Hello, host! Dongpo is so famous, he must be a great man. 1. Youthful and frivolous Su Dongpo read some books when he was young. Because of his intelligence, he was often praised by his teachers. Rather arrogantly, he posted a couplet in front of his house: "Know all the characters in the world, read all the books in the world." Later, a white-haired old woman visited Su Shi holding a profound ancient book. Su Shi could not read the characters in the book, so the old woman used this to tactfully After criticizing Su Shi, Su Shi changed the couplet to "Strive to know all the characters in the world, and resolve to read all the books in the world" to encourage himself, and it has been passed down as a good talk ever since. 2. Su Shi "deceived" Su Shi, his teacher, was admitted to Jinshi and wrote an article in the Spring and Autumn Period called "On Punishment and Rewards: Honesty and Honesty", which contains the following paragraphs: In the time of Yao, Gao Tao was a scholar and he was about to kill someone. Gao Tao said, "Kill." "Three of the three", Yao said "the three of pardon", so the world was afraid of Gaotao's firmness in enforcing the law, but was happy about Yao's lenient punishment. Siyue said, "Gun can use it." Yao said, "No, Gun will order the tribe." After that, he said, "Try it." How could Yao not listen to Gao Tao's murder, but follow the four mountains and use Gun? However, the meaning of the saint can also be seen. Mei Shengyu, the judge at that time, admired Su Shi's article very much, but anyone with historical knowledge knows that Gao Tao was Shun's judicial officer. Is it related to Yao? Mei Shengyu didn't understand this. After reading it repeatedly, he asked Su Shi. Su Shi said that the answer was in "The Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms: The Biography of Kong Rong". However, after Mei Shengyu read it many times, he still couldn't find the source, so he Ask Su Shi again. Su Shi had no choice but to answer honestly that it was his own fabrication. Mei Shengyu was even more puzzled. Su Shi said that in the "Three Kingdoms·Kong Rong Biography", Kong Rong told Cao Cao that King Zhou of Shang Dynasty rewarded Daji to Duke Zhou. Cao Cao asked if this was the case. , Kong Rong replied that it exists today, and it should also exist in ancient times. Su Shi made up such a story based on this, which made Mei Shengyu appreciate Su Shi even more. 3. Dongpo Pork When Su Shi was demoted to Huangzhou, he wrote the famous limerick "Ode to Pork": "Huangzhou has good pork, but the price is as good as dirt. The rich refuse to eat it, and the poor don't know how to cook it. Slow down the fire and use less water. , when the heat is sufficient, it will be delicious. Get up and make a bowl every day, and you will be so full that you don't care." The "slow fire, use less water, it will be beautiful when the heat is sufficient" is the famous Dongpo Pork cooking method. . Su Dongpo later served as the governor of Hangzhou and was deeply loved by the people. And this "Dongpo Pork" also became famous in Hangzhou and became a famous local dish. 4. Su Shi checked out Su Shi lived in Changzhou. He spent the last bit of his savings and bought a house. He was about to move in at a certain date. By chance, he heard an old woman crying very sadly. He asked the old woman why she was crying. The old woman said that she had a house that had been passed down for hundreds of years and was sold by unfilial descendants, so she was crying sadly. After careful inquiry, it turned out that the house Su Shi bought was the ancestral house that the old woman said. So Su Shi said to her: "My former residence was sold by me. There is no need to feel deeply sad. Now I should give this house back to me." Su Shi immediately burned the deed of the house and only rented a house to live in. 5. Go to a banquet and recite poems. When Su Shi was twenty years old, he went to the capital to take a scientific examination. Six arrogant people looked down upon him and decided to invite Su Shi to a banquet with the intention of teasing him. Su Shi went happily after accepting the invitation. Before taking the table and using chopsticks, everyone proposed a drinking order. The content of the drinking order must quote historical figures and events, so that you can eat a plate of food alone. The other five people roared with cheers. "I'll come first." The older one said, "Jiang Ziya fishes on the Weishui River!" After saying that, he took away a plate of fish. "Qin Shubao sells horses in Chang'an!" The second man took away the horse meat with dignity. "Su Ziqing Beihu Shepherd!" The third person took the mutton without showing any signs of weakness. "Zhang Yide sells meat in Zhuo County!" The fourth one shouted hurriedly and stretched out his hand to pick up the meat. "Guan Yunchang Jingzhou scrapes the bones!" The fifth one couldn't wait to snatch the bones. "Zhuge Liang grows vegetables in Longzhong!" The sixth arrogantly picked up the last vegetable. After all the dishes were finished, the six people were happily preparing to eat and laugh at Su Shi, but Su Shi calmly chanted: "Qin Shihuang annexed the six countries!" After saying that, he put all six dishes in front of him and said with a smile. : "Brothers, please come!" Liuju people were dumbfounded. 