The story of the word "less than one horizontal":
Yang, the founder of Quanjude, asked a scholar named Qian Zilong to write a plaque. After several storms, this plaque has been hung 130 years. However, I don't know if you have noticed that the word "Germany" on the Quanjude plaque is missing a horizontal line. Why is this?
Some people say that at that time, Boss Yang invited Qian Zilong, and they had a good time. When Yang learned that Qian Zilong's calligraphy was very good, he immediately took out his pen and ink and asked Qian Xiucai to write a word. Because Qian Xiucai drank two more cups, he was in a trance. In his carelessness, he forgot to write the word "De".
Others said that when Yang started his business, a guy * * * hired 13, plus a person * * * himself 14. In order to let everyone work with peace of mind, Qi Xin made concerted efforts, and Qian Xiucai was asked to write one line less, indicating that everyone could not draw a knife in their hearts. When you hear this, you may ask: Isn't it more wholeheartedly to add a horizontal line?
Of course, these are all guesses and legends. What is the real reason? It turns out that as early as 1000 years ago, "de" was like a disyllabic word with horizontal lines and horizontal lines. This can be confirmed by the ink of famous calligraphers in Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. For example, the word "De" in the Imperial Book of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, which is now located in the Confucius Temple in imperial academy, Beijing, is not horizontal; Another example is the word "De" written by Zheng Banqiao, a painter in the Qing Dynasty who founded Quanjude at the same time. Some of them have horizontal lines, while others have no horizontal lines.
In addition, we can also study the word "De" from the perspective of ancient coins in China. For example, the word "De" in Jingdezhen Baotong, which was cast in northern Song Zhenzong (A.D. 1004), has no horizontal character, while the word "De" in Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty (A.D. 1426) has horizontal characters.
From the above analysis, it can be concluded that in the past, the word "de" was written horizontally and horizontally, and both of them were correct. In order to keep the original appearance of the plaque, the word "de" on the plaque has lost a horizontal line.
