Chapter 1,455 Literature and Politics

The two still had different political opinions, but this did not hinder their personal relationship, and they had a lively exchange of poetry and singing.

Literally, the two did not give in to each other and made fun of each other.

We are both great writers, but when we write a lot, it is inevitable that our hands will sometimes become slippery.

When he saw Su Dongpo's "The Story of Drunken Baitang", Wang Anshi commented: "This is not a story at all. This is clearly a treatise by Zizhan. Well, it should be called "The Theory of the Advantages and Disadvantages of Han and Bai"."

An essay is an argumentative essay, and a note is a prose. The difference between an essay and a note is literary talent.

Among Han Yu and Bai Juyi, Han Yu's reputation was more important, but Su Dongpo often compared himself with Bai Juyi, so he was dissatisfied: "The Xianggong's "Qianzhou Xueji" is not even a discussion, it is a clear policy, "

School policy."

Policies are articles, and the emphasis is on clarity, but their literary talent is inferior to that of argumentative essays.

However, although the two of them kept teasing each other, they actually admired each other's good works in articles and poems.

One day, Wang Anshi came to invite Su Shi to play. He saw a poem on the table, which included "The peaks are like cleverly blocking the sun, and the river is far away and floats in the sky." He sighed: "I have never written poems like these two lines in my life."

When Su Shi was talking about poetry, he also spoke highly of Wang Anshi's "If you accumulate plum trees at night, worship peaches at night", he believed that "after Qu Song Dynasty, for more than a thousand years, the syntax of "Li Sao" has not been restored, and it is now seen.

Of."

Wang Anshi was very happy: "Feizi is flattering when he sees it, and I am so arrogant, but it is not the way of a vulgar person!"

There is also a story that happened in Jinling. The magistrate of Jinling at that time was Chen Yi, who often accompanied the two of them on tours and paid for the treats.

One day, the three of them traveled to Jiangshan Mountain. Wang Anshi said to Su Shi: "Zizhan can sing about such beautiful scenery."

Su Shi composed a poem as soon as he picked up his pen.

For thousands of years, dragons and tigers have coexisted, and the public has risen and died in one fell swoop. The wind is blowing drizzle, and the grass is flowing across the river. The elders from the south of the Yangtze River stay with the public.

The public chariot flew through the colorful mist. A red luan rode on a green luan. But I was surprised that the name of this continent was an egret. It was not my companion. It flew away even though it was about to descend.

A few days after Su Shi left Jinling, Chen Yi's incident happened. When he took office in Kaifeng Prefecture, this boy secretly exchanged an ordinary wooden Buddha statue for a sandalwood Buddha statue?

He had only been the governor of Jinling for a few days and was demoted to the Jianchang Army.

After Wang Anshi learned about it, he couldn't help laughing: "The egret in Zizhan's song is unintentional?"

After bidding farewell to Wang Anshi, Su Shi followed the river to Yangzhou and visited Lu Gongzhu, who was still in Yangzhou at that time.

Lu Gongzhu received him and gave him wine, but he knew that this was a disaster and did not talk to him.

Su Dongpo didn't care, he just ate and drank. Did he lie down drunk? When he woke up, he left a poem on the fan of the banquet singer: "The rain, leaves, wind, branches, and dawn are evenly distributed. The green yin and green seeds are pure and dustless. I chant Rao leisurely."

When you say "house support", you must believe that Yuan Ming is a pleasant person."

The poem actually contains the meaning of mocking Mr. Lu for worrying about gains and losses and not being indifferent enough. However, after reading enough of Mr. Lu's works, he is still speechless.

I won’t talk to you, this scourge!

After bidding farewell to Lu Gongzhu, Da Su turned north and visited Ruizhou to visit Zhang Fangping, who was serving as an official. He received a lesson and did not arrive in Changzhou until September.

There is a long bridge in Changzhou. When Su Shi passed by, he wrote the inscription "The Bridge where Marquis Xiao of Jin and Zhou Dynasties Killed Jiaos" and erected it beside the road.

