(1599— 1659), formerly known as Zi Jiu, later renamed Jin, Zi, alias Qian, Hidden Laker, born during the Reform Movement of 1898, owner of Jigu Pavilion, Du Suju, etc. Its pavilions are called Lv Jun Pavilion, Ji Gu Pavilion, Mugenglou Pavilion, Dulizhai Pavilion, Zaide Pavilion, Tusuju Pavilion, Bao Yue Pavilion, Cloud Chasing Boat, Shuanglianxuan Pavilion and Xugu Cao Lu, among which Ji Gu Pavilion is the most famous. Therefore, for more than 400 years, there have been different opinions about where to build the "Ji Gu Pavilion".
Say it in Ouqugezhuang. 1964 Four bluestone epitaphs unearthed in Gezhuang in April confirmed that Jin Mao's tomb was there after his death, so people speculated that Jin Mao's "Jigu Pavilion" was there.
Second, at Qixing Bridge. Located at the intersection of Zhangjiagang and Datang River, across Zhangjiagang, there are three ring holes, which have been destroyed. According to the article "Remember the Tomb of Mao Zi Jin Zhai" published in the fourth issue of Zhao Chang Monthly 1909, "Mr. Zi Jin, a reclusive gentleman in my hometown, lives in Qixing Bridge."
Third, it is next to Kuncheng Lake. According to Yang Hengyuan's article 1989, "In the spring of [1644] in Shen Jia, chaos broke out again, and [Jin Mao] hid the book edition in a thatched house next to a rock peak by the lake." Jin Mao also claimed to be a hidden lake, and his works include the Record of Hidden Lakes. Hidden Lake is Kuncheng Lake, so some people speculate that it should be next to Kuncheng Lake.
Cao Jiabang four said. According to Qian Dacheng's "A Chronicle of the Jin Dynasty"? In the seventh year of Shunzhi: "Mr. Kun inherited Hunan, surrounded by water and bent eastward, which was called Caojiabang."
During the period of 1990, Changshu City Records was about to be finished, and the Municipal Local Records Office asked me to discuss the Golden Hair Entry, and found that Golden Hair was mistakenly written as a Gezhuang person in the manuscript. For this reason, editor-in-chief Qu Honglie and deputy editor-in-chief Zhou and I conducted a special study, and finally changed to Hengjing [now Shajiabang Town], the county seat. There are three reasons:
First, our ancestors had the custom of avoiding ancestral graves and birthplaces (that is, yin houses and yang houses could not live together). Golden retriever is a big family and will not ignore this custom. Since there is a tomb of Mao family in Gezhuang, it is impossible for the "Jigu Pavilion" built before his death to be in Gezhuang.
Secondly, some scholars describe Gezhuang and Qixing Bridge as the same place in their works. In fact, the distance between the two places is 10, so it is wrong to regard them as the same place.
Third, there are a lot of relics near Qixing Bridge, including Maojia homestead.
Before 1965, near the bottom of Youjiahu polder in the northwest of Shajiabang town, a bluestone plaque was often seen lying across the field head. It is 150 cm long, 80 cm wide and 18 cm thick, with the words "Mugenglou" in the middle. The inscription below is dated: 35th year of Guangxu reign in Qing Dynasty [65438]. At that time, I was a water conservancy engineer, and I also saw this stone tablet. Because I am only 2 1 year old, I don't know the origin of this stone tablet. I remember1March, 965, when building a bucket door with bricklayer Jin Guixing, Jin Guixing proposed, "There is a stone tablet on the edge of the field. If it is broken, it is a perfect match. " I agreed without much thought. Who knows that I wanted to split the stone in half, but only half of it was left, and most of it was broken into pieces. This small piece was later built at the Dadoumen at the intersection of the North-South Canal and the East-West Canal. Later, I learned that Mugeng Building is one of Jinmao's libraries. Because of my ignorance, I have always felt guilty about the loss of cultural relics. I tried several times to dig out half a piece of the remnant tablet. After seeing the scene of village leaders, I felt that Doumen was very big and still in use, and it was a remnant monument, so I gave up.
In order to further confirm the exact location of "Mugeng Building" and "Ji Gu Pavilion", I visited people in the industry many times and went to the field for further verification, which was quite fruitful. Over the years, I have mainly done the following work.
1, private visit. To this end, I visited the old captain and the old farmer who has cultivated this field for a long time to listen to their views.
