Where is Qu Yuan's hometown? I believe most people will think that it is Zigui, Hubei. Yesterday, Mr. Zhou Duwen, a famous scholar in Yueyang, broke ground and published the results of his years of painstaking research and textual research: Qu Yuan's hometown is Linxiang, Yueyang! Since then, the relationship between Yueyang and Qu Yuan has become closer. On June 5th, a famous scholar and contemporary scholar, accompanied by Mr. Li, one of the founders of contemporary Chinese cultural prose, one of the leaders of Hunan Army, a famous scholar, writer and critic, made a field trip to Linxiang, Yueyang, which further strengthened the argument that Qu Yuan's hometown was Linxiang. Qu Yuan's "complex of guarding hills" Qu Yuan wrote in the last chapter of Mourning: "Birds fly to hometown, and foxes will die in the first hill." It means that although the fox is dead, his head is facing its birthplace. When writing such a sad sentence, Qu Yuan was exiled in Lingyang (now Taiping, Huangshan, Anhui). Qu Yuan mentioned his native land many times in his later works: "He was ordered not to move, and was born in the south" (Ode to Orange), "Thinking about the West with his back to summer, and forgetting his old capital far away." (mourning). Homesickness and patriotism can be seen everywhere in Qu Yuan's works. However, where is Qu Yuan's hometown? For two thousand years, this problem has been puzzling future generations. In Zhou Duwen's textual research, Huxiang is the first mountain in Qu Yuan's mind. The relationship between Qu Yuan and Hunan can be proved from a large number of his works, and even more from his actions. According to Mr. Zhou Duwen's research, Qu Yuan wrote "Birds fly against their hometown, foxes die first" and soon began to wade into the river, "which lasted nearly two years. From Lingyang, crossing Ezhu, Hengmengze, Jijiang Township, crossing Lijiang, entering Xupu, returning to Longyang, returning to Changsha and sinking Miluo. " This is his long-cherished wish to return to the first hill after his death. A large number of facts have proved that the mountains and rivers around Dongting Lake area are the holy land and spiritual home of Qu Yuan's soul. "Zigui theory" is untenable. The basis of Zigui theory is mainly Li Daoyuan's Notes on Water Classics and Notes on Rivers. Li Daoyuan quoted Yuan as saying, "Qu Yuan has a virtuous sister who came back after hearing that she was exiled. The metaphor is generous, and the whole town is eager to follow him, so he is named Zigui. " "Dozens of miles northeast of the county seat, there is Qu Yuan's old Tian Zhai. Although the weir is full, it is still called Qutian. One hundred and sixty miles north of the county seat, there is Qu Yuan's old house, named Lepingli, which is based on stone. There is a female beard temple sixty miles northeast of the house, and the stone that smashed clothes still exists. " This is the only text in the history books that can be seen today that mentions Qu Yuan's hometown. And it's a quote. In fact, this "Zigui theory" was immediately denied by Li Daoyuan himself: "I said that Songshan's statement can be said to be well-founded, and I am afraid it is not the original intention of a famous county." Moreover, Qu Yuan's family is a noble family, while Lepingli is an oblate valley, 500 meters long and surrounded by mountains, so the traffic is extremely inconvenient. Archaeological exploration has not found cultural remains and sites before the Tang and Song Dynasties, and the name of Lepingli can not be found in pre-Qin classics. It is obviously unrealistic to regard Lepingli as the hometown of Qu Yuan, as a noble family of Qu Yuan and as a doctor in San Lv. Zhou Duwen believes that throughout the history of Chu, Zigui is the country and city of Zi Kui. In the twenty-sixth year of the Spring and Autumn Jubilee, it was destroyed because it didn't listen to Chu's orders, and later it became the border town of Chu, so there was no reason to return to the fief. Zhou Duwen said in a very popular way: "Zigui is remote and will not be the activity scope of extended families. Qu is a noble, and the fief is so far away. What should I do when I go to work? " What should I do if I command a war? "Jiangling is the birthplace of Qu Yuan. In recent decades, some scholars believe that Qu Yuan's hometown is Jiangling, Hubei. There are two reasons. The first is a poem written by Dong Fangshuo: "Born in a country, grew up in primitive". He believes that a country refers to a country, that is, it is "Ying", that is, it was born in Jiangling. Secondly, there is evidence in mourning. There are three points in the poem that show this fact, namely, "Go to your hometown and you will be far away", "Get rich and go to the place where you will live forever", and think that leaving Britain means leaving your hometown. But the biggest problem is that Jiangling is the capital of Chu (formerly called Ying Capital). In ancient times, there was never a monarch who sealed the capital (that is, the capital) to his children and courtiers, and all of them were sealed out of the capital. This is a general rule and common sense. Therefore, it seems difficult to say "Jiangling, Qu Yuan's hometown theory". In Zhou Duwen's argument, Jiangling happens to be the birthplace of Qu Yuan, which can explain why Qu Yuan's works regard Ying Du as his hometown. Linxiang is the hometown of Qu Yuan. " It's drizzling, green mountains and green curtains overlap, and there are suspected female ghosts standing on the rocks. They have treated each other for two thousand years. "This is what Zhou Duwen did when he visited Linxiang Longjiao Mountain the day before yesterday. Seeing straight in the drizzle seems to have fallen into the deep valley of two thousand years' culture, exclaiming: It's so similar, the mountains and rivers in Linxiang are too consistent with the scenery described in Lisao! In Qu Yuan's works, the description of the beautiful scenery of the hometown truly shows the local customs of Linxiang. Such as: "Make lotus flowers as clothes, and pick hibiscus flowers as clothes" (the custom in the lake area), "The roots of olive trees are knotted, and the pistils of Ficus pumila wear them", "I am nine flowers in the orchid and a hundred acres of trees". Another example is Li Sao's "Jiyuan Xiangnan Zhengxi" and Jiuge's "Yuan You Ben Lee Youlan", all written in the Dongting Lake plain of Hunan Province, which is not consistent with the fact that Zigui, Hubei Province is mountainous, and it is not the same as Jiangling, Hubei Province. Orchids, orchids, lotus flowers and other herbs written by Qu Yuan can be seen everywhere in Dongting Lake area, which has the characteristics of Dongting Lake Plain. Zhou Duwen verified that Qu Yuan's hometown is Linxiang, so Qu Yuan is familiar with Linxiang, which will naturally be reflected in his works. " "Yueyang County Records Linxiang" says: "Linxiang: the ancient city, Han handed down to the ground. According to the county annals: Chu Zicheng and Zhou Qu are as real as people, namely. "Zhou Duwen believes that it is clear that Linxiang is the place where King Chuping ordered the long-range construction of Quyi Castle, which is also the proof that Quyi fief is in Linxiang. After careful, precise and rigorous textual research, in the article "Qu Yuan's First Hill Complex and Qufeng Land", it is concluded that "Dongting Lake area in Yuanxiang area is where Qufeng Land is located. It is also a place where young people, middle-aged people and old people stay constantly. The magical scenery, trees and flowers there. Therefore, his genealogy and simple legacy deeply influenced his feelings and recited them repeatedly. Until the end of his life, the rural scenery became the most prominent color in his works. The folklore of Xiangxiang gave him the richest spiritual food. " (Reporter Mars, Henry Hui Wang, Zhou Duwen)
