He didn't know Chen Jinnan in his lifetime, but if there really was Chen Jinnan in history, his heaven and earth would almost kill the Emei Sect

He didn't know Chen Jinnan in his life, and even if he was called a hero, he was in vain.

Chen Jinnan, according to legend, was the founding ancestor of a super society in the Qing Dynasty, the Heaven and Earth Society (Hongmen), and the leading elder brother. Now everyone knows Chen Jinnan, most of them are still Mr. TOEFL Jin Yong's novel "Deer DingJi". However, people who are familiar with Chen Jinnan from the novel are not as good as those who come up from the movie version of "Deer Ding".

Let's see how Zhou Xingchi described Chen Jinnan in the movie "Deer Ding":

"The so-called ordinary life did not see Chen Jinnan, so he called the hero in vain. He was eight feet tall and had a waist circumference of eight feet. Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Bodhisattva shook his head in fear of the Thunderbolt Golden Light Thunder palm, within a hundred miles, whether it was people, animals, shrimps and crabs, fleas, all turned into fly ash! He's a man whose whereabouts are uncertain and untraceable, but I've seen him halfway down the street..."

Eight feet tall, eight feet waist! This figure is square!

In fact, Chen Jinnan is not a fictional character of Mr. Jin Yong, but a person in history, he is Chen Yonghua, the chief producer of Dongning under Daming Zheng Chenggong.

Chen Yonghua, a man of humanities and martial arts, has been famous in his youth, and was favored by Zheng Chenggong in his early twenties, and has since been appointed to assist Zheng Chenggong's successor, Zheng Jing.

In the thirteenth year of the Qing Kangxi Dynasty (1674 AD), the "Rebellion of San Francisco" starring Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi, was grandly released, and at the invitation of Mr. Geng Jingzhong, who co-starred, Zheng Jing led a large army to land from the sea and declare war on the Qing Dynasty.

Zheng Jing's son Zheng Kezang supervised the country, and Chen Yonghua assisted his son-in-law Zheng Kezang in overseeing Taiwan's administrative affairs. Feng Xifan (hmmm, this person also has wonderful performances in novels and movies), Liu Guoxuan is very jealous of Chen Yonghua, so he tries to slander and exclude him.

In March of the nineteenth year of the Kangxi Dynasty (1680 AD), Chen Yonghua voluntarily asked to be relieved of his military powers, but because of his anxiety, he died of illness in Taiwan that year.

Bad guy Feng Xifan

Unfortunately, in reality, Chen Yonghua did not have a good apprentice Wei Xiaobao, so there was no miracle happening, since there was no opportunity to follow Lu Dinggong to get away with the rivers and lakes, so it could only be depressed, making people sigh involuntarily.

As Mr. Jin Yong described, the historical Chen Yonghua was indeed "anti-Qing and restoration", and it is said that the "Five Ancestors" of the Heaven and Earth Society, Fang Dahong, Hu Dedi, Ma Chaoxing, Cai Dezhong, and Li Shikai, were once generals who followed Shi Kefa to resist the Qing forces. After Shi Kefa's heroic sacrifice, the "Five Ancestors" turned to Zheng Chenggong, recruited anti-Qing righteous soldiers, and founded the Heaven and Earth Society (Hongmen), with Chen Yonghua (pseudonym Chen Jinnan) as the general military division.

When Chen Jinnan was in Hubei, he used to live in the "White Crane Cave" south of Xiangyang City, so he was also called "White Crane Daoist", and in the name of preaching, he traveled around the world, contacted benevolent and righteous people, and jointly planned to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty. I don't know how many people have the soles of their feet engraved with words because of this, the left foot is "Qingming", the right foot is "repeated"...

Having said so many old things about the Heaven and Earth Society, what does it have to do with the Emei Sect?

Don't say, there really is.

In a paper entitled "The Origin of Sichuan Martial Arts and the Heaven and Earth Society", it is written that "it is no accident that in the martial arts that are circulating in the Sichuan region today, that is, the so-called 'Emei Sect' or the local martial arts of Sichuan, there are many legends involving imperial criminals, Qin criminals, refuges, refuges, and assassinations of Yongzheng. Obviously, it shows that its members are often wanted and hunted down for anti-Qing and restoration activities, and they are closely related to Sichuan martial arts. ”

Mount Emei has been far away in Bashu since ancient times, and it is partial to the southwest of An'an, not only the supreme masters such as Jieyu and Ge You live here, but also the last road Haojie who has taken refuge and avoided disasters in the mountains for various reasons, and there has been no shortage of people in successive dynasties. In the last year of the Qing Dynasty, Master Zhanran, who had been the secretary (secretary) of Shi Dakai, the wing king of the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom, before becoming a monk, fled into Mount Emei after the defeat of the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom soldiers, which was a typical avoidance.

In fact, it is precisely because of the many celebrities and gaoshi and the many hidden Haojie that the Emei school has integrated the three schools of Interpretation, Confucianism and Taoism, and absorbed a large number of martial arts school elements from outside Sichuan.

However, as the chief helmsman of the Heaven and Earth Society in novels and movies, Chen Jinnan, who is not the first and top three in martial arts, is actually a literati. He was the son of Chen Ding, a prominent figure in the late Ming Dynasty, and an advocate of education in Taiwan. He created a relatively complete education system from top to bottom, combining education with the selection of talents, and vigorously promoted the Ming Dynasty's imperial examination system, while delineating administrative regions, promoting mutual protection and opening up trade channels, and when he died of illness in 1680, his nickname was also "Wen", known as "Wenzheng".

In the thirteenth year of the Qing Kangxi Dynasty (1674), because Wu Sangui raised an army, the Qing court had no time to move east, and Zheng Jing, the son of Zheng Chenggong, and Geng Jingzhong, the son of the state surnamed Zheng Chenggong, joined forces to cut down the Qing Dynasty, Zheng Kezang supervised the country, and Chen Yonghua stayed in Taiwan to assist him with the General System of Dongning. However, due to Zheng Jing's limited military level, he quickly defeated Taiwan, and Chen Yonghua was worried about this. In June of the nineteenth year of the Kangxi Dynasty (1680), Feng Xifan and Liu Guoxuan, important ministers of the Zheng dynasty, joined forces to exclude Chen Yonghua, and Feng Xifan also tricked Chen into resigning from the posts of general and Yongwei, causing him to withdraw from the center of power. A month later, Chen yong fell ill and died.

In order to commemorate Chen Yonghua, later generations renamed the Tainan Cisheng Palace, which is now located near the Confucius Temple in Tainan City, to Yonghua Palace, where the idol of Chen Yonghua was enshrined.

A generation of strange people, still desirable.
