Dongpo and Chaoyun Su Shi and Chaoyun

Wang Chaoyun is the concubine of Su Shi, who named her Xia Zi, 26 years younger than Su Shi. 1094 lived in Huizhou with Su Dongpo, died in the third year, and was buried in Huizhou West Lake. Because of her poor family, she was reduced to a singing and dancing class since she was a child. She was born beautiful, intelligent and good at singing and dancing. Although mixed with smoke and dust, she has a fresh and elegant temperament. Song Shenzong Xining four years, Su Dongpo was demoted to Hangzhou for opposing Wang Anshi's new law. One day, he went to visit the West Lake with some literary friends, and invited a song and dance class from Wang Chaoyun to entertain him. In the melodious sound of silk and bamboo, several dancers are full of make-up, long-sleeved and graceful, and Wang Chaoyun, who dances in the center, is particularly eye-catching for his gorgeous dance and superb dance skills. After the dance, all the dancers sat down to pour wine, and Wang Chaoyun just turned to Su Dongpo. At this time, Wang Chaoyun has changed into another costume: thick clothes, black eyebrows, slightly sipping lips, wearing a plain dress, beautiful, elegant, delicate and lovely, with a unique charm, like an empty valley and fragrance, infiltrating into Su Dongpo's heart dimmed by the changes of the world. At this time, the sunny and sparkling West Lake has become another kind of scenery because of the sudden change of weather, cloudy days and misty mountains and rivers. The beauty of mountains and lakes set each other off and become interesting. Su Dongpo was inspired to write a quatrain about the West Lake, which has been celebrated through the ages. From then on, Su Dongpo liked Wang Chaoyun very much and married her.

When Su Shi was in the most difficult time, his concubines left one after another, but Wang Chaoyun stayed with him all the time. Su Shi's confidante, Su Shi wrote the most poems to Wang Chaoyun, calling her the "Vimo Goddess". It is said that when Su Dongpo was relegated to Huizhou, Wang Chaoyun often sang "Dead Hua Lian" to relieve Su Shi's melancholy. Whenever Chaoyun sings "A few willows blow the branches", he hides his melancholy and stops crying. Dongpo asked him why, and Chao Yun replied, "If I can't finish singing, the sea is full of flowers." . Su Shi smiled and said, "I feel sorry for autumn, and you are hurting spring again!" " "It's a pity that ChaoYun also died in Huizhou before Su Shi. After Chao Yun's death, Su Shi "never listened to this statement" and remained a widow. According to Chaoyun's wishes, Su Shi buried him in the pine forest under the Great Sage Tower of Qi Temple at the southern foot of Gushan Mountain in Huizhou West Lake, and built six pavilions beside the tomb to commemorate him. The couplet written is "out of date, only Chaoyun can know me; Playing the same old tune alone, I miss you every time it rains. "There is a famous allusion in this couplet:' Dongpo retired from the DPRK for one day and ate. Walking, Gu said to his servant, "What is the way of your generation?" A maid suddenly said,' It's all articles', but Poe disagreed. Another person said,' full of knowledge'. Porter didn't expect when it would be. When he reached the clouds, he said, "The belly of a bachelor is out of date. Poe burst out laughing. Chaoyun Tomb is located on the isolated mountain of Huizhou West Lake Scenic Area in Huizhou City, Guangdong Province, next to Su Dongpo Memorial Hall, and now it has become a scenic spot.
