Wang Xizhi's "Post on a Quick Snow and Clear Scene"
Post: Xizhi paused. It snows and then it clears. Jia wants peace and kindness. Unsuccessful. For the knot. Not strong enough. Wang Xizhi paused. Shanyin Zhanghou.
Translation 1: Wang Xizhi pays homage: It snowed for a while just now, and now it’s sunny again. I believe everything is fine with you! That incident didn't help, and I still feel confused. Many things in the world are so helpless. Wang Xizhi paid homage to him, and Marquis Zhang of Shanyin consecrated him personally.

Translation 2:
When watching the CCTV documentary "Taipei National Palace Museum" , the explanation of Kuai Xue Shi Qing’s post is as follows: Hello Mr. Zhang from Shanyin, it snowed just now, and now it’s sunny again. I believe everything is fine where you are! I couldn't go to the last party and I felt very depressed. The person who delivered the letter to your family said that he could not stay here longer and had to go back quickly, so I will write these first. Yours sincerely, Wang Xizhi.

Translation 3: Xi Zhi's Salute: The heavy snow soon stopped and the sky turned sunny, making people feel refreshed and comfortable. I suddenly thought of you, how have you been recently? My official career is still undecided and I’m still stuck in a tangle, but I’m still powerless! Wang Xizhi first read about Shanyin Zhanghou
"Quick Snow and Clear Post"
This post is a short letter written by Wang Xizhi to "Shanyin Zhanghou". After the heavy snow, the weather clears up and I ask my friends if they are well. It begins with the sentence "Xizhi pauses" and ends with the same honorific, which is rare in ancient letters. Wang Xizhi's ink writing has been lost to this day. This calligraphy is a faithful copy by later generations, but the original appearance can still be seen.
Qianlong’s imperial brushes are extremely skilled
The characteristic of Wang Xizhi’s calligraphy lies in the graceful “body posture”, where “body” refers to the shape and posture of the characters, and “shi” refers to the strokes The sense of rhythm produced, taking the word "kuai" as an example, the two parts facing each other on the left and right have an echoing relationship. The right shoulder of "夬" is slightly high, and the last stroke is right, which harmonizes the tilted posture. The character "雪" has a similar situation. The upper part is tilted to the left, and the last horizontal stroke has a downward-rightward stroke, so the center of gravity of the entire character is also adjusted.
Zhao Mengfu's postscript "Kuai Xue Shi Qing Tie"
Many people believe that "Kuai Xue Shi Qing Tie" is second only to his "The Best Running Script in the World" "Lanting Preface" 》Another masterpiece of running script.
"Quick Snow and Clear Tie" was also regarded by Emperor Qianlong as the first of the "Three Treasures". In front of the post, he wrote eight small characters: "Unparalleled in the world, rarely matched in ancient and modern times" and four big characters: "Amazing skills". He also said: "The dragon leaps over the Tianmen, and the tiger lies in the Phoenix Pavilion." There are twenty-eight characters in the book, and each word is a pearl, known as the "Twenty-eight Li Pearls".
