Book saints Wang Xizhi and Jessica Hester Hsuan are said to be the couples with the highest quality of marriage in ancient times. What is the story between them?

The marriage between Wang Xizhi and Jessica Hester Hsuan is a constant love for 70 or 80 years, which is a rare story from ancient times to the present. In ancient times, marriage was the language of parents' orders. To achieve a perfect match, it can be said that it is rare to meet the requirements. If you add the saying that the quality of ancient marriage is the highest, it will be even harder.

Speaking of Wang Xizhi, we all know that he is a handsome man with a great book and calligraphy, shocking writing style and brilliant talent. With a prominent family background and aristocratic children, he can be said to be a real Gao Fushuai. Wang Xizhi was good at writing calligraphy at the age of seven, and was also appointed by the king to write a congratulatory message and carve it on a board, from which the word "incisive" came. Wang Xizhi learns calligraphy from his uncle and aunt. His relatives were all famous calligraphers at that time, so it can be said that the whole family were celebrities.

And Jessica Hester Hsuan is also a famous talented woman, a famous calligrapher in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, with a noble family background and a rich and beautiful share. My father, Chi Jian, is a great official of the imperial court and a famous calligrapher. Xuanxuan was influenced by his family since childhood and loved calligraphy. She was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and was the first talented woman at that time.

Since ancient times, marriage has been said by the right people, and their respective fathers are court officials and good friends who have known each other for many years. So, I wanted to combine these two famous women with both talents and looks at that time. They are made for each other. But it was a little inappropriate for them to meet directly, so the two old fathers thought of a wonderful method.

Let Xuanxuan go to the Wangs to choose her future husband. At that time, the children of the Wang family were all dressed up, but Wang Xizhi disagreed and lay in bed reading. I didn't expect such a carefree manner to fall into Xuanxuan's eyes. In this way, Wang Xizhi was selected, and the "East Bed Son-in-law" came from this.

After that, the two were ordered to get married, and they were both satisfied. The so-called love at first sight is probably like this. The legendary marriage of the two began. Wang Xizhi has only one wife, Xuanxuan, and no concubines. Three wives and four concubines were common in ancient times, but Wang Xizhi only fell in love with Yun Xuan and gave birth to eight children for him. Wang Xizhi didn't like being an official, so Xuanxuan accompanied him to travel and spend his later years with him. This is a much-told story.
