2. What is the history of the only Yuefei Temple in China? The Yue Temple in Shengci Town of Jingjiang was originally called Yuewang Temple, commonly known as Wang Yue Temple. It was built when Yue Fei was alive, and it was the earliest in the world, so it was called "the first Yue Fei Temple in the world".
"History of Song Dynasty" records: In the fourth year of Jian Yan in the Southern Song Dynasty (A.D. 1 130), "Zhao Fei retreated to Tongtai, and if there is a purpose, it can be defended. If not, he will protect the people in the sandbar and wait for an opportunity to hide. Fei Yitai had no danger to rely on, surrendered to Zishi, fought in Nanba Bridge, defeated the nomads, crossed the people in the sand and flew to the Qijing Temple to take refuge. Nomads dare not approach.
"Tong here refers to Nantong; Thailand refers to Taizhou, Shazhou and Shashang refer to Jingjiang, and the people are refugees who follow Yue Fei. During the Southern Song Dynasty, Jin Bing invaded the Central Plains, and Yue Fei was then a marshal, leading the troops to resist.
The army led by Yue Fei is invincible and invincible. However, the Southern Song Dynasty adopted the policy of betraying the country and seeking glory. It wanted to make peace with Jin Bing, and issued 12 gold medals in one day, ordering Yue Fei to return to Lin 'an (now Hangzhou). Yue Fei was helpless and had to lead the troops back to the south.
In desperation, the local people followed the retreat of Yue Fei's army and retreated to Jingjiang area along the Yangtze River. At this time, Yue Fei was worried about the country and the people and couldn't sleep well.
One day, he was busy late at night, strolled out of the tent and saw this land around Gushan, with mountains and ports, bordering on the Yangtze River and a hundred miles in Ma Pingchuan. After reclamation, it is suitable for planting mulberry and grain, and it can be built into a land of fish and rice. At dawn, Yue Fei called everyone together and said, "Don't cross the river with me." Shazhou is a good place. You can live here. "I hope that there will be no floods and droughts and military disasters in Shazhou for 800 years."
Yue Fei's words inspired everyone to settle down. They sent Yue Fei to a bridge near the harbor and had to stop and watch Yue Fei disappear.
This bridge was later named "Wang Yue Bridge". Later, in order to cherish the memory of Yue Fei, the common people built an ancestral temple next to the Wang Yue Bridge, which was called the "Temple of Yue Wang Sheng" and was dedicated to the memorial tablet of Yue Fei's longevity. Later generations also called it the "Temple of Wu Mu Wang Sheng".
1968, Wang Yue Temple was rebuilt, and Mr. Zhao Puchu wrote the book "Yuezhongwu Musheng Temple". The temple is a Song-style structure, with carved beams and painted buildings, cornices and upturned corners. It's magnificent.
The statue of Yue Fei in the temple is lifelike, and there is a trace of bitterness and sadness in the heroic spirit. It is said that this is the only sad statue of Yue Fei in China. At that time, Yue Fei was sentenced to death in Dali Temple Prison on charges of "unwarranted".
The news reached Matosha (Jingjiang was called Matosha in ancient times), and Jingjiang people embarked on the bridge that bid farewell to Yuefei in those years. Looking at the south of the Yangtze River, they were full of thoughts, so the "Wang Yue Bridge" was renamed "April Bridge".
3. A brief introduction to the history of Chen ancestral hall in Hetaitian, Gaoyao, Zhaoqing.
According to the old man in the village, the Chen ancestral hall in Duita Village was built in the middle and late Qing Dynasty. It is an ancestral temple building in China, located in Duitian Village, Hetai Town, Gaoyao District, Zhaoqing City. The temple faces south, and the buildings such as zhaobi, patio, main hall, back hall and big stage are gradually arranged according to the central axis. There are cloisters in front of the main hall and wings on both sides. Its overall structure is relatively complete, and it is an art complex with strong local characteristics in Guangdong.
Chen's Ancestral Hall concentrates on the decorative arts of Guangdong folk architecture, and skillfully uses decorative arts such as wood carving, brick carving, stone carving, gray sculpture, pottery sculpture and painting. Wide range of subjects, vivid modeling, rich colors and exquisite skills. The carving techniques are concise and extensive, finely crafted, reflecting each other and revealing magnificence in solemnity and elegance. This is a splendid hall of folk decorative arts.
Regrettably, since the fund-raising renovation in 2005, due to disrepair, decades of war and man-made destruction, years of wind and rain erosion, wall peeling, cornice breakage, roof leakage, termite erosion, weak village collective economy and lack of effective management, the ancestral hall surface will be destroyed. It is urgent to raise funds to rebuild the Chen ancestral hall. I hope that after reading this article, Chen's clansmen can brainstorm and help generously, so that this artistic treasure can reappear at an early date.

