In the first couplet, "clouds and cranes travel in the sky, and the sea plays with the masses", it is said that Xiao Yan, Emperor Wu of Liang Dynasty, commented on Wei Zhongyao's book in his comments on the merits and demerits of ancient and modern calligraphers: "Zhongyao's book is like clouds and cranes travel in the sky, and the sea plays with the masses, and the lines are dense. It's really sad." This article is abbreviated as "book review" or "book review", which was not quoted before the Tang Dynasty. It was first found in volume 5 of "Song monk Zhiguo book" of "Chunhua Wentie" in the Song Dynasty. This passage mainly describes the wonderful state of Zhong Yao's calligraphy, which is characterized by appropriate weight, combination of hardness and softness, abundant strength and tendons, and dense elegance. The second couplet "meiyanzaoxia" means that the heat of Meitian in early summer decorates the summer, and it is fighting against the following "wheat gas meets autumn".
