Narrative Prose of the Pavilion in the South of the Yangtze River

There is a wind coming to xi

The pavilion is also called the pavilion. In ancient Chinese, "Qi" is the same as "Qi". Qi and Shuo Wen Jie Zi Duan Yucai pointed out: "Or make a mountain. Support sound. In the name of Lushan Mountain. " He also said, "cities can be divided." There is no mountain in the pavilion. Qishan is in the west of Chang 'an, now Qishan County, in Baoji. Qishan is the residence of Emperor Yan and Evonne, Zhou Shi, and the birthplace of Huangdi Neijing and Zhouyi. It is also famous in history. Understanding the word "ambiguity" is a multi-channel and a fork in the road. "Two different things" are recorded in Erya Shi Ming, and it is the most acceptable explanation to look at the meaning of "building pavilions with different roads".

Some people think that the place name of "Qiting" comes from "Chiting", but Chiting and Qiting are at least 60 miles apart. Gu Zuyu's Minutes of Reading Historical Records in Qing Dynasty (Volume 76) records: "Chiting City is ten miles southeast of the county seat. There is Chiting River. In the fifteenth year of Song Yuanjia, eighteen counties were set up in Manyi, Henan Province, and Hongguan was one of them. He is also a Chiting person who is one of the five water men in Xiyang. " He also said: "Qiting City is 70 miles west of the county seat, and Qiting County is between Qi and Liang, which is also one of the pretty counties. Today is Qiting Town, which used to be bordered by Huanggang and Huangpi. " Chiting River, Li Daoyuan said in "Notes on Water Classics": "When lifting water, it is under Chiting in the southeast, which is called Chiting Water." It can be seen that Chiting and Qiting, one by the water in the southeast of the county and the other by the water in the southwest of the county, are not the same thing at all. Due to the limited existing historical materials, it is very difficult to research the origin of the name change of the pavilion.

There is a far-reaching net article that says: "The pavilion is located in the name of the mountain, and later someone built a pavilion in the mountain to do business, so it was named the pavilion." This is probably a close combination of the words "qi" and "qi", but I still have doubts about this rumor. Because there is no so-called "mountain" in the pavilion, there is no record about it since ancient times. In addition, Mr. Li's teacher once put forward the origin of another statement.

When the master was alive, he once chatted and said, "Qiting City is the land of phoenix, named after Fengqi Gaogang." The former teacher is a famous resident of the pavilion, who has been practicing medicine for more than 60 years and is a household name in the pavilion. He has never left Qiting since he was a child, and he also likes to collect anecdotes about Qiting. My basic understanding of diaosi began in Yu Xiansheng. ..

Qiting once set up Qiting County during the Qi and Liang Dynasties, and I wonder if it was built at that time. However, during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, due to the rampant bandits, the county magistrate was set up in the pavilion. In order to resist bandits and thieves, Cheng Jun led the villagers to cut down the Stone Wengcheng and overhauled it during the reign of Qing Daoguang and Tongzhi. The wall is thick and high, with a circumference of 6 miles, and there are trenches below. There are five gates (East Gate, West Gate, South Gate, Xiaonan Gate and North Gate) on the 28th floor, and the city is located on Gaogang. A high hill, before the diversion of the water elevator, under the east gate wall is a soup elevator for big ships to cruise. Su Dongpo came from Huangzhou to visit Chen Jichang, who lived in seclusion, and landed here by boat. On the ruins of the ancient city wall at the east gate of the pavilion today, you can also see water stains soaked in water. Xinghua Village and Yanchifan are in the north of the town, and Yujiazhai is in the south, all of which are endless flat land. Only the west of the town is backed by Jiuluo Mountain. The whole terrain, facing the river in front and the mountains in the back, is open and flat on both sides, like a phoenix spreading its wings. It is said that the phoenix eye of Qiting City is in the west gate, so the people in the west gate are also called "Fengqimen", and the word "phoenix" in its stone carvings is still there.

The Book of Songs, Volume I says: "Feng Huangming is gone, he is in a high position. Wutongsheng, in the morning. " Phoenix is a divine bird. According to legend, it is neither a phoenix tree nor a treasure. Judging from the historical development, the pavilion is indeed a treasure trove of feng shui. Du, Su Dongpo, Zhang Zhidong, etc. All of them have forged an indissoluble bond with the pavilion, so it is not surprising that the famous and beautiful apricot blossom village is close to it.

