苏辙 / Su Zhe

Su Zhe is [[SuShi|苏轼]]’s younger brother in 105.苏东坡：一腔豪迈之气，一肚皮不合时宜. The episode introduces him as one of the “三苏”, a same-generation exam success with Su Shi, and the lifelong brother whose bond gives Su Shi’s public career an intimate emotional counterweight.

The source repeatedly uses Su Zhe to keep Su Shi from becoming a solitary genius myth. The brothers enter office together, mourn family together, oppose problems in the [[WangAnshiReforms|王安石变法]] together, and face danger around the [[WutaiPoetryCase|乌台诗案]]. Their relationship supports the episode’s claim that Su Shi’s “此心安处” depends on family, friendship, and conscience, not private detachment alone.
