Life of the characters
As for Dai Jin's life story, the relevant records are very brief and different from each other. According to Zhang Chao's Yu Chu Xin Zhi and li e's Dong Shi Za Ji in the Qing Dynasty, Dai Jin worked as a silversmith when he was young, making gold and silver jewelry and other handicrafts, such as figures, flowers and birds, hairpins and bamboos. Dai Jin is also proud of this, secretly proud that other people get his crafts will be very valuable, long-term collection. One day, Dai Jin met a gold Melting Man in the market. All the gold melting utensils were handcrafts made by him. Suddenly, he was so sad that he lost them. He said, "I'm exhausted. I can't help it. I'll never forget my name. It is not enough for modern people to use what I have made and to die what I love. Can you trust ANN to me? " People say, "ziqiao entrusts all kinds of gold. Gold ornaments can be used by the common people to play and love their children and women. Is that the only way to be brilliant? If you are able to remove your wisdom, you must pass it on. " Dai Jin was very happy, so he studied painting. It is also recorded in Lang Ying's seven revisions of the Ming Dynasty: "at the end of Yongle, Dai Jin, a painter of Qiantang, went from his father to the capital. Although the pen is extraordinary, it does not show its name even though it has a father. " It can be seen that Dai Jin's father, Dai Jingxiang, is a professional painter with great attainments. Dai Jin is good at painting and has his own family background. Comparing the two theories, it should be more believable that Lang Ying had witnessed Dai Jin's tombstone at hengcun bridge in Xihu before Jiajing. However, the fact that Dai Jin was born in a humble family is generally acknowledged by historians. In the last years of Yongle, Dai Jin went to Beijing with his father. Dai Jin went to yingtianfu and Nanjing was at the beginning of Yongle. According to Zhou Hui's Jinling trivia in Ming Dynasty, when Dai Jin arrived in Nanjing in the early years of Yongle, he was about to enter the west gate of the water. When he was looking forward to it, a porter picked up one of his luggage. I don't know. Although Wen Jin had known him for a while, he had already acquired his face. So he borrowed some paper and strokes from the restaurant to draw his portrait, and the porters gathered to recognize him. Go home with him, because he has his luggage. In the early years of Yongle, Dai Jin was no more than seventeen or eighteen years old. He had such a good ability to capture and remember the shape and spirit of characters. On the one hand, it showed Dai Jin's talent in painting. On the other hand, it also showed that Dai Jin might have learned painting from his father and practiced hard. By this time, he had accumulated some painting experience. At the beginning of Yongle, the capital of Chengzu of Ming Dynasty was still in Nanjing. In 1421, the capital of Yongle was moved to Beijing, and Nanjing was the remaining capital. Dai Jin went to Beijing with his father from 1421 to 1424. After more than ten years in the palace, he made great progress in painting, but failed. So he left Kyoto and returned to Hangzhou. as for whether Dai Jin formally entered the imperial court's painting academy, there are different records. According to Volume 55 of peiwenzhai calligraphy and painting manual, Li zaixiao quoted the record of Fujian painting as saying: "Li Zai In Xuanmiao (Xuanzong of Ming Dynasty), Dai Wenjin, Xie tingxun, Shi Rui and Zhou Wenjing were the same people in Zhaozhi Renzhi hall. " Xu Qin's Ming Hua Lu also called Dai Jin "Xuan de Chu enlisted in the painting academy, saw slander and released, died of poverty.". It can be seen that Dai Jin entered the painting academy at the beginning of Xuande (1426-1435) and was granted the title of waiting for imperial edict. However, Lang Ying's "biography of Dai Jin in the seven revisionary manuscripts" says that the guardian Fu presented four paintings of Dai Jin to Xuanzong and recommended Dai Jin himself. However, because Xuanzong believed Xie tingxun's slander, he was so angry that he wanted to kill Dai Jin that Dai Jin had to abscond overnight. Then Dai Jin didn't seem to be rewarded by Xuanzong, so he got into trouble, not to mention being appointed as an official. In addition, in Li Yi's essay on the old man of jie'an in the Ming Dynasty, Dai Jin was punished and not used. The article said: "during Xuande period, Xie tingxun, a painter of Kunshan, was a favorite of his paintings, and he played Weiqi all day long. At that time, Dai Wenjin of Qiantang had a very high painting skill, and he traveled to Beijing with 18 people of the same generation. Examination, so that Dai painted dragon, Dai ben to landscape good name, not its true colors. As usual, the dragon is painted with four claws, showing the emperor. He is very angry and says, "I'm a dragon
