Zhang Kai Wang Sheng Chen Yuanguang

Zheng Chen (6 16 ~ 677) was born in Gushi, Gwangju, Henan. When Emperor Taizong and Emperor Gaozong were in power, he made great achievements. In the second year of Tang Gaozong's general chapter (669), in order to quell the resistance of the indigenous people in Quanzhou and Chaozhou dialect, Zheng Chen was appointed as the general manager of Lingnan March, led the troops to defend Sui 'an (now Xiao Yun), and implemented the policy of "Jingbian". Due to the stubborn resistance of the aborigines, they surrendered to Jiulong Mountain (now the upper reaches of Jiulong River). In the second year (677), Tang Yifeng died. The tomb is located in Jiangjun Mountain in the west of Yunxiao County. Zheng Chen, the general of Tang Guide, and his wife were buried together, facing east from west. There is a brick turtle mound outside the cemetery, which is about 1.8 meters high, 7 meters long and 5 meters wide. There is a brick retaining wall behind it, including a tomb embankment, steps, stone Weng Zhong, stone beasts, stone huabiao, etc. Reconstruction in the Southern Song Dynasty was destroyed in the early Qing Dynasty. 1984 excavated and cleaned the pedestal and remaining stone pillars of the Song Dynasty in front of the tomb, and the inscription was "Four Years of Jiaxi (124)". 1985 was restored according to the burial system of the Song Dynasty.

Chen Yuanguang (657 ~ 7 1 1), whose name is Tingju, was born in Gushi, Gwangju, Henan Province, the son of Chen Zheng. In the second year of Tang Yifeng (677), Chen Yuanguang was ordered to attack his father's post with General Angelababy, and carried out the policy of wasteland reclamation to win over the indigenous people and stabilize the place. In the second year of Tang Dynasty (686), he was the first secretariat of Zhangzhou, with strict official management and outstanding achievements, which played an important role in the political, economic and cultural development of Zhangzhou. Tang Jingyun died in battle in the second year (7 1 1). The tomb is located in Shigushan, Punan Town, xiangcheng district, Zhangzhou City. Tang Zhenyuan was originally buried in Xiaoyun Dazhiyuan (now Zhangpu County). In the second year (786), he moved to Zhouzhi and was buried in Shigu Mountain in the north of Zhangzhou. Sitting northwest to southeast, it covers an area of 1700 square meters. The tombstone is engraved with "General Zhangchen Cemetery in Tang Kai", the pedestal is engraved with plum blossoms, and there are five cemeteries in front of the grave, with a drop of1-1.2m. There are a pair of Shi Hu, Shiyang and Shiwangzhu on each side. On the nearby stone, the Record of Tomb Revision written by assistant minister Cai Shiyuan in the 57th year of Kangxi (17 18) is engraved. 1986, Zhangzhou people's government rebuilt this tomb to commemorate the 300th anniversary of General Chen Yuanguang's opening of Zhangzhou/kloc-0, and planted green environments such as Qilixiang, Wutong and cypress. Chen Yuanguang (657 ~ 7 1 1), Ziting Ju,No. Longhu, was born in Gwangju, Henan. Born in the second year in Xianqing, Tang Gaozong, he entered Fujian with his father Zheng Chen at the age of fourteen. In forty-two years in Fujian, he devoted his life to the development of Zhangzhou, and he is worthy of being the first person in Zhangzhou.

