Creative background

When Li Bai visited Taohuatan in Jingxian County (now Anhui Province), he formed a deep friendship with Wang Lun. During the reign of Tianbao in Kaiyuan, Wang Lun made an order for Jingxian County, and Li Bai "waited for it, and the money could not bear to be parted". According to this poem or for Li Bai's visit when Wang Lun was living in Taohuatan. Li Bai traveled from Guangling, Jinling to Xuancheng in the 13th year of Tianbao (754), so this poem should not be earlier than before.

Li Bai has always been unruly, does not do common things, and dares to say anything that ordinary people dare not say. In fact, many poems given to farewell friends are written in this way, such as a farewell to meng haoran on his way to yangzhou in the Yellow Crane Tower, and hearing that Wang Changling moved to Longbiaoyao, etc., which seems to have no scruples about each other's feelings. In fact, it is not. Just because he is a heart-to-heart friend, intimate friends will not care so much.

Let's talk about what a tap song is. It is actually a form of singing and dancing. Everyone is singing in groups, holding hands and dancing. It can be seen that it is a group of people. It can be thought that in order to bid farewell to Li Bai, Wang Lun called a group of friends, which reflects his good intentions.

Let's talk about Taohuatan, which is located in Jingxian County, Xuancheng, Anhui Province. The scenery is very beautiful. Of course, the Peach Blossom Pond is deep in thousands of feet, which is just an exaggeration of Li Bai's writing, just like his writing "Flying down three thousands of feet" means the same thing.

"Clear water produces hibiscus, and it is natural to carve it." Later generations like to evaluate Li Bai's poems with his words. It is true that Li Bai's improvisation of poetry is effortless. He is passionate, outspoken, naive and natural, with no affectation, but has a kind of unexpected beauty. "This kind of kung fu is extremely difficult to learn. This poem "To Wang Lun" embodies Li Bai's natural and exquisite poetic style.
