Romantic figures through the ages _ Su Shi

"The river of no return, waves, eternal romantic figures. Old camp west, people say it's the war of the Three Kingdoms, Battle of Red Cliffs. The steep rock wall, like thunder waves lapping against the river bank, waves like rolling up thousands of snow. ……"

Every time I read these magnificent words, through thousands of years, I seem to see a man in a blue shirt, handsome in spirit and with deep eyes, standing on the edge of the rolling Yangtze River. ? He is Su Shi, a famous writer in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Su Shi is from Sichuan. He, his father Su Xun and his younger brother Su Zhe are famous for their literature. They are called "Su San" and rank among the "Eight Masters in Tang and Song Dynasties". He, Huang Tingjian, Mi Fei and Cai Xiang are also called the four great calligraphers in the Song Dynasty.

China has thousands of years, and there are countless famous literati in history. But often poetry is good and people are not kind enough; Good character, poetry is not bright. Stone, piano, chess, books, paintings, character and moral character are extremely attractive, which is really rare. For thousands of years, people's love and infatuation with Su Shi has been increasing day by day. In addition to admiring his unparalleled talent, I think it may also be because he is intelligent but kind, humorous and full of sense of justice, unrestrained in elegance and free and easy in hardship, which makes people unable to help but fall for it.

First, Su Shi's talent and charm

He is a poet. Whether traveling around the mountains, drinking under the moon, or reuniting with relatives, people can't help but think of Su Shi and his familiar noun phrases. When we climb Lushan Mountain, we will chant "I don't know the true face of Lushan Mountain, but toward which corner of the mountain"; Walking around the West Lake, we will admire that "the West Lake is always more appropriate than the West Lake"; Looking at the Yangtze River, we will sing "No Return to One River, Romantic Figures through the Ages"; When celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival, we will silently say "I wish you a long time, a long way to go" ... No matter how the world changes, these words seem to have endless vitality and vitality, which are closely combined with the beautiful scenery of the famous mountains and rivers of the motherland and festivals, and are praised by people from generation to generation.

He is a calligrapher. The most important school of regular script in ancient China was "Yan Liu Ou Su". The most famous calligrapher in Song Dynasty was "Su Huang Camouflage", and Su Shi was among them. Until now, some people are still practicing his style carefully.

He is a painter. Su Shi's theory of painting and calligraphy has a far-reaching influence on later generations. He advocates that there should be affection outside the painting and that the painting should have sustenance, and that "poetry and painting should be unified, ingenious and fresh". Su Shi loved bamboo all his life. "There is no meat to eat and no bamboo to live. No meat makes people thin, and no bamboo makes people vulgar. " He is good at painting, "you must have a good idea first", which is the origin of the idiom "have a plan".

Second, Su Shi's charm as an official

Su Shi is not only a versatile child prodigy, but also a competent and popular official.

He cares about the sufferings of the people. When I was an official in Xuzhou, the Yellow River burst and the flood was terrible, flooding many counties. The flood quickly rushed to Xuzhou, and the people panicked and the rich fled. Su Shi was worried that the rich people would be shaken when they ran away, so he said to the rich people, "I will never let the flood enter the city!" " "After the people calmed down, Su Shi asked the officers and men to fight floods together and built a long dike. It rained for a day and a night, and the flood kept rising. Su Shi built a hut at the head of the city, lived in it day and night, directed the flood control, and finally saved Xuzhou City.

During his tenure in Hangzhou, he found that the West Lake was silted up. So someone reported to the court that 200 thousand migrant workers were used to dig deep into the river bed and build long dams with dug mud. This is the famous Su Causeway. When building a long dike, Su Shi ordered people to plant willows widely on the dike. Now, when I come to the West Lake, I can still see the weeping willows beside Su Causeway swaying in the wind. He once wrote poems describing the different scenery of the West Lake in different weather: the water is bright and sunny, the mountains are empty and rainy. If there are more dead beauties in the West Lake, C+ is so appropriate. This beautiful little poem is regarded as a masterpiece of praising the West Lake.

How many romantic figures have disappeared in the long river of history. However, whenever you look up at the historical sky, you will find a superstar in the Northern Song Dynasty, shining in the cultural history of China, never back down. He is Su Shi, a romantic figure in my heart forever.
