? "The Biography of Su Dongpo" written by Mr. Lin Yutang is really interesting. Of course, Su Dongpo himself was a person who lived an interesting life.
? Su Dongpo’s real name was Su Shi, and Dongpo Jushi was the name of the farmland east of “Xuetang” (the hut where he lived) after he was demoted to Huangzhou. These names were all named by himself. It is not difficult to see that he is so contented and enjoying the farming life. Su Shi's optimism and refinement can be seen.
? In the Northern Song Dynasty at that time, Su Shi was an out-and-out slash young man. Moreover, every diagonal bar has almost reached the level of "male god". He has extremely high attainments in the fields of poetry, bold words, prose, calligraphy, painting and philosophy. In his 65 years of life experience, he created more than 2,700 poems, more than 300 lyrics, more than 4,800 essays, and countless calligraphy and paintings. In addition to the field of literature and art, he is also a scholar leader and a generation of wise teachers, as well as a politician, gourmet, and health expert... Such an awesome person is also an all-round idol figure in modern times!
? No wonder Mr. Lin Yutang is also one of his biggest fans. He said that studying Su Shi and writing this book are one of the great joys in life for him. There is nothing more fun and enjoyable than writing a book for someone you love.
? Let’s take a look at Su Shi’s legendary and elegant life.
? Three seats among the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties that have left their names in the annals of history are occupied by the "Three Sus" of the Su family. The three Sus are Su Shi's father Su Xun, Su Shi's younger brother Su Che and himself. His father is also a legendary figure. He was dissolute and disobedient when he was young. After having Su Shi at the age of 27, he decided to start studying hard. He started so late and was able to make a lot of noise, which makes people lament the power of family genes. I guess many people are like me and find it incredible, right?
? Su Che's literary talent is not inferior to that of his elder brother. The relationship between the two brothers is not ordinary, as evidenced by the poem at the end of the article. The calm and reserved younger brother was also Su Shi's lifelong best friend. Su Shi was in turn his younger brother's most respected teacher.
?Su Shi’s hometown is in Meishan, Sichuan. His ladylike mother has been dedicated to teaching him since he was a child. Su Shi, who had determined to be a loyal minister since childhood, received strong support from his mother.
According to historical records, Su Shi could write extraordinary poems when he was 10 years old, which even made his teachers feel ashamed. At the age of 11, he began to formally receive "imperial examination education" and memorized a large number of literary and historical classics. Although the process was arduous, the knowledge stored in his brain did show amazing effectiveness in the future: he could easily quote scriptures when writing poems, compositions or talking to others.
Later, Su Shi went to Beijing to take the exam and was appreciated by Ouyang Xiu. Ouyang Xiu mistakenly mistook Su Shi's examination writing style for that of his good friend Zeng Gong, and gave Su Shi the second-place examination result in order to avoid suspicion. When he was 20 years old, Su Shi won the imperial examination. Later, he returned to his hometown to mourn his mother's death, and after that, he officially entered his official career.
? Su Shi’s official career had its ups and downs.
? Su Shi had many twists and turns in the central court (he held high-level positions such as Hanlin bachelor and minister), but he was very handy and had outstanding political achievements in the local area. He has served as a prefect in Mizhou, Xuzhou, Huzhou, Hangzhou, Yangzhou, Dingzhou and other places. He has been a local governor for more than ten years and has always been a "blue sky" who does practical things for the people.
? Because of his opposition to the New Party (evaluating Wang Anshi's reform as doing more harm than good) and experiencing the "Wutai Poetry Case", Su Shi was demoted many times. The three important times were: to Huangzhou at the age of 44 and to Huizhou at the age of 58. , arrived in Danzhou at the age of 61 (is it the same place as "Qing Yu Nian"?). These different unfortunate life experiences fully demonstrated Su Shi's optimism and refinement in life. They were also the glorious years when a large number of ancient and golden literary works were published. Delicious Dongpo pork, lychees, oysters and other delicacies were also created, discovered and spread during this period.
? Su Shi's married wife Wang Fu has a wisdom that "the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water". To a large extent, she makes up for her husband's shortcomings of being too enthusiastic and bold. Su Shi commented that his first wife was "sensitive and quiet". What did he mean? Just smart, quiet and not noisy. The first wife and second wife (his first wife's cousin) who left one after another in his life, and finally the companionship of his close friend, the clever karaoke concubine, gave him great comfort for his lonely soul.
? Finally, there are a few classic poems by Su Shi that everyone will appreciate.
? "Jiangchengzi·Dreams" given to my wife:
? Ten years of life and death are uncertain. If you don’t think about it, you will never forget it. Thousands of miles of lonely tomb, nowhere to say desolation. Even if we meet, we should not know each other, our faces are covered with dust and our temples are like frost.
? Night comes and dreams suddenly return home. Xiaoxuan window, dressing up. They looked at each other without words, only a thousand lines of tears. It is expected that every year, at the place where the intestines are broken, on a bright moonlit night, there will be short pines.
? "Shui Tiao Ge Tou·When will the bright moon be" for my younger brother:
? Bingchen Mid-Autumn Festival, drinking happily until the end of the day, getting drunk, writing this article, and pregnant with a child. .
? When will the bright moon appear? Ask the sky for wine.
I wonder what year it is today in the palace in the sky? I want to ride the wind back home, but I am afraid that it will be cold in the high places. Dancing clear shadow, like in the world?
? Turn to the Zhu Pavilion, look down at the Qihu, and the light will make you sleepless. There shouldn't be any hatred, so what's the point of saying goodbye? People have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions, and the moon waxes and wanes. This is a difficult thing in ancient times. I hope that people will live long and travel thousands of miles to meet Chanjuan.
? "Drinking the First Sunny and Later Rain on the Lake", which writes about the beautiful scenery of the West Lake:
? The clear sky is better when the water is shining, but the mountains are also strange when they are empty and rainy; I want to compare the West Lake to the West Lake , light makeup and heavy makeup are always suitable.
? There are also "Nian Nujiao·Chibi Nostalgia", too many!
