Chapter 058: Art Garden Corner (13)
Wang Jixin was very surprised when he heard it, but he didn't expect that in this deep mountain, there were still people who could play Go.
Then I saw that the lights were dark in both rooms, and that they were not together, but in the same room; How to play this chess?
was wondering, the daughter-in-law of the East House said, "I take the East Five South 9 Road."
Granny Westinghouse said, "I should be East 5 South 12 Road".
Wang Jixin knew that they were playing blind chess, so he quickly took out a pen and paper to record the chess games that his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had said; Wang Jixin found that the moves of his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were some strange moves that he had never seen before, and when he went to the 36th move, his mother-in-law said: "You have lost 9 ways in this game of chess, don't play it again!" ”。
The daughter-in-law replied after a while, "Yes, we won't go down." ”
The next morning, after the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law got up, Wang Jixin knew that the level was very high because he heard them play chess last night, so he respectfully asked them for advice.
When the mother-in-law saw that Wang Jixin was sincere, she taught him more than a dozen changes.
Wang Jixin still wanted to learn more, and the old woman said: "As long as you know this, you can become an invincible master in the world!" ”
After saying this, the house and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were gone, and Wang Jixin knew that he had met the immortals.
Later, Wang Jixin often took out the 36 moves played by his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to figure out and study; I couldn't figure it out.
Liu Min listened to Miss Wen'er's bizarre speech, so he quietly stood behind Huang Shigong and Wang Jixin to watch the battle; The two were fighting in the middle of the battle, and they didn't even notice that there were people watching behind them.
Liu Min was not interested in Go for a while, so he left Qifeng to go to Shangshu Peak and Painting Peak......
The calligraphy peak and painting peak of Wuzhi Mountain also gather calligraphy masters Wang Xizhi and Yan Zhenqing from the past and present, and Yan Liben, a genius in the painting world, and an elite.
Yan Liben's "Step Diagram" can be described as a unique painting world, and it is recorded in the 14-character Tibetan poem on the stone tablet: "The first step of the painting scroll is seven steps!" ”
Yan Li's "Walking Diagram" is also called Seven Steps, but it is a pity that Zhang Zeduan, the author of "Qingming Riverside Picture" that Liu Min admires the most, is not among them.
It is no wonder that it is now the eighth year of Kaibao of Taizu of the Great Song Dynasty, and Zhang Zeduan is a person from the era of Huizong of the Song Dynasty, and he can only appear more than a hundred years late; But Liu Min unexpectedly saw a generation of empress Wu Zetian.
Liu Min really didn't expect that Wu Zetian was still a calligrapher; When Liu Min, Cai Wenji, and Wen'er gathered to stare at Wu Zetian, the empress was writing a long scroll in the flying dragon; Many people gathered around her to watch and praise; Extraordinary, a little flattering minister.
Liu Min did not step forward, but stared at Cai Wenji and Wen'er from a distance; Cai Wenji took the opportunity to introduce Wu Zetian's calligraphy skills to Liu Min.
Wu Zetian's name is 曌 (zhao), and the word 曌 was invented by Wu Zetian himself; There are few people who can invent writing in Chinese history except Cangjie, but Wu Zetian is a wonder.
When Cai Wenji said this, Liu Min interjected: "In the history of Chinese civilization, we can never forget these people: Cangjie created Chinese characters, so that civilization can be precipitated; Li Si unified Chinese characters so that civilization could flow; Bi Yi invented movable type printing, allowing civilization to spread to every corner of the world; Wang Xuan let Chinese characters say goodbye to paper and pen, lead and fire, and brought Chinese character culture into a new era. ”
Cai Wenji and Miss Wen'er were dumbfounded when they heard Liu Min say this, the two of them knew Cangjie and Li Yao; But I don't know Bi Sheng and Wang Xuan.
Bi Sheng's invention of letterpress printing was a matter of Song Renzong's Qingli period, 70 years later than Kaibao; Wang Xuan is a native of the 21st century and invented the laser system phototypesetting of Chinese characters; It has created a new era of Chinese character printing, and completely transformed the lead printing technology that has been used for hundreds of years.
Liu Min saw that Cai Wenji and Miss Wen'er didn't know who Bi Sheng and Wang Xuan were, and looked at each other; immediately quipped: "This is what the little girl listened to Grandpa Huo, just talking!" ”
Cai Wenji didn't care when she saw that Liu Min was talking nonsense, stretched her neck and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, picked up the previous words and continued to nag.
