In life, you will always be deceived once.
The poet Li Bai was also deceived!
Strangely, he also happily wrote a poem that touched the world in 1269.
What is going on, and let me tell you slowly.
1
Li Bai will also be deceived!
Li Bai is a person who loves to travel.
He has been to Shandong, traveled to Lushan, Tiantai Mountain in Zhejiang, and swam in the mountains and rivers of Xiangyang.
In the fourteenth year of Tianbao (755), Li Bai heard that the scenery in southern Anhui was good, and came to Xuancheng with the intention of visiting.
At this time, an enthusiastic Anhui person sent a letter.
Li Bai opened it and looked at it, and it read:
There are ten miles of peach blossoms here, and there are 10,000 hotels here.
When Li Bai saw it, he was so excited, there was wine and peach blossoms, all of which were Li Bai's favorites.
This is a place called Peach Blossom Pond.
Li Bai arrived, and a man received him.
He is Wang Lun.
"Brother Taibai, I'm your fan. It's great that you're here. ”
Li Bai was very excited: "I can't wait to see ten miles of peach blossoms and ten thousand hotels right away." Brother Wang, please lead the way. ”
Wang Lun said indifferently: "Ten miles of peach blossoms refers to the peach blossom pool. Wanjia Hotel is a store owner surnamed Wan, not 10,000 hotels. ”
This is blatant deception!
Li Bai looked at Wang Lun, but laughed: "Interesting and interesting." ”
Wang Lun deceived Li Bai, but Li Bai was not angry, he liked this interesting person.
Wang Lun enthusiastically became a tour guide, and took Li Bai to see the beautiful scenery of Jing County and drink all the good wine in Jing County.
made a new friend, and Li Bai was overjoyed.
There is no feast in the world that will not be dispersed.
Jing County is not Li Bai's hometown, nor is it a dream land, he will leave after all.
On this day, Li Bai was about to leave by boat.
Why didn't Wang Lun come?
Li Bai was a little reluctant in his heart, but he understood his friend: "He must have something." ”
The boat was about to leave, and Li Bai was a little reluctant.
Suddenly, he heard someone singing on the shore.
It's Wang Lun.
Wang Lun came to see Li Bai off.
All kinds of reluctance are only in the words.
Li Bai was very moved, and he immediately chanted a poem:
Li Bai was about to go on a boat, and suddenly heard the sound of singing on the shore.
The Peach Blossom Lake is thousands of feet deep, not as deep as Wang Lun to send me love.
So straightforward, yet affectionate.
Everyone knows what happened next.
"Gift to Wang Lun" has become a famous article through the ages, and has even been selected into primary school textbooks, becoming a classic Tang poem known to women and children.

It's Wang Lun.
Wang Lun came to see Li Bai off.
The last two sentences are the most praised.
The water of Peach Blossom Lake is as deep as a thousand feet, but it can't compare to Wang Lun's affection for me.
Invisible affection is turned into a tangible metaphor, natural and true.
Peach Blossom Pond is beautiful, use it to set off friendship, warm and beautiful, perfect combination, complement each other.
Every time I read "Gift to Wang Lun", I will be amazed and moved.
Amazing Li Bai's talent.
This poem is sung out of mouth, there are no profound allusions, no obscure words, but it is good.
The words are simple and affectionate.
The simpler, the more timeless.
Comments from future generations of scholars:
"Tang Poetry Note": Separate places, different feelings, the feeling of reading is eloquent, and the words are natural, not fake, not too white immortals.

Equality is the biggest charm of "Gift to Wang Lun".
Li Bai has many friends and writes a lot of poems to his friends.
He wrote to Meng Haoran and said: I love Master Meng, and I am known all over the world.
He once listened to the flute with Shi Langzhong in the Yellow Crane Tower and wrote: Plum blossoms fall in May in Jiangcheng.
He also swam across Dongting Lake with the Jiashe people, and wrote: And on the moonlight in Dongting, the boat will buy wine and white clouds.
can give so many works to friends, but they are not as popular as "Gift to Wang Lun".
Liushen Lei Lei has this to say about "Gift to Wang Lun":
The most touching thing about this poem is not friendship, but the other two words - equality.
A Li Bai and a Wang Lun are all names that appear equally in the poem, simple, straightforward, sincere, and true, not "Li Jun", not "Wang Gong", not "Meng Fuzi", not "Gao Gaocheng", or the two most simple names, like white clouds and black soil.
Wang Lun came to send it, Li Bai was very happy, this is the whole content of the poem, there is no social identity at all, there is no fame, there is no pandering, there is no compliment, everyone is completely equal in personality.
Poetry is so.
I finally understand why I feel different every time I read "Gift to Wang Lun".
Simplicity and timelessness are one thing.
On the other hand, it is the kind of equality and sincerity between friends.
He is Li Bai, facing the emperor, and also used to be his sexual self.
He was famous all over the world and was a poet admired by everyone.
Now, facing Wang Lun, he is just an ordinary friend.
That year, there was a man named Li Bai who made friends with Wang Lun, and they had a happy time, nothing more.
Perhaps, this is why "Gift to Wang Lun" is still touching the world 1269 years after it came out.
Equal and sincere friendship is what everyone yearns for.
This was true 1,200 years ago, and it is still true 1,200 years later.
