Chinese calligraphy is broad and profound, throughout the past five thousand years, calligraphy is more endless, such as Yan Zhenqing's brush dyeing and ink handed down the "Sacrifice nephew manuscript", "Duo Pagoda Induction Monument", "Magu Xian Tan" and other calligraphy masterpieces in the world, really can be described as a thousand words of gold, but not only appeared in the history of calligraphy masters, a word of thousands of gold is also in the Han traitor Zheng Xiaoxu to be fulfilled.
Zheng Xiaoxu, who was born in 1860 in Minhou, Fujian, was born in 1860, with the characters Su Kan and Su Gong and Taiyi. Because there is a Haizang Building in Shanghai, it is called "Zheng Haizang", and Zheng Xiaoxu was familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics at the age of 4, and when he was 22 years old, he passed the Fujian Township Examination Xieyuan, served as Li Hongzhang and Zhang Zhidong's staff, and successively served as the consul general of Osaka in Japan, the prime minister Yamen Zhangjing, and the Hunan envoy, but Zheng Xiaoxu was a veritable traitor.
Since the fall of the Qing Dynasty, Zheng Xiaoxu has had great hopes to live alone as the elder of the Qing Dynasty, and after the Xinhai Revolution, he lived by selling words, and in 1932, it was also the year when Zheng Xiaoxu fell into a traitor, this year Zheng Xiaoxu began to serve as the prime minister of Manchukuo and the chief of culture and education, but looking at zheng Xiaoxu's writings can refresh people's views of "words like people".
First of all, Zheng Xiaoxu's literary style, as we all know, one of the poetry schools of the Qing Dynasty period and the light body was famous in the literary and art circles at that time, and was sought after by many literati and inkers, and one of the advocates of the same light body was Zheng Xiaoxu, and wrote "Haizanglou Poetry Collection" and other these classics, and then in calligraphy, it should be said that Zheng Xiaoxu's words can really amaze everyone, so what degree can we see? His writings were often inscribed as inscriptions or plaques and were collected.
Even the emperor's holy will or edict at that time was written by Zheng Xiaoxu, which shows that the words written by Zheng Xiaoxu are naturally self-evident, such as the inscription on the right side of the "Royal Monument" built in the Lin Zexu Ancestral Hall in 1905, which is the true handiwork of Zheng Xiaoxu, after the fall of the Qing Dynasty at that time, Zheng Xiaoxu sold characters in the Haizang Building in Shanghai for a living, and it is also because of this period that Zheng Xiaoxu's calligraphy has grown greatly, and once reached the peak of his own calligraphy.
At that time, there was also a saying that "north is in southern Zheng", and the so-called "north in" is that the Kuomintang elder yu your right, southern Zheng is naturally Zheng Xiaoxu, but both of them, whether from fame or seniority, Zheng Xiaoxu is much higher than Yu Youren, which shows zheng xiaoxu's status in the book world at that time.
It is reported that each word of Zheng Xiaoxu is worth dozens of taels of silver, and it should be known that the monthly salary of professors in Qingbei at that time was only about one hundred and two, which shows how precious Zheng Xiaoxu's writing is. Since ancient times, inscription plaques have been a major way to support the façade, and it is also a tradition of major enterprises throughout history.
This also attracted the president of the Bank of Communications at that time, invited Zheng Xiaoxu to write an inscription for the Bank of Communications, but Zheng Xiaoxu did not regard himself as an outsider at all, and the opening was a word of a thousand oceans, and four were four thousand oceans, but it was really as Zheng Xiaoxu's will, and spent four thousand oceans to buy the four words "Bank of Communications".
On the other hand, the characters written by Zheng Xiaoxu are reported to have absorbed all the strengths of the calligraphy masters of that year, such as Yan Zhenqing, Su Dongpo, Ouyang Qing, and others, taking the length of a hundred families, and the words written by Zheng Xiaoxu are not rigid and solemn, but are interesting and well-practiced, and were once praised by the "circle people" at that time to "have a strong color, the fun of songxiu, and the atmosphere of excitement".
However, Zheng Xiaoxu still degenerated into a traitor, when Japan supported Puyi as a puppet in the northeast, Zheng Xiaoxu did not hesitate at all to approve of the Japanese approach, and even once put his two sons Zheng Chui and Zheng Yu to serve the Japanese, but Zheng Xiaoxu still failed to end a good end, and finally was removed by the Japanese, it is said that he may have been poisoned, but it has not been confirmed, but Zheng Xiaoxu's character is still despised by the world.
