If there are mountains, they are pictures, but if there is no water, there are no articles.

This is a sentence from "Couplets" written by Liang Zhangju in the Qing Dynasty of my country. There are mountains and pictures, but there are no articles without water. The "article" here describes the beauty of the water, saying that it has intricate patterns and colors. The meaning of this sentence is: Any place with mountains and rivers is as beautiful as pictures and articles.

The second meaning means that if there are no mountains, there will be no painting, and it generally refers to the beauty of mountains. If there is no water, the article cannot be written. (In ancient times, there is no painting without mountains, and no writing without water, which means that a painting cannot be called a painting without mountains, and it cannot be an article without describing water.) It refers to the importance of landscapes and their proportion in human life.

Liang Zhangju has been living idle and engaged in writing since he resigned due to illness in the first month of the 22nd year of Daoguang (1842).

The main works include "Jingchen", "Wangji Congtan", "Returning to the Fields", "Tui'an Essays" and "Couplet Conghua" series. In addition, he also left a wealth of couplet works.
