The second episode of "Dreamland" takes Zhao Yao, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, as the main narrative thread, connects the historical memories of the famous painters Wang Ximeng, Zhang Zeduan and the outstanding lyricist Li Qingzhao, recreates the urban grand scenery and humanistic spirit of the Song Dynasty, and leads the audience to appreciate the vigorous artistic charm contained in traditional oriental aesthetics.
An artist of the past and the present
Romantic and uninhibited emperor
The gears of fate rolled forward, and overnight, Zhao Yao, the duanwang who lived a rambling life, was pushed onto the dragon chair and became the eighth emperor of the Song Dynasty. His artistic attainments are extremely high, advocating "Taoism" and the tradition of etiquette, attaching importance to mental cultivation, loving poetry and song, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and being extremely sophisticated in the use of instruments. At this time, the Northern Song Dynasty was highly prosperous, with tiles, restaurants and teahouses, and non-stop songs, all of which were recorded in Zhang Zeduan's "Qingming River Map" and Meng Yuanlao's "Tokyo Dream Record".
Zhao Tuo loved painting and calligraphy, and personally managed the Hanlin Picture Academy, recruiting hidden folk talents, including 18-year-old Wang Ximeng. In the film, Zhao Tuo personally instructed Wang Ximeng to paint the famous work "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains", which used freehand techniques to render the majesty of the infinite rivers and mountains, opening up a new "realm" of landscape painting art. Looking back on Zhao Tuo's life, he has personally experienced the prosperity of the city, seen amazing paintings, written a very personal thin gold body, and fired an invincible azure porcelain, and the aesthetic development of the Song Dynasty is also due to his march towards a new historical peak.
The bustling capital city
The spiritual home of the other shore is like a dream
As emperor, Zhao Was diligent. He observed the people's feelings, cared for the people, and even if he was far away in the deep palace, he also had to feel the fireworks in the world, which directly promoted the early food delivery service in the Song Dynasty. At that time, the capital city was full of vitality, gold and silver and colored flowers were endlessly traded, and under the fragrant trees, the four fields were like street markets. In order to share a happy generation with the subjects of the world, he implemented a set of social welfare policies and established nursing homes, orphanages, welfare homes, and public hospitals similar to those in modern society, which had a far-reaching impact on future generations.
In the seventh year of Xuanhe, the Jin soldiers were near Bieliang, exiled to the bitter cold northern region of Zhao Yao, when they bowed in the direction of the Northern Song Palace and the Ancestral Ancestral Temple, they could only think of it from a distance. He has been brave, hardworking, persistent, on the basis of Wang Anshi's new law to introduce a systematic school system, but also suggested that medical, arithmetic and other technical courses into the management of the State Zijian, he has never forgotten his duties as an emperor, his diligent attitude and compassion have left a deep mark on future generations.
Zhao Song whose bones and blood continued
Chinese culture that has been passed down through the ages
The needle and thread of the Song Dynasty have been threaded to the present, and everyone is a dream weaver of the image gallery, they are emperors, painters, lyricists, craftsmen... This film not only tells the history and evolution of the economy and culture of the Song Dynasty, but also reflects the "intertextuality" of fate and the times, and the inheritance of history and civilization. Zhao Tuo should be very pleased that his son Zhao Zhuo established the Southern Song Dynasty in Yingtianfu in Nanjing, continuing his dream.
After the fall of Fenjing, a group of outstanding northern literati left their homeland to escape the chaos and crossed the jiangnan, including the lyricist Li Qingzhao. With this southward crossing, China's economic and cultural center of gravity has shifted to the south. The Southern Song Dynasty continued the economic policies and cultural traditions of the Northern Song Dynasty, and gave birth to the Zhu Zi Theory of Confucianism. Although zhao Tuo's thousand-mile rivers and mountains are only half walls, they are still picturesque and brilliant. Chen Yinke later commented: "The culture of the Chinese nation, which has evolved over thousands of years, was created in the world of Zhao and Song dynasties."
The third episode of the second season of the documentary "China", "Dadu", will be broadcast simultaneously on Mango TV and Hunan Satellite TV on March 2, approaching the great fusion of the Yuan Dynasty, approaching Kublai Khan and several important people gathered around him, so stay tuned!
