introduction
The cultural relics of the Six Dynasties are in the air, and the sky is light and cloudy, and the present and the ancient are the same. - Du Mu
Cultural relics are of great significance to both the country and the people, the proof of an era, and the inheritance of traditional culture. While the times are developing, we also need to review history, so that we can always maintain the roots of the Chinese nation, just like repairing a house, the foundation is not stable, and there are hidden dangers in buildings that are high.
In our impression, cultural relics are generally placed in museums and appreciated and viewed by posterity. But not all of them are inside, after all, only experts can identify the existence of cultural relics, so some cultural relics can only be lost in the human world at the beginning, waiting for "Bole" to find, just like a piece of "washboard" on the side of the pond in Zhejiang, it was placed on the side of the pond for decades, and later people found out that it was the holy will! What's going on?
The washboard is in Sanfang Village, Taizhou, Zhejiang Province, and there is a pond in the village, and people in the village usually go to the pond to wash their clothes. Because people at that time were very frugal, and there was no washing machine when washing clothes, they could only wash with water, so they could not be used at home, and most things were shared at that time, so people took the clothes to the river to wash together, so that they could save water and wash the clothes. The stone slab was placed just right by the river, and people were particularly comfortable washing clothes on it, and they could wash their clothes very clean, so people didn't try to figure out the true origin of the stone for a while and a half.
All that is known is that the stone is different from the ordinary stone, as if it has been processed, with dense words written on one side and patterns on the other, but no one has really understood what is written on it. There are only some legends about this stone in the village, saying that this stone may have been carried out of the cemetery, which sounds a little incredible, so people are reluctant to investigate what the identity of this stone is, and the stone has been by the river for a year and a year.
Later, when I went to the village to build a road, I needed to fill in the pond, so this stone was used as a stepping stone by others, and people walked back and forth on this stone, and the words on it were not very clear. Then later found an ancient stone stele in the next village, people did not dare to act rashly, and later also found experts to identify, based on this situation, the villagers of Sanfang Village are also thinking, why not also identify this stone, maybe it is also a cultural relic?
This stone has long lost its former appearance, and has been used as a washboard and stepping stone by people, which has long been unrecognizable. When the experts arrived, it took a lot of effort to know the true face of this stone, only to see that this stone was 80 centimeters long and about 70 centimeters wide, and the side of the inscription was a little blurry, and the only thing that was clearly visible was the four words "Fengtian Carrier", and the pattern on it was a lion. Looking at the content more carefully, it was roughly an imperial cook named Lin Xiu, because he was very satisfied with his cooking skills, so he was appreciated by the Guangxu Emperor, that is, a letter of praise, which was full of praise words, it turned out that this was a holy will, and the villagers who knew the result were stunned, such a holy will was actually used by the river for decades.
People only know that this is a holy will, but there are also many doubts, first of all, who is this Lin Xiu, who knows only his official position, he was a Wupin official at that time, although this official position is also quite high, but it will not be carved behind the stone slab "lion's mouth sword" pattern, this was a transgressive behavior at that time, why did he have this courage? This is also unknown, and the village is relatively remote, so these have become secrets. People did not think that this usually inconspicuous washboard turned out to be a cultural relic from more than 100 years ago, fortunately someone could find it, otherwise they really did not know what kind of consequences there would be. epilogue
Although it is not known how Lin Xiu was recorded on the stone and where his descendants were, he must have been a big figure in Taizhou at that time. Later, this humble stone slab was also offered by people, which can also be regarded as enhancing the popularity of the village, and the stone in Sanfang Village is still there, which is also a kind of review of history.
