Zhoujianjin calligraphy

Translation:

In April of the sixth year of Zhenguan, the emperor spent the summer in Jiucheng Palace. This used to be Renshou Palace in Sui Dynasty. Build palaces to cover Shan Ye, cut off valleys to form ponds and trenches. Bridge across the water column, and build towering double pavilions in steep places, surrounded by high pavilions and cloisters. Houses crisscross and terraces crisscross. Looking up at the sky can reach a hundred miles, overlooking the steep mountains can reach a thousand miles. Brilliant as pearls and jade, gold and jade set each other off. Its brilliance can burn clouds, and its height can reach the sun and the moon.

It's extravagant to watch him build a palace to move the mountain back, because people's indulgence is really to blame. As for the hot summer when heat can melt metal, there is no muggy and steaming temperature here; The breeze blows slowly, bringing cool comfort. This is really a good place to live and a resort for recuperation. Ganquan Palace in Han Dynasty can't be surpassed.

Original text:

In the sixth year of Wei Zhenguan, the emperor spent almost 90% of his summer in the palace, which is also called the first achievement of Sui Zhiren. The mountain is against the temple, the valley is the pool, the water frame is crossed, and the rock is divided. There are tall shelves and long corridors everywhere. The building is covered with rubber, and the terraces are uneven. Looking up, you can find everything, while looking down, you can see everything. The pearl walls set each other off, resplendent and magnificent, and the burning clouds covered the sun and the moon.

Watching it move mountains and rivers, it is extremely poor, and it is particularly good to follow people's desires. As for the golden scenery, there is no stagnation and steaming; There is a gentle breeze and a chill. Believe in the beauty of the body, sincerely cultivate the spiritual resort, and the Han family can't return it.

This article is from the regular script of Wei Zhi written by Ou Yangxun Shudan, a calligrapher in the sixth year of Tang Zhenguan (632).

Creative background:

In the fifth year of Emperor Taizong's Zhenguan (63 1), Li Shimin ordered the restoration of Renshou Palace of Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty, and later renamed it Jiucheng Palace. The following year, Emperor Taizong came to Jiucheng Palace for the summer. While visiting the palace, he met a clear spring. When he was happy, he ordered Wei Zhi to write an article and Ou Yangxun to write an inscription in the sixth year of Zhenguan (632).

According to the Book of the Tang Dynasty: "During the Zhenguan period, Sui Renshou was changed to Jiucheng Palace, and during the Shuihui period, it was changed to Wannian Palace. The palace is in Lushan, which was ruled for thirteen years. " Jiucheng Palace is also the Renshou Palace in Sui Dynasty, and Wei is famous for it. He also wanted Emperor Taizong to take Sui as a warning so that he could meet Wei. According to "Yizhou Mountain Man Draft", Wei had the intention of admonishing Taizong, so at the end of the cloud: "Think high and fall, hold full and avoid overflowing."
