Idiom Story In the Southern Qi Dynasty, there was a scholar named Zhang Rong, the son of ZhangChang, a long history, and the grandson of Zhang Wei, a doctor. He is eccentric by nature and behaves strangely. Although Zhang Rong is short and ugly, he likes to walk with his head held high and no one is watching, and he is quick-witted and often answers questions from others.
Xiao Daocheng, the great ancestor of the Southern Qi Dynasty, admired Zhang Rong's talent and character when he was not an emperor. Zhang Rong is eloquent and humorous. Once Zhang Rong asked for leave to return home, and Xiao Daocheng asked him where his family lived. Zhang Rong replied, "I live on land but not in a house, on a boat but not on water." Xiao Daocheng didn't understand what was going on, so he asked Zhang Xu, Zhang Rong's relative. Zhang Xu told the emperor: "Zhang Rong's family lives near Dongshan and has no fixed residence." Take a boat to the shore for the time being and the whole family will live in it. " Xiao Daocheng laughed. On another occasion, Xiao Daocheng promised to grant Zhang Rong the title of Stuart's long history face to face, but he didn't formally issue the imperial edict for a long time. One day, Zhang Rong rode a pitifully thin horse down to the DPRK. Xiao Daocheng saw it and asked him, "Why is your horse so thin? How much feed do you give it every day? " Zhang Rong replied: "I promised to feed it a stone millet, but I didn't really feed it!" " Xiao Daocheng understood Zhang Rong's meaning, and then formally granted Zhang Rong the position of Stuart Changshi.
On one occasion, Xiao Daocheng and Zhang Rong discussed calligraphy. Xiao Daocheng said: "Your calligraphy is already quite strong, but it still lacks the statutes of two kings." Zhang Rong replied, "Your Majesty should not say that I lack the statutes of the two kings, but that the two kings lack my statutes." In writing articles, Zhang Rong also advocates originality and his own style. He wrote in Preface to the Law of Men: "As a man, one should develop one's creativity like Confucius edited Poems and Books and formulated Rites and Music. Why should one imitate others and live under their fences like birds?"
