Unexpectedly, Su Shi read and laughed along the way, traveled leisurely, and walked over like a mountain tour. At the same time, he made a lot of friends, and everyone who came to visit him, he would talk and laugh with each other over a cup of tea, and even when he had just arrived in a certain place and was not familiar with his life, he could take the initiative to find someone to talk to. Not to mention writing letters at any time and interacting with countless friends from all over the world.

The result is: the farther away he goes, the more friends he makes, and there are people from all walks of life. So the more you go, the more you go, the more legends you go, it can be said that without this road of distant decline, Su Dongpo's reputation will never reach the current level... Before the far decline, his reputation was deep, and the officialdom and literary circles were indeed headed by him. But after the depreciation, the breadth increased, and his free and easy, easy, and versatile along the way made the world praise him as "Po Xian"

No one has ever treated the tragic experience of seven years of debasement abroad like him. In Danzhou, there was also a famous minister before him who was demoted here, that person was much older than Su Shi's official position, Li Deyu, the famous minister of the Tang Dynasty and the leader of the Li Party. As a result, he died here, and he couldn't endure the harsh environment, let alone the bullying of his political enemies!

This didn't happen to Su Shi, it's not that he is not as arrogant as Li Deyu, but the core area of his soul is too different. Li Deyu was born in a top official family, Su Shi is different, he is the first generation of famous ministers who started with talent, grew up in the Shuchuan landscape, Shushan Lingxiu is agitated, the most chic and uninhibited in China for 5,000 years, the two most talented writers - Li Bai and Su Shi were born there, and it is not accidental. Their paths are more in the same place. Li Bai couldn't bend his eyebrows and bend his waist to deal with the powerful, so he left Chang'an. The same is true of Su Shi, his mind is not a traditional officialdom animal. At first, he was briefly confused, when he first entered the officialdom and appointed himself as a doctor. regarded the life and death of the people at the bottom as worthless, and openly claimed that the existence of the lower class people was to ensure the happiness of the life of the scholars... Later, after being relegated to Huangzhou in the Wutai poetry case, and cultivating on the slope in the east of the city, he returned to his roots. He is a child of nature, how can he repeat the quagmire?

So, along the way, officials at all levels along the way changed the law to mischief Su Shi, so that he had no car, no place to live, and no medicine for his illness, and the purpose was super simple. It was by torturing him that he made a show of goodwill to Zhangdun!

Historically, almost no one has ever been able to return alive from the exile on Hainan Island. Su Shi's mood when he crossed the sea was sad, this is not only a matter of life and death, but also a matter of dignity. Unlike the West, China is a glorious adventure that only powerful men dare to do, and it would be even more perfect if they could kill people and set fires in the process, and bring back a ship full of gold, silver, jewelry, and beautiful slaves. But in China, going to sea is dishonorable. Parents are there. Not far away. Because you still have to worship your ancestors every year, once you die outside, you will inevitably be an unfilial person!

Since ancient times, killing people is worse than killing, what is Su Shi's big crime? It's just a battle of wills. He was forced to come to this step. In leap February 1097, Su Shi crossed the sea and began a three-year trip to Changhua... These 3 years are the most difficult period of Su Shi's life, and they are also the fullest and most fulfilling period of his life. Su Shi finally had his own home there. But the difficulty of survival is unimaginable, after a single autumn rain, he actually found 1 liter of termites in the bed tent...

Not to mention everyday life. Daily rice, noodles, wine, sugar, etc. have to be transported from the sea from the direction of Huizhou. In this way, the price is expensive, and Su Shi can't afford it. Second, the supply is too small, and once the sea is windy and rainy, you can only starve. At this time, Su Shi was over the age of six, and he was seriously unaccustomed to water and soil, malnutrition, which ruined his health, and he and his youngest son Su Guo were both skinny and thin...

Helpless, Su Shi was bitter and happy, remembered a legend, and couldn't help laughing. It was the period of Emperor Wu of Jin, all Chinese were starving, someone was dizzy, fell into a big hole, he saw turtles and snakes in the hole, whenever the sun was shining, he stretched his head out of the cave, like swallowing the sun, he had a good look, actually strong body, better than eating rice noodles... Thinking of this, Su Shi smiled at his youngest son: Come on, let's eat some sunshine like this...

This is the spiritual core of Po Xian, in the face of a predicament, even a mortal predicament, no cursing, no depression, no remorse, just like a hero once said, "Death smiles at everyone, all people can do is to smile at death" It is a coward who bows his head in front of the fierce, and he returns with a roar that is a warrior, but he still falls into the inferior, because he is affected by the other party. Like Su Shi, still keep smiling, keep the lively and flexible light in the depths of the soul, don't let it be gray, don't let it be violent, this is a different kind of pride - let the beautiful forever beautiful, the rain in the sky will never lose its original cleanliness because it falls on the ground and the mire...

