Explanatory notes:
The crowing of chickens and the cold dawn of the purple road, the warblers singing in the spring of the Huangzhou. The golden tower opens thousands of households at dawn, and the jade terraces hold thousands of officials
The flowers greet the sword and wear the stars at the beginning of the fall, and the willows brush the flags and the dew is still wet. The Phoenix Pond is unique in that it is difficult to sing a song in the spring
The clouds are deep and ancient
The payment is “Shen Du Li Gu in the clouds”. Seal “Shen Minze”
This page contains a poem by Cen Shen, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, entitled “Feng He Zhong Shu Shen Ren Jia Zhi Da Ming Palace in the Early Dynasty”. Shen Du is good at Li, but his works are rare. Yang Shiqi of the Ming Dynasty said: “Eight points are particularly ancient and have a clear Han meaning.” Looking at this work, the structure is square and neat, with fewer strokes and turns, and the posture and strokes are closer to regular script, which is also the main feature of the official script of the Ming Dynasty. The overall style and features are thick, simple, but slightly lacking in vividness.
