1, the Jiangtou incident of Bai Juyi in Xunyang originated from the pipa line written in the eleventh year of Yuanhe (8 16). During his tenure as an admonition officer, Bai Juyi dared to speak out, sympathized with the sufferings of the people, and wrote many satirical poems, which aroused the anger of Tang Xianzong and the dissatisfaction of court ministers. In the 10th year of Yuanhe, Sok Li Taoist sent someone to assassinate Prime Minister Wu. In desperation, Bai Juyi called for the arrest of the assassin and offended the court. He was demoted to Jiangzhou Secretariat. He also slandered Jiangzhou Sima for "damaging the name of religion", "new well" and "appreciating flowers". Jiangzhou was regarded as a "wild land" at that time. The position of Jiangzhou Sima, nominally a secretariat, is actually a sinecure, which Bai Juyi finds ridiculous. It is unfair that he was demoted. He was hit hard again and again, depressed and full of anger. The following year, he left Pukou and wrote this famous poem.
2. When Bai Juyi 1 1 years old, he moved to Fuli (now Fuli Town, Yongqiao District, Suzhou City, Anhui Province) with his mother, and his father worked here for nothing. Then I met a girl four years younger than him in the East. Her name is Chen Xiangling. Xiang Ling is lively and lovely, knows melody and poetry, so they became childhood friends. When Bai Juyi 19 years old and Xiangling 15 years old, the seeds of love began their first love. Bai Juyi has a poem "Daughter Next Door", which recounts the fifteen-year-old Xiangling and praises her beauty and sweet voice. In the 14th year of Zhenyuan (798), Bai Juyi was 27 years old. For the sake of family life and his future, he had to leave Fu and his uncle in Jiangnan. Along the way, he wrote three poems in memory of Xiangling. They are To Xiangling, Cold Night and Sauvignon Blanc. It can be clearly seen from the poem that Bai Juyi and Xiangling fell in love 17 years and 8 years. After I left, I not only missed each other, but also thought about getting married. But Chen Xiangling is worried that her family is the lowest and she can't climb Bai Juyi. Finally, I expressed my sincere hope to work together step by step. At the beginning of the sixteenth year of Zhenyuan, Bai Juyi was admitted to the Jinshi at the age of 29 and lived outside for nearly 10 months. She earnestly asked her mother to marry Xiangling, but her feudal mother refused. This door is wrong. Xiangling's father, Chen Yitian, nicknamed Chen, is a geomancer. Bai Juyi was helpless and reluctantly left home. In the autumn of the tenth year of Zhenyuan (AD 804), Bai Juyi went to school in Chang 'an and needed to move his family to Chang 'an. He went home and begged his mother to allow him to marry Xiangling again, but his mother, who had more doors than anything else, not only refused his request again, but also refused to meet the whole family when they moved away. Their marriage was hopeless, but their deep love didn't end there. Bai Juyi punished his mother's mistake by not marrying others, and wrote three poems to commemorate Xiangling: Missing Xiangling on a Winter Night, Feeling Autumn and Farewell. For eight years, my mother never allowed Bai Juyi to meet Xiangling again, nor did she allow him to mention Xiangling. At the age of 37, under the pressure of her mother's death, Bai Juyi was introduced to marry Yang's sister, but until Yuanhe seven years ago, she still wrote poems for Miss Xiangling. Such as rain at night, sensors, etc. Later, Bai Juyi was wronged and exiled to Jiangzhou. On the way, she and Mrs. Yang met the wandering Xiangling father and daughter. Bai Juyi and Xiangling wept bitterly and wrote a poem called "Meet Old". Bai Juyi was 44 years old and Chen Xiangling was 40 years old. Chen Xiangling, who has always loved Bai Juyi deeply, returned to Bai Houyi's poem "Meet Old" and followed his father. Chen Xiangling has never been married. Bai Juyi sent Xiangling at night, and with a wave of his hand, he wrote Pipa. It was after he personally experienced this tragic love that he completed this famous poem Pipa Xing. When Bai Juyi was 53 years old, he came to Fuli for the last time on his way back to Los Angeles from Hangzhou Secretariat. When he saw the change of the old village and the disappearance of his neighbor Xiangling, the 35-year love tragedy came to an end.
