Original text
Jiucheng Palace Liquan Ming
Secretary Supervisor and School Attendant Wei Zheng, the official of Julu County, wrote the Jiucheng Palace Liquan Ming in Wei Zhenguan VI In the month of Mengxia of that year, the emperor went to Jiucheng Palace to escape the summer heat, and this was also followed by Renshou Palace. In the Guanshan Kangdian Hall, there is a pool in the ravine, couplets are built across the water, towering towers are divided into rocks, high pavilions are built around it, long corridors are everywhere, the buildings are intertwined, and the terraces and pavilions are uneven. If you look up, you will see hundreds of miles away; if you look down, you will see a towering tower of thousands of feet. The pearls and jade complement each other, the gold and jade shine together, the clouds shine brightly, and the sun and moon are obscured. Watching him move mountains and return to streams, he is extremely poor and luxurious, and follows people's desires. His good deeds are deep and profound. As for the Yanjing Liujin, there is no steaming air, the gentle breeze is moving, but there is a desolate coolness. It is a good place to rest your body and a place to sincerely nourish the spirit. It cannot be compared to the sweet springs of Han Dynasty. The emperor's love is in the weak crown, he manages the four directions, he is almost at the beginning of his life, and he cares about hundreds of millions of people. He first uses his martial arts to conquer the world, and finally uses his literary virtues to care for people far away. It crosses Qingqiu in the east and Danlang in the south. They all offer Chen to serve Zhi and re-translate Lai Wang. They join Luntai in the west and Xuanque in the north. They merge with the prefectures and counties, and the people are registered as households. In the year of Qi Shu, peace and tranquility are far away, and all the people are living in harmony, and the spirit is perfect. Although it takes advantage of the two rituals, it will eventually be taken care of by one person. The body and belongings are left behind, protected by the wind and rain, and the people are at heart. They are worried and sick from overwork. They are just like Yao's muscles, which are like wax, and even worse, Yu's feet are calloused. Needles and stones are added repeatedly, and the bones are still stagnant. When the couple lives in the capital, every time there is a scorching summer, everyone asks me to build a palace, so that the common people can enjoy themselves and nourish their spirits. The Holy One loves one husband, cherishes the property of ten families, is deeply closed-minded and refuses, and is unwilling to submit. It is believed that Sui's old palace was built in the past. It would be a pity to abandon it, and it would be a heavy work to destroy it. Things are important and follow the rules, so why change it. So the carvings were cut into plain shapes, damaged again and again, stripped of their beauty, repaired their decayed parts, mixed with sand and gravel on the edges, painted mud on the whitewashed walls between them, connected the jade bricks to the earthen steps, and continued the moss in the palace. Looking up at the magnificence, we can take into account the past; looking down at the humiliation and frugality, we can learn from Hou Kun. This is what the so-called supreme person does nothing, the great sage does nothing, he tries his best, and I enjoy the result. However, in the past, there were swamps and salty valleys, and within the palace city, there was originally a lack of water sources. It was sought but not found. It depended on one thing. It was not caused by human power, and the holy heart never forgot it. On the sixth day of the fourth month of the lunar month in Guangdong, I went up to the middle palace and looked at the terrace. I walked leisurely in the shadow of the west city and hesitated under the high pavilion. I looked down at the earth and felt it was slightly moist, so I used my staff to guide it. A spring then gushes out, which is led into a canal by a stone sill. It is as clear as a mirror and sweet as sweet wine. It flows to the right of Danxiao in the south, flows east to the double palace, runs through the green suo, lingers in the purple room, stirs up the clear waves, washes away the imperfections, can guide the positive nature, and can make it clear. mind. Reflecting the group of shapes, nourishing all things, with the inexhaustible kindness of Zhan, the Xuanze is in the constant flow, stealing the essence of Qianxiang, and covering it with the treasure of Kunling. Note: "Li Wei" says: The king's punishment and death should be considered a crime, and the reward of tin should be regarded as merit. If the ceremony is appropriate, the Liquan will come out of the palace. "He Guanzi" says: If the virtue of a saint reaches Taiqing at the top, Taining at the bottom, and all spirits in the middle, then Liquan will come out. "Rui Ying Tu" says: The king is pure and harmonious, and if his diet does not contribute, then the sweet wine spring will flow out, and drinking it will make people live longer. "Dong Guan Han Ji" says: In the first year of Guangwu Zhongyuan, Liquan came out of the capital, and those who drank it were cured of all their chronic diseases. However, the arrival of divine objects to support the Ming sage can not only cure the illness, but also prolong the age of the person. Therefore, hundreds of ministers are attracted to each other, and I am still eager to push, but I can't push it. Although I don't want to stop, I don't just hear about the past, I fear the auspiciousness, and I can actually test it in the present. This is the mysterious talisman of God, and the emperor orders virtue. How can the ministers' low learning be revealed? But the duty is to record words, which is a matter of writing. It cannot make the country grand and beautiful. It has legacy policies, dares to record the facts, and makes inscriptions. The poem says:
Only the emperor cares about the fortune, dying of the universe, thousands of years, all things can be seen, Shun is great in achievements, Bo Yu is diligent and profound, he is in the forefront of the future, ascends to the third step and the fifth step. Seize the opportunity and follow the rules, be a sage or a god, conquer disasters by force, be a person from a distant place, write a contract without keeping it, open up without ministers, crown and attack, and Chen Zhi is salty and old.
The great road is unknown, the virtues are superior but not the virtues, the mysterious skills are latent and unpredictable, they are deep and unpredictable, they dig wells to drink, plow the fields to eat, they thank heaven for their merits, and they know the power of the emperor. It is carried by heaven, odorless and silent, all kinds of resources are at their beginning, the quality is flowing and changing, and it changes according to the feeling. The scenery is full of blessings, the flowers are flourishing, the Yun family is a dragon, the turtle is a phoenix, the sun contains five colors, the black is three toes, the praises never stop, and the writing never stops. The good above brings auspiciousness, the wisdom above is joyful, the flow is gentle and moist, the gurgling water is bright and clear, the taste is sweet and sweet, the ice condenses and the mirror is clear, it will be renewed with each passing day, and it will be inexhaustible. The road is peaceful at all times, with joy and springs flowing. I am alert in the evening. Although I have no rest, I live in a thatched house and enjoy traveling in it. The yellow house is not noble, and the world is worried. People play with their splendors, but I take the truth and return it to the true nature.
As the crown prince, Ouyang Xun, the male minister of Bohai, received the imperial edict.

