Wang Xianzhi is the seventh son of Wang Xizhi, a great calligrapher in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. He was smart and studious since childhood. He began to learn calligraphy when he was seven or eight years old, and he learned from his father.
On one occasion, Wang Xizhi saw that Xianzhi was absorbed in practicing calligraphy, so he quietly went behind and suddenly reached out to draw the brush in Xianzhi's hand. Xianzhi held the pen firmly and was not drawn off. Wang Xizhi was very happy and praised: "This son will be famous again." Xiao Xian felt smug after listening to it.
On another occasion, a friend of Wang Xizhi asked Wang Xianzhi to write on the fan, and Wang Xianzhi wrote with a brush. Suddenly, the pen fell on the fan, polluting the words. A small gift was a brainwave, and a calf was lifelike on the fan. In addition, people are full of praise for his calligraphy and painting, and the small contribution has fostered pride. The parents who gave it were thoughtful when they saw this scene ...
One day, Xiao Xianzhi asked his mother Xi, "I just need to write it for another three years, right?" Xi shook his head. "Five years of head office?" Xi shook his head again. Xiao Xian was in a hurry and said to Xi, "How long do you think it will take?" "You have to remember that after writing these 18 jars of water in the courtyard, your words will be strong, flesh and blood, and you will stand straight and stand firm." When I turned around, my father stood behind him.
Wang Xianzhi refused to accept it and said nothing. He gritted his teeth and practiced for another five years, showing his father a lot of written words, hoping to hear a few words of praise. Who knows, Wang Xizhi shook his head one by one. When the word "big" was lifted, my father showed a satisfied expression, filled in a dot under the word "big" casually, and then returned all the manuscripts to the dedication.
Xiao Xian's heart was still not satisfied, and she showed all the calligraphy to her mother and said, "I practiced for another five years, and I practiced it completely according to my father's words. Look carefully, what is the difference between my father's and mine? " Xi really looked at it carefully for three days, and finally pointed to the point added by Wang Xizhi under the word "big" and sighed and said, "My son has worn out three cylinders of water, but only one point is like Xi."
Wang Xianzhi was discouraged and said weakly, "It's difficult! If this continues, when can we have good results? " Seeing that his arrogance had disappeared, Xi encouraged him to say, "Son, as long as you work hard, there is no river you can't cross or mountain you can't climb. As long as you keep practicing like these years, you will certainly achieve your goal! " Wang Xianzhi was deeply encouraged after listening to it, and kept on practicing. Everything comes to him who waits. Wang Xianzhi used up 18 vats of water in practicing < P > and made great progress in calligraphy.
Later, Wang Xianzhi's handwriting reached the level of penetrating the back of the paper and perfection. His handwriting was juxtaposed with Wang Xizhi's and was called "Two Kings".
