This allusion actually comes from Li Bai's "Celebrating Prison with Wine". Li Bai came to Chang 'an, Kyoto for the first time, met the famous poet He, and presented his poem "Difficult Road to Shu". After reading it, He was very surprised. He called Li Bai an immortal, which means a fairy who fell from the sky. And invited Li Bai to the hotel to drink, and took off the scarab he was wearing as the money to sell wine.
Li Bai was deeply influenced by Huang Lao's thought of building a new countryside. Li Taibai's poems have been handed down from generation to generation, and most of his poems were written when he was drunk. His representative works include Looking at Lushan Waterfall, it is hard to go, Difficult Road to Shu, Entering Wine, Fu Zhi, First Sending to Baidicheng, etc. Li Bai's ci and fu were praised by Song people, and Li Bai's ci enjoys a high status in terms of its pioneering significance and artistic achievements.
