Zhaojiabao in Song Cheng, Zhangpu, commonly known as Zhaojiacheng, is located in the north of Shuogao Mountain in Huxi Town, 35km southeast of the county. It was the seclusion place of a royal descendant living in Zhangpu at the end of the Southern Song Dynasty.
Zhangpu County is surrounded by mountains and seas. In ancient times, in order to prevent pirates and mountain thieves, the countryside relied on dangers to build a city, and the same people lived in the city. In case of emergency, they relied on the city to resist foreign aggression. According to statistics, there are 52 ancient castles on the coastline of more than 2 kilometers in the county. Among them, the most famous first push was first built in the second year of Song Xiangxing (1279) and expanded in the 28th year of Ming Wanli (16), which is known as "Five Miles and Three Cities". Zhaojiabao is divided into an inner city and an outer city. A three-story earthwork building called Wanbi Building stands tall in the inner city, which is the main building of Zhaojiabao. The building is built with granite slabs and concrete walls, with a circumference of 88 meters and a height of 13.6 meters, covering an area of more than 4 square meters. The first floor is divided into 1 rooms, the second floor is divided into 9 rooms, and the third floor is divided into four corridors. There is a courtyard more than 1 meter deep downstairs, and there is a tunnel on the right corner that can pass outside the city. The whole building is magnificent and solid, giving people a solemn, dignified and mysterious feeling. It is a well-preserved earth building with a long history in southern China.
The words "Wanbi Building" are engraved on the stone plaque at the entrance of the building. Why do you call it "Wanbi Building"? It turns out that it also has a desolate and tortuous historical story.
in the second year of deyou, he died in the southern song dynasty. In Fujian, the legacy minister of the Song Dynasty then held Liyi Wang Zhao Chang, whose year number was Jing Yan. In April of the third year of Jingyan, Zhao Min died, and Wei Wang Min succeeded to the throne, and changed to Yuan Xiangxing. In the second year of Xiangxing (1279), Zhang Hongfan was captured by Yuan, and Lu Xiufu, the prime minister, was only 9 years old when he was thrown into the sea to be martyred. At that time, Zhao Ruohe (the 1th grandson of Zhao Kuang Midea, the brother of Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin), the royal family of Zhao and Song who accompanied him to Cliff Mountain, took 16 warships out of Hong Kong and made a plan to go to Fuzhou, only to find a hurricane in Wuyu, where 12 ships sank and had to return to Zhangpu Puxi for landing. Because the yuan army searched very tightly, he changed his surname from Zhao to Huang, and successively hid in Yinkeng and Jimei. In the 18th year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty (1385), Zhu Jian, an imperial historian of Ming Dynasty, consulted the genealogy jade tree in a case of "marriage with the same surname" of Huang in Zhangpu, knowing that the defendant Huang Huiguan was a descendant of Zhao Ruohe, and immediately asked the court to give him a compound surname. And give a poem a cloud:
...
Song went to the Spring and Autumn Period for 2 years, and when did many resentments wear off?
Yin Yin wears golden armor in disorder. Throw a combat knife for death.
Yuan Di is a powerful country, and Zhao people have gone through all the mountains and rivers.
children and grandchildren are full of energy efficiency, and they are in charge of the purple robes given by the current dynasty.
...
In the fifth year of Qin Long in Ming Dynasty (1571), Zhao Ruohe's ninth Sun Zhaofan was admitted as a scholar, and served as a magistrate in Cizhou and a doctor in the household department. After he became an official in the 28th year of Wanli, he decided to go into the mountains because of "being insulted by the drama", so he built a building and built a castle under the high mountain in Xixiang, a lake, and lived together.
in the history of the examination, after the downfall of successive dynasties, the dynasty changed, but it has not been heard that the so-called extinct kings can live together, which has been passed down for hundreds of years, and it is rare for Zhao Jiabao to build such magnificent buildings and castles.
from the above, it can be seen that the Zhao family named it "Wanbi Building" for this world's residential treasure, which implied the meaning of "returning to Zhao in perfect condition" and expressed the thought of "pursuing the future with caution". Zhaojiabao has another outer city. The main building is the "Guanting" built in imitation of the Lin 'an Palace in the Southern Song Dynasty. It is the fifth mansion with 15 rooms. There are 2 patios in the house, in front of which is the stone square and the Jinshi Square with high vertical stone flagpoles. There is a lotus pond pavilion in the garden, which spans the exquisite stone arch bridge in the pond and has a hexagonal pavilion. There is also a six-meter-high solid stone pagoda with seven levels of Buddha gathering. There are 2 relief Buddha statues carved on the tower wall.
In the first garden of Zhaojiafudi, there are also inscriptions on music stones, such as Wushi, Mo Chi, Chaoyun, Yubei, Geyi and Jiancheng. Among them, there is the "Songzhu Village" written by Zhang Ruitu, a great scholar in Ming Dynasty, a famous calligrapher. "Mo Chi" stone tablet is 1.56 meters high, .68 meters wide, .5 meters high and .45 meters wide. It is written by Mi Fei, one of the four great calligraphers in the Song Dynasty.
The ancient architectural complex of Zhaojiabao still exists today. One hundred households and more than 6 descendants of Zhao still follow the ancestral customs of Zhao, and it is full of the life of Bianjing in the Song Dynasty. Therefore, it is an ancient castle with great value in studying the history, architecture and folk customs of the Song Dynasty, and has been listed as a provincial cultural relics protection unit.
"Wanbi Building" has also been turned into an exhibition hall for the history of the Song Dynasty, displaying the portraits of eighteen emperors of the Song Dynasty, related Song history, cultural relics, ancient and modern celebrity paintings and calligraphy handed down from generation to generation by the Zhao clan.
