Interesting stories about ancient calligraphy
Changji's creation
According to legend, Cang Xie was a man with four eyes. He is an official under the Yellow Emperor. Officials at that time were not imposing, just like ordinary people, but with different division of labor. The Yellow Emperor assigned him to be in charge of the number of livestock in the fence and the number of food on the chariot. Cang Xie is a smart man. He does everything with all his heart. He soon becomes familiar with the animals and food he is in charge of, and has a good mind, so he seldom makes mistakes. But slowly, the storage of livestock and food is also gradually increasing and changing, and my head alone can't remember it. At that time, there were no words, let alone paper and pens. What shall we do? Cang Xie was puzzled.
Cang Xie tried to tie a knot on the rope all day and all night. He used ropes of different colors to represent different animals and foods, and knots tied with ropes represented each number. But over time, it won't work. It is easy to tie a knot on the rope for this increased number, but it is troublesome to untie a knot on the rope when reducing the number. Cang Xie thought of winding the rope and hanging all kinds of shells in the circle, instead of what he was in charge of. If it increases, a shell is added; if it decreases, a shell is removed. This method works best and has been used continuously for several years.
Seeing that Cang Xie was so capable, the Yellow Emperor put him in charge of more and more things, such as the number of sacrifices each year, the distribution of hunting and the increase or decrease of tribal population, all of which were called Cang Xie. Cang Xie has made another mistake, which is no longer a matter of hanging a shell with a rope. How can I not make mistakes?
On this day, he took part in collective hunting and came to a fork in the road. Several old people were arguing about which way to take. An old man insisted on going east, saying there were antelopes; An old man wants to go north, saying that he can catch up with the deer not far ahead; An old man insisted on going west, saying that there were two tigers, and if they were not killed in time, they would miss the opportunity. Cang Xie, it turns out that they are all looking at the footprints of underground beasts. Cang Xie suddenly felt happy: Since a footprint represents a wild animal, why can't I use a symbol to represent what I am responsible for? He ran home happily and began to create various symbols to represent things. Sure enough, manage things well.
When the Yellow Emperor knew it, he praised it and ordered Cang Xie to teach this method to all tribes. Gradually, the usage of these symbols has been popularized. In this way, the text is formed.
Cang Xie made a word, and the Yellow Emperor attached great importance to him. Everyone praised him, and his reputation is growing. Cang Xie's mind was a little hot, and his eyes slowly moved to the top of his head. No one looks down on him, his handwriting is very scrawled.
This word reached the ears of the Yellow Emperor, who was very angry. Courtiers have no room for deterioration in his eyes. How did Cang Xie realize his mistake? The Yellow Emperor called the oldest old man around him to discuss. The old man has tied more than 120 knots on his long beard, which shows that he is over 120 years old. The old man hesitated and went to Cang Xie alone.
Cang Xie is teaching people from all tribes to read. The old man sits quietly at the end and listens as carefully as everyone else. After Cang Xie finished speaking, everyone else dispersed, and only the old man was still sitting in his old place. Cang Xie was a little curious and asked him why he didn't go.
The old man said: Cang Xie, the words you created are well known, but I am old and dizzy, and there are still a few words that are still unclear. Can you teach me again?
Cang Xie looked at such a tall old man and respected him very much. He is very happy, urge him to speak quickly.
The old man said, Did you build it? Horse word,? Donkey? Word,? Mule? Word, with four legs? Cows also have four legs. Did you do it? Cattle? Why doesn't this word have four legs and only one tail?
Hearing this, Cang Xie was a little flustered: Did you do it yourself? Fish? When you write, have you finished writing? Cattle? Like, made of? Cattle? When you write, have you finished writing? Fish? Sort of. It's all my own carelessness, and I actually taught it backwards.
The old man went on to say, Did you make it? Heavy? Words mean thousands of miles away, to read far away? Out? Word, you teach people to pronounce it as weight? Heavy? Words. On the other hand, two mountains together? Out? Which word should be heavier? Heavy? Word, you teach out? Out? Words. These words really confuse me, so I have to ask you. ?
At this time, Cang Xie was ashamed and knew that he had made a big mistake because of his pride. These words have been taught by all tribes and spread all over the world and cannot be changed. He quickly knelt down and expressed his regret with tears.
The old man took Cang Xie's hand and said sincerely? Cang Xie, you created words, so that the experience of our older generation can be recorded and passed on. You have done a great thing, and people will remember you from generation to generation. You can't be arrogant ?
From then on, every time Cang Xie made a word, he always scrutinized the meaning of the word, but he could ask people's opinions, and he was not careless. Everyone agreed, then decided, and then gradually spread to every tribe.

