After taking office, he wrote a letter to Zongshen and Huzhou Xie Biao, and the new party picked out sentences that they thought were ironic from a large number of Su Shi's poems. There was once a voice against the Soviet Union in the imperial court.

On July 28th, Su Shi, who had been in office for only three months, was arrested by Yushitai officials and escorted to Beijing. Dozens of people are involved. Thanks to everyone's efforts, Su Shi was given a lighter punishment and was demoted to deputy ambassador of Huangzhou (now Huanggang, Hubei), under the supervision of local officials.

When Su Shi learned about Hangzhou, it happened in May and June of five years in Yuan You, with heavy rain in western Zhejiang and flooding of Taihu Lake. Su Shi directed the dredging of the West Lake and the construction of Su Causeway. People in Hangzhou thanked him.