6. Get ahead. When Su Shi took the examination in Beijing, the chief examiner was Ouyang Xiu, a famous literary figure in the Northern Song Dynasty. When he was reviewing the papers, he was fascinated by Su Shi's gorgeous writing style. To prevent favoritism, the examination papers at that time were all anonymous. Therefore, although Ouyang Xiu wanted to choose this article as the first one, he felt that this article was very similar to what his disciple Zeng Gong had written, and he was afraid that it would be true, so he finally ranked it second. It wasn't until the list was published that Ouyang Xiu knew that the author of the article was Su Shi. After knowing the true situation, Ouyang Xiu regretted it, but Su Shi didn't care about it at all. Su Shi's generosity and outstanding talent made Ouyang Xiu admire him: "Such a young talent should really be recognized and officially accepted." Su Shi was a disciple. 7. Family gathering After Su Shi came second in high school, the three fathers and sons of the Su family and the family of Su Xiaomei, who was famous for her Three Difficulties Qin Shaoyou, gathered in the garden to celebrate. Su Shi’s father, Su Xun, named the two names "Leng and Xiang". Each person was asked to write two poems that fit the situation. To take the lead, Su Laoquan walked slowly to the flower pond and chanted: "The water flows cold from the stone edge, and the wind comes from the flowers." Shaoyou Station. He got up and picked fragrant wintersweet petals, flicked his fingers and said: "The cold words are unknowable, and the plum blossoms are fragrant all over my fingers." "The younger sister also went to pick flowers. Shaoyou wanted to laugh at him for imitating her, but the younger sister said: "The cuckoos in the sun have cold mouthpieces, and the flowers in the night are sweet in the dreams of butterflies." After saying this, he spread his palms and found that a butterfly had been pinched to death. Daughter The characteristics were revealed, and everyone applauded in unison. Su Shi brushed the stone bench with his belt and rode away. Su Laoquan shouted: "My son, don't leave if you can't answer."
" Before he finished speaking, Su Shi said two sentences in a long voice: "I sat down on the stone and my clothes were cold, and when I stepped on the flowers and returned home, the smell of horseshoes was fragrant." Although this is a legend and its credibility cannot be tested, we can also get a glimpse of Su Shi's attitude from it. 8. Making cakes to worship Buddha. Su Dongpo and Huang Tingjian lived in Jinshan Temple. One day, they agreed to make cakes without telling the Buddha's seal. The two of them calculated the amount and presented the cake to the seat of Guanyin Bodhisattva. They bowed diligently and prayed. Unexpectedly, the Buddha's seal had been hidden in the sacred tent. While the two were kneeling to pray, they reached out and stole two pieces of cake. After Su Shi paid his respects, he stood up and saw that two pieces of cake were missing. He knelt down and prayed again: "Guanyin Bodhisattva has such magical powers and ate two pieces of cake. Why doesn't he come out to meet you?" "Foyin replied in the tent: "If I have some food, I will make a few joints with you to eat. How dare you bother me in vain? " 9. Reciting poems and admiring the moon. Su Dongpo was in Hangzhou and liked to make friends with the monks of the West Lake Temple. He was the best friend with the monk Foyin of Jinshan Temple. They often joked while drinking and reciting poems. Monk Foyin was delicious, and whenever Su Dongpo held a banquet, He always came uninvited to entertain guests. One night, Su Dongpo invited Huang Tingjian to go on a tour of the West Lake. There was a lot of food and wine on the boat. Su Dongpo smiled and said to Huang Tingjian: "Foyin always comes to the gathering today." In the evening we took a boat to the lake to drink, chant poems and have a good time, but he couldn't come anyway. "Unexpectedly, Monk Foyin had already heard that Su Dongpo and Huang Tingjian were going to visit the lake, so he hid under the cabin board before they got on the boat. The bright moon was in the sky, the cool breeze was refreshing, the fragrance of lotus filled the lake, and the boat Slowly arriving at the Three Pagodas of the West Lake, Su Dongpo held the wine glass, twirled his beard, and happily said to Huang Tingjian: "There is no Buddha seal today, so we are quite quiet. Let's start with a drinking order. The first two sentences should be used in real time, and the last two sentences should be used in real time. The sentence should end with the word '哉'. Huang Tingjian said: "Okay!" Su Dongpo first said: "The clouds part and the bright moon comes out. What can the sky say?" What can God say? "Huang Tingjian looked at the lotus flowers in the lake, and then said: "Pull the lotus seeds away, and the fish will come out, and they will find their place! Well done! " At this time, Foyin couldn't bear it anymore under the cabin plank. After hearing Huang Tingjian's words, he pushed the cabin plank away, climbed out, and said: "Pull the ship plank aside, and the Buddha's seal comes out. It's so frustrating! It’s so frustrating! "Su Dongpo and Huang Tingjian were startled when they saw a man suddenly crawling out from under the ship's plank. After a closer look, they found that it was Buddha's seal. When they heard him utter these four lines of poetry, they couldn't help laughing. Su Dongpo He sat down holding the Buddha's seal and said: "You hid it well and you did it right, but you finally got it again today! So, the three of them enjoyed the moon and swam around the lake, chatting and laughing. 