"Pearl of poetry: Following the Song people to tanxi"
The Yun Dynasty was scattered towards the Dynasty
The tide is long, long, long, long, long
(Poke audio, learn to read correctly)
This funny couplet, many people think it is a paragraph. In fact, this pair hangs on both sides of the mountain gate of Jiangxin Temple in Wenzhou City, and was inscribed by Wang Shipeng, the "Champion Lang" of the Southern Song Dynasty. And the word-of-mouth phrase "The Prime Minister before the Mountain, the Emperor After the Mountain" refers to Wang Shipeng.
Yueqing, "The mountains and rivers are magnificent, the sea is in front of it, and the mountains are behind it.". "One mountain, one sea, one bay" has built a unique natural landscape and bred a thick history and culture. However, since the establishment of the county in the second year of Jin Xiaowu Ningkang, Yueqing has been silent for a long time in the local elite culture. Until the emergence of Wang Shipeng, Yueqing's culture flourished.
In the second year of the Northern Song Dynasty, Wang Shipeng was born in Meixi Village, Yueqing Tanxi Town, he studied hard since he was a child to seek revenge for the country, once nine to Lin'an, seven to Taixue, but because of the time when the traitors were in charge, the field was dark, and he repeatedly failed. It was not until the twenty-seventh year of Shaoxing that he participated in the temple examination with the Ten Thousand Words "Trial Strategy of the Court", and was approved by Emperor Gaozong of Song to be "flooded with scriptures, discussed in a mellow manner, and can be the first person", and was personally promoted to the title of Champion.
Wang Shipeng's contribution to his hometown is not only the honor of "Champion", but also the fact that education will blossom all the way in Tanxi.
Meixi opened a family school, humiliated and handsome to travel.
Looking back at the five years old, the son ended in the beginning of the week.
("Send Zhou Zhongxiang" Wang Shipeng)
When Wang Shipeng was 32 years old, he still studied at home due to the failure of the imperial examination, but at this time his reputation was already established, and sometimes apprentices came to ask for advice, and many people asked him to open a library to teach apprentices. A year later, with the assistance of friends, Wang Shipeng built a house in the south of the Xiaogan Well in Zuoyuan, opened a family school, and officially founded a bookstore, teaching with his second brother Mengling, and the name of the library was "Meixi".
Wang Shipeng named the library "Meixi", perhaps because plum blossoms were his favorite. According to legend, more than 900 years ago, in Meixi Village, Tanxi Town, there was a stream with plum blossoms planted on both sides. In Wang Shipeng's view, plum blossoms are proud of frost and snow, and they are cold and open, and they have a different wind bone. Therefore, he called himself Meixi, and sometimes simply called himself "Meixi Savage", and the bookstore was also named "Meixi Bookstore".
Wang Shipeng studied the history of the classics throughout his life, and was recognized as a famous poet and prose master of the Song Dynasty. He lived in the spring and autumn of the 60th century, served as an official for 15 years, leaving more than 2,000 poems and a large number of prose, the vast majority of which are preserved in the Complete Works of Wang Shipeng. In his poems, traces of his hometown can be seen everywhere.
I went home to Plum Blossom Creek and saw the shallow dip horizontally.
The hand-planted wood is as old as a man, and the snow sideburns are sparse to the snowflakes.
("Meixi", Wang Shipeng)
In the poem, Wang Shipeng not only mentions the elegant plum blossoms, but also mentions the ancient camphor trees planted by his own hands.
In today's Meixi Village, two camphor trees about 850 years old remain. The two camphor trees are like the patron saints of Meixi Village, protecting the peace and self-confidence of Meixi Village. According to villagers, this was planted by Wang Shipeng's relatives in the province when he returned to his hometown that year of high school, and in order to commemorate this glory, he and his wife Jia Shi personally planted it at the doorstep of their homes.
"A gentleman who wants to cultivate a family's government is not seeking wealth and benefiting, but only virtue, planting goodness!" Wang Shipeng may not have planted more than just camphor trees, but buried the concept of family style in Meixi Village. The appearance of Wang Shipeng gave his hometown Ofeqing Light Creek a surprise and also gave a possibility for the future.
Wang Shipeng went to Beijing nine times to catch the exam, passing through Huangtang Village in Tanxi Town many times. "Toward the Yellow Pond to rest on the black stone, the Twilight Qing River crosses the White Creek; look back at the red water on the ridge, and look at the five colors of the mountains and rivers." On that day, Wang Shipeng set off from Huangtang in the morning and walked until the evening before walking to Baixi. Although the mountain road is rugged, huangtang, Wushi, Qingjiang, Baixi and Chishui along the way are pleasing to the eye, which is the so-called "five colors of mountains and rivers in the middle of the fans".
Also on this ancient road, in the early winter of the First Year of the Southern Song Dynasty, Weng Chuan, Xu Jie, Xu Zhao, and Zhao Shixiu, who are known in literary history as the "Four Spirits of Yongjia", traveled to Yandang Mountain in a group, and when they passed through the Huangtang Shouchang Temple, they wrote poems of the same title as "Shouchang Daozhong".
The journey begins from now on, and the past must be seen.
The mountain plum on the back is thin, and the sea duck is cold with the tide.
The flat road is wide and wide, and it is difficult to rush through the mountains.
I heard people say that this winter is crippled again.
(Shouchang Daozhong, Weng Scroll)
At that time, the four of them set off from downtown Wenzhou, rafted to the Nanxi River, and then traveled from the ancient yidao road to Daitou Village in Tanxi Town, and after resting, they crossed the Shouchang Temple to take the ancient yidao to Yandang Mountain. The four chose to rest for a while in Daitou Village, because this is the hometown of Weng Roll.
Speaking of the name Weng Scroll, it may be a little strange, but when it comes to his poetry, you may suddenly realize that it is him!
The green is all over the mountains and the white rivers, and the rain is like smoke in the sound of the sub-rules.
In the countryside, there were few idle people in April, so they planted silkworm mulberries and planted fields.
("Country April", Weng Volume)
It can be said that it was the landscape of Daitou Village that gave birth to Weng Scroll, and Weng Scroll also gave back the beautiful poetry to this side of the landscape in his hometown. Weng Chuan's career is hopeless, there is no way to serve the country, and can only store the value of life in poetry, as well as the texture of the landscape that carries these poems.
Follow the Song people to tanxi, enjoy the plum in Meixi Village, feel the proud bones of King Shipeng of Yuanlang, walk into the old mansion of Huangtang Village, the dappled light and shadow and moss marks on the wall, telling the quiet life of the ancients, along the ancient road, strolling through Daitou Village, enjoying the idyllic nature of the countryside in April. Along the way, the scenes along the way became the source of inspiration for the poetry creation of the Song people, watering the flower of ideals pursued throughout their lives. Poetry is still there, the feelings of the poets' pursuit of seclusion are still there, and people can still feel the endless sound of elegance in the silent waiting of this landscape.
