Xiangyang Wanshan humanity mingshan

Wanshan has a rich cultural background and many historical sites, which makes people admire you. Here, you can appreciate the splendid cultural accumulation of Wanshan and appreciate the natural landscape of many scenic spots in Wanshan. Wanshan is famous for Wang Can's former residence and Wang Can's well. RoyceWong, who was originally from Shandong, and Zhuge Liang, a fellow villager from Shandong, came to Xiangyang almost at the same time, and took refuge in Liu Biao, a fellow villager from Jingzhou. Not reused, so he lived in seclusion in Wanshan 15 years. Later, he returned to Cao Cao, worshipped him as prime minister, gave him the title of Commissioner, and followed Cao Shi to North Korea until he became a servant. His "Ode to the Building" has been celebrated throughout the ages and is famous all over the world, so it is recognized by future generations as "the crown of seven sons in Jian 'an". Later generations also compared RoyceWong and Cao Zhi, collectively known as "Wang Cao". He is the author of Wang Shizhong. People are known by their names, and mountains are spread by people. Wanshan has RoyceWong's former residence; Naturally, it will attract literati to mourn. They wrote poems with Fu, which added cultural details to Wanshan.

As for his former residence and well in Wanshan, there is no trace to test now, but its location must be near the Han River at the foot of Shandong Province. According to research, there is an ancient well at the top of Wanshan Mountain, about 30 meters from the main peak of Wanshan Mountain to the east of Yakou Saddle. According to farmers nearby, the ancient well has long been sealed, and now the site is a V-shaped pit with a depth of about 3 meters and a surface diameter of 5 meters. A half-moon ivory wellhead stone with a length of about 2m, a width of about 1.3m and a thickness of about 15cm lies on the bottom of the pit. Its inner mouth is round and smooth, and there are still ditch marks caused by years of grinding ropes when lifting water from the well. So far, there are two theories about its destruction. One is the decline theory. According to the official records during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, "Zhong Xuan Tower was underwater to the north of Shanhe Wan", indicating that RoyceWong's former residence was destroyed in the Ming Dynasty and fell into the water. The second is the theory of destruction and waste. According to Mr. Xi Xingquan, a famous prose writer in Xiangyang and vice chairman of the Municipal Writers Association, in the article "Talented people are famous mountains and poor mountains", "According to records, RoyceWong Caotang is at the foot of Shandong, and now it is a factory building ...", which means that the destruction of RoyceWong's former residence was not done by a generation, but "now it is a factory building." This is confirmed by the fact that there is only the Book of Songs in historical records and poems and songs since the Tang and Song Dynasties, but there is no former residence. As early as the Song Dynasty, Yuan Feng's copy of Wang Can's Stone Well Column said that in the third year of the Tang Dynasty (AD 674), it was necessary for our company to move the stone well column (the fence to protect the stone well) to Xiangzhou Secretariat for safekeeping. Zhenji, the Prince Scheeren, also wrote Shijingzhu. In the seventeenth year of Zhenyuan (AD 80 1), he served as a secretariat in Ren Xiang, and also remembered this matter. In the second year of Huichang (AD 842), lujun, the messenger of our times, wrote Shijingzhu. Du Fu, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, made it very clear in his poem Huiji: "My monument is not dark, but Wang Jing is still there." These stone tablets and poems only record that Wang Canjing is still well preserved, but there is no mention of his former residence in the text. Visiting the old farmers nearby, I heard that there was an ancient well at the eastern foot of Wanshan more than 30 years ago. According to the living tradition of our country, the well must be near the house and not too far away from it. Therefore, RoyceWong's former residence should be located in the area of the original ceramic factory at the foot of East Lushan Mountain, and its destruction and waste theory is also reasonable. As for the "whereabouts theory" of Wang Shen's former residence in Wanli Prefecture of Ming Dynasty, it has been more than 1 360 years since Wang Shen's Buju Wanshan to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty (Jian 'an period), and its records may be just legends, which may not be credible. The beautiful Wanshan Mountain is not only the favorite mountain of countless literati; It is not only the mountain that the goddess emperors (Liu Xiu and Liu Bei) yearn for; And there are many samurai generals who are also eager for mountains. General Zhennan of Jin Dynasty and Du Yu, the secretariat of Jing Xiang, are the most representative ones.