Wang Xizhi taught his son to learn calligraphy.
Wang Xianzhi, the seventh son of Wang Xizhi, was smart and studious since childhood. He is good at cursive script and official script, and he is good at painting. He began to learn calligraphy at the age of seven or eight and studied under his father. On one occasion, Wang Xizhi saw that Xianzhi was practicing calligraphy attentively, so he quietly walked behind him and suddenly reached out to draw a brush in his hand. Xianzhi held the pen tightly and was not pulled out. Father was very happy and praised:? With this son, I will have a big name. ? Xiaoxian was smug after hearing this. Another time, a friend of Xizhi asked Xian to write on a fan, and then he wrote with a brush. Suddenly, the pen fell on the fan and polluted the words. Xiaoxian had a brainwave and a calf came alive on the fan. In addition, people are full of praise for the calligraphy and painting provided, and the small quotation has cultivated pride. The parents who saw this scene were also thoughtful.
One day, Xiao Xianzhi asked his mother Xi: I only need to write for another three years, right? Mom shook her head. ? It's been five years. Mother shook her head again. In desperation, I said to my mother: How long do you think it will take you to remember? After writing this 18 tank of water in the yard, your handwriting will be strong and flesh-and-blood, and you will stand straight and steady. ? My father stood behind him when I turned around. Wang Xianzhi refused to accept it and said nothing. He gritted his teeth for five years and showed his father a lot of written words, hoping to hear a few words of praise. Who knows, Wang Xizhi shook his head one by one. Buy one? Big? Without saying anything, my father showed a satisfied expression, and he was at ease? Big? Fill in a dot under the word, and then return all the manuscripts to dedication.
Xiaoxian was still not satisfied, but he showed all his calligraphy to his mother and said, I practiced for another five years, completely according to my father's words. Take a closer look. What is the difference between my father's handwriting and mine? Mother really looked at it carefully for three days and finally pointed it at Wang Xizhi? Big? The dot added under the word sighed and said, my son has worn out three tanks of water, and there is only one thing like it. ?
I was very discouraged after listening to it, and said weakly: difficult! At this rate, when will there be good results? His mother encouraged him to say: Son, as long as you work hard, there is no river you can't cross or mountain you can't climb. As long as you keep practicing as you have in recent years, you will certainly achieve your goal! ?
After listening to the dedication, I was deeply moved and kept practicing. Everything comes to him who waits. He used 18 buckets of water to practice calligraphy, and calligraphy made rapid progress. Later, Wang Xianzhi's calligraphy reached the state of penetrating paper and ink, and it was called "Wang Xizhi's calligraphy". Two kings? .

Choose a husband in an oriental bed.
That was a long time ago. At that time, there was a great official named Chi Jian. He is a man who loves talents very much. In order to choose a suitable object for her daughter, the boss Xi racked his brains. Later, when he learned that the children of the Wangs were handsome and talented, he wanted to narrow down the scope and choose one of these young people as a son-in-law. When the news came, the children of the Wangs were excited and nervous. They heard that Miss Xi has a good personality and is very talented. Who doesn't want to marry her? As a result, they were carefully decorated, sitting in school, seemingly reading books, and their hearts had already flown.
However, on the east side of the case, there is a person who is different. I saw him casually as usual, as if there was no such thing, and he was still writing intently. On this day, the weather was not hot, but the young man was so hot that he untied his coat and showed his stomach. Maybe he has no time to eat in the morning. As he wrote, he grabbed a mouthful of cold steamed bread and chewed it freely. His eyes were still fixed on the calligraphy in front of him. The right hand holding the brush has not been released for a moment, and sometimes it will be hung up to write. That serious expression makes people laugh.
Chi Jian sent his own representative to the school to observe and understand, and then he went back. In his opinion, the children of the Wangs are very good, polite, young, handsome and talented, and it is almost impossible to say which is the best and which is the worst. However, to say that the performance is not so satisfactory, there is another one. He bared his chest and abdomen, while writing and chewing steamed bread. It seems too casual, as if he didn't care about the boss's choice of son-in-law.
This adult Xi listened to the return, for this behavior? Whatever. Young people are interested. He inquired about the situation in detail, closed his hands happily and said, this is the son-in-law I am looking for. ? What's going on here? Boss Xi thinks that this young man doesn't take personal matters to heart, but concentrates on calligraphy, which is a promising performance. With such enthusiasm and infatuation, he is not worried about becoming a talent.
Guess who this young man is? It was none other than Wang Xizhi, and later he really became an outstanding calligrapher.

