How did the ancients praise others for "you are so talented"?

Throughout the ages, everyone loves talents. Talented people will be praised and envied at any time. And the ancients boasted that people were talented, far more colorful and elegant than "You are too talented" in Zhao Benshan's sketch. Let's list one or two below, and enjoy them with * * *. The most talented is Cao Zhi's "Talented of Eight Fights" because Xie Lingyun, a poet in the Southern Song Dynasty, once said, "There is only one stone in the world, and Cao Zijian monopolizes eight fights. I have to fight, and the world is divided into one battle. " Cao Zhi, the word Zijian, was named King Chen before his death, and posthumous title thought after his death, so he became king after his death. His literary talent was highly valued at that time and later generations. Therefore, while being conceited, Xie Lingyun spoke highly of Cao Zhi. Later generations called this outstanding scholar "a man of great talent" or "a man of eight fights". In the Tang Dynasty, Li Shangyin said in "Alas": "Fu Fei was worried about sitting in the pavilion of knowing heaven and exhausted his eight talents." Tang Xukui said in "Offering Assistant Minister Yang Neihan": "Keep your mouth shut in warm summer, and give me the palace words eight times." Sadly, Jiang Yan, a talented Jiang Lang writer in the Southern Dynasties, was brilliant when he was young. He was a famous writer and his poems were highly praised at that time. His representative works "Hate Fu" and "Bie Fu" are beautiful and have been circulated for some time. However, with the growth of age, his articles declined rapidly, his poems were unremarkable, his writing dried up, his inspiration dried up, and he was regarded as the only talent in Jiang Lang. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a book called The Story of Dai Ping: Liu Xiu, Guangwu Emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, liked to talk about classics. On the first day of the first month, hundreds of officials who can speak classics heckled each other. Anyone who argues about the loser in the moral sense gives his seat to the winner. Dai Zong, a waiter, won again and again because he was familiar with classics, eloquent and eloquent, occupying more than 50 seats in a row. Later generations called this kind of talent who is good at verbal warfare "grabbing seats." In the Tang Dynasty, it was recorded in "The Gold Capture" and "The Romance of Sui and Tang Dynasties". Wu Zetian once ordered his ministers to write poems at the Youlong Gate in Luoyang, and the first winner won a robe. Zuo's "Oriental Autumn Poetry" was written at the beginning, and Wu Zetian presented it with a brocade robe. A few days later, Song's poems were also successful, and Wu Zetian praised them greatly, thinking that Song's poems were higher than Oriental Autumn, which made people recapture the brocade robe from Oriental Autumn and give it to Song. Later generations used "golden talents" as a metaphor for people with outstanding talents. There is a sentence in Gao Qi's "Xie Ciyi" in the Ming Dynasty, "I was deeply influenced by Zetu, but I was ashamed of not winning the gold medal". The praise for female talent is "eyebrow sweeping", that is, women draw eyebrows. Xue Tao, a talented woman in Tang Dynasty, became an accomplished poetess at that time with her outstanding talent and beauty, as well as her harmony with the poems and songs of the literati at that time, and was called an eyebrow-sweeping genius. Wang Jian, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote a poem "Sending a Book to Xue Tao to School Shu": "It is better to manage how much talent you have." Wu Zao, a poetess in the Qing Dynasty, also wrote in her poem: "As long as I sweep my eyebrows and insist that I am crazy, I will be accepted by jade people." Xie Daowen, a talented woman in the Jin Dynasty, is also famous for Yong Xu Cai. Xie An, an important minister in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, collected elegant collections of various ethnic groups and talked with his brothers, sons and nephews about literary theory. It just snowed heavily, and Xie Gong suddenly became interested and asked everyone, "What are the plans for Snow?" Daoyun's brother Xie Lang replied, "The difference between sprinkling salt and air can be done." Xie Daowen went on to say, "If the catkins were not due to the wind." Xie An was amazed at this. Later people called it "Xu Xu Cai". No wonder she married Wang Ningzhi, the son of Wang Xizhi, a book sage. She felt wronged and complained, "I didn't expect Wang Lang!" In addition, those who describe quick thinking have the talent of "leaning on the horse to wait for the generals"; It is "overwhelming Bai Yuan" to praise people's poetic works for surpassing the famous artists at that time; Praise those who are knowledgeable and talented, that is, "Shandong cuisine is like the sea, Pan cuisine is like the river", and so on. The ancients loved talents and did not hesitate to praise them. The words of praise were unconventional, novel and unique. In contrast, the buzzword "You are so talented" that we are introducing into fashion seems a bit dull and vulgar. It is an ancient miracle that an actor who sings duet can be fooled into a great artist!