10. Dongpo Fish Su Shi was not only a literary master, but also good at food. In addition to the well-known Dongpo elbow, Su Shi was also good at cooking fish. The fish he cooked was excellent. Once, Su Shi was in a mood and cooked fish himself. Just after it was cooked, he saw Huang Tingjian coming in through the window. , the two often bickered for fun). Knowing that they were just trying to make ends meet, Huang Tingjian hurriedly hid the fish on the top of the cupboard and said, "I'm asking Brother Zizhan today, how do you write Su Shi?" Su Shi responded with a long face: "Su, go up and down the grass and fish on the left and the corn on the right." Huang Tingjian said again: "Can we put this fish on the right side?" Su Shi said: "That's okay." Huang Tingjian continued: "Is it okay to put this fish on top?" Su Shi said: "How can there be any reason to put fish on it?" Huang Tingjian pointed to the top of the cupboard and said with a smile: "Since Brother Zizhan also knows this truth, why do you still put the fish on it?" ! "Su Shi, who has always been quick-thinking, was completely messed up by Huang Tingjian this time! 11. Fruits and Medicines Not long after Su Shi got married, he was invited to be a guest at Liu Gong's father's house. When he got there, a servant came and asked him to go back immediately, saying that his wife had Urgent matter. Liu Gong's father deliberately sarcastically chanted: "Fortunately (apricots, jujubes, plums), and calm (Cistanche deserticola is a traditional Chinese medicine). "This sentence contains the names of three fruits and one medicine. Without looking back, Su Shi stepped on the saddle and walked away, saying as he walked: "But this matter (Nai, the genus of apple, sugarcane, persimmon) must be treated with Angelica sinensis (Angelica sinensis). is the name of a Chinese medicine). "The talent of layman Dongpo is truly admirable. 12. The Thin Line of Life and Death After Su Shi was imprisoned, Emperor Shenzong sent a young eunuch pretending to be a prisoner to sleep with Dongpo in order to test whether he had any hatred for the emperor. During the daytime meal , the little eunuch teased him with words, Su Shi ate the food with gusto, and replied: "No matter how thunder strikes, my heart will remain unmoved!" "At night, when he fell asleep, the little eunuch teased again: "Why shouldn't it be a shame for Master Su to sleep on such a bed? Su Shi ignored him and snored. The little eunuch woke him up early the next morning and said, "Congratulations, sir, you have been pardoned." "You know, that night was extremely dangerous. As long as Su Shi complained a little or acted strangely like not eating well or sleeping well, he would be in danger. 13. After the restoration of conservatives in the court, Sima Guangzhong, a famous writer in the Northern Song Dynasty who was famous for smashing vats At this time, the new law was completely abolished. At this time, Su Shi, who was also a conservative, advocated that the new law should not be completely rejected and that good people and bad people should be treated differently. Therefore, he had a fierce conflict with Sima Guang and was demoted to Guazhou again. Although Su Shi believed in it. He was a Buddhist, but he didn't like monks. He heard that there was a famous monk named Foyin in Jinshan Temple in Guazhou. When Su Shi heard about it, he was not convinced, so he decided to go to the mountain to meet the old monk. In the temple, Su Shi learned from the emperor! Talking about civil and military officials, from governing the country to being a human being, the monk listened quietly. Seeing that Fo Yin had been silent, Su Shi looked down on him from the bottom of his heart.
I thought to myself: Everyone said he was capable, but he is just a fool, and he came here to defraud a few people out of their incense money! The topic slowly turned to Buddhist matters. At this time Foyin asked: "What kind of person should Lao Na be in the eyes of Mr. Su Shi?" Su Shi was full of contempt and casually replied: "What do you think in the eyes of ordinary people?" You may be capable, but that's because they are shallow. In fact, you make up your mind every day and have no real talent. You are just a liar!" Foyin smiled slightly and said nothing. Seeing him like this, Su Shi not only looked down upon the monk even more, but also became very proud of himself, so he took advantage of it and asked: "Who do you think I, the Great Scholar Su, am in your eyes?" "You are a very knowledgeable and cultivated person. Man, Lao Na is ashamed of himself!" Foyin