Adding names to couplets is interesting. It is a wonderful flower in China's couplet forest.
According to legend, when Amin official Li Mengyang was an examiner in Jiangxi, one of the examinees had the same surname as him. Surprised, he had a brainwave and took the joint exam: "Lin Xiangru and Sima Xiangru have the same name, but they are not." Lin Xiangru was a doctor of Zhao in the Warring States Period and a writer in the Han Dynasty. How to deal with different people in different times? Unexpectedly, this candidate is also quite talented. After thinking for a moment, he said to him, "Wei Wuji, Sun Chang Wuji, you are ignorant, and I am ignorant." Wei Wuji was the most trusted king of Wei during the Warring States Period, and Sun Chang Wuji was the minister of the Tang Dynasty. This clever question and answer is natural and appropriate. It's a wonderful couple.
Ji Xiaolan, the master of couplets, and his wife joined the couplets with Jing Yong. His wife pointed to his screen window on a moonlit night and said, "When the moon shines on the screen window, everyone is wise." The witty Ji Xiaolan was stumped, because he had no right, so he regarded this connection as "absolute". In fact, even if it is absolutely not "absolutely", some people later said that "the wind sends fragrance and Mei Lanfang is gloomy". Kong Ming and Zhuge Liang are no strangers, and it may not be difficult to understand Hua Meilanfang. He is the founder of the four major Mei schools in Beijing Opera, and is also the combination of his stage name and role, which can be described as a match made in heaven.
1945, someone in Chongqing skillfully combined a couplet with the names of several painters and painters, which was very interesting. Lian Yue: "Qi Baishi, Fu Baoshi, the old stone is not as good as the stone, and the two stone paintings are abrupt; Xu Dishan, Ouyang Shan, Qianshan Houshan, Wen Yuan, Shuang Shan, stand out from the crowd. " Qi Baishi is a famous modern painter and seal engraver. Fu Baoshi is a modern painter and art educator. Xu Dishan and Ouyang Shan are both modern novelists. The first couplet runs through the word "stone". The author extracts the word "stone" from the names of characters, interprets the original meaning of Chinese characters as "stone", and then describes the stone with abrupt words to praise their outstanding contributions to painting and calligraphy. The second couplet runs through the word "mountain", explaining the mountain as a "mountain peak", and then forming a guest mountain with majesty to praise their outstanding achievements in literature. Couplets are neat, appropriate and natural, funny and unique.
During the Anti-Japanese War, cultural figures gathered in Beijing, and Mao Dun, a famous writer, wrote a couplet with the names of six cultural figures. Lian Yue said, "Lao She has always loved Fengzi, and Hu Feng and Hu Kao were born." The upper and lower couplets overlap, but have different meanings. Lao Xiang is Wang, a cultural figure and executive director of the second Council of the All-China Anti-Enemy Association of Literary and Art Circles. Toyoko, a famous actor. Because Lao She often praised Feng Ziyou's theory of the first couplet. The old direction, that is, the total deviation. Longsheng is the painter Gao Longsheng, a native of Shandong, who is straightforward. Hu Feng likes Gao Longsheng's paintings and often comments on their merits in public. Gao Longsheng attaches great importance to Hu Feng's opinion. If Hu Feng is satisfied, he will publish it immediately. If Hu Feng is not satisfied, he will redraw it. Gao Longsheng is often subject to this kind of "inspection", so there is a second line. Hu Kao: Here, the name is changed to mean random inspection. This is a joke, not a derogatory one.
During the Anti-Japanese War, Lao She wrote several poems about people's names in Chongqing, all of which were composed of the names of cultural celebrities. One of the most neat and meaningful couplets is: "Su Yuan Chen Zhushou, Lao She Xie Bingxin."
