Li Bai is drunk (network map)
Du Fu once wrote "The Eight Immortals Song of Drinking", in which Li Bai said: "The son of heaven called him out of the boat and called himself Brewmaster." Yes, Li Bai after drinking is so wild. At this time, Li Bai's unruly light is admirable. There is wine everywhere in Li Bai's life, and he can't live without it all the time. He was alone in the flowers, in pavilions, feasting in the palace and drinking in a lonely boat. Li Bai is drinking when he is proud or when he is down and out. It seems that drinking has gone deep into Li Bai's soul. As long as there is wine, Li Bai can be happy.
"Drinking" is the best interpretation of Li Bai's drinking all his life. When he was happy, he suggested that people drink "Oh, let a man with spirit take risks where he likes, and don't point his golden cup at the moon! "When he was lonely, he also advised people to drink." The sober people and saints in the old days were forgotten, and only great drinkers can be immortalized. " And he likes to invite many people to drink, and everyone is very excited. "Give them to that boy for good wine, and I will be worried forever when I am with you." Li Bai is not a human being, he is a fallen immortal, he just came from heaven for a holiday, so the life on earth is out of tune with him, so the prosperity of the world is abandoned by him, and only after drinking white can he return to his own world, so that he can have a free and easy life, such as "getting drunk and floating in the princes" and "being proud of his life and drinking high-rise buildings". So Li Bai spent his whole life with wine, half drunk and half awake.
One hundred poems by Li Bai
During the Tang Dynasty, especially in its heyday, many scholars liked drinking very much. For this reason, Du Fu personally created a famous Eight Immortals of Drinking, which mentioned that Li Bai's poems were described as "100 poems of Li Bai fighting for wine", and some people said that it was "100 poems of Li Bai fighting for wine." Although there are different opinions, they all show that Li Bai is brilliant, and drinking and writing poems is even more famous in the world.

Du Fu's "Song of Drinking" takes drinking as the theme, and contacted eight famous poets at that time, including He He, Zuo Prime Minister Li and so on. These people drink very much, even worse than Li Bai. So what Du Fu wants to focus on here is not whether Li Bai can drink, but Li Bai's poetic talent and heroism. Du Fu wrote, "There are hundreds of poems about fighting wine", and the time for drinking a barrel of wine can be written.
Look at Du Fu's description: "The son of heaven called instead of getting on the boat and called himself Brewmaster." When the emperor summoned him, he even got his clothes ready and went, saying it was Brewmaster. Is this a heroic act that ordinary people can do? It can be seen that Li Bai did not give in to the powerful and heroic. Li Bai just slept in a restaurant after drinking, which shows that he was relaxed and casual. The key point here is not how much Li Bai drank, but his talent of writing poems while drinking, and his free and easy heroism.
Then the problem is coming. Although the two statements have similar meanings, did Du Fu write "fighting" or "fighting for wine" at that time? Generally speaking, the original text is now considered as "100 poems by Li Bai", but another way of saying it is that later generations regard it as a poem.
Li Bai drinks the bright moon alone
Li Bai, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, has never had a smooth career. In 744, the third year of Tianbao, Li Bai, who was originally an academician, was vilified in front of the emperor and eventually moved away from the political center. Li Bai, who was frustrated in the officialdom, was heartbroken and could not get rid of his anguish, so he wrote the poem "Drinking the Bright Moon Alone", which is a masterpiece throughout the ages.

In fact, Drinking the Bright Moon Alone is a group of poems. There are four poems in a poem, but most people only know that the first one is the most popular. The first poem in this group was written in a lyrical way because Li Bai, a poet at that time, was excluded, lost his official position and felt lonely and sad. The poet magnified the lonely scenery, further highlighted his loneliness and helplessness, and at the same time expressed the poet's ambition of not following the crowd and his bohemian and independent personality.
The second poem in the group, Drinking the Bright Moon Alone, is a poem about the theme. The poet runs through the whole poem with the word "love wine", which shows from the beginning that no one can not love wine, even heaven and earth are no exception. Finally, the poet came to the conclusion that loving wine is not only reasonable but also beneficial. In fact, this poem is just a poet Li Bai expressing his feelings through wine to relieve his depressed mood away from political affairs and official career.
The third and fourth poems in the group are about the poet's depression, and finally he can only drown his sorrows by drinking. The poet compares the joy of drinking with his own frustration in officialdom, which shows the poet's broad-minded and optimistic character. However, it is not difficult to find that the poet's melancholy and sadness are hidden in his poems.
From this group of poems in Solitary Moon, we can know that the poet Li Bai can only get drunk when he is frustrated and use wine to relieve his depression, but we can also see the poet's optimistic and indomitable character from this group of poems.

According to historical records, "Entering Wine" was originally a tune of Han Yuefu, and many poets wrote poems on it, but the most influential one was Li Bai's "Entering Wine". The time when Li Bai wrote this poem has always been controversial, and there is no specific historical data to verify it. What is now more accepted by the public is what Li Bai wrote when he met his friends in 752 AD. At that time, Li Bai was appreciated by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and was named Hanlin. He followed and served at Tang Xuanzong's side at all times. Li Bai's luck was envied by many people at that time. They vilified Li Bai in front of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, so Li Bai was driven out of the court by them. When Li Bai was traveling, he met his good friend Cen Can and others. Li Bai was drinking and having fun with several people at that time, and he wrote this famous poem while drunk.
The poem "Into the Wine" contains profound meaning and mature artistic expression, which can be said to be Li Bai's works in the peak period. This poem vividly and concretely shows Li Bai's unique personality characteristics. On the one hand, he is bohemian, optimistic and free-spirited, and full of confidence. On the other hand, he is incompetent and shows a willingness to enjoy life when his official career is not smooth.
The poem "Into the Wine" is not very long, but its language is extremely heroic and calm, and it has a power and momentum that can shock others. It is a rare masterpiece.