6. The history and culture of Hu's ancestral hall.
Ancestral temple culture has its own characteristics and special functions. It is the masterpiece of ancient folk architecture experts and the crystallization of the wisdom of skilled craftsmen. Some ancestral temples have the function of "harmony between man and nature" and are the harmonious unity of humanity and ecology.
From the connotation point of view, Jixi ancient ancestral hall has become a school that unites people's hearts, educates and cultivates people and an organizer that promotes the construction of rural social public welfare undertakings in ancient and modern society through the mechanism of worshipping ancestors and promoting ancestors' morality. One is to know the roots and unite with our own people. The second is to guide Xiu De, an upright man. The outstanding feature of Jixi ancient ancestral temple culture is that many "family rules" and "family instructions" standing in the ancestral temple and written in genealogy are to educate future generations to pay attention to social morality, family morality, political official morality and business morality. Advocate filial piety, honesty, honesty and forbearance. It can be said that the ancestral temple was an important place for moral education in ancient times. Judging from the moral content advocated, many things are still Chinese traditional virtues worthy of inheritance and promotion today, which are not contrary to socialist spiritual civilization. The third is to cultivate talents and worship ancestors. In ancient times, Jixi had "two more": many officials and many vendors. This is due to the role of ancient ancestral temple culture. When worshipping ancestors, those who enter the ancestral hall should have fame, except their elders, and obviously encourage reading, talent and fame, so that natural talents are abundant, and the Hu ancestral hall in Longchuan is a typical representative. In the history of Longchuan Village, there have been 20 scholars and juren.
Hu culture
The Hu family in Longchuan, Jixi moved here from the aristocratic families in the Central Plains in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and lived in groups. Since the Song Dynasty, influenced by the emblem culture, the family advocates Confucianism, attaches importance to education, and takes farming and reading as partners, and both Jia and Confucianism have developed. The people are knowledgeable and have accumulated a lot of talents. In the Ming Dynasty alone, there were more than 10 Jinshi in the family, which was called "Jinshi Village". Among them were Jinshi in the 14th year of Ming Chenghua (1478), Jinshi in the Reform Movement of 1898, Prince Shao Bao Zhong Guan, Nanjing official Khufu, Jinshi in the 17th year of Ming Jiajing (1538), and Hu Zongxian, an official of Taibao Ministry of War. The Hu family in Longchuan has also made great achievements in medicine and commerce.
Longchuan legend
Longchuan is the ancient name of Kengkou Village. There is Longxu Mountain in front of the village, and a stream (called Chuan) passes through the village, which was called Longchuan in ancient times. Later generations thought that the outlet of the stream (also known as the pit) flowed into the Dengyuan River, and the dragon could open the stream, so it was changed to a pit. This legend is still circulating among the people.
Legend of ancestral temple
According to legend, Longchuan is boat-shaped, and the whole village is surnamed Hu. If a ship sails on the sea, it can't stop without an iron anchor. So a Ding family from another village was invited to live in this temple. Ding family was like an iron anchor nailed to a big ship. However, this single biography of Ding surname 16 generation is a "mystery". There is more than one "mystery" in the ancient temple. The ancient temple has been overhauled for more than 400 years, but no spiders can be found. Some people say that the ancient temple is related to the selection of high-quality wood, while others say that the key is that the ancient temple is located in a treasure trove of geomantic omen.
7. The history of Jia Peng Temple in Yingde lies on a mountain about 35 meters high. The whole village is built on the mountain, divided into three floors, and there is only one stone step road in the north. There is only one small door on each floor leading to the upper floor, and the other three sides are cliffs, which highlights the defensive function of the building. It is the Jia Peng Temple in Kengba Village, huanghua town City, yingde city, located in Yingxi Qite Peak Forest Corridor Scenic Area, which is one of the five tourist hotlines made by Qingyuan. From a distance, it looks a bit like the Potala Palace, which the locals used to call "Little * * *".
Pengjia Temple is actually the ancestral hall of the local Peng family, facing south, and the whole building is closed and self-contained. The house is divided into three floors from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, except for a stone step road with an average width of about one and a half meters in the north, which is paved with limestone and has been paved to the top floor. The other three sides are cliffs.
