Who is Wang Xizhi's father?

Father Wang Kuang.

The mystery of Wang Qian's father Wang Kuang's disappearance

Wang Xizhi's father led troops to the northern expedition when Wang Xizhi was seven years old, that is, in the summer of Yongjia in the third year of Emperor Huai of Jin (AD 309). In the battle with Liu Cong, he was defeated and disappeared.

The world knows the splendor of the Xie Wang family, but they don't know that this gorgeous family, like ordinary families, has its own problems.

Wang's family, to which Wang Xizhi belonged, gloriously became the patron saint of the Jin Dynasty at the end of the Western Jin Dynasty. His father Wang Kuang, uncle Wang Dun and uncle Wang Dao were the most important figures in politics at that time, especially Wang Kuang. His mother was the aunt of Si Marui, the founding emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and he was the aunt and cousin of Si Marui. He made Si Marui move to Zhenjiang East that day, which made him an imperial career. The chaotic situation has created an opportunity for Wang Kuang to establish an immortal cause. He is like a blooming flower waiting for the result. However, politics is always insidious. Not only did the Sima family of the royal family want to crowd him out, but Wang Dun and Wang Dao of this family also coveted his position. As the most trusted person of cousin Si Marui, Wang Kuang stayed in the crucial Yangzhou County as the history of Huainan, trying to help Si Marui control the military power of Yangzhou (at that time, he was not proclaimed emperor, the supreme ruler of Jin Dynasty was Emperor Sima Chi, and the actual authority was Sima Yue). Unfortunately, in 309, Sima Yue ordered Wang Kuang to raise 30,000 soldiers from Huainan and cross Taihang Mountain to save the Party from Bing. At that time, the secretariat of soldiers was the famous Liu Kun. Unfortunately, when Wang Kuang led the troops, most of Bing's land had already fallen into the hands of Liu Yuan. Wang Kuang and Liu Cong met in Changping, Zhao Kuo's army, the war was fierce, and Rong Shi and Cao Chao died. Thirty thousand troops fell. The existing historical materials give neither the exact information of Wang Kuang's death nor the clues of Wang Kuang's surrender or escape. In short, Si Marui, the most effective political rookie in Nandu, disappeared. Later, the backbone of his helpers became Wang Dun and Wang Dao, and one of the horses who crossed the Yangtze River together finally became a dragon. It is clever to destroy the "opponent" by this means.

The situation of Wang Xizhi who lost his father will not be too bad. He has two uncles and a brother, Wang Jizhi, both of whom are quite famous. The Eastern Jin dare not "mistreat" their Wangs. Wang Kuang's cousins, Wang Dun and Wang Dao, controlled the situation of "the king and the horse * * * the world". But after paying a little attention to Wang Xizhi's life, he began to be an official. Wang Dun's rebellion failed, and Wang Dao's influence decreased. When Wang Dao wanted Wang Xizhi to revive his family business, Wang Xizhi flatly refused. Wang was born in Nanjing, but Wang Xizhi has always lived in Shaoxing. ..... can you be so "abnormal" without hatred that goes deep into the bone marrow?

There is even a puzzling mystery. After Wang Kuang disappeared for many years, there was a coffin in the north. Two generations of Wang Xizhi's uncles completed the work of moving Wang Kuang's coffin to the south. After Wang Xizhi's mother died, a couple finally died in the same cave.

Wang Xizhi has seven sons and one daughter.

The main characteristics of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy are peaceful and natural, euphemistic and subtle, graceful and graceful. Later generations commented: "If you float in the clouds, you will be frightened by moss." Father-in-law is Chi Jian, uncle Wang Yi and Wang Dao. Cousins Wang Tian, Wang Qia,

Wang Xuan, the eldest son, whose name is Yuan Bo, is a cursive and official script. His wife He married and died soon, leaving no children. Her younger brother Ning's son became her heir. Xuanzang attended the Lanting party hosted by his father before his death, and his position was passed down from generation to generation.

The second son, Wang Ningzhi, whose name is Shu Ping, served as Jiangzhou secretariat, right general, Huiji literature and history, cursive script and official script. He also attended the Lanting party hosted by his father Wang Xizhi and his talented wife Xie Daowen.

The third son, Wang Huanzhi, is good at cursive writing. He studied his father's calligraphy since he was a child, and reached the level of similarity. Some jobs are handed down from generation to generation. Huan Zhi also attended the Lanting party hosted by his father Wang Xizhi.

The fourth son, Su Zhi, whose name is Youjing, was once a counselor for General Zhong and a title of generals in ancient times. He attended the Lanting party hosted by his father Wang Xizhi. Some poems were handed down later, but his calligraphy posts were not handed down from generation to generation.

Wang Huizhi, the fifth son, is an outstanding calligrapher among the brothers.

Wang, the sixth son of Cao Cao, served as secretariat, assistant minister, secretariat and magistrate. His wife, He's grandfather, is the second son of Xuanzang and Hui.

The seventh son, Wang Xianzhi, achieved the highest achievement in calligraphy among his brothers.

Wang Xizhi's only daughter, whose name is unknown, only knows that she married Liu Chang in Yuyao, Zhejiang, and gave birth to a son and a daughter. Liu Jin, a gifted scholar, used to be a minister of history and a servant. Liu married Xie Yizhi's grandson and gave birth to a son, the famous poet Xie Lingyun. It can be seen that Xie Lingyun is the great-grandson of Wang Xizhi.
