What kind of person is Bai Juyi? Bai Juyi and Yuan Zhen dare not compliment! Interested readers can take a look with me.

Bai Juyi is one of the three famous poets in Tang Dynasty. He and his good friend Yuan Zhen are called "Bai Yuan", but you know, their personalities are not pleasing. What happened? Let's talk about it today

Yuan Zhen and Bai Juyi were contemporaries. Both of them are famous for their poems and are called "Bai Yuan". And they are also close friends in private, and they have the same idea. We have been friends for nearly half a lifetime. We have written poems together and created many touching poems. Since ancient times, we all admire these famous saints in history. However, no one is perfect. We only see their bright and positive side. In fact, they also have another side of ordinary people.

When Yuan Zhen was young, he met his first love, Cui Yingying, a poor boy. It's a replica of The West Chamber, and Yuan Zhen and Ying Ying had a good time. However, a few years later, because the decline of Yingying's family did not help Yuan Zhen's career, Yuan Zhen, who was infatuated, decisively sent a friend card to his first love, boasting that he was "not good enough to win the Uber" and decisively went to the Imperial Capital to win fame.

Although she failed in the list, she was appreciated by the young prince Wei, and even found Wei's little daughter very beautiful.

So Yuan Zhen, a great genius, easily married Wei Cong, a lovely girl. They had a good relationship after marriage, but they were poor!

Wei Cong, a good girl, also supports this family by selling jewelry. Yuan Zhen was promoted to suggestion with the support of his father-in-law. However, the good times didn't last long. Wei Cong died at a young age, so Yuan Zhen wrote three poems to mourn. There are the following sentences in the poems:

Even if you can bury it, you can't tell a passion. What an illusory hope the fetters of the afterlife are.

However, when I open my eyes, I can see the whole night, the lifelong troubles in your brow.

It's so touching that people are dying to live, saying that they should share the same cave with their wives after death, and see you in the afterlife. ...

What's more, he promised not to marry for life, saying, "I'll keep my eyes open all night, the lifelong trouble in your brow."

Of course, there is the famous saying above, "In the past, the sea was difficult for water."

But Yuan Zhen, as a prodigal genius, was certainly not as loyal as he said in his poems, and still lingered among the flowers. Later, Yuan Zhen, a handsome young widower, and Xue Tao, a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty, had a love affair that I don't know was platonic or never had before, and it became a much-told story for a while. Who's Xue Tao?

She was a famous poetess and official prostitute at that time, and countless people studied, all of whom were political and business celebrities. But such a woman still took a fancy to love rat's Yuan Zhen.

Not surprisingly, these two people didn't last long. They lived with Xue for four months and parted ways with Yuan Zhen because of job transfer.

However, it is such an "infatuated person" who has cheated and lost his feelings, but still continues to write poems with a clear conscience, telling his deep affection and love.

In Yuan Zhen's life, there were countless Yingying Yanyan, which was a typical case of different opinions.

Look at his good friend Bai Juyi. Although Bai Juyi had a smooth career when he was young, he didn't get married until he was in his thirties. In many of his poems, he implied a perverted desire to keep women for himself. Just years after Yuan Zhen abandoned Xue Tao, Bai Juyi wrote a poem "With Xue Tao":

Mount Emei is connected with Yun Ni and wants to drive Liu Lang away from this road.

If it seems easy to get there, the spring breeze is still separated from the Wuling River.

It can be said that Bai Juyi's approach is very contemptuous. After all, Xue Tao fell in love with Yuan Zhen. At that time, he still maintained the identity of Yuan Zhen's wife and was also the wife of a good friend. Bai Juyi is really mean to do so. Later, Bai Juyi didn't dare to put this poem into his collection of poems.

Poetry is a preface written by Yuan Zhen. Of course, he felt ashamed to let Yuan Zhen see this poem. Bai Juyi not only seduced his friend's wife, but also seduced another innocent woman by writing poems.

Guan is just an ordinary woman, the lover of Zhang Cheng, a very attractive official in the Tang Dynasty. After Rizo's death, Guan expressed his loyalty alone and never remarried for fifteen years. Under the influence of the feudal thought of "Three Obediences and Four Virtues" in ancient China, most women would choose to stick to chastity like Guan, despite their humble status.