Carry out the national integration policy of "abandoning the country for morality and making Hu and Yue more harmonious"

Chen Yuanguang read widely since childhood and was deeply influenced by Wang Dao's thought of loyalty to the monarch and benevolent government. His father, Zheng Chen, died of exhaustion after eight years of imperial edict in the rebellion in southern Fujian, and took over his father's post of guarding Tang Jun in Fujian. He felt that the disadvantages brought by his father's rebellion policy were: "The culprit was punished, the remaining murderers were resurrected, and the law followed the traitor, which made the less work" ... So he did the opposite, adopted the strategy of appeasing the rebellious "savage" villagers, distinguished the first evil from coercion, and focused on cracking down on the first evil. And implement the policy of "land to the tiller", build "Tanghuali" in the south of xipu, north of Jiulong River, and build "Huotian Village" in the north of Zhangjiang, Xiao Yun, reclaim land for production, build village houses, and resettle military families, so as to achieve food self-sufficiency and soldiers will not disturb the people. He also won the submission of most "barbarians" through various channels, and made great efforts to appease the refugees, so the indigenous people "looked at the Jiulong River and looked at the thunder" (Bai Gupu). For these "barbarians", Chen Yuanguang "doted on them" and exempted them from tax corvee. The implementation of this policy has won the hearts of the people, eased ethnic contradictions, and made the desolate Jiulong River "gradually become a village and expand thousands of miles".

In order to further urge local villagers to change their bad habits, integrate into the mainstream society, and publicize "Moon Lake is full of schools, and there is no gap". Chen Yuanguang advocates ethnic intermarriage and encourages the Ministry to marry local women. The implementation of these policies has greatly promoted the integration of Han and She ethnic groups, and promoted the feudal process of She ethnic groups still in the tribal period.

In the Central Plains, the backward mode of production was replaced by advanced production technology.

At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the mountain people living between the "spring tides" were still at the end of the clan society, and the mode of production was very backward. They "cut down mountains and camp, and hunt by mountains", and "she breeds in fire fields without plowing calves" (Chen Yuanguang's Collection of Dragons and Tigers). In view of this situation, Chen Yuanguang actively promoted iron farm tools, Niu Geng and Qu Yuan plows, vigorously advocated intensive cultivation, built water conservancy projects, irrigated farmland with tractors, and implemented double-cropping rice production mode.

It is precisely because of the application of these advanced production technologies and measures that agricultural production in Zhangzhou has been initially developed, the productivity level has been improved for the first time, and the slash-and-burn production mode that has been implemented for thousands of years has come to an end.

Start a school, turn ignorance into ethics.

As a generation of Confucian generals, Chen Yuanguang knew the truth that "soldiers are arrogant, courtesy is the heart" and "he is building a county and wants to build a national order". So just after the war, he went to the court and wrote a letter of "Please build a county table", which was approved by the court. In two years, Zhangzhou was formally established, and various systems and decrees of the Tang Dynasty and the culture of the Central Plains were promoted and spread here. "Turning vulgarity into the crown" makes "the wilderness full of royal grace". He set up the post of "Wen" among county officials, presided over the affairs of township schools, and founded Songzhou Academy in Tanghuali, Punan, which was the earliest school named after the Academy in China and was included in the newly published China Education Annals. Chen Yuanguang asked his son, Chen Wangxiang, to give lectures in the academy, and gathered 40 students, which became the source of school education in Zhangzhou. The establishment of this school not only achieved the goal of "ugly folk customs and mellow rural customs" (Chen Yuanguang's Longhu Collection), but also made Zhangzhou enter the track of feudal imperial examination system.

Trade and welfare workers and economic development.

After Zhangzhou was founded, Chen Yuanguang attached great importance to economic development. He advised farmers to associate with businessmen for the benefit of workers, and educated his son and his subordinates to "learn from books every day and persuade farmers with stars" (Chen Yuanguang's Dragon and Tiger Collection). Encouraged by his policy, the government and the people reclaimed land, planted rice, tea and sericulture, developed diversified businesses and set off a craze. Everywhere, "many axes drive tigers and leopards, and many measures are taken to intercept the harbor and catch shrimps" (Chen Yuanguang's Dragon and Tiger Collection). On the land of Zhangzhou, there is a gratifying scene: "The fire is fragrant with yellow rice, and the goldfish in the water is drunk" (Chen Yuanguang's Longhu Collection), and "the countryside is prosperous and handsome everywhere" (Chen Yuanguang's Longhu Collection). In addition, the handicraft technologies of the Central Plains, such as salt drying, shipbuilding, porcelain making, pottery making, iron smelting, weaving and dyeing, and agricultural machinery and tools manufacturing, have also been spread here. "Ships Near Salt" (Chen Yuanguang's Longhu Collection) not only shows the progress of shipbuilding technology at that time, but also reflects the development of salt industry and the initial prosperity of maritime trade.

