Ji Xiaolan inscribed a couplet for Confucius, why are there two typos?

Because these two characters were written in this way in ancient times, they were considered typos only because they were different from our current characters.

There is no mistake in writing, but the excessive interpretation of later generations - it is believed that the rich characters are less to reflect the wealth of Confucius, and the vertical writing of the chapter is to highlight Confucius's articles to the sky. But in fact, the word rich has been more popular since the Northern Wei Dynasty, and there is no way to write it at all. A vertical writing of the chapter is also a very common way to write inscriptions in ancient times.

Shanglian is "with the country Xianxiu, Anfu and honorable mansion", the rich word has no head is to hope that the descendants of Confucius can be rich and noble, there is no end. The next link is "the same day and the old article moral sage family", and the last stroke of the word "chapter" passes through the "day", which is a metaphor for Confucius's "article through the sky".

Because at that time, the words Fu and Zhang were actually written like that, and Ji Xiaolan's way of writing was correct. It's just that it changed after the simplified characters became popular, so it now looks like a typo.

Uplink: Two butterflies in the forest.

.Uplink: The jade flute is played in the Yellow Crane Tower.

Downlink: The White Dragon Temple hits the golden bell.

.Uplink: The lotus bud in the pond clutches the red fist.

Downlink: hemp leaves on the shore stretch out green palms.

。Shanglian: The guest is a natural residence, and it is actually a guest in the sky.

Downlink: Monk tour Yunyin Temple, temple hidden cloud wandering monk. . .

1 irony, joy.

2 literary and visionary, wise and agile, is a genius of couplets, all things in heaven and earth, ancient and modern poetry are indispensable, easy to come, the export is interesting, as if it is natural, its perfect text kung fu is breathtaking.

In fact, those two typos were deliberately done by Ji Xiaolan, because there is a big difference in the rules between the wording situation at that time and the wording situation now, according to the wording method at that time, these two words are correct, but now people do seem to be wrong.

Because in the original way of writing, the word "rich" did not have the above point in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the "chapter" in the Sui and Tang dynasties also passed through the word "day" vertically, so Ji Xiaolan did not make a typo, but showed his rich knowledge.

When Ji Xiaolan inscribed for Confucius, the chapter of the article put up its head, which means that the article is all over the world, and the rich word of wealth has no point, indicating that wealth has no head.

In fact, these two words are not typos, they are just vulgar characters. It was only later that the Chinese characters were simplified. These words are all eliminated.

Because the typos above do not affect the effect of the overall couplet very much, but rather set off the couplet differently, and another important reason is to commemorate Ji Xiaolan, so everyone did not change it.

Because people think that this couplet is very precious, if it is replaced, it will lose its own value, which is something that people do not want to see.

Because Ji Xiaolan wrote a little less rich characters, which shows that there is no end to wealth, and the chapter words of the articles written are finally written vertically to the top, which shows that poetry and books are all over the world.

Viewers who have watched the TV series "Iron Tooth Bronze Tooth Ji Xiaolan" know that Ji Xiaolan is a knowledgeable Qing official, and he is also very famous in history, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty at that time ordered him to be responsible for revising the "Siku Quanshu", so Ji Xiaolan is an ancient university tyrant, and under his leadership, the huge book repair project finally achieved complete success, but some people think that although Ji Xiaolan is a very decent scholar, there will be times when he makes mistakes, so the inscription he wrote to the Confucius Temple is a typo.

Confucius is a very powerful thinker, founder of Confucianism, and writer in Chinese history, and his works written in his life have deeply influenced countless Han people, and his cultural ideas are all over the world. When Confucius died, people built a Confucius temple in his hometown to commemorate him. Confucius was known as the world's first scholar during his lifetime, and naturally became the idol of many literati and writers, and many people wanted to write about the inscription work of the Confucian Temple, because it was a very glorious thing.

However, everyone still invited Ji Xiaolan, a scholar of the Qing Dynasty, to write an inscription on the Confucian Temple.

This couplet seems to be neat and ingenious, but after visiting the Confucian Temple, people who are quite knowledgeable suddenly find that the two words in the couplet are biased, because the two words are suspected to be written wrongly, specifically the rich characters in the upper couplet do not have the above point, and the lower radical of the chapter in the lower couplet is "early" and "overwritten".

One is that the rich characters have no dots, and the other is that the chapter is written through the head, could this be that the craftsman accidentally made a mistake when making the couplet according to the original sentence? This is almost impossible, and even if it was wrong at the time, the scholars who accepted it would have been able to see the clue and let the craftsmen redo it.

Judging from this, it means that Ji Xiaolan deliberately made a mistake, why did he, as a scholar of the Qing Dynasty, make such a low-level mistake in writing?

If you want to fully understand whether the scholar is really wrong, you have to find out from the profound Chinese characters in China, as we all know, Chinese characters are the most complex and connotative characters in the world, especially the traditional Chinese characters are becoming more and more complex, so far many ancient Chinese characters are not commonly used in daily life, resulting in many people do not understand the meaning of the words and do not know how to read.

Therefore, in order to make Chinese characters more understandable, people slowly invented a new simple font called vulgar characters.

This type of font originated from the folk and was invented for the convenience of ordinary people, usually by modifying the radical on the atom to achieve better identification.

At that time, Ji Xiaolan was estimated to be familiar with variant characters, so he deliberately removed a little bit of the rich characters in the upper couplet, and directly "crossed through a day" in the lower couplet to express the meaning he hidden.

After understanding, Ji Xiaolan deliberately mistook the word "rich", in fact, he wanted to metaphorize the meaning of wealth, and the word "chapter" passed through the head, which probably means the meaning of the first day.

It seems that a scholar is a scholar who writes a couplet is very unusual, which makes people feel that it is not wrong, and they unconsciously discover the connotation. In addition, some people think that these two words were the popular "vulgar characters" at that time, which were deliberately done so that the people could understand them, so it proved that many people could understand the meaning of these two words at that time, but we modern people rarely understand them.

Because these two words were written wrongly, this inscription is very interesting, but I can't tell what it means, because there are too many meanings, and I don't know what Ji Xiaolan wants to mean.

Because he did this in order to test the understanding of cultural knowledge for future generations.
