Su Shi started studying at the age of seven, and entered elementary school at the age of eight. He studied in Tianqing Guanbei College. He was taught by Taoist Zhang Yijian. Among nearly a hundred students, the teacher only praised him and Chen Taichu as the smartest students in the school.

But everyone has different encounters in life. This Chen Taichu later became a Taoist priest, obtained the Tao, and his body was dissected in Meishan.

In May of the seventh year of Qingli, his grandfather Su Xu passed away. It was not until August that Su Xun, who was in Qianzhou, returned to Mei County for the funeral.

From then on, the two brothers Shi and Zhe formally studied with their father.

Su Xun gave the two sons scientific names.The elder brother's name is Shi, the word Zizhan, the word Hezhong, and he was thirteen at the time; the younger brother's name is Zhe, the word Ziyou, the word Tongshu, and he was nine years old at the time.Xunfu wrote "Ming Erzi Shuo" to encourage him:

The spokes, covers and props all have jobs in the car, but Shi is alone as if he is doing nothing.Although, when I went to Shi, I didn't see it as a finished car.Shihu, I am afraid that you will not show it on the outside.

All the carts in the world have ruts, and when it comes to the merits of a cart, there are no ruts.Of course, it's not as good as suffering from the death of a car servant and a horse.Those who are in the same position are good at being between misfortune and fortune.So, I know it's free.

In the first year of Zhihe, Su Shi was 19 years old. He married the daughter of Wang Fang, a tribute Jinshi in Qingshen County, a neighboring town of Meishan. Mrs. Wang was named Fu, and she was sixteen at the time.

In the first year of Jiayou, in late spring in March, Sansu and his son set off to take the exam.

In August, the Su Shi brothers tried at Jingde Temple in Kaifeng.

When the list was published, Yuan Zhu (Gongji) of Siming was at the top of the list, Su Shi, who had just made his mark, took the second place in the exam, and Su Zhe was also on the list, and they all won the exam.

The provincial examination was divided into papers according to the room. Mei Yaochen got Su Shi's "On Punishment, Reward and Loyalty", and immediately recommended it to the examiner.

Ouyang Xiu was surprised and delighted when he read it, and wanted to place him at the top of the list, but because the examiner read the vaguely written paper, which was suspected to be the work of Zeng Gong, a disciple, so he was put at the second place in order to avoid other people's gossip.

The hustle and bustle before and after the exam was vigorous, and in August of that year, the rough report was calmed down, but an unfortunate bad news, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, suddenly came from the capital from Meishan.

Mrs. Cheng Tai, the mother of brothers Shi and Zhe, died in her hometown on the eighth day of April this year.

In September of the fourth year of Jiayou, when his wife died, Lao Su decided to leave Shu with his family.

On February [-]th of the fifth year of Jiayou, the Su family and his party arrived in Bianjing and rented a house in Xigang to live in, preparing to take the system examination.

That year, Wang Anshi was recruited from the Jiangdong Criminal Prison to be the judge of the third division.

In this course, three of the four were admitted.

As a result of the assessment, Su Shi won the third place.

The academic system is divided into five grades. After the Song Dynasty had its own system test, the first, second and second grades were all fake, and no one had ever passed it. Generally, the fourth grade was selected.

Before Su Shi, only one person had entered the third class.

Therefore, Su Shi is the second person who has received this highest rating since the establishment of the department!

On May 28 of the second year of Zhiping, Su Shi suddenly suffered from the loss of his wife.

Ten years later, on the [-]th day of the first lunar month in the eighth year of Xining, he dreamed of Wang Fu in Mizhou and wrote:

Ten years of life and death are boundless.Not thinking about it, unforgettable.Thousands of miles of lonely grave, there is nowhere to say desolate.Even if they meet, they should not know it, dusty face, temples like frost.

You Meng suddenly returned home in the night.Xiaoxuan window is dressing up.There is nothing but tears.Expected to be broken every year, bright moon night, short Matsuoka.

Eleven months after his wife's death, in April of Zhiping's third year, my father died suddenly and died on the 25th at the age of 58.

In June, the brothers supported the coffin of their father and the coffin of Mrs. Wang Fu, and two coffins in one boat, entered the Huai River from Bian, and went up the river.

The mourning was held in July of the first year of Xining.

In October, Su Shi continued to marry Mrs. Wang Fu's cousin Wang Runzhi as his successor.

Su Shi arrived in Hangzhou on November 28th in the fourth year of Xining. Three days after his arrival, he went to Gushan of West Lake to visit two monks, Huiqin and Huisi.

Here, Su Shi wrote:

The sky is like snow, the clouds are full of the lake, and the towers are out of the mountains.

The water is clear and the stones produce fish that can be counted, and the forest is deep without any birds calling each other.

In the fifth year of Xining, in the late spring of March, Su Shi and others from Shen Taishou went to Jixiang Temple to enjoy flowers and buy wine for fun.

The old hairpin flowers are not ashamed, and the flowers should be ashamed of the elderly.

Drunk return to help passers-by should laugh, ten miles of bead curtains are half hooked.

On June 27, Su Shi went to the Wanghu Tower in front of Zhaoqing Temple outside the Qiantang Gate to drink alone. It rained suddenly, and he watched the rain scene on the lake to his heart's content. He wrote five quatrains drunk, the first of which was:

Black clouds turned over the ink without covering the mountains, and white rain jumped into the boat.

The wind came and blew away suddenly, and the water below Wanghu Tower was like the sky.

One day, on the drinking lake, it was sunny at first and then rainy. I wrote two poems, one of which said:

The water is bright and sunny, and the mountains are empty and rainy.

If you want to compare the West Lake with Xizi, light makeup and thick makeup are always suitable.

As soon as this article comes out, it can be said that "there is no one before and no one to come" among the West Lake poems.

In the seventh year of Xining, 12-year-old Chaoyun entered the Su family.

On the third day of December in the seventh year of Xining, Su Shi went to Mizhou to take office.

One day, he was hunting with his friends and wrote a poem.

The old man chatted about being a teenager, holding the yellow on the left, Qingcang on the right, the brocade hat, the sable fur, and the thousand riders rolling Hiraoka.

At that time, Xixia invaded the Song Dynasty.

What Su Shi wanted to express was that I was hunting, so I wanted to lead troops to a decisive battle with Xixia!

Su Shi was 40 years old when he first arrived in Mizhou.

One day, he dreamed of his dead wife.

Wrote down the mourning poem "Jiangchengzi, Yimao's dream on the [-]th day of the first lunar month" which has been passed down through the ages.

This poem is not crafted with any gorgeous rhetoric, but it expresses my longing for my wife.

Because he has been an official in various places for a long time.

Su Shi has not seen his younger brother for a long time.

On the Mid-Autumn Festival of a certain year, he wrote "Water Tune Getou. When Will the Bright Moon Come?".

As soon as this poem came out, all the Mid-Autumn Festival poems were abolished!

Su Shi's wandering official career continued.