replied. After returning home, Su Shi proudly told his little sister how to make the monk in the morning. After hearing this, Su Shi laughed so hard that her rice gushed out. Su Shi was confused and asked: "Why are you laughing, little sister?" "You belittled the monk and he not only didn't get angry but praised you. Who do you think has cultivation? How can cultivation come from without knowledge? You still think you are better than others." Strong? I’m so embarrassed that you don’t even know!” After hearing this, Su Shi suddenly realized that he and Master Foyin became sworn friends from then on. 14. "Bones" One day before it was cold, Su Shi and Foyin took a boat trip to the West Lake. Su Shi wanted to play a trick on Foyin. He looked up and saw a dog holding a bone by the river, and wrote: "The dog gnawed the (monk's) bones on the river." Foyin threw the poem into the water and immediately replied: "Dongpo's poem (corpse) floats in the water." 15. Dongpo had nothing to do while eating grass. Su Shi went to Jinshan Temple to visit Master Foyin. Unexpectedly, the master was not there, and a little boy The novice came to open the door. Su Shi said proudly: "Where is the bald donkey?" The little novice monk pointed calmly into the distance and replied: "Eat grass on the east slope!" 16. Couplet to retreat the enemy During the Northern Song Dynasty, the Song people were repeatedly invaded by the Liao State. The imperial court, which was deliberately seeking peace, attracted an envoy from the Liao State and asked the Song people to answer the first couplet: three lights, sun, moon and stars. If the second couplet appears, the troops will be withdrawn and peace will be negotiated. This couplet seems simple, but it is not easy to understand. The numbers in the sentence correspond exactly to the things that follow, and the numbers selected in the couplet correspond to things that are more or less than three. Su Shi, who happened to be back in Beijing to report on his work, cleverly combined the upper and lower couplets with a stroke of his pen: Four poems in ode to elegance. The beauty of this couplet is that the "Four Poems" only have three names: "Ode to Fengya", because there are "Daya" and "Xiaoya" in the "Book of Songs", collectively called "Ya". In addition to the four parts of "National Style" and "Ode to Poetry", "The Book of Songs" is also called the "Four Poems". The witty couplets are so perfect that the Liao envoy admired them greatly. 17. Three people make up the couplets. Su Shi, his younger sister, and Huang Tingjian spent one day admiring paintings. The above couplet is interesting: the gentle breeze depicts thin willows, and the pale moon depicts plum blossoms. It seems that it is a four-character couplet, but there is an empty word in the middle. My sister suggested adding words in the middle to make it a five-character couplet. Huang Tingjian's answer is: the thin willows dance in the breeze, and the plum blossoms are hidden in the pale moon. Su Shi added: The gentle breeze shakes the thin willows, and the pale moon reflects the plum blossoms. The little girl thought for a moment and responded immediately, filling in words to make it: The gentle breeze supports the thin willows, and the pale moon loses the plum blossoms. Looking at the couplets of the three people, the younger sister is the best: the word "help" not only writes the gentleness of the wind and the fragility of the willow, but also the intimacy between the wind and the willow, making it more vivid; The word "hidden" is appropriate. It not only emphasizes the brightness of the moonlight, but also takes into account the cleanliness of the plum blossoms. It highlights the scene where the two merge into one color, which is more consistent and appropriate. 18. His plan: Although Su Shi's close friend Foyin was a monk, he did not avoid wine and meat. On this day, Foyin fried fish and drank wine, and Su Shi happened to come to visit. Foyin hurriedly hid the fish under the big chime (wooden fish). Su Shi had already smelled the fish fragrance and disappeared when he came in. Thinking of Huang Tingjian's trick that day, he suddenly thought of a plan and said deliberately: "I came to ask the master today, what is the next sentence of Xiangyang Mendi's spring is always there?" Foyin I was deeply surprised that my old friend recited an old and well-known sentence, so I casually said the following sentence: People who accumulate good deeds will always be happy. Su Shi touched his palms and laughed: "Since there are fish (surplus) in the chime (qing), let's accumulate some kindness and use it to enjoy it." 19. Wushan River Water Once, Su Shi made an appointment with his brother Su Zhe and Master Foyin. The three of them were traveling together, and Foyin improvised a sentence: Wushan is as good as Wushan. The key lies in the homophony of "wu" and "wu". Su Che said: How can a leaf be as round as a lotus leaf? After hearing this, Su Shi said to his younger brother: It is good to use the homophonic pronunciation of "He He" and "无武", but would it be better to change it to this: He water can be as clear as a river. After hearing this, Foyin and Su Zhe agreed. Using "water" against "mountain" would win the battle more steadily. 