Wang Zhihuan, or Wang Zhihuan, whose name is Ji Ling, is a famous poet in the prosperous Tang Dynasty and enjoys a high reputation so far. Such a celebrity, the old and new "Tang Shu" have no biography, and the "Tang Caizi Biography" is also very simple. Fortunately, the discovery of the epitaph of Taiyuan Wangfujun in Wen 'an County, Wen 'an County, Tang Dynasty, written by Jin Neng, provides some information about Wang Zhihuan.
Biography of Talented Talents in Tang Dynasty said that Wang Zhihuan was a Ji disciple, or he guessed because of his rare chivalry, young travel from Wuling Mountain and sad fencing. According to Jin Neng's epitaph, Jin Neng's family moved to Jiangxi County, and then Jinyang (now Taiyuan) was his original place and his home was Jiangzhou (now Xinjiang County, Shanxi Province). The epitaph says that Wang Zhihuan died in February of the first year of Tianbao (742), at the age of 55. It can be inferred that he was born in the fourth year of hanging arch after Wu (688).
Wang Zhihuan was born in the royal family of Taiyuan, and was a noble family at that time. Wang Long, his fifth ancestor, was the secretariat of Jiangzhou in the post-Wei Dynasty, and may have moved to Jiangzhou for this reason. Great-great-grandfather Wang xin, a doctor and a writer in Sui Dynasty, became the magistrate of Anyi County in Tang Dynasty. Grandfather Wang Biao, Tang Dynasty doctor, Wen 'an county magistrate. Father Yu, master book of crack hon, county magistrate of Junyi. From my great-grandfather to my father, although they are all officials, they are all small officials. Wang Zhihuan was born in an ordinary official family, ranking fourth. He was smart and studious since childhood. Before he was 2 years old, he was able to study articles intensively. Before he was strong, he was poor in classics. Somehow, Wang Zhihuan didn't take the imperial examination, but supplemented the main book of Hengshui in Jizhou with doors. Wang Zhihuan's parents had died when he was the master of Hengshui, and Li Di, the magistrate of Hengshui County, betrothed his third daughter to him.
The marriage between Wang Zhihuan and Lee may have a romance. When they got married in the 1th year of Kaiyuan (722), Wang Zhihuan was married and had children. She was 35 years old, while Li was 29 years old and 17 years younger than Wang Zhihuan. She was a young woman. More than a thousand county magistrates are married to a 35-year-old married little county commandant under his father, which is quite intriguing. This must be fascinated by Wang Zhihuan's talent.
Wang Zhihuan was so high-spirited that he didn't want to bow down for the humble position of Hengshui's chief secretary. In addition, someone framed him and attacked him, so he resigned angrily and left, "So he swam the green hills and cracked the yellow ribbon. The river is sandwiched by thousands of miles, which is due to its high wind; Fifteen years at home, eating its old virtues. Elegant talk about Jue Jue, cool and idle. " After 15 years of idleness and freedom at home. Later, his relatives and friends felt that it was not the right way for him to remain in the lower class, so they advised him to become an official. Later, it was still a humble job to fill the position of Wen' an county captain in Wen' an county. He is famous for his clean work style and fair management of the people, and is praised by the local people. Unexpectedly, before long, he could not afford to get sick and died in the official residence at the age of 55.
In his epitaph, Jin Neng called Wang Zhihuan "filial piety at home, kindness at friends, generosity and generosity, and unique talents", which can be described as a perfect summary of Wang Zhihuan's life.
after Li married Wang Zhihuan, they fell in love. Wang Zhihuan stayed at home for 15 years, and Li lived a poor life with him. Wang Zhihuan re-entered the official field, and his life just took a turn for the better, but he died of illness, leaving Lee widowed before he was 4 years old. Six years after Wang Zhihuan's death, Lee also died of illness. Because of his ex-wife, they could not be buried together.
Because of historical data, Wang Zhihuan's life story is little known to later generations, but as a famous poet, he is almost known to everyone. His well-known "Liangzhou Ci", that is, "The Yellow River is far above the white clouds, and there is a lonely city, Wan Ren Mountain. Why should Qiangdi complain about the willow? The spring breeze doesn't pass Yumenguan. It has been widely read by people in past dynasties and is called "the most quatrains" by Mr. Zhang Taiyan. "but you widen your view three hundred miles, by going up one flight of stairs" in "Climbing the Crane Tower" is even more famous. Wang Zhihuan's poems have been handed down very little. Only six poems are visible today, and these six poems are enough to make the name of Wang Zhihuan's poems and the universe * * *.
