Su Guo's calligraphy

Speaking of the famous Su Shi, I believe everyone knows very well that although he played an outstanding role in literature, he was repeatedly frustrated in his official career and was looked down upon by people at that time. After Su Shi's death, his son Su Guo had a hard time, not only bearing the "bad" reputation left by his parents, but also finding his own direction in his wandering life.

According to Wang Mingqing, a scholar in the Northern Song Dynasty, Su Guo is the third son of Su Shi, and his calligraphy and literary talent can inherit the style of his father Su Shi, so the literati at that time affectionately called him "Little Su Dongpo". During the Jingkang period, Su Guo was ordered by the imperial court to serve as the deputy governor of the Calm House. As a result, I passed by Hebei on the way and met the local Jiangyang thief on the way. As we all know, the so-called robbers are greedy people who want to live from now on and stay here to buy money. If you give them money, according to Jianghu morality, they won't hurt passing passengers, but Su Guo's reaction is different from ordinary people.

Seeing the robber's ghost knife shining with gloomy cold light, Su Guo not only failed to hand over his property honestly, but also introduced his life experience to the robber: "I said, have you heard the name of my father Su Dongpo?" His roar really scared the robbers. It is estimated that Su Guo had already drunk two glasses of wine.

"What Su Xipo, hand over your valuables quickly, or don't blame us for being rude." Fortunately, the robbers reacted quickly and continued to threaten Su Guo with a knife. It seems that he is doomed today. But at this time, Su Guo made another remark, calling robbers brothers, which completely confused their logical thinking.

"I am his third son. Can I, a great writer, live the life of an outlaw with you? " Now the robbers are more confused. Do you want to join us? However, it seems that these robbers still have some ideals to pursue, so after some discussion, the robbers feel that they should also improve their robbery culture, otherwise they will fall behind, so they surrounded the big talents and returned to the robber's cottage.

When Su Guo arrived at the robber camp, he didn't say a word, but asked the robbers for a drink. As a result, when the robber came to visit him the next day, he found that the great genius had died of alcoholism. You know, although Sue's family is a victim of political struggle, at least the lean camel is bigger than the horse, and it is natural for Sue's family to refuse to become an outlaw, so she can only choose to end her miserable life in this way.