Who's Du Yu? According to the Book of Jin? According to yang hu Biography, in the fifth year of Taishi in the Western Jin Dynasty (AD 269), yang hu, the general of Zhennan (who was in charge of Jingzhou's military and political affairs and left Xiangyang), was ill in bed because his ambition to unify the regime of Sun Wu in the south of the Yangtze River failed to be realized. Before his death, he went to visit his founding emperor Sima Yan and recommended the right general Du Yu to take his place. After the death of yang hu, Sima Yan, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, tearfully visited Du Yu and took over as the general of Zhennan, in charge of the military and political affairs of Jingxiang. After Du Yu took office, he lived up to the recommendation and trust of his predecessor, Yang Hucheng, and conducted strict training for the overseers with remarkable results. In just two years, in the first year of Taikang in the Western Jin Dynasty (A.D. 280), he "gathered all the people and destroyed them on behalf of Wu" (like a mirror), realizing the great cause of "unification of three parts" through the ages. In the last chapter of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, 120 years, Luo Guanzhong described this historical fact in the history of China with the whole chapter of "recommending veteran Du Yu (referring to yang hu) to offer a plan to reduce Sun Bin by three points". In the Western Jin Dynasty, Xiangyang people built "Du Yu Temple" in Xianshan as a memorial.

Du Yu, a founding father of the Western Jin Dynasty, was a great statesman who made great contributions to China, and he also had a special liking for Wanshan. He often leads many people to visit Wanshan, go hiking, drink and write poems. Finally, he remembered Wanshan, and set up a "Du Yu Monument" by the river at the east foot of Wanshan. What I want to introduce to you is that this monument is not an ordinary tombstone or monument, but a cultural monument that celebrates Wanshan. According to historical records, Du Yu used mountains to describe people and water to describe the world. On this monument, he expressed his feelings about literature, thought and philosophy, that is, he expressed his sigh about life, the universe and mountains and rivers, expressing that life is endless, mountains are valleys, and the seabed is mountains, so as to set up a monument to warn future generations, so as to be extraordinary and refined. Its mind is so vast, broad and atmospheric. It is more meaningful and valuable for later generations to evaluate this monument than Su Shi's Red Cliff Fu. Because Su Shi's "Red Cliff Fu" only narrates the historical facts of Cao and Wu Battle of Red Cliffs, while Tu Yubei expresses his views on the universe, nature and life, including literature, thought and philosophy, which is very famous in the ancient cultural circles of China. But unfortunately, the inscription of Du Yubei was not completely recorded in historical materials. Hundreds of years later, it fell in the Hanshui River not far from the east side of Wanshan Beach. According to the Records of South Yongzhou (from Liang Wudi in the Eastern Jin Dynasty in 389 AD to Emperor Liang in 554 AD, overseas Chinese in Xiangyang settled in Yongzhou), fishermen and woodcutters can often see the Du Monument at the bottom of Wanshan Lake on sunny days. Du Fu, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, said in the poem "Huiji": "My monument is not dark, but Wang Jing is still there." He regarded Du Yu as a relative, saying that it was not Du Yu's fault that Du Yu's tablet was buried at the bottom of the river, and boasted that Wang Canjing was still preserved at the top of Wanshan Mountain. Ceng Gong, a poet in the Song Dynasty, also said in his poem Wanshan that "Xie Peigai is secluded, and the monument will eventually be cut down". On the one hand, he praised the antiquity and beauty of Wanshan with the romantic myth of "Xie Pei gives pearls", and at the same time expressed infinite regret for Dubai sinking into the bottom of the river with the landslide. Cao Lin, a poet in the Ming Dynasty, also said in his poem "Spring Goes to Wanshan": "The name of ChristianRandPhillips Xie Pei is empty, and Du Yu's contribution to sinking the monument has stopped", which affirmed the fact that Du Yu's monument sank at the bottom of the river at the northern foot of Wanshan. I think it will be a blessing in the cultural history of the Chinese nation if the ancient channel of the Han River is cleaned up and Tu Yubei is salvaged, and our Xiangyang will also become more famous on the land of China. According to the records of Xiangyang County in the third year of Tianshun in Ming Dynasty (AD 1459), "Laolong Temple was built in the northwest of the city 10, which was built by the previous generation and rebuilt in Jiayin, Hongwu, Ming Dynasty (AD 1347)." He also said that "Laolong Dike is located in the west of the county, bordering the Hetao River in Han and Jiangxi provinces, reaching Wanshan in the west, and there is Laolong Temple on it, hence the name." According to this record, the positional relationship between Laolong Temple and Laolong Dike shows that Laolong Temple is "ten miles west of the city" and Laolong Dike is "eleven miles west of Wanshan", that is, the bibcock Dike goes directly to the foot of Wanshan Mountain, eleven miles away from Xiangyang, while Laolong Temple is not at the foot of Wanshan Mountain, only ten miles away from Xiangyang, that is, one mile east of Wanshan Mountain. Therefore, Laolong Temple is different from the ancient Sumeru Temple on the top of Wanshan Mountain, and Youlan Temple and Baodi Temple are not the same thing. It was "created from the previous generation" to protect the Hanjiang levee. It collapsed in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties.

