Zhang Xu, born in Wuxian County, Suzhou (now Suzhou, Jiangsu), was a calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty. He is good at cursive writing and likes drinking. He is called "Zhang Dian" by the world, and is also called "Zhang Dian drunk" with Huai Su.

He and He, Zhang and Bao Rong are also called "Wu Sizi", and with whom they are called "Eight Immortals of Drinking". His cursive script, Li Bai's poems and songs, and Pei Min's sword dance are also called "three wonders".

In calligraphy, Zhang is good at observing objective things and combining objective natural images with personal subjective feelings. He not only inherits tradition, but also dares to innovate. By inheriting and innovating the calligraphy achievements of predecessors, his own weed art reached a peak in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

Second, the original text:

A spring outing in Zhang Xu is worth the fare. I want to find a porch and a clear statue, and the clouds on the river will ache faintly at night. The east wind blew away the rain, and the Ming Dynasty stayed in Huayuan.

Third, translation:

I want to find a pavilion by the river and enjoy the beautiful scenery while drinking sake. Now, as night falls, the river is drizzling. I hope the east wind will blow and disperse the rain. In this case, I can go to Huayuan to have a good time tomorrow.
