Yangjiabao Village is located in the north and south of No. 7 Road, also called Dabu Road, West of the South End Road, and close to Huayang Village. It is 2 km away from Huanshan Road. The elevated railway line of the Xicheng high-speed railway runs slightly east of the village. In ancient times, villages that could be called forts must have military structures such as city walls and moats. It turns out that this is a big village.

Northern Song tombs. Yang Li (930-999), also spelled Ru Ping, was the first ruler of the Song Dynasty. He served as the defense officer of Longzhou, moved to Guanglu Temple Cheng, Ezhou Zhizhou, and succeeded to the post of deputy privy councillor, and was famous for his good governance. The tomb was built in the second year of Xianping (999) of Emperor Zhenzong of Song, the tomb was originally in the shape of a round hill, and there is a stele "Tomb of Song Jinshi Yang Li" written by Bi Yuan, the governor of Shaanxi during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, which was erected by Wang Yicheng of Zhixian County, then Yan County. The monument is located about 200 meters southwest of the original site of the Tekijia family.

Let's get to know the only champion in the Northern Song Dynasty: Yang Li (the following introduction to Yang Li comes from the Internet)

Yang Li (930–999), courtesy name Ru Ping, was a native of Jingzhaoyi (present-day Yangjiabao, Pangguang Town, Hubei District, Xi'an, Shaanxi Province). In the fifth year of Emperor Mingzong of Tang's Tiancheng (930), Yang Li was born in the family of the imperial palace. His great-grandfather Yang Shouxin paid homage to Tangshan Nanxi Dao Jiedu and Tongping Zhangshi; Grandfather Yang Zhili was the assassin of Later Tang Junzhou; His father, Yang Renjian, also served as a local official for a long time.

Yang Li was deeply influenced and educated by his father and grandfather, and was brilliant since childhood, and studied at the Huayang Temple School when he was young.

In the first year of Jianlong (960), that is, at the beginning of the founding of the Zhao and Song dynasties, Emperor Taizu of Song immediately opened a branch to recruit talents. In February, Yang Li was promoted to Jin Shi. At that time, there were 24 jinshi on the same list; After the palace examination, Yang Li was the "first of the first rank", that is, the champion. The "Champion Tree" calls it "Guanzhong Ancient Singing Shouyan", that is, "the first champion of Guanzhong "and also "the first champion of the Song Dynasty". Shortly after Yang Lizhong, his father died of illness. Chinese feudal rites attach great importance to filial piety: those who become eunuchs and become officials must abandon officials and observe filial piety for three years, saying that they "transfer loyalty to filial piety"; When the three-year period of filial piety expires, it is said that "obedience" can only "also be filial and loyal" and return to the official position. In the old days, "loyalty and filial piety cannot be both", that is, this is also the case. Yang Liben respects his father and mother, and follows etiquette; After his father's death, he was so devastated that he could not enter the water for several days. After three years of service, he was supposed to go to Beijing to become an official, but Yang Li had no intention of pursuing a career path, and on the grounds that he was not enough to support his mother, he served his mother at home. Repeatedly urged by relatives and friends, Yang Li went to Beijing and served as a training officer of the Fengzhou regiment. Soon, he resigned as a mother.

In the ninth year of Emperor Taizu of Song's Kaibao (976), Yang Lifu went to Beijing, was summoned to the academy, appointed as the defense officer of Longzhou, and relocated to Guanglu Temple. When his mother was mourned, he was reinstated after being dismissed, and successively served as secretary Cheng, Tuntian Yuan Wailang, and Ezhou Zhizhou. During his term of office, he was honest and honest, impartial in enforcing the law, considerate of the people's feelings, and was supported by the people for his outstanding political achievements, and was also appreciated by the imperial court. In the first year of Emperor Taizong of Song (988), he joined the army in the Hubu Filling Office and moved to Langzhong.

When Emperor Zhenzong of Song Zhao Heng was appointed as the governor of Kaifeng, Yang Li was the official of the promotion. Zhao Heng has asked Yang Li many times "What year and the first", but Yang Li always silently does not answer. Later, Zhao Heng knew that Yang Li was the head of the Zhao and Song dynasties, so he regretted his question and said: "Yang Li does not boast of himself in the name of the subject, he is humble, and he should be reused." In the first year of Emperor Taizong of Song (995), Zhao Hengli became crown prince, Yang Li and Right Zhide, and transferred to Zhilangzhong. When Emperor Zhenzong of Song ascended the throne (998), Yang Li was 68 years old and was called to be a Hanlin bachelor and entrusted with the important task of "presiding over tribute". Soon, he paid homage to the Ministry of Works and became the deputy of the Privy Council. In the Song Dynasty, he was appointed as a deputy privy envoy, mostly as a trusted minister. Yang Li's ability to hold this position shows his position in the imperial court.

In August of the second year of Emperor Zhenzong of Song (999), Yang Li died of illness less than half a year after serving as the deputy of the privy council, at the age of 69. Song Zhenzong was very deplored, and said to the prime minister: "Yang Ligeng was straight and bitter, and died when he was about to be reused. So he braved the rain to go to mourn. Although Yang Li was a high-ranking minister of the imperial court during his lifetime, he lived in a narrow alley in the capital, so that Song Zhenzong's car could not enter. Song Zhenzong actually got out of the car and walked to his house with wet shoes. After mourning in front of the spirit, Song Zhenzong observed his cold house and family, and its pure and bitter situation made Song Zhenzong feel sorry for a long time.

After returning to the dynasty, Emperor Zhenzong of Song issued an edict to abolish the dynasty and mourn the dynasty, posthumously presenting Yang Li as the secretary of the military department; And in the temple of Huayang, a statue of Yang was sculpted, enshrined in the main hall, and shared sacrifices with the gods.

Yang Li's great-grandfather to his son, the fifth generation of officials, known as the Yang family "the fifth Qichangye".

Yang Li advocated cumbersome writing all his life, and because he "had no teacher's method" and did not stick to his ancestors, his poetry was very personal and spiritual. When Yang Li was in the Hanlin Academy, he drafted edicts in a strange way, was often laughed at, and did not care. Wang Jiusi, a famous person in the Ming Dynasty and Hu County, admired Yang Li very much, saying: "Wuhu Yang Zhuangyuan is an official who is clean and bitter, loves the people for the government, is elegant and elegant, is humble, and is filial to his son, and the officials and people of Sang Zi do not admire him!" ”
