Movzun before the bright moon night
In the second year of Yuan Feng (1079), Su Shi suffered a senseless disaster and was imprisoned in prison for the "Wutai Poetry Case".
On the way to escort Su Shi was once quite pessimistic, and when the future was treacherous and his life and death were uncertain, he wanted to jump into the river and commit suicide. After being imprisoned, Su Shi buried Qing Jindan in the soil, preparing to commit suicide once he learned of the rumor that he would be executed.
Soon after Su Shi was imprisoned, the child servants and singers in the family all went to find a new master, but Chaoyun insisted on staying, silently supporting this untimely man with a full stomach.
At this time, Su Shi looked at the cold iron window in prison and felt depressed, and everything was xiao Suo. He is now forty-two, his teeth are shaking, his sideburns are getting whiter, his hair is getting weaker, and his ambition is getting weaker. Thinking back to the heroic and uninhibited self of a teenager, to this day, after experiencing the ups and downs of the eunuch sea, I can't help but be sad and silent.
Li Ding, who was then the imperial historian in the imperial court, racked his brains to fabricate charges and wanted to put Su Shi to death. Fortunately, the upright men of the old and new factions came to the rescue, and Song Shenzong was still reasonable and spared him, and pardoned him in the first month of the following year.
In the third year of YuanFeng (1080), after his release from prison, Su Shi was demoted to the position of deputy envoy of the Huangzhou regiment. The physical and mental torture in prison has left him devastated and he has lost a lot of weight. At this time, Su Shi had no intention of creating, wandering in Huangzhou to find landscapes and rivers, and perceive nature.
After the Wutai poetry case, his style of writing has changed a lot compared with before. Su Shi before yuanfeng two years ago, the literary style was heroic and super-easy, arbitrary, open and closed; Su Shi after yuanfeng two years later, the literary style gradually became indifferent and broad, leisurely and far-reaching, and the literary high meaning was also wide.
In the early years, Su Shi wrote: "Life is everywhere like, it should be like Feihong stepping on the slush." In the fourth year of Xi Ning, he wrote "Heaven desires snow, clouds fill the lake, and the building platform is bright and the mountains are destroyed", such a very picturesque poem.
In fact, I think That Su Shi should not only be defined as the spokesman of the Flamboyant School, and his depiction of delicate and gentle mourning is also superior compared with the best lyrics of the Gentle School—In the second year of Zhiping, Su Shi mourned his deceased wife Wang Fu and wrote:
"Ten years of life and death are vague, not thinking, unforgettable." Thousands of miles of lonely graves, nowhere to say desolate. Even if they do not know each other, they are full of dust and sideburns.
At night, the ghost dream suddenly returned home, the small window, is grooming. There are no words for each other, but there are thousands of tears. It is expected that the intestines will be broken every year, the night of the bright moon, and the short Matsuoka. ”
If su Shi's words before this were unrestrained, full of spirit, poetic and delicate, and also as free as the desert for a long time; after that, Su Shi turned more to nature and realized a new situation of life - "Convergence of ordinary life, I am idle, in order to reach a state of sudden tranquility." ”
"Chibi Night Tour"
Time quietly passed to the fifth year of Song Shenzong Yuanfeng (1083), Su Shi and his friend went out in the spring, the wind and rain suddenly arrived, the friend was deeply embarrassed, but Su Shi did not care, calmly, walked slowly, and chanted freely:
"Don't listen to the sound of the leaves beating through the forest, why not groan and walk slowly." Bamboo cane mango shoes light victory over horses, who is afraid? A cloud of smoke and rain is a life of peace.
The steep spring wind blows wine awake, slightly cold, but the mountain head obliquely illuminates each other. Looking back at the place where it has always been, returning, there is no wind or rain or sunshine. ”
After the chanting, the crowd sighed, what an open-minded state. This is destined to be an unworldly poem, and its nostalgia is difficult to find in ancient and modern times. Su Shi's self-sufficiency in the wind and rain, the uninhibited, the state of forgetting the unity of heaven and man, deeply won the wind and bone outside the Taoist transcendent.
《Cold Food Post》
Su Shi's state of mind in this battle also had a sudden breakthrough, and he completed an evolutionary transformation and awakening epiphany in the rain.
At this point, Su Shi's brushstrokes have gradually shifted from the radiance of his youth, the exuberance and excitement to the indifference and leisurely self-sufficiency - gradually becoming old and mature, which is said to be "the extreme of brilliance, and finally the plain." ”
