Ou Yangxun is really a brilliant writer. He is gifted in calligraphy, poetry and painting. At that time, people who laughed at Ou Yangxun were people with higher status than him. For example, Sun Changmowgli often laughs at Ou Yangxun's appearance. However, Ou Yangxun didn't choose to back down because Sun Chang Wuji was my uncle. Instead, he chose to write poems to counter Sun Chang Wuji. This also caused the concern of Emperor Taizong, who was afraid that Ou Yangxun would be retaliated by Sun Chang.
But we also see that Ou Yangxun is not afraid of some powerful forces. Ouyang Xuan did not feel inferior because of his ugliness. Emperor Taizong even criticized many officials for laughing at Ou Yangxun's appearance. Thus, Ou Yangxun is actually an informal person, and he doesn't feel inferior because of his appearance. Instead, he fought back with his outstanding talent in poetry and painting.
In fact, it can be seen from such a trivial matter that the literary atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty is actually very strong. Many people will choose to fight back with poetry, and there will be no abuse and personal struggle.
