In fact, the person who traded maids for horses was none other than Su Dongpo, a famous sentimental genius. This story is still recorded in Love History, and its authenticity has been questioned by Su Shi researchers in past dynasties. Because it is an "orphan card", it obviously doesn't mean anything, but if it only exists here as a mouthpiece and negotiation material, it would be better to say:
There is also a maid named Chunniang in Baogong. When Chen Gong left Huangzhou, there was a messenger from Jiang Yun. I ordered Chunniang to persuade me to drink. Jiang asked, "Is Chunniang going?" Gong said, "I want to go back to my family." Jiang said, "Can I exchange a white horse for Chunniang?" Gonozhi

Su Shi, our affectionate seed, wrote many famous love poems, which is really called "infatuation"-this kind of infatuation means that he is still affectionate and can still remember the beautiful women who accompanied him. Ten Years of Life and Death in Jiangchengzi, Dead Hua Lian, Rain of the Next Man, and High Emotion Has Drived the Clouds away in Xijiang Moon. These sentences to three important women in his life, after a thousand years, are sad and moving. But here, he was banished to Huangzhou, but when he left, he changed his beloved maid-in-waiting Chunniang into a walking horse. Although it is a passive commitment, it is enough to shock everyone in the eyes of modern people. He and "Jiang Yunshi" also sang poems because of this substitution of horses:
At the expense of frost, hair, rain, snow and hooves, I will pay for the redemption of moth eyebrows. Although there is no golden moon, there are beautiful women holding jade flowers. (Jiang)
Chunniang left in a hurry, afraid to sigh or hate. Just because there are many dangers in the mountains, I changed my red powder to follow the wind. (Su)
Judging from the poems they sang, this business is to "get what they need", and this need is veiled with tenderness because of the poems. This white horse has thus become a valuable thing that can be exchanged for a person-although at that time, the value of a handmaid may really be similar to that of a good horse-and this horse is much luckier and more beautiful than the horse that was unfortunately killed for food. But then the ending of the story was unexpected:
Chunniang gathered up her clothes and said, "I heard that Duke Jing of Jin chopped the stable, and Yan Zi remonstrated it; The owner's stable burns regardless of the horse, and everyone is divided into high and low. A bachelor changes people with horses, it's a bitch! "
Chunniang didn't complete the transaction according to Su Shi's wishes, but said to her master, "Bachelor will change horses for men and turn you into a bitch." She was sarcastic and left no room. What a powerful woman. However, the truth of this story is suspicious because there are some clues here: few handmaids can casually say a word that makes Sue speechless. Even if Su Shi's handmaid (note that it is a handmaid rather than a concubine) may be contaminated with a little literary spirit, it is difficult to have the following performance:
..... So he politely declined and said, "Don't be a woman, let others take care of you for a hundred years. Today, I began to know that people are not as good as animals, and who I hate in this life. " The next step is to die of locusts. The public cherishes it.
Chunniang is really a complicated girl. She can not only criticize Su Shi by quoting the classics, but also make her answer back, which makes our Su Gong "cherish it as gold". It is hard for me to imagine that such a performance can appear on most handmaids. Besides, anyone who knows a little about Su Shi's life must be convinced of the low possibility of treating his handmaid so rashly. It's only here that I talk about Ma's "infatuation" story that I mention Sue's scandal. Now it seems that the truth is not high. I still prefer to believe that he is infatuated with the woman in his life. "I am very sad and want to pay off my previous debts, but my life is very hectic." Such a sentence is undoubtedly warm.
The best destination of a horse is undoubtedly to roam freely between heaven and earth, and its most brilliant image cannot be separated from the "male words" such as hero, soldier and battlefield. "The direction is empty, and the truth is life and death. Xiao Teng's praise for the poet is by no means light, but a real horse deserves this reputation. Only in the two stories mentioned above, they played an embarrassing role in the romantic story, just like men who have never succeeded like to compare themselves with them and let out a sigh that has not disappeared.