About the Old Dragon Temple and the Old Dragon Dyke, there is a folk story near Wanshan, saying that Wanshan is the leader of Xiangyang section of the Han River, standing proudly in the upper reaches of the Han River west of Xiangyang. Before the Old Dragon Temple was built, the Hanjiang River was flooded every year. Even from "In the Three Kingdoms period, Hu Lie was the prefect of Xiangyang, and built a dike to keep out the water" (in the words of Xiangyang County Records) and "In the Song and Yuan Dynasties, the defenders of Xianghe had to take the dike as a guarantee", but because Wanshan turned a blind eye and the flood was more rampant, the dike built was "tired and tired". After Xiangyang local officials realized that the dragon head of Wanshan must be respected first to harness the river, they built the Laolong Temple at the head of the Han River embankment at the foot of Wanshan Mountain. Since then, Wanshan bibcock was very happy and readily used force to contain the Hanshui River, making the Yangtze River embankment impregnable, and the Hanjiang River outside Laolong Dike meekly flowed eastward, with a vast blue wave; The old dragon dike is lush and full of singing and dancing. "

The above story is naturally a beautiful legend, but it embodies the awe and worship of Wanshan by Xiangyang people since ancient times. This is also one of the reasons why scholars of past dynasties must visit Xiangyang Qian Shan. Throughout the ages, I don't know how many dignitaries and poets have praised it. He wrote many "Diqu". "Dige Song" in the Southern Dynasties Yuefu Music "Xiangyang Music" chants: "Xiangyang City is in the morning, and Diliu is at dusk. The children of the levee are dazzling. " Legend has it that it was written by Xiao Gang of Liu Song Dynasty (that is, Jian Wendi of Nanliang, reigned from 550 to 552 AD). During the Song and Liang Dynasties, it was a song and dance accompanied by music. When Liu Yuxi visited the Old Dragon Dyke, he sang Three Poems on the Dyke, the third of which said, "Spring Dyke lingers around the water, and the flag pavilion of the restaurant opens two times. At night, the building invites guests and the sails fall. " Li Bai also wrote many Diqu, one of which lamented: "I used to be a Dike and went to Shangong Building. The window is full of Bifeng, and the mirror is flowing. " Meng Haoran wrote: "Where is the levee fun? Cars and horses run together. Spring grass grows at the age of 18, and it is in February and March. " According to the old farmer nearby, there is an unknown hill between Wanshan and Liu Zishan (now Xianglong Landscape Avenue is located at the commanding height of Lianggang, and Wanshan Brick Factory dug it with soil and turned it into a highway). From then on, the Qinba Ancient Road passes between the unnamed Shannan and Liu Zishan, which is the throat of the ancient city Xiangyang in the east, hence the name Liuziguan.

According to the present geographical situation, the road west of Lianggang commanding height of Xianglong Landscape Avenue is not the original Qinba ancient road, but only built on the "Panshan Highway" of the ancient Han River ancient road. This is only a matter of rebuilding the highway several times after liberation and in recent ten years. The true remains of Qinba Road still exist. It runs from west to east on the high mountain south of Xianglong Landscape Avenue, passes through the office building of the current Vocational and Technical College, reaches the original Xiangyang County Ceramics Factory, climbs the unknown hill between Wanshan Mountain and Liu Zishan to the south, and reaches Liuziguan. The exact location of Liuziguan should be in front of the current Yuhang Company (formerly known as Hongwei Factory). In ancient times, Liuziguan was not as dangerous as it is today, and it had a soothing effect. According to local records, Liuziguan area used to be a wild place, where tigers and wolves often haunt. Cao Lin, a poet in the Ming Dynasty, said in his poem "Spring Goes to Wanshan" that Wanshan "faces Hanshui in the south and Qinguan in the west". The "Qinguan" here refers to Liuzi Pass, which means standing on Wanshan, facing Xiangyang in the southeast and surging Hanshui in the north; It starts from Qinba Ancient Road in the west and stops at Liuziguan. It can be seen that Liuziguan in Ming Dynasty was much higher than the mountain that Qinba Ancient Road passed from the west, which shows how spectacular, straight and towering Liuziguan was at that time. Boarding Liuzi Pass, looking eastward and commanding, you will reach the Shili wilderness in Xiangyang and the ancient city of Ma Pingchuan, which further demonstrates the grandeur, precipitousness and sublimity of Liuzi Pass. Su Shi has a poem praising: "If you don't go through customs, you can swallow Chu." Climbing high and melancholy is accidental. I'll know who I'm worried about, but after I suffer. Tuan Tuan is on the mountain, reading elm willow every year. "

There are many scenic spots and stories in Wanshan and its surrounding areas, such as Han Gaotai, Shi Yang Temple, Taishan Temple, Overlord Sword Top and so on. All these require our efforts to collect, write and organize. Wanshan is an inexhaustible series of historical and cultural books; Wanshan is an inexhaustible treasure house of mysterious culture; Wanshan is a natural scenery gallery that one party can't write or draw. It is the pride of Xiangyang people, the pride of Xiangyang land and the enjoyment of Xiangyang in the future.
