Who are Su Dongpo's confidants?

Su Shi married two wives. The first wife, Wang Fu, was the niece of Wang Fang, a scholar who paid tribute to Qingshen in Meizhou (now Qingshen in Sichuan). Su Shi was nineteen when he entered the "marriage hall", and Wang Fu was sixteen this year. According to Su Shi's own statement, he wants to live in seclusion, and he doesn't want to marry or be an official. It was only because of family pressure that I had to get married and take the Jinshi exam. But when Wang Fu entered Su Jia, Su Shi was moved by his meticulous service to his in-laws. To Su Shi's surprise, Wang Fu has never read a book, but just likes to be with him when he is studying. When Wang Fu occasionally forgets something, he can recite paragraphs of text, which makes Su Shi have to sit up and take notice of her.

In the sixth year of Jiayou (106 1), Su Shi wrote to judge Fengxiang House and took Wang Fu to his post. Su Shi is a careless character, and such a person is easy to suffer in officialdom. Wang Fu realized this, so she was very careful with her husband. When Su Shi receives guests, Wang Fu often hides behind the curtain and listens. After the guests left, she quickly made a judgment: some people can't rely on what you like to hear; Someone flatters you too much. Once you lose the use value, he will soon betray you, or even hit people when they are down! What's more, most of the subsequent endings are consistent with Wang Fu's judgment. Unfortunately, good people don't live long. In the second year of Zhiping (1065), as soon as Su Shi returned to Bianjing from Fengxiang, Wang Fu died of illness. Su Shi was very sad and planned to send Wang Fu's body back to his hometown for burial in his spare time. The following year, when his father Su Xun died, Su Shi handled the two funerals together.

The love with Wang Fu left an indelible impression on Su Shi's heart. Until the seventh year of Xining (1075), when he was the chief judge of Hangzhou, he dreamed of being with Wang Fu again, but the scene of "gathering" was particularly bleak, so he began to write the eulogy "Jiang Shenzi": "Ten years of life and death are two boundless. Never think, never forget. A lonely grave thousands of miles away, desolate and nowhere to talk about. Even if we don't know each other, our faces are dusty and our temples are frosty. When night came, my dream suddenly came home. Xiao Xuan window, get dressed. Looking at each other without words, only a thousand lines of tears are expected to be heartbroken every year, and the lack of the moon will be exhausted. "

Su Shi's second wife was named Wang Runzhi. In "To Wang Junxi's Father-in-Law", he said: "When marriage begins, the husband is still a son. If you allow your virtue, it will be impossible. Only men and women are heirs. " It means that Su married your niece first (the son of an uncle was called your son in ancient times), but unfortunately he died at a young age. And your little daughter leap, became Sue's wife. Wang Runzhi was born in Li Qing for eight years (1048), and Wang Fu was born in Baoyuan for two years (1039), with a difference of nine years. Some people say that as early as when Su Shi married Wang Fu, Wang Runzhi deeply regretted that he could not marry a talented cousin. This is not true: when Wang Fu 16 got married, Wang Runzhi was only 7 years old. How could he regret it?

In what year did Su Shi continue to marry Wang Runzhi? There is no ready-made documentary evidence. Arguably, it should be the third year of Zhiping (1066). When he went back to his hometown to bury his father, he agreed to get married before he returned to Beijing. The ancients had to mourn for 27 months. Su Xun died in April of the third year of Zhiping, so Su Shihe should get married after July of the first year of Ning, JaeHee (1069). According to the chronicle, Su Shi was spared mourning in the first year of Xining and returned to Beijing in the second year. Based on this, it can be concluded that Su Shi got married soon after the mourning period expired, and then returned to Bianjing together. Their wedding date will be at the end of the first year of Ning. In this regard, there is conclusive evidence: "Song Shi Su Shichuan" said: "I know Hangzhou, the 19th of the New Year, and I will explain Zhejiang Road with poetry, and the Ministry of Rites will try." It is said that when Su Shi knew about Hangzhou, his son Su Guo, who was born with Wang Runzhi, had reached the age of 19, passed the provincial examination successfully, and then went to Bianjing to take the exam. Su Shi knew that Hangzhou began in July of the fourth year of Yuanyou (1089). According to the records of Bianjing site, there are only two exams between Yuan You, one for three years and the other for six years. The rural examination in Song Dynasty was held one year before the examination. According to this timetable, Su Guo participated in the rural activities of Liangzhe Road in the fifth year of Yuan You, and went to Bianjing that year. In nineteen years, Suguo was born in Xining for three years (1070). In other words, Wang Runzhi became pregnant shortly after Su Shi arrived in Bianjing. This time can never be wrong.