Inheriting Central Plains culture and art has far-reaching influence.

Chen Yuanguang is a Confucian general with both civil and military skills. He is not only good at martial arts, but also likes poetry and is good at reciting. After the establishment of Zhangzhou city, many efforts have been made to inherit the culture and art of the Central Plains, which have far-reaching influence, including the singing of poems and songs, the formation of Minnan language family, drama art, tea drinking culture, folk customs, religion and sacrificial culture. , these can find traces of the original relationship with the Central Plains. Among them, Chen Yuanguang's Longhu Collection is the earliest and most complete ancient document in Fujian. This episode contains 50 poems by Chen Yuanguang, 7 of which have been included in The Whole Tang Poetry and The Whole Tang Poetry published by Zhonghua Book Company, and 43 are Precious Lost Poems in the Tang Dynasty.

Pioneer of Zhangzhou Civilization in Fujian Province

1300 years ago, Chen Yuanguang, a native of Gushi, Henan Province, followed his father, General Tang Guide Zheng Chen, and led nearly 10,000 government soldiers from Gushi to enter Fujian, stationing troops in the sky, thus creating the stability and prosperity of Zhangzhou, which was called "Wang Sheng of Zhang Kai" by the later Buddha. Chen Yuanguang's pioneering work not only safeguarded national unity and promoted national integration, but also played a very important role in promoting the spread of Central Plains culture in Fujian, Guangdong, Taiwan and Southeast Asian countries.

Today, there are more than 300 sub-temples in Taiwan Province Province alone, and the ancestral hall of Weihui in Xiao Yun is dedicated to the "Holy King of Zhang Kai". Every year, believers from all over the world come to Xiao Yun to ask about their ancestors and pay tribute to the sages.

Why didn't Chen Yuanguang's Biography of Tang Shi be restored?

It is an indisputable fact that Chen Yuanguang, the first general of Zhangzhou in Tang Dynasty, known as "King Zhang Kai", was the founder of Zhangzhou. However, neither the Book of the New Tang Dynasty nor the Book of the Old Tang Dynasty was published, which made the later generations feel confused and sorry. In fact, throughout the long history, Chen Yuanguang is not the only historical celebrity without official history, and his position is higher than that of Chen Yuanguang. There are also many records in unofficial history, local chronicles and Jiacheng, but there are also many anonymous people in the official history. The reason why there is no Tang Shi in Chen Yuanguang is mainly because Zhangzhou at that time was just a newly established county in the southeast of the vast territory of the Tang Dynasty. It was called a secluded seaside and had no "popularity", so it was difficult to store archives in Chang 'an, the capital city thousands of miles away. What's more, Chen Yuanguang's ancestors were originally the "former generals" of the Sui Dynasty attached to the Tang Dynasty, and it is inevitable that some people regard them with special respect; Moreover, the post of "Shangshu" in the Tang Dynasty is only ranked in the fourth category, and it is definitely not "the body of dignitaries". In view of the above factors, later generations of historians may not be able to understand the origin of "Zhang Kai", which led to Chen Yuanguang's "biographies of Tang Shi without revision". However, anyone with historical knowledge should not think that Tang Shi is unknown and doubt whether there is Chen Yuanguang and his great achievements.

Although he recorded the deeds of the famous opening sage and his subordinates, he clearly recorded the story of Zhangpu juxtaposing with the state in the archway in December of the second year (see Old Tang Book. Geography); Another example is New Tang Book. Geography, which also records: "There is water in the south of Zhangzhou (in the clouds), hence the name" (I press: the book of the New Tang Dynasty was published in the Song Dynasty, when Zhangzhou Prefecture had moved northward to xiangcheng district for more than 400 years, so the book was called "Zhangzhou South").