Therefore, according to the former teacher's meaning, the earliest name of Qiting is Qiting, which means "Fengqi". I think: in the evolution of history, from "dwelling" to "ambiguity", there have been many lost stories.

This guess is not necessarily impossible.

There are three sages temples in the pavilion.

There are three tombs, namely, Zhang Hanzi and Gan, and three temples, namely, Song Xian, Qing Duan and Zhongjie.

Song Xian Temple was built in Kangxi period (A.D. 1673) and was built by Jackie Chan. The Qing Palace was built in the Qianlong period (AD 1755) and was built by Qiu Cishu. Zhongjie Temple was built in Xianfeng period (A.D. 1859) and was proposed by Wang Shengsan, a Tongzhi of Huangzhou, with a history of 200 years. Among them, Song Xian Temple has the most far-reaching influence.

Yu Chenglong moved to Huangzhou Tongzhi in the eighth year of Kangxi (A.D. 1669) and lived in Qiting. At that time, the pavilion was tough, theft was prevalent and public security was chaotic. After Yu Chenglong arrived at Qiting, on the one hand, he deeply understood the sufferings of the people, on the other hand, he adopted the policy of combining leniency with severity, and showed no mercy to the first evil. For ordinary people who were forced to steal by life, he gave priority to education and probation. Yu Chenglong thinks: "It is not our nature to be a thief. Either forced by greedy lawsuits or occupied by powerful families. My husband and I were hungry and cold, wrong-minded, fell into the sea of suffering, squatted down with our heads in our hands, and thought in the quiet night. Don't you have a little heart to change? " In Jackie Chan's eyes, there must be a reason why most bandits fell here. To get rid of bandits, we should not only let the people live and work in peace and contentment, but also carry out moral education, correct social atmosphere, advocate ancient kindness and fundamentally change folk customs.

In the spring of A.D. 1673, he organized a group to pay a visit to the tomb in Xinghua Village. When all the bones he saw were lost, he was very disappointed. So he and the squires conspired to build several houses on the old site of Chen Jichang in Xinghua Village. First, Song Xian Temple was built to worship Chen Jichang and Su Dongpo and educate the world with their moral sentiments. Then the Scholar's Academy was established, and the famous teachers were selected in person, so that the young people in the pavilion had a place to study, and they sacrificed to the sages in four seasons and eight festivals to experience the spiritual demeanor of their predecessors. Yu Chenglong often gives lectures among them. In the early years of Kangxi, the world was cold, which may be the most realistic ideal of a local ruler: to inspire people to be kind, study hard and be a person who is beneficial to society with the spirit of Song Xian. During the Qianlong period, Songxian Temple was destroyed by Diao Monks. In order to commemorate Yu Chenglong's historical contribution to Qiting, Qiu Cishu, assistant minister of Qiting in Huangzhoufu Town, rebuilt Songxian Temple and built "Qingduan Temple" beside it. "Qing Duan" is the title posthumously awarded by Emperor Kangxi after Jackie Chan's death, which means "integrity and honesty".

In A.D. 1859, the massive Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement had begun to end, and the Xiang army led by Zeng Guofan recovered Hubei and Jiangxi and approached Tianjing (Nanjing). In order to commemorate the soldiers who died in the battle against the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, especially to commemorate the Xiang generals Li, Sheng San and King Sima of Huangzhou, the Loyalty Festival Temple was built on the other side of the Songxian Temple.

Li, a native of Xiangxiang, Hunan, is from Yudian. The Qing dynasty called him "the outstanding man of Xiang army". Li defeated the Taiping rebels many times in the battle with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. "In seven years, we recovered more than 40 cities and fought more than 600 games", which is famous in the Xiang army. A.D. 1858 1 1, sanhe town, Bozhou, Anhui Province (now Feixi, Hefei), where 6,000 soldiers fought against 100,000 troops in Chen Yucheng, all his 5,000 elites were wiped out. Li was calm in the face of danger and said to his men, "Ten years of military prosperity will damage national prestige. After many battles, I didn't expect to survive when I left the team. I am dead today, I don't want to be a follower! " After the news of Li's death reached Beijing, Emperor Xianfeng "cried with tears and said, I am a good general, but I can't give orders!" . History said that at that time, Xiangxiang was "mourning for every family, and mourning for every household".

