Books with Han Jingzhou

[Author] Li Bai? [Dynasty] Tang Dynasty

Bai heard that the world's talkers gathered together and said: "There is no need to be granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households. , I wish I could get to know Han Jingzhou. "How admirable it is to be here!" Wouldn't it be possible to have the style of Zhou Gong, to talk about the things he mastered, so that the heroes from all over the world would rush back home, and once they climbed to the dragon gate, their reputation would be ten times the price! Therefore, the nobles, the dragons, the phoenixes, the phoenixes, all want to receive their names and fix their names on the princes. May the kings and princes not be arrogant because of their wealth, and be ignorant of their humble status, then there will be hair among the three thousand, so that Bai De will stand out and be his person.

Bai, a commoner from Longxi, lived in Chu and Han. Fifteen good swordsmanship, all over the princes. Thirty percent of the articles have reached the prime minister's level. Although he is less than seven feet long, he is ambitious. All the princes and lords pledge their righteousness. How dare you not leave all traces of your thoughts in this realm to the king and lord!

The king makes gods and goddesses, his virtue moves heaven and earth, his pen participates in creation, and he studies heaven and man. Fortunately, I wish to open my heart and not refuse with a long bow. If you give him a high banquet and let him talk quietly, please try thousands of words every day, and you can rely on your horse to wait. Nowadays, the emperor is the commander of the article, and the weighing of characters will make him a good scholar once the title is reviewed. And why would a prince cherish the space in front of his steps, so that he could not be proud and proud, and be excited about the blue clouds?

In the past, the prince's division was in Yuzhou, and before he got off the bus, he was promoted to Xun Ciming. After getting off the bus, he was also promoted to Confucius and Wenju; So beautiful. The princes also recommended Yan Xielu as his secretary. Among them were disciples such as Cui Zongzhi, Fang Xizu, Li Xin, and Xu Ying, who were either known for their talents or rewarded for their innocence. Bai every time he saw his title, bowed his head, showed his loyalty and righteousness, and was grateful for it. He knew that the king's heart was in the hearts of all the sages, so he did not belong to others, but was willing to devote himself to the country. It's hard to be useful if you are anxious, but you dare to use your small body.

Besides Yao and Shun, who can be perfect? Bai Moyou is planning a plan, how can he be proud of himself? As for making and accumulating them into scrolls, you would like to see and listen to the dust. I'm afraid it's just a small skill, not suitable for adults. If you are given a gift of Kucuo, please give it paper and ink, and give it to the calligrapher. Then you can retreat to Xianxuan, write it down and submit it. The common people have green leaves and green leaves, which are of great value to the gates of Xue and Bian. Fortunately, it is obscene, and it is decorated with big prizes, but it is only for the sake of the king.

I, Li Bai, heard that some people in the world who talked about worldly affairs gathered together. They would say: "You don't have to be a marquis in life, I just want to get to know Han Jingzhou." Why do people admire and admire you to such an extent? Isn't it because you have the demeanor of Zhou Gong, the virtue of spitting out food, holding the hair and receiving the sages? , so that all the heroes and talents from all over the country flock to your door. Once you receive you, it is like climbing to the dragon gate. Your reputation and worth will immediately increase, ten times as much as before? Therefore, those scholars with outstanding talents hope to gain a good reputation and be evaluated by the princes. The princes do not look down on them because of their wealth, nor do they despise them because of their humbleness. Then there must be a genius like Mao Sui among the many guests. If I, Li Bai, have a chance to stand out, I am that kind of person. .

I, Li Bai, am a commoner in Longxi, living in the Chu region and Han River area. At the age of fifteen, he loved swordsmanship and visited many local governors; at the age of thirty, he became successful in literature and visited high-ranking officials of the court many times. Although I am less than seven feet tall, my ambition exceeds that of ten thousand people. The princes and princes all praised me for my integrity and morality. These are my thoughts and deeds in the past, how dare I not confide them to you?

The achievements of monarchs are comparable to gods, your virtues move the world, and your articles clarify the laws of change in the universe. The relationship between heaven and human affairs was explored. I hope you will be open-minded and accept me kindly, and don't reject me because of my courtesy as president. If you can receive me with a grand banquet and let me talk as much as I want, then I would like to test it by trying thousands of words every day. I will keep writing and rely on my horse to wait. Nowadays, people in the world regard monarchs as the masters of commentaries and weigh the authority of characters. Once a scholar is praised by you, he will become a scholar with both ability and political integrity. Why do you be so jealous of the one-foot-square space in front of the court steps and don't let me, Li Bai, feel proud and proud, soaring high above the blue clouds?

In the past, Wang Yun was appointed as the assassin of Yuzhou. Before he took office, he conquered Xun Shuang; after he took office, he conquered Kong Rong. Shan Tao was appointed as the governor of Jizhou and selected more than thirty people, some of whom were appointed ministers and some of whom were ministers. They were all praised by previous generations.

