Who is the Eastern Jin Dynasty known as Wang Daling?

Wang Xianzhi, a calligrapher in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, was called "Wang Daling".

Wang Xianzhi (344-386) was the seventh son of Wang Xizhi, the son-in-law of Sima Yu, a native of Jin, and the father-in-law of Sima Yu, a native of Jin 'an. Following in his father's footsteps, Wang Xianzhi also became a calligrapher, painter and poet.

The theory of "Wang Daling" comes from Wang Xianzhi's Zeng Guan to Zhong Shuling. In order to distinguish himself from Wang Min, Wang Xianzhi was called "Da Ling". After Wang Xianzhi's death, Wang Min also wrote a preface to the book. At that time, people called Wang Xianzhi "Wang Daling" and Wang Min "Wang Xiaoling".

Wang Xianzhi's works handed down from ancient times include the cursive script "Duck Head Pill Post" and "Mid-Autumn Post", all of which were copied by later generations. Emperor Qianlong collected Wang Xizhi's Sunny Snow Post, Wang Xianzhi's Mid-Autumn Post and Wang Xun's Yuan Bo Post, so he named his study "Sanxi Hall".

On one occasion, Huan Wen asked Wang Xianzhi to write on a fan. Wang Xianzhi wrote with a brush, and suddenly the pen fell on the fan, polluting the words. Wang Xianzhi turned the ink into a dark horse, which was very beautiful.

Wang Xianzhi slept in the study all night, and a group of thieves broke into the room and stole everything in the room. Wang Xianzhi said slowly, "Steal, this green carpet is a relic of my ancestors. Please leave only this carpet. " The thief ran away in panic.

3. the reflection of mountains and rivers.

Wang Xianzhi said, "When you walk on a shady road, the mountains and water complement each other, making people dazzled and invisible. If it is the turn of autumn and winter, it will be even more unforgettable. "

4. The two kings compete for hegemony

Wang Huizhi and Wang Xianzhi used to sit in the same room when a fire broke out in front of them. Wang Huizhi hurried away, even had no time to wear clogs; However, Wang Xianzhi looked at An Yang, called his entourage slowly, and helped him go out again, as usual. From this matter, the world judges whether the two kings are good-looking or not.