The constant torture made Su Shi's light brighter, and the farther he was degraded, the closer he was to the hearts of the people. On his way to the south, there is a unique scenery, which is a legend of high love that has never been seen in all dynasties...

When he was demoted to Huizhou, Suzhou Dinghui Temple Elder Shouqin sent his disciple Zhuo Qishun to walk thousands of miles to visit him. Wu Ziye, an old friend and hermit for many years, rushed to live with him for a few months, despite his old age and tiring travel. After being relegated to Danzhou, Wu Ziye, a 73-year-old Meishan native Chaogu, Yang Jifu crossed the sea to visit him again and accompanied him through the difficult times of the first few months. Wang Kai-shek, a native of Chaozhou, followed all the way, helping the Su family live like a servant, and even did things like building a house himself. There are also many students from all over the world who ask him for teaching, among which the matter of Jiang Gongbi, a native of Hainan, is the most famous.

Hainan Island is too remote, and there are few literate people, so how can we talk about articles? Until the founding of the Song Dynasty for nearly 140 years, there was still not a single Jinshi. This is really no way, learning is about inheritance, even if it is a great genius Su Shi, who is not born, he must have an excellent gentleman to enlighten him.

Jiang Gongbi was self-taught, and when it was time to be promoted, God blessed Su Shi and demoted him to his hometown. Su Shi patiently instructed him, and when he parted, he inscribed a poem on his fan - how can the sea break the earth's veins, and the Zhu Ya end is unprecedented. After writing these two sentences, I suddenly stopped writing. Jiang Gongbi was puzzled, Su Shi said, "Hou Ru Dengke, when you are your foot" Many years later, Jiang Gongbi finally won the title of the gold list, but unfortunately Dongpo had passed away at that time. He traveled thousands of miles to Xuzhou to find the aging Su Zhe, and Su Zhe made up the whole poem for his brother on the fan - the growth of Yunjian has been different, and the ancient ginger has been merry. It is suitable from the Qiongguan Fish and Dragon Cave to show off the Yangpo Hanmo field. The sea is broken, and the cliff is unprecedented. Thousands of people look at the brocade clothes every day, so that the letter Dongpo's eyes are long.

This poem witnesses the success of the first Jinshi on Hainan Island, which was completed by the Su brothers of the Eight Great Families.

The above things are very sunny. is very admirable, it seems that this is the spiritual core of Su Shi? But if that's the case, then Su Shi is just a master of the Spiritual Victory Method, and he just keeps himself from crying in the adversity. What makes it great?

Su Shi never gave up hope, he always missed the north and firmly believed that he would go back. 3 years after being demoted, one day Su Shi felt something, and said to Su Guo, "I vow not to be an overseas person, and I feel that I have returned to the Central Plains recently" For this reason, he washed the inkstone and burned incense and prayed to the sky. Write the 8 most proud articles of your life. If the word is good, there is hope for the north to return. On that day, the 65-year-old Su Shi concentrated, splashed ink, and wrote 8 famous articles one by one, which was actually good! Su Shi is overjoyed, I am undoubtedly back!

Even if it's late, it's still waiting for that day. By the way: this thing is true. These 8 articles were later collected by a wonderful person. This person is the most successful person in the history of the Song Dynasty who has done the special profession of eunuch, such a person actually claims to be Su Shi's illegitimate son, and he is a posthumous person...

Su Shi crossed the sea and returned north on June 20, 1100. After the end of the 7-year cultural journey, what awaits him in front of him is finally a smooth road, a long-lost sunshine... It's a pity that God only left him a little more than 1 year to reminisce about all this. Su Shi went all the way to the north, visiting his hometown and meeting old friends along the way. cut off all the grievances in his life one by one, and even wrote to Zhang Dian that he didn't mind the intersection of his life.

66-year-old Su Shi is in Changzhou. Died on the night of July 18, 1101. For Su Shi, let's forget his officialdom experience, what we should remember is his poetry and articles, he is China's first genius since the Tang Dynasty, after the Northern Song Dynasty, Chinese literati are like the sand of the Ganges, incalculable, but no one can surpass him... The tribulations of a lifetime seem to be the inspiration given to Su Shi by God. Every bit of his mind fluctuates is a spiritual treasure of the Chinese nation and even the entire human race.

