--"Jiangchengzi 乙卯正月二十日夜记梦"
That is really a bone-chilling cold, deep in the body has never been eradicated, ten years past, or the year of the clear pain. Su Shi's this section of words, sadness for a thousand years, carrying the moonlight of the Song Dynasty, all the way through the descendants of the time and time again feelings. "Jiangchengzi" this original monotonous words, but also factor Zhan's feelings, still shrouded in a layer of sadness, is no longer boring flat and oblique.
This is Su Shi for the original wife Wang Fu wrote a eulogy, written when the beloved wife has died ten years. After that, Su Shi remarried Wang Fu's cousin Wang Leunzhi, Su Shi's life as a eunuch, suffered from political opponents ostracized, relegated many times, Wang Leunzhi's companionship, is his spiritual pillar. They lived together for twenty-five years, during which time they experienced the "Wutai Poetry Case" and were relegated to Huangzhou, which was the most difficult and grueling life.
Although Wang Fu early in Su Shi's life, but Su Shi has never forgotten with his wife love ten years, at that time, he was still young, her departure, brought Su Shi eternal pain. He said: "do not think about it, since it is hard to forget", even if not deliberately thinking about it, but also can not forget.
But initially saw this word is in Mr. Jin Yong's work "The Legend of the Eagle Shooting Heroes" adapted version of the film and television drama, Yang Tiexin wrote to his wife Bao Xizhi's words, written on a side of plain brocade handkerchief. "Ten years of life and death", the beginning of these words as soon as it appeared, it was easily captured, and later reunited in the book, the surprise is unspeakable. That is also a deep love for his wife, although they are not separated by life and death, but separated for a full eighteen years, goodbye, is already late in life, separated by eighteen years of years, they eventually return to the old days. But Su Shi said "even if we meet should not recognize, dusty face, sideburns like frost", how would not want to see, but now dusty face, even if we meet should not recognize.
About Wang Fu, there is a "curtain after listening to" the story, said every guest visits, Su Shi in the hall to greet, Wang Fu will hide behind the screen to listen, and so the guests go, she will say their own ideas, and every proof, in the recognition of this aspect, Wang Fu really have a unique vision. And regardless of this, said Su Shi let the inner hiding behind the screen to listen to, it is enough to see his open-minded, unrestrained.
And the two marriage, more beautiful. During the Northern Song Dynasty, in the rock there is a school, Su Shi in his father under the leadership of Su Xun to study in the academy, at that time is the Qing Shen Township Tribute to the scholar Wang Fang coaching, this person is Wang Fu's father. There is a blue spring, Su Shi often come here to watch the scenery after reading, gently hit the palm, the spring will be sunken scales jumping. Later, Wang Fang invited all the literati to come to this and other beautiful name, although many people, but no one satisfied.
Until Su Shi said "call the fish pool" three words, only to make the people present screamed, then Wang Fu's maid suddenly came, presented the Wang Fu for this name, when Wang Fang took the red paper, was stunned, written on the red paper is also "call the fish pool" three words. Three words. This pair of people, it can be said that the heart of the heart, Su Shi's talent also Wang Fang very much appreciate, so the daughter will be betrothed to Su Shi.
Such a beautiful beginning, but the end will be "look at each other without words, but a thousand lines of tears" sad, and even you a lonely grave thousands of miles away, even pouring a cup of wine can not be done, it is really a year intestines broken, nowhere to say bleak.
Speaking of Wang Fu, I can not help but think of another important woman in the life of Su Shi, his concubine - dynasty clouds. Song Shenzong Xining four years, Su Shi because of the opposition to Wang Anshi's new law and was relegated to Hangzhou Tongjian, one day with a few friends to tour the West Lake, to find the kabuki dancers to help the fun, dynasty cloud is in it. There is a poem, we are all familiar with:
The water brimming with sunshine is good, the mountain color is also strange rain.
I want to compare the West Lake to Xizi, light makeup and thick smear is always appropriate.
-- "Drinking on the lake after the first sunny day"
This poem has been compiled into the elementary school textbook, but the books taught, the teacher said, only to praise the West Lake's exquisite scenery. In fact, this poem is not only to praise the West Lake, behind the implication is Su Shi first encounter with the dynasty cloud for the heart of the true feelings, praise is that the beautiful and elegant, long-sleeved dance of the woman.
According to Mao Jin's "Dongpo Notes" records: Dongpo one day out of the court, after eating, ask the abdomen Xu line, Gu said the children of the service said: "Your generation and say is in what?" A maidservant suddenly said: "are articles". Dongpo did not think so. Another person said: "full of machinery." Poe also did not think so. To Chao Yun said: "Bachelor a belly is not into the time." Poe hilarious. Praised: "know me, only the dynasty cloud also." From now on, the dynasty cloud more love and compassion.
Su Shi never lack of confidants around, this may be the sky on the talent to make up.
It is said that the dynasty cloud often sing a section of Su Shi's "Butterfly Lovers" words:
Flowers fade red apricot small. The swallows are flying, the green water around the house. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on some of the most popular products and services in the world.
The wall swing outside the wall, outside the wall, the wall, the wall in the beautiful people laugh. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands dirty.
-- Butterfly Lovers
But whenever Chaoyun sings "Willow on the branches of the willow blowing and less", he is not able to overcome the sadness, cover the sleeve and cry. Dong Po asked why, Chaoyun replied: "I can't finish (singing), the end of the world where there is no fragrant grass sentence also. Su Shi laughed: "I am sad in the fall, and you are beginning to hurt the spring!"
The lyrics are a record of a chance encounter in early summer, which, on reflection, was also a wonderful "encounter". Although there is a wall of separation, but the wall of good people crisp and clear laughter or y attracted the people outside to stop. How many times in life, you can laugh happily like this, outside the wall of people gradually fascinated, but the wall of laughter gradually disappeared, the wall of movement is also getting smaller and smaller, perhaps the good people play tired, go back to rest it! People outside the wall complained that: "love but by the ruthless annoyed", in fact, this is really unreasonable, the wall in the beautiful people and how to know that there will be a "lover" outside the wall? But this is a good fit for the reason that things are not sentimental, but people are sentimental.
I don't know if the man outside the wall has ever regretted why he didn't step forward and knock lightly on the door to see the woman inside and greet her. But may thus disturb the beauty, and such a result, although depressed, but give people unlimited reverie, which is perhaps the beauty of the wreckage!
Chaoyun singing the words of this que will cry, probably mourning in Su Shi's despondency.
After the death of Chaoyun, Su Shi "never heard this word again", in front of her tomb, but also personally inscribed a couplet:
Anachronisms, only Chaoyun can know me.
I play the old tune alone, and I think of you every time when it rains.
After Leap's death, Su Shi stopped marrying and left Chaoyun to serve him in his old age, but she was still ahead of Su Shi.
Song lyrics are divided into two major schools, the heroic and the ebullient, and Su Shi belongs to one of the representatives of the heroic school, and is called Su Xin together with Xin Qiji, another representative character. The first one is the one that is not a part of the world, and the second one is the one that is not a part of the world, and the third one is the one that is not a part of the world. Even if the open-minded such as Su Shi, with "the great river to the east, the waves are exhausted, the ancient wind and streams of characters" bold, but also has "ten years of life and death of two confused" of the broken hearted sentence.
Su Shi's life and the women of the Wang family name is quite destiny, but unfortunately, they are the first to leave him, and ultimately, he is still alone, all the past, the wind has no traces, the geese have no sound.