A scholar in the Northern Song Dynasty and Zhang Ji wrote a monograph "Preface to Maps" in the fifth year of Yufeng (182), which clearly recorded: "On December 9, the second year of Tang Gaozong's hanging arch, the government left Yu and Zuo Lang, and they were pacified, which made the state difficult. Cut the southwest of Fuzhou (renamed Sui and Fujian as Fuzhou in the mid-Tang Dynasty) and set it in Zhangzhou. At the beginning of Emperor Zhi, Zhang Shuibei set up a chariot, and the state is famous for its water ... "When Wu Yu wrote" Illustration Preface ",it was only 300 years since Chen Yuanguang died in the line of duty, and the time was very close. Of course, the historical events and figures he used are not absurd, so there should be no doubt. At the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, the official documents compiled by historians of the central government were classified and sorted. Among them is Li Lei. 20. The Chen Yuanguang Ci Ji, which used nearly 300 words, recorded in detail that since the eighth year of Zong Xining (113 years), it was posthumously named as "Zhong Hou" in the Song Dynasty. Since then, many Song emperors have treated Chen Yuanguang and his father successively. The events described in this article ended in September of the 4th year of Xiaozong Road in the Southern Song Dynasty (1 168), and Chen Yuanguang was named "the king of enlightenment". At the same time, it also recorded the glorious image and sublimation process of Chen Yuanguang as a celebrity, a citizen of Huize, and enjoying the temple fair sacrifice. The information is precious. The official book "Song Yaoji Draft" was written during the 450 years when Chen Yuanguang lived, especially the official book archives, which contained authoritative things. Of course, it can be regarded as a reliable history.

Since then, during the Yuan Dynasty, Chinese culture was severely damaged, and many documents were lost, especially local documents, most of which were incomplete. As a result, later generations often encounter document faults when studying local chronicles, and have to turn to unofficial history, genealogists and word of mouth.

It was not until the middle of the next quarter that the society was basically stable that local officials resumed the "Shi Sheng Restoration" activity. So in the seventh year of Zheng De (15 12), the Records of Zhangzhou of Daming, which was compiled by Jinshi, Bu Zhi of Sichuan and Zhou Ying of Putian, and edited by Jinshi, Zhangzhou Magistrate and Wuling Chen Hongmo, was published. Unfortunately, it is rarely printed and handed down from generation to generation. Today, when I looked up the general catalogue of the ancient books department of the National Library of Beijing, I only recorded that the Ming Zhengde edition of Daming Zhangzhou Chronicle has become an orphan at home and is now in the National Palace Museum in Taipei. The author has twice tried to go to Taiwan with the delegation to participate in folk cultural exchange activities, so he saw and browsed this "orphan" Zhangzhou local chronicles, and also entrusted many chapters in this local chronicles, such as the 14th volume of the Biography of Zhangzhou Local Chronicles of Daming, Rites and Discipline, Chen Yuanguang, etc., to take photos and copy them back to the original place for research.

This biography gives a general description and evaluation of Chen Yuanguang and his deeds, and it is the earliest official document recording Chen Yuanguang's life so far. After reading the preface of the local chronicles, we know that many materials in the book are collected from Old Records and Song Records. However, it can be inferred that Zhangzhou government records were edited during the Tang and Song Dynasties. Today, Mo Dao's "Ancient Records" has been lost. Even when state officials compiled local records in the early Ming Dynasty, they could only get some surviving "Old Records" and "Song Records". Therefore, the biography of Chen Yuanguang recorded in Zheng De's Annals of Daming Zhangzhou probably comes directly from the Book of Tang Dynasty and the Book of Song Dynasty, and is by no means invented by later generations. From the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty to the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty and even after, local governments at all levels in Fujian have compiled various versions of local chronicles, such as Shu Min, Bamin Tongzhi, Fujian Tongzhi and Zhangzhou Fuzhi. Although the history of Zhang Kai, especially the behavior of Chen Yuanguang, is different from that recorded in Zheng Dezhi, these local chronicles are all affirmed and affirmed in the same way.

