The above poem is contained in the "Yimen Guoshizhuang Dacheng Genealogy"
In order to let the reader know more about it, I will offer the "Book of Righteousness"
Yi Yue:
The way of establishing heaven, known as yin and yang; the way of standing earth, known as soft and rigid; the way of establishing people, known as benevolence and righteousness. Yin and yang are transported, and the full work of heaven is also; the rigidity and softness are formed, and the whole virtue of the earth is also; the benevolence and righteousness are taught, and the whole line of man is also. Therefore, the holy king of the ancients is in the heavens, the law is in the earth, and the people are in charge. Yao Shun Shuai is the world with benevolence, and Tang Wu shuai is righteous in the world. The righteous are also the foundation of benevolence and the foundation of action. Therefore, the Dunjiu ethnic group, xie wanbang, thick people, and beautiful customs are also. Zhou Defangsheng, King Wen Huaxing, Guan Jule and not obscene, Ant Siren but not Conniving, many descendants, flowing in singing. His poem reads: "The ant is witty, and the descendants of Yi'er are vibrating." "Inner worship relatives, outer tree sound teaching." The sound religion is from home to country. His poem reads: "Punishment for widows, but brothers for the kingdom." "However, the Warring States lost their relatives, the Qin dynasty deposed the sons, the Han Dynasty destroyed the prince, the Wei Zejue died in the end, the Jin divided the clans to usurp, and the Sui and Tang dynasties lost their programs, all of which were not enough to keep my Taizong Saint Delongsheng, and the people were friendly."
Kuang Lu Cui Wei, the number is the South Barrier. Mountains and rivers, Xiujia Ta County. Zhong Ying Chen Clan, a great man of generations, has lived together for generations, and has been watching the dynasty. Filial piety is kind to the family, and righteousness is evident in the country. According to its genealogy: Since the Han Tai Qiu Shi Gong Calendar Prince Jin Crown Prince Wash horse; Duke Kui 14 was The Prince of Yidu Shuming; Shu Ming the Fifth Grandson of Tang Xuanzong Dynasty, as the Right Supplementary Que, gave the secretary Shaojian; And zi Jing Jinshi and di, guan zhi zhi shi zhong, JiXian Academy bachelor, lack of descent, son from zi as heir, Shi Yan guan; Zi Guan, as Gao'an County Lieutenant; Irrigation Zi Huan, refuge in Quanzhou; Sheng Bo Xuan, living in seclusion in Lushan, Note Sima Qianshi history in the world, repeatedly unable to recruit, worship Zuo Shilang; his Sun Wang, from the migration of De'an County Taiping Township Chang Leli; Wang Sheng, the sense of chance, Feeling sheng lan, lan sheng qing. Qingsheng six sons (Note: 伉, 侍, 仲, 俛, 伟, 伸), the sixth son gave birth to nineteen (Note: 伉五子, 侍無子, Zhongsanzi, 俑三子, 伟五子, Shen Sanzi), nineteen born thirty (Note: The fifth son gave birth to eleven sons, Zhongsanzi gave birth to six sons, Mi three sons gave birth to five sons, Wei five sons gave birth to eight sons, Shen three sons gave birth to six sons, where thirty-six?) ), since the family is good, the family is prosperous.
Zhong's son Chong, is the establishment of the family law to show the future. Therefore, from the preface cloud: my family inherits the secret supervision of the tired work, inherits the legacy of the work, passes on the filial piety from generation to generation, and inherits the grave. By the children and grandchildren are beneficial, up and down harmonious. However, Yunrong is far from being foolish and different, and there is no way to be harmonious, and he is worried about the discipline of filial piety and friendship. Now the rules are to be brought to order, and the order is divided into honor and inferiority. Promote merit and ability, punish evil and persuade good, and order future generations to abide by family rules and live in harmony. Therefore, the chief of the establishment of the chief is to be the expert government, the treasurer is to be in charge of the family's wealth, the chief of the village is to supervise the rent, the survey is to order the men and women, the family school is to teach children, the Taoist academy is to burn the cultivation, the witch blessing is to prepare prayers, the doctor provides medicine stones, the craftsman uses the equipment, the Academy is waiting for scholars, the construction of the yu is used to serve the public door, the rest of the wine syrup salt and rice storage, the use of clothes and shoes, the festival of the three-hour diet, the period of the four-hour meeting, the ceremony of the entry and exit of the elderly and young, the ceremony of the morning and evening, the funeral of marriage, the arrival of the usher, and all the fibers are not careful. However, the stolen goods do not enter their doors, the eagle dogs do not play for them, the astronomical knowledge of the Learning of The Essence, the Strategists of the Treacherous Schemes, the Merchants and Merchants of the Lifu Xi, the Prostitutes and Gamblers, the Rooms of Selfless Wealth, the Kitchen Has No Other Food, the Children Know the Teachings, and the Inside and outside are the same. At that time, Chongshi was the governor of Jiangzhou, inspected the school and rode a regular attendant, and was also the imperial master, and gave the purple goldfish bag.
