Is He Zhizhang Li Bai’s Bo Le The story of He Zhizhang and Li Bai

There are many types of relationships between people, and the relationship that exists from birth is that of parents, that is, family affection. Later, when I went to kindergarten, I met some children and developed friendships. When you are in your teenage years and your emotions are just beginning to bloom, you meet someone you love so much that you can’t let go, and that’s love. The so-called relationships in a person’s life all extend from these three emotions. So what is the relationship between Li Bai and He Zhizhang? First of all, let’s exclude family ties. Next, let’s take a look at the editor’s analysis.
Who is He Zhizhang?
He Zhizhang (around 659 AD -)
Around 744 AD, he was from Yongxing, Yuezhou. His courtesy name is Jizhen, and in his later years he referred to himself as the “Four Bright Crazy Customer”. He was a poet of the Tang Dynasty, with works such as “Ode to Willow Trees” and “Return to Hometown Book”. He has always been renowned for his talents, having achieved the top scorer in the imperial examination in the first year of Wu Zetian’s Zhengsheng reign, and serving the court throughout his life.
Famous phrases include: “I don’t know who cut the fine leaves, but the spring breeze in February is like scissors”, “The young leave home and the old return, but the local accent remains unchanged and the hair fades away”, “Only the mirror lake water in front of the door, the spring breeze does not change the old waves”, and so on.
Who is Li Bai?
Li Bai (701-762 December) was a great romantic poet of the Tang Dynasty. Li Bai, also known as Taibai, Qinglian Jushi, and “Exiled Immortal”, was praised by later generations as the “Poet Immortal”. His poetic style is elegant and free spirited, with a strong sense of the martial arts world. Love drinking, be bold and open-minded, and be good at making friends. Representative works include “Difficulties on the Road”, “Difficulties on the Shu Road”, “Drinking Alone”, “Ode to Mingtang”, etc.
Famous quotes: “The dangerous building is a hundred feet high, and the stars can be picked by hand”, “The difficulty of the Shu Road is difficult to reach the blue sky”.
How did Li Bai and He Zhizhang meet?
In the 23rd year of the Kaiyuan era (735 AD), Li Bai had just entered a small inn in Chang’an to rest. Because his poetry was so famous, the news of his arrival in Chang’an was quickly known by He Zhizhang. He Zhizhang liked Li Bai’s poetry and appreciated his talent, so he immediately went out to visit him. At that time, Li Baizheng had a belly full of ideals that had nowhere to be realized, so he heard that the Minister of Works, He Zhizhang, came to visit him.
Li Bai had long heard of the famous name He Zhizhang and knew that his “Bole” had arrived. He showed him his new article “Journey to Shu” written during his travels. He Zhizhang immediately exclaimed, “Isn’t it true that Gong is not a human being? He is not a Taibai Star Spirit.” He then called him a “banished immortal. Although He Zhizhang was already in his seventies at that time, the age difference was not important, and the two still had a great conversation. Afterwards, even though these two became close friends, He Zhizhang repeatedly promoted Li Bai and even pushed him to the court.
This is the relationship between Li Bai and He Zhizhang. Although they have a 42 year age difference, they are good friends and close friends, and they have a close relationship as “Bole” and “Qianlima”.
