Extended data:
Ou Yangxun was born in Linxiang, Tanzhou (now Changsha, Hunan). He was a famous calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty and was once the Prince of Wales, so people called him "Ouyang Lvgeng".
Ou Yangxun's calligraphy enjoyed a high reputation in the Sui Dynasty. In the Tang Dynasty, Ou Yangxun was still teaching calligraphy in Hong Wen Pavilion. Ou Yangxun studied Wang Xizhi's calligraphy style in his early years.
Legend has it that he used a large sum of money to buy a map of Gui Zhi for Wang Xizhi's godson to learn Chinese characters, copying it day and night and studying hard. On another occasion, when he went out with Yu Shinan and saw a stone tablet written by Suo Jing, a calligrapher of the Jin Dynasty, he sat on the floor. He carefully observed and described the tablet for three days, which shows that Ou Yangxun has a strong interest in calligraphy.
