Li Ye was born for poetry, and he was also trapped by poetry all his life

Eight to " Li Ye.

From near to far east and west, to deep to shallow clear stream.

As high as the sun and the moon, from relatives to husband and wife.

This poem is written in a simple way, but it has the deepest philosophy in the world.

The one who wrote this poem is the amorous talented girl Li Ye, she was able to write poems in her childhood, "After time, her mind is chaotic", a residual sentence seems to have become an obsession in her heart, so she has been pursuing love all her life and hopes to have a happy marriage.

But in that era of "a woman is virtuous if she has no talent", talent became the original sin, she fell in love with many people, but no one was willing to marry her sincerely, and finally she saw through the favor and wrote "Eight Solstice". Although love failed to go as she wished, the poems written for it made her famous everywhere. In the end, he was named because of the poem, and died because of the poem.

When Li Ye was six years old, her father asked her to write poems on the fly, she looked at the roses blooming in the court, and said slowly: "After time, my mind is chaotic." ”

Because of this homonym, her father thought she was precocious and was afraid that she would lose her virtue, so when she was eleven years old, her father sent her to Yuzhenguan to be a female Taoist, and her name was changed from Li Ye to Li Jilan.

In that era when male and female monasticism was popular, in Taoism, it fueled her nature. By the age of sixteen, she had become a beautiful, elegant woman.

After that, she began to travel, mingling with many literati and scholars, playing the piano and talking about poetry. The girl's feelings also began to sprout, and she wrote her longing for love into a poem "Feeling Interest":

Chaoyun and twilight rain town follow, and there is a return date for people who go to Yanlai.

The jade pillow only knows how to cry, and the silver light is empty when it sleeps.

Looking up at the bright moon and turning the meaning, looking down at the waves and wanting to send words.

But I remember the first time I heard the song of Fenglou, teaching people to be lonely and lovesick.

The Biography of Tang Caizi recorded such a story: "Li Jilan tasted all the sages in Wucheng Kaiyuan Temple, and knew that Liu Changqing had a serious illness in the river, and said: "The mountain is good at sunset." Liu Yingsheng said: "The birds are happy to have it." "Laughing at the table, the commentators are both beautiful. ”

It means that when Li Jilan was in Kaiyuan Temple in Wucheng County, when she was gathering with literati and scholars, she knew that Liu Changqing had a "serious disease", that is, "hernia". If you have a hernia, the intestines will sag, making **swelling**, and you need to hold it up with a cloth to reduce the pain. She used Tao Yuanming's poem "Mountain Qi (Hernia) Day and Sunset" to laugh at Liu Changqing's hernia disease.

After listening to this, Liu Changqing was not angry, and also replied to her with a poem by Tao Yuanming: "The (heavy) birds are happy to have a trust", and everyone laughed heartily after hearing it.

She is known for her boldness, but she is even more keen on the pursuit of love, and she has been in love with many people, but none of them have achieved positive results.

In Yanxi, she met her first love, Zhu Fang. She once secretly rowed in Yanxi and met Zhu Fang, who lived in seclusion, and he had good looks, talent, and knowledge in her eyes, so she fell in love with him at first sight. And he had already heard of her talent, and he wanted to get acquainted with her for a long time, and after learning that she was Li Jilan, his heart was also moved.

Since then, they have been leaning on each other, touring the mountains and rivers, tasting tea and writing poems, drinking and singing, and spent a good time of affection.

And when she was still intoxicated with happiness, the parting came quietly, he left, leaving behind a poem "Farewell Li Jilan":

The new flowers on the ancient shore bloom a branch, and there is separation under the flowers on the shore.

Don't brush the sleeves of the flowers, it is when the pedestrian's intestines are broken.

The moon is silent, the moon is silent, the moon is bright, and people are affectionate.

After farewell, lovesickness is like the moon, and the water between the clouds reaches the layer city.

After he left, she was still fantasizing that one day they would meet again, and she said that she was lovesick, so she wrote a poem "Send Zhu Fang" to Zhu Fang:

Looking at the water and trying to climb the mountain, the mountain is high and the lake is wide.

Lovesickness has no dawn, looking at each other for years.

