Zhang Binglin (1869 ~1936), a native of Yuhang, Zhejiang, whose original name was Xuecheng, zimei shu (Muxi Han cifu jia mei chengzhiyi), trumpet Taiyan, late Qing dynasty and early Min dynasty revolutionary, elder of the League, devoted himself to the anti-Qing revolution, was hunted down seven times, imprisoned three times, thinker, scholar, and Guoxue Taidou. He has a strong memory, enlightened at the age of 6, and at the age of 20, he claimed to be "the end of the world's books", with a deep foundation in writing, and he was adept at using the classics, and his book "The Complete Works of Zhang Taiyan" was called "Encyclopedia of Chinese Culture".
Zhang Taiyan calligraphy
He has a straightforward and eccentric personality, a maverick, a spontaneous way to do things, a surprising speech, bullish, reckless, often scolding people and anyone dares to scold, when people call him "Chapter Madman", he also considers himself a "mental patient". But he was the most cattle master of traditional Chinese studies in China at that time, how cattle was he? Let's start with a few of his cattle events:
(1) When he held a chinese studies workshop in Suzhou, the grand occasion was unprecedented, because he was full of Yuhang dialect, so he specially found Liu Bannong, who was proficient in various dialects, to do the translation, Qian Xuantong specially wrote the board book, the lecture had a special translator, the special person board book, the cow is not a cow?
(2) His students and disciples are Huang Kan, Lu Xun, Zhou Zuoren, Qian Xuantong (disciple Ly), Xu Shousheng, Liu Wendian, Ma Youyu, etc., all of whom are master-level figures, enough cattle!
(3) The names of his four daughters are all strange characters,
Later, he specially opened the "daughter's name conference" to solemnly explain these words, and then married the daughters out, real cattle;
(4) He likes to swear. He scolded the Guangxu Emperor as a "clown", scolded the royalist Kang Youwei, Liang Qichao, and Zhang Xiao (the last chinese leader), also scolded Duan Qirui, Tang Shaoyi, Zhao Bingjun and other new upstarts of the Republic of China, and even scolded Sun Yat-sen, Huang Xing, Song Jiaoren and other revolutionary pioneers! If someone echoed his scolding of Sun Yat-sen, he would immediately slap him in the face and scold, "What are you?" The Prime Minister (Sun Yat-sen) is a great man of the first class in China, who but me dares to scold him?! "It's a cow boom, a bull's gas!
Yuan Shikai
(5) Yuan Shikai was called emperor, he went straight into the presidential palace, scolded Yuan as a "thief of the country" and "a thief of a single husband", frightened old Yuan to avoid, he picked up his cane and smashed the utensils of the presidential palace into a mess! However, Old Yuan only dared to put him under house arrest at the Longquan Temple in western Beijing, and waited for 500 oceans of living expenses every month, and did not dare to kill him! Too cattle, do not admit that he cattle is a bar spirit!
Yuan Shikai calligraphy
It is such a cattle man, with two pairs of couplets that expose ridicule, which are rumored to be good stories.
(1) Rebuke the Cixi Shou Lian
In 1904, empress dowager Cixi celebrated her seventieth birthday, and Zhang Taiyan sent a pair of "Shou Lian", Lian Yun:
Today to Nanyuan, tomorrow to beihai, when to go to ancient Chang'an? Sigh li min anointing all blood withered, only for one person to sing and celebrate,
Fifty cut Ryukyu, sixty cut Taiwan, and now cut the three eastern provinces! Pain Chi County Bang Yi Yi Shu, every time the longevity wishes for the frontier no! (Place thousands of miles)
Cixi's calligraphy and paintings
Shanglian described Cixi as a great builder of civil engineering for the sake of personal greed, regardless of the people's lives and deaths, for her own joy, and only one project in the Summer Palace lasted three years, costing tens of millions of dollars, causing public resentment to boil over, and the country was poor! This couplet is a ruthless exposé and satire of Cixi!
The xialian writes that every birthday of Cixi means a national catastrophe: at the age of 50, France launched a war of aggression against China, and Japan took the opportunity to annex the Ryukyu Islands; At the age of 60, Japan invaded the northeast and plundered the treasure island of Taiwan; At the age of 70, Japan and Russia fought in the northeast for the interests of the northeast, but Cixi shamelessly declared "external neutrality"! It is precisely whenever there is a long (wish) birthday that China's territory is gone, and the author cleverly reverses "long life without frontiers" into "boundless territory", which is really wonderful.
The whole league counts cixi's crimes, pungently exposes and ridicules, and the pen is powerful and imposing! Where is this Birthday?! This is simply which pot does not open which pot, this is to expose the queen's short, hit the queen's face! Cixi almost did not have a back, the next arrest, Zhang was sent to Japan by the students.
(2) Mocking Kang has a union
Kang Youwei
On March 8, 1927, Kang Youwei's proud protégé Liang Qichao celebrated his seventieth birthday in Shanghai, and Zhang Taiyan also sent a couplet:
The kingdom will perish,
Old and not dead is for.
This link is not only an embedded name link, embedded with the word "youwei", but also a break after the link (hidden word union). The upper link is from the "Book of Rites and Zhongyong": "The kingdom will die and there will be demons", the lower link is from the "Analects of the Constitution": "The old and not dead are for thieves", and the full union implies the meaning of "Kang Youwei is a demon, a thief".
Kang Youwei calligraphy
In his early years, Kang Youwei was very famous and was known as the "Saint of the South China Sea", but after the failure of the "Penghu Reform Law", he fled to Japan, falsely claiming that Guangxu had "clothes and edicts", organized royalists, collected membership fees, deceived the world and stole his name, wantonly amassed wealth, and lived a life of poverty and luxury. According to statistics, in the 15 years from 1898 to 1913, he crossed the Pacific Ocean four times, crossed the Indian Ocean eight times, and passed through the Atlantic Ocean nine times, and successively traveled to more than 30 countries and regions such as Britain, the United States, Italy, Greece, Brazil, Mexico, India, etc., and spent about 1.5 million yuan in Sweden to buy a small island, named "Kang Youwei Island", and the membership fee was squandered; With the help of the money cheated, he also married Mrs. Liufang, and at the age of 62, he also forcibly married the 19-year-old sixth aunt! Such a person, Zhang Taiyan nominated dao surname to call him "demon, thief", really worthy of the name, not unjust at all!
Liang Qichao calligraphy
It is said that the people who participated in the birthday banquet at that time were embarrassed, fortunately Liang Qichao was quick-witted, and the pen was added two words to the back, becoming "The country will die and there will be loyal martyrs, and the old and not dead will be renrui" (people over 100 years old are called renrui), teachers are loyal, wish the teacher a long life and a hundred years old, save face for Kang Youwei, and have to admire Liang Qichao's agility and talent and righteousness. Unexpectedly, on March 21, Kang Youwei lost his breath due to food poisoning.
Only a person with extensive knowledge and super-agile thinking can have arrogant capital, but being hunted down seven times and imprisoned three times is the price of arrogance. Facts have proved that modesty and low-key can win the admiration of the world, like Yuan Longping Yuan Lao, "Peach and Lee do not speak, the next is their own"! Although this statement is small, it can be said to be big.
