Wan Zhang, a Xue man during the Warring States Period (305 BC), was an important disciple of Mencius and the main compiler of the Confucian masterpiece Mencius. "Compendium of Easy Knowledge" contains: "Mencius went to Qi, starved of food in Zou Xue, retreated to the disciples of Wanzhang, described the meaning of Zhongni, and wrote seven articles of Mencius. In the preface to "Mencius", it is also said: "Meng Ke is to describe the virtue of the three generations of Tang Yu is to be incompatible with those who are like this, and retreat to the disciples of ten thousand chapters, and the preface poem describes the meaning of Zhongni, and makes seven articles of Mencius."
Han Zi said: "Meng Ke's book, not written by Ke himself, his disciples are ten thousand chapters, and Gongsun is ugly and Ji Ke is deaf. It can be seen from this that Mencius's great thoughts, words and deeds can be spread and coexist now, and the credit of Wanzhang is great. Where is Wan Zhang from? The historical books only say that they are from Xue, and there is no specific record of this. "Teng County Chronicles • Historic Sites" records: "Wanzhang Tomb, sixty miles south of Teng County. According to this clue, we have conducted many investigations and found that several closely connected villages in Changzhuang Street, Xuecheng District, Buling, Xiaoshan, Dianzi, Liumiao, and Wangzhuang are Wanzhang's hometown, that is, Wanzhuang Village during the Warring States Period. There is Xiwan (now Weishan County) in the west, and Dongwan store (now known as Dongmai store) in the east. The original name of the store was Zhongwandian, and the province was called the store.
Wang Zhuang is the false sound of Wanzhuang. Wanzhuang was annihilated because the Yellow River flooded many times, and Weishan Lake flooded the villages along the lake. Wanzhuang was flooded, and the ancestors of the surname Wan moved to the northeast. After liberation, there were still 10,000 elderly people with the surname of loneliness. The stele of Emperor Guandi Temple of Liu Miao is engraved with "Wanshun donated five hundred". Wangzhuang village west 100 meters of the original small stone bridge, the north end of the bridge stands 1.6 meters high stone stele, the stele on the horizontal book "Wanzhang Bridge" big characters, the inscription small characters due to wind and rain erosion, muddy water impregnation, the handwriting is indecipherable, can be vaguely recognized: "the bridge to ten thousand chapters of life, with its construction in the hometown of ten thousand chapters also..."This bridge was destroyed in 1958 in the Great Leap Forward, the original Zhongwan Bridge on the West Panlong River in Dianzi Village, now only the bridge foundation remains. The tomb of Wanzhang can no longer be found, according to legend, the current Guandi Temple is built on the tomb of Wanzhang. There are still stone tombs from the Warring States period and pottery shards and utensils from the Shang and Zhou dynasties. The above examples illustrate: Dianzi, Buling, Xiaoshan, Xiwan, Liumiao, and Wangzhuang villages are Wanzhang's hometowns......
