Also known as Dafushanren), intelligent since childhood, eight years old Nengwen, was a famous literati of the Ming Dynasty, known as the Four Masters of the Ming Dynasty literary circle, one of the "first seven sons", and Li Mengyang and called the leader of the literary world.

In the fifteenth year of Koji (1502), he was appointed a scholar and served in the cabinet. At the beginning of Zhengde, the eunuch Liu Jin abused his power, and He Jingming returned from illness. Liu Jinjie, the official reinstated. The official went to Shaanxi to study as a deputy envoy. In the eighteenth year of Zhengde of the Ming Dynasty (1521), He Jingming resigned due to illness and returned to his hometown, where he died of illness 6 days later at the age of 39.

Legend has it that in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, there was a teacher surnamed He in Fujian who traveled the country to find a feng shui treasure for himself to bury. From Fujian and Hubei to The Village of Yitang in Xinyang (the history records that He Jingming's ancestral home was Hubei).
Mr. He Lao went all the way north, and he looked at the land of Dafu Mountain in the northwest of Xinyang. There is an old landlord in the hall, there are several wives, a group of daughters, but there is only one man under the knee, and the brain is not enough, the old landlord has invited many private school gentlemen to this son, and they are all angry with his stupid son. This matter has become a heart disease of the old landlord, and it is difficult for the sad fool to inherit the family business. At this time, I heard that there was a mr. teaching, and the old landlord was overjoyed, so he asked the housekeeper to invite Mr. He to his home to eat and drink, and when the wine was hot, the old landlord proposed, please Ask Mr. He to bring my son, not to mention how clever it is, you can keep an account, and half of my family property will be distributed to you. Old Mr. He thought about agreeing to it, but made two requests. The old landlord happily quickly agreed: "You say you say, don't say it's two, that is, twenty or two hundred, I can promise you." Mr. He said: "First, I must manage to eat and live", and second, I choose a place for myself, and I will bury it there after I die. When the old landlord heard what the conditions were, he immediately invited the central guarantor to sign and pledge, and gave him a piece of land selected by Mr. He.

Mr. He Lao began to teach the landlord this stupid son. It was very magical, and it didn't take long for Mr. He to really bring out that stupid boy. The old landlord died with a smile on his face. Soon, Mr. He Lao also left, and the son of the old landlord was very affectionate, and funded Mr. He to bury him thickly, and installed a large amount of gold and silver jewelry in the underground burial chamber to thank Master En. In addition to the two-story burial chamber dug underground, a special sacrifice house was built on the ground, the Temple, from which the name of the village was derived.
The result really lived up to Mr. He Lao's high hopes, and Mr. He Lao's two sons were indeed out of the way. The eldest son, He Jingshao, and the second son, He Jingming, both later became Hanlin scholars of the Ming Dynasty, one discipline and two Hanlin, becoming the pride of the Xinyang people. Later, the He family produced the literary leader He Jingming, and the reputation of the Hall was greatly enhanced, and the name of the He Family was named He Jia YiTang.
It is also said that the ancestral residence of Feng Hao (1452-1506) also had a hall, or Feng Ho's tombstone could be struck, so it was also called Feng Jia Xiang Tang or Feng Jia Xiang Tang a long time ago.
