Although they sit in a row, they have their own movements and are not rigid. The fifth paragraph depicts the scene of all the guests talking with the singer in Han Xizai; The origin of this painting: Han Xizai (902-970 AD), the hero of this painting, was born in Beihai, Weizhou (now Weifang, Shandong) in the Five Dynasties. In the later Tang Dynasty, scholars were promoted in the same light-year period, and the fame of articles, calligraphy and painting was shocked for a while. Because his father Guangsi was in charge of some things, Xi fled to Jiangnan and went to Nantang. He has experienced three masters, namely, Doctor, Li Jing (a master in Chinese) and Li Yu (a post-master). He is an assistant minister in Chinese literature and a bachelor of Zheng Guangtang. Han Xizai's apartment after he settled in Nanjing, where this painting took place, is in the area of Zhonghua Gate in Nanjing today. "Tongzhi Shangjiangzhi" said: "Qijiashan is outside the Jubaomen in the south of Jiangning City, and Hanxi in the south of Tang Dynasty lives here". Han is bohemian and has more than forty concubines. When all the salary given to him by the imperial court was divided up by the concubines, he put on rags, put on a bamboo basket, dressed as a beggar, and went to the place where the concubines lived to beg for food, thinking that he was laughing. Han Xizai, a newcomer to the Southern Tang Dynasty, was deeply favored by Li Jing, the leader of the Southern Tang Dynasty. After Li Yu succeeded to the throne, he poisoned many northern ministers many times because he suspected northern officials. Under the situation of increasing pressure on Nantang in the later Zhou Dynasty, Li Yu became more and more headstrong, and the infighting of the whole Nantang ruling group intensified and was in jeopardy. In this unfavorable environment, Han Xizai, an official living in higher vocational colleges, took a wild and unruly attitude to protect himself. But Li Yu still doesn't trust him. He sent Gu and Zhou Wenju from the Academy of Painting to his home to inquire about Han Xizai's activities, and ordered them to faithfully show him the pictures they saw. Guhe Zhou Wenju arrived at Han Xizai's home and greeted Han Xizai's banquet at home. Han Xizai, smarter than he thought, certainly understood their purpose. During the whole banquet, Han Xizai gave a hearty performance in the form of not asking current events, indulging in singing and dancing, and getting drunk ... Ancient Hong Zhong remembered the whole banquet of Han Xizai's family with his agile insight and amazing memory, and painted immediately after returning. After Li Yu saw this painting. Therefore, a masterpiece handed down from generation to generation has been passed down to this day. Gu later painted a five-paragraph scroll. This picture is the last paragraph. This is a drunken dance. After the strike, everyone will take a look at drunkenness and drag prostitutes to laugh and play. Standing alone with a hand raised was Han Xizai, the host of the banquet. Gu's paintings are not only designed to resemble each other, so that the later masters can see who the people in the paintings are at a glance, but also show the expressions and personalities of everyone at that time very realistically. As far as painting characters is concerned, this painting has reached a high artistic level. So for thousands of years, all the books that recorded this painting have admired it.