20. The little sister of Lianqi Su Shi, who had not seen his friend for a long time, invited Huang Tingjian to his home. When the little sister saw her brother going out to greet him in person, she made a joke about it, saying: Brother, I invite you to Shuangyue. "Double Moon" is combined into the word "Peng". Su Shi knew that the little sister was joking with him, so he immediately said: Little sister catches the wind in front of the window. "Half" is very appropriate for "double", and "wind" is for "moon". Interestingly, the traditional Chinese character for "风" is "风", and Banfeng means "lice", which means that the little girl is catching lice in front of the window. The little girl turned away in anger. 21. Rice and rice. After Su Shi returned to office, he once talked to Liu Gong's father: "When I was in prison, I ate three white rice every day, and it was still very sweet. There is nothing more delicious in the world than this!". Liu Gong's father asked what three white rice was, and Su Shi replied: "A pinch of salt, a plate of raw radish, and a bowl of rice, this is 'three white rice'." Su Shi forgot about it after he said this. One day, I received an invitation from Liu Gong's father, inviting Su Shi to have a meal at his house. Su Shi readily accepted the appointment. But when Su Shi arrived at the place and found that there were only salt, radishes, and rice on the table, he suddenly realized that Liu Gong's father had been teasing him. A few days later, Liu Gong's father also received an invitation from Su Shi, inviting him to have a cuì meal.
Liu Gong's father knew that Su Shi wanted to take revenge, but he was curious and wanted to know what Niifan was, so he finally went. Su Shi chatted with Liu Gong's father from morning to night, making Liu Gong's father so hungry that his chest pressed against his back. I really can’t help but ask where is the meal? Su Shi replied slowly: "The salt is also hairy (mǎo, (无, meaning "without"), the radish is also hairy, and the rice is also hairy. Isn't it 'silent' rice? In fact, you have been enjoying it." Liu Gong After their father was shocked, the two of them laughed at the same time. 22. The Contradiction between Su Shi and Wang Anshi Wang Anshi and Su Shi were both successful young people. Wang Anshi passed the Jinshi examination at the age of 22, and Su Shi and Wang Anshi passed the Jinshi examination at the age of 23. Both were regarded as talented people, and both were famous for their poetry. The real confrontation between the two began in the second year of Xining, Shenzong of the Song Dynasty (1069). At that time, the Su brothers returned to the capital after their father's funeral. Su Shi was appointed as the magistrate of Zhishi Museum and Kaifeng Prefecture, and Wang Anshi, who was trusted by Shenzong and served as Pingzhangshi (prime minister) of Zhongshu Menxia, ??was vigorously promoting the reform and new policies. In this way, two great writers were officials in the same dynasty, and the disputes were resolved by This is the beginning. Wang Anshi's determination to reform with the courage of "people's words are not enough, the ancestors' laws are not enough, and the changes of nature are not enough" is also admirable. But the key issue is that in the face of complex social conditions, "conservatism is not enough". In the face of Chinese people, especially bureaucrats and bureaucrats, who by nature follow the teaching of "wudong is great", is it better to carry out reforms radically or gradually? Extraordinary style. As for Su Shi, it is not that he does not advocate change, he just hopes not to be "too hasty", because "if the law is consistent, things will be easy to do, and if things are gradual, the people will not be alarmed." Therefore, the political opinions of the two people are not the same. 23. Su Shi and Gao Qiu The second chapter of "Water Margin" tells the history of Gao Qiu's fortune. It is said that Gao Qiu was recommended by General Dong to "Xiao Su Xue Shi", and "Xiao Xue Shi" introduced him to him. He married Prince Consort Wang Jinqing, and then met Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, who was King Duan at the time, and finally rose to prominence and became a Taiwei. Su Shi, the "Little Su Scholar" in the CCTV version of "Water Margin", should be the famous "Da Su". "Bachelor" is the well-known lay scholar Su Shi of Dongpo. Volume 7 of "Huizhi Houlu" written by Wang Mingqing in the Song Dynasty gives more details about Gao Qiu's fortune. Combined with other relevant information, it is known that Gao Qiu was originally a minor official in Su Dongpo's mansion. Scholar Su saw that Gao Qiu's articles were very elegant, so he admired him very much. In the eighth year of Yuanyou (1093), Emperor Zhe of the Song Dynasty, Su Shi became the prefect of Zhongshan Prefecture from the Hanlin Academy, so he recommended him to Zeng Bu, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy. There were already many officials in the palace, so they did not accept him. Su Shi recommended Gao Qiu to Prince Consort Wang Jinqing. Gao Qiu stayed in the palace for seven