Li Bai became very famous after he was summoned to the imperial court

No, Li Bai was praised by people for his poetry and good sentences before he was called into the palace, so he was very famous before entering the palace.

No, Li Bai was summoned to the palace because of his fame.

Li Longji, also known as Tang Xuanzong, Xuanzong admired Li Bai's poetry, and it is said that he enjoyed reading Li Bai's works. He also invited Li Bai to the palace and gave him gifts and rewards.

However, despite his admiration for Li Bai's poetry, Xuanzong did not allow him to become an official. This is most likely because Li Bai's unconventional and carefree lifestyle does not conform to the strict Confucian values expected of ****. Li Bai is also a lifelong drinker, which may be seen as a negative trait.

In addition, Li Bai's poems often deal with themes of personal freedom and individual expression, which are at odds with the values of the Tang court, which focused on maintaining social order and stability.

In short, Tang Xuanzong admired Li Bai's poetry and liked to read his works, but he did not allow him to become a ** due to his non-traditional lifestyle and the fact that his poems involved topics that did not conform to the values of the court.

Tang Xuanzong valued Li Bai very much, and he thought that Li Bai was very talented. Because he felt that Li Bai was not suitable to be an official.

is a relatively talented person, his identity is not suitable for being an official, there is a fixed system for being an official, and it is not something that the emperor can use casually.

Because he was not suitable for officialdom, and he was a heavy drinker, he would tell the secrets of the court when he was drunk, so he was finally dismissed.

Well, if Li Bai is an official, he himself is incapable, and he often drinks, Tang Xuanzong doesn't like her very much, and he also offended Gao Lishi, the great eunuch next to Tang Xuanzong.

Because Li Bai has no intention of dealing with political affairs, he only wants to write poems and drink.

Li Baijiu offended Gao Lishi is one of them, and the other is that Li Bai is a little arrogant, plus he can't get used to the collusion of some powers, and he was put in small shoes, so he was resigned from his official position by Xuanzong.

The main reason is that Li Bai's tone is not tight enough, he likes to talk nonsense, and he doesn't want to give in to the powerful.

Because Li Bai offended the powerful, the most important thing was to offend the emperor.

He pretended to be on Zhongnan Mountain, not far from the ribs of the imperial city"Seclusion", gained a great reputation, and finally achieved the goal of being an official. Therefore,"Central South Shortcut"It refers to the shortest way to pursue fame and fortune, and it is also a convenient way to achieve goals. "The pen fell into a storm, and the poem became a crying ghost"。

It is the poet Du Fu's poem "Twenty Rhymes for Li Bai", which was written after he heard that Li Bai was exiled, which shows how outstanding Li Bai's talent and image are in Du Fu's eyes.

The imperial examination system is a way to select ** through the examination system in the history of our country, which began in the Sui Dynasty, determined in the Tang Dynasty, and improved in the Song Dynasty. There was a saying in the Tang Dynasty"Ye Minggong", which means to let the powerful people of the time know how outstanding their talents are. If you can win their approval, it will be twice the result with half the effort.

At the time, this was very common. Lu Xun once said in "Ke Jieting's Essays" that the selection of scholars in the Tang Dynasty was based on poetry and prose, but also on social reputation.

Therefore, when scholars enter Beijing to take the examination, they may have noticed their official names in advance, presented their poems and prose, and praised them. That's what it means. Among the literati of the Tang and Song dynasties, there was an unwritten perception that they despised those who dared to say that they wanted to be officials while studying.

Those literati often concealed their purpose of studying hard, obviously wanting to participate in the imperial examination and become an official, but deliberately showing that they did not want to be an official.

If you are not sure about your talent, you will choose to live in seclusion. In this way, people will say that he is virtuous, respect him more, and promote him. In this way, his fame will spread far and wide, and eventually he will be asked to become an official and achieve his goals.

In the Tang Dynasty, there were many people who became officials in this way, such as the famous Tang Dynasty poets Chen Ziang, Bai Juyi, and Wang Wei all started their careers in this way. Therefore, Li Bai chose to go"A shortcut to the south"And not a shameful thing.