[Translation]: When Emperor Taizong was twenty years old, he was engaged in planning and organizing activities to unify the world. When he was thirty years old, he became the monarch of hundreds of millions of people; he began to use force to unify China. , and later used a high degree of civilization and morality to make distant countries and nations close to each other: across Qingqiu in the east, and across Kaijiao in the south. Those countries and nations all dedicated treasures as a gift to the audience, and came to the audience through translations in different languages; From Luntai in the west to Xuanque in the north, they were all merged into the territory to establish local prefectures and counties, and the people there were registered as household registers (under the jurisdiction of the imperial court); the temperature of yin and yang was mild, the weather was good, the weather was smooth, and there was peace and respect for all living things. Everyone got what he wanted, and the gods came to bless him. Although this relied on the merits of heaven and earth, it ultimately relied on the emperor's strategy. (The emperor) sacrificed his life to benefit the people of the world. He thought about the people wholeheartedly in the wind and rain. He worried about the country and the people and became sick from overwork. His skin became like dried meat like that of Emperor Yao, and his hands and feet had more than 100 knots. Dayu, despite being treated with acupuncture and stone stones, still had blocked blood vessels. Living in Kyoto, the hot summer days often made people exhausted. The ministers requested that another palace be built so that the common people could recuperate and feel relaxed and happy. The Holy Emperor cherished the labor of every citizen and despised the wealth of the smallest unit in the folk household registration system. He resolutely refused and refused to listen to the requests of the ministers. He proposed that the old palace built in the Sui Dynasty was built in the past. It was a pity to abandon it and ruin it. Dropping it will waste people and money again. The established facts should be followed, why bother to change them again! So the decorations of the old palace of the Sui Dynasty were removed and made simple, and through repeated frugality, the original excessively luxurious parts were removed, and the damaged parts were repaired, so that the original red stone steps in front of the palace were mixed with gravel, and the original white walls Mixed with newly painted soil; the earth steps are connected to the original jade bricks, and the thatched hut is connected to the original palace. Looking up at the magnificence of the original palace, we can draw lessons from the failure of the Sui Dynasty due to extravagance. Looking down at the modesty and frugality of today's renovations, it can serve as a model for future generations. It reflects that "the most virtuous person (on the surface) has nothing." In the spirit of "the great sage does not make things on his own", they tried their best (to carry out large-scale construction projects), but the results made me enjoy them.
[Text] However, in the past, there were ponds and swamps, salty valleys and streams, and there was no water source in the palace city. If you ask for it, you can't get it. It depends on one thing ①, and it is not caused by human power. The Holy Heart never forgets 2.