years until the third year of Zhe Zong Yuanfu (1100). By chance, he met King Duan. As luck would have it, a month later, Zhezong died, and King Duan became emperor. Gradually he was promoted to the rank of envoy of the Privy Council. "He traveled through the three yamen for twenty years and served in front of the palace, starting from Qiu." One man attained enlightenment and ascended to heaven. His father Gao Dun was promoted to Jiedu envoy, and his brother Gao Shen also relied on Gao Qiu. His power was ranked among the prominent ministers, and his children were all Langguan, a family with the highest honor. Besides, Su Shi was repeatedly demoted due to internal party disputes in the court. In the eighth year of Yuanyou (1093), Empress Dowager Xuanren died, and Zhezong was in charge. . As a figure in the old party, Su Shi knew that his political views were not tolerated by the new government, so he wisely asked for a replacement to be the prefect of Zhongshan. In less than a year, the political situation became worse and worse. In the leap April of the first year of Shaosheng (1094), the court officials impeached him for ridiculing the previous dynasty in the words he wrote when he was a Hanlin scholar, and he was demoted to the British. He was the magistrate of Zhouzhou (today's Yingde City, Guangdong Province). Before he took office, he was demoted to deputy envoy of Ningyuan Army and settled in Huizhou. Not to mention this, not long after, he was demoted to Qiongzhou Biejia and lived in Changhua Army. He lived a difficult life of "inhumane habitation, without any medicine or bait" until Huizong ascended the throne (1101). After being pardoned, he returned to the north and died in Changzhou soon after. It can be said that the day when Gao Qiu rose to prominence was when Su Shi suffered a disaster. What is the relationship between the two from now on? "Records of the Huiqu" says: Gao Qiu has always been grateful to Su Shi and never forgets the feeling of commending Su Shi. Whenever the relatives and friends of Su Shi's descendants came to the capital, Gao Qiu would personally ask about them and give them gold and silver to help them. poor. From this point of view, Su Shi recommended Gao Qiu to Wang Jinqing not because he disliked him for being frivolous and frivolous, but precisely because of his appreciation for his talents. Su Shi was an upright and heroic man throughout his life, and never put his guard up against others. Gao Wenhu of the Song Dynasty said in "Liaohuazhou Xianlu": "Su Zizhan loved all the scholars in the world, and he was happy with all the virtuous and dishonest people. He once said: 'I can accompany the Jade Emperor, and I can accompany the beggars of Beitian Court.'" Zi You (His younger brother Su Zhe, known as "Xiao Su Xueshi") He was silent for a long time and tried to choose friends. Zizhan said: "There is no bad person in the world before me. This is a disease."" Things in the world often happen. It is so dramatic that Su Shi and Gao Qiu had different political views and very different life orientations. It can be said that they were not the same people at all. However, when the Su clan children were too poor to survive, it was Gao Qiu who saved them. Their fate enabled Su Shi's nephew to revive his family tradition in the Southern Song Dynasty. This may be due to the fact that Su Shi "saw no bad person in the world" throughout his life and treated everyone with sincerity, which made political opponents also admire his broad mind. Moved. 24. Going to Beijing to take the exam. It is said that Su Dongpo of the Song Dynasty took a boat to take the exam in his early years. He encountered wind and waves on the way and missed the start of the exam. At first, the examiner did not allow Su Dongpo to enter. Later, after hearing Su's story, he suddenly felt compassion and recited a couplet for him to answer. If he got the answer right, he would be allowed to take the exam.
The couplet issued by the examiner was: "A small boat carried two or three candidates, and after traveling on the water for four to five days, they arrived in Jiujiang in a confused manner. They arrived very late." Su Dongpo is worthy of being a talented man of his generation, and he answered the question after a moment's thought. The second line of the antithesis: "In ten years of hard work, I read ninety-eight volumes of poetry and books, rushed to seven or sixty-five examination rooms, and went to the second door three times. I must enter." Use the order of the sentences and the reverse order of the couplets. There are scenes, experiences, twists and turns but not rigidity, regarded as a coincidence. 