Kaiyuan fourteen years, Li Bai left Yangzhou, Chen Feng (now Henan Huaiyang) visited the provincial governor Li Yong, came to Songshan south of the Ruzhou, the thought of a concept of East Luoyang and Songshan East scenery, but because of money, had to travel to Nanyang. In Nanyang met the poet Cui Zongzhi, Cui Zongzhi invited Li Bai to his Songshan villasconstitute seclusion, and aspiring Li Bai did not agree, and once again missed Songshan. Shortly afterwards, Li Bai traveled to Hubei, Xiangyang, where he met the famous poet Meng Haoran, a hermit of Songshan who lived in seclusion, and he admired Songshan very much.
Kaiyuan twenty years autumn, the thirty year old Li Bai came to Songshan, to visit Songshan sites. The prince of Jin Sheng blown across the crane the Li Bai time, but after a lapse of more than a thousand years, nowhere to be found, but wrote "Ganyu" a poem: "I love the prince of Jin Tao, Yi Luo bin. Gold bone is not destroyed, jade Yan from Changchun. Poor Fuqiu, Yi and have sex. Raised a cloud, or clear xie. Er Xian go far already, his empty dream." Heard that Songshan has a female Taoist priest coke division, in Shaoshi Shan Shishi, already more than 200 years old, looks only fifty or sixty years old, do not eat grains, body and light body health, walking fast, thousands of miles away, so Li Bai in Songshan start at dawn and arrive at dusk, look around. Looking for a number of days, and even Jiao Jiao division of the shadow did not see, and had to write a "Songshan Jiao Jiao division" a poem, expressed willingness to follow her "learn Fairy" mood. We boarded Songshan Junji peak on the way, this poem can enjoy the moment in the palace southwest on the steep mountain.
Then, Li Bai went to the mountains to Songshan Ying Yang, Ziyun mountain to visit old friends yuan Dan Hill, two people together, as "emperor xi lie" from laurel hidden, do not envy the the Peach Garden "live happily. See the new Qiu yuan Dan Bu Ju Ying Yang don't industry in the north, Ma Ling, Song Lian Feng Qiu, South Cheomseongdae Lu Tai, and Ru Hai, dolomite trees, beautiful scenery, Li Bai was very admire, and really want to Yuan Dan Qiu a piece of seclusion, Yuan Dan Qiu seclusion is yearning, and one after another write down the "thematic", "Dan Qiu Shan Ju Qiu Ying Yang Ju" theta Dan, "the concept of" Wushan yuan Dan Qiu, Qiu yuan Dan screen "song" poems etc.. Among them, "Yuan Dan Qiu song" is the most famous: "Yuan Dan Hill, love immortal.". Clean drinking in Yingchuan, evening also Songcen of purple smoke, thirty peaks with long. With long, silent Star Rainbow, riding a dragon new wind. The Henghe sea and the days pass, I know your heart is infinite." Yuan Dan Qiu also specifically asked Li Bai to "Dan Qiu Shan Ju" thematic poem written in a large Hengpi, please craftsmen mounting rear suspension cottage wall in the mountain.That winter, Li Bai left Dengfeng and arrived in Luoyang, Longmen. Sojourn in Luoyang to spring Li Bai in a moonlit night heard someone playing the flute "fold" that sparked his willow, homesickness, wrote a Los Angeles "Wen Di": "whose Yudi dark fly sound, scattered into the spring over Los angeles. The nocturne fold willow, not who love hometown." So he departed and returned to his house in Anlu. This time, Li Bai stayed in the Songshan area for nearly half a year.
Five years later, Li Bai returned from Taiyuan to Luoyang. Yuan Yan's father is a Taiyuan prefect, before his departure, in addition to Li Bai a lot of money, gave a valuable fur collar and a five flowers. Luoyang met Dan Qiu Shu Yuan from the interview back, Yuan Dan Qiu invited Li Bai to his home for Li Bai Ying Yang, declined due to miss daughter. The second day, has returned to Yang Yuan Ying Dan Qiu and sent to a poem letter with Cen hoon, said long poem has long been a rare opportunity to have Zhijiu treatment, so please be sure to stand in Yangshan Li Bai. So Li Bai came to Songshan the second time.
Ying Li Bai is in Yangshan, revisiting, and it was the first time met Cen hoon, but because each other also has long grok Qiu yuan dan. One day, three people together to visit Songshan Ziyun mountain, overlooking the Yellow River, east winds, like dropping from the sky, panoramic Luoyang. Back to the mountain, the bright moon rising, while they drink in the hospital, and talk with eloquence. Finally talk about poetry, cen Hoon and Li Bai immediately wrote a song for "Cen Hoon see found, as Yuan Dan Hill on one another, to see the poem called", since the ratio of Huang, "in his drink wine, very suddenly became drunk, underappreciated Li Bai alcohol, wrote down famous" cursive ". After living for a while, Li Bai said goodbye to the two of them and went home and wrote down the poems of Ying Yang and Yuan dan.
In addition, Li Bai has another date with Songshan. Li Bai later wandering Mount Lu, Mount Holyoke area, Yuan Dan Qiu from Songshan invited Li Bai, this time the determined "the family", "long to return", therefore wrote "Songshan Yi Yuan Dan Qiu Shan Ju": "the Ziyun mountain road, the wind is not reduced...... You can fold the cinnamon, and I'll pluck the orchid. A good wife by Luan, Yin Fei love. Visit from carrying immortal elixir." But I can't find Li Bai's record of revisiting Songshan from the information on hand.
