Introduction: There are many emperors in history, including great heroes such as the Qin Emperor Han Wu and there are also emperors who do not know the reason. There were not many emperors with profound literary attainments.
There are only a few emperors in history who can rely on literary influence to circulate in the world, li Yu, the lord of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the other is the Northern Song Emperor Huizong.
These two have great similarities, such as Li Yu, the lord of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and Emperor Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty, who were both kings of the fallen country, and their literary attainments were not equal.
[1] The literary attainments of Emperor Huizong of Song
The calligraphy is superb.
Song Huizong as a literary and artistic youth, he is best at calligraphy, we know that the famous thin gold body in calligraphy is now created by Song Huizong.
Song Huizong's thin gold body can be passed down to this day and popularized by the public, which can be seen in the uniqueness of his calligraphy. Later generations have many imitations of The Song Huizong's thin gold body.
His calligraphy has reached the height of its own school, and compared with Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, it is no different. This can also be seen that Song Huizong has made sufficient efforts in this regard.
In addition to good calligraphy, Song Huizong is also good at brush strokes, and many of the paintings handed down by Song Huizong to this day have become priceless treasures, and Song Huizong's achievements in painting are also huge.
At that time, Song Huizong not only liked to paint himself, he also established the Hanlin Calligraphy and Painting Academy, and Song Huizong made painting a subject of the imperial examination.
This shows the importance that Emperor Huizong of Song attached to the creation of painting. In terms of painting, Song Huizong is the best at flower and bird painting, and Song Huizong's flower and bird paintings can not only be similar to shape but also divine.
This is very rare, and at the same time, Song Huizong also reached the peak of art in porcelain. After Emperor Huizong of Song, there was no longer such artistic porcelain as the Ru kiln of Emperor Huizong of Song.
[2] Li Yu, a young man of literature and art
Li Yu, the great talent of the Southern Tang Dynasty.
Speaking of Li Yu, what impressed us the most was his article "When is the Spring Flower and Autumn Moon of Yu Meiren", when I was a student, I was very fascinated by this beautiful word when I was learning this word.
Li Yu's achievements in literature and art were different from those of Emperor Huizong of Song, and Li Yu's achievements in words were the greatest, although only more than thirty words were handed down.
Basically, every time it's a masterpiece. When it comes to Li Yu's words, we must say why Li Yu's words are good, in addition to making people feel particularly comfortable to read.
Li Yu's words are particularly concise in language and at the same time very expressive. This is not easy for people who create literature.
As the saying goes, human feelings are articles, and Li Yu can show innocent feelings with such beautiful words and sentences, which shows how different his experience is.
In addition to his achievements in literature, Li Yu is also very good at calligraphy and painting, and Li Yu is good at calligraphy, and his calligraphy is called "Golden Wrong Knife" by the world, which shows the strong and powerful characteristics of his calligraphy.
[3] Mixed reviews
He is also a young man of literature and art, the king of the subjugated country.
Li Yu and Song Huizong were both literary and artistic youths, kings of the subjugated country, and the praise and depreciation of these two by later generations were different, and people praised Li Yu more and despised Song Huizong.
The reason for the emergence of this diametrically opposed state of public opinion is inseparable from their true state. Li Yu, as the king of the subjugated country, was passive.
Li Yu did not choose to sit still in the face of the attack of the powerful Song Dynasty, although Li Yu liked literature and art very much, but did not delay the governance of the country because of literature and art.
When the Song Dynasty army came to attack the Southern Tang, Li Yu actively responded to the battle, causing the Song army to take a year to break through the Later Tang, and the defeat of the Later Tang was inevitable.
Li Yu also did his best to obey the fate of heaven, after all, he did not tie his hands and grab it, from this point of view, Li Yu is not a dimwitted king, and people are more sympathetic to Li Yu's suffering.
Let's look at Song Huizong again, Song Huizong was originally a good hand, but he himself lost by strength, which is really infuriating. To put it bluntly, Emperor Huizong of Song was a loser.
In today's terms, Song Huizong is a clumsy disciple, arrogant and lascivious, needless to say, the Song Dynasty under the rule of Song Huizong in "Water Margin".
The depiction is vivid, and the common people are forced to go to Liangshan without a good life. Internationally, Emperor Huizong of Song also lost face due to his own weakness.
As a result, he was captured by foreign races and humiliated. Here it is not Song Huizong who is humiliated, it is the entire Central Plains who is being humiliated, just like Yue Fei said, "Jing Kang is ashamed, Yu Weixue, the courtiers hate, when will it be destroyed."
For such a faint and incompetent emperor as Song Huizong, and devoting all his energy to literature and art, posterity naturally gritted his teeth at Song Huizong, and it was inevitable that he would despise and belittle Song Huizong.
【Conclusion】
In short, the same literary and artistic youth, the king of the subjugation of the country, because Song Huizong and Li Yu are faint and corrupt, and the other is active and enterprising, so the eyes of the world are shining, and the praise and depreciation of them are completely different.