Li Bai is elegant, majestic, incomprehensible, and extremely talented, but when he is happy, he is dissolute, and when he is frustrated, he sings and cries for a long time, the fluctuations are too great, and he is completely affected by the outside world. Although Du Fu is worried about the country and the people, he is sincere, but unfortunately he is too worried, and Du Shi will inevitably be stained with gloom. Only Su Shi, no matter what the circumstances, there is always a blooming orchid in his heart. There is a Maolan tree in the heart, and it is not bound by the world. This calm beauty, no matter how much torture there is, still blooms peacefully... From a certain point of view, this is also the epitome of the fate of the Song Dynasty and the culture of the Song Dynasty...

After treating Fan Chunren and Su Shi well, he praised the newly enthroned Song Huizong for a while... Don't be busy! Zhao Ji felt that he could play it again and let the praise reach a climax!

The climax is achieved by two parts: inside the palace and outside the palace. In the palace, the Empress Dowager Xiang, who had endured for 6 years, finally waited for all-round happiness. In order to survive Song Zhezong's death and Song Huizong's establishment, she ran barefoot in the palace, crying and shouting for sympathy, is it easy for her? Now that it's easy to look forward to a good day, how can we continue? Even if he is too old to speak, he is not in danger like Song Zhezong when he was critically ill? You have to plan ahead!

By careful calculation, she had to do two things. 1. Restore Montess. Meng was the empress chosen by Empress Dowager Gao, and she was degraded to have her own reasons for being stupid and the inside story of political struggle. Now that she is in trouble, bring her up, and she will be grateful to repay her. In this way, the interests of the Empress Dowager Gao, the Xiang family, the Meng family and other 3 generations of queens will be formed, one will be prosperous, and one will be lost, she will definitely protect herself like she did to protect the Empress Dowager Gao, and at the same time suppress the Empress Liu appointed by Song Zhezong?

Originally, the Liu family had won a big victory and became the only queen. But at this time, Meng suddenly resurrected, and he was actually going to be tied? It's unbearable! Liu's Anger - What is the juxtaposition for Lu? I don't want to tie!

On May 10, another news came, saying to the Queen Mother: You are not tied! From today on, your name is Empress Yuanfu, and Meng's name is Empress Yuanyou, and when you two meet, you have to salute her first, and then she will return the salute...

Liu is almost angry, but thinking that he is still young, he can survive like the Empress Dowager Xiang, and now in this year, who knows what it will be like in a few years?

She decided to wait! The Queen Mother is not! She knew she was old. She has seen too many deaths, and she can't help but think about what happened after her death - if she is really dead, can Meng Shi control the overall situation? With Song Huizong alone, it is difficult for the Meng clan to control! Plus Liu's? The situation is not good! Plus Concubine Zhu? That's his sworn enemy, who should have been the first old woman in the harem! What can the Meng clan do if it is abolished and re-established?

Thinking about it, thinking about it, the Queen Mother Xiang's health became worse and worse, and she was soon bedridden and dying. But that's it, the healthy Song Zhezong's biological mother, Concubine Zhu, died 1 year after her death... How is this going on? There's no evidence to prove who did it, but it happened. So more than half a year later, the Empress Dowager Xiang, who had done these two things, could be said to be completely relieved and happy to die...

Outside the palace, on the 23rd, Zhao Ji restored the reputation and rewarded the old party veterans who were nailed to the pile of shame for Wen Yanbo, Wang Qi, Sima Guang, Lu Gongzhu, Lv Dafang, Liu Zhi, Liang Tao and other 33 people, and rebuffed the previous decisions made by Song Zhezong and Zhang Dian, so that they could become saints again...

After these things were done, the image of Zhao Ji of Song Huizong became super sage, so that the old party members who spread all over the world shouted long live, it is really the only Ming monarch seen in the Great Song Dynasty since Renzong!

After gaining great fame, Song Huizong raised the butcher's knife at the members of the new party in the court. Chen Qiang, Zou Hao, Feng Ji, Chen Shixi and other old party officials trembled with excitement: This is actually true? During the entire Shaosheng Yuan Fu years, the old party was tossed by 2 people, and now they can take revenge! Zhang Dun, Cai Bian, you also have today!

The officials of the whole capital and the members of the old party all over the world worked together, and the impeachment chapter flew into the palace like snowflakes, and soon the quantitative change caused a qualitative change, and Zhang and Cai could be convicted!

On May 19, Shangshu Youcheng Cai Bian was dismissed. On September 8, Shangshu's left servant shot Zhang Dun and was dismissed.

Seeing this, the Empress Dowager Xiang was finally satisfied. He was removed from government on July 1. I can finally wait for death quietly... (To be continued......)
