When Su Dongpo was an official in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, he once traveled incognito, went to the state capital and went to a relative's house for his birthday. None of the guests present knew that he was a great writer Su Dongpo. In the banquet room, someone suggested, "Let's have some wine. What do you think? "

At that time, the magistrate Yang Gui and the county magistrate Wang Bi were also present, both of whom were corrupt officials. Wang Bi said, "I'll go first. A friend has the same frost and snow for two months. I don't know which month it will be frosty, and I don't know which month it will snow. "

Another official then recited: "A mountain is two words, coal and charcoal of the same color;" I don't know which mountain produces coal, and I don't know which mountain produces carbon. " Yang Gui also shook his head and said, "One word has two mouths, and the same color is tea and wine.

I don't know where to drink tea, and I don't know where to drink. At this moment, Su Dongpo chanted, "One word is two-one. Turtles and turtles of the same color; I don't know which is the tortoise, and I don't know which is the tortoise. "

As soon as Su Dongpo finished reading, Wang Bi woke up: Well, "turtle" and "expensive", "turtle" and "pen" are homophonic. Isn't this an insult to Yang Gui and my Wang Bi? He immediately pointed to Su Dongpo and shouted, "fanatic, how dare you curse!"

Su Dongpo said, "If you want to swear, I think what you just recited is swearing. Frost and snow can't cover the sun, coal will burn to ashes, and tea and wine will turn into urine. They are all things that will die soon. Isn't this a curse?

The turtle is a symbol of longevity. I ordered my birthday. "Wang pen was speechless. Yang Guifei realized that the guest had a good reason. After asking about Su Dongpo's identity, they secretly complained.

2. The examiner asks questions

When Su Dongpo was demoted to Huangzhou as Ying Yong's assistant, he gave lectures in the local area and trained many famous students. The imperial court sent an examiner named the Governor to give lectures and check the movement. As soon as the examiner arrived, he wanted to suppress Dongpo's reputation.

One morning, he said to Dongpo, "Bachelor Su is famous all over the world. I think Gaozu is also full of articles. I want to see something. Invite some people to interview. " Su Dongpo immediately picked ten students to see the examiner.

The examiner pointed to the pagoda outside and made the first connection: the pagoda was pointed and seven floors in all directions. As a result, the students couldn't tell each other apart and bowed their heads and waved their hands in shame. The examiner said in a sarcastic tone, "Sue, this ..."

Su Dongpo said unhurriedly: "They have come out, and the bottom line is: when the jade hand shakes, the five fingers are three long and two short." The examiner was speechless and had to laugh at himself and say, "Sue really deserves her reputation. I admire him! "

3. Li Anqi Xiaomei

Su Shi, who hasn't met her friends for a long time, invited Huang Tingjian to visit her home. When my sister saw my brother go out to meet him personally, she made a joke and said, "My brother is invited outside for two months.". Su Shi knew that Xiaomei was joking with herself when the bimonthly magazine was combined with the word "friend".

Immediately came a sentence: little sister caught half the wind at the window. "Half" versus "double" and "wind" versus "moon". Interestingly, the traditional "wind" in China means that half wind means "lice", which means that little sister is catching lice by the window. Little sister turned away angrily.

4. Move the capital.

With Ouyang Xiu's repeated praise, Su Shi became famous for a while. Every time he publishes a new book, it will spread all over Beijing immediately. Just as the father and son became famous in Beijing and were about to show their talents, the bad news of Su Shi's mother's death suddenly came.

The two brothers went home with their father to attend the funeral. Jia You returned to Beijing at the end of his funeral in October of the fourth year. In the sixth year of Jiayou (106 1), Su Shi took the examination of secondary education in China, also known as the "three-year Beijing Examination". Entering the third class is "the first in a hundred years", and Dali awarded Fengxiang House the judge.

Four years later, he also went to the court to smell the drums. In the second year of Zhiping, Su Xun died of illness, and Su Shi and Su Zhe returned to their hometowns with coffins, and they kept their filial piety for three years. Three years later, Su Shi returned to North Korea, and Wang Anshi's political reform, which shook the ruling and opposition parties, began. Many teachers and friends of Su Shi.

Including Ouyang Xiu, a teacher who admired him at the beginning. He was forced to leave Beijing because he opposed the new law and disagreed with the new prime minister Wang Anshi. The old rain in the ruling and opposition parties faded away, and what Su Shi saw in his eyes was no longer the "peaceful and prosperous times" he saw at the age of twenty.

5. curse the monk

One day, when Su Dongpo visited a temple, he was disgusted to hear that the monk in charge of the temple had misbehaved. However, the master was respectful to the famous Su Dongpo and asked Su Dongpo for words many times. Su Dongpo has a pen in his hand.

The book of disease: the fragrance of the sunset removes all the dust; The fire is cold, come and tie up the Italian horse. The abbot is in the sky and hangs couplets on high places. Many people laughed when they saw it. It turns out that this couplet has two puzzles, and the answer is: bald donkey.
