After being released by luck, he was demoted to Huangzhou. The second time he was demoted: in the fourth year of Yuan You (1089), Su Shi, who had been transferred back to Beijing, had another disagreement with the old party on the issue of abolishing the exemption law, and had an understanding of Hangzhou. Yuan You was recalled in six years, Jia Yi and others falsely accused him, and Su Shi requested to go abroad, and was sent to Yingzhou, Yangzhou and Dingzhou successively. During this period, he continued to carry out some reforms within his power, and was demoted for the third time: Shao Shengyuan, Song Zhezong was in charge, the new party came to power, and the old minister of Yuan You was demoted. Su Shi was demoted again and again, from Yingzhou (now Yingde, Guangdong) and Huizhou to Danzhou (now Danxian, Hainan). It was not until Fu Yuan's third year (1 100) that Song Huizong was pardoned and returned to the north. Jane Zhongjing Guoyuan (1 10 1) died in Changzhou in July.
