The Daoguang Emperor gave the viceroy Na Yancheng a stele of poetry, which is located in the ancient Lotus Pond Chenhan Courtyard. The stele is 275.5 cm high, 78.5 cm wide and 16 cm thick. The head of the stele is embossed with a dragon, and the stele is surrounded by dragon patterns, and the inscription "Royal Book Purple Light Pavilion Statue Praise".

Na Yan Cheng (1762-1833), Zi Yi Tang, Zhang Jia Shi, Shao Jiu, Dong Fu, Manchurian ZhengBaiQi people, grandson of the university scholar Ah Gui, the second son of the Gongbu waiter Abida. In the fifty-fourth year of Qianlong (1789), he was elected as a Shujishi of Hanlin Academy, and edited by Hanlin Academy. He successively served as a cabinet scholar, a minister of works, a waiter of the Ministry of Works, a scholar of the Head of the Hanlin Academy, a shangshu of the Ministry of Works, a minister of internal affairs, a shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, a governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, a viceroy of directly subordinate to the government, a shangshu of the Liyuan Academy, a shangshu of the bureaucracy, and a shangshu of the Punishment Department. In September of the eighteenth year of Jiaqing (1813), he was awarded the title of Governor of Therapist for his meritorious efforts in suppressing the Tianli Sect rebellion led by Li Wencheng of Henan. During his two-and-a-half-year term as Viceroy of Shaanxi and Gansu, he was given the title of Yili for revealing his collusion with the envoy Chen Qi during his tenure as Governor of Shaanxi and Gansu. In October of the fifth year of Daoguang (1825), he was appointed governor of Zhili for the second time. During this term, Na Yancheng's vigor did not diminish, and he drastically streamlined the organization, which was greatly appreciated by the Daoguang Emperor. In the eleventh year of Daoguang (1831), due to the Rebellion of Zhang Ge hui in Xinjiang, the Minister of Chincha Na Yancheng went to Xinjiang to organize the aftermath and failed to properly organize the aftermath, and was dismissed from his post for the crime of misleading the country and provoking trouble. In the thirteenth year of Daoguang (1833), Na Yancheng died, thus ending Na Yancheng's career at the age of 71. The Daoguang Emperor commented on him as "directly subordinate to the governor-general, but also serious." "Nian Qi's meritorious service in quelling the uprising, rewarded him with the title of Shang Shu and the title of Wen Yi."
Na Yancheng was a well-behaved figure in the bureaucracy at that time, he was good at calligraphy and literature, good at making friends with intellectuals, and had a lot of prestige in the political circles. The Lotus Pond Academy Fa Ti was engraved by him during his tenure as Viceroy of Zhili for the students of Lotus Pond College to copy. Na Yancheng's shortcoming is arrogance and self-righteousness. Therefore, posterity commented that his career career was "repeated ups and downs", rising fast, falling heavily, rising and falling, heaven and earth. Jiaqing criticized him: "He seems to be talented, uncertain, does not listen to people, is self-righteous, and although he has a little labor, he cannot hide his guilt." ”
"Imperial Book Purple Light Pavilion Statue Praise" refers to the inscription on the stele is the Purple Light Pavilion Statue Praise written by the emperor. On the northwest shore of the Middle Sea in Beijing, the Purple Light Pavilion began to paint portraits of meritorious heroes in the twenty-fifth year of Qianlong (1760) to show honors and rewards. The emperor inscribed imperial poems on the paintings, and these imperial poems were called "xiangzan". In August of the eighth year of Daoguang (1828), Daoguang issued an edict to quell the portrait of the hero of the Zhang Ge Huimin uprising in Xinjiang at the Ziguang Pavilion, specifically pointing out that Na Yancheng was also among them, but ranked last among the heroes of this portrait. The inscription on this stele was given to him by the Daoguang Emperor in the tenth year of Daoguang (1830) who gave him the ziguang pavilion's portrait of Yancheng. In the same year, Na yancheng carved a monument.
The poem is:
He has made great achievements in the construction of slippery cities.
After the achievement is determined, the use of length is the choice.
Jia Ru is loyal and straight, and he is dedicated to planning.
The caress of the suppressed, the same yang calendar.
The Minister of Chincha was directly subordinate to the Governor Nayan
Daoguang Gengyin Ji Chun Imperial Pen"
The seals of the two sides of the bell "Daoguang Chenhan" and "Protecting the People Without Frontiers" are ringing.
The poetic meaning is: Na Yancheng suppressed the Tianli Sect uprising led by Li Wencheng in Huaxian County, Henan Province, and he had made outstanding achievements; this great meritorious deed became a very good foundation for his future political career, and the merits of employing people were the best choices; to praise you (referring to Na Yancheng, the same below), and the planning of your painstaking efforts; whether it was conquest or appeasement, it must be recorded in your merit book as an official.
