(2) Huang Tingjing: There is a legend about Huang Tingjing in the small print: Yin Shan has a Taoist who wants Wang Xizhi's calligraphy. Knowing that I love geese, I specially prepared a cage of fat white geese as a reward for writing scriptures. When Wang Xizhi saw the goose happily writing scriptures to the Taoist priest, he happily "caged the goose and went home". The original text is contained in the Book List of Southern Dynasties. It is said that Wang Xizhi's book is the Tao Te Ching, but it has become the Huang Ting Ching after repeated dissemination. Therefore, Huang Tingjing, also commonly known as "changing goose posts", ended with "May of the 12th year of Yonghe (356)", and now it is only a transcript of later generations.
(3) Preface to the Orchid Pavilion Collection: This article is a preface to Wang Xizhi's poems when he held a "deed-repairing" banquet with some scholars on March 3, the ninth year of Yonghe in the Eastern Jin Dynasty (AD 353). ***28 lines, 324 words, perfect composition, structure and brushwork, is his masterpiece at the age of 33. Later generations commented: "The font of the right army has changed. Its heroic spirit is natural, so it is thought that it has been a teacher since ancient times. " Therefore, calligraphers of all ages regarded Lanting as "the first running script".
(4) Sunny post when it is snowing: Wang Xizhi's book. The running script has four lines, and the font is smooth and beautiful. Yuan Zhao Mengfu once called this post "the best calligraphy in the world". "Shiqu Baodi" received three posts from Jin people, called "Three Wishes", which ranked first. It can be seen that people attach importance to it.
(5) Confucius Post: "Confucius Post" and "Frequent Sorrow" are Wang Xizhi's running scripts, and the two posts are connected into a piece of paper. The paper version is now in the Yude Society of Maeda, Japan. It is a copy of the name of Wang Xizhi who flowed into Japan in the Tang Dynasty, together with Huan Fan's post in Funeral.
(6) Mourning Post: Mourning for Huan Fan is a handwriting copied by Wang Xizhi in the Tang Dynasty. Paper books. Now the Japanese Palace is hidden. There are also three seals of Zhu Wen's "calendar extension" on the post, which is equivalent to three years from Jianzhong in Tang Dezong to Yongzhenyuan in Tang Shunzong. It can be seen that this post was introduced to Japan in the Tang Dynasty. "Mourning Post" is exquisite in brushwork and multifaceted in structure. It is a typical work of the latest style created by Wang Xizhi.
(7) Seventeen posts: "Seventeen posts" is Wang Xizhi's cursive masterpiece, and the content is his letters. It is named after the word "seventeen". Seventeen ink posts have been lost, and only one copy has been handed down from generation to generation. The cursive script of Seventeen Posts was evaluated by predecessors as "the brushwork is ancient, with the meaning of seal writing", and some people think that the characters in the posts have a wave-like brushwork, and the characters are independent. This just shows that he is good at "combining various laws and preparing one family", so he can form his unique cursive style.
