The imperial edict of Song Huizong.

The clouds break after the rain, and this color makes the future.
This is not a poem, but two poems. In other words, the original poem is two sentences, or it is not a poem, because it is an imperial edict. Legend has it that Song Huizong once had a dream that it would be fine after the rain. He liked the color of the sky after the rain in his dream very much, so he sent a message to the porcelain-burning craftsman: "The clouds break after the rain, and this color will make the future." I don't know how many craftsmen were stumped by this imperial edict of Hui Zong. In the end, the craftsmen in Ruzhou were even better, and they burned the color of "the clouds broke after the rain".
This poem is actually a compliment to Ru kiln porcelain.

This poem is actually a compliment to Ru kiln porcelain.
The time for firing palace porcelain in Ruyao was about 20 years from the first year of Yuan You, Song Zhezong (A.D. 1086) to the fifth year of Huizong Chongning (A.D.1KLOC-0/06), so the number of fired utensils was limited. Due to the short firing time, it is difficult to find Ruguan kiln porcelain in the Southern Song Dynasty. It was stipulated in the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties that Ru Ci should not be buried with the tomb, which shows its preciousness. It is said that Su Dongpo's will at that time, because of his loyalty to Ru Ci, will be buried next to the Ruyao site after his death.
Lu You's Notes on the Old Learning Temple records that "the old capital can't help but kiln, but the use of utensils has its own awn."
