Chu Yunqiu looked at the signature and seal on the picture scroll, and his heart moved, this person's attainments in this kind of font are unsurpassed in the world, because this kind of font is very famous-thin gold body.

And the author of this painting is none other than Emperor Daojun - Zhao Ji of Song Huizong.

Song Huizong's mediocrity in politics is not mentioned for the time being, he loves art, and during his reign, he raised the status of painters to the highest position in Chinese history.

At that time, Song Huizong established the Hanlin Painting and Calligraphy Academy, that is, the court painting academy.

Other emperors are all imperial examinations to select talents, generally examine the four books and five classics, the way of governing the country, but Song Huizong has a unique style, using painting as an examination method for promotion to the imperial examination, and using poetry as the topic every year.

However, because of Song Huizong's actions, many good stories have been created.

For example, in the "Ancient Tibetan Temple in the Mountains", many people's first thought is that the temple is deep in the mountains, and the ancient pine cornices are flying, but the first place winner did not draw any houses, only a monk who carried water at the mountain stream at the foot of the mountain.

Another topic is more absolute, for "stepping on flowers to return to horseshoe incense", everyone has used their brains, some people focus on "stepping on flowers", horses galloping on flowers, some people focus on "horses", painted horses very gods, but the first place did not paint any flowers, only painted a person riding a horse, there are butterflies flying around the horse's hooves in the picture, this person is concentrated on the word "incense".

Incense is ethereal, but the painter uses butterflies around the horse to concretize the fragrance, which shows that his mind is flexible.

All these have greatly stimulated the development of the artistic conception of Chinese calligraphy and painting.

It can be said that during the tenure of Song Huizong, the way of calligraphy and painting in China developed to its peak.

It is rumored that the most famous national treasure painting in China, "The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival", is also related to this emperor of calligraphy and painting. After Zhang Zeduan completed this long scroll of history that celebrated the prosperity of the Taiping Dynasty, he first presented it to Huizong of the Song Dynasty.

Song Huizong thus became the first collector of this painting. As a master of calligraphy and painting in Chinese history, Song Huizong loved this painting, and used his famous "thin gold body" calligraphy to inscribe the five words "Qingming Riverside Map" on the picture, and put on the double dragon seal.

Song Huizong's original "thin gold body" calligraphy is unique in the world. To this day, it is believed that no one has been able to surpass it.

Thin gold calligraphy, tall and beautiful, elegant and sharp, even people who don't understand calligraphy at all, will feel excellent after reading it.

In the Song Dynasty Huizong after more than 800 years. So far, no one has been able to reach his height, and in the world of calligraphy and painting, he can be called "the first person in ancient and modern times".

Chu Yunqiu understood that the font in front of him was a thin gold body, tall and beautiful, elegant and sharp. There is an indescribable beauty between the words, like a peerless dancer, dancing there, and like a peerless swordsman, swinging a long sword there.

It sounds paradoxical, how can it appear on one font, but it does appear on one font, and there is no sense of contradiction.

Chu Yunqiu couldn't help but think of a person, a person who left a great name in Chinese history. Although she is a woman, and she is also a dancer, but the woman does not let her eyebrows, she is - Aunt Gongsun.

Gongsun Auntie is the first dancer in the Tang Dynasty, good at dancing swords, shocking the world with her dancing posture, and famous for dancing swords.

Gongsun Lady perfectly blended sword and dance, building a bridge between the two cultural peaks in Chinese history.

The grass saint Zhang Xu saw the dancing posture of Gongsun Auntie, and depicted a wonderful Danqing, which was passed down to future generations. The poet saint Du Fu saw the dancing posture of Gongsun Auntie, and wrote "Sword Weapon Xing", which was popular and painted Saint Wu Daozi. Appreciate the dance of Gongsun Auntie, and appreciate the way of using the pen.

In the past, there was a beautiful woman Gongsun, and a sword dance moved in all directions.

The spectators are depressed like mountains, and the heavens and the earth are low for a long time.

Huo Ruyi shot nine sunsets, like a group of emperors and dragons.

Come like thunder to restrain anger, and let it be like the river and sea condensing the light.

The lips and sleeves are lonely. In the evening, there were disciples who spread the fragrance.

The beauty of Linying is in the White Emperor, and the wonderful dance of this song is promising.

・・・・・・

Song Huizong's "thin gold body" is like the sword dance of Gongsun Auntie, which perfectly blends softness and rigidity.

Chu Yunqiu looked at the picture scroll in front of him, and directly above the picture scroll, the name of the entire picture scroll was written - "Yellow Oriole Singing Cui Tu".

In the lower right corner of the scroll, the bell is printed with more than a dozen red badges, including "Treasure of Xuanhe", "Shuanglong Small Seal" and so on, all of which tell the vicissitudes of time and history.