Reflecting the group's shapes, nourishing all things, with the inexhaustible grace14, the Xuanze will flow forever15, and the essence of Qianxiang will be stolen16, and the treasure of Kunling will be covered17. Note: "Li Wei" says: The king's punishment should be a crime, and the reward of tin should be merit. "He Guanzi" says: "The virtue of a saint is as high as Taiqing 20, as low as Taining 21, and in the middle as Wanling 22, then Liquan will come out."

However, the arrival of divine objects25 actually supports the Mingsheng26; it can not only cure the illness,27 but also prolong its life. Therefore, hundreds of ministers28 are moving toward each other,29 and I will continue to hold on to them, but will not push forward.30 Although I will not stop, I will not just hear about the past, I will be afraid of auspiciousness, and I will test it in the present.

(To solve this problem), both It is not something that can be done by human beings. Emperor Taizong never forgot this in his heart. On April 16, the sixth year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty and Queen Changsun came to Jiucheng Palace. They admired the pavilions and pavilions along the way.

As a result, the spring water gushed out, so he built a stone sill under the spring water. The water was diverted into a stone ditch. The spring water is as clear as a mirror and as sweet as wine (the spring water passes through a stone canal) and pours southward to the right of Danxiao Palace, and flows eastward under the double palaces; the spring runs through the carved palace gate, lingering in the purple Fang Palace; the clear waves stirred up by the spring water can clean away the filthy dregs; it can make people develop a pure temperament and make people's minds exquisite and clear. The spring water is like a mirror that can reflect various forms. Because its moisture can make all things grow, just like the emperor's deep kindness will never end, the emperor's favor will always flow to everyone. It is not only the essence of celestial phenomena but also the ring treasure of the earth god. According to literature records: "Liwei" said: "The emperor's sentencing and execution of prisoners are indeed appropriate, and the rewards given to people are consistent with the person's merits. If they can comply with the laws and norms stipulated by society, then Liquan will be in the world." appeared among the courts." "He Guanzi" says: "If the saint's kindness can reach up to the sky, down to the earth, and reach all living beings in the middle, then Liquan will appear." "Rui Ying Tu" says: The emperor is pure and peaceful in nature, and does not use the rare things contributed by his ministers in his diet. The sweet spring will appear, and drinking it will make people live longer. In the year (56), Liquan appeared in the capital (the capital, Luoyang), and drinking it can cure long-standing and difficult-to-treat diseases." In this way, the reason why the magical Liquan appeared was to help the wise king; it can both It can remove long-standing and difficult-to-treat diseases and prolong people's lives. All the ministers were happy and moved, but my emperor was humble and did not think that the appearance of Liquan was due to his "Mingsheng". Although there is beauty, one does not think it is beautiful. Not only did the sages of the past feel like this and were afraid of the appearance of auspiciousness, but there are also current precedents that serve as lessons (there was a precedent in the Sui Dynasty where "auspiciousness" appeared and resulted in disaster). The auspicious signs shown by heaven also illustrate the great virtues of the emperor. How can these be carried forward by unlearned people! The duty of a benevolent official as a historian must be to "record words" and "record events", and not to allow state affairs to appear like this. The grand and beautiful things are not found in the history books, so I dare to state them truthfully and write them in inscriptions and engraved them on tablets.
