Bi calligraphy

Five Dynasties, Ten Countries and Five Dynasties and Ten Countries is a chaotic era. In just 60 years, the regime has changed and wars have continued. However, under such circumstances, there was a strange man who was promoted to a higher position in various regimes and finally lived for more than 80 years before he died. This man is Yang Ningshi. Yang Ningshi, whose name is Du Jing, was born in Guiji, an old farmer in Kansai, a Hongnong, and a Huayin, Shaanxi. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, he served as a doctor, and went through the Later Liang Dynasty, the Later Tang Dynasty, the Later Jin Dynasty, the Later Han Dynasty and the Later Friday Dynasty. Therefore, he is known as Yang in the world and has mastered the basic skills of surviving in troubled times. He often plays the fool, so he is also called Yang Fengzi and Yang Crazy. He likes writing poems and is good at calligraphy, among which cursive script is the best. He began to study Ou Yangxun and Yan Zhenqing, and then studied the brushwork of Wang Xizhi and Wang Xianzhi. After that, he broke the circle, simplified the complexity, changed the Tang method, from white to knot, all of which were refreshing and praised, and became a beautiful landscape in the process from "Tang Shangfa" to "Song Shangyi". His writing style is directed at the Northern Song Dynasty, and "Song Sijia" (that is, Su Shi, Huang Tingjian, Mi Fei and Cai Xiang) are all influenced by it. His representative works include Jiuhua Post, Ten Notes of Lu Hong Caotang, Immortal Living Method, Summer Hot Post and so on. Su Shi commented: "Self-respect, lack of willows, poor brushwork. Coupled with the decline of characters in the late Tang dynasty, literary talent swept the floor. Except Yan and Liu, only one person is a hero of condensed calligraphy. This is really the hero of the book, not lost by the times. Huang Tingjian went to Luoyang to see the ink on the temple wall. He said: "Yang's calligraphy is full of subtleties. When he painted with Wu Sheng (Wu Daozi), it was the second best in Romania. He also said, "Since the Jin Dynasty, it is rare to be like two kings, but Yan and Yang are like viceroy; Lu Gong's book is respected by many people today, while Shao Shi's book says it is good, but not very good. If you want to know Yang Zhishu, you should be like a horse with nine faces, and you can get it if you stay. " In short, in ancient Yang Ningshi, there were few calligraphers with famous names, amateur background and grassroots counterattack. For example, Yan Zhenqing, Ou Yangxun and others are officials from generation to generation, and Yang Ningshi is no exception. According to legend, Yang Ningshi is a descendant of Su Yang, a powerful minister and poet in the Sui Dynasty, and their ancestors were also important ministers in the Tang Dynasty. The father of Su Yang (stills), the King of Yue, was Yang She, a dutiful prime minister in the late Tang Dynasty. Zhu Wen, the first emperor of the Later Liang Dynasty, seized the throne through abdication in God bless four years (907), and it was Yang She who gave Tang Gaozong's seal to Zhu Wen. Submitting the imperial seal is not a good job, it is tantamount to betraying the country and seeking glory, and will be reviled by future generations. Yang Ningshi, the national seal at that time, was only in his twenties. Seeing that his father got such a job, he said bluntly: "Father, since the country has reached this stage, although it is at fault, aren't you afraid of being reviled after a thousand years by passing on the imperial seal to others and doing such a thing of betraying the country and seeking glory?" You'd better refuse. "So in a word, frighten Yang involved in a few days and nights didn't sleep well, because it was a critical period, Zhu Wen is an old minister of the Tang Dynasty, trying to exclude dissidents. If so, I'm afraid the Yang family will be hacked to death. See the appearance of his father in utter amazement, Yang Ningshi just know made a big mistake, lane is bad to the whole family have to put their lives on his this sentence, but fortunately, playing dumb, just in case. Tao Yue's Supplement to the History of the Five Dynasties said: "At that time, Taizu (Zhu Wen) was afraid that the ministers of the Tang Dynasty would do harm to himself, and people often visited the group for discussion, which brought great harm to the gentry and the people. (Yang) When he was involved in constant self-protection, he suddenly heard condensed words and said,' You ruined my family!' So people who seem depressed for days on end. Coagulation is afraid of its discharge, and now it is crazy, and people call it Yang crazy. "Fortunately, their conversation was not heard by outsiders, and Zhu Wen did it for Prime Minister Yang. Dad got a good job, and naturally entered the officialdom, and also got the title of "Yang Madman". Life is like a play, it all depends on acting, and "going crazy" is a skill. Playing crazy for the first time didn't help much, but it became the basic skill for Yang Ningshi to survive in the Five Dynasties. Yang Ningshi lived through five dynasties, namely, Houliang, Houtang, Houjin, Houhan and Houzhou. Kings in different periods gave Yang Ningshi a high position. But the more you often get, the higher the risk. For example, Yang Ningshi was in charge of the emperor's work of drafting letters in the later Tang Dynasty, which was a very dangerous job. One careless move angered the emperor, which was fatal; Then in the later Tang Dynasty, he was named assistant minister of the Ministry of War, in charge of military power. In this war-torn era of the Five Dynasties, the most important thing he did was to fight. When you are defeated, it is not a good job to be killed by the other side or beheaded by your own emperor. That is, the enviable higher vocational colleges on weekdays were all high-risk at that time. Therefore, Yang Ningshi turned "crazy and stupid" into the normal state, so that later, even if Yang Ningshi was really wrong, people thought he was crazy, and no one really shared his knowledge. In the late Jin Dynasty, Yang Ningshi, who once lived in Luoyang, retired to Luoyang for illness. There, he is like an old man who makes much ado about nothing and likes to criticize local things. When he speaks well, everyone respects him very much. He talked too much, and everyone thought he was "crazy" and nobody cared. Suddenly, Yang Ningshi has become a qualified actor. Yang's "Xiao Zhi of Calligraphy" is recorded in "History of Yang Ningshi": "Spiritual enlightenment, rich in literary algae, greatly promoted by the times." Smart as a child, Yang Ningshi can only display his talents in the world of calligraphy. Yang Ningshi's representative works include Jiu Hua Tie, Xia Re Tie, Immortal Living Method and so on. In his spare time, Yang Ningshi not only showed his superb calligraphy attainments, but also endowed his works with numerous "calligraphy wisdom". 