Eight views of the ancient Wuqiao Bridge

The Eight Views of Wuqiao in ancient times have long been famous, and the Kangxi edition of the county chronicle contains the eight scenic poems of Yongwu Bridge by Ao Wenrui. The Guangxu edition of the County Chronicle of Yiwen occupies one-sixth of the total length of the Zhi, but somehow none of these poems are recorded.

Ao Wenrui

And the relevant historical records of Wuqiao characters, there are only records about Ao Wenrui writing wuqiao eight scenery poems, Ao Wenrui, Nobo Village, Wuqiao County, Hongzhi Pengwuke (1498) to raise people, "Qifu Tongzhi" records that he was once the prefect of Tongshan, and the fact is the prefect of Tongren in Guizhou. Jingwen Xu Rushu's "Tongren Fu Zhi" also contains: "Ao Wenrui, directly subordinate to Wuqiao juren".

Ao Wenrui was the prefect of Tongren Province, zhishi returned home, devoted himself to farming, read behind closed doors, was as simple as a cold Confucian, and wrote a lot of works, but unfortunately very few were passed down. The most famous ones are the "Eight Scenic Poems of Wuqiao", Xionghun Dianli, Yi Cheng Yongjia Zhang Hou Title Qitang: "Twenty-four years of innocent officials, millions of filial piety and honesty". RongQi Xiangxian. The Guangxu edition of the "Chronicle of Wuqiao County" contains "the tomb of Ao Wenrui, the prefect of Ming Tongren Province, in the east of the city"

Ming Xiang Fan Jingwen Fan Ge Lao also mentioned the Eight Views of Wuqiao in the "Northern Wu Song Xiao Introduction", he wrote: "I Wu Inherent Eight Victories Yue Tan, Yue Qiu Tomb, Yue Zhaotai, Yue Chen Pavilion, Yue Huang River, Yue Yan Liu, Yue Chun Cheng, Yue Gan Quan, now have either annihilated or peeled off shan yi. Where does the "eight scenes" referred to?

The scenery of "Moon Lake" was called "Longtan Night Moon" by the ancients, and Fan Gelao once wrote in a poem that "Longtan Moon is cold and waveless, with nine rivers from the former Yingzhou." Looking north to Yanjing and south to Zhao, the scholar said the ancient lamentation song. The general location can be found in the Guangxu edition of the "Wuqiao County Chronicle" Volume 1 "River Canal": "Longwan is twenty miles east of the city, shallow and deep intermittent, flowing east of Ningjin County, the boundary of the Gujia River, the old zhi so-called Longtan Night Moon is also." There used to be dragons from here, hence the name. This day is dry. "Longwan" refers to the Dragon King River in today's county. The Dragon King River is a major tributary of the Xuanhui River, originating in the south of Dawa, Xisongmen Village, Dongsongmen Township, Wuqiao County, and flows only through Wuqiao and Dongguang Counties, and joins the Xuanhui River in Dongguang Housun Village. As for the specific location of the "Dragon Pond Night Moon" in the Dragon King River, it is estimated that no one can figure it out now.

The moon is cold and the city is dry, and the scenery is semi-blurred. However, in the autumn wind of yuzuka, the heroic spirit of a thousand years is strong in Northern Wu. This is what Fan Ge did when he returned to Wuqiao

"Autumn Tomb" refers to the "Autumn Wind of the Tomb", one of the Eight Views of Wuqiao in the old days, when referring to the tomb of Sun Bin. According to the Guangxu edition of the Wuqiao County Chronicle, Volume I records: "The tomb of the Warring States Qi Sun Zhen is fifteen miles southeast of the city, and there is a temple behind the tomb, and its village is named Sun Gong Temple, according to fangshan, there is also a cemetery." Fan Ge's old poem said: "Only in the autumn wind of the funeral tomb, the spirit of a thousand years of heroes is strong in the north of Wu."

According to legend, Wuqiao was a fiefdom of Sun Wu's descendants. There are indeed many people with the surname Sun in Wuqiao, and there are no less than ten villages named after Sun, such as former grandsons, descendants, and archwaysun villages. To the southeast of the ancient city of Wuqiao is a group of mounds that are said to be the site of the "Ecstasy Array" when Sun Bin and Pang Juan fought. Ten miles south of the mound, there is a Village of Sun Gong Temple, and there is a Sun Gong Temple in the east of the village, and the statue enshrined in the temple is Sun Zhen. At present, the tomb of Sun Zhen has long been gone, but in order to commemorate Sun Yuan, Wuqiao built a Sun Gong Ancestral Hall in the acrobatic world, and moved Sun Zhenshi cattle here.

