During the Northern Song Dynasty, Shu (Sichuan) produced a kind of fine-quality natural silk called Shu Su. A man named Shao Zizhong framed a piece of Shu silk into a long scroll with a black silk strip woven on it. He only wrote a few sentences at the end of the scroll and left the beginning of the scroll free for famous people to write poems and leave their descendants. For three generations, no one dared to write. Because the texture of silk fabrics is rough and sluggish, it is difficult to write on it, so people who are not very skilled do not dare to care about it. Until the third year of Yuanyou in the Northern Song Dynasty (1088 AD) when Mi Fu was thirty-eight years old, Mi Fu "did his duty" when he saw it. He wrote freely and vigorously, as if he was like a fish in water. He wrote on it He composed a poem of five to seven words and eight words by himself, which is called "Shu Su Tie". Because silk fabrics are not easily susceptible to ink, there are many dead pens in this volume, making the ink color throughout the text vary from dark to light, making it even more exciting and moving, like a thirsty man rushing to a spring. This volume was collected by famous collectors such as Xiang Yuanbian, Dong Qichang, and Wu Ting in the Ming Dynasty. It fell into the hands of Gao Shiqi, Wang Hongxu, and Fu Heng in the Qing Dynasty. It later entered the Qing Dynasty and is now in the National Palace Museum in Taiwan.
The structure of "Shu Su Tie" is strange and straightforward, flexible and flexible, effective in scaling, upright and straight, beautiful and tall in shape, elegant in style, casual in layout, and neither shirt nor shoes. The pen is swayed vertically and horizontally, with penetrating and jumping, both square and round, strong and soft. The hidden edge is slightly sharp, and the exposed edge is also subtle. The pen is drooped and closed, and it stops abruptly, like a sharp knife cutting. The hanging needle is closed and there is a positive feeling. Side, either curved or straight; clear lifting and pressing, strong and firm pulling thread; thick and slender, neither perverse nor rough, middle or side, neither dry nor moist. In terms of composition, there is a strong contrast between compact stipples and large sections of blank space. Heavy strokes and soft lines appear alternately. Fluent strokes and stagnant strokes complement each other. The dynamics of the wind, the formation of horses, and the calm and graceful tranquility are perfectly combined. , forming the unique composition of "Shu Su Tie". In short, the straightforward brushwork, strange structures, and neutral layout have washed away the peaceful and simple calligraphy style since the Jin and Tang Dynasties, creating an exciting, joyful, and energizing artistic conception. Therefore, a high-ranking scholar from the Qing Dynasty once wrote a poem praising this post: "In the world of Sichuan weaving plain bird silk, Mi Dian Shu Maiou Yu sect. Traveling in and out of the Wei and Jin Dynasties is innocent, and the wind, Qiang, and horses are absolutely joyful." Dong Qichang wrote in the postscript of "Shu Su Tie": "This volume is like a lion fighting an elephant. It goes with all its strength and should be regarded as a lifelong cooperation."
