Li Bai had been living in Sichuan in his early years, where he received a good education, but after completing his studies, he did not take the imperial examination. This is very strange, the ancient readers, after ten years of hard reading, is nothing more than hoping that one day, they can change their fate through the imperial examination. For this reason, there is "Asagiri Tianshe lang, Twilight Heavenly Son Hall." "At first, he may still be working in the field in the morning, just an authentic peasant, but in the afternoon he climbed the Golden Ruan Hall, became a courtier of the emperor, and lived the life he wanted from then on."
Regarding Li Bai's failure to participate in the imperial examination, many experts and scholars have given different opinions, believing that Li Bai's origin is unknown, and some people infer that he is a descendant of Li Jiancheng, but there is no strong evidence, just speculation. Then I personally believe that Li Bai did not take the imperial examination, it may be that his father is a businessman, after all, the imperial examination is not for everyone to participate in, there are still some requirements; and Li Bai's father is a businessman, doomed Li Bai can not go to the imperial examination like normal people.
Although Li Bai did not take the imperial examination, he was talented, could write poetry, and was very famous at that time, so Tang Xuanzong demoted talents in an eclectic manner, and issued an edict in the first year of Tianbao, allowing Li Bai to quickly enter Beijing (Chang'an). At that time, after Li Bai received the edict, he was very excited, and also wrote a poem "Nanling Bei Children Enter beijing", in which Li Bai can be described as proud of the spring breeze, not only expressing a lofty life ambition, but also very proud, of which there are two sentences: "Laugh at the sky and go out, my generation is a basil person." "It can be said that it is a popular population, writing a unique personality of Li Bai.
After Li Bai arrived in Chang'an, Tang Xuanzong actually did not reuse him, but let him write poems to please himself, which made Li Bai very angry, so after writing several poems praising Yang Guifei, he suddenly satirized Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei in his works. Some people who liked to pat themselves on the back grabbed and began to frame Li Bai, for which Tang Xuanzong was greatly angered, and he took back the gold given to him, and never reused it.
Tang Xuanzong's words can be said to have completely ruined Li Bai's future, and he could only choose to leave Chang'an, and this incident dealt a lot of blows to Li Bai. But Li Bai is Li Bai, unlike others, although his life is at a low ebb, he is still arrogant, maintains the unique style and bone of the literati, and wrote the popular group poem "Walking Difficulty", in this group of poems, Li Bai showed a tenacious character, especially the first one, two of which were also regarded as the most reasonable words by countless people.
Golden bottle sake bucket ten thousand, jade plate zhen shame straight ten thousand dollars.
Stopping the cup and throwing the spoon can not eat, drawing the sword and looking around at a daze.
If you want to cross the Yellow River Ice Plug River, you will climb the Taihang Snow Mountain.
Idle to fish on the Bixi, suddenly take a boat to dream of the day.
It is difficult to walk, it is difficult to walk, how wrong is it, and now it is safe?
Long winds and waves will sometimes hang directly on the clouds and sails to the sea.
When Li Bai was writing this poem, he just had a group of friends to send him off, and everyone was very disappointed at the banquet, but after a few glasses of wine, Li Bai suddenly felt it and used this poem to motivate himself. In the first four sentences, in fact, there is still a faint sadness; in front of you is fine wine, the price of a bucket can be worth a thousand gold, and the jade plate contains delicious dishes worth ten thousand dollars. But I had no appetite, stopped the chopsticks in my hand, pulled out the sword I was wearing, and looked around in a daze.
The four sentences in the middle are written in the current situation, because there is no foothold in Chang'an, suffered exclusion, had to leave Chang'an, at this time Li Bai's heart is very bitter, but there is nothing he can do; he wants to cross the Yellow River, but there is a layer of ice on it, it is impossible to cross, want to climb the Taihang Mountain, but it is all white snow, it is difficult to climb to the top of the mountain. I want to learn Jiang Ziya, go fishing by the creek, live a leisurely life, and I also want to learn Yi Yin's dreaming, passing through the sunrise place and enjoying the beautiful scenery there.
"It's hard to walk, it's hard to walk, it's a lot of wrong, and now it's safe?" The road of life is very difficult, how difficult is it? Where are the wrong paths? A sentence "difficult to walk" can be described as Li Bai's embarrassing situation, there is also a sense of helplessness, although talented, but Li Bai is not so lucky, the heart is extremely sad, so these few sentences can best reflect Li Bai's lonely state of mind, as well as the feeling of reality.
Of course, the most amazing thing about this poem is the last two sentences: "Long winds and waves will sometimes hang directly on the clouds and sails to the sea." Although the previous has been describing personal sorrow, as well as the feeling of life, but in these two sentences, it is a sudden turn of the pen, more is to express an open-minded attitude to life; we must believe that the opportunity to ride the wind and waves will always come, and at that time, we will set sail, we will be able to cross the sea, and one day we will stand on a high place and realize all our life wishes.
Li Bai is a great poet, in his poems, in fact, you can feel that profound philosophy everywhere, and the last two sentences in this poem are the most touching. Especially for the lost people, it is a kind of comfort, no matter how bad life is, we must persist, which is exactly what Li Bai wants to tell the world, so such a work is most worth reading, as long as we understand it, we will definitely gain something.
