Fucheng Calligraphy Liu Qi

Known as one of the four great anti-gold stars in the Southern Song Dynasty. Liu Qi (A.D. 1098- A.D. 1 162) was born in the Ji Dynasty and was the son of Liu Zhongwu, a general in the Northern Song Dynasty. Liu Qi, a famous gold fighter in the early years of Southern Song Dynasty. Liu Qi is a character! The team he led was called the "Eight-character Army", and the words "Serve the country wholeheartedly and swear to kill the gold thief" were tattooed on his face, which once broke the "iron floating figure" and "turning the horse" of Jin Wushu. Later, Qin Gui kicked him out and was deprived of his military power. He became a local official. Liu Qi went to the local area to actively renovate the fields, control water and prevent insects, and was loved by everyone. According to records, Mi later saw that the monarch was in chaos, and the Jin army invaded the south constantly, but there was no way to serve the country, and eventually he died of grief and indignation. According to the eggs laid by some turtles recently, General Liu Qi is not qualified to be a national hero like Yue Fei, although he struggled against the Jinbing.

When he was most famous, Liu Qiyin wrote a poem "Partridge Sky" after his retirement. According to legend, after Liu Qi retired, he lived in Xiangtan, Hunan. Because he doesn't love money, and his family is poor after retirement, he often goes to the small shop in the village to eat wine. People in the shop don't know Liu Qi and often treat him like a fool. Liu Qi sighed, "millions of people are just idle. Now it is being ignored by them. " So I coined this word.

Not to mention Liu Qi's reputation and courage to retreat. Equally admirable is that after this seclusion, I am willing to remain silent and stop seeking the quiet state of mind that is famous in the countryside. The spring breeze under fame is full of pride and ambition, which is indeed a feeling that everyone is willing to enjoy, but after that, few people can do it. After all, these are two diametrically opposed opposites. In officialdom, how many people can't see through this layer and dare not give up power until they die, because they can't stand the cold shoulder after losing power. "Don't be annoyed or laugh", try to look at the world and live with a different attitude. In fact, we will find that every kind of life has its happy color.

Liu Qi Temple, located on the northwest wall of Fucheng, is mainly dedicated to Liu Qi, a famous anti-gold star in the Southern Song Dynasty, accompanied by the stereotype of Shunchang magistrate in the "Shunchang War", and awarded the king, lieutenant Zhao Zun, Geng Xun, Yan Chong, rebel army and so on.

During the Southern Song Dynasty, he was as famous as Yue Fei and Han Shizhong. In A.D. 1 140, Liu Qi led 30,000 troops to Tokyo as deputy left-behind, passing through Shunchang, which is today's Fuyang City. He met Jin Wushu and led Jin Bing to invade south, so he decided to stay here. In order to show his determination to defend the city against gold, Liu Qi ordered the sinking of the ship and placed his wife in a temple. The front of the temple was full of firewood. If he was defeated, he was prepared to set himself on fire to save his honor. Then, with 20,000 Song Jun and 65,438+100,000 elite soldiers of Jin Wushu, they fought bloody battles in Shunchang, defeated 8 8 Jin J, and won a great victory in Shunchang. This was the first great victory in the Southern Song Dynasty's resistance to gold in history. In order to commemorate War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, and to thank Liu Qi for smashing the 8 Jin Army and saving the people from a catastrophe of 8 Jin Army, the Gong Liu Temple was built as a memorial.

Liuqi Temple has been continuously renovated in successive dynasties, and it was rebuilt in the Qing Dynasty only for ten years (1750), thirteen years (1808) and three years (187 1). In the early days of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the Kuomintang forcibly dismantled it in the name of "withdrawing from the city to defend the enemy". 194 1 year, Chang Huaan, the Taoist priest, raised funds to rebuild the three halls and three wings in the original site. There are nine colorful statues of Liu Qi, Chen Jian and others in the shrine of the main hall.

Liuqi Temple is now a key cultural relic protection unit in Fuyang City.

In the early years of Shaoxing, Emperor Gaozong of the Southern Song Dynasty, Yutang was a military fortress on the east bank of the Yangtze River. General Liu, with the deputy commander-in-chief of Jiangdong Road and Su Wei's pro-army, led the troops to guard this place, with outstanding military achievements, and the army and the people depended on each other. After General Liu insisted on resisting gold and opposing compromise, he was pushed out by traitors and Zhang Jun and died of vomiting blood.