"Zhaotai" refers to "Sunset Illumination Platform", which refers to the matsuri Terrace outside the south gate of the Old City. As for the location of the matsuri wind platform, the county chronicle has a record: "The sacrificial wind platform, on the embankment of the ancient Yellow River in the south of the city, is several meters high, the old and the point pavilion, the scenery is beautiful, and the resort in Yizhong is beautiful." Fan Gelao once wrote it in the "South Record of the Garden"

It describes the grandeur of watching the circus at the MatsuriDai (outside the south gate of the old city of Wuqiao County) at that time. After watching the circus, Elder Ge said, "The name of the stage is 'Sacrifice Wind', imitating Chibi, and has no origin, why is it called 'Circus Horse', not a ceremony but a matter of emotion?" If you want to change the festival wind platform to a "circus stage", you can imagine the prosperity of Wuqiao acrobatics at that time. In the essay, after watching the circus, Fan Jingwen boarded the "Pavilion with Points" and also made a description of the surrounding beauty of the altar: "Looking around at the mountain, the birds disappear." Back to [Mu ma] the city, cooking smoke, chaotic with the twilight, the huts are high and low, and there is no room at first glance. Unfortunately, by the time Fan Jingwen was in his later years, the altar was gone, and he once wrote, "The hook and pan hit the wave to the east, and the wind rolled the hoof wheel to crush the air." The person who scratched his head and built the embankment was missing, and the highest legend was the matsuri wind platform. "As for how high the altar is and how it is formed, it is not recorded in the literature.

Wuqiao writer Mr. Yuan Jianguo, in his novel "The Acrobatic King", once described the matsuri wind platform like this:

The altar is more than two miles away from the south gate of the county seat. Legend has it that the warring states period military scholar Sun Zhen built it to observe celestial phenomena. This platform is more than 10 meters high and has a radius of more than 6,000 square meters. There is a six-meter-high green brick and white ash watchtower on the platform, and at the top of the tower there is a platform that can be viewed by more than two dozen people. The altar is surrounded by the Matsuri River, with green willows on both sides of the river and poplars soaring into the sky; fish in the middle of the river playing, and lotus leaf fields. There is a three-hole wooden bridge in Matsuri Taipei, and on the side of the bridge, a crouching male lion's front leg jumps up in the air, glaring into the distance...

"Morning Pavilion" refers to the view of the "Morning Bell of the Pavilion". Knowing that Liu Cheng of Ming County once built a wind and rain building above the gate before the county rule, Shunzhi three years of Zhixian Wang Jiayu and Tongzhi second year zhixian stone school steps were rebuilt, "all confused by the scale of Kanyu is the bell tower." Zhengde was cast for five years and heard for miles. The old chronicle is called the morning of the tree pavilion, and the bell is also. (Guangxu edition of "Wuqiao County Chronicle"), Fan Ge returned to his hometown of Wuqiao, and once wrote a poem saying, "Layers of willow-colored horizontal pools, three miles of isolated cities and moonlights." The mountain rain building empty bell rang, open the door busy selling cakes. ”

"Yellow River" and "Smoky Willow" refer to the ancient "Yellow River Belt" and "City Willow Dragging Smoke" two scenic spots. Wuqiao once had the old Yellow River "The old Yellow River is in the southwest of the county seat, leading the water of the Sinu Temple Gate in Shandong En County, entering from Dezhou, running northeast from the south of the city to the county's Sancha River, hooking the Pan River to the east of the city, passing through Huangjia Town into the boundary of Ningjin County, extending for more than fifty miles, and then going north to Nanpi County. "The Mongolian poet Sadhu Of the Yuan Dynasty wrote a poem "Crossing the Ancient Yellow River Embankment" when he landed on the ancient embankment of Wuqiao, which is also an earlier poem written about Wuqiao. What the Yellow River Ancient Road looks like is not known, but because Wuqiao is a pan-area and is close to the county seat, it is appropriate to build a, and it is logical to plant willows on the embankment. People in the city go out of the south gate and climb the wind platform to watch the scenery, and the "Long Causeway Smoke Willow" will of course be attached to a scene. "A hill stands on the long causeway outside the city, and the old pine garden is on the bird road. Idle and dotting in the pavilion, Wanjing cooking smoke between the fingers. ”

"Spring City" will be thirty miles southeast of the county seat, on the east bank of the Wei River, and one mile north of Zhao Zhai. The base site exists, the grass and trees are from Mao, the grass is full of domain, and the so-called "empty city spring grass" of the old zhi is also.

"Ganquan Spring", when referring to "Bitter Well Ganquan", still has this scene. The county chronicle said that "the double well is in Wangjiazhuang, ten miles northwest of the city, and the two wells are only a few feet apart, one is sweet and the other is bitter, and the taste is very different." "The two wells are three feet apart, one in the east and one in the west, and the wellhead is round on one side, the east is a sweet spring, and the west is bitter water, and now it has dried up. With the evolution of history, the Wangjiazhuang at that time was now renamed "Shuangjing Wang" Village according to its "Bitter Well Ganquan".
