I. Appreciation
Focusing on his own life experience and communication with Wei Liangzai, the poet expresses his political feelings heartily, and expresses his anxiety and anger about his own situation and troubled times by writing about the past and the present.
Second, the writing background
The poet was exiled to Yelang because of the defeat of the eternal king, and was forgiven halfway. This poem was written after he was pardoned. At this time, when I met an old friend like Wei Liangzai, Li Bai's feelings were of course deep. The strongest of them is that he changed from an old singer to a rogue, while the other party changed from an ordinary magistrate to a famous town. One of the primary reasons is that Wei Liangzai made a different choice from Li Bai in the turmoil.
Facing his old friends, Li Bai not only described the whole story of their communication, but also told them that he went north to Youzhou to explore the truth of the Anshi Rebellion before the turmoil. This is the same reason as the following interpretation of the curtain of the eternal king, and it is also to eliminate the misunderstanding of old friends and show their innocence in political attitude.