Li died in Luzhou. Why did he set up a memorial hall in Xinghua Village? One is/kloc-0. In March and April of 858, Li recovered Macheng and lost land, which was deeply loved by the Ephedra people. In addition, Xinghua Village is a scenic spot in Jingchu, where "Ronghua Fukizo has gathered for thousands of years; The establishment of a shrine in Xinghua Village is the best publicity and praise for them.

Zhongjie Temple was built in September of the third year of Xianfeng (AD 1859), less than one year after Li's death. Zong Jeffery Ji said in "Rebuilding the Temple of Song Xian in the Pavilion and Building the Hall of Loyalty and Righteousness": "Later generations cherish the traces and worship Song Xian; The meaning of pushing the end, with Li Zhongjie; It is often shown that Fangshan's local customs are effective and cultivated. Is today's move beneficial to the people of the world? " In short, this is the significance of building temples and monuments at that time.

From Songxian Temple to Qingduan Temple and then to Zhongjie Temple, it actually expresses the yearning of ordinary people for a stable and happy life. Although these three temples are gone now, their spirit lives on forever. I believe that one day, in Xinghua Village, its true meaning will reappear.

Fumen street looking for traces

There is a street called "Fumen Street" at the west gate of Qiting Town, specifically "Er Fu Yamen Street". In the history of China, besides a state capital, there is a second house, which is located in a small town. I'm afraid this pavilion is unique.

Wang Shiyuan, a scholar in A Qing, called the pavilion "the key to Huang Chu" in his textual research on the ancient site of the pavilion. "Bi" is the gateway and "key" is the switch, which shows the importance of geographical location. Historically, the pavilion is not only an ancient road of light and yellow, but also favored by bandits because of the rapids in front of the town and the western hills behind it. Before the middle of the Ming Dynasty, because the government was located in Macheng, when bandits robbed the county town, they had already fled or drilled into the town along the western hills behind the water, and the people were extremely angry. In order to maintain the social order of the pavilion, during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, the pavilion had its first resident judge. The first Chief Justice was named Loridan. After taking office, he led the people of Tiaoting to build the city wall. Later, during the Wanli period, Han Huan, the chief judge, revised it, but it was not the second house at that time. Qi Tingzhen established Er Fu during the Shunzhi period. In the second year of Shunzhi (A.D. 1645), the Qing government ruled that the pavilion was changed to Er Fu, Huangzhou, and Tongzhi was the prime minister in charge of local affairs. In the early years of Kangxi, due to the rebellion in Wu Sangui and social unrest, Qiting Street was even more mixed with snakes and insects, and thieves and bandits robbed it, making the people feel scared and miserable. Huangzhou Magistrate sent Tongzhi Yu Chenglong to guard the pavilion to protect the environment and people.

"Biography of Yu Chenglong in Qing Dynasty" said: "There are many thieves in the pavilion, who dares to steal during the day?" What kind of situation is it that a place dares to steal in broad daylight, but dare not do anything with it? Therefore, after Yu Chenglong arrived at the pavilion, he made great efforts and thought of many ways to guard against theft. The story of the thief is still talked about by people.

Record upload: At that time, there were eight big characters on the front wall of Erfu yamen, namely "Megatron Three Realms, Ruling Eight Cities". There are three doors in the lobby of yamen, and there are loyal ministers' shrines. There are prisons and three classes and six rooms on both sides, and the corridor leads directly to the three halls. The first, second and third halls are two feet apart, with East Garden and West Garden on both sides, and floating pavilions and watchtowers around them. It seems that this.

Now Er Fu yamen has been destroyed in weeds, leaving only a narrow bluestone lane and some dilapidated houses on both sides of the lane. The dilapidated bluestone road, the roadside drains are covered with faint moss. Houses are very ordinary private houses with different architectural styles. These buildings can roughly show the architectural characteristics of different periods. The once magnificent yamen was covered by those houses and never found again. There is only one ancient well in the north of the street, and there is still cool water for the people to wash. Fumen Street has become unusual, unusual, and no one would have thought that it used to be the political, economic and cultural center of the pavilion without revealing the secret.

History is a rich book. Nowadays, although it is cold in Fumen Street, the overwhelming past is like an old song in the storm. Some flesh-and-blood stories are often awakened by memory when they are sung. Looking up, there is always a sigh of impermanence.
