Longxi Li Shilang

Everyone knows Li Yi from "The Biography of Huo Xiaoyu" and accuses him of being heartless and heartless, but no one knows the life of this frontier poet hidden in the annals of history. In the last years of Tianbao, the Silk Road in Liangzhou was prosperous. Li Yi, the tenth son of the Li family in Longxi, was born in Guzang, and secretly promised to be with the Hu girl Ali for life. The Anshi Rebellion suddenly broke out, elite troops from Hexi were transferred eastward, Tubo cavalry invaded Liangzhou, their hometown was burned, and his lover left for the Western Regions. The fourteen-year-old boy has since embarked on an endless road of exile. After traveling to Chang'an, his family fortune declined, and he failed to succeed in many trials, so he became a small county captain and followed the orders of his family to marry the Lu family of Fan Yang. He spent his whole life together and separated frequently, with his first love in Liangzhou who could never go back, and his first wife who stayed with him and took care of the family. Seeing that the mountains and rivers of Tang Dynasty were broken and his official career was difficult, he abandoned his writing and joined the army. He rushed to the shogunate in Lingzhou, Jingzhou and Youzhou to guard the borders to resist Tibet. The frosty moon on Huile Peak, the sound of reed pipes, and the sentence "One night of conquest, all the people look back on their hometown" describe half a lifetime of wandering. Old friends died in battle and were separated one after another, their hometown was lost forever, and it was hard to achieve fame. There are no golden fingers, no comebacks against the odds, only scholars in troubled times, carrying the pain of broken home and country, separation of flesh and blood, spending half their lives on the frontier, writing a full volume of nostalgia epic. This book is true to both major and trivial matters. It puts aside thousands of years of opera prejudice and restores the real, affectionate and unrequited Longxi Li Julang.
