Chapter 376 General Tian Bai
In the North Wing, the etiquette between teachers and students is complicated.
But today's class is very special. The Ministry of Etiquette has confirmed with all the teachers and students present that the etiquette should be kept as simple as possible.
Therefore, students bow by placing their fists to their foreheads, and teachers return the greeting by placing their fists below their chests.
But Shi Anxia still chose the student etiquette and gave up the teacher etiquette.
After she finished her greetings and waited for everyone to take their seats, she smiled and sat cross-legged. "Today, we are going to talk about the style of Japanese calligraphy. But we cannot just talk about the style of Japanese calligraphy. We have to start with General Huai Yong during the reign of Emperor Yuanhe of the Northern Wing."
As soon as she opened her mouth, coupled with her dignified and elegant temperament, people would collect their scattered thoughts and concentrate on listening to her words.
She spoke in a clear and melodious voice, and deliberately lowered her voice to make it less delicate and childish. "It is said that Mr. Huang Wanqian has a profound family background, and his ancestors were also famous scholars. However, few people know that this General Huai Yong is actually a son of the Huang family."
After just a few words, other people didn't seem shocked, but everyone in the Huang family had tears in their eyes.
Although this information had already been known from a single copy, the excitement of hearing it spoken by the gentleman and known to the world was beyond words.
Their Huang family’s ancestors also produced military generals and great generals!
Shi Anxia continued, "General Huaiyong's original surname was Huang, his given name was Aicheng, and his courtesy name was Mingrui."
As if she knew the reactions of the people below, she paused.
Sure enough, someone raised his hand to express doubt. That person was Huang Xingyue.
He was recently compiling historical documents on mountains and rivers, and happened to have seen this General Huai Yong in historical materials, which was completely different from what Shi Anxia said.
Shi Anxia smiled and said, "Master Huang, please speak."
Huang Xingyue stood up hurriedly.
People call him "Mr. Huang", but he doesn't really dare to think that he is a "mr."
Shi Anxia smiled slightly and said, "Master Huang, please sit down and talk. You are blocking the master behind you."
Huang Xingyue subconsciously turned her head and saw Emperor Mingde laughing. She was so scared that she quickly sat cross-legged.
Shi Anxia then said, "Today's discussion of 'He Shu' is for mutual learning between you and me. The reason why I sit at the head is because I happen to know a little more than you. Everyone, don't be polite. Mr. Huang, please tell me your doubts."
The other party's humility and courtesy made those officials and scholars who still had some dignity in their hearts feel ashamed.
At this time, the atmosphere was harmonious.
Huang Xingyue said, "General Huaiyong during the reign of Emperor Yuanhe was named Tian Bai."
Shi Anxia nodded, "Master Huang is right. General Tian Bai, also known as General Huai Yong, is today's protagonist Huang Aicheng."
Next, she briefly explained why Huang Aicheng became General Tian Bai.
Huang Aicheng loved martial arts since he was young, and always wanted to be a hero who saved people from danger. This is clearly stated in the solitary copy.
But during the reign of Emperor Yuanhe, the emphasis was placed on literature over military affairs. The Huang family had been a family of scholars for generations, so they could not tolerate someone abandoning his pen to join the military.
Huang Aicheng was forced to study literature, which made him extremely distressed. In a fit of anger, he ran away, vowing to make something of himself before returning to the Huang family.
He joined the army under the pseudonym Tian Bai and joined General Chen Yuan's team, starting from an unknown person.
In his early years, General Chen Yuan fought in various major cities and fortresses, and finally stationed in the important border town of Tianwei.
Huang Aicheng made many military achievements under his command, and after fifteen years, he was promoted to General Huaiyong.
During his time away from home, he never stopped studying and was definitely the most knowledgeable among the generals.
What he was best at was calligraphy, and in his early years he was deeply influenced by the calligraphy of the Huang family and his maternal grandfather's Xu family.
His later experiences made him knowledgeable and enabled him to absorb the strengths of various schools and, after integrating them, form a unique style with clear edges and corners and outstanding grace.
As Huang Aicheng grew older and had achieved something, he began to prepare to return home in glory.
He wrote a letter home to explore the way, but he did not indicate that he was the famous General Huaiyong of the dynasty.
He said in the letter that this was his own font and asked his family to appreciate it. If feasible, he wanted to name this font "和书" font.
The font was named "和书" because after fighting for half his life, he realized that peace is the most precious thing.
After receiving the letter, the Huang family cried with joy. Because the font was so majestic and the lines were exquisite, they thought that this font could be promoted as the national script.
In fact, the Huang family has been working hard for the development of calligraphy art and cultural heritage in Beiyi from generation to generation. Now when they see the "Heshu" font, they are ecstatic and are waiting for Huang Aicheng to return home quickly.
But the Huang family waited year after year, but never heard a single word from Huang Aicheng, let alone wait for him to return home in glory.
Because after Huang Aicheng sent back the first letter, the "Tianwei Rebellion" broke out. He and General Chen Yuan were killed in that battle.
At that time, some members of the Huang family wrote poems and essays to commemorate the heroes who died in the "Tianwei Rebellion". They even praised General Tian Bai by name, saying that he was besieged by tens of thousands of enemy troops on Tianlu Mountain, but he was ready to die and refused to give an inch, thus buying precious time for the counterattack on the northern wing.
But the Huang family never dreamed that General Tian Bai was none other than Huang Aicheng, the son they had been waiting for for many years.
As for how the unique copy ended up being lost and almost becoming a useless book, no one knows. Fortunately, the unique copy wandered around and eventually fell into Shi Anxia's hands.
That was Huang Aicheng's handwritten manuscript, which contained a careful explanation of the calligraphy style, his insights, and a description of his past experiences.
But he never pointed out explicitly in the solitary copy that the Huang family was the most famous and upright family in every dynasty, so no one made this connection.
Everyone sighed after hearing this.
In his previous life, Shi Anxia was bored and took out a book to learn calligraphy. Later, he became addicted to it and studied it often.
When she became the Empress Dowager Huizheng, she showed off her calligraphy skills at a palace banquet, and the descendants of the Huang family recognized that it was the "Heshu" font.
Only then did she realize that the only copy was written by General Tian Bai, also known as Huang Aicheng, as evidenced by the letters Huang Aicheng wrote to the Huang family.
The two were compared and the truth was revealed. It was a pity that Mr. Huang Wanqian spent his entire life studying the calligraphy style but never saw a single copy.
In this life, she returned the only copy of the Huang family's book, many years earlier than in her previous life, thus fulfilling Mr. Huang's wish.
Next, she talked about the essence of Japanese calligraphy and her own experience.
Huang Wanqian's eyes were filled with tears. After a long silence, he finally expressed his inner thoughts, "In fact, the 'Japanese' style of calligraphy that you wrote is very different from that of my ancestors, and has a more subtle style. You can definitely be regarded as the founder of a school of your own."
That is a higher achievement, which is a huge temptation for anyone.
Shi Anxia was thinking about how those rising stars of the Huang family had discussed and researched with her in her previous life.
The more exquisite brushwork now is not the result of her alone, but also the hard work of the Huang family.
Among those sitting below now, there are several who will become famous calligraphers in the future, and they will take it as their mission to publicize and promote the "Heshu" font.
Shi Anxia's brows were calm and she smiled faintly, "If I were to rename it, I would still call it 'Heshu', because I also love peace; if someone in the North Wing asks me about the origin of the 'Heshu' font, I would answer that it comes from the Huang family; if other countries ask me about the origin of the 'Heshu' font, I would answer that it comes from the North Wing."
