Xiao Liuliu Chapter 301
Summer is a paradise for children, whether it is catching seasonal birds, attracting dragonflies or If you go swimming in the Changhe River, you have to pass by Liulangzhuang. We have talked about straw, straw bags, and Jingxi rice before. Of course, the main producing area of ??Jingxi rice is Liulangzhuang.
Liulangzhuang
Liulangzhuang is located in the west of Haidian Town, east to the upper slope of Haidian Town, west to the east wall of the Summer Palace, Xiuyi Bridge and the Changhe River, and to the north to Erlong Gate and the West Courtyard Playground, south to Bagou Village. Since ancient times, Liulangzhuang has had lots of water, lots of land, and few people. A winding path passes through the south of the village. The willow trees on both sides hang down their tender, silky branches. When the breeze blows, from a distance, they look like balls flying in the wind. The smoke is like waves of green, and it is also known as "Liu Langzhuang".
Looking at the weeping willows up close, each one has its own unique charm, graceful and graceful, and like a gentle girl. The long and narrow willow branches are just like hair, draped down softly, straight to the waist, some as long as On the ground, the wind blows and flutters, which is really beautiful.
Haidian is famous not only for its water, but also for its colorful mountains and smokey willows. Mi Wanzhong in the Wanli year of the Ming Dynasty was interested in the area of ??"Peking University" because it was surrounded by streams and smoke. Liu Suo was fascinated. Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty was also interested in clear springs and smokey willows. He just built the Changchun Garden in the northwest of Haidian. When Qianlong came, he was even better. He built the Summer Palace on the west side of Liulangzhuang and personally went to the west embankment of Kunming Lake to plant weeping willows on demand. It is still there today. There are more than a dozen old willows that accompanied Qianlong in those years, and they stop on the west embankment of the Summer Palace with enchanting scenery, as shown in the picture.
? I went to swim in the Changhe River. I took the west fork via Haidian West Street and went downhill to the east entrance of Liulangzhuang. I passed the paper mill and the duck farm. I could hear the croaking ducks all the way away and walked along the willow-shaded path. All the way to the west, you can see weeping willows and endless rice fields, dotted with a small village, which is the famous Liulang Village.
The small road passes south of Liulangzhuang Village and leads to the east wall of the Summer Palace. It leads north along the wall to Jiangong Gate and the main entrance of the Summer Palace. Not far to the south is Xiuyi Bridge and the Changhe River. The road along the river is also the embankment of the ancient Changhe River. On the east side of the embankment is the rice field of Liulangzhuang. This place is very unique. The water level of the long river is much higher than that of the rice fields. There are many small sluices built on the river embankment. As long as the sluices are opened, the river water will flow into the rice fields of Liulangzhuang. There is a story related to Cixi in this high water place later.
? Talking about Liulangzhuang, in the Ming Dynasty, the boundary of Liulangzhuang was to the south of Wanquanzhuang, and to the west was Shiliwengshan Lake and Kunming Lake. The terrain was flat and the water source was sufficient, making it a good place for livestock farming. The small village formed in the center of the field was called "Niulanzhuang" (Records of Wanzu of the Ming Dynasty), (Collection of Canghutong, Wuchengfang, Capital City), and (Miscellaneous Notes of Wanshu). Later, "Niulanzhuang" was renamed "Liulangzhuang" and it has to start with Li Zicheng.
? It is said that in 1644, Li Zicheng established the Dashun Kingdom in Xi'an in the first year of Yongchang. Zhang Xianzhong established the Daxi Kingdom in Chengdu, Sichuan in the first year of Daxi. Aixinjueluo Fulin, who was outside the customs, was not idle either, and immediately proclaimed himself emperor in the first year of Shunzhi. Chongzhen, the oldest player, has played in his seventeenth year. This year, the land of China played the Four Kingdoms.
? Li Zicheng, who belonged to the Dashun Kingdom the most among the four regimes, was extremely arrogant. Old Li was so hot that he dared to set fire to wherever he was caught. Chongzhen’s Ming Dynasty. Lao Li sat down in the Forbidden City. Unexpectedly, the dragon chair was not yet warm, and there was another fire in the backyard.
? What? Think about it, if you are an insurgent, you will use the banner of the people. When you become the squad leader, all you can think about is your own comfort and loving someone. Now that the whole city of Beijing belongs to me, Lao Li, who should I photograph? He stretched out his hand and carried the most beautiful woman in the city into the palace.
