Bai Juyi, also named Letian, was born in a small and medium-sized bureaucratic family of "Shidun Confucianism".

He studied hard in his youth and became a Jinshi in the 16th year of Zhenyuan (800). Portrait of Bai Juyi

[2] The two became friends. In the spring of the 19th year, he was awarded the title of Provincial Secretary. "Yong Ke", he was awarded the title of County Lieutenant. He wrote "Guan Mao Mao", "Song of Everlasting Sorrow" and "Chi Shang". In the second year of Yuanhe, he returned to the imperial court and served as a scholar. The gentry and others initiated the New Yuefu Movement. In the fifth year of Yuanhe's reign, he was still a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, drafting imperial edicts and participating in state affairs. Because his mother died at home and he served his time, he returned to Beijing to serve. Ten years later, he was demoted to the Sima of Jiangzhou (now Jiujiang, Jiangxi) for taking the lead in writing a petition to arrest Wu Yuanheng's assassin. The next year, he wrote "Pipa Xing". "Hidden", he built a thatched cottage in Lushan, and his thoughts shifted from "contributing to the world" to "taking care of himself", and more and more leisurely and sentimental poems were written. In the 13th year of Yuanhe, he was appointed as the governor of Zhongzhou. In the 15th year, he returned to Beijing and moved to Zhongshushe. Because of the strife between the factions in the DPRK and China, he requested to be released to the outside world in the second year of Changqing (822), and he became the governor of Hangzhou and Suzhou, which was very popular among the people. In order to commemorate him, the people of Hangzhou named the side near the West Lake Baidi. In the first year of Yamato (827), he became the Secretary-General of the Ministry of Punishment. In the next four years, he settled in Luoyang and served as Prince Guest, Henan Yin, and Prince Shaofu. In the second year of Huichang (842), he became the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. He entertained himself with poetry, wine, Zen, music and landscape, and often sang with Liu Yuxi, who was called Liu Bai at that time. In the fourth year of Huichang, he funded the construction of Longmen Bajie Rock Beach to benefit the boat people. He died of illness at the age of 75 and was buried at Pipa Peak in Longmen Xiangshan, Luoyang. Li Shangyin wrote an epitaph for him 5. "Poetry by Bai Juyi" in classical Chinese

These should come from Bai Juyi's "Nine Books of the Yuan Dynasty"

Many: adjectives, describing a large number. Appointed; appointed.

Predicate: a certain area, here can be translated as "level"

Noir: the reason why the family is poor. , Twenty-seven Fang Congxiang Fu.

Although he specialized in academic examinations, he did not give up poetry when he was awarded the title of scholar.

< p> Or make friends as if you are a junior, but you have never seen the author's domain. Since he came to the dynasty, he has grown older and read more and more things.

Every time he talks to people, he has more knowledge. Inquiring about current affairs; every time I read history, I always seek to understand the truth. I realized that articles were written according to the time, and poems were written according to the events.

At that time, when the emperor first came to the throne, there were good people in the government, and he sent seals to the emperor many times. The visitor is suddenly ill. On this day, I was promoted to the Imperial Academy and served as an admonishment officer. I asked for remonstrance papers every month.

Between the beginning and the beginning of the performance, there are those who can relieve people's illnesses and help mend the time gap, but it is difficult to point out the words. The top one is Guang Chen, who listens, and the second one is worried about diligence; the second one is to reward the kindness and reward, and the bottom one is to restore my life's ambition.

How can you regret it before your ambition is achieved, or slander it before your words are heard? This passage can be translated as: (My) family is poor and has many changes, and I did not take the Jinshi examination until I was twenty-seven. After passing the exam, although he concentrated on the imperial examination, he still did not stop writing poetry.

By the time he became a school editor, he had written three to four hundred poems. Sometimes I show it to friends like Shishita.

Everyone said it was skillfully written, but in fact I am not at the level of a poet author. Since I became an official in the imperial court, I have grown older and experienced more and more things. Whenever I talk to people, I ask more about current affairs. Whenever I read history, I explore more about the principles of governing the country.

Only then did I realize that articles should be written for current events, and poems should be created for reality. At this time, the emperor had just succeeded to the throne, and there were upright people among the government who issued edicts many times to investigate the people's sufferings.

It was at this time that I was promoted to a Hanlin bachelor and an official of Zuo Shiyi. I personally received the paper for writing remonstrances. In addition to writing memorials to state my opinions directly to the emperor, I could also relieve the sufferings of the people. , to make up for the shortcomings of current affairs, and matters that were difficult to explain directly, they were written into poems and slowly let the emperor know. First of all, it was used to broaden the emperor's knowledge and help him consider and handle national affairs.

The second is to repay the emperor's kindness and rewards and fulfill the duties of an admonisher. Finally, it is to realize one's lifelong wish to revitalize poetry.

Who would have thought that regret has already arisen when wishes have not been realized, poems have not been heard, but slander has already been formed. 6. Ancient text translation of "The Biography of Bai Juyi"

There were few poets he recommended and recognized, so he made fun of Bai Juyi and said: "Everything in Chang'an is expensive, and it is very difficult to 'live' here."