Chu Yunqiu looked at the marks on the scroll, stretched out his hand, and gently stroked it on the scroll.

The scroll is very well framed, and from the outside, it looks like it is a little worn out, without any flaws, and is in very good condition.

Chu Yunqiu rolled up the scroll, put it into a log, and put it in a bag of brocade.

Chu Yunqiu looked at the remaining four logs, he had no patience to look at them one by one, he wanted to disassemble all the four logs to see what kind of pictures were inside, and which one of their authors was.

But after opening it, Chu Yunqiu found that he had guessed wrong, and he was very wrong, among the remaining four logs, there was not a single scroll.

Inside the first two logs, there are two volumes of calligraphy masterpieces, and their owners, each of them is not ordinary, one of them is a calligraphy masterpiece of the grass saint - Zhang Xu, on the scroll, Chu Yunqiu can't see what is written at all.

The pen walks the dragon and snake, the dragon flies and the phoenix dances, and I can't understand it at all.

Chu Yunqiu frowned, with a confused look, what is this written, Chu Yunqiu looked at it for a long time, and recognized a total of three words, one "zhi" character, one "ten" character, and one word is the word "one", and Chu Yunqiu is not sure if it is right or not.

Wild grass, worthy of wild grass, the grass makes people can't understand what is written, in ancient and modern times, only Zhang Xu can grass to such a point.

Chu Yunqiu rubbed his eyes, there was no way, his eyes hurt when he saw it.

Chu Yunqiu put the scroll away, let this thing be read by professionals, he can't understand what is written at all.

The author of the other volume of calligraphy is also a big man, and it is Cai Jing, the minister of power in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Putting aside Cai Jing's character, if we only talk about his calligraphy, it has definitely had a long-standing impact on the history of Chinese calligraphy.

Although Cai Jing has a bad reputation and "treacherous character", Cai Jing's calligraphy is definitely "a generation of everyone", and the calligraphy carries everyone's style, and it is precisely because of his calligraphy that he will be appreciated by Song Huizong, and the official worships the prime minister, becoming a famous minister in Chinese history.

The Northern Song Dynasty had the right to minister Cai Jing, and the Southern Song Dynasty had the right to minister Qin Hui, both of which were very famous, but Cai Jing had an achievement that Qin Hui couldn't catch up with, that is, calligraphy.

Cai Jing's calligraphy is admired by many calligraphers and collected by many calligraphy enthusiasts, which is not unreasonable.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, there were four major calligraphers of "Su, Huang, Mi, and Cai", among which Cai refers to Cai Jing, but some people think that Cai Jing is "treacherous and evil", so he changed it to Cai Xiang. Cai Jinggong calligraphy, at the beginning of the year with his younger brother Cai Bian to learn Cai Xiang calligraphy, in the Jin non-commissioned officer awarded Qiantang County Lieutenant because of Shenzong's love for Xu Hao calligraphy, at that time scholars have learned it, Cai Jing also and Su Shi who was relegated to Qiantang to learn Xu Hao calligraphy, and later learned Shen Chuanshi, Ouyang Xun, and changed to learn "two kings".

It can be said that Cai Jing has followed many calligraphers and learned the calligraphy of many ancestors, and finally learned from the strengths of all families and became self-contained.

His calligraphy is charming, the words are heroic, happy and calm, and have a unique style, which is advocated by the sea.

Cai Jing's calligraphy art has the characteristics of being charming and heroic, happy and calm, which can reflect the aesthetic taste of calligraphy of "Shangyi" in the Song Dynasty, so it enjoyed a good reputation at that time, and there were many people who learned his calligraphy from the court and the opposition.

Yuan Tao Jiayi's "Book History Meeting" once quoted a commentator at the time as saying; "Its words are strict and not informal, easy but not outside the rules, the book is like a crown sword, and it is discussed on the temple; The book is like a noble son, high-spirited, and brilliant; The crown of big characters occupies the present, and there are few matches. ”

It is very pertinent to reflect Cai Jing's status in the art of calligraphy at that time.

Legend has it that when people talked about his calligraphy, the words used were often "crowned for a while", "no one is out of the right", and even Mi Fu, who was very arrogant at the time, once said that his calligraphy was not as good as Cai Jing.

And the calligraphy in Chu Yunqiu's hand is Cai Jing Cai Xiang's, in addition to Cai Jing's own bell seal, there are also Song Huizong and others' bell seals and inscriptions.

Chu Yunqiu looked at the calligraphy on the scroll, which really gave people a feeling of enjoyment. It is said that words are like people, Chu Yunqiu can't understand, how can a person who can write such good-looking words have such a bad character?

And the things in the remaining two logs really surprised Chu Yunqiu, he never thought that it would be this.