When searching for Chen Yuanguang's hometown Gwangju (Liangzhi Gwangju, Dingling City, Guangshan, Xianju, Gushi and Yin Cheng) in Gushi County, only the tombs and ancestral temples of Chen Yuanguang's ancestors were left in Jeffery Ji Township of this county (according to Zheng De's version of Zhangzhou Records of Daming, Chen Yuanguang's ancestors were originally from "Hedong"). The earliest existing record in Henan literature is "Records of Guangzhou". Biography of loyalty and heroism. Chen Yuanguang written by Qing Qianlong. It was first recorded that "Chen Yuanguang was born in Yiyang (Guangzhou was renamed Yiyang in Sui Dynasty) and was born on February 16th (657) in the second year of Xian Qing".

In addition, there are materials such as Chaozhou Fu Zhi or Chen Family Tree compiled by Guangdong Province in the Qing Dynasty and modern times, which also record historical events, and their praise for their achievements is basically the same as that of Fujian Province. Only Chen Yuanguang's hometown is called Guangdong. According to the relevant information, Zheng Chen, another person with the same surname in Panyu County, was mistaken for Chen Yuanguang's father, so he had a Guangdong nationality mistake. In fact, there is no reliable data to support this statement.

To sum up, we can be absolutely sure that Chen Yuanguang did exist in history, and he was honored as the "Holy King of Zhang Kai" by later generations for good reason and worthy of the name. (Fang Qunda Wen)

The birthplace of Zhang Kai culture.

In the long history of the development of Chinese civilization, the Central Plains moved south and entered Fujian for enlightenment, which played a vital role in the development of Fujian. Most of the immigrants who went south to Fujian and Vietnam came from Henan. Among them, the events of Zheng Chen and Chen Yuanguang in Gushi County in the early Tang Dynasty created the development history of Zhangzhou civilization.

In the second year of Tang Gaozong Tongzhang (669), there was a "riot" between Quanzhou and Chaozhou. Zheng Chen, the general who returned to Germany, was appointed as the general manager of Lingnan March. Together with his son Chen Yuanguang, he led more than 9,000 government soldiers to quell the chaotic situation in the border area between Qimin and Baiyue, and first opened chariots to build castles and pave fields in Yunxiao County today, ending the era of slash-and-burn cultivation in southern Fujian. Zheng Chen died of illness and was buried in General Hill, Xiao Yun. His son Chen Yuanguang came to power, and after hundreds of battles, he finally put down the "chaos" in southern Fujian. In the second year of Tang Dynasty (686), the court was asked to establish Zhangzhou Prefecture. Since then, he has educated and governed the people, promoted culture, practiced the rule of law and changed customs, thus creating Zhangzhou's inheritance for more than 1,300 years. The earliest rule of Zhangzhou lies in Xilin Village, Huotian Town, Yunxiao County. Xilin Village is located on the bank of Zhangjiang River, so the state is named "Zhangzhou" after the river. Chen Yuanguang was the first secretariat of Zhangzhou, and was honored as the "King of Zhang Kai" by later generations. In the third year of the Northern Song Dynasty (112), Song Huizong named him "Wei Hui Temple", and the ancestral temple was located in the west gate of Xiao Yun City. Because of this glorious history, Xiao Yun has become a "holy land for opening a home" in the eyes of the Zhang family at home and abroad.

