Zhao Mengfu's unique brush calligraphy picture Zhao Mengfu (1254-1322), alias Song Xue Taoist, alias Goulpeau, Water Mirror Palace Taoist, etc. Xing Wu, China (now Huzhou, Zhejiang) is a descendant of the Song family. Yuan Dynasty bureaucrats, painters and calligraphers. His wife is Guan Daosheng, a painter and poet in Yuan Dynasty. Grandfather of Wang Meng, a painter in Yuan Dynasty.
Zhao Mengfu's meticulous calligraphy works reached the 23rd year of Yuan Dynasty (1286). Cheng Jufu, the imperial adviser of the Yuan Dynasty, was invited to visit the Song Dynasty minister who lived in seclusion in the south of the Yangtze River, and introduced Zhao Mengfu to Kublai Khan in Yuan Shizu. Kublai Khan was very happy to see that Zhao Mengfu was brilliant and radiant, just like a fairy middleman, and let him sit on the right side of Ye Cheng and Ye Li. At that time, the imperial court had just set up Shangshu Province, and ordered Zhao Mengfu to draft letters for promulgation. Kublai Khan praised after reading the imperial edict:? Say what I have to say in my heart. ? The imperial court called hundreds of officials to the punishments department to discuss the formulation of criminal law. It is believed that anyone who steals more money than 200 yuan should be regarded as a capital crime. Zhao Mengfu thinks that the punishment is too heavy, because the banknote law has depreciated sharply in the decades since it was founded, and it is not enough to use devalued banknotes to decide people's life and death. Some people think that he is young and a southerner, and he doesn't understand the national conditions of the Yuan Dynasty. He was accused of opposing the conviction of paper money in order to hinder the popularization of paper money. Zhao Mengfu also rightfully retorted:? Criminal law is a matter of life and death and must be weighed separately. I was asked to participate in the deliberation, and I dare not say nothing. You are unreasonable and want to use force to suppress people. This is no good! ? The man was rendered speechless. Kublai Khan tried to reuse Zhao Mengfu, but someone stopped him.
Zhao Mengfu opens books, everyone.
