In the 12th year of Qianlong (1747), Aisin Gioro Hongli, who loved to act evilly, suddenly wanted to show off his achievements in calligraphy collection. Therefore, 340 handwritings of famous masters of all dynasties were selected into stone, called "Sanxitang Fa Tie".

"Sanxitang Fa Tie" in total. At the end of the fifth volume, the "Lilac Flower Tie" by the late Tang and Five Dynasties calligraphers Yang Ningshi . This post consists of 7 lines and 63 characters, ranking one of the "Top Ten Running Stories in the World".
The "Lilac Tie" included in "Sanxitang Fa Tie"
full text is "Sleeping in the daytime, and the morning is very hungry. Suddenly I was given a simple hand and gave it a plate to eat. When a leaf commences the autumn, it is the beginning of the leek flowers showing off their taste, which is really called shame. When filling the abdomen, the inscription is inscribed with the skin. I will carefully prepare the expression and thank you, and I will only examine it, and I will carefully show it. On July 11th."
200 years later, the "Lilac Tie" included in the book was transferred to the Wuxi Museum. But unexpectedly, the academic community unanimously pointed out that it was "fake! product!" Who cheated Qianlong with
?
Although Qianlong's aesthetic is uncomprehensible, he is indeed a collector. Therefore, Cuihua firmly believed at the beginning that the "Sanxitang Fa Tie" must be the authentic one, but it was replaced by someone in the later circulation process! However, facts prove that Qianlong failed Cuihua's trust. The academic community, which has always been difficult to unify its views, united this time, Qianlong was defeated and determined that the "Sanxitang Fa Tie" included a copy.
Museumist Yang Renkai 's view is that the "Lilac Tie" collected by the Qing Dynasty was originally a genuine work. But when the Kangxi was stolen by the bold doctor of Jianshu and hidden it back to his home, leaving only a copy for the emperor.
decades later, the copy was dumbfounded by Qianlong. Not only did he not find that he had been dropped, but he was also carved into a stone tablet and assembled into a book to show off everywhere...
calligraphy and painting appraisal Xu Bangda's viewpoint was even more hurtful. He felt that Qianlong and his family had no vision, and they collected the copy from the beginning. The authentic product has disappeared since the end of the Ming Dynasty. As for the doctor of book review, Gao Shiqi, he does have a "Lilac Flower Tie" in his hand, but it is another copy, which is the current version of the collection of Lanqianshan Pavilion in Taiwan.
Photocopy of "Jiuhua Tie" in Lan Qianshan Museum, Taiwan. The "fake" in Qianlong's hand was stolen out of the palace by Puyi in the late Qing Dynasty. It was "discarded" in Wuxi City (registered and confiscated) in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, which is the version collected by Wuxi Museum.

Both collection versions are fake, so where did the authentic products go? On this issue, Yang and Xu have the same views, and they both tend to be the original work of "Jiuhua Tie" in the hands of modern archaeologist Luo Zhenyu. At present, this is also the mainstream view in the academic community.

Xu Bangda also pointed out that there are photocopies of the original works in the first volume of the "Baijuezhai Famous People in the Past Dynasties" compiled by Luo Zhenyu. He also said that in terms of artistic level, the first two copies are far from the original ones.
However, unfortunately, the original work was lost in Luo Zhenyu's Changchun residence in 1945, and I don't know who was in the hands of him.

"Lilac Flower Praise" attracts countless fans?
has gained countless fans of all sizes and sizes, making people imitate them. What is the charm of "Lilac Flower Tie", which even copied is regarded as a treasure by Qianlong?
"Lilac Flower Tie" is Yang Ningshi's representative work, with roughly "When I woke up from a nap, I tasted the delicious leek flowers, and my mood instantly became great. I must write a thank you letter to my friends who gave the leek flowers."
Uh, Cuihua wants to say that this must be a letter with flavor, leek flavor.

This picture is said to be restored based on the photocopy version, and some people believe that it is derived from the original work. It is not difficult for us to see from the content of the letter that Yang Ningshi loves to eat leeks.Yang Ningshi's relaxed and happy and contented state of mind when writing a letter is reflected in the work, and the style of "Jiuhua Tie" is also chic and casual.
In terms of font, this post is between regular script and running script. Yang Ningshi uses the brushwork and layout of running script in regular script, which has changed the uprightness and strictness of Tang Kai, which is free and detached, and free and unrestrained.
"Jiuhuatie" has changed the font of Tang Kai's regular and strict
"Blank and smooth" and is a major artistic feature that "Jiuhuatie" is praised by people. The character spacing and line spacing in calligraphy works have a great impact on the overall visual layout. The large distance between the characters and lines of "Jiaohua Tie" is rare among the ink marks in all dynasties.
Compared with the top ten running scripts, " Lanting Preface ", the lemon and line spacing of "Jiuhua Tie" is extremely large, and its lemon and line spacing are not fixed, seemingly casual but have regular rules to follow. The front is dense and sparse in the back, and spreads radially from the upper right to the lower left, which is unified and rich in variation, making the relaxed layout more vivid, forming a far-reaching realm with a broad background, elegant style and extraordinary charm.
"Jiuhua Tie" is slightly denser than the last 4 lines, and the five, six and seven are the most sparse and wider; the spacing of the characters is spiral upward from the upper right to the lower left, gradually expanding
on the character set, and the characters in the post are long or flat, closed or laid, sparse or dense, so that they can really run a horse in the sparse places, and the dense places do not allow ventilation. While forming a strong visual contrast, it is not abrupt, and it is coordinated and unified with the processing of the whole text's font spacing and line spacing, as if it is natural and interesting.
zhao, report, leek, cut a few words, and the words "Autumn, Fu, Check, and" are extremely tight, while the words "Autumn, Fu," "Shen" are extremely open
s real characters are left under the veil, which forms a strong visual contrast with the dense dots and strokes in the lower part
Qianlong should be convinced!
Xu Bangda said that the copy is far from the original one, so let’s take a look at the version of Qianlong’s Wuxi Museum. How far is the difference between the version of Luo Zhenyu in terms of artistic attainments?
Yang Ningshi's super fan, a major feature of the Ming Dynasty calligrapher and painter Dong Qichang commented on "Jiuhua Tie" is "slanting and taking the state". In addition, with the overall layout of sparse left and dense right, the single-text characters of "Jiaohua Tie" show the characteristics of left and right convergence, while the Xibo version weakens this kind of contrast in the characters.
comparison of Robben and Xiboben on the word
Secondly, Xiboben uses the double hook ink filling method. (First use thin lines to outline the outline and then fill in the ink in the blank in the middle) However, when outlining the font outline, the non-parallel strokes in the trend are turned into parallel, which is a little dull, and loses the naturalness and flexibility.

In fact, there are many nuances like this, which shows that Yang Ningshi's calligraphy attainments are beyond the reach of no matter how meticulously copied it. Cuihua only hopes that the original works will appear as soon as possible, so that we can have the opportunity to see its style and experience the leisurely autumn afternoon more than 1,000 years ago.
