In which wang yaping was Wang Fuzhi born?
First, it was found that there was another Wang Yaping
Wang Yaping is the birthplace of the thinker Mr. Wang Fuzhi.
Wang Yaping in the camel alley
Recognized by official academic institutions, "Wang Yaping" is located at the foot of Yanfeng, at the southern gate of the former ancient county town of Hengyang, in jinguo Road, Yanfeng District, Hengyang City, in an alley called Camel Alley; there is no doubt about the meaning of the street.
Wang Zhichun, a high official from Hengyang, claimed to be the eighth grandson of Wang Fuzhi. Wang Zhichun wrote the "Chuanshan Gong Annals" in the winter of the eighteenth year of Guangxu. Annals. The opening chapter of the first part reads: "At the end of the forty-seventh year of the Ming Dynasty, when he was one year old, when he was a son in early September, he was born in The capital of Hengzhou. "The black and white words point out mr. Funayama's birthday and birthplace. Its authority is unquestionable.
Wang Fuzhi, a descendant of the Hengyang Wang clan, was born in Wang Yaping, the king of Chengnan, and there is nothing wrong with this. Eight years ago, the author was suddenly obsessed with the Chuanshan Book, and inadvertently found that there was another "Wang Yaping"; at the same time, in Wang Fuzhi's own notes and works, as well as in some recent ancient scholars and official literati commenting on Wang Chuanshan's related articles, some content always seemed to constantly remind me: "This Wang Yaping is not the other Wang Yaping." ”
I loved to read, and now I love Funayama books, and I have been deeply impressed by his esoteric and speculative, broad and unobtrusive spirit.
Discovering and verifying some discrepancies between Funayama's book and real perception is the business of experts and scholars. But I don't know if I suffer from obsessive-compulsive disorder, and the more I deliberately do not explore, the more these mysteries linger in the author's mind.
What can make a person who only reads books worry about it is probably a suspense that cannot be solved and unhappy in his heart.
It is necessary to emphasize the position that I should hold: firmly defend the mainstream view, that is, I also believe that the birthplace of Wang Fuzhi is the Wang Yaping outside the south gate of the city. But even so, I began a journey of inquiry.
The author's approach may be considered to be more extreme, in order to seek clues in the meantime: first, a comprehensive comparison of almost all the books on the Chuanshan Chronology that I can search; the other is to enter the keyboard again for articles that may involve Wang Fu's birthplace or Wang's ancestral homeland in Heng's ancestral homeland, whether it is Wang Fuzhi's own works or more than three hundred years after that, but all the works of ancient people. After the brief annotation, the relevant document chain is formed. Not only for the record of evidence, but also to deepen the understanding of Wang Fuzhi, you can also use word search function of Word to retrieve relevant information through the input of keywords, so as to facilitate your own thorough verification and comparison.
Unfortunately, the evidence that can support the thesis that "Wang Fu's birthplace, Wang Yaping, is at the foot of Yanfeng Peak and outside the south gate of the city" is zero in Wang Fuzi's own writings; in the books of recent and modern people, especially in the writings of experts in Funayama Studies, it may be only a repetition of the words of Wang Zhichun's senior officials.
Liu Yusong, a native of Yizheng, Jiangsu, was a scholar during the Qing Dynasty. After the Xiang army general Zeng Guoquan conquered Jinling City, he served as the governor of Libu Shangshu and Liangjiang, and Guangzong Yaozu, but Zeng Shangshu's first thing he did was to hire Liu Yusong into the Jinling Bookstore he initiated, and put him in charge of compiling and publishing Wang Fu's historical masterpiece "Reading through the Classics". During this period, Liu Yusong wrote the "Annals of Wang Chuanshan" more comprehensively and systematically.
Liu Yusong tells us in his "Annals" that when Wang Fuzhi was fifty-nine years old, he led his clan back to his hometown to pay homage to his ancestors.
