Creation background
There are different opinions about the writing time of this poem. According to Guan's New Notes on Li Bai's Poems, this poem was written in the autumn of the 22nd year of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (734). Li Bai was invited to Yuan Danqiu's seclusion in Songshan, and Cen Can was there. The three of them had a drinking party. Yu Xianhao's Li Baiji believes that this poem was written around the 24th year of Kaiyuan (736).
Huang Xixuan's Chronicle of Li Taibai was written in the 11th year of Tianbao (752). It is generally believed that this is what Li Bai did when he wandered between Liang and Song Dynasties and met his friends Cenxun and Yuan Danqiu after he left Beijing in Tianbao years.
In the early years of Tianbao of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Bai was recommended by Taoist wujun, and was accepted by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, ordering Li Bai to worship the Hanlin. Soon, due to the slander of powerful people, Li Bai was expelled from Beijing in Tianbao three years (744), and Tang Xuanzong paid back the money. Since then, Li Bai has been wandering around the Jianghuai area, and his thoughts are extremely annoyed, and he has once again embarked on a long journey of traveling around the mountains and rivers of the motherland.
When Li Bai wrote this poem, it was eight years since Li Bai was "given gold and returned" by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. During this period, Li Bai and his friend Cen Xun (Master Cen) were invited to Angelababy, another friend of Songshan, Yuan Danqiu. The three of them climbed the mountain, held a banquet and sang songs through wine. The poet was politically excluded and frustrated, and his ideal could not be realized. They often drown their sorrows in wine. The joy of life is nothing more than making friends at cocktail parties, and the author is at the moment of "using the talents of the world without meeting each other", so he is full of untimely drinking to drown his sorrows.