This ancient village is divided into three layers. There are five houses on the first floor, three facing south and one on the east and west sides. Houses are built with unplanned lime stone to a height of three meters, then with blue bricks, then with mud bricks, and the top is covered with ordinary blue bricks. The gate is made of granite stone, and the lintel is engraved with four characters of "Knowing the Righteousness and Knowing the Square" in regular script, on which there are three-star pictures, Fu Guitu with flowers and Songhe Yannian pictures (199 1 redraw); There is a observation window on each side of the gate.
Climb the stairs to the second floor, and you will find the library. * * * There are five houses with a hall in the middle, and there are landscape paintings and ancient poetry murals under the eaves of the hall. A small bungalow was built outside the study room. There is a patio in the middle and a goldfish pond (destroyed) on both sides of the patio. On the three walls on the patio side, plum blossoms, chrysanthemums, figures and other patterns are carved with mortar, and there is a large unglazed mud embryo flower window under the relief. On the left side of this floor, there are sentry towers and turrets.
The top floor is the Shi Peng Ancestral Temple, and the architectural style is the hard top hot pot wall. Like the first floor, there are five houses, three facing south, one facing east and one facing west. There is a plaque on the lintel of the first door, which reads "Dr. Zhong Xian from Chifeng" and inscribed "The First Year of Guangxu" (A.D. 1875). The second building is the ancestral hall, with murals or carved grass patterns on the eaves. The wall of this floor is blue brick or brick masonry with many observation holes.
From the architectural structure, Pengjiaci highlights its powerful defense function. According to the inscription written by Tao (then magistrate of Yingde County) for Peng, Peng Baoguang and Peng Yingneng, bandits were rampant in Jiayin (AD 1854) and Mingjiang (now Huanghua), and the people were in poverty. The Peng brothers volunteered to cooperate with the officers and men to suppress bandits. In recognition of the Peng brothers, Todd presented the plaque of "Unity of Knowledge and Action".
Some experts believe that at present, in Britain and Germany, only one ancestral temple is built on the mountain to highlight its defensive function. It will play a positive role in studying the ancient buildings in this city and how to resist foreign invasion.
199565438+February, Jia Peng Temple was listed as "yingde city Cultural Relics Protection Unit".
8. Historical Legend of Zhuangzi Ancestral Temple Zhuangzi Ancestral Temple was founded in the first year of Song Yuanfeng (1078). Cheng Wangjing, the magistrate and minister of Mengcheng County at that time, felt that there was no place to commemorate Zhuangzi in Zhuangzi's hometown for more than 1000 years, so he raised funds to build an ancestral temple for Zhuangzi, and invited his friend Su Shi to write an article to commemorate it.
Su Shi wrote "Zhuangzi Ancestral Temple" and said, "Zhuangzi is a Mongolian and tastes like a lacquer garden official." For those who are less than 1,000 years old and have no shrine, Jing Cheng, the county magistrate and secretary, started the shrine and asked to commemorate ... "This ancestral temple was built in the former site of Yadong Lacquer Garden, an old county town on the north bank of the Wohe River. The main buildings are Xiaoyao Hall, Dream Butterfly Building and Fish Watching Platform. Sacrifice every year, never stopped. Zhuangzi Ancestral Temple is included in the complete works of Su Dongpo.
There is a question here, that is, why did Mengcheng, the hometown of Zhuangzi, build a shrine for Zhuangzi in 1000 years?
As we all know, Zhuangzi lived at the end of the Warring States Period, and he didn't rule the Western Han Dynasty until 80 years after his death (206). In the Han Dynasty, "a hundred schools of thought were ousted and Confucianism was the only one". Although Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sought Taoism and Huang Lao's skill of preserving health and longevity, he still respected Confucianism politically. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Taoism prevailed, and Laozi's position was established by Taoism. Although Zhuangzi was also revered as the leader of Taoism, his position was far inferior to that of Laozi. During the Wei and Jin Dynasties, Zhuangzi was sought after by metaphysics at that time with his transcendental outlook on life, mysterious outlook on the universe and nihilistic outlook on life, and became famous. However, due to social unrest, it has not yet formed the ethos of building temples for celebrities, so no one has ever built a memorial place for Zhuangzi. In the Tang Dynasty, only Laozi offered sacrifices, not Zhuangzi. Song Zhenzong (998- 1022) believed in Taoism, which was the trend of building Taoist temples in China at that time. In the eighth year of Yuanfeng in Song Shenzong (1068- 1078), Zongshen died of illness, and his mother, Empress Dowager Gao, fell down because Sun Zhezong was young. Empress Dowager Cixi was a Xiaojian from Mengcheng. The clever county magistrate Wang Jing built the ancestral temple in Zhuangzi at this time, which was not only the need of historical development, but also in line with the social fashion at that time, and even more meant to express loyalty and celebration to Empress Dowager Cixi.
