The origin of Wang ancestral hall

Wang's ancestral hall was built in the sixth year of Jiayou in the Northern Song Dynasty (106 1). It was burned by soldiers in the Yuan Dynasty and rebuilt in the 12th year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (14 14). Two-year maintenance in Qing dynasty (1724). Qianlong, Jiaqing and Guangxu years were expanded many times. Wang Wanzhuang, the ancestor, was a scholar in the Song Dynasty and a prefect of Baoqing Shaoyang. In his later years, he traveled to Changping with his family. This place is surrounded by mountains and water. At that time, there was a large pond about 100 mu wide in front of the temple, and the hill in the pond was like an official seal. Those who are good at digging dig longer and longer. A geomantic gentleman was afraid of destroying this geomantic treasure house, so he killed a dog and drenched the dog's blood on Yinshan Mountain, which never grew again. Wanzhuang bought a field to settle down, and built a small ancestral hall by the pond, named Chongben Hall. Later, the ancestral temple was burned down, and Wang Dali, the 14th generation of Wanzhuanggong, wrote a letter in the History of Hengzhou Magistrate, in which he agreed to build the ancestral temple. At this time, a minister of the Ministry of Industry, Wang Zhao, appeared in the Wang family. He presided over the construction of the temple, which was completed 20 years later. I personally changed "Chun 'an first" to "Hengyang first" in history. Since then, "Hengyang No.1" has become famous.