The Tang Dynasty was the formative period of the imperial examination system, and this new type of talent selection system that sprouted in the Northern and Southern Dynasties has been used for more than a thousand years, and even the current various examinations are also the follow-up development of the imperial examination. And the poet immortal Li Bai, the era in which he lived was the period when the imperial examination system was gradually improved, and he himself was very keen on being an official, and he tried his best to become an official. But one thing is very strange, why did Li Bai, who loves to be an official, not take the imperial examination?

Is he trying to create a different image?

1.How did Li Bai get an official position for himself.

If you want to be an official, this is not a life pursuit of "tending to be inflammatory", hoping to be appreciated and realize your political talents, which can be said to be the wish of every scholar in that period. Li Bai is also one of them, for this reason, he also went to find the outstanding Taoist and vertical and horizontal master Zhao Rui in the Tang Dynasty, and learned from him the way of the king and the art of the emperor. Li Bai never concealed his desire to be in charge, and even for this, he could do more, such as patting sycophants, such as plugging the door upside down.

As a poet, Li Bai's sycophants are even more extraordinary, "You don't need to seal the marquis of ten thousand households in life, but I hope to know Han Jingzhou", which was written to the governor of Jingzhou, Shi Han Chaozong, to recommend himself. As a man, Li Bai's marriage is inevitable, he has married two wives, the first is the granddaughter of the former prime minister Xu Yushi, and the second is the granddaughter of the former prime minister Zong Chuke, both times are inverted sons-in-law. In addition, Li Bai also has two cohabiting women, and their status may not be high, after all, what is not recorded may not be very important.

2.Requirements of the imperial examination system.

And the imperial examination, in ancient times, when the family background was important, was not able to participate in any scholar or talented person. We know that in ancient times, agriculture was always emphasized and commerce was suppressed, so people from merchant families, or close relatives who were in business, were directly exempted from the examination. Think about it, businessmen were not looked down upon in the first place, and now, even their relatives feel that they are being dragged down by themselves, how bad it is.

In addition to this, sinners cannot take the exam afterwards. The ancestors committed a crime, and even though they were separated by generations, they could not participate in the imperial examination. Maybe it's out of political considerations, after all, if the sinner has a good exam score and gets the top prize, then the ancestor of the crime will be a little embarrassed at this time, but it is indeed easy to bury a lot of talents.

3.Why didn't Li Bai participate in the imperial examination?

As for why Li Bai did not participate in the imperial examination, he was not unwilling, but unable. Li Bai accounted for all the two mentioned above. Chen Yinke's analysis believes that Li Bai's ancestors were degraded to the Western Regions because of their crimes, but Guo Moruo believed that he was forced by a certain social environment and had to go into exile in the Western Regions.

Moreover, Li Bai can have spare money to travel all over the landscape, in addition to the funding of others, I am afraid that his own family also has capital.

In this way, Li Bai was not qualified to participate in the imperial examination, so it didn't matter if he wanted to, because he couldn't. Although he later came into contact with Tang Xuanzong through other channels, he was never able to fulfill his wish to "shelter the world's poor soldiers", perhaps, he can really only become a poet, not a politician.

Li Bai (February 8, 701, 762), the word Tan pants are too white, and the name is Qinglian Jushi. The poet of the Tang Dynasty in China, known as the poet immortal, the poet hero, and the star of Wenqu, is recognized as the most outstanding romantic poet in Chinese history. There is "Li Taibai Collection" handed down.

His works are imaginative, romantic and unrestrained, with bizarre artistic conception and talent; The poems are like flowing water, as if they were made in nature. Li Bai's poems have been recited for thousands of years, and many poems have become classics, such as drawing a knife to cut off the water and making the water flow, and borrowing wine to eliminate sorrow and sorrow. Li Bai's artistic achievements in poetry are considered the pinnacle of Chinese Romantic poetry.
