Chapter 70

"Why do you say that?"

Wuyou felt that Su Dongpo was a very lovable person. She thought this person was very cute, and she had a relaxed and humorous smile on her face when she mentioned him.

"Because our Master Su is a typical all-rounder. Not only can he write lyrics, but he is also good at writing poems. Not to mention writing articles, he also has deep attainments in calligraphy and painting."

"You may not understand it simply by saying it. Let's give an example. He could enter the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties by writing articles. This shows how good his articles are. There is another thing. When Su Shi took the imperial examination, the examiner happened to be Ouyang Xiu. At that time, the name system was anonymous, and the examiners could not see the names of the candidates. Ouyang Xiu mistakenly thought that Su Shi's article was written by his student Zeng Gong. In order to avoid suspicion, he suppressed the ranking and took it as No. 2. Based on this alone, he also knew that the article was written by his student Zeng Gong. Su Shi's talent and learning."

After hearing this, many people exclaimed: "He is indeed a great talent."

"Be good, if you don't hold on, wouldn't you be the number one pick?"

There are many such voices among the people.

"Su Shi is called Su Huang with Huang Tingjian when he writes lyrics, Su Xin with Xin Qiji, and Ou Su with Ouyang Xiu when he writes articles. He is also good at calligraphy and painting. He is one of the four masters of Song Dynasty. It will be cherished by future generations."

"Of course, Su Shi's most popular poems are his poems. His poems are very high-quality and widely circulated. Many capitals have been selected into Chinese textbooks, and they are one of the poems that must be memorized. For example, his title Xilinbi, Water Tune Song When is the first bright moon, Nian Nujiao Chibi nostalgia and so on."

"The thing that needs to be mentioned here in particular is when does the water melody song come out. Hu Zai, a literati in the Southern Song Dynasty, wrote such a passage, saying that the Mid-Autumn Festival lyrics come out from the Dongpo water melody song, and the rest of the words are all wasted."

When Wuyou said this, how many people were shocked.

"Is it really that good?"

"This man has such a loud voice."

"Why don't I believe it?"

After the Song Dynasty, Su Dongpo's fans were all smiling and proud, and Tianmu praised Su Dongpo more than they praised them.

"That's right. Our layman Dongpo's words are so good."

"When will the bright moon come? Ask the sky for wine...good, good words."

"After watching Mr. Dongpo's water-melody songs, I no longer dare to write Mid-Autumn Festival lyrics."

"The name of the Saint of Ci is well-deserved."

But Su Shi, a young man in the Song Dynasty, was completely dumbfounded.

He looked at his brother: "Is this you talking about me?"

His brother didn't believe it either: "Maybe, maybe, probably."

"What is possibility?"

Su Shi had a little temper: "Yes, yes, no, no."

How do you call this Su Che?

He wasn't sure.

It seems that his brother is not that powerful, at least he thinks.

But Su Shi is still very confident.

He thought for a while and said, "Then I will be very good later on."

After saying that, he happily took a bite of the meat himself: "It's really good to be able to write articles and eat delicious food at the same time."

Wuyou smiled and played the full lyrics of the song "Shui Tiao".

"When will the bright moon be there, ask Qingtian about the wine, I don't know the palace in the sky, what year is it today..."

As soon as the whole word came out, I don’t know how many people were immersed in it and couldn’t get back to their senses for a long time.

Even Su Shi himself was amazed.

He even forgot to eat the meat.

"I wrote this?"

"Why didn't I know I had such a great ability?"

"How can I write such good words?"

Su Che couldn't believe it either.

"Brother, what happened to you later?"

"How can you write such good words? It's strange that people say that once the first song of Shui Tiao comes out, the rest of the Mid-Autumn Festival words will be useless."

Su Shi touched his nose: "The fairy said it was written by me, so there shouldn't be anything wrong."

Su Xun was drinking happily now.

His son will leave his name in history, which is enough for him to drink.

He could hear clearly just now that the fairy said that his son's poems were included in the texts of future generations of students. It can be seen that they have been widely circulated and can be learned by everyone in the world. What an honor it is.

Song Renzong was already amazed by this poem.

He said to his left and right: "Pay attention. The three Su family father and son will report immediately after they arrive in Beijing."

Empress Dowager Liu also liked this word very much and couldn't help but recite it: "The moon waxes and wanes, and people have joys and sorrows. This is a difficult thing to do in ancient times... It's so well written."

Not only people in the Song Dynasty like it, but people in the Tang Dynasty also like this word.

Even the First Emperor and Liu Che loved it very much.

The First Emperor said to his attendants: "Write this word down and I will read it later."

Liu Che also said: "This poem is well written, pass it on to Sima Xiangru, and ask him to write one too..."

Wuyou was still talking about Su Dongpo's deeds.

"Su Shi has been on the road to exile all his life. When he was young, he rose to high school and became famous in the capital. Just when he was showing off his talents, his mother died of illness, so he had to return to his hometown to mourn. Three years later, he returned to the court. When Wang Anshi's reform began, many of Su Shi's Relatives and friends were opposed to the reform, and his mentor Ouyang Xiu was forced to leave Beijing because of political disagreements with Wang Anshi."

"Su Shi wrote a letter talking about the disadvantages of the new law, which angered the New Party, so he asked to take a post in Beijing. He successively served as a judge in Hangzhou, a magistrate in Mizhou, and a magistrate in Xuzhou and Huzhou. Very successful."

"Su Shi's official career was not smooth throughout his life. When I mention him, I think of the famous Wutai Poetry Case."

"When Su Shi was the magistrate of Huzhou, he wrote a letter of thanks to the court in Huzhou, but he was caught by the New Party and attacked him wantonly. There was a rebellion against Su Shi in the court. Su Shi was arrested and sent to the capital only three months after he took office. The number of people implicated Ten people, this is the Wutai poetry case."

Wuyou carefully explained the Wutai poetry case and Su Shi's experience of being relegated.

"What Su Shi left to later generations, apart from his poems and articles, is a Su Causeway, one of the ten scenic spots of West Lake in later generations, Su Causeway Xiaochun. The Su Causeway here was built when Su Shi knew Hangzhou, and later generations call it Su Gong Causeway."

"Of course, when people in later generations mention Su Shi, they not only like him, but also get angry."

"What are you angry about? Of course I'm angry that he wrote too many poems, and there are so many fine poems. These poems have to be recited, which undoubtedly takes up a lot of study time, and makes people memorize until they are bald. If possible, future generations of students will definitely have to Can you write less poems to shout out Su Shi?"

When Wuyou said this, many people laughed.

Su Shi himself laughed.

"No, I will write a few more songs so that you can continue to memorize them until you are bald."

Wuyou laughed for a while and continued: "When we talk about San Su, we definitely can't just talk about Su Shi. We have to talk about his father and his younger brother as well. Speaking of Su Shi's younger brother Su Che, many people think that he is special. Tough luck.”

"what?"

Su Shi looked at Su Che: "What's wrong with you?"

Su Xun was speculating: "Could it be that the official career is more difficult than your brother's?"

The words received by Wuyou answered everyone's questions: "Because he is unlucky, because he has an unlucky brother, Su Shi has been on the road to exile all his life, and Su Zhe has been fighting all his life to save his brother first." Wire."
