He is the most famous overseas returnee. He returned to Chengdu from abroad with his family at the age of 5. The post-10s generation started their own roaming journey of "the world is so big, I want to see it"!
He is the most talented poet and wrote countless poems in his life. There are more than 1,000 poems circulating today, and they are known as " Poetry Immortal "!
He is the most crazy drinker. Before drinking, he was a people in the Tang Dynasty, and after drinking, the universe is his toy! But people love him, who is arrogant after drinking!
He is the most mysterious swordsman. No one has ever seen his swordsmanship, but he can become a disciple of the "No. 1 swordsman of the Tang Dynasty" Pei Min , and gain countless fans with his name as a "chivalrous man"!
But who would have thought that these titles with supreme respect and respect from the world are just a kind of character he manages!
This person is Li Bai !
Looking at the five thousand years of Chinese history, no matter how you rank, Li Bai is definitely the one who will always sit in the C position!
From writing poetry to drinking, from swordsmanship to asking questions, he is a person who has been on the ranking list all year round.
The impression Li Bai gave to the world is a person who despises the officialdom, devotes his feelings to mountains and rivers, and likes to travel around the world and enjoy timely fun.
However, after reading the history prisoner Cheng Yifeng's book "5 Minutes of Hilarious Poems - Li Bai's Chapter", in the author's inventory of Li Bai's life, following the poetry works of Li Bai from different periods, he actually discovered a big secret!
tear off the disguise and remove the decoration. His seemingly unrestrained and passionate about mountains and rivers actually hides the ambition of "daring to be the imperial teacher"!
The rich man who shouted "I am born to be useful, and I will come back after spending all his money." He doesn't care about money all his life, but he only resents one thing.
The crazy man who sang "The flow of water falls straight down three thousand, and it is suspected that the Milky Way falls into the sky" was racking his brains to plan for the "great cause of succession" in a corner that outsiders cannot see.
The believer who bluntly said that "there will be a time when the wind and waves will be broken, and the clouds will sail across the vast ocean" acted as if he was disdainful of everything, while trying every means to make friends with powerful people who could win over.
This person is Li Bai!
Li Bai's contradictory state is because his wish from beginning to end is: Enter the government and live in the temple to become the emperor's teacher!
Don’t believe it? Then let us follow the prisoners of history and go to "5 Minutes of Hilarious Poetry - Li Bai's Chapter" to discover Li Bai's true face!
The first time I saw the "Prisoner of History" and thought I was a sensational little internet celebrity, but I never thought that the other party was a low-key big shot!
Prisoner of history, real name Cheng Yifeng, Jianghan Plain , graduated from Wuhan University , directly skipped the grade and took the doctorate of a 985 university with a bachelor's degree, and obtained a doctorate in history.
He has worked in serious news organizations such as Xinhua News Agency and "Sanlian Life Weekly ", which also inspired him to "write history with news methods".
As a former reporter and a historian today, Cheng Yifeng has written series of books such as the "Hormones" series, the "5-minute hilarious ancients" series, and the "Chinese History in Chat Groups".
Analyze and view ancient celebrities and major events from a contemporary perspective! For example, the protagonist of this issue - Li Bai!
Poetry Immortal Li Bai
In external concepts, Li Bai was named "Poetry Immortal" because he wrote too many familiar poems, and many of them have extremely high literary value. Later generations are so called this.
This is not the case. As early as Li Bai's prime, he was one of the extremely long-lived poets in ancient China. After the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, the first top scholar in Zhejiang Province has been recorded in the record-breaking period - He Zhizhang . He held his hand and praised "You are a poetic immortal who descended to earth!"
For this reason, Li Bai wrote a special poem to commemorate:
"There are crazy guests in the Siming Dynasty, and the romantic He Jizhen.
Chang'an When we met, we called me the legitimate immortal.
used to be a good cup, but now it is dust under the pineapple.
The golden tortoise changed the wine place, but he remembered the tears and stained the towel."
It can be seen that as early as when Li Bai was showing off everywhere, the title of "Legitimate Immortal" belonged to him.
Li Bai had a good relationship with He Zhizhang, which was an unexpected gain!
Because Li Bai was 41 years old at that time, and He Zhizhang was 83 years old, he was definitely a friend of his age!
He Zhizhang was a civil servant of the Tang Dynasty for 50 years and was appreciated by three prime ministers. The big boss 2 Wu Zetian and Tang Xuanzong also had a good impression of him.
He Zhizhang has endorsed by He Zhizhang, and Li Bai must be a good person in the eyes of these people. !
In addition, Meng Haoran , Wang Lun , Du Fu , Yuan Danqiu, Meng Shaofu and others all played a very important role in Li Bai's reputation and realizing his dream of becoming a career!
Carefully sorting out Li Bai's circle of friends, you will find that on the surface, from nobles to down-and-out beggars, he has made friends. But if you look closely, you will find that most people have official identities, or have relatives at home in the officialdom.