After the stability of southern Fujian, most of the 87 government soldiers brought by Chen's father and son from Gushi, Henan, settled and multiplied here. These officers and men entered Fujian as soldiers and made great contributions to the development and construction of Zhangzhou. They are all proud of being "soldiers of the Tang Dynasty". In addition, the Tang Dynasty was powerful overseas, so their descendants moved to Taiwan Province Province, Southeast Asia, Europe and America, calling themselves "Tangren" for short. As a result, "Tangshan" became a pair of compatriots from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and overseas Chinese.

Chen Yuanguang and his son's great achievements in opening business have been investigated in history, but there is no record of their deeds in the new and old books of the Tang Dynasty. This is somewhat regrettable. But "there is no biography of Tang Shi, and there is a temple in Zhangjiang to worship the general". People on both sides of Zhangjiang River felt the great achievements of Chen's father and son in developing Zhangzhou, and built more than 100 "Temple of the Holy King" to worship Chen's father and son and their generals. Every year during the Lantern Festival, people will hold grand and unique sacrificial activities such as "learning from the teacher" and "walking the king". Now, as a folk custom, "patrolling the saints and protecting the king" has become the first batch of intangible cultural heritage in Fujian Province. The folk belief in the "Holy King of Zhang Kai" has been spreading with the footsteps of the descendants of Zhang Kai loyalists migrating to Taiwan Province Province and overseas. "Opening Zhangzu Temple"-Xiao Yun Weihui Temple spread incense far and wide. There are more than 300 sub-temples in Taiwan Province alone, and there are countless in Southeast Asia. Over the years, a large number of descendants of Zhang have set foot on their homeland, seeking roots to worship their ancestors, paying homage to their ancestors, homesick for thousands of years, and crying. In 2006 10, the inaugural meeting of the International Zhang Kai Cultural Friendship Association was held in Singapore. On March 29th this year, the international "Zhang Kai Wang Sheng" Cultural Festival was held grandly at the foot of Jiangjun Mountain in Xiao Yun, and the "Zhang Kai Wang Sheng" culture was shining in its birthplace, attracting worldwide attention.

Zhang Kai Temple-Weihui Temple in Xiao Yun

Xiao Yun Weihui Temple is located on the bank of Zhangjiang River outside the west gate of Xiao Yun, and belongs to Xiangtang Village, Yunling Town. The temple is a large-scale building, facing southeast from northwest. Built in the first year of Tang Sisheng (684), it was called General Chen Temple in ancient times. Song Huizong Zhenghe for three years (1 1 13) was named Wei Hui Temple. The existing building was rebuilt by Chenghua Wu Yongsui (1465 ~ 1487) in Ming Dynasty, and it was rebuilt many times in past dynasties. Zhang Kaisheng Jun Chen Yuanguang is known as Weihui ancestral temple at home and abroad. 1985 1 month was announced as the first batch of county-level cultural relics protection units in Yunxiao county. It is the only Kaizhangzu Temple listed in the Dictionary of Chinese Tourist Attractions. In May 2005, Xiao Yun Wei Hui Temple was announced by Fujian Provincial People's Government as the fifth batch of provincial key cultural relics protection units.

