"Drinking with Meng Degu and making an appointment for the later period", "Ask Liu Shijiu"
"Pipa Xing", "Song of Everlasting Sorrow", etc.
"Pipa Song" and "Song of Everlasting Sorrow" are Bai Juyi's most successful works. The outstanding feature of their artistic expression is the strengthening of lyrical factors. Compared with previous narrative poems, although these two works also use narration and description to express events, they simplify the events beyond simplicity, using only one central event and two or three main characters to structure the entire poem, such as quite dramatic The Mawei Incident in Mawei is described by the author in just a few strokes. In terms of the most lyrical psychological description of the characters and the rendering of the environment and atmosphere, he splashes ink like rain in order to enjoy it to the fullest. Works that focus more on encounter narratives also use emotions to closely connect sounds and events. Sounds arise with emotion, and emotions change with events, so that the process of the poem is always accompanied by moving emotional power. In addition, the lyricism of these two works is also reflected in the use of selected images to create the appropriate atmosphere and enhance the artistic conception of the poems. For example, in "Song of Everlasting Sorrow", "I feel sad when I see the moon in the palace, and I hear the heartbreaking sound of bells in the night rain", "Maple leaves and flowers rustle in autumn" in "Pipa Song", "The vast river is soaked in the moon when we say goodbye" and other poems, or the cold moon is Color, pattering night rain, and heart-breaking bells combine to form an ecstatic scene, or rustling maple leaves, dill flowers, and the vast river moon form a sad and lonely picture, which reveals the desolate, sentimental, and melancholy moods. The characters and events in the poem are all dyed, which makes readers feel shaken and unable to control themselves when faced with such artistic conception and atmosphere.