In order to achieve his grand career, Li Bai also took the initiative to submit resume shoes and self-recommendation poems to Han Chaozong and Zhang Hao . Unfortunately, at that time He is just a rookie who has just entered the workplace. He has no fame or background, and no one cares about him.
The cruel reality made Li Bai understand that if he wants to make a name, he must follow the acquaintance route - the introduction of acquaintances is more effective.
But before that, he must create a well-known name and a positive and positive personality to attract the attention of the official!
When the "Poet Immortal" was established, through Yuan Danqiu's recommendation, Li Bai met an important figure in the royal family - Princess Yuzhen , thus getting the opportunity to enter the palace to meet; and Meng Shaofu's threading needles allowed Li Bai to marry the granddaughter of the former prime minister...
It turns out that there are too many friends. It’s easy to leave!
Wine Fairy Li Bai
When it comes to Li Bai’s poems, his wine is definitely indispensable!
Guo Moruo once commented on Li Bai like this: When he is drunk, it is his most sober; when he is not drunk, it is his most confused time.
For Li Bai, every day of his life cannot be separated from two things: reciting poetry and drinking!
If Li Bai can only be excited after drinking, write poems that praise the world, and increase the halo effect of the "poetry fairy". Then, his career path is ultimately ruined by drinking.
can be said to drink when you succeed or fail!
The few highlight moments in Li Bai’s life are inseparable from the shadow of wine!
Li Bai's character of "Poet Immortal" was known by Emperor Xuanzong of Tang and Yang Guifei , and was recruited into the palace to write rainbow farts to these two bosses.
I didn’t expect to go looking for someone Li Guinian When he saw Li Bai, he looked drunk; when he was about to write Rainbow Fart for the imperial concubine, Li Bai still needed wine to refresh himself and stimulate inspiration!
Three songs " Qingping Tu " not only made the two bosses feel excited, but also gave Li Bai the opportunity to get the eunuch Gao Lishi to take off his boots, Yang Guifei grinding, and Tang Xuanzong's porridge feeding!
How many people can enjoy such glorious things from ancient times to the present?
This is the most proud and most prominent moment in Li Bai’s life!
Unfortunately, not long after this, Li Bai was "given back" by the boss for more than 300,000 yuan in breakup fees under the operation of the eunuch Gao Lishi and the prince-consort Zhang Ye .
After that, Li Bai began to travel around famous mountains and rivers, visit famous people and wise men, and join the team of seeking immortals and asking for Taoism.
The "legitimate immortal" has long seen through life and death. The earth can no longer bear him. How could he be obsessed with seeking immortals and asking questions?
Some people say that Li Bai was persistent in asking because Taoist , the head of Taoist , commonly known as Li Er . The Emperors of the Tang Dynasty also had the surname Li, and they regarded themselves as "descendants of Lao Tzu".
Li Bai is also a member of the Li family. He moved from 分类 when he was young and returned to Chengdu. The rich second generation is idle and has no trouble. Naturally, he has to find his ancestors and return to his hometown.
Some people also say that Li Bai was able to gain the appreciation of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang and Concubine Yang, which was completely recommended by fellow Taoists Yuan Danqiu, Princess Yuzhen, Wu Yun and others.
He has already tasted the sweetness and found a shortcut, so he will naturally continue to walk on this road!
No matter what the fundamental reason why Li Bai asked about the immortal, his purpose was no longer simple - assisting the emperor in making achievements, and then leaving the matter, becoming Li Bai's biggest goal.
and becoming the ultimate problem that entangles Li Bai’s life!
Madman Li Bai
Looking at Chinese history, Li Bai is definitely one of the few literati with distinct personality in Chinese history (poets are also literati, aren’t they)!
He has a wide range of social relationships and many friends. He seems to be traveling around, drinking and reciting poems all day long. In fact, these are all means of resolving his depression, or a way of disguising himself!
Li Bai, obsessed with the career path !
He has been seeking to become the emperor's right-hand man! Unfortunately, he ended up being "give gold and repaid"!
Although Li Bai's ultimate goal is to become the emperor's teacher, assist the emperor in creating his own great cause, and then retire from the temple after he succeeds and becomes famous. But ideals are full, reality is skinny.
Li Bai must not surrender or bend over in the face of reality again and again.
However, under any circumstances, Li Bai's arrogance never restrained at all!
This is his bottom line, his pride, and his capital!
From "I laughed out loud and went out, how could we be a weed man" to "How can we bow our heads and serve the powerful and unhappy people, so that I can't be happy", Li Bai's arrogant spirit is admirable and even more enviable!
He dared to always regard "being an imperial teacher and assisting the emperor" as his highest goal in life because he has this ability and strength!
He can use a poem to make the biggest boss of the Tang Dynasty bloom, or he can use a poem to mock the ugly reality... Whether it is praise or whip, Li Bai can escape unscathed.
After all, he has developed good skills and made himself his backer!
If you don’t believe it, let’s take a look at the evidence listed by the prisoners of history in "5 Minutes of Hilarious Poems - Li Bai Chapter"!
