2. According to legend, Zhu Shouqian was made king when he was young, and he had a great relationship with his father Zhu Wenzheng, and was praised as "the fifth star in the world" by Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Wenzheng once defended Hongdu to the death and won the final victory, which changed the whole situation at the end of Yuan Dynasty and decided Zhu Yuanzhang's great cause of being king.
3. 1372, Wang Fu, Jingjiang, who was still in Nanjing at that time, sent Zhao Yun, who had a long history, to Guilin to explore the geomantic omen and seek auspicious land. They found that the unique mountain peak in Wanshoutang, where Yuan Shundi moved, rose from the ground, surrounded by mountains and stood tall, which was unique to me and had a natural king's momentum. They quickly decided to build Jingjiang Wang Fu Tower on the site of Wanshou Palace at the south foot of Duxiufeng.
4. At the age of 165438+ 10, 15, Zhu Shouqian, king of Jingjiang, came to Guilin, holding the imperial edict of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming emperor, and his grandfather's memorial tablet, and became the first captaincy of Jingjiang Wang Fu in Guilin.
5. Jingjiang Wang Fu broke ground at 1372 and was completed at 1376. It was the earliest Wang Fu in the Ming Dynasty. That year, Jingjiang Wang Fu also opened a tomb at the southern foot of Yaoshan Mountain in the eastern suburb of Longteng.
6. Jingjiang Wang Fu was built the earliest, partly because its scale was smaller than other official pro-princes' palaces, and there was no round hall, purpose hall and ancillary buildings behind the communication hall, and the city walls were relatively small. However, the other palace buildings were the same as ancestral halls, state and official pro-princes' palaces, which reflected the status of the collateral prince of King Jingjiang.
7. 1393, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of Ming Dynasty ordered the renovation of Jingjiang Wang Fu. The reason for the renovation is not the dilapidated palace, but the change of specifications. This is the largest renovation in the construction history of Jingjiang Wang Fu. Except for the city wall, the West Gate Tower and the ancestral hall, other palaces and yamen have been rebuilt.
8. In June of that year, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the Guangxi department commander Tongzhi Xu Pu, the Ministry of Industry minister Gehan and the eunuch Mao Zhili to preside over the expansion of Jingjiang Wang Fu. "All the palaces and government offices in the palace were rebuilt and completely renewed." Later, the city wall was repaired. More than 30 years earlier than the Forbidden City in Beijing, it resembles Jingjiang Palace in Nanjing Mingnei Palace.
9. At that time, there was a famous natural cave at the west foot of Duxiufeng, formerly known as "Xiyan", which was the place where King Jingjiang worshipped immortals, and it was dedicated to the Xuanwu Emperor and the sixty-jiazi statues, among which the sixty-jiazi statues carved on the cliff were the only ones in China. According to legend, King Jingjiang found a "Taiping Bao Tong" copper coin in the rock, which was considered auspicious and later renamed as "Taiping Rock".
10 and 60 Jiazi are the protectors of the gods, which is what people usually call 60 "Tai Sui". It is said that everyone has his own "Tai Sui", and the year of birth is usually easy to "commit Tai Sui". Therefore, people have the custom of worshipping themselves in the animal year, and also have exquisite gestures and procedures.
1 1. According to the map of Wang Fu drawn by the Ming Dynasty Xuande Edition "Guilin County Records", the rebuilt buildings of Jingjiang Wang Fu Palace are all single eaves, and the four pagodas that have not been rebuilt are all double eaves. Obviously, the specifications of the rebuilt Jingjiang Wang Fu are lower than when it was just built.
12, although Ming Taizu lowered the specifications of Jingjiang Wang Fu, it is not a crime to license its small courtyard to be built from top to bottom. This kind of license is not available in other Wang Fu.
13. Later, Jingjiang Wang Fu experienced the demise of Wen Jian and the princes of Yongle Dynasty. However, in the Yongle era, King Jingjiang still enjoyed the treatment of "Lu regarded the county king as a semi-official prince", but all the titles were "like the county king". By the time Xuande arrived, the situation of King Jingjiang had improved.
14. By the time of orthodoxy, the birthright of collateral prince was basically restored. Following the example of Prince Mi, the imperial court set up officials and bodyguards for King Jingjiang, and conferred titles on those who attacked the prince according to the etiquette of the prince. King Jingjiang was also included in the routine reward for the prince. So King Jingjiang began to invoke the concession in Ming Taizu to build a small quadrangle in the government.
15. During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, Wang Fu, Jingjiang built a sacred temple on Duxiu Peak to protect Long Mai, named Xuanwu Pavilion. Because there is an extremely rare snake-shaped Xuanwu statue of natural turtle in the open air on the left, the word "Shou" is naturally generated on the stone wall on the right, and Xuanwu Pavilion naturally becomes the first of all the giving places in Fiona Fang.
16. Since then, Xuanwu Pavilion has been listed as a royal forbidden area by Jingjiang Wang Fu, because King Jingjiang prayed for good weather and long life. Even in the Qing Dynasty, only a few political celebrities and literary giants were lucky enough to be here.
17. As a vassal's palace, its status is lower than that of the emperor, but higher than that of ordinary subjects and ministers. Therefore, Jingjiang Palace in Ming Dynasty developed to Wanli, and after several generations of repair and expansion, its scale has been very grand, surrounded by huge stones, and it has become a city of its own in Guilin, so it is also called "Jingjiang King City".
