My friend came back from a long distance and invited me to pay homage to his ancestors in Chongqing Jiulong Cemetery. After the service, I strolled through the garden. Occasionally, I see a small monument in rows of graves. Although this tablet is the same and has no features, the book "The Tomb of strict father Taomu Neck" engraved on it has aroused my interest. Although I am ignorant, I like reading miscellaneous books since I was a child. I seem to have seen Tao's name there. After carefully investigating the dates of birth and death, I asked my friend. Paradoxically, he said that this is probably the place where the bones of Mr. Tao, a famous person in 1911, are buried.
20 1 1 is the centenary of the Revolution of 1911, with a long history. On the way home, we talked about the Revolution of 1911 with great interest.
1894165438+10, the pioneer of the bourgeois revolution in China, Honolulu, USA, established the Zhong Xing society. 1In August, 905, Sun Yat-sen, together with members of revolutionary groups such as Huaxing Society, Guangfu Society and Zhong Xing Society, established the China League in Tokyo.
"Expel the Tatars, restore China, establish the Republic of China, and have equal land rights." This is the political program of the League of Nations. In the People's Daily, Sun Yat-sen expounded the revolutionary program of the League as the three principles of "nationality, civil rights and people's livelihood". This became the guiding ideology of Sun Yat-sen's leadership of the Revolution of 1911.
The League is the first national unified bourgeois revolutionary party, which greatly promoted the development of the national bourgeois democratic revolutionary movement. 19 1 1 The Revolution of 1911 overthrew the rule of the Qing Dynasty and ended the feudal monarchy in China for more than 2,000 years. The anti-imperialist and anti-feudal democratic revolution of 1911 made democracy and ideas increasingly popular in the ancient land where imperial power was supreme for more than two thousand years.
Extraordinary things must have extraordinary people. 19 18 years, heroes came forth in large numbers, and many people with lofty ideals fought for the prosperity of the country and the nation, among whom Mr. Tao Yi Shi, a Pakistani, was the best.
Although Tao is one of the philosophers of 1911, due to various reasons, there are few classics, and the author is even more ignorant. Only in the voluminous and complicated books and records, I occasionally see sporadic records about Tao Gong.
It is said that Mr Tao is also a generation of celebrities. How can he leave this one-square-inch grave in this contemporary cemetery? Is there anyone with the same name? With all kinds of questions, I went to consult a literature and history expert I knew in the past. After some tracing, she not only confirmed the identity of the tomb owner, but also learned more about the touching deeds of Mr. Lu Shi, the doyen of Xinhai.
Lv Tao, whose name is Lu, whose name is Tian Yan, should not be a layman in Ni Tian Pavilion.
Mr. Wang was born in 1886 (the 12th year of Guangxu). Originally from Jiangbei, Sichuan, he is a world-class farmer. After studying in a private school as a child, I herded cattle and cultivated nanmu in Dongshan. He is a doll of a poor rural family. Later, there was a rich uncle in this clan, so he chose his children widely. Lu is wise, intelligent, intelligent and filial. Fortunately, he was recognized by his family. 1989, when he was thirteen years old, he adopted his uncle according to the ceremony and changed his nationality to Ba County, from then on, he became the patriarchal heir of a huge fortune.
A little longer, when Uncle Ran Cishu saw that Lu Shi was determined to learn Taoism and never slacked off every day, he bought a lot of books and carefully supervised teaching, and finally made Lu Shi a learned man.
Both Ran Ci and Xiang Chu are Zhao Xi's high feet. Speaking of this Mr. Zhao, it is even more unusual-
Zhao Xi (1867 ~ 1948) was born in Rong county, Sichuan province. He is one of the five old men and seven wise men in Shu, and is called "the first poet in the late Qing Dynasty" among the traditional scholars in modern Sichuan and Chongqing. In the 18th year of Guangxu (at the age of 25), palace examination was a scholar in high school and ranked second, so he chose Jishi Shu in imperial academy. The following year, he won the first place in the Baohe Hall exam and was awarded the editor of the National History Museum of the Hanlin Academy.
