There are two paragraphs like this in Pipa Xing. The first paragraph: I am seeing guests off by the Xunyang River, and the maple leaves and rushes rustle in autumn. I, the host, have dismounted, my guest has boarded his boat, and we raise our cups, hoping to drink-but, alas, there is no music. Although we drank a lot of wine, we were not happy. When we were leaving each other, the river mysteriously widened in the direction of the full moon. We heard a sudden sound, a guitar crossed the water, the host forgot to go home and the guests left.
This is a passage from Bai Juyi's seeing guests off in Jiangtou, Xunyang on autumn night. The cold wind blows the maple leaves and reeds, and the autumn sounds whisper. He got off the horse and held a farewell party on the boat. He just raised his glass and drank. Although he found that there was no toast to Song, he was even sadder after drinking wine. When he left, the river reflected the bright moon at night. Suddenly I heard the crisp sound of pipa on the river; He forgot what he heard, and the returning guests didn't want to leave.
The second paragraph: Her first guitar note made me sigh. Now, after listening to her story, I feel even sadder. We were all unhappy until the end of the day, when we met. We understand. What is the relationship between acquaintances? ! A year ago, I left the capital and came here. Now I am a sick Jiujiang exile.
Listening to the cry of pipa, I have already shook my head and sighed; It makes me sad to hear her talk again. We are all sad people who have fallen to the end of the world; Why do you ask if you have seen it before when you meet today? Since leaving the bustling capital Chang' an last year; He was relegated to Xunyang River and often fell ill.
These two paragraphs embody Bai Juyi's recollection of the past. He used to be an official in Beijing, but now he has been demoted to this small place and is still suffering from illness. I suddenly felt sad when I heard the familiar sound of Kyoto pipa. Listen to the story of the pipa girl, right? Therefore, Bai Juyi was the first person who "didn't know the meaning of the song at first, and then he was already in the song".
