2. Pipa Tour

Bai Juyi influenced Bai Juyi's poetic theory in later generations, integrating Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and taking Confucianism as the guiding ideology of "if you are poor, you will be immune to it, and if you succeed, you will help the world." His ambition of "helping the economy at the same time" is mainly to implement the benevolent government of Confucianism. When he was trusted by the emperor, he spoke out politically and dared to do things, so his poetry creation actively reflected the sufferings of people's livelihood and served to make up for current events. When he loses trust and can't do anything, he asks to be dismissed from his post or to be an idle official. Instead of avoiding disaster, he amused himself with poetry, wine, Zen and traveling, and his poetry creation mainly expressed his personal feelings. No matter whether he is rich or poor, he can't live without poetry.
Bai Juyi not only left many poems in his life, but also put forward a whole set of poetic theories. He compared poetry to a fruit tree and put forward the famous argument of "root feeling, Miao language, Watson and true meaning" Emotion is the content of poetry, harmony is the expression of poetry, and righteousness is the social effect of poetry. Therefore, poetry creation cannot be divorced from reality, but must come from life and reflect the social and political situation of an era based on various events in real life.