25. Su Dongpo was suspected of leaking the title. Su Dongpo was demoted to Huangzhou due to the "Wutai Poetry Case". The local Li Fangshu sympathized with his plight and often visited him. The two became close friends. After Su Dongpo was recalled to Beijing, he still exchanged letters with Uncle Li Fang, and they were as close as before. During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, Su Dongpo was ordered to know the tribute examination, and Li Fangshu also took the exam. It is said in history books that Li Fangshu failed the examination. Later, an insider went to see Su Dongpo and asked him to give him a "favor", but Su Dongpo did not agree. He said in a letter to Li Fangshu: "The friendship between gentlemen should be based on the Tao and not on others." Attracting each other leads to benefit..." Uncle Fang was deeply moved after reading it, and their friendship became even deeper. However, a recent reading of "Hu's Miscellaneous Comments" written by Hu Yan of the Ming Dynasty revealed another view. Hu said in the book that Su Dongpo admired Uncle Li Fang quite a lot. One day before the exam, Su Dongpo asked his son Su Shudang to bring a letter to Uncle Li Fang. It happened that Uncle Li Fang was out, so Li's servant collected the letter and placed it on the coffee table. Soon afterwards, Zhang Dun's sons Zhang Chi and Zhang Yuan came to visit, but Li Fangshu still hadn't returned. Zhang Chi and Zhang Yuan conveniently took the slips on the coffee table and read them. They were two chapters of "On Liu Xiang Yu Yang Xiong". Brothers Zhang Chi and Zhang Yuan knew that there must be news in it, so they quietly took the slip back and studied it carefully. Soon, Su Dongpo entered the title of "Liu Xiang is better than Yang Xiong". When the rankings came out, Zhang Yuan ranked first in high school, Zhang Chi ranked tenth, but Uncle Li Fang failed. Li Fangshu's mother sighed: "Su Gong knew about the tribute, but my son didn't take the first place. It's fate." Su Dongpo initially thought that the first place must be Li Fangshu. When the curtain came out, I found out that it was Zhang Yuan. I couldn't help but feel very sorry for him. I also sent a poem to Uncle Li Fang. One of the poems said: "I have spent my life talking about the ancient battlefield, and when I encounter the mirror in the sky, I am confused by the five colors of the sun." This is also the meaning of Mo Kenai's ridicule. The postscript of "Hu's Miscellanies" says: "The original copy of Su Dongpo's poem is now at Li Shilian's house in Nanchang. It is combined with Xu Xuan's manuscript and Zhang Jizhi's handwritten notes into one volume. The calligraphy and painting are both lovely." Hu Yan was also named in the Ming Dynasty. Confucianism has a good reputation and is not like a nonsense person, but he did not explain where the story came from. If Su Dongpo really used the test questions to hint at the people he liked, it should constitute the crime of "leaking the questions." Fortunately, the Zhang brothers only wanted to win the first place and did not want to harm others. If they wanted to harm others, they would use the slip held by Su Dongpo to file a complaint. If they were investigated, Su Dongpo would have to be exiled for several years even if he did not die. 26. Health preservation Su Shi is not only proficient in traditional Chinese medicine, but also a food and health expert. He usually works out some health-preserving formulas that not only satisfy the food needs, but also treat diseases and provide health care. Su Dongpo often went to the mountains and fields to discover some wild herbs and game that were both medicinal and edible. Once, he walked near a rice field and suddenly saw the wild chestnuts (water chestnuts) that he usually liked to eat. He wanted to quench his greed, so he carried the water chestnuts with his clothes to a nearby temple and borrowed the stove fire to cook porridge. The method is to cook 500 grams of water chestnuts, 100 grams of rice, and an appropriate amount of ginger into water chestnut soup. Water chestnut soup can supplement vitamin C, and also has the effects of clearing away heat, diuresis, calming the liver, harmonizing blood, and resolving phlegm. Su Dongpo also liked to eat jade glutinous rice soup (made from boiled potato). He often cooks and eats it himself, and says it is a good food for strengthening the spleen and replenishing qi. Maimendong drink was also Su Dongpo's favorite drink. He made Maimendong drink into a home-cooked drink with oral health, soothing and hypnotic properties. He wrote a poem and said: "A pillow of cool breeze is worth ten thousand dollars, and no one is willing to sell it to sleep by the north window. I am happy to warm my stomach and drink it in winter. I know that it is Dongpo's own hand frying." Wang Fu, a native of Qingshen, Meizhou, Sichuan, was young and beautiful, knowledgeable and courteous. He married Su Shi at the age of 16. She can be called Su Shi's right-hand assistant. Du Jin painted "Su Shi's Inscription on Bamboo" in the Ming Dynasty. There is a story of "listening behind the scenes". Su Shi was a broad-minded person and relatively careless in dealing with people, so Wang Fu listened quietly behind the screen and informed Su Shi of his suggestions. Su Shi's "Epitaph of His Late Wife Wang's Family" records this story: Shi was talking to his guests outside, and the king stood on the screen to listen to what he said. When he retreated, he would repeat his words and say: "There is a certain person who often uses both ends of his words, but only what he means." What's the point of talking to this person? "If someone comes to seek a close relationship with Shi, the king will say, "I'm