Su Dongpo does practical things for the people;
When Su Dongpo was an official in Hangzhou, in order to develop the West Lake, he asked craftsmen to dig a lake embankment on the red hill next to the Korean Temple in Yin Hui. This move was strongly opposed by the monks of the temple, on the grounds that Chishan is a treasure trove of geomantic omen, and excavation would cause disaster, so the project was forced to be shelved. Su Dongpo rushed to the construction site when he heard the news, but the monk refused to give in, saying that if Feng Shui was destroyed, who would be responsible for the disaster?
Su Dongpo told the monk in awe: It's because of me. If there is a disaster in heaven, you will come and go, but building a dike must not be delayed. "I will dedicate my life to the ancient temple and stay in the West Lake." It is Su Dongpo's responsibility to resist the pressure and benefit the people, so that the Su Causeway in Hangzhou can be finally built and benefit the people.
Doing practical things for the people, Su Dongpo is not afraid of offending monks, not to mention offending dignitaries. When Cai Jing, the prime minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, was appointed as the magistrate of Yangzhou, he tried his best to whitewash the peace and create a "prosperous" scene. He spent more than 100,000 branches to hold a huge "flower show", while officials and evil officials took the opportunity to extort and search, making the people seriously ill. Later, Su Dongpo went to Yangzhou as a magistrate, "asking the people about their sufferings is the first step, and then stop." Once the unfavorable factors of accumulation are eliminated, "everyone is encouraged and happy."
Su Dongpo was originally an elegant scholar who loved flowers. Now he has become an official, and he will no longer abolish officials for personal gain and stop bad politics to suit the people's hearts. At that time, Cai Jing's "rising momentum" was in full swing, and Su Dongpo could have been "a new official with three fires" without offending Cai Jing. But he didn't do this, but for the benefit of the people. He is not afraid of being retaliated or losing his job.