In Changzhou, Su Shi finally tasted a delicious puffer fish.

Su You liked to eat mushrooms, but Su Shi believed that mushrooms grew in sludge and caused miasma, and eating mushrooms could easily lead to poisoning.

The Empress Dowager issued a hand-written edict saying: "The late emperor abandoned the world, and the emperor was young. When will this happen, and you will resign?"

Let Liang Weijian announce the decree: "I have come here early to prepare the report and prepare for your wishes. Then I will issue an edict to open up the way for you to implement it when you take office."

What this means is that your suggestions are very good and can be implemented after you take up the job.

There is another layer below: Look at the three people in front of you. If you don't accept it, what you say may not be perfectly implemented by the court.

"I just don't dare to say goodbye."

In the fifth month, Guiwei, Lu Gongzhu arrived.

Upon entering, the Empress Dowager sent an envoy to give him food.

Lu Gong wrote a memorial: "The late emperor established a new official system and set up admonishment officials to be responsible for admonishment and correct speech. The number of official positions set is very appropriate."

"However, the official title of the imperial censor is the emperor's eyes and ears. However, in recent years, the story of Liucha has been cited exclusively to examine the execution efficiency of the six departments, which is inappropriate."

"Please stop investigating the case, appoint four or six censors to speak out, and still give edicts to the officials. The censor must speak outright to correct the faults of the superiors, to point out the faults of the current affairs, and to point out the traitors of the officials. , Chen Xiamin’s suffering.”

After Lu Gong wrote the above ten things, the Empress Dowager sent an envoy to Lu Gong to write: "After reading Ai Qing's report, it is of great enlightenment. When it comes to relieving the suffering of the people and renewing the new policy, who should come first? "

Gengyin, Lu Gong wrote a memorial: "Since Wang Anshi has been in power and changed the old laws, the officials have commented on the inconvenience, saying that they have undermined the laws and must be abolished."

"Among them, the young shoots, the law of exemption from service, takes all the wealth of the people; the law of Baojia, the preservation of horses, uses up all the people's resources; the market changes, the law of tea and salt, takes away all the people's benefits, if there are many of them .”

"However, there must be skill in making changes, and there is no need to rush."

"It's like the method of young crops, but if you don't compare schools year by year, you won't be credited in lawsuits, and the people will avoid the trouble of being suppressed."

"The method of exemption from service should be to take less of the remaining amount and use it according to the employment situation, so as not to make the subordinates lose nothing."

"The law of Baojia is to stop teaching and learning during the winter months during the farmer's break. We still entrust the road supervisor to propose a proposal. It will not hinder the farmers or harm the people, but the common people will have a little peace of mind."

"As for the method of protecting horses, it is known that there were officials in the previous dynasty who followed it."

"The method of market exchange, the late emperor especially felt that it was harmful rather than beneficial."

"As for Fujian, Jiangnan and other roads, too much tea and salt are sold, and the people there are barely able to make a living, and they are afraid that everything will be given up."

"As for the southern salt method, the three-way protection is especially suitable for those who are first to reform."

"Your Majesty will definitely improve the government of the common people so that it will not frighten things but actually benefit the people. The most urgent task is not to appoint people."

It should be said that Lu Gongzhu was much more understanding in updating the new law than Sima Guang, who had been without practice for a long time.

Then Lu Gongzhu began to recommend talents to the court: "Sun Jue is upright and knowledgeable, and can serve as an admonishment official. Fan Chunren is strong and powerful, and can serve as an admonishment official or the right minister of the household department. Li Changqing is upright and guarded, and can serve as the imperial censor Zhongcheng. "Liu Zhi is a talented person and can serve as a censor. Su Shi and Wang Yansou are both talented and can serve as admonishers or censors."

In the end, he was still wary of the court being too hasty: "Wang Anshi proposed a new law, and Su You once prepared detailed regulations and analyzed the pros and cons, but many of them were not tolerated."

"After that, everyone fell into the same trap, foresight was like a god."

"If you want to open up more now, will there be no disadvantages of placing stones in the future?"
