Chapter 964 Lao Su is released
That night, an unidentified person came to each of the East Pavilion of the three courtyards of Yushitai, the South Veranda of Zhiza, and the North Veranda.
According to the officials, this is the next batch of prisoners awaiting review.
Su Song was packing his luggage in the East Pavilion of the Third Courtyard.
Chen Shiru's case has been pronounced. Chen Shiru, his wife Li, Gao, Zhang and other nineteen slaves were sentenced to death. The other seven slaves were exempted from death. Zhangji, Hunan, Guangnan, Jingxi and other roads were compiled and managed.
The original survey officials of Kaifeng Prefecture were punished for committing crimes.
Lycia and Yan Jing were also demoted due to judicial disputes.
During the trial of the case, the judge of Dali Temple used excuses to expand the scope of the attack. The minister of Dali Temple was fined a copper for poor supervision.
Lu Gong wrote that he was not guilty and was reinstated as deputy privy envoy.
Su Song, not guilty, will be given leave to recuperate.
Su Song said to the new official: "It seems that I am here from outside. The Yushitai summoned me in a hurry, so I didn't bring anything with me."
The little official had a pale face and no beard. He only cupped his hands politely and said nothing.
Su Song smiled, how often do we see such arrogant petty officials? He said warmly: "But it doesn't matter, I'm going out now. In addition to the books and articles, I have to take away the rest of the beds, quilts, pens, ink and papers." I will leave all the inkstones for your use. Living together in Wutai is considered fate."
The official raised his hand again to express his gratitude.
Su Song ignored him and said to the officer surnamed Gu: "Old Gu, here are some poems I wrote in Wutai. If it is convenient, you can give them to him. Now I am no longer a sinner. Violation of discipline.”
Lao Gu hurriedly came up to take it: "Congratulations, bachelor, I finally cleared your name. After you get out, the official family will definitely still need it."
Su Song shook his head and asked with a smile: "What is the guy in the north veranda doing?"
Lao Gu said: "Xiao Su is a bachelor? I heard from Xiao Lizi that he has been writing memorials all day long, but it has nothing to do with the case. It is said that it is an important matter for the court and must be put in a secret box and sent to the officials for their purposes."
Su Song laughed: "He has really found a pure place."
Lao Gu said: "I will send the poems to Master Su right now. I will keep the bachelor busy tonight, and I will see you off tomorrow."
Su Song handed over to Lao Gu: "Thank you for taking care of me these days, brother."
Lao Gu waved his hand: "Whatever the bachelor said, it is appropriate."
The junior official was sitting on the simple bed on the side, watching all this.
…
Zhizanan veranda, Su Shi had eaten the preserved meat pot and was pacing back and forth in the room, thinking over and over again.
The junior official who had just been escorted in was already lying with his head on the small suitcase and his clothes facing the wall.
Liang Cheng walked in with a few pieces of paper: "Congratulations, Master, Mr. Su from the East Pavilion has been cleared of his grievances. The matter of accepting the invitation is completely false. Several villains in Dali Temple framed Zhongliang and were deprived of their posts by the officials. They were sent to Jinghu is in charge."
Su Shi was overjoyed: "Really? I said that with Uncle Zong's reputation for virtue, he would never accept the invitation."
Liang Cheng handed over several poems: "These are the poems written by the old scholar Su in Wutai, and they are written for you."
Su Shi took it and read it. There were many poems.
The first one reads:
In his early years, he spent time in Zhejiang Province, where many new poems were spread everywhere.
The wonderful sentence about the golden snake upstairs is a long story in the middle of the book.
The years of divorce flow like water, and the accumulation of depression is like smoke.
Today, where Baitai faces each other, the sound can't be heard from across the wall.
This poem recalls their relationship in Hangzhou. I said that when Su Shi was the general magistrate of Hangzhou, I admired his poems very much.
"The wonderful line about the golden snake upstairs" refers to Su Shi's poem about watching the rain in Wanghu Tower. There is a line like "the lightning flashes in and catches the purple golden snake."
, there is a saying: "It is like a pipa string, which is often disturbed by waist drums."
Later, it was said that the years of separation passed by like running water, but the suppressed feelings between the two were like gloomy smoke.
Baitai is another name for Yushitai. Now the two are being tried on Yushitai. Although they are separated by a wall, they cannot speak to each other.
The second song is:
The origin of the word is far away from the Shu River, and the charm of Shun Temple Ball.
He planned to return to the Imperial Palace, and the article was circulated to Dai Fangzhou.
Before returning to Lun Pavilion, it was said that he was stagnant, and he changed the copper talisman and the government was excellent.
It is a pity that King Zhong writes in cursive style, but follows other officials to write in rough strokes.
One or two sentences say that Su Shi's poetry has a long history like the mighty Shu River, and its charm has inherited the golden and jade sound of Shao music created by Shun Temple.
