/kloc-at the age of 0/0, he is proficient in calligraphy and history, and writes articles without any modification. Everyone said that he was full of scheming and wisdom, and was born a fairy, so he was also called Li Chenxian, calling himself a violet layman.
Li Bai likes drinking all his life and regards fame as dirt. He is determined to travel all over China, see all the famous mountains and rivers in the world, and taste all the fine wines and wines in the world. Climb Mount Emei, visit Yunmeng Mountain and live in seclusion in Culai Mountain and Zhuxi. Five people, including Kong, drank and wrote poems every day, named Zhu Xi. Li Bai heard that the wine in Wucheng, Huzhou is the best, and he traveled thousands of miles to Wucheng. In the hotel, he had a good time and no one was watching. At that time, a Sima with a compound surname passed by and heard Li Bai drinking and singing wildly, so he asked his men to ask who it was.
Li Bai casually replied a poem: "Qinglian lives at the top of the immortal, and the restaurant is famous for thirty years." Huzhou Sima why ask, Jin Su Tathagata is back. Dies Ma was surprised and asked, "Could it be Li Chenxian of Sichuan?" I've heard a lot about you for a long time. "Li Bai and I started talking and hit it off immediately. Before leaving, Sima asked, "A genius like you can easily become famous. Why not take the Chang 'an exam? "Li Bai replied:" At present, the government is chaotic and unfair, and the senior officials who go through the back door are generous, and the bribers are extremely rich. If they don't go through the back door and pay bribes, there will be people like Confucius and Mencius, and there is nothing they can do. So I drink and write poems all day, but I am not influenced by these cowardice. Sima Yejia said, "Even so, you are famous. No one knows that when you arrive in Chang 'an, someone will recommend you." Li Bai listened to Sima Yejia and came to Chang 'an.
One day, when I was playing in Zixiao Palace, I met He, a scholar of Hanlin. They are very speculative with each other, so he invited Li Bai to the hotel for a drink and sold the golden mink as a drink. He Zhangzhi asked Li Bai to move to his home so that he could talk about world affairs, drink and write poems. Second, Li Bai moved his luggage to He Jia, and they became sworn brothers from then on. Unconsciously, the exam date is approaching. He said: "The invigilator of this year's exam is Yang Guifei's brother Yang, and the invigilator is Lishi. Both of them love money like life. You have no money to bribe them. I'm afraid you can't pass the exam even with the best knowledge. I am familiar with these two people. I'll write them a letter. Maybe we can give them some face. " Although Li Bai has a noble temperament, in this case, he can only do as Zhang Zhi says.
He wrote a letter and sent it to Master Yang and Gao Shiliu. Yang and Gao Lishi read the letter and sneered: "He got his money, but he wrote an empty letter to please us. When I met Li Bai's paper on the day of the exam, I got rid of it regardless of the willy-nilly. " On March 3rd, all the talents in the world came to take the exam, and Li Bai was the first to hand it in? After reading the paper, Yang saw Li Bai's name on it. Without reading the content, he said, "Such a person only deserves to grind ink for me." Gao Lishi took it and said, "It's not suitable to grind ink, only to wear socks and take off boots." He ordered his men to expel Li Bai from the examination room.
After being teased by Yang and Gao Lishi, Li Bai was furious and returned to He's home, vowing, "If I succeed in the future, I must make Yang polish my ink and Gao Lishi take off my boots, so that I can get this tone." He Zhangzhi comforted Li Bai and said, "Don't worry, stay in my house for the time being, wait for him for three years, and when you take the exam again, you will definitely be admitted." He drank and wrote poems with Li Bai all day, and a year passed before he knew it.
Suddenly one day, an emissary from Bohai came to Chang 'an with credentials. What did the court send to meet and arrange the emissary? The next day, the ambassador presented his credentials to the court. Emperor Xuanzong summoned Hanlin. When he opened the book, he didn't even know a word. They all knelt on the ground and said, "This letter is all written by birds and animals. We have little knowledge and don't know a word. " Xuanzong asked Yang to have a look. When Yang opened it, his eyes were blind and he didn't know a word. Xuanzong sent a letter to the civil and military officials, but no one knew a word, let alone what was written in the letter. Xuanzong was very angry and cursed these useless ministers: "There are hundreds of civil and military officials, but none of them have a good education, and none of them can share their worries and solve problems for the country. I can't recognize this letter. How should I reply? How can I get the ambassador back?