Wang Zhihuan's poetic titles are not only greatly admired by later generations, that is to say, when he was alive, he had already shocked the world. He often made friends with Wang Changling, Gao Shi, Cui Guofu, Chang Dang and other famous poets, and his poems were "spread to the movement and spread to the population". In the Tang Dynasty, Xue, a native of Hedong (now Yongji, Shanxi Province), used the story of "painting a wall with a flag pavilion" in Ji Yi Ji to explain people's worship of Wang Zhihuan's poems at that time. In Kaiyuan, Wang Zhihuan was on par with Wang Changling and Gao Shi. One day, it was cold and slightly snowy, and three people * * * came to the flag pavilion to have a drink. It happened that more than 1 Liyuan Lingguan and four famous geisha also came to this banquet, and the three of them watched it while warming themselves. Wang Changling suggested that each of us is good at poetry titles. Who is better than who? Today, we can see who sings more poems and who is the best. The first geisha sang Wang Changling's "A piece of ice heart is in the jade pot", and Wang Changling drew a picture for himself on the wall. The second song is Gao Shi's "Open your eyes with tears", and Gao Shi also drew one for himself. Then Wang Changling added another one. Wang Zhihuan said that these girls are ordinary geisha, and all of them sing from the Lower Liba people. It depends on whose poem the best geisha sings. If it wasn't my poem, I wouldn't dare to compete with you two all my life. When the famous prostitute sang, it was really a poem by Wang Zhihuan, and the three of them laughed happily. ZhuLing because they laughed and asked, know that it is Wang Zhihuan, etc., very happy, that is, invited them to the table. The flag pavilion painted the wall and became an allusion. Yuan people also put on a drama. This shows that Wang Zhihuan's poetry was famous at that time.
it's a pity that such a talented person will never be used, and the day is not false. This is also the common ending of all talented and upright intellectuals. Although only six of his poems have been handed down, these few poems are the essence of China's classical literature treasure house.
"As a general, if you master the correct pen, it is not too late to pick up those who are lacking in other aspects. It is just a process of continuous enrichment." This is Mr. Wang Huanzhi's way of writing. Mr. Guan Huanzhi's calligraphy, like a dragon out of the water, brings out the majestic publicity and the gentle and restrained jade, and the rigorous statutes and unconventional strokes are all coquettish, and the chic demeanor of "the calligrapher is beautiful" is all evident.
Mr. Huan Zhi, whose real name is Wang Quan, is the dean of the "Three Academies" in Zaozhuang, the 56th descendant of Wang Xizhi, and is known as the "Master of the Three Academies". He is of the same ancestry as Mr. Wang Lu 'an, the "Ancient Town Book Sage" who is well-known in the painting and calligraphy art circles in southern Jiangsu. Since childhood, I have devoted myself to studying Wang Xizhi's calligraphy art, and gained the essence of his art, which looks like both spirit and likeness, and created my own "Three Academies". His calligraphy is good at big grass, the pen front is retrograde, the ink is full of its front, the pen speed is fast and strong, the drawing is accidental, and the structure is strict. He inherited Wang Xizhi's "essence of traditional pen-using" with pen belly in front and pen belly in front, pen-ending mainly, and used the center of gravity switch between wrist, elbow, arm and waist, and made innovations.
Calligraphy is a portrayal of the writer's character, and self-correction is the first factor that is crucial to the calligrapher's artistic life. "There is a poetic spirit in the belly", and the calligrapher's aesthetic taste, talent, knowledge and life care are all infiltrated in calligraphy. Mr. Huanzhi has read poetry books since childhood, appreciated the connotation of classic works, and immersed the soul of poetry in calligraphy works. When he was young, he got the ancestral book of Xi, and he followed it carefully and diligently. Wang Xizhi's book is a copybook, and he has been taking classes all day long, often staying up all night, enjoying it and practicing it repeatedly for more than 1 years. He can recite the contents of the post by heart, and the structure of each word is also familiar to his heart. Sometimes, in order to draw every word accurately, I read the law posts crazily, so I can't sleep well, and I can't eat well. I have copied them thousands of times for more than a month. At the same time, thanks to the exemplary guidance of my uncle, Mr. Wang Lvan, calligraphy is getting better and better.
Mr. Guan Huan-zhi's calligraphy, like a water dragon, is flowing freely, and the majestic publicity and gentle and restrained jade complement each other. The rigorous laws and unconventional strokes are all coquettish, and the chic demeanor of "a calligrapher is full of beauty" is fully demonstrated. Zhuang Ziyan said: "My life is also limited, and knowledge is also limited." The path of aspiring artists is Xiu Yuan's, and Huanzhi is persistent in the research and creation of calligraphy. He has participated in important competitions at home and abroad, extensively dabbled in and learned from others, completed a systematic summary of China's traditional calligraphy represented by the book sage Wang Xizhi, and published Wang Xizhi and China's Traditional Calligraphy Pen, Wang Xizhi's Calligraphy and Its Word Formula, which gave Wang Xizhi a vivid expression and spread. He initiated calligraphy theory, a post-Wang Xizhi's pen, with a brand-new concept, and created and published Sanzhixuan's Book Sticks and Notes and Sanzhixuan's Book Theory, which attracted the attention of the book circles at home and abroad. "Sanzhixuan" is a study handed down from generation to generation by Wang Clan, a descendant of Xi, in memory of his ancestors, which means to cherish, cherish and tie the past. The "three" conjectured by Mr. Huanzhi are Wang Xizhi, Wang Xianzhi and Wang Huanzhi, which means to inherit Wang Xizhi's calligraphy tradition and create a new artistic height.
