Extended data:
Su Huang Camouflage, namely "Song Sijia"-Su Shi, Huang Tingjian, Mi Fei and Cai Jing, these four people are considered to be the calligraphers who can best represent the achievements of calligraphy in the Song Dynasty.
Some scholars believe that Cai should be Cai Xiang, a calligrapher in the early Northern Song Dynasty. However, as far as seniority is concerned, if Cai is Cai Xiang, Cai should be ahead of Su. "Su, Huang and Mi" are all arranged according to the age. As a person at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, Cai Jing was a Cai, so there should be no dispute.
Later generations think that Cai refers to Cai Xiang, because Cai Jing's reputation is too smelly, leading to national subjugation, and its historical position cannot be compared with that of the previous dynasty, so later generations prefer to think that Cai refers to Cai Xiang.
Judging from the style of calligraphy, Su Shi is full of ups and downs and innocence; Huang tingjian rises vertically and horizontally, hiding and pulling; Miffy is handsome, bold, calm and happy. They were all good at learning from the ancients, full of innovative spirit and unique book style, and were highly respected by people at that time. They are listed in four schools, and there is no objection to this. It is generally believed that Cai refers to Cai Xiang (). His calligraphy is based on the Jin and Tang Dynasties, paying attention to the ancient meaning and statutes.
