Shen Song galloped in the ink field of poetry in the early Tang Dynasty, but he did not waste the gorgeous Qi Liang. If you follow Yue Pingwu's example, you should cast a golden statue of Chen Ziang.
Shen Song: Poets in the early Tang Dynasty: Shen Quanqi and Song Wenzhi. Calligraphy: refers to the field of poetry. Qi Liang: refers to the magnificent poetic style during the Qi Liang period in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. Quasi: follow and imitate. Pingwu, for example: During the Spring and Autumn Period, after helping Yueping Goujian destroy Wu, Fan Li resigned and lived in seclusion in the Five Lakes. Yue Ping ordered people to cast an image of Fan Li in gold and put it on the side of the seat for worship. Ziang: Chen Ziang, Apollo, was a poet in the early Tang Dynasty. He admired the wind of Han and Wei dynasties and despised the wind of Qi and Liang dynasties. His poems are fresh and natural, and he doesn't care about carving. Many poets in the prosperous Tang Dynasty were influenced by it.
A brief analysis of this poem's evaluation of Shen Quanqi and Song He in the early Tang Dynasty. Poetry in the early Tang Dynasty is basically a continuation of formalism literature in the Southern Dynasties. Palace poems are full of poetry and exquisite writing. Shen Quan and Wen summed up the creative experience of regular poetry since the Six Dynasties, and created the form of regular poetry, which was famous for a while and was of great significance to the development of modern poetry in the Tang Dynasty. Yuan Haowen affirmed their contribution and influence ("crossing the field of calligraphy"), but also criticized them for still not getting rid of Qi Liang's poetic style in poetry creation.
Yuan Haowen thought that Chen Ziang was the first poet to open up the atmosphere in the Tang Dynasty. Chen Ziang returned to elegance, advocated the Han and Wei styles and followed the Jian 'an tradition. With his own poetic theory and creative practice, he finally wiped out the influence of Qi and Liang Dynasties in the early Tang Dynasty for half a century, and ushered in the poetic creation in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, which was famous for its style and atmosphere. His theory of "good luck" and "Feng Gu" became the theoretical weapon for later generations to oppose the soft poetic style of formalism. Therefore, Yuan Haowen fully affirmed Chen Ziang's historical achievements, compared his innovative writing style with Fan Li's pingwu career, and thought that he should also cast a statue of Chen Ziang to show his contribution.
