Director Wang and Wang Xizhi are uncle-nephew.
Wang Dao (276-September 7, 339), whose courtesy name was Maohong and whose small names were Chilong and Along. A native of Linyi County, Langya County (now Linyi City, Shandong Province). A politician and calligrapher during the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he served as an official in the three dynasties of Jin Yuan, Ming and Cheng. He was one of the founders of the Eastern Jin regime.
Wang Dao was born in the famous "Langxie Wang Clan" in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. In his early years, he was friendly with Sima Rui, the king of Langya (Emperor Jin Yuan). Later, he suggested that he move to the town to build Ye, and he also contacted the southern nobles for him to appease him. Crossing the northern gentry southward.
When Wang Xizhi was young, he was favored by General Wang Dun and often asked Wang Xizhi to sleep with him. One time, Wang Dun got up first, and soon Qian Feng came in. Wang Dun ordered all his servants to leave, and they discussed the plan of rebellion. For a moment, they forgot that Wang Xizhi was still sleeping in the bed.
Wang Xizhi woke up and heard what Wang and Qian were talking about. He knew that he was going to die, so in order to survive, he had to smear his face and quilt with saliva and pretend to be asleep. In the middle of the conversation between Wang and Qian, Wang Dun suddenly remembered that Wang Xizhi had not gotten up yet, and said in shock: "Now that things have come to this, I have no choice but to kill this brat."
When he opened the mosquito net, he saw Wang Xizhi's face was drooled, thinking that he was fast asleep and heard nothing, so Wang Xizhi saved his life.
