Where is Dong Qichang Cemetery? Some people say that in Wuxi? Please answer if you know, be specific, thank you.

Dong Qichang (1555-1636), whose real name is Xuanzai, is a layman with a sweet light and white name. He is the minister of rites, the assistant. Dongjiazhai, Shagang, Songjiang Prefecture, Shanghai County (now Dongjiazhai, friendship village, maqiao town, Minhang District). One of the most famous painters and connoisseurs in Ming Dynasty, the leader of Songjiang School of Painting and Songjiang School of Calligraphy, and the master of China's book circle, he is known as "the rice of the northeast, the south and the north". His literati painting, calligraphy and the theory of southern and northern sects have far-reaching influence. Experts and scholars from more than 20 countries and regions have studied Dong Qichang. But Dong's tomb attracted people's attention because of its mobility and authenticity, so I decided to find out.

First, I visited Dong Zhaochang, the 17th grandson of Dong Qichang. As soon as he mentioned Dong Qichang's tomb, he talked about Dong Shi's original genealogy of the Dong Shi family. According to genealogy records, Bingzi and Dong Qichang were buried with their wife Gong in the north of Yutang in Songjiang in the ninth year of Chongzhen in Ming Dynasty (1636). The following year, Yangshan ancestors were given a burial place in Suzhou. In 1980s, when I was editing the "Tomb" part of Dong Qichang's historical materials, I consulted relevant books and found that all the books recorded this tomb. The Records of Songjiang Prefecture published by Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty recorded: "The tomb of Dong Qichang, the minister of rites of Prince Taifu, was buried in Yangshan, Suzhou in the tenth year of Chongzhen (1637) and is now buried in the cemetery." "Suzhou Fuzhi" contains: "After the death of Dong Qichang, the tomb was in Yuyang Mountain, Suzhou, and the Confucian Temple was sealed." Tan Qian's "Guo Que" Volume 96: "In the tenth year of Chongzhen (1636), in June, Dong Qichang, the late minister of rites, was buried and presented to the Prince Taifu." The second volume of Dong Qichang Green Post, Yunan Zhiyin, recalls that I didn't go to Chunhu to protect the tomb, visit Xiangshan Mountain and visit Wenmin Tomb in Yuyang Mountain Bay. Special issue of stone table. "There is no mention of moving the tomb in the book, but Dong's tomb is recorded correctly in Yuyangshan, Suzhou.

1989 September19, the first Dong Qichang International Symposium was held. At the meeting, famous Japanese and American scholars Hiroshi Kurihara, famous Japanese connoisseur and master of Chinese painting Cheng Shifa all hoped that I could visit Dong's Tomb in Yuyang Mountain in Suzhou. After the meeting, at the beginning of 10, I visited Dong's tomb in Suzhou. Find Yuyang Mountain in Xukou Town, Taihu Lake, and enter the mountain under the guidance of local tour guides. I happened to meet Qian Asan, the protector of Dong Qichang's tomb. Uncle Qian, who is over seventy and in good health, promised to take me to see the true and false tombs of Dong Qichang. Along the winding mountain road, I arrived at Yangjiashan first, only to see flowers in full bloom, mulberry trees crawling over the hillside, lush vegetation, and Dong's tomb hidden in green. Two or three hundred meters to the north is Taihu Lake, backed by a ridge and surrounded by mountains on three sides. The whole cemetery is surrounded by lakes and mountains. The scenery is beautiful and it is a treasure trove of geomantic omen. Its scenery is really as Dong Qichang wrote, "Painting is not as good as landscape because of the strangeness of the path, and painting is not as good as landscape because of the exquisiteness of pen and ink." Dong's tomb among mulberry trees faces south. There are two stone tablets in the cemetery, one is low and the other is high. The previous rectangular stone tablet reads: Dong Qichang's Tomb.

Wuxian Cultural Relics Protection Unit 1986 announced the establishment of Wuxian People's Government on March 25th. The latter's long stone tablet is engraved with the following words: the cemetery is in Dong, and the Wuzhong protection tomb was not established in Ming Dynasty.

After learning Wu Yinpei's calligraphy. I lowered my hands. The other cemetery is separated by 1000 meters. On the hillside of Yuyang Bay, when you walk to the grass beside the road one or two hundred meters away from the tomb, you will see stone statues, Weng Zhong, stone tablets, stone pillars and Shi Hu. Weng Zhong is 3 or 4 meters high and weighs several tons, which shows the scale of the original cemetery. The tomb was found in a tall bamboo forest, and the top surface of the stone hall about one meter below the surface has been uncovered. According to Qian Asan, when the villagers dug up the grave, they found it was empty. He also said: "This is the memorial tomb of Dong Qichang, and it is also the tomb of suspected burglars." On the way back, I also described the excavation of Dong Qichang's real tomb in Yangjiashan Meijiayuan 1966. In 2005, the 450th anniversary of Dong Qichang's birth, June 5438 +65438 10+May 5, I visited the grave for the second time with Gu Fugen, a cultural worker in Maqiao, Minhang District, Dong Qichang's hometown, and interviewed Dong Genfu, the keeper of Dong's tomb. What I said is basically the same as what Qian Asan said.