"

When I read Bai Juyi's poems, I read "The grass grows in Liliyuan, withering and growing every year." When he wrote the poem "The wild fire cannot burn out, but the spring breeze blows and revives", he said with emotion: "If you can write such a poem, it is not difficult to live in the world." What I said before was a joke. "In the sixteenth year of Zhenyuan, Gao Ying, a member of Zhongshushe, presided over the Jinshi examination and selected talents. Bai Juyi passed all the examinations and was appointed as the school secretary by the court.

In the first year of Yuanhe, Bai Juyi wrote Yuefu and More than 100 poems satirizing current affairs were circulated in the palace. After reading his poems, the emperor liked him very much, summoned him and appointed him as a Hanlin scholar, and then successively served as Zuo Shiyi. At that time, a thief assassinated him. There was a lot of discussion in the capital. Bai Juyi was the first to go to Emperor Shu, requesting an urgent arrest of the thief.

The powerful people were disgusted with him and were very angry with him: "Bai Juyi's mother fell into a trap." After his death, he wrote the "Arai Pian". The words and sentences are very exaggerated and gorgeous, and such conduct cannot be reused. " Later, Bai Juyi was demoted to Jiangzhou Sima.

At first, Bai Juyi just thought that the assassinated prime minister Wu Yuanheng should not be allowed to die on the street. In fact, he had no other ideas. (Unexpectedly, he offended the traitors, so he His ambitions were frustrated. But he was able to let nature take its course and transcend physical pain through the Buddhist theory of life and death. After a long period of time, he was transferred to Zhongshu Sheren to be in charge of formulating the government's decrees.

In 2000, a riot broke out in Hebei, and the imperial court sent troops to no avail. Bai Juyi made another remonstrance to the imperial court, but it was not accepted, so he asked for external transfer and served as the governor of Hangzhou. After Tang Wenzong came to the throne, he issued an imperial edict to promote Bai Juyi to the post of Minister of Punishment. He resigned and returned home in the early years of Huichang. , and finally died at home.

Juyi was born in Xiagui, Taiyuan. , Relying on the recommendation of the young man, he said jokingly: "Everything in Chang'an is expensive, and it is not easy to live there. "And after reading the poem volume, I came to "The grass on the Lili plain grows wither and wither every year." The wild fire cannot be burned out, but the spring breeze blows and rekindles it." Nai sighed and said: "There is a saying like this, it is not difficult to live in the world.

I have a preface to the drama. "In the 16th year of Zhenyuan, all the Jinshi and Distinguished Scholars passed, and he was appointed as a supplementary school scholar. In the first year of Yuanhe, he wrote more than 100 Yuefu and poems. He satirized current affairs and was banned from being circulated. He was highly praised and summoned to pay homage to Hanlin scholars. Li Zuo picked up the relics. At that time, the prime minister was being robbed and the capital was in turmoil. The powerful officials were angry because they suspected that he was out of office.

There is a saying: Ju Yi's mother fell into a well and died. The poem "Xinjing Pian" is both flashy and useless. At first, it was inappropriate to expose Xun Yong. After a long time, he became a scholar in Zhongshu, and he knew how to control imperial edicts. He was in chaos in Heshuo, and his troops were in vain. He was established and moved to the Ministry of Punishment. He became an official in Huichang and died.

Appreciation of works:

"The Biography of Bai Juyi" mainly gives a biography of the poet Bai Juyi's life.

The early period was the period of benefiting the world, and the later period was the period of Bai Juyi's 16th year of Zhenyuan. (800) When he was 29 years old, he became a Jinshi. He successively served as Secretary, Provincial Secretary, Xu Zhiwei, and Hanlin Bachelor. During the Yuanhe period, he served as Zuo Shiyi. He wrote a large number of allegorical poems. His representative works are ten poems of "Qin Zhong Yin" and "Xin Yuefu". "Fifty poems, these poems made the powerful gnash their teeth, sigh, and change their expressions.

In the sixth year of Yuanhe, Bai Juyi's mother died of mental disorder in Chang'an. According to the rules of the time, Bai Juyi returned to his hometown to observe filial piety for three years. After returning to Chang'an after his filial piety, the emperor arranged for him to become the official Zuo Zanshan.

His demotion to Jiangzhou (now Jiujiang) was a heavy blow to Bai Juyi. "Eliminating the mind of right and wrong", his early Buddhist and Taoist thoughts grew. Three years later, with the help of his friend Cui Qun, he was promoted to the governor of Zhongzhou.

During his tenure in Hangzhou, he saw that the farmland in Hangzhou was often threatened by drought. However, the officials refused to use the water from the West Lake to irrigate the fields, so they overcame many obstacles and criticisms, mobilized migrant workers to heighten the lake embankments, build embankments and sluices, increased the lake water capacity, and solved the problem of Qiantang (now Hangzhou) and Yanguan (now Haining). Bai Juyi also stipulated that the large and small water gates and gates in the West Lake should be closed in time when farmland is not irrigated; Bai Juyi also organized timely repairs if any leaks were found. The masses re-dredged six wells dug by Li Mi, the governor of Hangzhou, in the Qiantangmen and Yongjinmen areas during the Dali period of the Tang Dynasty, improving the water conditions for residents.