The three or four sentences say that Su Shi's article alarmed the central government. "Zhongyufu" is another name for the province in the palace, which means that Su Shi's high school system at that time should enter the province in the palace. "Daifangzhou" refers to North Korea, which means
Because of Su Shi's wonderful article, he was brought back to China by the Goryeo envoy, and he has a large number of fans even overseas.
The five or six sentences say that Su Shi was politically excluded because of his opposition to Wang Anshi's reform. He served as the general magistrate of Hangzhou, the magistrate of Mizhou, and the prefect of Xuzhou. He never returned to the central government to serve. Public opinion sympathized with Su Shi's stay.
During his tenure of constantly changing bronze talismans, Su Shi achieved impressive political achievements.
The seven or eight sentences say that it is a pity that such a wonderful pen, which can be written in cursive calligraphy by Zhong Yao and Wang Xizhi, is now writing Mao Tou's confession according to the order of the prison.
The third song is:
The flying words are beginning to rise and the fine writings are beginning to appear, and the interactions in the court are more diverse.
Since the outline is very dense, how can it be divided by arrows in vain?
The censors are all called Su Elders, and the disciples in the palace are half-aware of the old generals.
But he took pity on Wu Xingshou, a bihu, and couldn't bear to hear the criticism all night long.
One or two sentences say that when the poetry case first started, there were just a few people making chatter, delving into the details of the text, and then impeaching each other, and the matter became more and more troubled.
The three or four sentences are saying that the rules used by the censors are more dense than autumn bushes. If you pick the wrong end of the arrow, you have to pick out an arrow that is not straight from a bundle.
The fifth or sixth sentence says that even some censors, no matter how honest they are, have to admit that Su Shi has always been an elder; most of the officials in Wutai have also admired Su Shi for a long time.
The last two sentences expressed emotion about a dignified governor, but he was insulted by the censors in Wutai all night long, and even he, a person who was being criticized, couldn't bear to listen.
The fourth song is:
We are descendants of the same family, but I have many talents and I know little about them.
The fallacy is that the father-in-law travels because he is destined to be an old acquaintance, his secretary.
The articles are highly sincere and hard to beat, and the tone and tone of the article are long-lasting and diligent.
His poems can be countless, and the holy dynasty will eventually praise Hua Xun.
"Ziqing" is the character of Su Wu, and one or two sentences mean that everyone is the descendant of Su Wu, but Su Shi is knowledgeable and talented, but he himself is ignorant.
The third or fourth sentence is that although Meng Su Shi is called the elder, the old friendship between the two was forged when they worked together as secretaries and supervisors.
The five or six sentences say that Su Shi's literary talent is superb and invincible in the world; the two of them admire each other, and the longer they get along, the more frequent they become.
The seven or eight sentences are a tactful advice to Su Shi not to be confused by the nightmare of poetry. From now on, he should sing more praises for the court.
The last one is:
In recent years, the source is slightly the same, and it has returned to my father and I over the past ten years.
After the neighbors of Hangzhou and Wu were enfeoffed and relegated to exile, Huhao succeeded him in Wei Zhong.
Poets often complain about difficulties, and Confucian scholars often talk about poverty.
I have to go back to Jianghai one day, and I will visit Shandong on a regular basis.
One or two sentences say that in the entire ten years from Wang Anshi's reform in the second year of Xining to the current second year of Yuanfeng, the political experiences of the two people were basically the same, and they were both in the "interlude" period of their official careers.
The three or four sentences say that after the two were demoted, they served in Hangzhou and Wuzhou, which are adjacent to the border; when they served in Huzhou and Haozhou, they were unjustly imprisoned one after another.
The fifth or sixth sentence says that Su Shi was a poet who suffered many disasters because of his political opinions. He was also a Confucian and had a similarly bleak future, so he kept silent about it for a long time.
The seven or eight sentences are saying that if he can leave his official position and return to seclusion in the future, he hopes that Su Shi will come to Dantu's Garlic Mountain to visit him, and then the two of them can have a drink and share their feelings.
Su Shi read several poems one by one, and the corners of his eyes became moist: "Su Shi is always careless in his words and deeds, which makes the elders anxious."
He folded the poem and handed it back to Liang Cheng: "You can keep it for now and return it to me when you are released from prison. If you never see the light of day again, return it to Uncle Zong and say that Su Shi thanked him for his concern."
Liang Cheng put the letter away, said a few words of relief, brought Su Shi foot-washing water, and persuaded Su Shi to rest early before leaving.
Su Shi lay on the bed and turned around for a while, then stood up and sat up: "There are so many important things in the court that need them to take care of. After all, we can't drag down the elders because of Su Shi."
Finally, I made up my mind, lit the oil lamp, put on my clothes and bent over my desk, and started reading like crazy.
This writing lasted two hours. It was not until the bright moon outside the south verandah window was about to set in the west that Su Shi threw away the pen in his hand: "Hahaha... it's finally over!"
He turned over and lay down on the bed again. After a while, he started breathing heavily.
Chapter completed!