You also recommended Yan Xielu to the imperial court as a secretary; there are also people like Cui Zongzhi, Fang Xizu, Li Xin, and Xu Ying, some of whom were selected by you because of their talents and reputation. You understand some of them, and some of them are appreciated by you for their innocent conduct. Every time Li Bai saw them, he felt grateful, bowed and asked himself, and encouraged himself with loyalty and righteousness. Li Bai was also grateful for this, knowing that the monarch treated many wise people sincerely, so he did not surrender to others, but was willing to entrust his physical and mental destiny to the most talented and virtuous people in the country. If there is any use for me in times of crisis, I should devote myself to my service.

Moreover, if people are not Yao and Shun, who can be perfect? ??Li Bai, how can I be conceited in terms of strategy and planning? As for writing, it has been accumulated into scrolls, but I want to submit it to the king to take a look at it, but I am afraid that it is a small skill. Cannot be appreciated by adults. If you would like to take a look at my work, please give me pen and paper, as well as a writing staff. Then he went back to clean the quiet hut and copied it and submitted it. I hope that the Qingping sword and the beautiful jade will increase in value in the hands of Xue Zhu and Bian He. I hope that the king will extend his kindness to those in lower positions and open the door to rewards.

Li Bai's "Letter to Han Jingzhou" is a letter of self-recommendation when he first met Han. At the beginning of the article, I borrowed the words of a talker from all over the world - "I don't need to be granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households, I just hope I can get to know Han Jingzhou", praising Han Chaozong for his humility and his ability to recognize talents. Then he recommended himself and introduced his experience, talents and integrity. The article expresses Li Bai's spirit of "Although he is less than seven feet long, he is ambitious" and his pride of "trying thousands of words every day, relying on a horse to wait", as well as his character of being neither humble nor arrogant, and "making equals with the princes". The article was written with great momentum and was widely read.

Li Bai's "Book of Jingzhou with Han" is quite individual in its creation. When he was roaming around Jingzhou, he heard that Jingzhou Governor Shi Han Chaozong liked to recommend talented people, so he wrote this letter asking for recommendations. For the ancients, although it was normal to do so, they always had things to ask for from others. Generally speaking, it is better to be modest in literary style. Even if you talk about your own strengths, you should also be a little reserved. However, in Li Bai's letter of recommendation, he completely placed himself on an equal footing with the other party and talked about his talents without any disguise. Write a recommendation article with a bold and unbridled style, and a high-spirited spirit. This also reflects Li Bai's innocent temperament, and he will never have any petty selfish intentions or cowardly attitude for asking for help. This is because he believes that his talents are enough to be used in the world, and his ambition to use the world lies in loyalty and hard work to serve the king and the country. Therefore, asking Han to recommend me is also entirely out of a public spirit; and imagining that Han Ru can recommend me is also out of this public spirit. The acquaintance of two public-spirited people and the relationship of two wise men naturally do not need to have any secular expression in it. In this way, the letter is written in an extremely upright and aboveboard manner, with a selfless heart, and the writing style can naturally express itself to its fullest. For this reason, the text we are looking at now is originally a secular communication, but like his poems, it fully expresses his personality. What is contained in this is the self-confidence that "I am born with talent and will be useful."

The writing art of "Books with Han Jingzhou" is characterized by ups and downs and ups and downs. From ancient times to the present, ancient people have compared Han Dynasty to Zongda three or four times. The words come gradually, but the meaning is hidden behind the words, which is thought-provoking. Some good sentences have been passed down to this day, such as "dragon and phoenix fly away", "stand out", "feel proud" and so on. The allusions are also used appropriately and play a role in inspiring Han Chaozong. A brief introduction to Li Bai, the author of "Books with Han Jingzhou"

Li Bai (701-762), also known as Taibai and Qinglian Jushi, was a romantic poet of the Tang Dynasty and was hailed as the "Immortal of Poetry" by later generations. Han nationality, whose ancestral home is Chengji, Longxi, was born in Suiye City (then part of the Tang Dynasty, now part of Kyrgyzstan). He moved with his father to Mianzhou, Jiannan Road when he was 4 years old. Li Bai has more than a thousand poems and essays in existence, and the "Collection of Li Taibai" has been handed down to the world. He died of illness in 762 at the age of 61. His tomb is in Dangtu, Anhui today, and there are memorial halls in Jiangyou, Sichuan, and Anlu, Hubei. Li Bai lived in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. He left Shu alone at the age of twenty-five and began to roam extensively, from Dongting to the Xiangjiang River in the south, to Wu and Yue in the east, and lived in Anlu and Yingshan. It was not until the first year of Tianbao (742) that Li Bai was summoned to Chang'an to worship the Imperial Academy due to the recommendation of the Taoist priest Wu Jun. Later, because he could not be accepted by the powerful, he only stayed in Beijing for two and a half years, and was given gold and released, and then he wandered around. Roaming life. Li Bai and Du Fu are both called "Li Du". His poems not only reflected the prosperity of the times, but also exposed the dissoluteness and corruption of the ruling class, showing his positive spirit of contempt for the powerful, resisting the constraints of tradition, and pursuing freedom and ideals.
