Bai Juyi has never met Yang Guifei. How did he write such a famous sentence as "if she but turned her head and smiled, there were cast a hundred spells"?

Bai Juyi has never seen Yang Guifei, but Yang Guifei's reputation is known all over the world, and a gifted scholar like Bai Juyi has certainly heard of it, so he can easily imagine how beautiful Yang Guifei is to fascinate Tang Minghuang.

Since ancient times, heroes have been sad about beauty. In many of Bai Juyi's works, there are very good descriptions about women. Whether it is Pipaxing or other works, the meticulous description about women can be said to be the best among the poets in the Tang Dynasty. It is precisely because of knowing women and being able to portray women vividly that Bai Juyi has always been a very legendary existence among the poets in the Tang Dynasty.

The Tang Dynasty is a very romantic dynasty. I think only the Tang Dynasty can have a woman who dares to write in the palace like this. It is precisely because Bai Juyi is a very delicate poet who dares to love and write that he can be admired by so many people in later generations.

So what is Bai Juyi's feelings for Yang Guifei? From many of his poems, we can read a feeling of heart-stirring. Personally, I feel that Bai Juyi's feelings for Yang Guifei may not only be a feeling of courtiers treating empress, but often the mood is closer to that of fans meeting their favorite idols in the present sense.

It is precisely because of such complex emotions that Bai Juyi's poems have many levels. It is precisely because of these levels that his poems can be passed down through the ages, and they are still very good poems after the ages. It is also because of his poems that Yang Guifei has gained more fame.
