What does honesty mean? Good conduct, integrity and selflessness. Because lotus leaves mud but is not stained, people often use lotus as a metaphor for a person who is open-minded and impartial. Being honest, calligraphy and painting is also a way to express honesty and promote social integrity.
Yu Qian:
1. At the beginning of orthodoxy, Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong and Yang Pu presided over the cabinet, and all attached great importance to Yu Qian. What Yu Qian invited was written in the morning and approved in the evening, all sponsored by Sanyang. After the death of "Sanyang", eunuch Wang Zhen monopolized the power, became arrogant and took bribes unscrupulously. Hundreds of officials rushed to offer money for flattery.
2. During the court meeting, people who come to see Wang Zhen must offer one hundred and twenty pieces of silver; If you can offer 1,200 pieces of silver, you can only serve food and wine and go home drunk. Moreover, Yu Qian didn't bring any gifts every time he went to Beijing to play. Someone advised him: "If you can't send gold and silver treasures, can't you bring some local products?" Yu Qian smiled smartly, shook his sleeves and said, "Only the breeze".
His poems are as follows:
It can only be extracted from the deep mountains after being struck by thousands of hammers. It regards the burning of the burning fire as a very common thing. From Yu Qian's Ode to Lime in Ming Dynasty.
Limestone can only be mined from deep mountains after a lot of work, and it takes the burning of blazing fire as a very common thing.
