Extended data:

During the construction of the four towers in the early Qing Dynasty, such a miracle happened. In the second year after the completion of the Four Towers, a general named Zhu Lama was shot in the jaw by a cannon while leading his troops to besiege Jinzhou, and died on the spot.

At this time, Huang Taiji, who was commanding the battle at the front line, was very sad to hear the news, so he gave Jin Song, the Lama of Pearl, a mattress, a python quilt and other royal objects, and prepared to send him back to Shengjing for burial. But three days later, Lama Zhu miraculously came back to life.

Huang taiji believes that this is the result of the protection of the gods, and he also believes that Zhu Lama is a natural person. So after he was injured, he was appointed to preside over the construction of the four pagodas in Shengjing. After the completion of the four pagodas, the Lama Zhu was given a high reward.

Then emperor Qianlong wrote a plaque for the four halls and hung it on the main hall of the four halls. Yong Guang Temple is a group of kind gods, yanshou temple is Jin Su Xiangguang, Guangci Temple is the other side of Hong Xin, and Horyuji is the Golden Mirror Garden.
