Huang Tingjing is a book about the recuperation and cultivation of Taoist priests. The earliest time can be traced back to the Han and Three Kingdoms period. Because many emperors in ancient times hoped to live forever, many people would study various articles on self-cultivation and longevity, and organize and spread them. In our modern language, it can be said to be traditional Chinese medicine, and it can also be said to be the way of keeping in good health.
Friends in the calligraphy circle should know that there is a calligraphy work by Huang Tingjing written by Wang Xizhi, which is also the representative work of many people copying Wang Xizhi's copybook. This work was written for lower case letters, and it is also one of the few classic works of Wang Xizhi. Because many Wang Xizhi are running script works.
Then Wang Xizhi's Huang Tingjian can be handed down to future generations to learn calligraphy. In fact, there is a little story that is widely known. Wang Xizhi was famous for eating geese at that time. Because the old people nearby knew Wang Xizhi's hobby, they kept a flock of geese. But it happened that Wang Xizhi saw that I liked it very much, so I wanted to buy it. But Lao Dao wanted to create Huang Tingjing's calligraphy in exchange, and Wang Xizhi readily agreed.
Wang Xizhi's Calligraphy Legend:
Wang Xizhi was born in Wang Lang, a famous family in Wei and Jin Dynasties. He was good at calligraphy when he was seven years old. Legend has it that the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty would go to the northern suburbs to offer sacrifices, and asked Wang Xizhi to write his congratulatory message on a wooden board, and then sent workers to carve it. The sculptor cut the board layer by layer and found that Wang Xizhi's calligraphy ink had been printed into the board. He didn't reach the bottom until he cut into a depth of three points. Woodworkers are amazed at Wang Xizhi's pen power, perfect calligraphy skills and his pen power.
