"Tianchi Stone Wall Diagram" Huang Gongwang
One autumn day, the mountain chestnuts were ripe, and they rolled to the ground in pairs, cracking fresh browns and yellows from the turquoise.
People who see it for the first time will find it interesting. But for Huang Gongwang, who was more than seventy years old, this gadget was full of teeth, he had been coming and going to this mountain for several years, and he had long been familiar with all kinds of things in the mountains.
Imagine that at that moment, Huang Gongwang inadvertently stepped over a cracked chestnut and walked towards the top of the mountain. Beside him, those old pines were blown by the wind, making a monotonous whistle, he stopped slightly, looked across the old pines, only to see dense large stones lined up, huddled together all the way up, silent and hard.
It was huge old granite. Because it is difficult for a tree to grow, only a thin layer of moss is covered on it. "I'm like me. Useless is also like me. He laughed at himself and shook his head, and a sketch slowly took shape.
Huang Gongwang, a disciple of Zhao Mengfu, was a true master
A year later, Hanlin to be made Liu Guan inscribed a long trek on Huang Gongwang's "Tianchi Stone Wall Map":
Sex is the great fool Of the Daoist "Tianchi Stone Wall Diagram", please compose a song, give love to its cooperation, sing and recognize the map, and make the Daoist swallow a smile.

The big idiot Daoist rides a carp and dreams of picking moths and green in the sacred mountains.
I felt that the two sideburns were windy, and the cheeks gushed out of the hibiscus blue.
Under the rock of the dragon pond, the towering Star of Gaolian Pavilion Dao.
Daoists don't know, who is the eight pillars of zhangdiwei?
The golden rope iron button is strong, and the bird road is dangerous.
For three hundred years, the forest has been painted, and Dong Mi has called cooperation in the middle.
What a pity for the ink dots, but also Tu Danji shook off.
Wu Xing's indoor disciples, several people had no blood fingers.
Ten days and five days in one stroke can be done in this day.
Big fools and small people have a lot of things to do, and there are many Taoists.
Wei Jun sang the Yellow Crane, Nai this stone wall Tianchi He?
Liu Guan was a celebrity at that time. Although he had only served as a Wupin official, with his ancient and strange poetry, he was vaguely "the handsome man of the literary field and the hero of the shilin". He said that Huang Gongwang, a disciple of Wu Xing (referring to Zhao Mengfu), was a truly high-ranking person, a layman in the world who could not understand or see through him, and that the only thing he and Huang Gongwang could know each other was the landscape of this great shore, and he also said that without Huang Gongwang, the stone wall of this tianchi would be lonely for a long time.
Always owe a little luck, from Huang Gongwang to the big idiot
Liu Guan was born in 1270, only one year younger than Huang Gongwang, and in the year he painted the Tianchi Stone Wall Map, Liu Guan was 72 years old and Huang Gongwang was 73 years old, and had been practicing for several years.
Huang Gongwang's Dao was probably very well cultivated. The Ming people said that he was "more than ninety years old, with blue pupils and dan cheeks" (Li Rihua's "Purple Peach Xuan Miscellaneous"), and the Qing people said that he was "ninety years old, looking like a child" (郏抡逵逵 "Yushan Painting Chronicle"), and after his death, various legends came out.
Some rumors said that he had ascended to immortality in full view of everyone. Some say that after his death, he still played a flute to pass through Qin Pass. The process of "Wu Xing's indoor disciple" from mortal to immortal, Liu Guan, a peer of the same age, could probably see clearly.
Push forward a few decades. At the age of 24, Huang Gongwang became a scribe to Xu Yan, the envoy of Zhejiang Province. At the age of 45, Huang Gongwang went to Beijing and worked as a scribe in the Chayuan under the Imperial Observatory. At the age of 46, Huang Gongwang did the paperwork of Zhang Lu, the political affairs of Pingzhang, Zhongshu Province.
He struggled. He thought he just owed a little luck. The "New Language of Mountain Residence" says that he is "erudite and versatile", the "Second Essentials of the Painter" says that he is "well-known through the nine streams of the History ershi", and the "Record ghost book" says that he "knows everything about the affairs of the world, down to thin skills and small arts, omnipotent, long words and short songs, and the pen is completed".
His teacher Zhao Mengfu was repeatedly recruited by the imperial court to become an official, and repeatedly added officials to the rank of Knight of The Duke of Wei.
The imperial court needs talented people, but the inflection point of their own lives has not yet arrived. Boil it up.