Chen Yuanguang is the "Holy King of Zhang Kai" revered by the descendants of Zhang Kai soldiers at home and abroad, and his ancestral home is Gushi County, Gwangju, Henan Province. As early as the second year of Tang Gaozong's General Chapter (669), Chen Yuanguang, who was only thirteen years old, followed his father Zheng Chen, the general who returned to Germany, and led the Central Plains government to invade Fujian, stabilize the border between Fujian and Guangdong, implement appeasement and development, and safeguard the multi-ethnic unity of the Tang Dynasty. After his father died of illness, Yuan Guang captured the post, expanded his army by thousands of miles, built a fortress, and made Bianhuang stable, and the mountains looked flat, making him a general. Wu Zetian hung on the arch for two years (686), and was allowed to build Zhangzhou Governance Institute on the banks of Zhangjiang River in Xiao Yun. Zhangpu county was set up in Suizhou, and later Huai' en county. Chen Yuanguang was appointed as the first secretariat of Zhangzhou. He founded official schools, promoted agriculture and benefited farmers, and created splendid Zhang Kai culture. At the initiative of Chen Yuanguang, 64 Central Plains soldiers who entered Fujian with their families settled in Zhangzhou, and encouraged young people in the army to marry local people, so as to strengthen national unity and make the soldiers and civilians live and work in peace and contentment. On the fifth day of November in the second year of Jingyun (July 11th), a few stubborn bandits rectified the party and rebelled, and sneaked into heaven to worship Yueshan Mountain. Chen Yuanguang led the Qingqi resistance, but was hacked to death by the rebel leader Lan Feng with a high knife. He was buried in Ota's Dashiyuan and submitted to Bao Tao Wei, the general of the town army. After the death of General Chen, emperors of all dynasties praised his pioneering work and made him knighted many times. The people feel that their kindness is regarded as a god, and the fragrance in the temple will not be replaced in the future. "There is no biography of Tang Shi, and there is a temple in Zhangjiang to worship the general". Lu Wangshou, the magistrate of Zhangpu County in Song Dynasty, vividly described the grand occasion of Zhangzu's opening a temple to worship Chen and expressed his feelings of fairness and freedom.

The temple is about 60 meters long from north to south and 18 meters wide from east to west, covering an area of nearly 1500 square meters. It consists of three parts: Zhaobi, Dayuan and Dianti. The main building is divided into hall, patio, cloister and main hall, with a construction area of 500 square meters. The main hall is five rooms wide and four rooms deep, with a single eaves resting on the top of the mountain, a beam-type stone-wood structure and rammed earth walls around it. There are side rooms on the left and right side of the hall. The temple is equipped with a "reception room" with a column of stone tablets on the left.

There is a woodcarving shrine in the center of the hall, dedicated to Chen Yuanguang and his wife. Zheng Chen statue in front of the seat. On the right is the shrine of Ma Wei, with the plaque of "Woman Hero" and the statue of Wei Jing, Chen Yuanguang's grandmother. On both sides, it says "Women's Long March is near the sea, and the Central Plains goes south to the sky". On the left is Xu Tianzheng's shrine, with a plaque of "Jiangong Nanjun", and the Book Association "come together to commemorate the history of the earth, promote literature and benefit the people". There are two side halls on both sides of the main hall, the "Prince" hall on the left and the "Uncle Rou" Chen Huaiyu hall on the right. There is a square stone furnace of Ming Dynasty in the main hall, which is 0.8 meters wide, 0.5 meters high and 0.5 meters thick. Standing on all fours, it is engraved with the regular script of "Chongzhen Renshen (1632) Spring King's First Month, Jinpu, Liu Deng Bookstore" on the front, which is an early stone carving cultural relic in the existing temple. The beams in the temple are painted with colorful tapestries. These character stories and flower patterns complement each other with circular relief decorations such as melon pillars, lintels and sparrows, which set off the essence of national art and embody the typical architectural decoration style in southern China.

The foyer is a three-mountain mountain with five rooms wide and two rooms deep. There is a horizontal plaque on the horizontal purlin that says "merit lies in the people". It is an inscription by the famous contemporary expert in the history of Sui, Tang and Five Dynasties and Professor Pan from Korea of Xiamen University, and it is an objective evaluation of the historical position of General Chen's ancestors in developing Zhangzhou.

Xiao Yun Wei Hui Temple is an important window for Zhangzhou to carry out cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries and between Fujian and Taiwan. Over the years, domestic and foreign tourists have been jostling with each other. There are also many beautifully-made gold-lettered plaques in the temple, such as "Holy Patriarch in Zhangtai", "Holy Deqin 'en" and "Four Seas in Huize", which are all cultural gifts given by "Zhang Kai Wang Sheng Temple" in Taiwan Province Province, Bao Dao, and are vivid carriers of cross-strait culture, as well as powerful proof that Taiwan Province Province's cultural roots are in the mainland.
