During the reign of Emperor Wenzong of Yuan, in terms of culture, Emperor Wenzong of Yuan played a great role in promoting the literature of the Yuan Dynasty. The Yuan Dynasty was a dynasty established by the Mongol minority, so some Mongolian nobles were somewhat repelled by Han culture. As a result, the contribution of the Yuan dynasty to Chinese civilization was relatively small compared to that of the Tang and Song dynasties.
Emperor Wenzong of Yuan was the most literate of the many Emperors of the Yuan Dynasty. He was very fond of Sinology. In terms of cultural development, Yuan Wenzong was one of the most accomplished emperors of the Yuan Dynasty. During the reign of Emperor Wenzong of Yuan, he advocated Han culture, and he built the Kuizhang Pavilion and compiled the "Classics of the Classics", a book of Yuan Dynasty culture, which won the hearts of a large number of Han people in this way. He himself is also very respectful of the culture of the Han Dynasty. Yuan Wenzong's calligraphy was very high, and his characters had the style of Tang Taizong. He also paints, and his work is cleverly structured and delicately thought-
In the Han culture, the qinqi calligraphy and painting, Yuan Wenzong probably only knew the qin. The other three things he had in his hands. Of these, his favorite is Go. Because of this preference, during his reign, there were many people in the Yuan Dynasty Palace who could play chess. Yuan Bochang of the Yuan Dynasty also wrote a poem "Gong'e Yi Chess Diagram" to describe the grand situation at that time. Once, when Emperor Wenzong of Yuan and his chancellor Yu Ji were playing chess, he asked him if his ancestor Yu Yuan thought that the emperor should not play chess. Yu Ji cleverly replied that the principle of Go and the principle of governing the country are the same, and if the game of Go is good, then the country can also be governed well, which makes Yuan Wenzong's heart happy.