Let them laugh at my Tang Dynasty, thinking that there is no one in my Tang Dynasty, and they will definitely invade my border. what can I do? The order is limited to 3 days, and if no one can know the meaning of the book, no salary will be paid; Within 6 days, if no one can know, they will all be dismissed; If you don't know the contents of the book within 9 days, you will be beheaded. Choose other ministers to protect Datang River? "Imperial edict mountain, civil and military officials are silent, no one dare to speak. Xuanzong is more troubled. He returned home and told all this to Li Bai. Li Bai sneered slightly: "It's a pity that I didn't pass the exam last year and I can't help the son of heaven." He Zhangzhi was surprised and immediately asked, "It seems that you are very knowledgeable, and you will definitely know this book. I will protect you in front of the emperor. The next day, He reported to Xuanzong: "There is a scholar in my family named Li Bai, who is knowledgeable. If you want to know Shu Fan, he is the only one. Xuanzong was overjoyed, so he sent his ministers to He's house and asked Li Baifeng to go to the temple. "。
Li Bai said to Zhao Xuan, the minister, "I, Li Bai, am an insignificant ordinary person with no talent or knowledge. There are many bureaucrats in the imperial court, all of whom are learned people. Why should I ask someone like me for advice? I dare not obey the imperial edict, for fear of offending the court dignitaries. " The minister told Xuanzong about it. Xuanzong also said to He, "Li Bai refused to serve the imperial edict. What does he mean? " He replied: "I know that Li Bai's articles are unparalleled and knowledgeable." Just because last year, in the examination room, he was criticized by the examiner and was kicked out of the house. Today, let him worship the son of heaven as an ordinary person, and he feels guilty. Ask the emperor to give him a title and send another minister, and he will be summoned. " Xuanzong said, "I agree. Give Li Bai a Jinshi and wear a purple robe and a gold belt. Please go to see Li Bai in person, and you must not refuse. " He Zhangzhi received the imperial edict, returned home, invited Li Bai to read some books, and told Li Bai about Xuanzong's thirst for wisdom. Li Bai wore a royal purple robe and a gold belt and rode into North Korea with him. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty is waiting for the arrival of Li Bai. When he met Li Bai, he was as poor as a treasure, as dark as a lamp and as hungry as food. He quickly said, "Is there any letter that anyone can understand now, so I hereby announce your coming, hoping you can share your worries." Li Bai thanked me and bowed down and said, "I was rejected by the Taishi because of my shallow knowledge, and Gao Taiwei kicked me out of the examination room." I am a criticized useless scholar. I can't satisfy the examiner. How can we satisfy the emperor? "Xuanzong said," I know you very well. Please don't refuse. "Just ask the courtiers to show this letter to Li Bai. Li Bai read it once, sneered slightly, and translated a fluent and creditable Chang 'an dialect in front of civil and military officials. In fact, the letter is also very simple. It is nothing more than warning Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty not to invade again and asking Xuanzong to cede 176 cities to South Korea. If he doesn't promise, he will rise up against it.
After listening to Li Bai's recitation, the civil and military officials were shocked and looked at each other. Hearing this, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty looked unhappy and sad. After thinking for a long time, he asked the civil and military officials, "Now that soldiers are going to seize North Korea, what good ways can they repel the enemy?" Civil and military officials are like clay sculptures, and no one dares to answer. He Kaikai said: "Since Emperor Taizong conquered North Korea three times, I don't know how many people were killed or injured and how much property was consumed, but none of them won. Fortunately, Gai Suwen died, and several sons of Gai Suwen killed each other for power and interests, which gave us a chance. Emperor Gaozong sent Li Bin. Xue commanded a million troops, wiped out North Korea and brought it to its knees. Now the world is at peace, there has been no war for many years, and there are neither good generals nor good soldiers. If you fight, it's hard to say whether you can win. I don't know when it will be peaceful. I hope the emperor can learn from it. " Xuanzong asked, "How should I answer?" He said, "The emperor can ask Li Bai. He must be good at rhetoric." Xuanzong summoned Li Bai and asked how to reply. Li Bai said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will call the ambassador tomorrow, and I will answer him face to face, also in the words of birds and animals. The words in the letter will definitely humiliate the fans, and they must know the majesty of the Tang Dynasty and surrender. " Xuanzong asked, "Who is poisonous?" Li Bai said: "The custom of this place in Bohai Sea is to call their King Kedu, just as Uighurs call their King Khan, King Zapp of Turpan, King Liu Zhao and King Simo of Hu Ling, which are all different customs in different places." Xuanzong saw that Li Bai was comfortable and gushed. On the same day, Li Bai was named a bachelor of Hanlin and hosted a banquet for Li Bai. Li Bai also had no scruples and drank himself to death.