Liu Yusong described this as follows: "(Wang Fu's eldest son Wang Fu) wrote the poem "Gurudwara", in which he noted himself: 'Ding Shudong, the people of the same clan returned to The Ancestral Ancestors of Dongzhou, and wept and worshipped the ancestors of the ancestors, and they were two years old, and the ancestors were pawns. ’”
Please note: Wang's poem "Gurudwara" records being held in his mother's arms when he was two years old. One of Wang Fu's families was "Hui" and "Dongzhou" to pay homage to Zu Yuan. Dongzhou refers to Dongzhou Island, one of the eight scenic spots in present-day Hengyang District. The existing Funayama Academy on the island has been renovated. "Zhou", for the island that can live in people, "island" and the "east shore" of the "east shore", collectively known as Dongzhou, today, a covered bridge flying frame. In the upper reaches of Dongzhou, there is an impact zone formed by the sharp bend of the Xiangshui River; the beach formed by the Xiangshui rush is called "White Sand Island" together with the west bank connected to it. The grand scenery of Baishazhou has not reappeared, because the dayuandu avionics hub has been built in the lower reaches of the urban area, and the water surface of the Xiangjiang River has been greatly improved.
Hengyang Dongzhou Island
Located in Dongzhou, Zhuhui District, Hengyang City, together with Baishazhou in Yanfeng District on the other side, it forms the most romantic and imaginative famous scenery in Hengyang City, that is, the core scenic spot named "Pingsha Falling Goose" sung by ancient famous songs.
In the sixteenth year of the Kangxi Dynasty (1677), Wang Fuzhi led the clan, including the infant eldest son Wang Shu, after paying homage to Zu Wei, he climbed the Yan Peak again, and then wrote a poem "Re-ascending back to The Dragon Feng". The poem has the sentence "Zhu Yong is like a dream fan on both sides, and the green grass is covered with a qiu in the spring".
The poem seems to tell us that Wang Fuzhi did not often climb the Yan peak in those years, after all, he was separated by a river. If he had been born in Wang Yaping under the Yan mountain, yanfeng would have been a place where he often climbed and traveled in the boat mountain in his childhood, and it was rare to have such an emotion in the poem! The "Double Shore" in the poem shows that he is standing at the top of Yanfeng Mountain, which stands on the west bank of Xiangshui, and is looking at the east bank. On the east bank of Xiangshui in the southeast direction, there is his hometown full of dreams; the sentence "Green grass when spring covers a qiu" shows that after more than thirty years, the back mountain of the old house where he lived as a child has been covered with green grass and mantana. The "Qiu" in the poem means mountain bag, small earth mountain. This "Yiqiu", shaped like a yarn hat, was called Sha Hat Mountain by the villagers in ancient times, and was called Wang Ya Mountain because of the arrival of wang fu's great-grandfather. What is a yarn hat, an ancient yarn hat, an official hat. To this end, whether it is the title of Wang Fu's poem or Wang Fuzhi's poem, it has unveiled a corner of the curtain of "where is Wang Fuzhi's birthplace" for us. Since then, all the evidence points to this place, which at that time was called "Wang Ya Mountain" by the locals.
The black gauze hat worn by officials of the Ming Dynasty,
The hill shaped like a yarn hat, there are all over the country, Hengyang Dongzhou Island Xiangshui on the other side of the yarn hat mountain, has ceased to exist, with the industrialization and urbanization process accelerated, early
This year, the Qing Kangxi Emperor, who was already sitting firmly in the jiangshan, and Wu Sangui, a former Ming dynasty rebel general who once again played the renegade game, launched a tug-of-war for Hunan. The people of Hengyang, who were temporarily recuperated, together with the Wang family, had to face the "fishing boat war drum" again. It was a scene of war and chaos filled with ruins and broken walls and smoke, and Wang Fuzhi couldn't help but sigh that "shame and shame are floating in a shadow."
It was in this year that Wang Fuzhi, with his home as dilapidated as the world, and Wang Yaping under the Wang Ya Mountain, completed the final cutting, and he bid farewell to the city and settled down at the deserted Stone Boat Mountain on the west bank of the Xiangshui River, and the self-built Xiangxi Caotang was a hundred miles away from his hometown.
Wang Zhichun, who was then the governor of the E's domain, what would he himself say about this? Consulting his "Chronicle of Funayama", we get the following information: "On the fourth day of the first month of November, Tao Ru died, and there were five in the twentieth year. Burial of King Yashan. Curiously, he did not say where "Wang YaShan" was. The former said that there was only "Wang Yaping", and this saying only had "Wang Ya Mountain", which was confused.
