That year, Li Bai was 58 years old, close to the age of sixties, but because he was on the wrong team, he joined the Yongwang Li Xuan shogunate, Yongwang was defeated, he was implicated, and he was exiled.

Li bai

There are two Yelang in history, one is "", located in the area of Tongzi County, Guizhou Province today, which is also the birthplace of the idiom "". The other is located in Huaihua, Hunan.

Li Bai set off from Xunyang and began to go to Yelang. Unexpectedly, good luck hit his head, and when he walked to the White Emperor City, the imperial court announced an amnesty due to the drought in Guanzhong, so Li Bai was able to regain his freedom.

Therefore, Li Bai's trip to Yelang ended hastily.

And during this period of exile, he heard that his friend Wang Changling was demoted, where was the place of exile? Li Bai's poem said a sentence "". It can be seen from this that the place where Wang Changling is going is also a place called "".

Is this "" Li Bai didn't go there. A lot of information shows that Wang Changling went to Hunan's "", which is the current "", and some say that it is "".

Mysterious Yoro

So, does the "" in the poem really refer to it, or does it refer to all the remote and barren places?

If it is a real reference, then "", the west of Yelang, can never be the "" in the Tongzi area of Guizhou, let alone the "" in Hunan, and the west of Yelang County is the eastern part of Guizhou Province.

Therefore, I think that the word "" here should be a virtual reference, referring to all barren and remote places, and the word "" is only designed to conform to the rhyme of this poem.

Stone carvings of Yoro Country

For Li Bai, it doesn't matter where his good friend Wang Changling is exiled. The remoteness and hardships of the penal colony were all the same, and they all had to be faced and endured by him. It is meaningless for him to deliberately point out the place of exile in the poem, as long as he can express his thoughts and concerns for his friends.

Judging from the background of Li Bai's poem, he himself has been quite difficult, but he still remembers his friend Wang Changling in his heart, and this kind of mind is too valuable.

The Seven Absolute Holy Hand Wang Changling

It is sad and lamentable, a "" penal colony, which leads to the different fates of the two poets. Li Bai was demoted for political reasons, but he was still able to be pardoned; Wang Changling was slandered and degraded just because he was not disciplined enough, and he was not pardoned, which has to be embarrassing!

In this way, Li Bai's luck is not ordinarily good, and Wang Changling finally died in the position of Long Biao.
