The Er Wang system is a big concept. Broadly speaking, anyone who learns Er Wang's calligraphy belongs to the Er Wang system. However, almost all calligraphers do not say that they are not good at Er Wang. It is just a matter of emphasis. . Therefore, we have to narrow down the scope and talk about the calligraphers of the Erwang system who are relatively pure, or the calligraphers of the Erwang system recognized in the history of calligraphy. The historical order is as follows:
Before the Sui and Tang Dynasties: Wangmen calligraphers and The two kings are not closely related, because the two kings were the new style of calligraphy at that time, so we will only talk about the queen of the Wang family. The first person, Yang Xin, recorded in the history book "Buy the king and get the sheep, and you will not be disappointed." He knew that he must be a descendant of the two kings, but there is no written record, so he can only imagine.
At the turn of the Sui and Tang Dynasties: the first person was undoubtedly Zhiyong. Legend has it that he was the seventh-generation grandson of Wang Xizhi. The handwriting is still there, and you can see the "Zhencao Thousand Character Essay". Zhiyong's disciple Biancai is also of this type. If he is not as good as Zhiyong, it is okay not to mention it.
After entering the Tang Dynasty: Yu Shinan once studied under Zhiyong, so he belongs to this lineage; Chu Sui's good teacher Yu Shinan is also related. Ouyang Xun seems to have a stronger taste for Beibei, but he has studied famous masters by himself and observed his running script "Thousand Character Essay", and still does not lose the method of the two kings. Chu Suiliang, the master of Xue Ji, was said to "buy Chu and get Xue without losing his integrity". He was also one of the two kings. In short, in the Tang Dynasty, because Li Shimin, Emperor Shizong, admired Wang Xizhi, the trend of Wang Xi was unstoppable in the Tang Dynasty.
After the Song and Ming dynasties: Before the popularity of Northern Stele calligraphy in the Qing Dynasty, all calligraphers could be called the Erwang family. Only those who were famous for their stele techniques in the Qing Dynasty, such as Kang Youwei and Bao Shichen, could not do it. None of them can enter the Second King family.
Modern times: The famous masters of the Erwang lineage are Shen Yinmo, Bai Jiao and Xie Wuliang. The middle white banana has the best charm of the two kings.
