When it comes to Su Shi and Su Dongpo, both adults and children will be familiar with it. Even if you can't think of a few of his poems, you will think of Dongpo elbow, Dongpo meat, Dongpo fish, etc.
I am not a historian, nor a writer, nor a writer. I am just an ordinary housewife who has spent half my life caring for my husband and raising children. The reason why I mustered up the courage to write a novel about Su Dongpo today is entirely because of my immense respect and love for this great writer, calligrapher and painter.
Nowadays, there are many biographies about Su Dongpo, and they are all works by famous writers. I have read several of them, such as "The Biography of Su Dongpo", "Kang Zhen's Commentary on Su Dongpo", "The Juggling Life of Su Dongpo", and "The Biography of Su Shi's Pingshu". Each book is well written and has its own characteristics. It introduces Su Dongpo's life, deeds, poems, etc. In great detail, as if this great poet is standing in front of us. Despite this, I feel that I still have more to say after reading it, so I want to combine these books, concentrate the wonderful contents, and write a novel based on the strengths of each book, so as to express Su Dongpo's life more truly, coherently, and without omission...
As an ordinary person, I like his poems, and I like what he wrote to his brother, "When will the bright moon come? Asking the blue sky for wine, I don't know the palace in the sky, what year is this evening..." I like what he wrote to his wife, "Ten years of life and death are boundless, without thinking, and unforgettable. Thousands of miles of lonely grave, nowhere to say desolation..." ..." I like him standing on the red cliff. "The great rivers and rivers are swept away, and the romantic figures of the ages are on the west side of the ancient fort. Humanity is, Zhou Lang of the Three Kingdoms. Chibi..." I like that he is not afraid of hardships and optimism in his official career; I like that he still cares about the people and does his best for the people even when he is in a desperate situation...
Su Dongpo was born in the third year of Jingyou reign of Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty (December 19, 1036 in the lunar calendar). When Renzong of the Song Dynasty was in power, he lived in the dynasties of Song Yingzong, Song Shenzong and Song Zhezong. He died on July 28, 1101, when Song Huizong was in power. During the sixty-four years of his life, five emperors came to power, and the ups and downs and ups and downs were all unique...
I know that I have little talent and little knowledge, and my writing is clumsy and my mouth is clumsy, but I am still willing to devote all my efforts to writing about him.
It's hard to describe Dongpo people with thousands of words, and all kinds of emotions express what's in your heart!
Purpose: Use history as a mirror, use benevolence as a metaphor for people, and carry forward the noble virtues of Dongpo lay people.