In Zhao Lao's life, there were many students, including Wu, Huang, Xie Tiao, Cao Du, Song Cheng and so on. Later, they became the backbone of Xinhai, pioneers of the Party, celebrities in academic circles, or tycoons in industry and commerce. At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, Zhao Xilai made great contributions to the cultural and social construction inside and outside Sichuan.
Under the recommendation of Ranci, Tao also entered the Zhao family. Soon, through the matchmaking of Ran Ci, Lu was able to marry Xiang Chu's sister. Later, Mr. Tao's daughter married Huang's son, and Xiang, Tao and the three became in-laws, which became a much-told story and a much-told story in the hutong.
Mr. Tao and Mr. Yang Shukan are close friends. At the beginning of 1906, Mr. Tao Youcang Bai introduced and secretly joined the Sichuan branch of League A.
19 1 1 year, the movement of "protecting the road" in Sichuan was surging, and Mr. Lu "ran away and forgot to eat". He and Mr. Yang Cangbai made various preparations for the armed uprising.
Mr. Tao is warm and generous, light wealth and heavy righteousness, and keeps his word.
Mr. Tao is a poor boy. He has deep feelings for the shepherd boy, the farmer and the people. After joining the league, he made friends with the lower classes. Inspired by Mr. Lu, the revolution received a positive response from the people at the bottom. For example, Paoge's uncle Kuang Chunfa took the lead in purchasing ordnance, recruiting volunteers, and personally served as the captain who dared to die, which made a great contribution to the great victory of Chongqing Chaotianguan.
At the beginning of the establishment of the Sichuan Branch of the League, the Guangzhou Uprising (Huanghuagang Uprising) was just around the corner, and the source of funds was very difficult. When Mr. Lu was in trouble, he sold a large number of properties in places such as Wanglongmen and Sanpaifang, which his ancestors left in the lower part of Chongqing, and many land lease contracts in rural areas, all of which generously helped the revolution. A bunch of colleagues heard that Mr. Lu had solved the urgent needs of the revolution and praised him. Mr. Cang Bai is also in heaven, so he gratefully said to Mr. Lu Shi:
"... it's too hard for you! Such a big car will be returned in full after the success of the revolution. "
"Ha ha! What you said is really strange. It is our great achievement to overthrow autocracy and advocate harmony. This is naturally the responsibility of every man. What's the matter outside? Why bother? ..... I promise to donate, hoping to return the benefits? "
The heroic behavior of Mr. Lu Shi Lingyun not only laid a rich material foundation for the uprising, but also greatly inspired the morale of the revolutionaries.
This year, after the Wuchang Uprising, the Shu military government was established in Chongqing, with Mr. Lu as the secretary. At that time, the military government of Shu decided to reward Mr. Liu as the director of Chongqing Copper Bureau. However, Mr. Lu always refused and only accepted the post of editor-in-chief of the official publication "The Emperor and Memorabilia of the Han Dynasty". 19 12, Sun Yat-sen was appointed as interim president in Nanjing, and was commended for his unpaid contribution to the revolution.
After Xinhai, the clouds are still hazy. Every time Mr. Lu reunites with his old friends, thinking of the revolutionary festivals of that year, he often laments that the husband is in power and the tyranny still exists, and he has to sigh. During the dinner, he often hears sarcastic words.
"The revolution failed", Mr. Lu hated the corruption in official administration, despised the secular society, and resolutely abandoned the seal and lost his official position. After Mr. Lu returned to his hometown, he recruited students and devoted himself to teaching. 1935, he was appointed as the deputy editor-in-chief to assist Xiang Chu in completing this local chronicle with great academic value.