First, according to the old man Chang Ahui, the captain of the Fifth Team of the former Caobang Brigade, "There used to be a long grave to the west of Qixing Bridge. 1958 when the cemetery was destroyed, it was found that there were no coffins in it. Listen to the old people say that this is Mao's carriage road, and there is a boat dock at Qixing Bridge. After the goods landed from the dock, they were transported to Mao's house by carriage through this road.
Secondly, according to Lu Yiyuan, the captain of the Third Team of the former Shuangbang Brigade, "The land beside the building is cultivated by our production team, and you can often see the green slate. It says "Mugenglou", and the signature should be in the Guangxu period. "
Thirdly, Ma Yonggen, who was also a member of the third team of the former Shuangbang Brigade, said: "When we were ditching in the ground, there was a lot of rubble in the ground, which was difficult to dig. At the bottom of the building, people also dug a lot of plum blossom piles, indicating that there used to be many houses here. "
Fourth, Wu Quanmei, the old lady of the third team of the former Shuangbang Brigade, said: "A long time ago, there was a long corridor from the side base of the building to the base of the Mao family, and there was a top bridge on the Xiaojiang River." Mrs. Wu died in 1990, and her words are credible.
Fifth, according to He Liangbao, the former accountant of the Second Team of Shuangbang Brigade, "The names of the fields of our production team are all related to Maojia, such as Maojiaqian, Maojiajiao, Qitian and Louji." Flag-raising field shows that Mao raised the flag here at that time, and the side foundation of the building shows that this is the homestead next to the building.
Sixth, Mao's homestead in the small town is now the ancestral grave of his descendants. According to Mr. Mao Ruying, a resident of Hengjing Town and the owner of the grave, the golden hair was on his ancestors, and the words "Chicken Bone Pavilion" were written in his family's sundries. It can be seen that the descendants of Golden Hair may build graves on abandoned old houses.
2. Field observation. The stone tablet of "Mugeng Building" is located right in the center of "Youjiahuwei", at the east of Qixingqiao West Bridge 1.5km, west to Kuncheng Lake 1.5km, south to Xiaojiang 250m and north to Daguanghe. From here, across Xiaojiang to the south, there is a highland covering an area of 10 mu, which is called "Maojia House Base" by the locals. In fact, this is an extension of Jinmao's home. I also got a comprehensive understanding of the basic situation of "Youjiahuwei" by working as a water conservancy engineer and compiling "Shajiabang Town Records". Youjiahuwei: Located in the northwest of Shajiabang (formerly known as Hengjing) town, it is adjacent to Zhangjiagang in the east, Xiaojiang (commonly known as Hengjiang) in the south, Kuncheng Lake in the west and Dajing River in the north. Youjiahutan was named after Wei. It belongs to William of Bangaotian, with a total area of 12 15 mu, belonging to four natural villages: Caobang, Shuangbang, Xinzha and Panyong. Among them, the ultra-low farmland is 23 mu, the original river channel 1 channel, and two new rivers have been opened after the founding of the People's Republic of China, with an existing water surface of 32 mu.
3. Get information. According to Xiao Chongyou's diary, "In front of the first-grade class in a public school [referring to Shi Mei Primary School], there is a large stone basin in the style of begonia. 10 years ago, it was turned out from the abandoned Maozi Golden House in eastern Hunan and transported to Shi Mei. It took sixty people three days to get ashore from Hongqiao and settle down, which was witnessed by adults. " At that time, Xiao Chongyou was teaching at school. According to the diary, the time of Yuncheng should be thirty-five years of Guangxu, which is the same as the time when the monument was laid in Mugeng Building. It can be seen that the stone tablet was placed when the big stone basin was transported away. According to the analysis of the Map of Jigu Pavilion handed down from ancient times, this pavilion is located on the central axis, surrounded by pavilions such as Lv Jun and Er Ru. There are eight buildings behind the pavilion, on which are library boards, and the downstairs and side compartments used to be places for engraving books. Consistent with the number of houses people say.
By the way, in the third episode of China in Reading, a feature film shot by CCTV recently, it is mentioned that Jin Mao hid this book in a rock peak near Shanghai to prevent a military disaster. This is inconsistent with historical facts. "Chicken Bone Pavilion" is about 20 Li away from Shang Hu, and it should be Kuncheng Lake. It is impossible to go further and further in an emergency. This is the only flaw in this feature film.
To sum up, there is no doubt that Mugeng Building is located at the "tail of Youjia Lake" in Shajiabang Town. There is Qixing Bridge in the east, Caojiabang in the south and Kuncheng Lake in the west. Ancient books say that Kuncheng Lake, Qixing Bridge and Caojiabang actually refer to the same place.
