China Go Celebrities in Past Dynasties
With the rise and development of Weiqi, there have been some excellent national players in the past dynasties, among which Wang in the Tang Dynasty, Huang Longshi in the Song Dynasty and He Shibi in the Qing Dynasty are the most famous. These representatives of Weiqi national players in the past dynasties enriched the treasure house of Weiqi in China with their exquisite chess skills and wrote a brilliant chapter for the development history of Weiqi in China. When Wang, the first master in the Tang Dynasty, arrived in the Tang Dynasty, the national movement flourished and developed, and the level of Go in the whole era was greatly improved compared with that in the Jin Dynasty. Many Go masters have emerged, such as Wang, Zheng, Yang, Wang, Wei Yandou, Wang Feng, Gu Shiyan and Jia Xuan. Among them, Wang in Xuanzong period of Tang Dynasty is the most famous. Wang was born in the reign of Wu Zetian, the son of a poor farmer. He has been chopping wood since he was a child. Because he is hardworking, the firewood he cuts is always piling up, so he takes the name of "Accumulated Salary"-Wang Siwei is agile, smart and studious. When he went into the mountains to cut firewood, he often watched monks in temples in the mountains play chess, and soon mastered the mystery of Go. Seeing that he is extremely clever and superb in chess, and has no opponent in the mountain village, people collected some silver coins and gave him a good horse to encourage him to go to Wei Taiyuan's house to participate in the Go game. At this time, Feng Wang, a national chess player, established himself in Jingu Garden, Jiuyanlou, Vision Wei, Taiyuan, and his chess skills were invincible in the world. At that time, the famous Go players came from all walks of life, but most of them were vulnerable. Only the young king stood up. He played nine wins, five to four in three games with Feng and Wang Lian, and went home with honor. This is the famous "Nine innings of Jinguyuan" in history. The nine-game chessboard is ups and downs, and the game is fierce and wonderful, so Han Wo, a poet at the end of the Tang Dynasty, once said in a poem that "you can't see the eye disease in the nine-game". It can be seen how thrilling the fighting between the two sides is.
