There were more emperors who were more literary and artistic. A brief introduction is as follows:

1. Xiao Yan, Emperor Wu of Liang during the Southern and Northern Dynasties (464~549)

Not only was he capable of governing the country, but he was also an emperor who understood literature and art. He has a unique vision in evaluating calligraphy, such as commenting on Wang Xizhi's "Lanting Preface": "The dragon leaps over the Tianmen, and the tiger lies in the Phoenix Tower." ?He and the famous literati of the time such as Xie Tiao often talked about culture together. "Wen Xin Diao Long" is the work at this time. In his later years, he believed in Buddhism, and there were many Buddha statues all over the country. He even shoveled away the Han Dynasty architectural sculptures on Pingyang Mansion Junque, a national first-class cultural relic located in Youxian District, Mianyang City, and remodeled the Buddha statues. This was a typical move of "not worth the gain." We say that at present, there are many Buddhist statues in our country, but the buildings of the Han Dynasty are basically extinct. It is really a pity!

Second, Tuoba Jun Gaozong of the Northern Wei Dynasty

Before the Six Dynasties and the Northern Wei Dynasty, they were nomadic people at the foot of the North Mountain of Daxian. During the Eastern Jin Dynasty, in order to teach Taizu Emperor Wu a lesson, they annexed the four directions and established a country in Datong, Shanxi. In his early years, he believed in the Dharma of destruction. In his later years, he repented. After the emperor ascended the throne, he explicitly restored Buddhism. Instead, a statue of Sakyamuni was erected, one foot six long. This is the famous Yungang Grottoes. Emperor Gaozong, regardless of his literary and artistic level, can leave a valuable cultural heritage for Chinese culture and should have a place among cultural celebrities!

Third, Li Yu

Born on Chinese Valentine’s Day in 937 AD, his arrival brought the sweetest story and the most beautiful story to the world The poem is really God’s will!

Born on Valentine's Day, it was also the first year of the reign of his father Li Jing as the founder of the Southern Tang Dynasty and the second year of the reign of Emperor Gaozu of the Jin Dynasty. He is the sixth in his family.

The emperor's grandson, who has been well-dressed since he was a child, was first named Yu Jia, that is to say, he changed his name to Yu and became the emperor's empress. He is a famous brand and lives a romantic life surrounded by pearls. But he is different from those dandy boys. His spiritual genes are full of article learning.

He is good at writing and painting, especially appreciation; he is proficient in music, pays attention to the beauty of words, and the depth of Chinese characters, which provides material for his Ciguo Architecture.

If his prose is rich in spring and autumn, it will become a chapter. Or play in batches, or write in chrome, or preface a poem, or express a chapter, full of emotion and overflowing with words, and the smooth sentences are like the cadence of poetry. There are only about ten known articles, but the epitaph written for him by his loyal minister Xu Xuan shows that he has 30 volumes of collected works and 100 essays, which can be used to summarize his achievements.

He is a painter and writes like a god. "Mi Fu's History of Painting" praised him: "The flowers are beautiful and lovely", Shen Kuo's "Bi Meng Xi Bi Tan" said: "The late master was good at painting, especially feathers"; "Taiping Qinghua" said: "The late master was good at painting" Painting in red ink?; "Xuanhe Painting Book": "Nine Paintings of Jiangnan Li Yu from the Palace Museum Collection".

In people's minds, Li Yu is just a sentimental king who lost his country, and all his works may be full of sadness. This view is one-sided.

His calligraphy works are magnificent! He wrote the sentence in the "Preface to the Book": "The book is strong but old, and has different functions. The book is strong, and the book is strong." They still went to whoring with Yao 18 and joined the army. They first had thousands of horses and relied on the mausoleum desert, but they were blind. Another example is Xia Yun's Qifeng, which is afraid of the fierce scenery under the sun and the heat. The book is modeled after Liu Gongquan's, like a trembling pen,\

So the editor of "Huang Song Shu Lu" issued a confused expression Voice: If you use calligraphy to observe Houzhu Li, you can say that he is a strong man! ?

What caused Li Yu to slide back and forth on both ends of Zhao Kuangyin's first mouse? This is related to his family background.

When he was just seven years old, it was when his grandfather, a doctor who was the founding emperor of the People's Republic of China, who famously said: "A man can fly safely" passed away and flew to the south alone. But his father Li Jing was: "Cowardly in nature, ignorant but mighty" (Bei Jiangnan Wild History), Li Yu was "born in a deep palace and was better than a woman with three hands". In such a gentle and rich land, only sweet and soft dreams are left. "

Just as he lamented in his own words: The Phoenix Palace and the Dragon Palace are like the Han Dynasty, and the Yushu and Qiongzhi are like Yanluo. He knows how to fight!?

His father is famous in literature. Unique and outstanding in ability. Lu You was shocked and believed that Jinling was one of the two major cultural centers in China in the early 10th century. To be honest, Chinese literati may sympathize with Li Yu's situation, but they also lamented the ruthlessness of history. Unable to undertake an overly heavy mission, Zhao Kuangyin, who was a soldier, should face the complex and severe situation at that time.

Four, Song Huizong Zhao Ji

He was the eighth emperor of the Song Dynasty. He became emperor at the age of 28. He reigned for 16 years and died at the age of 54. As a monarch, he was outstanding and talented. He: The essence of art is

Like his predecessor Li Yu, his literary and artistic genes are very strong, he is naturally intelligent, profound attainments, elegant taste, and exquisite artistic creation, enough to shine in the history books. Brighten the future!

The main achievement is the meticulous flower-and-bird painting (see the picture above? The hibiscus and golden pheasant painting?), and he was the first to unify poetry, calligraphy, painting, and printing. He surpassed this problem. Su Dongpo.

His "thin gold style" calligraphy is unique in the Chinese calligraphy world and cannot be surpassed by anyone.

He often instructs the students of the Hanlin Academy in drawing, and strictly prohibits them from using "Jianghu style" to be unconventional and sensational.
