Literary achievements
Pipa Xing and Song of Eternal Sorrow are Bai Juyi's most successful works, and the outstanding feature of their artistic expression is the strengthening of lyric factors. Compared with the previous narrative poems, although these two works also use narrative and description to express events, they can no longer simplify events.
Only one central event and two or three main characters are used to structure the whole article, such as the dramatic ponytail event, which the author will briefly talk about, but in the most lyrical psychological description of the characters and the rendering of the environmental atmosphere, he will splash ink like rain to entertain himself, even though Pipa has used more pen and ink in the description of music and the description of the characters' encounters.
It is also to closely connect sound with things by emotion, and sound rises with emotion, and emotion moves with emotion, so that the process of poetry is always accompanied by touching emotional power.