Two years after Xining, Su Shi became an official in Kaifeng and was sentenced to Hangzhou, Mizhou, Xuzhou and Huzhou. Just a few days after arriving in Huzhou, he was framed and imprisoned by traitors. Wang Runzhi was so scared that he didn't follow Su Shi to Bianjing Prison. A few months later, Su Shi was banished to Yingyong Huangzhou, and soon Wang Runzhi was escorted to Huangzhou by Su Zhe. This young lady is as clever as her cousin, and she is willing to live a quiet farm life with her husband. "Su Changgong Waiji" said that Su Shi was raising cattle in Dongpo, but he got chicken pox and was dying. Wang Runzhi offered a plan: "Cook a pot of Artemisia annua soup quickly, and you will be saved." Su Shi did the same thing, and the cow really recovered.

In the eighth year of Yuanfeng (1085), Sima Guang was in power and Su Shi was pardoned as the magistrate of Dengzhou (now Penglai, Shandong). Seven days after taking office, he was recalled to North China, where he was awarded the position of's calligraphy master, and was later promoted to a bachelor's degree in Hanlin. During this period, he served as the magistrate of Hangzhou, Yingzhou (now Fuyang, Anhui Province) and Yangzhou, and returned to the DPRK as the minister of rites and the official of Hanlin. In this year, Wang Runzhi, who followed Su Shi for more than 20 years, died in Bianjing. Su Shi said in "Jin Guang Ming Jing Hou": "Shi's youngest son died, and his mother was jealous of the king of Tongan County. He died at the age of forty. Yuan You died in the capital on August 1, eight years. " As soon as Wang Runzhi closed his eyes, Su Shi was blown to Dingzhou, Hebei. Within a few days, he was banished to Huizhou and then to Hainan Island. It was not until the age of 65 that he was pardoned and returned to the north. If Wang Runzhi doesn't die, she will have to live in Lingnan with her hapless husband! These two beauties in Shu, Wangfu, add fragrance to tea, and they are all blessed. They all experienced the demeanor of Su Dongpo, a unique great genius in the history of China. From this point of view, they are really lucky.

Su Shi was accompanied by a beautiful woman named Wang, named Chaoyun, who was admitted to the room when he was sentenced in Hangzhou. Chaoyun was twelve years old that year and worked as a geisha in Hangzhou. Su Shi's Epitaph of Chaoyun said: "Mr. Dongpo's concubine is called Chaoyun, surnamed Wang, from Qiantang. Sensitive and honest, Mr. Shi has been in business for 20 years and is loyal and respectful. " It seems that "sensitivity" and "righteousness" can sum up Chao Yun's character. Although the scholars in Song Dynasty had wives around them, they could also take concubines appropriately. Chaoyun's "sensitivity" is mainly manifested in art, and it is her duty to sing for Su Shi from time to time. She followed Su Shi without fear. She was sent to Huangzhou and exiled to Huizhou, all by Su Shi's side. Three years younger (1096) One day in July, Su Shi, who was bored in Huizhou, wanted to hear Chaoyun sing, so she was ordered to sing "Little Red Apricot with Faded Flowers". Chaoyun seemed to feel something, and said with tears, "What I hate to sing most is' there are few willows blowing on the branches, and there are plenty of fragrant grass in the world'." Su Shi said sadly, "We were injured by spring, and you were injured by autumn!" " Unexpectedly, a few days later, Chaoyun died in Huizhou at the age of 34.

Su Shi has been in contact with more than these three women in his life. Ye's "Ou Bo Yu Hua" said: "King Hengshan once went to Duchang, and when he saw Pu Gong moving south as recorded in Duchang County Records, he sent his concubine to the county." Su Shi was demoted to Huizhou. In order to make my concubine Bi Tao suffer less, she was left there to fend for herself when she arrived in Duchang. For this reason, I wrote a poem quite sadly: "There are ten thousand bright lighthouses in duchang county, Poyang Lake. The water is separated from Nanshan people, and the east wind blows old peach blossoms. " Chen Hu's "Continuing the Past" added: Lu of Chenzhou once told him that He Xinlang of Su Shi mentioned "Liu Hua", and no one knew what it meant. He once saw Dongpo's manuscript in Chao Shuo's home. Chao said, "Dongpo has two concubines named Chao Yun and Liu Hua. Chaoyun died outside the ridge, and Liu Hua lived alone, so he said a lot. " It means that after the death of Chao Gai, Su Shi was accompanied by his concubine Liu Hua. There are few records about Tao and Liu Hua, and their authenticity needs further research.
