Chapter 446 Su Dongpo (Lu Yi Version) 11
In 1075, Wang Anshi was reinstated as prime minister and Lü Huiqing was demoted. The land-based labor service law and the first-earnings law were abolished.
In this year, Su Shi eliminated banditry in Mizhou, developed water conservancy, and established a local school.
The Khitans stationed troops on the border to cause trouble and were about to invade. Emperor Shenzong sent Han Wei to the Khitans to cede territory and seek peace.
When Su Shi found out, he was very angry, but he had no other choice. He could only hunt with General Liu, using Mizhou as the border and tigers and wolves as barbarians. It was also during this time that he wrote the poem "An old man is still full of youthful madness".
Lü Huiqing handed over the letter Wang Anshi had written to him to Emperor Shenzong. Wang Anshi told Lü Huiqing in the letter that the matter should not be made known to the emperor.
After seeing this, Emperor Shenzong began to distrust Wang Anshi, and Wang Anshi asked to be relieved of his post as prime minister.
In 1076, Wang Anshi's son Wang Pang died. Wang Anshi was disheartened and resigned from the position of prime minister again. Shenzong appointed Wang Gui as prime minister.
It is the Mid-Autumn Festival again. Every festival makes me miss my family. I haven't seen Dai'er for several years. Su's father and mother must have aged a lot. Su Shi and Su Zhe are no longer around.
Su Shi was also inspired by this. While dancing with a sword, he composed a poem, "When will the bright moon appear? I raise my cup to ask the blue sky..."
After the three-year term in Mizhou was over, Emperor Shenzong appointed Su Shi as the governor of Xuzhou. To take up his post in Xuzhou, he had to pass through Bianjing. They could finally go home and have a look.
On the way, they also met Su Che, who was transferred from Jinan to Bianliang and was waiting for them to travel together.
When they arrived in Bian Jing, the people guarding the city gate, knowing that it was Su Shi, would not let them enter the inner city.
Xuzhou is a strategic location that all military strategists in the world must fight for. Wang Gui and others saw that Emperor Shenzong intended to use Su Shi. They were afraid that after the emperor summoned Su Shi, he would keep him in an important position in the court. That's why what happened just now happened.
Seeing this situation, Su Shi wanted to take them to enter from the north gate through a detour. While taking the detour, Chang Ran instructed: "If the gatekeepers ask again, you will answer. My husband, you don't want to miss your father, mother, and Dai'er, right?"
After hearing Chang Ran's words, Su Shi also agreed. After all, he hadn't seen his father and mother for six years. They were much older and he really missed them.
This time, when the people guarding the city gate asked questions, Su Che answered, and the few people were able to enter the city smoothly.
Finally returning to the Su Mansion, everyone was very excited to see their family members whom they hadn't seen for a long time.
Su's father and mother have indeed aged a lot. Su's father no longer serves in the court. After meeting them this time, he plans to return to his hometown in Meizhou.
By the time the child grew up, he had long forgotten the couple even though there was a portrait.
Now that he had returned to Bianjing, Su Shi also went to see the emperor, not giving Wang Gui the opportunity to slander him in front of Emperor Shenzong.
Changran and Su Shi will bring Dai'er with them to take up their new posts this time. If they don't bring them with them, I really won't recognize them anymore.
Maier was responsible for escorting Su's father and mother and their entourage back to Meizhou and to take part in the imperial examination.
Su Shi also wanted to go to Luoyang to visit Fan Zhen, so they went together for a while.
After meeting Fan Zhen, he acted as a matchmaker for Maier and his granddaughter. In recent years, the court has been dominated by small and medium-sized people, and Maier has not taken the imperial examination, which has delayed him.
Following them as a couple was also unsettling. Now the marriage is finally settled.
In the summer of 1077, the Yellow River broke through its banks in Chanzhou, flowed into Juye and into the Huaihe River and Sishui, causing severe damage to the downstream Xuzhou area.
Xuzhou City has been surrounded by water, Su Shi is leading people to inspect and reinforce the city wall and make arrangements. Chang Ran also ordered the puppets in the dark to help.