The patriarchal journey began in the first year of Emperor Zhaozong's Reign (note: 890 AD), to Gun to join the army for Jiangzhou, to try Taichang Temple, to serve the Ceremony Department Lang, and to the Southern Tang Dynasty Li Fujing's cousin, Biao Jiemen Lu. Thus the Chen clan's Special Yimen, the establishment of the Yimen, began with Li Fu Ding You (note: that is, in 937 AD) also. 昪卒煜立 (Note: 昪卒璟立, 璟古煜立. ), and it is also enlisted in the service of the section. At the end of the Kaibao Dynasty (Note: Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin's era number, that is, 975 AD), the seventh year of the Taiping Revival (Note: that is, 982 AD), Zhang Qixian of the Right Supplement Que ZhiShiguan was a transfer envoy, playing the words "Chen Clan has repeatedly been righteous, the whole family is filial piety, in the Yu Dynasty, the mourning, in the Holy Pilgrimage Order? It is advisable to exempt the household from following the levy of miscellaneous sects, and to show the greatness of the family. "It's a good idea. At the beginning of the Chunhua Period, Tang Jian, the minister of the palace, lied to Jiangzhou and played "Chen Clan has a thousand mouths of flesh and bones, in recent years he has lacked food, hunger and poverty, please lend two thousand stones of millet every spring to support him, (Qian Feng Nian to return the official)". (Edict). To Daozhong (Note: Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi year number, that is, 995-997 AD), Emperor Taizong sent his internal servant Pei Yuzhen to scatter the three Wumingshan Temple Temple, and the Deyi Family gave a copy, and Chen received thirty-three volumes, which were hidden in the home. In the second part of the "Chen Family Law", Emperor Taizong said: "There is this family in the world, and the true good family is also!" "The edict was sent to the history museum to be written, and the prince was given a copy of each, so that the Zhiyi Gate could pass on the law of the family." Yue Sui said: Chen's rents 4,000 yuan of rice per year, more than 200 miles away from Jiangzhou, boats and cars are not passable, and often tell 2,000 hu feet. If you lose money in the De'an Warehouse to charge the army and horses, then the heavenly grace will benefit the righteous door. Emperor Taizong promised it.
Gun Li Yi Men Fang; Fang Lord's Family for Thirty-five Years; Chongwei Chang official; Xun for Pu Xi Ling; Mei Wei Dehua Order; Li for Ji'an Ling; Gong For Si Hu to join the army; Fang for Tai Shu Shaoqing; Gong for Hongdu Zhangyuan; Secret Knowledge of Wuyang Affairs; all of them are handsome people with crowns. Rank is the envoy of the Duzhi Soldiers and Horses; Jean is the former soldier and horse envoy; Miao, Wo, and Qi are the envoys of Jiedushi; Gao is the head envoy of the Mongolian rebel army; Hui is the deputy envoy of the Solicitation; Liang is the instructor envoy; and all are also the candidates for official positions. Ruo Zhao, Ruo Yu, Ruo Chen, Ruo Chuan, Ruo Xun, Ruo Yu, Ruo Du, Ruo Xiang, Ruo Yong, Ruo Xu, Yan Nian and Deng Jin Di, and Qiao Province Xiang Zhi Bi Yue Zhi Was good at words, all of which are literary talents. Si Nai V and Chang, eight and big, not Du Tian finished xing qi, is actually the eternal life of the Chen family.
The world is one and the same, the people are also surnamed, and the government and religion are also integrated. If the pure are pure, the good is the evil, the good and the righteous, inherently different. The Sect of the Yuguan Chen Clan is pure and pure, good and harmonious, righteous and righteous; talented people are not reserved, skilled people are not shy, pure people are also; rich but not proud, poor and not complaining, good and harmonious; there are brave and not guilty, there are just and righteous people. I thought that the clan of the scholars, there was no such thing as Chen Zong. It is said that he is the way of Dun Yao Shun, following the law of Tang Wu, being transformed by King Wen, and receiving the precepts of the summons! Otherwise, what a righteous thing! The Heavenly Soldiers attacked Jiangzhou, and the seven Kundi of the Chen clan were all under siege. And the city was destroyed, the soldiers and civilians were killed and wounded, and the seven people returned to the same place, and there was no harm, and the sense of righteousness was also there. Since the end of the Tao, there is still famine in the years, and the Chen family has sipped porridge, mixed with algae vegetables, and is at ease with each other. In the summer of 997, Ding Youshi (997) was given the bingbu Shangshu to hold the historical pen, and the sitting word was improper, and even degraded the Ling table. At the age of 999, he will pardon the return to the east. Passing through Xunyang, Denglu Feng, obtaining the Chen family house, reading the genealogy, reading the family law, inquiring about the facts, knowing its status, because the record, shuhu passed on the four directions, leaving a message to the leaf.
