JI Wang's tombstone, the inscription does not contain the owner's name and taboo, which is unprecedented in the history of inscriptions. JI Wang tombstone is the only tombstone of Cao Wei unearthed in Luoyang so far, and it is only seen in China, and there is no analogy. JI Wang experienced five emperors of Han, Wei and Wu dynasties before his death, having both virtue and virtue, and was famous for being both civil and military. He made a contribution to the country and was listed as one of the princes. After he was buried in Luoyang, he was ordered to erect a monument to show this. Why does the inscription have no name? This mystery did not involve the Fang family. A fool thinks he should be forced by the situation.
Ye, an epitaph in the Qing dynasty, had an incisive exposition on this: "Book of Rites in Song Dynasty": After ten years of Jian 'an, the national situation declined, and it was forbidden to erect monuments. In the second year of Ganlu, an aristocratic township, the general joined the army and died in Wang Lun. Brother Lunge described his beautiful heritage because he was afraid of Wang Dian, not an inscription, so this monument was forbidden and strict. In the fourth year of Xianning, Emperor Wu of Jin declared: Monuments show private beauty, honor hypocrisy, and more than that, they are forbidden. Yixizhong, Pei Songzhi, the doctor of Shangshu Ancestral Hall, discussed the ban again. Look at this, Wei and Jin dynasties have repeatedly applied for prohibiting the erection of monuments. However, ministers are all officers, and everyone is private. "And the JI Wang Monument obviously does not belong to this kind of private. In the second year of Jingyuan (26 1), JI Wang, the Eastern Wuhou, not only held a state funeral, but also added gifts, and even "thought that the stone table was carved", which was really an imperial edict. Because it was an obvious violation of Wang Dian, the method of contingency was adopted to erect a monument. This is probably why the inscription is nameless. This practice is actually the idea of General Si Mazhao, who holds real power.
The calligraphy of this tablet is neat and steady, square and elegant, with round and heavy strokes and vigorous stippling, which mostly appears in the form of letters, sharp points, yin and yang change points, sharp pens in pens and sharp pens in hooks. The words are free and easy, smart and charming, both unfamiliar with the official law and disdainful of the ancient version. Although some stippling is slightly less delicate, it can also be seen that it is careless and sloppy, and it is really one of the treasures of Cao Wei's calligraphy in the Three Kingdoms.