Homework still has to be done carefully, and the kung fu pays off!
In the "Collected Works of Jiang Zhai", we can find such a character, a waiter in the late Ming Dynasty who was called "Liu Gongmingyu" by Wang Fuzhi, who was a contemporary of Wang Fuzhi and once wrote the "Epitaph" for Wang Fuzhi's wife Tao Ruren. It reads as follows: "The widow was born on the eighteenth day of the twelfth month of the Apocalypse, and died on the fourth day of the first month of the first month of the shunzhi dynasty. Ten years after the return of the king. In the twentieth year of the fifth year, he was buried in the county's Zero Spring Township King Yashan, The Right of the Ancestors, shougen toe Kun. The second son, do not take medicine, do not take medicine, and are young. ’”
This passage seemed to be a commentary on Wang Zhichun's above remarks. Wang Ya Mountain, in Zero Spring Township.
Where is Zero Spring Township?
Hengyang County at the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty did not have a county, hengyang and hengnan belonged to the same county, and it was the same city as Hengzhou Prefecture. Guncheng, built on the Xiangshui River, a main street, runs out of the city from south to north, and is now Zhongshan Road. Bounded by the main street, there are two townships in the east and west, and a township on the east bank of the river close to the city is called "Zero Spring Township"; if zero spring township goes further east, it is Hengyang Township. "Wanli Hengzhou Fu Zhi": "Hengyang County..., East, Zero Spring Township, Twenty Miles; Hengyang Township, Eighty Miles." "Kangxi Hengzhou Fu Zhi": "Hengyang County, East, Zero Spring Township, Yidu, go to the city of ten miles." ”
Who is "Liu Gongming encounter"?
Wang Fuzhi's own "Genealogy" inscription: "(Tao Ruren Epitaph)' Written by Mr. Liu Huansong. Note: 'Secret Ming Encounter, Shu People.' ’”
Wang Zhichun's "Chuanshan Gong Annals" tells us that the third year of Shunzhi is the first year of Tang Ming Wang Longwu. Huguang Province, at that time, was still under the jurisdiction of the Southern Ming regime. The Huguang Township Examination held by the Southern Ming Court was opened in Hengyang. In this regard, the "Chuanshan Gong Annals" has the following description: "In September, Liu Gongming of the main trial work department encountered the appointment of mo mu as a gong, and had been granted a engraving, and the Wuyi Gong did not allow the incident, and the gong was stopped. ”
Obviously, Liu Mingyu, a waiter in the Ministry of Works, as the chief examiner of the current period, had sat in Hengyang for a long time and formed a deep friendship with the Wang family.
The location of the burial place of the Tao Ru people is also worthy of our attention, which is "Shou Gong Toe Kun". What does that mean? It is "head to the northeast, feet to the southwest". This orientation coincides with the almost vertical shape of the Xiangshui River at the southern tip of Dongzhou Island, and coincides with the geographical status of the southeast-to-northwest flow of the Xiang river in this section.
Can we think of it this way: The "Wang Ya Mountain" mentioned by Wang Zhichun and Liu Mingyu, if so, then this mountain called Wang Ya Mountain is located in Zero Spring Township.
Wang Fuzhi was born in the family of the official eunuchs of the hereditary Wuxun, the back mountain of the official eunuch Wang's family, which was called "Wang Ya Mountain" by the villagers; the square field in front of the Wang Family House was called "Wang Ya Ping" by the villagers, which was logical.
Wang Fuzhi's eighth grandson Wang Zhichun said: "Wang Yaping, under the Yan peak south of Hengzhou City", and also said: "Tao Ruren was buried in Wang Ya Mountain"; Liu Mingyu, a contemporary friend of Wang Fuzhi," wrote an "Epitaph" for his deceased wife, saying that "Wang Yaping is under Wang Ya Mountain in Zero Spring Township on the east bank of Xiangshui".
Therefore, in front of the reader, there are two Wang Ya Ping, plus a Wang Ya Mountain.
Second, look for Wang Ya Mountain outside the south gate of the city
What if we also found a back mountain, also called "Wang Ya Mountain", for Wang YaPing at the foot of Yanfeng Peak outside the south gate of the city? This is what some people expect.