Lush mountains and trees, and wild flowers.

Say goodbye to infinite affection, and say it when we meet.

Li Jilan also has a deep relationship with the handsome and talented Yan Bojun.

She seems to have lived a glue-like "husband and wife" life with him, because she wrote a poem "Sending Yan Twenty-six to Yan County":

Outside the flowing water, the lonely boat is returning to the west.

Affection is everywhere in the grass, everywhere.

The concubine dreamed through Wu Yuan, and Jun traveled to Yanxi.

Returning to visit each other, Mo Xue Ruan Lang is a fan.

After he left, he wrote letters to Li Jilan, but he never fulfilled her dream of being a "true couple". After that, Li Jilan wrote a poem "The Book of Yan Bojun":

Love comes to the mirror and combs his hair lazily, and the twilight rain Xiao Xiao Tingshu is autumn.

It's no wonder that the dry jade chopsticks are only melancholy for the silver hook.

All encounters in the world are reunions after a long absence. Li Jilan met her childhood sweetheart Lu Yu in Huzhou.

Lu Yu was abandoned after birth, adopted by Zen Master Zhiji, and then fostered in the Li family for a few years, he and Li Jilan played together when they were children, grew up together, and the two had no guesses. After the Li family moved, he had to return to the monastery, and the two were separated from each other.

At this time, Lu Yu had not yet become a "tea saint", he traveled everywhere, just to study the tea ceremony.

She met him again, and he made tea for her, and the mellow tea soup warmed her stomach and heart.

Lu Yu's careful care made her feel warm. It is said that Li Jilan was seriously ill once, and after Lu Yu found out, he boiled medicine and soup for her every day, and took care of her carefully.

She was very grateful for his care, and wrote a thank you poem for him, "The Sick on the Lake is Sick and Happy Lu Hong is Coming":

In the past, the frost moon passed, and now there is a bitter mist.

When they met, they were still sick, and they wanted to cry first.

Strongly persuaded the Tao family to drink, and also chanted a poem of thanks.

Occasionally, I get drunk, and even more.

Lu Yu left, and Li Jilan pinned her hopes on Lu Yu's friend Jiaoran again.

Jiaoran is talented, has an extraordinary bearing, and Li Jilan, who is dedicated to courtship, gradually became infatuated with Jiaoran with her heart, so she mustered up the courage to write a love poem "Vegetarian Fish and Friends":

The ruler is like residual snow, and it is a double carp.

If you want to know what's in your heart, look at the book in your belly.

The goddess came to try it and dyed her clothes.

The Zen heart can't afford it, and the old flowers are returned.

Li Jilan had no choice but to reply: "The Zen heart is like mud, and it doesn't fly with the east wind."

After four relationships, she no longer wants love, and she has seen through the warmth and coldness of human feelings, she knows that all those who want to get to know her are just because of her talent, and in the end they will abandon her because of her talent, so she wrote the poem "Eight Solstice" to the truth:

From near to far east and west, to deep to shallow clear stream.

As high as the sun and the moon, from relatives to husband and wife.

There is no talent and many diseases, but the false name reaches nine times.

Shame on the crown of the flowery hair, more ashamed of the mirror decay.

Chixin North Que follows the grass, and the South Mountain looks at the old peak.

The laurel tree can not stay wild guests, and the sand gulls go out of Pupu to meet.

In her later years, the rebel general Zhu Zhu occupied Chang'an and became the emperor, and Zhu Zhu forced Li Jilan to compose a poem, and she wrote an ode poem in desperation.

Later, Tang Dezong returned to Chang'an, and after learning about this, he killed Li Jilan.

Throughout her life, she has always followed her inner needs and emotions, she is not only a talented woman, but also a woman like a man, she travels to the south of the Yangtze River, passionately and boldly pursuing love, looking for a harbor. It's just that in that era of poetry, no one seemed to want to marry a pretty female poet. Her love stories have only beginnings and no results. And the poems she wrote made her famous through the ages, and finally became famous because of the poems.

Her life was born for poetry, trapped by poetry, and died because of poetry.

The prosperity will eventually return to dust, and Mo Dao will be speechless until dusk.