afraid it won't last long, but he will leave quickly." Whenever Su Shi was studying, she would stay with him all day long. If Su Shi occasionally forgot, she would remind him. It can be said that Su Shi was an excellent wife. Wang Fu served his relatives very filially and cared deeply about Su Shi. The two of them were deeply affectionate and loving. Wang Fu died of illness after living with Su Shi for eleven years. This was a huge blow to Dongpo. The deep pain in his heart and mental pain are self-evident. Su Shi followed his father Su Xun's words and "buried her next to your mother's tomb" and personally planted 30,000 pine trees on the hilltop where Wang Fu was buried to express his condolences. Another ten years later, Su Shi wrote "Jiangchengzi·Remembering Dreams" for Wang Fu, which is known as the best mourning poem in history. This poem has been widely recited in different dynasties for more than 900 years. It is also the most prominent one among many mourning works in the history of literature. After learning about the love story between Su Shi and Wang Fu, and then reading this poem again, the emotion, the sadness, and the depth are enough to make future generations cry a thousand lines too! Su Shi's second wife was Wang Runzhi, Wang Fu's cousin, who married Su Shi in the third year after Wang Fu's death. She is eleven years younger than Su Shi. She has admired Su Shi since she was a child. She has a gentle nature and relies on Su Shi everywhere.
Wang Runzhi accompanied Su Shi through the most important 25 years of his life, through the Wutai Poetry Case and Huangzhou's relegation, and shared the ups and downs of Su Shi's career. During the most difficult time, he and Su Shi picked wild vegetables and plowed the fields barefoot, trying various ways to relieve Su Shi's boredom. On the occasion of Wang Runzhi's birthday, Su Shi released a live fish to bless her and wrote the chronicle "Die Lian Hua". The poem "Three pearls, Wang Wendu on her knees" praises her for treating her three sons equally and loving each other without distinction. Twenty-five years later, Wang Runzhi also died before Su Shi. Su Shi suffered from a broken liver and intestines, and wrote a memorial: "I said home, and walked back to Qiuyuan. There were many people who abandoned me first. Who welcomed my door, and who gave me fields? What can I do now? My eyes are dry with tears. Traveling to the funeral I am so kind to my country. I only have the same acupuncture point, so I am so sorry!" A hundred days after his wife's death, he asked his friend, the great painter Li Longmian, to draw ten portraits of Arhats, and then asked the monks to chant sutras for her. When he was born in the Paradise, he dedicated these ten Buddhist statues, "Dongpo Playing with Inkstones" painted by Ren Bonian in the Qing Dynasty, to the soul of his wife. After Su Shi's death, Su Che buried him and Wang Runzhi together, fulfilling the wish of "only the same acupoint" in the memorial text. Su Shi's concubine is called Wang Chaoyun, who is twenty-six years younger than Su Shi. When Su Shi was in the most difficult situation, all the concubines around him left one after another, but Wang Chaoyun always stayed with him. She was Su Shi's confidante. Su Shi wrote the most poems to Wang Chaoyun, calling her "The Goddess Vimalakirti". It is said that when Su Dongpo was demoted to Huizhou, Wang Chaoyun often sang the lyrics of "Butterfly Loves Flowers" to relieve Su Shi's depression. Whenever Chaoyun sings "there are few willow trees blowing on the branches", he hides his melancholy, becomes overwhelmed with sadness, and stops crying. Dongpo asked why, Chaoyun replied: "What I can't do (finished singing) is that there is no fragrant grass sentence anywhere in the world." Su Shi laughed: "I am sad for autumn, and you are sad for spring again!" Unfortunately, Chaoyun also died of illness in Huizhou before Su Shi. After Chaoyun passed away, Su Shi "never heard this word again for the rest of his life" and remained a widower. In accordance with Chaoyun's last wish, Su Shi buried him in the pine forest under the Great Sacred Pagoda of Qi Zen Temple at the south foot of Gushan Mountain in West Lake, Huizhou, and built a Liuru Pavilion beside the tomb to commemorate him. The couplet he wrote was "Untimely, only Chaoyun can Know me; I play ancient tunes alone, and I miss you even more every time it rains." There is a famous allusion in this couplet: "Dongpo retired from the court one day and finished eating. He felt his belly and walked slowly. Gu said to the waiter: "What do you think of this?" A maid suddenly said: "It's all articles. ', Poe didn't think so. Another person said: 'A belly full of knowledge. ’ Poe laughed heartily. "The Chaoyun Tomb is located on the lonely mountain in the West Lake Scenic Area of ??Huizhou City, Guangdong Province, next to the Su Dongpo Memorial Hall. [2] Children. In 1059, Wang Fu gave birth to Su Shi's eldest son Su Mai. In 1070 and 1072, Wang Runzhi gave birth to Su Shi. The second son Su Yu and the third son Su Guo were all raised by Wang Run.
In 1083, Wang Chaoyun gave birth to his fourth son Su Dun, but unfortunately he died soon after.