? This beauty is not someone else, but one of the famous Eight Beauties of Qinhuai, Chen Yuanyuan. He screamed violently, "If a man can't protect a woman, how can he see anyone in person?" This is the famous saying of "turning the crown into a beauty in anger". This is none other than Wu Sangui, the commander-in-chief of Liaodong. As soon as he turned his face, he made peace with the Qing soldiers and rushed towards Beijing like a swarm of swarms. Now Lao Li couldn't bear it any longer. He ran, rolled up, rolled up and fled the city.
? Hey, the handsome young Shunzhi took advantage of Wu Sangui's east wind and blew into the Forbidden City in Beijing. He slipped into the Golden Palace and immediately laid out a Manchu and Han banquet. What is commendable is that although Xiao Shun'er was a Manchu, he not only valued Manchu culture, but also Han culture, and hired civil and military officials from the previous dynasty as officials.
? Youdao said that "it is easy to change a country, but it is hard to change its nature." The former court officials and people still had great resentment, and the anti-Qing voices were rising day by day. Xiao Shun'er, who was sitting on the dragon chair, was so smart. He held the dragon chair and shook his hands. He also explained: I was not the one who overthrew the Ming Dynasty. It was Li Zicheng who did it. There is no wrongdoing and no debtor. Concern about my current government.
? Not to mention, Xiao Shun'er was indeed remarkable after he took over the Central Plains. Later generations rated him as having six major achievements. Among other things, he did not abandon the Ming Dynasty palace, but It is to take advantage of this, which is unique in history. He promoted literature, worshiped religion, and was friendly to the Han people, which also laid the foundation for the stability of the Qing Dynasty.
? In order to reflect his kindness, he erected monuments and built temples with great fanfare, so that people could have faith and spiritual support. The easiest way is to change the name of the place. The name of the place must be changed to something that people like to hear. , like it but also meaningful. The Qing Dynasty had just been established, and what it wanted was courtiers who were loyal to the emperor and served the country. After searching through history, they immediately selected "Yang Family Generals" as idols to promote. Everyone knows that the generals of the Yang family were loyal to the Northern Song Dynasty. Four generations of the Yang family guarded the border and served the country with loyalty, leaving a heroic image that can be praised and praised by future generations. It was him, and the place name came from the generals of the Yang family.
Haidian is an important town in Gyeonggi Province, so it will not be a problem if the place name is changed. Although the Yang family has never been to Beijing or Haidian in history, the Yang family is loyal and patriotic! As a result, Haidian has also been associated with many stories and place names of Yang family generals. Nowadays, if you walk around Haidian, the place names for the Yang family generals are really popular, such as "Mu Guiying" and "Yang Liulang", "Guajiatun", "Zhaojiatun" and "Liangjia shop" where they dried their armor. ", the "Guangjia Pagoda" in Xiangshan, "Wang'er Mountain" where "Old Lady She" looked at her son, Baiwang Mountain, Xibeiwang, "Yangfang" and "Hanjiachuan" where the Yang and Liao armies faced off, and Yang Liulang's residence. "Liulangzhuang"
Liulangzhuang
? Liulangzhuang was first recorded in written records in the 51st year of Kangxi (1712), in the memorial of He Yi, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs: "Liulangzhuang is really In the sixth year of the Wumiao Temple's auxiliary hall, each of them had a house of eight li, spending one thousand, four hundred and thirty-five taels of silver, and built thirty garden houses in Liulangzhuang, with a cost of one thousand taels of silver."
? This Liulangzhuang "Zhenwu Temple" was supervised by Cao Xuan, Cao Xueqin's grandfather. People in the village call it the "big temple" of Zhenyue and it was built during the Kangxi period. Entering the third courtyard, there are the Zhenwu Hall and the Empress Hall on the central axis, and auxiliary halls on both sides. There are 42 houses. There are 22 Buddha statues and 29 deity statues in the store. There is a stone flag with a pole outside the mountain gate.
? At present, there are still Zhenwu Hall, east wing, and left and right wing rooms. There is one cypress tree, two catalpa trees, and a stone pedestal for the incense burner. In 2012, Liulangzhuang also disappeared in the long river of history, and only the incomplete "Zhenwu Temple" is left as shown in the picture.
