Known as "Zhu Jingzhao", Changzhou (now Wuxian County, Jiangsu Province) was brilliant since childhood. At the age of five, he could write a big character one foot square, and at the age of nine, he could write poetry. In the fifth year of Hongzhi (1429), Zheng Dejiu (15 14) was awarded the order of Xingning County, Guangdong Province. In the first year of Jiajing (1522), he was transferred to Yingtian (now Nanjing) and was sentenced to death soon.
Zhu Yunming is famous for writing poems, especially calligraphy. He and Tang Yin are congenial and have a wild time. With Tang Yin, Wen Zhiming and Xu Zhenqing, they are also called "four gifted scholars in Wuzhong".

At the age of 54, at the age of 54, Gong Sheng tried to be an official. He was awarded a letter to imperial academy, so he called it a letter to be served.
Wen Zhiming's early fame and fortune career was not smooth. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, people who passed the examinations at all levels and passed the examinations in Shangguan, Zhou and County schools were generally called "students" or "Jinshi". Wen Zhiming took the exam at the age of a student, and passed it at the age of 53 in the first year of Jiajing (A.D. 1522), but failed to pass it, so he was a teenager. At the age of 54, he was recommended to the court in Beijing by Li Chongsi, the minister of the Ministry of Industry. After examination by the official department, he was awarded a low-paid post in imperial academy. At this time, his calligraphy and painting have gained a good reputation, and there are many requirements for his calligraphy and painting. As a result, he was jealous and excluded by his colleagues in imperial academy. Wen Zhiming was very unhappy. Since he came to Beijing in the second year, he has written a letter asking to resign and go home. His resignation report was approved three times in three years. At the age of 57, he left Beijing, sailed south and settled in Suzhou. From then on, he devoted himself to poetry and painting, stopped seeking an official position and took a show.

Before he finished writing, he "put down his pen and sat down and died."
Wen Zhiming's calligraphy and painting attainments are extremely comprehensive, and his poems, essays and paintings are excellent. People call it the "four unique" generalist. Although he imitated Shen Zhou, he still has his own style. He is versatile, green ink and wash, and meticulous brushwork. Mountains and rivers, people, flowers, orchids, etc.
Learn Chinese characters from Sue. Later, Wen Zhiming learned calligraphy from Young-jin Lee, who lived in Ou Yangxun. Young-jin Lee was a fair, gentle and clean person. Although he is not a master of calligraphy, he is a calligraphy educator. He is Zhu Zhishan's father-in-law and Wen Zhiming's first teacher. He not only passed on all his learning experience to Wen Zhiming, but also encouraged him to break through the tradition and be brave in innovation. When Wen Zhiming was 22 years old, Li Yingzhen read his Su Shu and said to Wen Zhiming, "How can we follow in the footsteps of others?" ? Let's learn to be Wang Xizhi, just someone else's ears! "These words affected Wen Zhiming.
Wen Zhiming is famous for being good at all kinds of calligraphy in history, especially at running script and small letters. Wang Shizhen commented in Yi Yan Yuan: "Wen Zhiming, who is about to make an imperial edict, is famous for his lower case letters, and his followers are familiar with it. His unique seal script writing is not inferior to others, but he himself has become a useful product. The book "Thousand Articles" has four styles, and the script is absolutely exquisite. There are "Huang Ting" and "legacy education" brushwork, and the style is light and moist. It can be called the jade version of "holy coke", and the official script is also wonderful in "Zen". Seal script is the style of Jin, Jin and Yang Bing, and regular script has a small method, which is commendable. "
Wen Zhiming's calligraphy is warm and graceful, steady and mature, rigorous in statutes and vivid in conception. Although there is no vigorous momentum, it has the charm of calligraphy in Jin and Tang Dynasties. His book style is less angry, and in his freehand brushwork, he often reveals a gentle and elegant atmosphere. Perhaps the ups and downs of his official career have killed his spirit of death, but he is a late bloomer and his style is becoming more and more calm. His masterpieces handed down from generation to generation include The Drunken Man's Meaning, Preface to the Royal Pavilion, Fu on the Red Wall, Poems of Fisherman, Li Sao, Biography of Beishan Literature, etc.

Later, he befriended Li Mengyang and He Jingming, writers of the Ming Dynasty, repented, and advocated retro. Together with He Jingming, Bian Gong, Kang Hai and Wang, they are called "the first seven sons". Qin Yi Lu, written by him, only talks about the Han and Wei Dynasties, but ignores the theory of restoring ancient ways after the Six Dynasties. His poems are elegant in style and gallop between Han and Tang Dynasties. Although deliberately retro, there is still a romantic feeling in Wuzhong.
Xu Zhenqing believed in Taoism in his later years and studied health preservation. In the sixth year of Ming Dynasty (15 1 1), Zheng De died in the capital at the age of 33, and his tomb was located at the northern end of Yujiabang, Wandian Bridge at the foot of Huqiu Mountain.

But King Nai failed to keep the whip,
I hate spring to the end of the world.

Before the leaves fell in Dongting, Xiaoxiang was full of autumn.
It's raining in Gaozhai tonight, and I'm alone in Wuchang City.
