Song Dynasty: Su Shi
Don't pay attention to the beating rain in the forest. Mei sings a long whistle and walks leisurely. Bamboo poles and sandals are more dexterous than riding horses. What's to be afraid of? A raincoat and hemp fiber, despite the wind and rain, still live my life.
The coolness of spring breeze awakens my wine, and the cold begins to be cold, and the peak of the sun is the sun, but it is satisfied in time. Looking back at the place where I met the wind and rain, going back, for me, there is no wind and rain, but it is still sunny.

On March 7th, Hu Sha was caught in the rain, and the servant with rain gear left early. People in the same company feel embarrassed, but I don't think so. After a while, it cleared up, so I made this word.
Ignore the sound of rain beating on forests and leaves. You might as well take a leisurely walk while singing and whistling. Bamboo poles and sandals are more agile than riding horses. What is there to be afraid of? No matter the wind and rain, I will live in hemp fiber all my life.
The spring breeze is a little cool, which makes me awake. At the beginning of the cold spring, the setting sun is in Chu Qing, and the hills welcome me at the right time. Look back at the place where I met the storm and go back. It doesn't matter to me whether it's stormy or sunny.
Background of extended data creation
This poem was written in the spring of 1082 (the fifth year of Yuanfeng in Song Shenzong). This is the third spring when Su Shi was demoted to be the deputy envoy who should stay in Huangzhou (now Huanggang, Hubei) forever because of the Wutai poetry case. The poet and his friends went out in the spring when a storm suddenly came. Friends were deeply embarrassed, but the poet didn't care, took it calmly and walked slowly.
On July 3rd, the second year of Yuanfeng, Song Shenzong officially sent a letter to Yushitai to hear Su Shi's libel case, and sent Huangfu Zun, a doctor of Taichang, to Huzhou to arrest Su Shi. On July 28th, Huangfu Zun arrived in Huzhou and escorted Su Shi back to Beijing on August 18. After that, Su Shi was put into Yushitai prison for trial.
1February 29th, after four months' trial, Su Shi was finally sentenced to "entrust Yuan Wailang, Minister of Water Affairs of Shangshu, as the deputy envoy of Huangzhou Yingyong, and set up this state without signing official business".
The so-called "resettlement" is a kind of punishment for relegated officials, which is lighter than the establishment-the household registration in relegated places is strictly controlled by local officials, but it is heavier than "residence". I can only live in a designated place, and my daily activities are also restricted, so I can't come. As for the post of Huangzhou Yingyong Agreement, it is completely nominal, which has been pointed out in the following "no business signing".
After more than 0/00 days in prison/kloc, they were relegated to the border guard, and a group of people were punished to varying degrees: among them, Shen was deprived of all official titles for leaking secrets, Wang Gong was assigned to the northwest, and Su Zhe was demoted; As for Zhang, Sima Guang, Fan Zhen and others, they were fined.
Because Yushitai has the nickname Wutai, and Su Shi's crime is mainly related to poetry, the above case is called Wutai Poetry Case.