Looking through the Hengyang Fangzhi books compiled by contemporary people, no matter what they say, it is difficult to form ironclad evidence. Therefore, we traced and searched, and the earliest known "Hengzhou Fuzhi" was during the Ming Jiajing period. But the most worthy of consultation is the complete fifteen-volume version written by the Ming Dynasty "Wu Rang" and others, and published in the twenty-first year of the Ming Wanli Calendar.
In the two "Fu Zhi", neither the "Wang Ya Mountain" at the south gate is found, and certainly there is no "Wang Ya Ping". However, there is a passage in the Wanli Hengzhou Fuzhi that caught my attention, and the chapter of the book "Chengchi" has the following description: "... Over the years, the houses were mixed, the dust soil accumulated, and the waterways were silted up. In the south gate, the people are even more, every rain gathers, the flat land becomes a river, and the traffic is particularly bitter. The speaker said: 'The blood does not flow, and the atmosphere is bad.' And the land of the city, the day to see the collapse, the east section of the South Gate Bridge, almost lost the old site, such as the danger? ”
I firmly want to defend the conclusion that "Wang Fu's birthplace, Wang Yaping, is under the Yan peak at the south gate", but the above passage fundamentally shattered my confidence.
Regaining our broken faith, putting this passage on hold for the time being, we continue to look for more evidence to preserve what it says.
Between the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty and tongzhi, all the historical materials that I can muster have not seen Wang Yaping; after that, on a complete map of Hengyang City during the Qing Tongzhi period, it was suddenly printed with "Wang Yaping". Wang Yaping is outside the south gate, located in the first horizontal street on the east side of the main street, the urban map is Zhulin Lane, Zhulin Lane and the second horizontal street, curved into a three-fold camel alley, forming a siege, the block is marked as Wang Yaping;
In the "Chronicle of Xuantong Hengyang County", the earliest urban map made in modern China in grids appears. This map, which was produced in the first year of Xuantong, is more than thirty years later than the Tongzhi edition of the urban area map. Surprisingly, in the same position, only Zhulin Lane and Camel Lane are marked, and "Wang Yaping" played "Hide and Hide" with us;
In preparation for the total invasion of China, the Japanese drew up an extra detailed map of the city of Hengyang in the thirteenth year of Showa (1938). On this map, "Wang Yaping" quietly appeared again, but the location changed, surrounded by Camel Alley, The Big Wharf Street and the Main Street;
In 1947, the Republic of China published a map of Hengyang City, "Wang Yaping", very naughtily, once again disappeared.
Confused!
Let's think differently, shall we? Wang Yaping may never have been an officially recognized street, or the name of the alley. However, the citizens habitually call this place Wang Yaping, similar to the supplementary geographical description, landmark building.
Open the Qianlong edition of the Qingqianlong edition of "Qingquan County Chronicle", in the "Ying Jianzhi. In the chapter of "Streets and Alleys", there are the following texts: "Outside the Street, East, Divided Alleys Four, Zhuyan Alley, Camel Alley, Courtyard Pond Alley, Yijiaping Alley." Among them, the "Camel Alley" is accompanied by a small note on the upper lift: "Inside there is the former residence of king Sikong zhao of the Ming Dynasty, now known as 'Wang Yaping Out of the River Street'." "Seems to corroborate my view.
In the camel alley, a big man appeared, called Wang Sikong Zhao. "Sikong" was one of the highest-ranking central government officials in the Zhou Dynasty and was an official who controlled water. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, there was no such official title, and before Wang Zhao became the Shangshu of the Ministry of Works, he was a waiter in charge of the Ministry of Water, and he was honored as Wang Sikong, which was definitely a sincere praise from the people of his hometown for the high-ranking officials of Hengyang. However, when it comes to "old residence", there is exquisiteness, "house" and "ya", the two are far apart, it seems to be explainable, and it may be that before Wang Zhao's debut, he went to the county government to study, because of the strangeness of people and places, and because of financial reasons, he had to live temporarily in this alley. The so-called "camel alleys", the mixed houses are all foot porters and the like, the alleys are narrow, the crowds are dense, and camels and mules and horses are full of large livestock and fish, which is really not suitable for people to live. As a side alley of the big wharf cross street, Camel Lane, in our Hengyang dialect, "Quliba Turn" (note, not the mistake of "seven miles and eight turns", Hengyang native dialect similar usage, and "QiliBa Black". ）。 The "Big Wharf Horizontal Street" leads directly to the big wharf by the river, which is the largest logistics distribution center that has ever existed in Hengyang City. The docks are densely populated and densely populated. Who would settle in such a place?
