Admire Su Shi's twilight spring words, he and Li Chang are soul confidants, and Naqu Yuan is used as a spiritual beacon
"There is no wind and flowers that fall on their own.
Lonely garden, willow old cherry over.
The sunset is still sitting, and the mountains are a little green and the clouds are broken.
The road ends with the river turning to the rudder.
Tether fishing village, dark moonlight.
With the flying soul of the battle, I think of the king and think of me." Su Shi "Butterfly Love Flower , Twilight Spring Farewell Li Gongxuan"
The 34-year-old Su Shi, who gave his father three years of filial piety, returned to the imperial court at this time, and he wanted to make great achievements, but he was facing the changes in the court. His mentor Ouyang Xiu was no longer in the court and was released as an official.
Wang Anshi has already carried out the reform of the law, and vigorously carried out reforms, hoping to adjust the interest structure of the Song Dynasty in the fastest way and implement the Qingmiao Law, but in the process of implementation, there were deviations, harming the interests of some ordinary people. Su Shi's mentor Ouyang Xiu proposed the drawbacks of the Qingmiao Method, but it was not adopted. For the smooth progress of Wang Anshi's reforms, Ouyang Xiu was transferred to the local area.
Su Shi was originally dissatisfied with this practice of purging old ministers in order to implement a certain policy, which is easy to think of as a political struggle, and he also saw the toughness and bias in the implementation of the Qingmiao Law, which further emphasized this understanding. He couldn't bear it anymore and wrote to the emperor about the drawbacks of the new law. Of course, it is not one person who holds this view of him. In order to prevent Su Shi's group from interfering with the change, the iron-blooded prime minister Wang Anshi instructed people to participate in Su Shi's book. As a result, Su Shi, like his teacher, was transferred out of the court and went to Hangzhou to make a general judgment.
Of course, the unlucky one is not a person, there is also Li Changzi Gongxuan, and it is earlier than Su Shi's bad luck. In fact, Li Chang and Wang Anshi have a good personal relationship, and Su Shi is also very good. Li Chang was 10 years older than Su Shi and was a counselor at this time, and although his image was short and fat, it did not prevent him from becoming a small cannonball among the counselors. He was not satisfied with Wang Anshi's new law, even if Wang Anshi was willing to appoint him, he also refused, and what was more serious was that he not only refused but also opposed it with great fanfare, and the result was that he was sent out as an official, a year earlier than Su Shi.
When Su Shi was demoted to Hangzhou, this Li Changzheng was transferred to Ezhou. Li Chang turned to Hangzhou to see Su Shi, and Li Chang and Su Shi, who were almost half a hundred, had endless words, because they were poetry friends and even more court officials with similar encounters, who did what they should do, and worried, and were reduced to the wrong place, of course, their hearts were still tied to the government. The arrival of old friends eased Su Shi's depressed atmosphere, and everyone still encouraged each other to look at future changes.
Su Shi bid farewell to Li Chang and Li Gongxuan in the garden of the Hangzhou pier. It's spring twilight. Although Su Shi is only 34 years old, in the face of Li Chang, there is no sense of twilight in middle age.
"There is no wind and flowers falling on their own, lonely gardens, willow old cherries."
Especially Li Chang, if he only wanted to keep his official position, Man could not be silent about Wang Anshi's new law. But he was against it, and su Shi was also against it. The result was more or less unexpected, and if the emperor did not change his ways, they would be falling flowers. In fact, this is also the case, but all those who echo it are quickly promoted, and the line of fire is in the middle. Compared with those who are full of ambition, Li Chang and Su Shi are typical of falling flowers and flowing water, and the spring breeze is not moderate. And the flowers are very interesting, referring to the natural withering of flowers. Li Chang and Su Shi chose a path from the heart.
Naturally, such results are not surprising. They're obsolete.
"The sunset is still sitting, and the mountains are a little bit cross-border and broken."
