Wang Xizhi of the Jin Dynasty, named Shao Yi, was the son of Wang Kuang, a calligrapher of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. At the age of seven, he was good at calligraphy. When he was twelve years old, he saw the previous generation of Pen Shuo under his father's pillow and stole it. Father said, "Why did you steal my secret book?" Wang Xizhi smiled and didn't answer. His mother asked, "Are you looking at brushwork?" Seeing that he was young, his father said to Xizhi, "When you grow up, I will teach you calligraphy." I bow down to you. Now let my son read this book. Looking at it when you grow up will delay your child's early development. Father was very happy and gave him the book at once. In less than a month, calligraphy has made great progress. When Mrs. Wei knew this, she told Taichang, "This child must have seen the skill of using a pen. I recently saw his calligraphy, which is old and successful. " He said with tears: "This child will definitely surpass me in fame in the future." When the Jin emperor was in power, he offered sacrifices in the northern suburbs, and Zhu Ban changed. The craftsmen carved words on paper with sharp brushwork. Thirty-three people wrote Preface to Lanting Collection, and thirty-seven people wrote Huang Ting Classic. Later, someone in the air said, "Your calligraphy touched me, but what about the world?" I'm grandpa Tiantai, claiming to be really better than Zhong You. "Most of Xi Zhi's calligraphy is not a font.
