Mr. Xiong Xiling, the Premier of the Republic of China and a famous philanthropist, once said a famous saying: "When this gentleman comes out, the world is warm." Among them, there is a little-known story, let's talk about it here.
Xiong Xiling, known as "Hunan prodigy" since childhood, is gifted, quick-witted and outstanding in literary talent. According to legend, when he was studying in the original school of Tang Jingshui, one year on the day of the flower dynasty, he got together with the new juren and scholars to propose a toast. After enjoying the flowers and the moon, I began to recite poems and paint. Some painted peonies, some painted lotus flowers, and more painted plums, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums. Xiong Xiling is the only one who is unique and different. He paints with cotton. A cotton plant, vividly on the paper, has beautiful branches and leaves, is in bud, stands proudly and has extraordinary momentum. The people present began to be startled and scoffed at it, thinking that such a painting could not be elegant. Able to shrug off, Xiong Xiling finished painting, calmly in the blank of the painting, put pen to paper to write down the seven words that have long been remembered-this gentleman warms the world and shocked four people at one time, which is overwhelming and all the scholars are impressed. Xiong Xiling is expressing his ambition through cotton, which shows that young Xiong Xiling has extraordinary ambition.
