Who is Cheng Siyuan writing a tombstone for?

Cheng Siyuan is from Binyang, Guangxi. He once erected a tombstone for a fellow villager. This man's name is Molliffe, and he is also a patriot. He has served as director of the editorial department of Guangxi Daily and secretary of the Ministry of National Defense, and organized vigilante groups in Binyang to resist Japan and eradicate traitors.

More than 30 years later, Mo Lifu's family moved his body to Binyang, his hometown, and asked Cheng Siyuan to write a tombstone. As the vice chairman of CPPCC at that time, he readily agreed. Li Fuling is located at the southern foot of Wuling Lai Zhai Ling, Binyang County, Guangxi. It is said that he fought against the enemy here before he died. The mausoleum is a circular concrete structure. There are two cement pillars not far ahead, which are engraved with "Love the Motherland" and "Anti-Japanese and Anti-traitor" respectively. The tombstone is white marble, with a height of more than 70 cm and a width of 50 cm, engraved with the life story of Mr. Mo Lifu. In the middle of the tombstone are seven Chinese characters "Mr. Morif's Tomb" and the words "Cheng Siyuan" and "1989165438+10/9".

The inscription on Molliffe's tombstone was written by Cheng Siyuan, and the inscription was Wei Ti, which is a common font in stone carvings in the Northern Wei Dynasty. Used on tombstones is the most solemn and dignified. It can be seen from this tombstone that Cheng Siyuan is very accomplished in calligraphy. He has time to practice calligraphy every day. It is said that he wrote millions of words in Wei Ti. In his view, practicing calligraphy is not only practicing calligraphy, but also practicing abdomen, which can prolong life. It is at this level of calligraphy that there will be a story of Cheng Siyuan writing a tombstone.

Where is Cheng Siyuan's former residence?

Cheng Siyuan was born in Dacheng Village, Da Qiao Town, Binyang, Guangxi, and lived here until he was 0/8 years old, so Cheng Siyuan's former residence is still there. In 2008, on the occasion of his centenary birthday, the local government carried out renovation, basically preserved the original appearance, and built an exhibition hall for his former residence.

Cheng Siyuan's former residence, with a building area of 238 square meters, is a typical Lingnan architectural style with yellow walls and blue tiles. This former residence is a three-story residential building, divided into two halls, each with two rooms, which are the houses of Cheng Siyuan's parents, himself and his two brothers. There is a patio in the middle of the two halls, just across it. There are corridors on both sides of the patio, namely the kitchen and the utility room. In other words, there are six rooms in Cheng Siyuan's former residence.

Next to the former residence is his exhibition hall, slightly larger than the former residence, with a construction area of 276 square meters. The exhibition hall was built late, but in order to be integrated with the former residence and have the same appearance, it is also the Lingnan residential style with mud walls and blue tiles. The exhibition hall is divided into six parts, which respectively show Cheng Siyuan's life stories in different periods, such as "joining the army, seeking knowledge from top to bottom", "participating in and discussing state affairs, and unifying thoughts". The exhibits on display are mainly his photos, including work photos and leisure photos, as well as his various work permits, honorary certificates, handwritten calligraphy works and letters. In addition, there are restoration scenes of Cheng Siyuan's Beijing office, including tables and chairs, sofas, dining tables, Four Treasures of the Study and clothes.

Cheng Siyuan's former residence itself is very memorable, and now the newly added exhibition hall is more educational, so it has also become a patriotic education base.

What is the conclusion of the investigation of ancestral graves in Cheng Siyuan?

One hundred meters southeast of Cheng Siyuan's former residence in Binyang, Guangxi, is his ancestral grave and his grandfather's grave. After on-the-spot investigation, it was concluded that Cheng Siyuan was sheltered by the ancestral grave when he later became the official residence of Vice Chairman the National People's Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC).

Cheng Siyuan's ancestral grave is located in a paddy field, surrounded by mountains and with a small basin in the middle. The land where the ancestral grave is located is higher than the surrounding area, and slightly raised upward. According to geomantic omen, this mountain is the compass of Long Mai and Dragon Vein, so it can be called "compass hole". Besides, there is a spring not far from Cheng Siyuan's former residence. According to ancient legends, this terrain has a special geomantic term called "drinking water by phoenix flying". It is said that Cheng Siyuan's former residence is located on the Tiger Hill with excellent geomantic omen.

After investigating the ancestral graves, Feng Shui researchers explained that it is very consistent with the typical characteristics of Pinggang, and "the story is clear from beginning to end, the cave is round, and the characteristics of the cave are obvious". It is said that the ancestral graves of Feng Shui will provide shade for the descendants of senior officials. That's why they made an investigation on the so-called ancestral graves in Cheng Siyuan.

In the conclusion of their investigation, there are some detailed analysis, such as "officials and ghosts are suing here", and the conclusion is that future generations will be officials until they die, which is consistent with Cheng Siyuan's life; For example, there is no special sand around the ancestral grave, and the conclusion is that an official has no power and is in line with his life.

This superstitious geomantic theory is naturally unreliable. Otherwise, why didn't they go to the grave after Cheng Siyuan's death and draw a conclusion, but they couldn't make a prediction before his death?