The emperor practiced calligraphy.
Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong, was an emperor in China's feudal society. When dealing with political affairs, he often devotes himself to practicing calligraphy in his spare time. At that time, Yu Shinan, known as one of the four great calligraphers in the early Tang Dynasty, worked in the palace. Because he is proficient in ancient and modern times, his words are like gods, so Emperor Taizong has always respected him and often copied and studied Yu Shinan's calligraphy.
In the process of practicing calligraphy, Taizong was deeply impressed by the fonts in the south of the city. Ge? Words are the most difficult to write, and it is not easy to write the spirit in them. Once, he practiced? Hey? I'm afraid I can't write it well and let the ministers see its jokes, so I deliberately put them on? Ge? Don't leave the words blank, please ask Yu Shinan to fill them in privately.
In order to show his progress in calligraphy, Emperor Taizong invited Wei Zhi, the remonstrator, to watch some works and ask Wei Zhi for advice. Do you think my handwriting looks like Bachelor Yu Shinan? Wei Zhi looked at it respectfully and carefully, always smiling without a word. At this time, Emperor Taizong asked him anxiously? Do you like it or not? Why don't you talk? Wei Zhi hurriedly said? I dare not comment on your majesty's calligraphy. ? Emperor Taizong said, frankly speaking, you are all right, but I forgive your innocence. ? So did Wei play? According to the minister, only? Hey? On the right side of the word? Ge? There is no difference between what you wrote and what I wrote, and the rest are far from each other. . Hearing these words, Emperor Taizong sighed deeply and admired Wei Zhi's eyesight, thus realizing that learning calligraphy can't be fake at all. You must work hard if you want to succeed.

? Ring beads?
Why is Wang Can Xi Zhi's calligraphy so extensive and profound? This is related to his regular exercise. Really? Ring beads? The story can illustrate this point from the side.
It is said that Wang Xizhi has a beloved pearl. This pearl is not only for entertainment, but also for viewing. Wang Xizhi often rubs his hands when writing to enhance his wrist strength. One day, the pearl suddenly disappeared. I looked and looked, but I couldn't find it. Wang Xizhi is very upset. Who stole it? There was no stranger around him except a monk who lived in his house, so he became cold to the monk. The monk found that the master had doubts about him, so he took it? Sitting? In the name of not eating, I am starving. Later, when the family slaughtered the white goose, pearls were found in the belly of the big white goose. It turned out that the big white goose swallowed the beads. When things were made clear, Wang Xizhi deeply felt that he had wronged the monk, regretted it and was very sad. He rebuilt his house in memory of the innocent monk? Jujie temple? Take the pearl-throwing incident as a lesson, treat your friends sincerely, and don't easily doubt others and let them be wronged. As a calligrapher, Wang Xizhi not only pays attention to exercising wrist strength and enhancing writing ability, but also strictly demands future generations. His son Wang Xianzhi studied calligraphy under the guidance of his father when he was very young. On one occasion, Wang Xizhi stood quietly behind him in order to check his dedication. While he was concentrating on writing, he suddenly held the writing brush in his son's hand with his fingers and pulled it up. Who knows that the pen is tight and the brush is not taken off. Wang Xizhi was very satisfied with this, and he said happily; ? The child will become a calligrapher in the future. ? And wrote a word on the spot to present it. This incident shows that the calligrapher's brushwork has been developed through hard work.

