Legend has it that the emperor at that time went to the northern suburbs to offer sacrifices and asked Wang Xizhi to write his congratulatory message on a board, and then sent workers to carve it.

Woodworkers are amazed at Wang Xizhi's pen power, perfect calligraphy skills and his pen power. Cut to the chase is derived from this story.
2. Liu Gongquan
Try to practice calligraphy.
One day, Liu Gongquan and several friends held a "reading club". At this time, an old man selling tofu saw his handwriting, "I can write about Feng Fei's family background and dare to boast in front of people." He felt that the child was too proud and frowned and said, "This word is not well written, just like my tofu, it is soft, flat and spineless. Is it worth boasting in front of people? "
Hearing this, Hsiao Kung chuan said unhappily, "Write some words for me if you can." The old man smiled heartily and said, "No, I dare not. I am a clown and can't write well. " However, some people write with their feet much better than you! If you don't believe me, go to Huajing. "
The next day, Xiao Gongquan got a vigil and went to Huajing alone. As soon as he entered the capital of China, he saw many people gathered around a big pagoda tree. He squeezed into the crowd and saw a black and thin old man, without arms and barefoot, sitting on the ground, his left foot pressing paper, his right foot holding a pen, writing couplets freely, and his handwriting was like a galloping horse, while flying while flying, which won applause from the onlookers.
Xiao Gongquan plopped down on his knees in front of the old man and said, "I would like to worship you as a teacher, please tell me the secret of writing ..." The old man quickly pulled Xiao Gongquan up with his feet and said, "I am a lonely man, born without hands, and I can only live skillfully with my feet. How can I be a teacher? "
Xiao Gongquan begged, and the old man spread a piece of paper on the ground and wrote a few words with his right foot: "Write eight jars of water, and the inkstone is dyed black;" When you win hundreds of parents, you will get a twins. " Liu Gongquan kept the old man's words in mind and worked hard to practice calligraphy. Thick cocoons were ground on the hands and the elbows were patched layer by layer. After hard training, Liu Gongquan finally became a famous calligrapher in China.
3.miffy
Miffy research books.
Mifei studied writing with her husband in a private school for three years when she was a child, and she didn't make any progress.
One day, a scholar passed by his hometown in Mi Fei. Miffy heard that he wrote a good hand and went to ask for advice. When the scholar saw a child coming for advice, he wanted to write in Mi Fei. He read it over and over again and said thoughtfully, "If you want to learn from me, you have to buy my paper. Five taels of silver is more expensive. "
Hearing this, Mi Fei was startled and thought, how can there be such expensive paper in the world? Aren't people hard? But he was eager to learn Chinese, so he went back and borrowed five taels of silver to buy the scholar a piece of paper. "Go back and write well. Show it to me in three days. " The scholar said.
Mi Fei returned home, holding the paper bought for five taels of silver in both hands, reluctant to use it. He put the paper aside, returned to the table, opened the copybook and scratched it on the table with a pen that was not dipped in ink. For three days in a row, he was like this, thinking over and over again, but he didn't even want to write on paper.
"Because paper is expensive, I don't want to write. In the past three days, I have repeatedly pondered the copybook and pondered almost all the words. " "That's right. Learning books is not just writing, but being tempted. You should not only observe its shape, but also understand its god and get its information, so that you can write well. "
From then on, Mi Fei kept in mind the teachings of scholars and practiced calligraphy attentively, and finally became a famous painter and calligrapher.

5. Wang Duo
Shenbi Wang Duo
Legend has it that after Wang Duo entered the cabinet to pay homage, the emperor asked him to write a plaque: The world is at peace. After the huge plaque in regular script was hung up, in the midst of admiration, a eunuch suddenly found that the word "Tai" was a little less and became the world's first "big" flat. They looked up and looked carefully, and it was true.
Just as I was asking questions, I saw Wang Duo unhurriedly holding a rotten pen and throwing it on the plaque. It is neither high nor low, neither crooked nor oblique, just pointing to the lower left of the word "big", and a word "too" is displayed under the eyes of the public. The emperor was surprised and praised, "Wang is really a stroke of genius." From then on, "Wang Duo" became famous all over the world.