We may be able to draw conclusions: the place called "Wang Yaping" at the southern gate of the city has really existed; "Wang Yaping" is not the officially recognized name of the alley in the street; "Wang Yaping" is named after the former residence of Ming Wang Sikong; hengyang has only one Wang Ya Mountain, on the east bank of the Xiang River, on the other side of the southern end of Dongzhou Island; and Wang Yaping in the south of the city is not related to Wang Ya Mountain in Zero Spring Township.
III. In which wang yaping was Wang Fuzhi born?
In which wang yaping was Wang Fuzhi born? The academics remained silent on this, but there were incomparably determined people in the community, especially the official scholars, who cut through the iron, saying that Wang Fu's ancestor Zhi Heng lived in the residence of Wang Zhao, who was once the attendant of the Ming Ministry, and the mansion was located in Wang Yaping on the side of Camel Lane in the south of the city.
Perhaps, is there really a big drama of "things are not people"?
It must be very interesting.
With the learned people in the community, we wrote the screenplay together.
To write this script, we must first find out the origin of the two families, and we will check the genealogy of the two families.
Wang Fuzhi's family, belonging to the "Hengyang Wang Clan", is from Yangzhou and belongs to the "Hanjiang Wang Clan"; Wang Zhao, on the other hand, belongs to the "Yuxi Wang Clan", which is descended from the "Langya Wang Clan", far away in Shandong. The two Wang's wind horses and cattle are not in harmony.
Yuxi Wang Clan Ancestral Hall in Lijiang Town, Hengnan County
Wang Zhao was born in the twelfth year of Ming Yongle (1414) in Changping Township, Hengyang County (present-day Dayu Village, Lijiang Town, Hengnan County), more than one hundred and twenty miles from the city pool of Hengzhou County. One thing is more strange, I rushed to the Yuxi Wang Clan Ancestral Hall in Lijiang Town, Hengnan County. The ancestral hall is large in scale, but it is not seen that the shrine enshrines the throne tablet. The ancestor of the ancestral hall was Wang Wanzhuang, who served as the commander of Shaoyang County in Huguang Baoqing Province in the fourth year of Song Zhuohua (993). The location of the Wang Ancestral Hall is the place specially selected as the place of retirement after it has been told to be old, and the Yuxi Wang Clan is the Wang Clan that has been formed over time. However, whether it is the introduction in the zhishu or the relevant entries in the online search engine, the two, namely Wang Wanzhuang, the originator of the Yuxi Wang clan, and Wang Zhao, the servant of the Ministry of Works, do not seem to be intrinsically linked, although they are both from the big fishing village of Lijiang Town. Wang Zhao's background in life cannot be found, but it seems that he is not from the yuxi Wang clan, but relies entirely on personal struggle. Wang Zhao's appointment as a servant of the Ministry of Works was already around the tenth year of Chenghua (1474); he himself had no experience in Heng. Although we can think that it is not impossible for Wang Zhao, the attendant of the Ministry of Works, to build a mansion in Hengcheng for his family and for future convenience, we conclude that the ancestor of Wang Fu's family, Qianheng, completed his settlement on top of the old mansion of Wang Zhao's residence, which is too unreliable.
The saying that "things are not human" has no reason! Wang Fu's ancestors were honored and honored, and they were in the same era as Wang Zhaoxianda and the imperial court. Wang Fuzhi himself was indeed born about 180 years after Wang Zhao, but when his ancestors settled in Hengyang, it was long before Wang Zhao came to prominence, in 1402, the first year of Yongle.
