In the first year of Jiayou (1056), Su Shi left Sichuan for Beijing for the first time to take the imperial examination. Su Xun took Su Shi, 2 1 year-old, and Su Zhe, 0/9/year-old, down the river from the remote area of Xishu, and left for the east. He took the exam in Beijing in the second year of Jiayou (1057).
In the sixth year of Jiayou (106 1 year), Su Shi was admitted to Chinese secondary school and awarded Dali evaluation. In the third year of Zhiping (1066), Su Xun died of illness, and Su Shi and Su Zhe returned to their hometowns with coffins, and they were in mourning for three years.
In the fourth year of Xining (107 1), Su Shi wrote about the disadvantages of the new law. Wang Anshi was very angry, so he asked Xie Jing to tell Su Shi's fault in front of Zongshen. Su Shi then sought a job in Beijing and was sentenced to general punishment in Hangzhou.
In the autumn of the seventh year of Xining (1074), Su Shi was transferred to Mizhou (Zhucheng, Shandong Province). From April in the tenth year of Xining (1077) to March in the second year of Yuanfeng (1079), he served as the magistrate of Xuzhou.
In the second year of Yuanfeng (1079), 43-year-old Su Shi was transferred to Huzhou. After taking office, he wrote a letter to Zongshen, "Huzhou thanks the watch", which is a routine.
But Su Shi is a poet, and his words are often emotional. Even if you write in red-headed documents, you can't forget to add a little personal color, saying that you are "stupid and untimely, and it is difficult to catch up with new progress" and "old people can make trouble and support the king".
These words were used by the new party, saying that he "fooled North Korea, was conceited", "blamed others", "accused and abused others", "had ulterior motives", satirized the government and was rude and disloyal to the emperor. Such a big crime can be said to deserve to die.
They picked out sentences that they thought implied sarcasm from a large number of Su Shi's poems, and for a time there was an anti-Soviet voice in the court.
Su Shi was demoted to Ying Yong's assistant in Huangzhou (now Huanggang, Hubei). In the seventh year of Yuanfeng (1084), Su Shi left Huangzhou and was stationed in Ruzhou. Due to the long distance and tiring journey, Su Shi's children died unfortunately.
In the eighth year of Yuanfeng (1085), Song Zhezong ascended the throne, and the empress dowager, in the name of the young philosopher, listened to politics in the recent dynasty. Sima Guang was reactivated and the new party headed by Wang Anshi was suppressed.
Yuan You four years (1089), Su Shi holds a bachelor's degree in Longtuge, knowing Hangzhou. Because the West Lake has not been dredged for a long time, it has been silted up for more than half. "Pinghu Lake in Taiping Lake has long been overgrown with weeds, which has seriously affected agricultural production."
In the second year of Su Shi's arrival in Hangzhou, he dredged the West Lake, mobilized more than 200,000 migrant workers, expelled farmland, restored the old scenery, and erected three towers (now reflecting the moon in three ponds) in the deepest part of the lake as a symbol.
He collected the dredged silt and built a long dike running through the West Lake, which was connected by six bridges for pedestrians. Later referred to as "Su Gong Di" or "Su Causeway".
After Song Huizong acceded to the throne, Su Shi was successively transferred to Lianzhou Resettlement, Yong Ying Assistant and Yongzhou Resettlement. In April of Fu Yuan's third year (1 100), the imperial court granted amnesty, and Su Shi was reinstated as an official of the imperial court.
Su Shi died in Changzhou (now Jiangsu) on July 28th (11August 24th) in Jianzhong, at the age of 65.

Su Shi's representative introduction;
First, "Niannujiao Chibi Nostalgia"
One of the representative works of Su Shi's bold and unconstrained ci. This word pays tribute to the ancient battlefield by describing the magnificent scenery on the river on a moonlit night, cherishes the talents, tolerance and achievements of romantic figures, and expresses the grief and indignation of the author's failure in talent, achievement and career.
At the same time, it shows the author's broad-minded concern for history and life. The whole poem is lyrical in ancient times, vigorous and desolate, magnificent, vigorous in brushwork and broad in realm. It integrates scenery writing, history chanting and lyric, giving people an artistic power that shocks the soul. It was once known as "the swan song of ancient and modern times".

The surging river flows eastward, and those heroes of the past are gone forever. To the west of the old base, there is a rich collection of people: Chibi, Zhou Lang, where the three countries stand. The steep rock wall, like thunder waves lapping against the river bank, waves like rolling up thousands of snow. The majestic rivers and mountains are picturesque, and many heroes emerge at once.
Looking back on Zhou Yu's spring breeze era, young and beautiful Joe just married him, and he was full of heroic spirit. Feather fan nylon scarf, talking and laughing, all gone. I am wandering in the battlefield today. I feel a feeling heart and give birth to white hair prematurely. Life is like a dream, sprinkle a glass of wine to pay tribute to the bright moon on the river.

I am wandering in the battlefield today. I feel a feeling heart and give birth to white hair prematurely. Things are like a dream, a bottle or a month.
Second, "When will there be a bright moon?"
Su Shi made it on 1076 (the ninth year of Xining in Song Shenzong) Mid-Autumn Festival in Mizhou (now Zhucheng in Shandong).
The word is based on the feeling that the moon rises and my brother Su Zhe hasn't seen it for seven years. It imagines and thinks around the Mid-Autumn Moon, and integrates the feelings of joys and sorrows in the world into the philosophical pursuit of the universe.
It reflects the author's complex and contradictory thoughts and feelings, and also shows the author's optimistic spirit of loving life and being positive.

When did the moon begin to appear? I take my glass from a distance. I don't know about palaces in the sky. What year is tonight? I'm willing to ride the wind to the sky, I'm afraid I can't stand the cold for nine days in a pavilion of fine jade. Dance and enjoy the shadow of the moon, which is in the world.
The moon turned into a scarlet pavilion, hanging low on the carved window, shining on the sleepy self. The moon should not have any resentment against people. Why is it round when people are gone? People are sad and happy, and they are separated and reunited. The moon will darken or shine, and it will become round or round. Nothing is perfect, even in the past. We hope to live a long life for each other to share the beauty of this beautiful moonlight, even though we are separated from Wan Li.

When did the bright moon begin to appear? I raised my glass and asked the distant sky. The palace in the sky, I don't know what year and month tonight.
I want to ride the breeze back to the sky, but I'm afraid that the buildings built by Meiyu can't stand the cold of nine days. Dancing and enjoying the clear shadows under the moon, is it like being on the earth?
The moon revolves around the scarlet pavilion, hanging low on the carved window, shining on the sleepy self. Mingyue shouldn't have any regrets about people, should she? Why is it round when people are gone?
People have joys and sorrows, and the moon changes from sunny to sunny. This kind of thing has been difficult to be comprehensive since ancient times. I only hope that all relatives in this world can be safe and healthy, and even if they are thousands of miles apart, they can share this beautiful moonlight.
