Emperor Taizong tried his best to supervise Xiao Yi. Through careful planning, it won the trust of the debater and got the preface to Lanting Collection. The second thing: Emperor Taizong collected calligraphers at that time, and the next imperial edict was that Ou Yangxun, Yu Shinan and Chu Suiliang copied the Preface to Lanting respectively. The third thing: In Li Shimin's testamentary edict, Emperor Taizong requested that the Preface to Lanting be placed under his name, and he would have this beloved treasure forever.
So obsessed with the calligraphy emperor, then his appreciation of calligraphy is quite high. We all looked at the calligraphers around Emperor Taizong, who were not scholars at that time. The emperor read a lot of real books and teachings, and his vision was naturally high. Everyone in the world knows that beauty is beauty or evil; The same is true of calligraphy aesthetics. Then there is the aesthetic height. Emperor Taizong had a deep understanding of calligraphy theory, and even wrote and commented on calligraphy theory. The royal family has its own royal spirit, that is, aristocratic spirit. Therefore, Tang Taizong's calligraphy still contains his innate royal spirit. Of course, in the final analysis, this is inseparable from the diligent practice and writing of Emperor Taizong. He reads a lot of memorials every day, and in the process, he freely and naturally strengthens his calligraphy application. Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty, not only had high martial arts skills, but also commanded the three armed forces, fought in the south and fought in the north, and made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty. Moreover, he was good at government, benevolent and loving the people and became an emperor.
Carry out the policy of rest and recuperation, attach importance to agriculture and industrial culture, open the era of Zhenguan rule, strengthen the country and reassure the people, and lay a solid foundation for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. He especially likes calligraphy, especially Wang Xizhi's. After I got Wang Xizhi's Preface to the Orchid Pavilion, I read it all day and couldn't put it down. In order to share with others, Feng Chengsu, Chu Suiliang and others were ordered to copy the Preface to the Lanting Pavilion. It is said that the original of the Preface to the Lanting Pavilion was buried with him after his death. This shows his love for calligraphy. Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty, occupies an extremely important position in the history of calligraphy and has made indelible contributions to the prosperity and development of calligraphy in Tang Dynasty. He appointed calligraphy as one of the six schools in imperial academy in the imperial court, set up a doctor of calligraphy, paid a high salary to maintain honesty, took calligraphy as an official, and set up an official position in Hong Wen Pavilion.
Because of his advocacy, the development of calligraphy in the Tang Dynasty was promoted, and many outstanding masters emerged, such as Ou Yangxun, Yu Shinan, Yan Suiliang and Xue Qi, which opened the prosperous period of calligraphy in the Tang Dynasty. Emperor Taizong himself was also an outstanding calligrapher. He studied Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, which is more handsome and heroic than the right army, and can be described as the highest calligraphy of ancient and modern emperors.
Existing works include Hot Springs, Jinci, Screen Post, etc. The inscription written by Emperor Taizong for Jinci Temple is not only a precedent of calligraphy, but also a rare calligraphy tablet and a treasure of Jinci Temple in Taiyuan. The calligraphy of this monument is beautiful, vigorous and magnificent. The Name of Hot Springs is another masterpiece of Emperor Taizong.
The two kings of calligraphy come down in one continuous line but don't stick to the rules. They are graceful, graceful, graceful, elegant and beautiful, and the whole story is filled with the heroic spirit of the uninhibited founding emperor Longxing. In terms of strength and momentum, it is above Yu Shinan, Ou Yangxun and Chu Suiliang. Mr. qi gong praised this post: "it doesn't matter if you are ignorant or unfamiliar, because god is not in the village;" Yue Long tiger lying in hot spring hillock, three points is improper. "The later emperors are unparalleled.