I like the atmospheric brightness. The sunset by the river shone on the two men sitting. At this time, if it is the Shangwei Festival, it is also very appropriate, two poets and civil officials who were forced to fall, sitting on the pavilion, the complaints and opinions are finished, but the remaining two real people, to see the spring sunset, the distant green mountain area under the oblique sun revealed a resolute figure. This is the pride of the green mountains that do not change, and the green water flows forever.
In fact, they still have confidence in their hearts. They are green mountains, not with the flowers blossoming and falling, but this is a rare scene of the outside, mutual friendship and life encouragement.
"The road ends and the river turns back to the rudder. Tie the boat lonely village, the moon is dark and lonely. ”
This is the journey to Ezhou that Li Chang imagined Li Chang would face, a journey from mountain to water, a peak circuit, and a difficult and lonely trip. In fact, it is not necessarily a lone boat to go to the post, the Song Dynasty's water transport is very developed, and the official waterway is usually a large ship. But this is obviously the imaginary path of life and career.
Li Chang went to Ezhou this time, although he did not return to the court, but the administrative level was still upgraded by a notch. But who knows what will happen in the future? Li Chang, like Su Shi, is a person who insists on his own, but they are also thrown far away from the rivers and lakes, unable to influence the government and politics, and scattered everywhere, and can only rely on the ideas in their hearts to insist on loneliness.
The lights of the lonely fishing boat are Li Chang's and Su Shi's.
"With the flying soul of the battle, I think of the king and think of me."
Li Chang went to Ezhou, Hubei Province, where there was a Chu celebrity Qu Yuan. If you are lonely in your heart, you think of Qu Yuan, which is our common spiritual yearning. If you feel lonely, think of him, and what is more, you and I will miss each other. When I think of you, you will definitely miss me.
The friendship between two young people in the middle of the world is based on such a mutual understanding, and it is an endless spiritual and psychological support. We are all Chu Chen, but we are not ashamed. Doing things like this, and Li Chang specially came to see Su Shi, even if life is stormy, what can't be overcome?
This song is contrary to Su Shi's heroism, but it is more real, more warm, deeper, more readable atmosphere and emotional sincerity.
At this time, Li Chang and Su Dongpo were not depressed about their encounters, but they were all worried about each other's spirit and state.
Li Chang, who had been demoted first, did not come to see Su Shi as an elder, and Su Shi returned the gift with such implications that he compared Qu Yuan to li Chang. Always let us stay away from the wind and clouds, like green mountains waiting for the clouds to clear.
He and Li Chang are soul confidants, and Naqu Yuan is used as a spiritual beacon.
In fact, Su Shi's encounter was much bleaker than his words.
Although Li Chang was sent abroad to be an official, he did not have any literary prison, and for ten years he became an official in various places and worked hard to do a good job in political achievements. However, Su Shi was involved in the literal prison of the Wutai poetry case and almost lost his life.
12 years later, Li Chang was recalled to the imperial court, and he tried his best to get Su Shi to return to the imperial court. In the position of Rebbe Shangshu, he named Su Shi by name, but the result did not pass. At this time, Su Shi was in the distant Changzhou, and had just solved the problem of food and clothing. Li Chang believed in Su Shi, believed in his loyalty to the imperial court, and believed in his talents.
It wasn't until Su Shi was 47 years old and Li Chang was 57 years old that the two met in the capital. Su Shi officially made a comeback, and the two people had been 13 years away from the original farewell.
It can also be regarded as two green mountains, which were kept until the day when the clouds dispersed and the moon was bright.
In fact, the wind and rain can never stop, but what I admire is the mutual knowledge and support of the souls of two people, a sentence of Chu soul, a sentence of mutual thought, seeing each other's you and me, on the road of life, there are such friends, not lonely.
In fact, Wang Anshi changed the law for the good of the country, although Su Shi went through hardships, he still visited this famous minister who had once suppressed him, at this time Wang Anshi cloth old man, also once saved Su Shi's life, looking back on life, whether Wang Anshi, Su Shi, Li Chang, are all patriotic figures like Qu Yuan, this is a strange place in the history of the Song Dynasty.