1966 dong's tomb was excavated in June and July. At that time, members of the 14th production team of Suzhou Wuxian Shuli Brigade found this tomb among rocks and weeds when leveling the mountain in Yangjiashan (Meijiayuan). Ask for the help of the members of the thirteenth team. Open a tomb soil layer, below which is a large slate with sticky rice and lime. After the stone cover plate is opened, there are two coffins juxtaposed inside, all of which are sets of coffins, the outer coffin is made of Chinese fir and the inner coffin is made of nanmu. The two inner coffins contained the bodies of a man and a woman, both of which were wrapped in white cloth and did not completely rot. The female corpse has hair, hair, golden hair and other things. In the nanmu coffin of the man's body, there is a brick with an epitaph in front of his head. The brick is engraved with the words "Dong Qichang, Huating, Songjiang Prefecture, and his wife Gong gave (moved) to bury Yangshan Meijiayuan". Because it was during the Cultural Revolution, Hua of 14 team smashed the brick carving with iron and buried the brick and the body in the original coffin. Accordingly, it is confirmed that the owner of the tomb is Dong Qichang. Witnesses have different opinions about whether the book carved on the brick is "removed for burial" or "given for burial". After Cui Fa, Chai Jin and other ornaments were sold by the village cadres at that time, they bought cigarettes and distributed them to the members of Shuli Brigade 13 and 14 who participated in the grave robbery.

Later, I contacted the Suzhou Wuxian Local Records Office and learned that in the 1980s, the relevant departments of Wuxian conducted an in-depth investigation on Dong Qichang's tomb and confirmed that Yangjiashan (Meijiayuan) tomb was the original of Dong's tomb. With the approval of Wuxian People's Government, the tomb was listed as a cultural relic protection unit in Wuxian County and was protected by Hitachi Monument on March 25th. 1986. For various reasons, Dong's tomb was restored very simply. With the deepening of Dong Qichang research and the development of tourism in Taihu Lake, Dong Qichang's tomb near Taihu Lake will be further repaired.

A few years ago, Mr. Huang Hongyu and I went to Dong Qichang's tomb in Yuyang Mountain. Now I don't remember the way I came and went.

1On the afternoon of October 30th, after visiting Yuyang Mountain, Yu and Zhong Huajun went to the northwest of Yuyang Mountain to pay tribute to Dong's tomb. According to Gu Jun's record at the top of Yuyang Mountain, "Dong Qichang's tomb is located on the private plot of Wu in Li Yuyang, a mountain dock in the northwest of Yuyang Mountain". Drive and Zhong Hua along the Taihu levee in the south ring of Yuyang Mountain to the west, first to a pier and ask an old woman riding a tricycle, "Is Dong Qichang's tomb far from here?" He said, "Continue north to the next hill pier."

At the next hill pier, stop on the right side of the road. On the left side of the road, under the road, there is a film studio where two or three farmers are working in the fields. To the west of Hirata is Taihu Lake. Near evening, there was a glow between Guangfu Mountain and the water of Taihu Lake, which made Zhong Huajun exclaim. There is a path to the south of the parking lot, where there are three or four photographers. Zhong Hua went down the mountain and asked a farmer's wife in Hirata, "Where is Dong's tomb?" He suddenly said, "I can be a guide!" " "

So, the peasant woman climbed from Pingtian to the highway, pushed her bicycle ahead, and walked through the parking place to the path. There is a small pool in the east, across the bridge of the pool. The peasant woman leaned her bike against a bayberry tree and turned north to a forest. Dong's tomb is in the Woods.

Dong Qichang's tomb is made of earth and stone, with a diameter of about two or three meters and a height of less than one meter. There are weeds and no fences here. On the west side, there is a stone tablet that reads "Mingdong Wenmin Cemetery" in regular script and red paint. On the right side of the red-painted regular script, there is the small print "Wu Yinpei's tomb will stand in winter", and on the left side there is the small print "Wu Yinpei studied after school", and the small print is not painted. On the west side of this monument,1March 25th, 986, Wuxian People's Government announced that Dong Qichang's Tomb was a stone carving of Wuxian Cultural Relics Protection Unit. On the back, it says, "The tomb is in Li Yuyang, Xukou Township. There are two places, one is in Yangjiachang, the cemetery has been destroyed, and the cemetery is already a mulberry garden. The original tablet of "East Cemetery" inscribed by Wu Yinpei is still there. In addition, in Yuyangshan Wharf, the regulations are relatively large, and there are stone components such as turtles, lions, horses, Weng Zhong and monuments. Dong Qichang (1555- 1636), the word Xuanzhai,No. Sibai, a native of Huating, Songjiang, was a Wanli Jinshi, an official, a history of rites, good at calligraphy and painting, and well versed in the south, northeast and north, so the visit to Dong's tomb refers to the latter. This tomb was once identified as Dong Zhizhen's tomb by Mr. Li Genyuan, and the former was his cenotaph.

The peasant woman said, "I will spend the rest of my life fishing in the ocean and marry in it. Dong Qichang's tomb was originally tens of meters east of this tomb. It was excavated decades ago and the stone tablet was broken. Yu and all the villagers moved the remains in the grave to the present position. "

Yu Yue: Dong Qichang claimed to be the "Elephant Light Buddha", or swam in the Xiangshan Mountain on the shore of Taihu Lake before the recovery, and was named after his joy. Before he died, he was ordered to be buried in Yuyang Mountain Pier, just between Xukou Xiangshan and Guangfu! Be happy when you are born, and be buried when you die. Is the name "Xiangguang layman" incorrect? Zhong Huajun just laughed.
