Liu Yuxi (772 ~842) was born in Luoyang, Henan, and his ancestral home was Xingyang, Zhengzhou, Henan. He said, "His family was born in Xingyang, and he was born in Luoyang". His ancestor was Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan (a descendant of Xiongnu). Ministers, writers and philosophers in the Tang Dynasty were called "poets". Eighteen volumes of poetry, now twelve volumes. ?
In the ninth year of Zhenyuan (793), Liu Yuxi was a scholar, first as a proofreader of the prince, then moved to Huainan to join the army, and then joined the Du You shogunate, which won Du You's trust and esteem. Du You entered the DPRK as prime minister, and Liu Yuxi also moved to the empire. At the end of Zhenyuan, he joined the "two kings and eight horses" political group headed by the prince.
After Tang Shunzong ascended the throne, Liu Yuxi participated in the "Yongzheng Innovation". After the failure of innovation, it was repeatedly relegated. In the second year of Huichang (842), he moved to be the guest of honor of the Prince and died in Luoyang at the age of 71. He was posthumously given to the Minister of Housing and buried in Xingyang.
Liu Yuxi's poems and essays are all excellent, with a wide range of subjects. He was called "Bai Liu" with Bai Juyi, "Liu Liu" with Liu Zongyuan, and "Three Masters" with Wei and Bai Juyi.
Liu Yuxi's landscape poems have changed the narrow-minded and desolate style of Dali and Zhenyuan poets, and often write a kind of half-empty and half-solid open scene of beyond space's real distance, such as "the distant mountains under water are like snow, and the grass on the bridge is like smoke" ("The fables and plays of Nanzhuang and Niu Xianggong after drinking are presented with lotte"), "The weeds are lush, the gossamer is dazzling, and Luotian is dazzling". Another example is Wang Dongting.
In this quiet and ethereal landscape, the poet's subjective feelings are integrated, which constitutes a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. However, although Liu Yuxi said that "if he can leave his desire, his heart will be empty", he actively participated in Yongzhen's innovation, in fact, he still had to realize his life ideal in society; His personality is also stubborn, but his poems often show a high-spirited and cheerful spirit. For example, one of the two poems "Autumn Poetry" and "Climbing the Tower with Lotte" has a high-spirited power.
