Bai Juyi's story

In the Tang Dynasty, there was a young genius who wrote many poems - Bai Juyi.

Bai Juyi began to write poetry when he was five or six years old. When he was nine years old, he was very familiar with the rhyme of poetry. The mother is a loving, strict and literate woman who serves as the enlightenment teacher of Bai Juyi.

Regardless of day or night, she always teaches her son with poetry, but after all, the child is lazy when the child is lazy. At this time, the mother did not fight him, but reasoned, urged him to fill the missing learning tasks little by little.

In this way, Bai Juyi gradually developed a good habit of diligent study.

On one occasion, he took his own new work and went to the prestigious poet, who was in front of him. He looked at the famous post casually, and when he opened it, his eyes were like being sucked by a magnet. I can't help but sigh the charm: "'The wildfire is not burning, the spring breeze is born again. 'Well, good! People who can write such a verse, want to live anywhere, it is not difficult! Come in! Come in!"

When I saw that the person who wrote the poem turned out to be a teenager, I was happy to talk to him about poetry. Unconsciously, I talked about the darkness! In this year, Bai Juyi was 16 years old.

Since then, the name of this young genius who will write poetry has spread in Chang'an City.

Liu Bei's story

At the end of the Han Dynasty, the yellow towel started, the world was in chaos, Cao Cao sat according to the court, Sun Quan sang Dongwu, Han Zong room, Yuzhou Mu Liu, listening to Xu Wei and Sima Hui said that Zhuge teacher is very knowledgeable and talented, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei took Gift to Longzhong Wollongong to ask Zhuge teacher to go out to assist him. It happened that Zhuge teacher went out this day, and Liu Bei had to go back in disappointment.

Soon, Liu Bei and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei braved the blizzard for the second time. Unexpectedly, Zhuge teacher went out for a leisurely trip. Zhang Fei is not willing to come again. Seeing that Zhuge is not at home, he urges to go back. Liu Bei had to leave a letter expressing his admiration for Zhuge and asking him to help him save the country's dangerous situation.

After a while, after Liu Bei ate three days, he was ready to ask Zhuge. Guan Yu said that Zhuge teacher may have a false name, and may not have a real talent to learn. Zhang Fei advocated that he should be called by himself. If he did not come, he tied him with a rope. Liu Bei blamed Zhang Fei for a meal, and they invited Zhuge teacher for the third time. When they went to Zhuge’s home, it was already noon, and Zhuge was sleeping. Liu Bei did not dare to alarm him. He stood until Zhuge teacher woke up and sat down to talk to each other.

Teacher Zhuge saw that Liu Bei was willing to do things for the country, and sincerely asked him to help, he came out to help Liu Bei to establish the Shuhan Dynasty.

"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" called Liu Bei three times personally to ask Zhuge teacher this thing, called "three Gu Mao". In the famous "Teacher's Table", Zhuge's teacher also has the sentence "The first emperor does not use the court to be humble, and he is guilty of grievances, and the three cherries are in the grass." So the later generations saw someone who asked the people he admired to help him to do things, and when he went to the man’s house several times in a row, he quoted this sentence to describe the desire and sincerity of the person. That is, it is not shameful to ask, the meaning of seeking humility.

In the 12th year of Jian'an, when Zhuge was 27 years old, Liu Bei's "Three Gu Mao" was in Nanyang Longzhong. He met with Zhuge teacher and asked to unify the world. Teacher Zhuge analyzed the situation at that time and proposed to win Jing and benefit as the base. Internal reform politics, foreign joint Sun Quan, Nan Fu Yi Yue, Xi He Zhu, waiting for the opportunity, two roads to the Northern Expedition, thus unifying the grand blueprint of the national strategic thinking, this conversation is the famous "Lung Zhong Dia".

The poem written by Bai Juyi is vivid and smooth, even the old lady who has no culture can understand. But who can think of him as a "genius", how much effort he spent on writing poetry.

After becoming famous, Bai Juyi’s requirements for himself were more stringent. He still read and wrote and read it all day long... Bai Juyi left more than 3,000 poems for later generations and became one of the poets who wrote the most poems in the Tang Dynasty.