In the second year of Yuan Yanyou (1315 AD), the inflection point of Huang Gongwang's life finally came! It's just that this inflection point is not quite the same as what he wants...
His superior, Zhang Lu, triggered a civil unrest in Jiangxi while dealing with grain affairs in the southern region the previous year, and Emperor Yuanrenzong imprisoned Zhang Lu and his subordinate Huang Gongwang in order to stabilize the Han mood. What is even more tragic is that in the same year that Huang Gongwang went to prison, the imperial examination he had been looking forward to and interrupted for eighty years miraculously recovered.
Jail, get out, lose your job, miss the civil service exam! Huang Gongwang no longer had any thoughts, and he named himself "Great Idiot Daoist".
Those who were obsessed with the past should now wake up.
What was missed before is now a fool.
Since then, the wen official Huang Gongwang has disappeared into the world, and the Daoist people are stupid and reborn in the human world.
After many years of wrestling with fate, this teenager who once had great ambitions, from the bumpy and lost middle age, to the old age of desperate career, this heart has gradually become calm and stable, there are few waves, his paintings do not have too strong colors, nor do they use large pieces of pen and ink, less rigid lines, under his pen, his beloved Tianchi stone wall is bright and beautiful, peaceful and calm.
This "Tianchi Stone Wall Map" was highly appreciated by Dong Qichang
Huang Gongwang met the Stone Wall of Tianchi, in fact, very early.
During the Yuan Taiding period, when he was fifty or sixty years old, he traveled to Suzhou Huashan, and he liked it very much, at least three or four different Tianchi maps.
Today, the mountain in this painting still stands thirty miles outside Suzhou.
The peaks in this area are undulating and continuous, and the Tiger Hill Mountain, Lingyan Mountain, and Tianping Mountain are the most famous, but few people know about this mountain. This mountain was originally named Huashan and Huashan because there were stones blooming like lotus flowers at the top of the mountain, and because there was a pond on the mountainside, it was also known as Tianchi Mountain.
People who have walked through this mountain and have seen the "Tianchi Stone Wall Map" said, like, like, like, this painting is a mountain, this mountain is a painting, walking where you don't see, this painting is made up.
Dong Qichang also once saw Huang Gongwang's Tianchi map, and even after swimming on this mountain, he couldn't help but shout madly: "Huang ShiGong! Yellowstone Gong! ”
The stone wall of Tianchi had been born in the heart of a great fool for a long time, just as the hardness of Mount Taihua had been nailed to Fan Kuan's heart like a nail.
Close your eyes. Imagine the tip of the idiot's pen lowered from the pine tops, across the stream, all the way to the stone and soil, as if people climbed from the foot of the mountain all the way to the top of the mountain.
Those stones are very special, they are all round, and under the pen of the great fool, they are piled up in a dangerous way. He only used ochre and ink blue to dye a quiet and moist show. And arranged a few mountain huts among the long pine bushes, until the Tianchi, paused, "paint a stone wall", so in the quiet and moist show, Wu Ran had a very steep and upright -
It is said that the stone wall does not belong to Tianchi Mountain, but was borrowed by the Great Fool Daoist from the forest of Yushan Mountain. Because of this stone wall, Xu Bangda believed that this was Yu Mountain, and the controversy continued to exist until now. However, this little controversy may as well be the greatness of this landscape and the hearts of later generations.
Today, lotus peak is still there, the heavenly pond is also there, and those round and rolling stones are still there. Sitting in the middle of the mountain, ripe chestnuts and acorns often fall down, and you can even see squirrels jumping from this tree to that tree.
After seeing the painting and then going to see the mountain, and then coming back to see the painting, in addition to admiration, there is only admiration left. Such a complicated business arrangement, but the penmanship is concise and casual. If you want to follow the hand more carefully, there is probably no better way than copying. Even if you look inch by inch, the eyes still have something to see, but the hand can.
Six hundred and eighty years ago, what kind of hills did the man who wrote the pen have in his chest?
It is said that he sometimes sat on the banks of deserted mountains and rocks and rivers and lakes, often sitting for a long time, and no one knew what he was thinking. He often went out with wine on the night of the moon, sat on the lake bridge and drank alone and groaned, and after drinking the wine, he threw the bottle under the bridge, and threw it to the bottom of the bridge.
There is also an incident recorded in the "Haiyu Painting Garden", saying that he tied the wine bottle with a rope to the stern of the boat, shook the boat out to go around, and when he dragged the rope to take the wine, the rope broke, and he himself laughed so much that he shook the valley, and the people who saw it thought it was a god.
Such a big fool, the layman can't learn it in the end.