1, after lunch in autumn, I wrote a piece of Little Blue Pavilion and Jiuhua Post of the Five Dynasties. From a distance, it is ethereal, but from a close distance, it is heavy. In the afternoon, I had a leek and mutton meal, and Yang Ningshi was full of comfort. I wrote the fifth line of the book Jiuhua Tie in the world. The original text of "Chihuahua Sticker" and "Chihuahua Sticker" is as follows: "Sleeping during the day is very popular and hunger is very serious. Suddenly I'm simple and honest. Give me a lesson. When a leaf announces beginning of autumn, it is the time when leek begins to show off its flavor and help itself gain weight. It is really a shame and a fullness. Ming muscle load reduction, I want to repair the form of government only observation. Sincerely. July 1 1 day, shape. " This is a letter describing that Yang Ningshi was very hungry in the afternoon. After eating fat sheep and leeks, he was satisfied. I am writing this article to thank my friends for the delicious leek. Part of the inscription "Jiuhua Post" by Qianlong has been covered with a large area of white cloth. In this context, the characters become ethereal, beautiful, elegant and peaceful, and seem to have lost their boldness. They are delicate and graceful with their pens, but they are different in peace. At first glance, they are natural and vivid, and they are completely "two kings". The patchwork white cloth and the unique combination of plain and moderate complement each other, and the author Xiaosan's leisurely mood is vividly on the paper. No matter from the calligraphy itself or the writing content, we can really feel the author's vague artistic conception. Part of Jiuhua Post Part of Jiuhua Post Part of the Second Part of Yanxia Post This is the same handwriting as Jiuhua Post, describing the hot summer and giving monks "crisp water". The content of "Summer Hot Post" is as follows: Condensation: It is best to wear hot clothes in summer and drink crispy honey water for a long time, that is, to get a throne. If your mouth is full of milk, crispness is not as good as it, (the next few lines are damaged) and illness (the next two lines are damaged). Summer Hot Post is a cursive script with 8 lines and 32 words, and it is also a letter written by Yang Ningshi. If "Summer Hot Post" partially said that the Five Dynasties limited Yang Ningshi's play, then above the letters, it was a world full of Yang Ningshi. Part of "Summer Hot Post" In "Summer Hot Post", Yang Ningshi's side put pen to paper, making the lines strong and decisive; In the second half, the knot suddenly flew away and the brushwork became vigorous and calm. The combination of the thirsty pen broke the gentle feeling left by the previous Jiuhua Tie, and was replaced by the shock and surprise brought by the violent line impact of the poem. This is Yang Ningshi, a master of calligraphy who writes with his pen. Summer Post Part Summer Post Part Summer Post Part Summer Post Part Summer Post Part Summer Post Part Summer Post Part Song Dynasty calligrapher Li Jianzhong once wrote a poem: "The withered fir is old with frost, and the pine smoke and musk coal are rainy and cold." I am also a born nerd. I went to the temple once and watched it again. "Everything is an illusion. The Immortal Living Method, a naughty old Yang Ningshi's Immortal Living Method, was a cursive script written by Yang Ningshi at the age of 76. Although it looks like a wild grass work, if you look closely, it is a cursive script that you can recognize every word. It is neither too wild nor too cautious. On the contrary, it seeks a different kind of interest in harmony and nature. The explanation of "The Immortal Living Method" is as follows: "Walk in the sitting and lying place and rub your ribs and abdomen with your hands; When the bosom friend is fast, the hand squats under the intestine; Sit at the waist, clench your fist on your back and rub your kidneys; I feel tired even if my family helps me; Never tired of it, day and night; After a long time, I gradually stepped into the road of immortals. " The immortal living method was created in 948, and the ink is now in the Palace Museum in Beijing, with 8 lines and 86 words. In the part of the immortal living method, the pen is calm, refreshing and dynamic, the cloth is patchy and white, the font is continuous, and the running script is smooth, which reflects a highly grassy structure and seems to have a unique charm; Slow, slow, but also shows its superb skills in controlling rhythm and rhythm. Yang Ningshi, who is close to ancient times, is still full of love for life, and his book style is full of smart charm. He used his exquisite calligraphy to teach him the method of fitness and health preservation, which was naive. At the end of the immortal living method part, Yang Ningshi, who is gifted and intelligent, was forced by the times to become a player and was "crazy" for his livelihood all his life; At the same time, he is also a geek honed in troubled times. Times suppressed his talent, but stimulated his pen power. In the writing world that belongs only to Yang Ningshi, he sometimes becomes a gentle Jiangnan woman, sometimes becomes a disheveled monk without clothes and shoes, and sometimes seeks the method of keeping in good health in the paradise. Yang Ningshi's calligraphy is unique, free from current habits, bold and based on discipline, innovation and rules. He directly drove the "two kings" into the hall, found the spirit and meaning of the traditional calligraphy style of the "two kings", broke through the shackles of "respecting the law" in the Tang Dynasty, conveyed the voice of "respecting the will", provoked the banner of advocating the calligraphy style in the Song Dynasty and pushed calligraphy forward.