Let's take a closer look at Wang Fuzhi's family lineage: Wang Fuzhi's family, the ancestor traced back through the "Family Tree", is a person named Wang Zhongyi, who is a member of the Weiyang Gao Postal Service. Wang Zhongyi originally followed the Ming Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang across the river to fight, pacified the world and made meritorious contributions, and was awarded the title of Marquis of Qianhu. King Zhongyi of Wuxun had a son named Wang Cheng. Wang Cheng, in the early years of Ming Chengzu Zhu Di Yongle, was promoted to Hengzhou Wei Commander Tongzhi and Prefecture Wei Commander Tongzhi with the merits of his father Yi Dai, and the "Prefecture Guard Commander" could also be similar to the commander of the present military sub-district, and "Tongzhi" indicated that his rank was equivalent to that of the prefect.
The Hanjiang Wang clan was a hereditary Wuxun who was enfeoffed in Hengyang Township, the capital of Hengzhou; the "Yuxi Wang Clan" relied on personal struggles to ascend to the throne and became officials in other townships. In the eyes of the small people of Hengzhou, one is a strong dragon and the other is a ground snake. For this reason, the credibility of the ancestors of the hereditary prominent clan, Wang Yaping, the former residence of Wang Yaping, who was born late after the migration of the guests, is very suspicious.
In fact, The King Yaping of the "Mansion" of the Wang Fu's House existed for sixty years before the King Yaping of the "Former Residence" of the Wang Zhao. Qiang said that Wang Fu's ancestors lived in Wang Zhao's house and there was something wrong with it. The so-called one house and one ping, this king YaPing, not the other king Yaping.
In order to continue this play, we also have to review the "Wanli Hengzhou Fuzhi. The passage from the City: "... Over the years, the houses were mixed, the dust soil accumulated, and the waterways were silted up. In the south gate, the people are even more, every rain gathers, the flat land becomes a river, and the traffic is particularly bitter. ”
Wang Fuzhi was born in the forty-seventh year of the Wanli Calendar, and his childhood family was well-off, a thousand households, a large mansion, a thousand acres of good land, and a private school; the Tao family that married into the Wang family was also known as "a thousand marquises, with a huge amount of money". The head of the rich family, the dynasty, can put the birthplace of the most beloved son, Wang Fuzhi, into such a harsh environment?
Let you deepen your impression of the harsh environment at the south gate of Hengcheng. The "City Pool" also says: "Heng County's trenches used to be called deep and wide, but are they even silted up today?" In the area around the South Gate, the residents are mixed, the gray soil is piled up, gradually becoming a high hill, extending to the southwest, all shallow passes, only Si Liu, set up dangers and safety? "Obediently, the area around the South Gate is simply a garbage dump, with sewage flowing and stretching for miles along the trenches, and with the smell of the large cattle in the camel alleys, the stench is straight into the sky.
This scene is frozen in the twenty-first year of the Ming Dynasty. If Lord Wang Sikong really had a mansion here, his descendants would not be able to withdraw the scene, and the Dongzhou where Wang Fu's hometown and Zu Mo were located were the place where peach blossoms bloomed and the best place for the geese to fall from Pinghu Lake. At the same time, the Wang Fu Family, the first three generations before he chased his dreams, completed the role transformation of the Wuxun Hao clan to the Shuxiang family. The house is quiet and noisy, which is inconsistent with the elegance and integrity of the reader's home. The great gentleman, who flaunted the confucian disciples, would put him in a place like the camel alley, and I would not believe it!
Therefore, I finally gave up my support for the thesis that "Wang Fuzhi was born in Wang Yaping at the South Gate", and instead believed that Wang Fuzhi's birthplace was in Dongzhou, and he was born in Wang Yaping of the Hengyang Wang clan on the east bank of Dongzhou Island.
After many round-trip examinations, the specific location of Wang Fuzhi's birthplace can be used as follows: Zhuhui District, Hengyang City, Hunan Province, on the east bank of Xiangshui on Dongzhou Island, in the present-day Suzhou Bay Community, on the riverside water tower of Hengyang City's Rolling Mill, a former name was Xiaoqiuxia of ShamaoShan. To use the reference of the time in the Fu Zhi: "Zero Spring Township, Hengyang County, hengzhou capital of Minghu Guang Province, Wang Yaping's ancestral house under Wang Ya Mountain.".
Wang Zhichun, the governor of the Efan Dynasty, ri li wanji, in his Wuhan domain, secretly wrote the "Chronicle of the Duke of Chuanshan", Zhang Guan, Li Dai Wang Yaping, it is not impossible.
In the case of a family, mistakes are inevitable.
