Life of the characters

Early experience

Du Qiong was born in a wealthy family. His father Du Yu, who was named Caotang, had a high cultural accomplishment. However, according to the chronicle of Du Dongyuan written by Shen Zhou, "in the first month of the 30th year of Hongwu, Mr. Lu Youshi, the father of Caotang, lived in the capital and died in the mansion of Dazhongqiao." his father died in the capital soon after Du Qiong was born, so Du Qiong had to depend on his mother Gu.

Celebrity anecdotes

Like to collect

Du Qiongxi's collection of paintings and calligraphy is called yanlv Pavilion.

After being called Jingtai, Junmin Xiucai and jiguduozang, led by Du Dongyuan. There is a "three friends Pavilion" at home, which includes books collection and painting

From Younan Village

Du Qiong wrote in the picture of Nancun villa: "Yu Shaoyou's visit to Mr. Nancun's gate is the most profound experience with the clear wind." Wu Kuan wrote a postscript on the painting: "Mr. Dongyuan (DU Qiong) has been traveling for a long time." Mr. Nancun is Tao Zongyi.

Poetry

Bamboo

The dew leaves and the wind branches connect with the water town, and I remember Xiaoxiang relatively several times. Cold clouds, flowing water, sunset, a song breaks the guest's heart.

Banzhu

If you go to South China, you can't go back to South China. There are also Fuchuan suzimo, whose branches and leaves are still mottled.

Narcissus under bamboo

Wearing ring fragrance, cold water and wind, light dust lining socks. Where to play the twenty-four strings, and ask the sorrow to xiang'e.

Ping'an

A hundred years of life experience is like floating. If there is a trace into the habitat Park, there can be no root left.

Willow evening breeze moved to the other side of the river, peach blossom spring water flooding. Chu ballad breaks the dream of the river and the lake, forgetting the opportunity to chase seagulls everywhere.

《

Su Tai: send Shen Yuanfu back to Qinchuan

》

I miss my return soon after I meet you. I can't bear to hear the decline of Chaolai song. A few cups of green wine, a few old friends.

Apricot blossoms drizzle away, willows wind blowing diaoji. Tomorrow home, spring is warm, except season try spring clothes.

Spring day

White hair is languidly combed but not wrapped. Gaozhai is speechless and sad. Worry about who is like a prison girl, Kuangshi is hard to find a builder.

In the rain, the grass loves the spring. It's hard to get drunk before you're ripe. If you want to borrow the mellow mash, ask your neighbor.

On leisure in spring

There are many horses on the Red Road, but they are not heard in the green Pavilion. The day turns long, the forest moves the shadow, the rain leaves the fragrant path to grow the moss pattern.

Idle chant from the green Chenopodium, high lying who book white practice skirt. If you don't live long enough, you'll grow old soon. I'm afraid I'll be polite in this life.

Cailing painting

Tiaoxi is high in autumn and the water begins to fall. Red skirt green bun who family, boat like shuttle does not park.

It's cold as ice with its slender fingers. Not afraid of cold and stab damage, just afraid to go home without fighting up.

Huzhou people's customs are beautiful. Men understand farming and women understand silk. Cailinglang is a mulberry gatherer and works with his family.

The setting sun, the green mountains, the lake and the sky. A song of the Qing Dynasty follows the way back, not like a lotus picking song sung by Yexi.

Appreciation of works

The spirit of wind in the inscription

On the top right of the painting, the painter said: "it's interesting for me to write about this scene. It's suitable for Mr. Chen Mengxian and Mr. Zheng Dehui to visit. Meng Xian said, "this painting can be used by Zheng Gong? Dehui is not enviable. Mencius Xianqiang's speech is a revelation, but Yu dares not Jin. Wang Wei and Wu daoxuan were reborn with no love. Therefore, they could cultivate their virtue. It's a scholar's disease to play well with your heart. If you look at Dehui, you should be alert to everyone! On the first day of Jiaxu, the fifth year of Jingtai, Du qiongshu wrote Before the inscriptions and postscripts, there are inscriptions of "Guxin" in Bai and "Jingjie Mingmen" in Zhu. After the inscriptions and postscripts, there are inscriptions of "Du Yongjia" in Zhu and "Dongyuan cultivator" in Bai
