Bai Juyi's above requirements for poetry have only one purpose, that is, to make up for current politics. So he went on to say: "In short, for the monarch, for the minister, for the people, for things, for things, not for writing." (Preface to New Yuefu) In Nine Books of the Same Origin, he reviewed his early creation and said, "Since I came to Korea, I have grown older and read more. Every time he talks to others, he asks more current events; Every time you read history, you should seek truth and Taoism, knowing that articles are written in time and poems and songs are written in things.
Pipa Xing and Song of Eternal Sorrow are Bai Juyi's most successful works, and the outstanding feature of their artistic expression is the strengthening of lyric factors. Compared with the previous narrative poems, although these two works also use narrative and description to express events, they can no longer simplify the events and only use a central event and two or three main characters to structure the whole article.

Bai Juyi's official achievements;
1, Bachelor of Hanlin
The early period is the period of helping the world, and the later period is the period of being independent. Bai Juyi was a scholar at the age of 29 in the 16th year of Zhenyuan (800). He has served as provincial school secretary, school assistant and Hanlin bachelor. During the Yuanhe period, he was left as a gleaning, and wrote a lot of satirical poems, including ten masterpieces of Qin Zhongyin and fifty poems of New Yuefu, which made the dignitaries gnash their teeth and grieve.
2. Jiangzhou Sima
In June of the 10th year of Yuanhe, when Bai Juyi was 44 years old, Prime Minister Wu and imperial envoy Zhong Cheng Pei Du were assassinated. Wu died on the spot and Pei Du was seriously injured. For such a big event, the eunuch group and the old bureaucratic group in power at that time kept calm and were in no hurry to deal with it. Bai Juyi was very angry, so he wrote to urge the murderer to be severely punished to punish the law.
3. Hangzhou Secretariat
In the fifteenth year of Yuanhe, Tang Xianzong died suddenly in Chang 'an, and Tang Muzong succeeded to the throne. Mu Zong loves talents, recalled Chang 'an, and became a foreign minister, doctor, doctor and sinologist. However, at that time, North Korea was in chaos, with ministers fighting for power and profit and infighting. Mu Zong is politically lazy and doesn't listen to advice. So he asked for his release. In 822, Bai Juyi was appointed as the secretariat of Hangzhou.