In the early morning of the next day, Li Bai was drunk and was urged to enter the DPRK by imperial court officials. After the officials arrived in court, Xuanzong summoned Li Bai to the temple, only to find that Li Bai's face was still full of alcohol and his eyes were still hazy. Xuanzong asked the chef to get three bowls of fish soup with Chinese sauerkraut from the hangover and personally mixed the soup for Li Bai. Li Bai knelt down and drank the soup, and suddenly felt refreshed. Officials were overjoyed to see that the emperor attached importance to Li Bai. Only Yang and Gao Lishi were extremely uncomfortable and showed contempt. In a short time, Xuanzong summoned Li Bai, the envoy, dressed in a purple robe, with a gauze hat fluttering and fluttering, standing under the big pillar on the left, holding a letter in his hand and reading aloud, which was sonorous and melodious. I am surprised that an expert from nowhere is so proficient in our Chinese characters. Just as he was amazed, Li Bai's clear voice came: "How dare a small country be so rude and despise me in the Tang Dynasty?" . The emperor is wise and generous and doesn't care about villains. Now the emperor has a letter here, please listen carefully. "The country's envoys trembled and knelt down on the steps. Xuanzong told him to put a Qibao bed next to the memorial, prepare a white jade inkstone, like a rabbit hair brush, a grass dragon scented ink and five-color golden flower stationery. Tell Li Bai to sit on the throne and write letters on the brocade pier. Li Bai said, "My boots are not clean. I'm afraid they will stain the mat. Please be merciful and give me a gift to take off my boots and tie my socks. " Xuanzong agreed and asked a servant to take off Li Bai's boots. Li Bai added, "I have a word. I beg the emperor to forgive my arrogance before I dare to say it." Xuanzong said, "No matter what you say, I won't blame you. "Li Bai just adjusted her clothes and said," Last time Tai Shiyang failed in the exam, he was expelled from the examination room by Taiweigao.
Seeing the two of them here today, I am mentally deficient. I sincerely hope that the emperor will tell Master Yang to hold the inkstone and grind ink for me, and Qiu Gao Lishi will take off my boots and tie my socks for me. Only in this way can I be full of energy, write a letter stroke by stroke, and complete the tasks assigned by the emperor stroke by stroke. "Xuanzong think this is a bit too much, but it is not good to say more when employing people, so he has to point out the point, which is called" holding the inkstone and lifting it, and Gao Lishi takes off his boots ". Yang and Gao Lishi know very well that this is Li Bai's favorite way to hold the emperor to make the princes? It's a good thing I got back at them both In desperation, I dare not disobey the emperor, dare to be angry and dare not speak, so I have to obey the imperial decree.
Li Bai was elated at this moment. Gao Lishi took off his boots and put socks on Li Bai. Li Bai climbed onto the mattress and sat on the brocade pier. Yang tried to grind ink beside several cases, and stood by to serve after grinding ink. Li Bai put a beard with his left hand? The son combed it, picked up Zhongshan Rabbit's brush in his right hand and splashed it on Wuhua plain paper. It's really amazing, sweeping the three armies. After a while, I wrote a horrible book. I saw that the calligraphy and painting were neat and presented to Xuanzong. Xuanzong was shocked to see it. It's all books. He doesn't know a word. When he handed them over to the officials, everyone was frightened. Xuanzong asked Li Bai to recite it, and Li Bai recited a scary book before the throne. The content is nothing more than that the Tang Dynasty will be brave and good at fighting, rich in materials and outstanding in people. How many small countries paid tribute to the Tang Dynasty? A small country in the Bohai Sea was just a county in the Tang Dynasty compared with the Tang Dynasty. I hope the Bohai Sea can be poisonous. I don't want to be bound and laughed at. Xuanzong was very happy and asked Li Bai to read it to the ambassador. Li Bai told Gao Lishi to put on his boots and then went down to the temple by himself. Call the ambassador and reread the horror book against the ambassador. After reading the sonorous rhyme, he made Nuo Nuo passive and forward-looking many times, so he had to bid farewell to Xuanzong and return to China. When he sent the emissary out of Beijing, the official secretly asked him, "Who was the man who just saw the imperial edict?" He replied, "My surname is Li, and I am an official of Hanlin." The envoy asked again, "How old is the academician's bachelor's officer, who can ask the master to hold the inkstone and the captain to take off his boots?" He smiled and said, "A surname is a minister, and Qiu is the emperor's confidant minister. At best, they can only be regarded as rich and famous in the world, but that bachelor Li Bai sponsored the fairy arrival in the Tang Dynasty. Who else can compare with him? " The ambassador nodded repeatedly, then returned to his own country and told the king all his missions in the Tang Dynasty. When the king opened his credentials, he was surprised and called his ministers to discuss. With the help of the gods, how could the Tang Dynasty compete with them? So I wrote an order, preferring to pay tribute every year and come to Korea every year.
