The mystery of Li Bai s ancestors? The mystery of Li Bai s life experience, who is Li Bai s ancestor

Li Bai's ancestors were the Hu people of Central Asia, because they admired Chinese culture, and it happened that the emperor's surname was Li, so they were also surnamed Li.

Li Bai was born in Broken Leaf City, which is now Kyrgyzstan, and his ancestral home is Chengji, Longxi (now Qin'an County, Tianshui City, Gansu Province).

In the second year of the Tang Dynasty Suzong to Germany (757), Li Bai participated in the Yongwang Li Lan shogunate, ** entered Xunyang Prison, in August and September, after the rescue of the ambassador Cui Lian and Song Ruosi in the imperial history, he was sick and lay in Susongshan around October. At this time, when Prime Minister Zhang Hao led his army to Suiyang (in present-day Henan) and pacified the Anshi rebels, Li Bai wrote two poems of "Gift to Zhang Xianghao" to him. In the second song, Li Bai recounts the exploits of his ancestors:

The family is from Longxi, and he was first a Han border general. The merit covers the world, and the name flies on the clouds. The hard battle is not waiting, and the rich man is quite melancholy.

It is rumored that Kongtong is brave and strong. The grandson of the martyr, the king of Judah, a hundred generations of gods.

The poet claimed to be a native of Chengji, Longxi (present-day Qin'an County, Gansu), and identified himself as the twenty-fifth grandson of Li Guang, a general of the Han Dynasty. At that time, Li Guang devoted himself to the cause of fighting against the Xiongnu, experienced more than 70 battles, his spirit was as strong as the autumn wind, his strategy was amazing, and his exploits were admired, but due to unexpected setbacks, he was not able to get the title of marquis, which made future generations all regret. His heroic spirit and strong feelings were passed on to his children and grandchildren, and they were still vigorously maintained after a hundred generations.

The poet proudly said that he himself was one of Li Guang's descendants. Coincidentally, the Li Tang royal family also believed that they were descendants of Li Guang. At that time, the descendants of the flying general Li Guang had a group settled in Longxi Chengji, which was the famous Longxi Li clan in the Tang Dynasty.

Li Bai and the Li Tang royal family invariably claimed that it was the Li family of Longxi, so it seems that Li Bai and the Li Tang royal family are indeed quite close.

Today, however, many experts point out that the Tang people are not as honest as we think. At that time, the Wang clan was powerful and had a high status, and many people liked to pretend to be surnames, what Qinghe Cui clan, Taiyuan Wang clan, Xingyang Zheng clan were overwhelming, and even the Li Tang royal family was suspected of impersonating the Li clan in Longxi, and the origin was quite unknown. The Li Tang royal family used the power in their hands to legitimize their bloodline, but Li Bai's clan failed to be among them.

Li Bai, whose name is too white, is known as Qinglian Jushi, also known as "Qi Xianren", a great romantic poet of the Tang Dynasty in China, and is respected as "poet immortal" by later generations, and most of his poems are mainly to describe landscapes and express inner emotions. The poetry is majestic and bold. He and Du Fu are called "Big Li Du", and Li Shangyin and Du Mu are called "Little Li Du".

Li Bai Li Bai's ancestral home is Chengji, Longxi (now south of Jingning County, Pingliang City, Gansu Province), and was born on February 28, 701 (the sixteenth day of the first month of the summer calendar in the first year of Chang'an, Sichuan Province) in Qinglian Township, Jiangyou City, Sichuan Province. Another theory is that his father was born in the city of Broken Leaves (present-day Tokmak City, Kyrgyzstan), which was relegated to the Western Regions of Central Asia in the Central Plains, and moved back to Changlong County, Mianzhou, Sichuan Province (present-day Jiangyou City, Sichuan Province) at the age of four. His father, Li Ke, has unknown life deeds.

Li Bai was born in the Tang Dynasty, and most of his life was spent wandering, traveling most of China. At the age of 20, he went out of Sichuan alone and began to roam extensively, reaching the Xiangjiang River in Dongting in the south, Wu and Yue in the east, and living in Anlu (now Anlu City, Hubei Province) and Yingshan (now Guangshui City, Hubei Province). He traveled far and wide, hoping to make friends and meet celebrities in order to be introduced to high positions and fulfill his political ideals and aspirations.

However, after ten years of roaming, nothing was accomplished. He continued north to Taiyuan and Chang'an (present-day Xi'an, Shaanxi Province), eastward to Qi and Shandong, and lived in Rencheng, Shandong (present-day Jining, Shandong Province). By this time, he had made many famous friends and wrote a large number of excellent poems.

Li Bai was reluctant to take the exam to become an official, hoping to rely on his own talent and go to the official career through the recommendation of others, but he has not been appreciated. He once wrote a "Letter with Han Jingzhou" to Han Jingzhou, a famous scholar of the dynasty, to recommend himself, but he did not receive a reply. Until the first year of Tianbao (742), due to the recommendation of the Taoist priest Wu Yun, Li Bai was summoned to Chang'an to worship Hanlin, and the style of the article shocked the world.

Li Baichu was appreciated by Xuanzong because of his talent, and later because he could not be tolerated by the powerful, he abandoned his official position after only three years in Beijing, and still continued his wandering life. In the second year of the Anshi Rebellion (756), he was angry about the difficulties and participated in the shogunate of Eiwang Ri Lin. Unfortunately, King Yong and Suzong had a struggle for the throne, and after the defeat, Li Bai was implicated and exiled to Yelang (in present-day Guizhou), where he was pardoned on the way.

In his later years, he wandered in the southeast, and Li Yangbing, the uncle of the Yi clan, was the commander of Tu County, and soon died of illness.

Li Bai, a rich man, a rich second generation.
