If people also choose 1000 years ago, they have always believed that Su Dongpo was a national male god in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Regardless of personality or knowledge, Master Su has always been a god-like existence and a well-deserved male god.
However, after reading Mr. Lin Yutang's Biography of Su Dongpo, I made a further detailed interpretation of this great writer. I feel that Master Su is not only an irreplaceable male god, but also a powerful god of war.
A talented male god. Everyone is familiar with Su Dongpo's achievements, which can be described as brilliant stars. Su Shi's poems are extensive and profound. He is known as Dongpo Jushi, a famous writer in the Northern Song Dynasty and one of the eight masters in the Tang and Song Dynasties. He is knowledgeable and versatile, and has high attainments in calligraphy, painting, poetry and prose. His calligraphy is also called "Song Sijia" with Cai Xiang, Huang Tingjian and Mi Fei. He is good at painting bamboo and strange stones, and he also has outstanding opinions on painting and calligraphy. He is a literary leader after Ouyang Xiu in the Northern Song Dynasty, and his prose is as famous as Ouyang Xiu. Poetry is as famous as Huang Tingjian, and is also called "Su Huang"; His words were majestic and bold, and he changed his graceful words, and he was called "Su Xin" with Xin Qiji, a poet in the Southern Song Dynasty, creating a bold style of words.
Love is stronger than gold. Before Su Shi took the systematic examination, his father Su Xun arranged his sons' marriages early, so that their two sons could study with peace of mind and gain fame. Later, after Dongpo married his wife, Wang Fu, the "Su Men San Zi" began a trip to Beijing to take the exam. Being the first is expected. Su Shi, who gained great fame, is a very popular son-in-law candidate for wealthy families. Relatives who came to propose marriage broke the threshold, but Su Shi sent a group of dignified matchmakers because they were married. To this end, it will inevitably offend the royalty. This more or less paved the way for Su Shi to always be envied and framed in the Northern Song Dynasty.
The more frustrated the god of war, the braver. Su Shi's integrity made him suffer a lot in the Northern Song Dynasty with freedom of speech. Just because he had a slightly different opinion on Wang Anshi's political reform, and expressed the view that he should not rush to reform in his own poems, he was put in prison by the fanatics of political reform. In Wutai prison, Su Shi finally recognized the ugliness of human nature. After nearly a year in prison, Su Shi did not bow to evil forces, but calmly prepared to die in Wutai. Finally, under the operation of many forces, Su Shi was lucky enough to walk out of Wutai. This is the famous Wutai poetry case in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Su Shi, who was dying, was not depressed day by day, but was open-minded day by day. After being demoted to Huangzhou, the economy was very poor, so he opened up land in Dongpo and gave himself a name "Dongpo Jushi". Dongpo, a layman in Huangzhou, plowed the fields, plowed the fields, studied food, sought seclusion, visited the winners, and enjoyed it, and wrote the famous Red Cliff Fu. Really put Tao Yuanming's "peace and happiness" into full play.
When he was demoted to Michigan, the environment was even worse. However, in Michigan, he wrote Hunting in Michigan. He said, "I can bow my head like a full moon, look northwest and shoot Sirius." It's amazing. The period of relegation to Mizhou was the peak of Su Shi's poetry creation. It is in such a difficult environment that he can make his famous dishes Dongpo elbow, Dongpo fish, Dongpo tofu and Dongpo meat develop and spread for nearly a thousand years.
This is the male god Su Dongpo and the god of war Su Dongpo.
