Su Shi was recalled to the capital by the new emperor, and Huang Tingjian was also summoned to the capital. So the two met for the first time, but Later, Su Shi opposed the abolition of the new law.

For five years, Finally, I resigned and stopped working.

Later, Huang Tingjian revived the Literary Prison because of his revision of "Shen Zong Shi Lu", and Huang Tingjian was demoted to Bozhou. From then on, Huang Tingjian rarely wrote poems.

Su Shi is a literary master and a representative of Song Dynasty literature. Su Shi insisted on following the spirit of Confucianism in his political stance. In life, Su Shi also adopted a heroic and broad-minded temperament, which was very detached from nature.

His great influence and heroic spirit gave his poems the power to swallow up mountains and rivers, and he was also loved by later passionate literati.

Su Shi’s thoughts are not that of softness, so Su Shi made reforms to the previous poems that were mainly soft and gentle. He injected masculinity into the poems, which was also a reform of poetry. , it is precisely because of this reform that a new era has been created.

It is precisely because of the influence of thoughts on people at that time that it also created a unique personal style and charm for Su Shi. Su Shi's thoughts and poetry were integrated. Due to the bumps in his official career at that time, Su Shi's thoughts changed from The original tradition gradually transformed into open-mindedness and heroism, so both his poetry and prose reflected this unique style.

Su Shi’s thoughts have changed due to his character and the various things he faced in life. Without the frustration in his official career, maybe Su Shi would not have such profound attainments as he does now. , Thought is a hierarchical thing, and at the same time, thought also controls a person.

The song "Going to the East of the River to Wander and Plunder All" made an impact on the poetry world of the Song Dynasty. It changed the past extravagant style and the bold and unrestrained faction entered the poetry world of the Northern Song Dynasty. Su Shi also became a representative of the bold and unconstrained faction. Bold and unrestrained means that the language in the poems is agitated, expressing heroic feelings and ambitions, quite like throwing one's head and spilling blood.

This is the main style characteristic of Su Shi's later works, which is different from the similar gracefulness in the early period. Through poetry, he describes his ambitions and ambitions. "Red Cliff Huaigu" begins with a description of the mighty and majestic state of the river, which stretches for thousands of miles.

In such a grand realm, the author's mind is also transformed into this grand world. In this world of nothingness and drifting, I lament the shortness of my life, and transform the frustrations of life into this world, as if all difficulties are not so serious.

The sounds of people and animals could be distinguished one by one. What he said was very detailed, and I will not excerpt it in detail here. . I asked a local old man and he said: "A long time ago, the same scenery would appear when passing by this place, so the locals called it Haishi."

This is the "sea market" created by Su Shi. To illustrate the strange scenes faced by ancient people through a legend, this was what Su Shi did after he was demoted. He wrote about distant scenery, described his inner wishes, and used natural landscapes to elicit some principles about life.

The author has this kind of feeling, which is triggered when something happens. "Dongpo Zhilin" said: "Thirty miles northwest of Huangzhou is a sand lake, also called Luoshidian. I bought a field in the middle of it because I went to Xiangtian." When it rained on the way, I wrote such a poem to see it in simplicity. With profound meaning, it is a word that makes waves in ordinary situations.

"When will the rain at night listen to the desolation?" is Su Shi's famous saying. The sky has cleared up, and when I look back and think about how I have survived the ups and downs in my life, I naturally have a feeling in my heart.
