When Li Shangyin was twenty-five years old, he was recommended as a Jinshi by Linghu Chu's son Linghu Gui. Soon after Linghu Chu died, he gained the respect of Wang Maozhi, who married his daughter to him. Because Wang Maozhi was an important figure in the Li Party, Li Shangyin was unable to extricate himself from the partisan struggle between Niu and Li, and was extremely frustrated in the officialdom. This song "Le Youyuan" is a true portrayal of his depressed mood.
