates the bad environment, the yellow reed and bitter bamboo everywhere, the darkness and humidity, the lack of music, the folk songs and village flutes, and their ugliness. (and so remote is Jiujiang that I have heard no music, neither string nor bamboo, for a whole year. My quarters, near the River Town, are low and damp, with bitter reeds and yellowed rushes all about the house. And what is to be heard here, morning and evening?? The bleeding cry of cuckoos, the whimpering of apes. On flowery spring mornings and moonlit autumn nights, I have often taken wine up and drunk it all alone. Of course there are the mountain songs and the village pipes But they are crude and-strident, and grate on my ears. )

On the contrary, Liu Yuxi can be a happy know life. He studied folk songs in the process of being demoted and created the well-known Zhuzhici (the famous "sunrise in the east and rain in the west" obviously smells like folk songs)

Bai Juyi's complaints are not only here, he passed Li Bai's grave and complained "pitiful" But how unlucky the poet is, he will be inferior to you. "

This is about Li Bai and lamenting himself.

this time, his visit to Jiangzhou is rare.

When I sent my friend home in the evening, he was unhappy because there was no music when he was drinking. Just because I saw a woman who could play the pipa and listened to a tune played by others, I greatly lamented that this was the familiar melody (I felt as if my hearing were bright with fairymusic). The pipa woman described her joyful scenery in the past, which was also a smash hit, but now she is married to a businesswoman, and she is only lonely and deserted. "and sometimes in the deep of night she would dream of her triumphs, and be wakened from her dreams by the scalding of her tears" cried herself.

In fact, Bai Juyi also wrote a poem "Salt Merchant's Wife", which also describes a woman marrying a businessman. Unlike Pipa, she is very satisfied and proud of this life. Why are their attitudes so different? This is because the girl who came from a small family in Yangzhou, a small family in Yangzhou, is naturally satisfied to live a luxurious life. Pipa is different. Pipa is different.

Bai Juyi's heart is the same as that of a pipa girl. She is literary and sensitive. After listening to others, she sighs at herself and finally cries bitterly (this Jiujiang official. My blue sleeve was wet).

Even in the later Yuan Zaju, the story-maker arranged a love affair for Bai Juyi and Pipa girl, saying that they finally came together. This is nonsense, of course.

In fact, Bai Juyi's poem is about loneliness.

Why do Pipa girls talk to Bai Juyi so much at night? Because they are lonely.

Everyone has their own loneliness and desire to talk, but they may not understand when they talk to each other.

There is a saying, "When you meet someone, you can talk openly. You think this is open-mindedness, but in fact it is loneliness." Pipa girl belongs to this kind of loneliness, so she poured out her young scenery and loneliness now. But most of the time, it is casting pearls before swine when you pour out your loneliness to another person, because everyone's inner loneliness is different, and it is difficult to understand without the same situation. Even ridicule will be ushered in, which will only make loneliness more lonely.

Bai Juyi's loneliness and Pipa girl's loneliness caused * * * to sing, so he said "we are both unhappy -- to the sky's end, we meet. We understand. What does acquaintance matter?."

as long as we can talk to each other about our loneliness, that's enough.

In fact, Du Fu had a similar experience with Bai Juyi. Du Fu wrote "Watching Gong Sundaniang's Disciples Dancing Sword" in Kuizhou, and he also watched the dance and talked with the dancing women, remembering the prosperity of the past. Of course, Lao Du didn't sigh about personal things as much as Bai Juyi did, but he still wrote the kind of sadness of "meeting the monarch in the falling season".
