Bai Juyi's Song of Eternal Sorrow is not contemporaneous with Yang Yuhuan's Song of Eternal Sorrow. What is his intention?

Praise love. The love between Yang Yuhuan and Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty can be said to be very admirable. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was an emperor, but he really liked Yang Yuhuan. He has done a lot for Yang Yuhuan. As long as Yang Yuhuan likes it, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty will take off all the stars in the sky for her and try his best to meet Yang Yuhuan's requirements and make Yang Yuhuan happy. Only Yang Yuhuan is happy, he will be happy. He was preoccupied with Yang Yuhuan.

The emperor seldom loves a person with his heart, so this is worthy of Bai Juyi's admiration. Emperors always protect their own throne, so they seldom really love a person. They are all willing to give up their women for their status. Some concubines in the ancient harem can be said to love the emperor very much and gave their lives to this man, but many emperors regarded them as their own methods. If necessary, they will definitely choose to give up these concubines in the harem. But Tang Xuanzong is different. He really loves Yang Yuhuan. Later, when his country was dying, other courtiers advised him to escape, but his heart was still thinking about Yang Yuhuan and he wanted to take Yang Yuhuan with him, but he couldn't. Later, he didn't take Yang Yuhuan with him. He managed to escape, but his heart was still thinking about Yang Yuhuan, hoping that Yang Yuhuan could come back to him. From here, we can see the love between Yang Yuhuan and Tang Xuanzong, and Tang Xuanzong really loved her!

The poem he was asked to write was about love. So he remembered the love between Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty and Yang Yuhuan. Their love is really touching, so Bai Juyi chose this theme at that time. He wrote this poem to celebrate their love.

In a word, his original intention is actually to praise their love.
