As the saying goes, the font size reflects one's life interests. "Green Lotus" was an image in Taoism in ancient times. The green lotus is a Taoist sacred object, symbolizing the purest, most wonderful, most divine and most holy. Li Bai believed in Lao Zhuang's theory and sought immortality everywhere. He once asked Taoist Gao Tianshi to teach him Taoism in Ziji Palace in Qizhou and became a Taoist priest.

Unable to enter the temple, he went to the "Jianghu", his Her temperament is as noble as a lotus, just like in his poem "Clear water brings out hibiscus, and nature removes the carvings."

Yan Yu: Li and Du are both good and bad. Taibai has one or two wonderful things that Zimei cannot describe; Zimei has one or two wonderful things that Taibai cannot describe. The beauty of Zi cannot be compared to the elegance of Taibai. Taibai cannot be the melancholy of Zimei. Taibai's "Sleepwalking Tianmu Yin", "Far and Far Away", etc., are so beautiful that they cannot be described. Zimei's "Northern Expedition", "Traveling of Troops and Chariots", "Farewell to the Elderly", etc. cannot be written in Taibai.

It may be said that he first read and appreciated an article called "The Road to Shu is Difficult" to a close friend, and was loved by the Ming Dynasty. Isn't it a good thing that a person with little talent is lucky to be able to ride at the right time? Otherwise. What is contained in white is not just what is. Today we look at his works such as "Farewell", "Long Sickness", "Wu Qi Qu", "Ming Gao Song", "Liang Yuan Yin", "Tian Mu Yin", "Lushan Ballad", etc. They are long and short in rhyme, driving the driving force. The momentum is almost as high as the autumn atmosphere in Nanshan. Although Shaoling still has some concessions, the remaining sons are trivial. ("Collection of Tang Poems")