Occasionally flying white
Cai Yong in Han Dynasty was not only a writer, but also a famous calligrapher. ? Bai Fei's book? He created it. What do you mean? Bai Fei's book? And then what? You will know after listening to this story.
Cai Yong is not a person who reads and writes behind closed doors. He often travels to capture inspiration and rich experience. On this day, he sent the written article to Hongdumen of the Royal Library. The people there are very arrogant, so anyone who comes will have to wait outside the door for a while. While Cai Yong was waiting for an interview, several craftsmen were painting the walls with brooms dipped in this lime water. He just stood by and looked at it.
At first, he just wanted to kill time. But looking at it, can he see anything? Doorways? Here it comes. I saw the craftsman go down with a broom, and a white mark appeared on the wall. Because the broom seedlings are thin, they can't be soaked with too much lime water, and the wall is not very flat, so after a broom goes down, there are still some places on the white road that show the wall. I can't help but shine at the moment. He thought that before writing with a pen dipped in ink, the strokes were all black. Isn't it more vivid and natural to show some silk or paper with a black pen like a craftsman painting a wall? Thought of here, he suddenly fell into a mood. Hand in your article and run home at once.
Cai Yong returned home, forgot to rest, and prepared his own pen and ink. Thinking of the craftsman painting the wall, he began to write. Who knows it's easier to think of than to do? At first, the paper was not exposed or the exposed part was too hard. Far from being discouraged, he tried again and again. Finally, he mastered proper limit from the aspects of how much ink he dipped in, how much ink he used, and how fast he wrote. He wrote a faint white brush stroke in black, which made the words elegant and flying, and had a unique flavor.
Cai Yong's original writing style was quickly popularized and became? Bai Fei's book? . Until today, it has been used by calligraphers.
They were replaced by four famous calligraphers in Song Dynasty: Su, Huang, Mi and Cai. Su is Su Shi, namely Su Dongpo; Huang is Huang Tingjian; Rice is mifei; This is beyond reproach. Is it okay? Cai? And then what? Some people say it's Cai Jing, others say it's Cai Xiang. who is it? Opinions vary.
The most common saying is that this Cai was originally Cai Jing. Although people recognize his calligraphy attainments, they especially hate his character, so they are unwilling to recognize his status as a calligrapher. In Yuan You and Song Zhezong, in order to exclude dissidents, his name is Sima Guang and others? Traitor? And write their own inscriptions? Guilt? , carved into a national monument. At that time, many masons refused to carve this monument and were executed by Kantou. As soon as Cai Jing died, people immediately put that one? Yuan You Party Monument? Smash it. People also called him Gao Qiu, Tong Guan and Yang Jian. Who was in power at that time? Four traitors? .
Cai Jing's character is extremely bad. How can people tolerate him? Four great calligraphers? In the ranks? So I fired him. Is it okay? Su Huang Camo? Once again, let Cai Xiang replace Cai Xiang. He is good at learning the essence of his ancestors and he works hard. His calligraphy is very distinctive. So people think he should line up? Four? The first one should not be Cai Jing's last accomplice.
Cai Xiang not only has a high attainments in calligraphy, but also has an excellent personality. When he was an official in the DPRK, he dared to speak frankly, and even some powerful ministers were afraid of his three points. When he was an official in Quanzhou, Fujian, he built the famous Luoyang Bridge and Qili Avenue, which were welcomed by the local people.
From this perspective, character is more important than books. If a person can only write good words, but can't do good deeds, the people will inevitably abandon him, even if they don't leave him a small place in the world of books.

When they step on the threshold of his house, he wraps it in iron and is called? Iron gate limit? The ancients said:? A drop of water wears through a stone, and a rope saws through wood? Isn't it a portrayal of the wise and brave monk?

The poor monk became a great calligrapher.
Monk Huai Su, a great calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty, is also a model of hard work. Because he is poor and can't afford to buy paper, he writes with banana leaves every day. Later, he picked more than 10,000 pieces of plantain Ye Quan, made a wooden tray, painted it with color, and practiced calligraphy on it. After a long time, the nib actually wore through the board. He wrote more bald pens than Zhiyong, and later he was buried in a place called? Bizuka? . Huai Su studied hard for decades and finally set up his own family. His cursive script is the treasure of China's calligraphy.
As the saying goes:? Nothing is difficult in the world, if you put your mind to it? . Students, today, our study conditions are much better than those of Zhiyong, Zheng Qian and Huai Su. Shouldn't we seize this great opportunity to work hard?
