Chapter 834: Sad Bai Juyi
"Hahaha, little immortal, please tell me, please tell me," Bai Juyi laughed. It was not him who led the little immortal astray, it was the little immortal himself who mentioned it, and he was just curious.
"In fact, there is another one about you, Senior Bai Juyi, and that is your love story. It is said that you, Senior Bai Juyi, had a first love named Xiang Ling, but because of your status, your mother prevented you two from being together.
Alas, it was a very bumpy love story anyway, and in the end, you two didn't end up together, and then you, Senior Bai Juyi, let yourself go," Li Wu looked at Bai Juyi with some sympathy. She felt that Bai Juyi's mother was too strict and had a strong desire for control.
Bai Juyi grew old at a young age, all thanks to his mother. Her mother packed Bai Juyi's schedule every day so tightly that he didn't even have much time to rest. He was so tired every day that he was almost dying.
Li Wu thought that if she had to read for more than ten hours every day, forget it, just kill her, she can't read anything.
If it's novels or something like that, reading for more than ten hours is no problem at all, but if she is asked to read and study for more than ten hours, she will be killed in a matter of minutes.
I think there are still many people like her. Don't deny it, there must be a lot.
Qu Yuan and Tao Yuanming looked at Bai Juyi with gossipy eyes. They didn't expect there was such a thing. Love and romance were dispensable to them.
It’s not that important anyway.
In front of the sky curtain, Xiang Ling couldn't help crying when she heard this. She had never married and had been waiting for Bai Juyi, but in the end, they were not destined to be together.
However, Bai Juyi's mother just sneered and didn't think she had done anything wrong. She did it for her son's good.
What is Xiang Ling's identity and what is her son's identity? They are not a good match and are not worthy of her son. Her son just doesn't understand that she is doing this for his own good. Why doesn't he understand and still blames her?
This made Bai Juyi's mother very sad and upset. She felt that she did everything for her son's good, but her son resented and hated her.
Many people in the barrage were talking about this matter, feeling sorry for the two. Some thought that Bai Juyi's mother did the wrong thing, while others thought that she did the right thing. Everyone had their own opinions.
When Bai Juyi heard the little immortal mention Xiang Ling, he opened his mouth and had a thousand words to say, but in the end he could not say anything. After all, he felt sorry for Xiang Ling.
“But I’ll talk about this later.
Mr. Bai Juyi, you were called the Poetry Demon by later generations. You were already famous in Chang'an when you were only 16 years old. You wrote more than poems in your lifetime, making you the poet with the most surviving poems in the Tang Dynasty.
Moreover, every time you finished writing a poem, Mr. Bai Juyi, you would read it to an illiterate old lady, so your poems are easy to understand.
You also wrote your first love at the end of "Song of Everlasting Sorrow" and passed it on to the common people. You are even worshipped as Manjusri Bodhisattva by the common people. How do you feel at this moment, Mr. Bai Juyi?"
Li Wu blinked her big eyes and looked at him. Bai Juyi looked unhappy and said, "That's not necessary. This damn little life has been destroyed by our Tang Dynasty. Whoever is willing to worship it can do so." Hearing about the little life, he was extremely disgusted. Why did they dare to worship him as Manjushri Bodhisattva? They were not worthy of having such a little life. They were a group of uncivilized savages.
Qu Yuan and Tao Yuanming's faces were also full of disgust. They hated their daily lives to a great extent.
When the ancestors in front of the sky curtain heard about Xiaorizi, they all felt disgusted. Many dynasties said in the barrage that they were about to conquer and destroy Xiaorizi. The dynasties that had already destroyed Xiaorizi were speechless. No, why haven't they destroyed Xiaorizi yet? This is too slow. What are they doing?
Others said that it is not possible to destroy them just like that. They have to build ships or something. Did they have ships in the past?
"Senior Bai Juyi, what you said is right. Those good days are indeed not worthy. If I could see with my own eyes the demise of those good days, I don't know how happy I would be." There is no Chinese who does not hate such a good life and even wish the country would be destroyed. If she could see it with her own eyes, she would need no words to describe how happy she would be. This is the dream of many Chinese people.
Hearing what the little fairy said, the three of them laughed and said, "Little fairy, although you didn't see it with your own eyes, we have destroyed it, so you can rest assured."
Li Wu nodded and said, "Senior Bai Juyi, you are right."
"It's a pity that Xiao Rizi didn't exist at that time, otherwise it would have been destroyed. But that little place is pretty good," Qu Yuan said. Ever since they knew about Xiao Rizi, they went looking for the place and they did find it, but there was no one there, which made them very disappointed.
"Little immortal, please continue talking about Bai Juyi's descendants," Qu Yuan said, and began to eat. He couldn't finish the food that was just given to him.
"Well, Mr. Bai Juyi, your courtesy name is Letian and you were born in Xinzheng, Henan.
The Bai family is a small bureaucratic family whose profession has been studying for generations.
Not long after you were born, Mr. Bai Juyi, unrest broke out in Henan, causing the people to suffer.
Although your family is relatively well-off, your mother is quite strict in disciplining you.
When you, Bai Juyi, were five years old, your mother began to teach you to compose poetry, and by the age of nine you had already mastered the rhyme and rhythm.
Your mother packed your study schedule very full. You studied poetry and songs during the day and recited Confucian classics at night, alternating day and night, and you didn't even get enough sleep.
To the extent that later on, Mr. Bai Juyi, you were so tired that you developed sores in your mouth and tongue, calluses on your elbows, and even had premature gray hair at a young age.
Senior Bai Juyi, you are so miserable. I can't live a day like this. Although I let you study for your future, you should combine work and rest. You can't study too much and tire yourself out. Health is the most important thing," Li Wu frowned. If it were her, she would have been driven crazy long ago. She felt that Bai Juyi's mother was similar to many people today.
She keeps saying that it's for the good of the child, everything she does is for the child, everything is for the child. The child is almost dying of exhaustion, but she can't see it.
"Here, health is the most important," Qu Yuan and Tao Yuanming looked at Bai Juyi and couldn't help but feel sympathy. They originally thought that Bai Juyi's hair turned white because he loved studying too much, but they never thought that his hair turned white because he was forced by his mother.
"That's right, just like the immortal said, we need to combine work and rest to achieve success," Tao Yuanming also nodded.
The ancestors in front of the sky curtain have their own opinions on this. Many people think that one should study hard from a young age so that he will have a bright future. But some people think that health is the most important. Do they have to force their children to get sick?
Many mothers think that Bai Juyi's mother was wrong. There was nothing wrong in letting Bai Juyi study, but her daily schedule was filled with so many things that he didn't even have enough time to sleep. How could that be acceptable? After all, he needed to sleep well and be in good health.
Bai Juyi's mother started crying. She did all that for Bai Juyi's own good. Why, why didn't they understand her?