Xuanzong admired Li Bai more and wanted to give him official titles and titles. Li Bai began to say, "I don't want to be an official. I just want to be free and unrestrained, drink and write poems with the emperor every day, and do my best for the emperor. " Hearing this, Xuanzong said, "Since you don't want to be an official, you can choose my gold, white jade and pearl agate." Li Bai said, "I don't want any treasure either. I hope I can wait on the emperor every day and drink more wine. " Xuanzong knew that Li Bai was lofty and unwilling. Since then, Li Bai has been with Xuanzong all day, never leaving. Even in the evening, he often left Li Bai to stay in the Golden Palace and asked Li Bai for advice on how to govern the country.
Xuanzong and Li Bai became closer and more common sense, which made Yang Hegao very angry. Yang and Gao Lishi always wanted to find an opportunity to drive Li Bai out of the palace gate, but when they didn't have the opportunity, they sent people to follow Li Bai everywhere, trying to find some excuses to alienate the relationship between Xuanzong and Li Bai. Finally, one day, Gao Lishi found his chance. He said to Yang Yuhuan, the favorite princess of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, "Li Bai recently wrote a song" Qing Ping Diao "for the queen:' A red incense is heartbreaking. Excuse me, who looks like Han Palace? Poor swallow leans on red makeup. Is this Zhao a pet of Emperor Han Chengdi? The princess was put in the cold by the emperor because of her moral corruption. Now Li Bai compares the queen to Zhao Yanfei, which is a slander on the queen. Why doesn't the queen think about it? "It turned out that Yang and An Lushan had a very good relationship at that time, and Gao Lishi's words just hit Yang's heart. Therefore, Yang Guifei bears a grudge against Li Bai, and often says that Li Bai is frivolous, alcoholic and arrogant in front of Xuanzong. Xuanzong saw that the imperial concubine didn't like Li Bai. He didn't invite Li Bai to the palace to drink, nor did he invite Li Bai to spend the night in the Golden Palace. Gradually, he felt alienated.
Li Bai knew in his heart that Yang and Gao Lishi had slandered him, and he didn't care. Li Bai, who was more addicted to drinking poetry, made friends with He, Li, Wang Fu, Cui Zongzhi, Zhang Xu and Jiao Sui, and was called "drinking". Li Bai repeatedly asked Tang Xuanzong to return to his hometown. Xuanzong really liked Li Bai in his heart, but Yang Guifei got in the way. Li Bai is well aware of the ups and downs of Guanhai. He hopes to leave Chang 'an, a place of right and wrong, one day earlier and sincerely expresses his resignation. When Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty saw that Li Bai was determined to leave Chang 'an, he summoned Li Bai and asked, "If you aim high, you can go back to your hometown first, and I will call you back to Chang 'an later. You have made great contributions to our Tang Dynasty, so you can't go back empty-handed. If you have any requirements, just ask. " Li Bai kowtowed and thanked him, "I don't ask for anything, just for a drink from time to time." Xuanzong gave Li Bai a gold plaque, which read: "Give Li Bai a free trip to study and a carefree scholar. He drinks when he meets a hotel and takes money when he meets an official. The government will give him more than 1000 yuan, and the county will give him more than 500 yuan. If all civil and military officials violate it, it will be punished as a violation of the imperial edict. "He also gave Li Bai 1000 two pieces of gold, a robe and jade belt, a golden saddle and a dragon horse, and his twenty people. Li Bai kowtowed to thank the emperor, and Xuanzong gave Li Bai two golden flowers and three cups of royal wine. All the officials in the Qing Dynasty were given leave for nothing. Seven people, including He Wei, refused to leave. They were sent hundreds of miles away. It was not until three days later that the Seven Immortals broke up with Li Bai in tears.
