Cui Hao's works, both in quantity and quality, are hard to compare with such superb poets as Li Bai, Du Fu and Wang Wei. However, this seven-rhythm poem is so brilliant that even Li Bai, who has always been proud, has to gasp in admiration. "There was a landscape in front of him, on which Cui Hao wrote a poem."
It is rumored that Li Bai boarded the Yellow Crane Tower and was eager to write a poem. However, when he saw Cui Hao's poems, he was surprised and wrote two sentences full of regret and praise.
It is also because of Li Bai that Cui Hao's poems have risen to a higher level invisibly.
In the list of Tang poems compiled by Wang Zhaopeng, it even ranked first, and Li Bai contributed a lot.
The origin of Li Bai and the Yellow Crane Tower goes beyond this.
He once bid farewell to Meng Haoran, the great poet whom he admired most in his life. "An old friend resigned from the Yellow Crane Tower, and the fireworks went down to Yangzhou in March. Lonely sails sail to the blue sky and only look at the Yangtze River in the sky. " The first two sentences are romantic and beautiful, and the last two sentences are full of elegance and agility, without the sadness of general farewell poems, which is unique throughout the ages.
In his later years, he was implicated in the Wang Yong incident, exiled Yelang, went to Jiangxia, boarded the Yellow Crane Tower, and wrote an extremely sad song "Listening to the Yellow Crane Tower with Shi Lang and Zhong Qin".
"The Jade Emperor blows the Yellow Crane Tower, and plum blossoms fall into the river in May." Endless sadness is unbearable to read.
These are two of the most famous seven-character quatrains written by Li Bai in the Yellow Crane Tower. One is bright and lively, the other is desolate and euphemistic, which represents Li Bai's mood in different periods.
What many people don't know, however, is that in addition to these two poems, he also wrote another poem in the Yellow Crane Tower, which was arrogant from beginning to end.
This poem is called "Answer Ding Eighteen after Drunk, Break the Yellow Crane Tower with Poetry".
As can be seen from the title of the poem, there was a man named Ding who mocked Li Bai, and Li Bai himself was a proud man. Even Li Yong, who was famous all over the world at that time, dared to cynically say that "I am afraid of the afterlife, and my husband is not small", let alone a nobody like Ding, who was eighteen years old.
In addition, he was drunk at that time, so he wrote this extremely arrogant poem, which was also enjoyable after reading it.
The first six sentences of the poem are written on the surface of the Yellow Crane Tower, but people feel the arrogance and arrogance that only belongs to Li Bai.
The Yellow Crane Tower was smashed, and the yellow Crane Immortal had nothing to rely on, so he went to heaven and cried to the jade emperor, who ignored it and put it back in Jiangnan.
Jiangnan prefect redecorated the Yellow Crane Tower, and the newly painted wall still exudes fragrance.
The Yellow Crane Tower has magical colors, and it is said that someone once ascended to heaven by the Yellow Crane here.
In Li Bai's novels, he broke the fairy-like Yellow Crane Tower, but his bold behavior was not punished by the Jade Emperor.
The implication is that he is bigger than the so-called yellow crane, and his arrogance is beyond words.