Words: Shun has the most virtue, and then he will be chang. Ye Ye Chen, Zong Yi. The family French style is fixed, and the righteous door shows virtue. How to be on it, show the rules of the world. The ancients had a saying, and the family law is like an official. If an official is righteous, he is a peacemaker. Righteousness is not profit, and profit is not righteousness. The path of righteousness and profit, people think together. Shangyi is revered, and Shangli is poor. Yi Wei Chen Zong, hereditary righteous wind. Substitute For Fu Pseudo-Yu, yu ran dun help. Catch my Holy Father, favor the genus. The Great Song Dynasty has ten thousand years and hundreds of thousands of descendants. Deze bypassed, Chen Zongmianmian.

Xianping Fifth Year (1002) 壬寅月壬戍朔五日丙寅
The edict began with the writings of Lang Chen Kuo, that is, the seventy-second Chen Kuo was made the Ninth Heavenly Emperor.
The Seventy-third Emperor Chen Tan was the Duke of Chu.
Seventy-four Chen Wang (陳旺), the Duke of Jin;
The Seventy-fifth Emperor was the Duke of Yan;
The Seventy-sixth Emperor Washu Of The Duke of Xu;
The seventy-seventh Chen Lan was the Duke of Wu;
The seventy-eighth Emperor Chen Qing was the Duke of Qi.
The above-mentioned lineage of the Yimen Chen clan in Jiangzhou is ranked by the Holy Will of Emperor Renzong of Song.
It is the same as the lineage of most of the existing Yimen Chen clan genealogies, and it is also the same as the lineage recorded in Hu Dan's Yimen Chronicle.
Notable to note:
This holy decree of Emperor Renzong of Song gave a special gift to Bo Xuangong, the ancestor of the Yimen Chen clan in Jiangzhou: "Tang Dynasty works Lang Chenkuo, born to be a hero, and died as a god." Meritorious to the world, virtuous to the people. There is a law in the family, and there is chastity in keeping the tao. Yimou Yanyi, Bao Zisun. The posthumous statue of Er was erected in the Taiping Temple of Shengzhi Peak in Lushan Mountain, and it will be enshrined forever! ”
At the same time, it is also "Yi Yi Li Ancestral Hall in Jiujiang County!" Sealed as the True Emperor of the Nine Heavens! The inscription is: 'True King's Temple'".
That is, the "True Emperor Ancestral Hall" was established in Jiujiang County, dedicated to the "Nine Heavenly True Emperors" Tang Dynasty book Lang Chen KuoGong. For he was "born to be a hero and to perish as a god." Meritorious to the world, virtuous to the people. There is a law in the family, and there is chastity in keeping the tao. Yi Mou Yan Yi, Bao Yu Descendants".
"De'an Taiping Township Yiju, a special ancestral hall, set up five niches.
The seventy-second generation of wood lords of the Zhongyi shrine". Seventy-two generations of wood lords, that is, Bo Xuan Gong Yin Kuo.
Among them, the 43rd Taiqiu Duke set up a special sacrifice.
Father and son of the Left and Right Ancestors". That is, around the 43rd Duke Taiqiu (Chen Yu), the father and son of Tang Shulang (i.e., Chen Kuo, the Duke of Boxuan, and his son Chen Tangong) accompanied him.
This is the real reason why the Yimen Chen clan is called "Jiangzhou Yimen Chen". Because only Bo Xuangong was the ancestor who moved to Jiangzhou, and his grandson Wanggong moved to Yongqing Village, ChangleLi, Taiping Township, Putangchang, which was arranged by Bo Xuangong.
Moreover, Bo Xuangong's later years were also spent with his grandson Chen Wang in Yongqing Village. After his death, he was buried in Dongjia Mountain.
During the Tang Dynasty, there was no De'an County, and the area belonged to PutangChang.
In the seventh year of Wu Shunyi (the first year of Qianzhen, that is, in 927 AD), it was established as De'an County, which belonged to Xunyang County. Song Yuan because of this. Therefore, the title of "Jiangzhou Yimen Chen" should prevail.
Song Renzong simultaneously feudaled three ancestral halls to worship Bo Xuangong, which is the zhou ritual rule of the "Three Temples of the Hou". Boxuan Gongzi Tan, Sun Wang, Great-Grandson Ji, Xuansun Gan, The Fifth Sun Lan, and The Sixth Sun Qing were all enfeoffed by lang kuo gongfu.