1940 65438+ in October, Mr. Lu died of crane, only 54 years old, a generation of sages, whose ambition was hard to express, and died with his eyes closed-
Later, in his mourning poems, Mr. Yang Shukan praised Mr. Lu Shi for his "generous donation and generosity". Mr. Pale also presented an elegiac couplet, inscribed "I endured death and waited for my return", and inscribed "Mourning for the lay man", praising Mr. Lu as the "March Eighth Banner Division"; In his eulogy, Zhao Xi also praised Mr. Lu Ji as an "ordinary man" who "respected the trust of the people of China". Compared with Mr. Wu Liu, he was honored as a "Gao Shi". At the funeral, the old colleagues all touched the coffin and stamped their feet, and the long towel was wet with tears. The feelings of sadness and regret were beyond words.
After the founding of New China, Lu's relatives donated dozens of boxes of Mr. Wang's suicide notes to Chongqing Library, many of which were rare and precious. Liu Bocheng, then chairman of the Southwest Military and Political Committee, did not abandon his old friends. He asked about Mr. Wang many times and told the local government to do its best to support relatives and future generations. However, people forget things, and many related historical relics have been lost in previous "movements" and "Cultural Revolution". Tao's descendants were not only sheltered by their ancestors, but also wrote many derogatory words on family history files, which brought a lot of bad luck. Lu's old tomb was originally built in Lengshuitian, Baxian County (now Huayan area, Jiulongpo District, Chongqing), but it was later opened, leaving no stone tablet and few traces in the grass. After the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee, the roots were cleared, and the development of Huayan area was just around the corner. The descendants of the Taoists and Huang family (Huang's grandson) could not bear to lose the bones of their ancestors in the wilderness. So, they bought this cemetery of less than half a square meter in the nearby Kowloon Cemetery, and finally gave their ancestors a place to rest.
After listening to the expert's account, I searched everywhere in the next few days and read some relevant records about Mr. Tao Shilu. The style and sentiment of the predecessors and sages are even more awe-inspiring, such as feather fan, elegant, knowledgeable, generous and generous. Seeing that the "Central Plains" is approaching, and that "the people's morality will return to the thick", we once again came to the Kowloon Cemetery with infinite reverence for the benevolent people of Xinhai to pay homage to the tombstone of the old gentleman Lv Tao.
Jiulong Cemetery is a well-known large-scale social cemetery in Chongqing, where a large-scale humanistic and artistic landscape has been built, which shows the core concept of traditional culture of "putting all virtues and filial piety first". The cemetery is located in Tianba Youth Mountain, Zhongliang Mountain, Jiulongpo District, adjacent to Huayan Scenic Area and Zhongliang Mountain Forest Park. The cemetery is surrounded by mountains and full of green, with a beautiful natural environment, just like a paradise; The terrain of the cemetery looks like a soaring dragon, and the auspicious phase is natural; The garden is sunny, auspicious and has a unique peaceful and prosperous feng shui pattern. For people on the street, this is really an ideal pure land and a paradise for rest. However, seeing that Tao Gong's tablet and tomb are mixed in the grave, mediocre and unremarkable, and there are no words on the tablet to describe the achievements of the sages, I can't help but feel some grievances about Tao Gong's situation after his death.
Great achievements of Xinhai, contributing to China; The spirit of 1911 should be carried forward; Prosperity is changing with each passing day.
When the horn of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation resounds through the sky, with the virtue of Tao Gong, you can learn from the spring water, be happy when you are born, be generous when you are born, and be indifferent when you go.
Standing in front of the monument, I silently recited the poem in Tao Gong's masterpiece "Emei Mountain Yun Ge":
……
Yunshan is a mountain costume, and immortals take clouds as their hometown.
Birds can't fly to the clouds and live in them. Who knows the mountain clouds are really fragrant?
I came to see the clouds, not the snow. I have seen the growth and disappearance of clouds.
In a flash, the ups and downs are clear at a glance.
You didn't see yesterday's teenager Yan Rudan,
Spring has come and gone.
White hair deceives others, jumping in the sky every day.
In the dust, you need to jump out of the dust to think, and it is hard to be frustrated when you are proud. ...
-To commemorate the sages, I would like to take this article as a sacrifice.
Tao Gong rested in peace, but he was still satisfied!