Wu Zetian is a native of Wenshui in Bingzhou, and the daughter of the Shangshu Wushi of the Ministry of Industry in the early Tang Dynasty; She was 67 years old when she became emperor, and she was one of the longest-lived emperors at the age of 82; She was also the first female emperor in Chinese history.
Wu Zetian was a female poet and outstanding politician, not only proficient in historical poetry but also good at calligraphy; Her flying white script and cursive script were famous in the Tang Dynasty and even in later generations.
The so-called "flying white" is calligraphy with the characteristics of a trace of white in the strokes, which is extremely difficult, but it looks extremely elegant.
Wu Zetian once wrote out the names of ministers in Feibai Book and gave them them, and many ministers were beautiful; But you have to admit that Wu Zetian is really a strange person, and his calligraphy attainments can be seen here!
Wu Zetian left behind not much calligraphy information, there is the title of "Recommended Blessing Temple Tablet", for the "Chongfu Temple Inscription", only "Shengxian Prince Tablet" is Wu Zetian personally wrote and wrote the inscription engraved by Dan.
This stele was engraved in June of the second year of the Wuzhou Shengli (699 AD), and was stored in the Xianjun Temple of Wushan Mountain, Yanshi County, Henan Province; There are 34 lines of cursive script, each line of 66 characters; There is a flying white book tablet.
The stele is engraved with Wu Zetian's poem "Wandering Immortals", which was made by Wu Zetian when he was 76 years old; The calligraphy of the stele is Xue Yaozheng's calligraphy.
There are also the inscriptions of Xue Ji, Zhong Shaojing and others in the stele yin, and their calligraphy and handwriting are also gorgeous, and they are vigorous.
Because Wu Zetian loves calligraphy, good calligraphy is listed as an important condition for entering the scholar; In such a political situation, many calligraphers quickly appeared, such as: Lu Cambodia, He Zhizhang, Sun Guoting, Li Yong, Wang Zhijing, Xue Yao, Jia Yingfu, Han Jingyang, Xu Qiaozhi, Wang Shaozong, Zhong Shaojing, etc.
As soon as Cai Wenji finished introducing Wu Zetian's calligraphy characteristics, she saw two wrestler-looking people walking up to Liu Min and asked, "You are the real phoenix lady Liu Min?" ”
Liu Min was stunned, dumbfounded and didn't know how to respond, Wen'er picked up the words and pointed at Liu Min and said, "She is my master Zhenfeng Niangniang!" ”
The two wrestler-looking people heard Miss Wen'er say this, and respectfully bowed to Liu Minxing, and said, "Zhenfeng Niangniang, then the Emperor of the Great Sage will summon you!" ”
Liu Min was dumbfounded: Wu Zetian knew that the little girl's name was Liu Min, and he wanted to summon him, Liu Min stared at Lian Lux and did not express his position, but pondered Wu Zetian's political achievements and bad deeds when he was the emperor.
Wu Zetian was the first person in history to dare to eat crabs and become a female emperor, during his reign, he attached importance to agricultural production, selected talents exceptionally, improved the imperial examination system, and promoted and reused officials from the Shu nationality; After the reign of Emperor Taizong Zhenguan of the Tang Dynasty, the second prosperous dynasty in the history of the Tang Dynasty, the political, economic and cultural development continued.
However, the evaluation of the empress is incompatible, and the first point of view is negative.
The negative point of view is that Wu Zetian is the chicken Si Chen, molesting the queen, cruel and violent, yin owl is easy to kill, appointing cool officials, and absurd. The overall evaluation is almost overwhelmingly that she deceived trust by means of sycophancy, became the queen, controlled the power of the court and cultivated party henchmen; Establish a group of traitors in the palace and use duplicitous methods to expand power and eliminate dissidents. appointing cool officials and implementing a policy of terror; Worship religion and fool the people; The loss of the four towns of Anxi endangered the unification of the country. It is said that Wu Zetian's ascension to power was a reversal of history, a comprehensive regression, and the arrival of the heyday of the Tang Dynasty was delayed by 30 or 50 years compared with the two Han Dynasty. Wu Zetian has had no merit and is a historical figure who has been denied......