When Zhang Cheng was alive, he once warmly treated Bai Juyi. At that time, in order to increase his mood, Guan invited him to perform his songs and dances. When Bai Juyi saw his beauty, he was speechless with surprise and his mouth watered. Because of his face, he has only envy and disappointment. However, since then, Guan has left a deep impression on his mind, and he will not forget it many years later.

After the death of Zhang Cheng, an official, Bai Juyi missed Guan more. After learning that Guan lived alone, he wrote a poem with great feelings:

The window is full of bright moon and frost, and the cold light stays in the bed;

Qiu Lai is only one person long in the swallow house where the moon is frosty.

This poem is affectionate and implicit, depicting Guan's loneliness and melancholy, expressing his yearning for a woman, missing the woman who surprised him that year, unconsciously thinking of himself as a man in Guan, and missing him at the same time.

Bai Juyi's lust is understandable, but his cruel nature is exposed in another poem about Guan later:

A guest came back from Luoyang this spring to visit Shangshu's grave.

Seeing poplars like pillars, arguing that red powder is not gray.

In this poem, Bai Juyi shows his pity and sarcasm for Rizo without hesitation: when it comes to Rizo's tomb, poplar can be a pillar, but the pink girl who loved him before her death is still lonely. He once lost everything for a woman, but he couldn't get her heart. No woman wants to die for Zhang Cheng.

Guan understood the meaning of this poem and was very indignant. So, in order to prove herself, she began to self-destruct, refused to eat, and virtually went to the dead end implied by Bai Juyi. This once remarkable poet pushed a weak woman to the point of no return with his own pen, from which we may feel a kind of hatred in our hearts.

Not only that, Bai Juyi keeps a prostitute every three years because he is too old. He also wrote a poem boasting about "chasing for love": "After ten years of crying in the spring, Yinger's tongue changes, and after three times, she doesn't change her eyebrows."

Among Bai Juyi's domestic prostitutes, there are two famous prostitutes, one is Su Fan and the other is Xiaoman. Su Fan is good at singing and dancing, and Bai Juyi wrote "Cherry Su Fan mouth, willow waist." This poem.

In the Tang Dynasty, it was stipulated that official officials could have three female musicians, but Bai Juyi had hundreds of prostitutes who just played and sang.

This is Bai Juyi's sympathy for others by writing "Selling Charcoal Weng" during the day, and pursuing the pleasure of men and women at night. What is even more hateful is that Bai Juyi disliked old prostitutes for three years, and wanted to change them again, three times in ten years, and he was proud of it and showed off everywhere.

I really don't know what qualifications Bai Juyi, who is dying, has to face Su Fan Xiaoman because he is too old.

Throughout Bai Juyi's life, he criticized current politics in his early years, denounced current abuses, cared about the sufferings of the people and sympathized with the elderly. From the heart, some of his works also reflect this point well. From "The poor are naked, but they are worried about charcoal and cold" in "The Charcoal Man" to "But who among them cries the most? ? "This Jiujiang official. My blue sleeves are wet. "Indeed, Bai Juyi did say so in his prime, thought so, and even did so. Bai Juyi at this time is undoubtedly noble and great. It was for this reason that he was killed and exiled to the wild land at that time.

However, after all, one day, Bai Juyi experienced ups and downs in his career and finally reached middle age and old age. At this time, he is smooth, silent, sophisticated, idle and boring. In her later years, Bai Juyi was a prostitute, arrogant and extravagant, and she was complacent and showed off in front of people, but she was not ashamed of it, but she also became a lecherous. An old man with a wrinkled face and a white beard often says that women in their twenties are too old to have taste. He raised a large number of geisha to amuse himself, selling what he thought was old and buying young ones.

People can change, even those who were once noble and great. Bai Juyi in his later years is Bai Juyi in his later years, but after all, there is a young Bai Juyi in his prime! Let's remember the good Bai Juyi and gradually forget the bad Bai Juyi! The wise Tang Xuanzong in the first half of his life, and the unconscious Tang Xuanzong in his later years! Good is good, bad is bad!
