Huangmei Guyi produced a clean official
Huangmei Muyushan Tao Gong Temple
Guyi Huangmei, at the eastern end of Hubei, adjacent to Anhui and Gansu, the mountains are in Dabie, and the water flows into the Yangtze River. There were ancestors living in the ancient honghuang, and the pebbles excavated in Jiaodun in the territory have a history of at least 6,000 years, and are known as "the first dragon in the Yangtze River Basin". Here, the three generations of Tang Yu belonged to Yangzhou, the Spring and Autumn Warring States belonged to Chu, and the Qin Dynasty was under the jurisdiction of Jiujiang County. In the early Han Dynasty, the county was named Xunyang; during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, it was successively renamed Yongxing and Xincai; in the eighteenth year of the Sui Kai Emperor (598), it was named Huangmei because of the Huangmei Mountain and Huangmei Water in the territory.
From this small ancient land, there have been many clean officials and honest officials, who are honest and self-disciplined, have high aspirations, serve one party, benefit the people, leave good stories, and pass through the ages.
The virtuous mother godson is a family style
The spring breeze blows, and the willows cling to each other.
Out of the east of the county, along the east bank of the county river for more than ten miles to the south, it will meet the Muyu Mountain head-on.
Si is a small mountain, shaped like a wooden fish. Stepping on the tree-lined path, climbing to the top of the mountain, you will see a ancestral temple, which is the "Tao Gong Temple" dedicated to the famous General Tao Kan of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
The "Jin Shu Tao Kan Biography" records: "Tao Kan, zi shi xing, ben Poyang people also." Wu Ping, the search for the Yang of the Lujiang River. This means that Tao Kan was originally from Poyang County, and after the State of Wu was pacified by the Western Jin Dynasty, Tao Kan's family moved to Xunyang (present-day Huangmei) in Lujiang County.
Tao Kan lost his father at an early age and his family was poor, so Tao's mother used textiles to make a living and adopt her son for Tao Kan to study. Tao Mu Zhanshi is a famous virtuous mother in history, she taught her strict family, taught her son to study in The Yin, made meritorious achievements, and also cultivated her son with the virtue of loyalty and diligence.
One day, Xiao Tao Kan squatted on the ground and watched his mother weave cloth. Tao Mu stopped the loom and told him the truth that "time is like an arrow, and the sun and moon are like shuttles". Tao Mu pointed to the shuttle in her hand and said to her son: Son, day, just like this weaving shuttle, it flies very fast. If you don't care about reading, the days pass day by day, but it's a pity? Xiao Tao Kan understood the truth of cherishing time, and from then on, he studied hard and grew into a material.
Mother Tao not only taught her son to study well and make meritorious achievements, but also reminded her son diligently when he became an official.
Tao Kan worked as a fish liang official in Xunyang County, and was a petty official in charge of river and fishery management. In the meantime, Tao Kan sent someone to bring his mother a jar of pickled fish. When Tao Mu saw this, she asked, "Where did this come from?" The visitor replied, "It belongs to the government." Mother Tao immediately sealed the pickled fish, returned it to the messenger, and asked the visitor to carry a letter to Tao Kan: "As an official, you gave me public things, which is not only useless, but also increases my sorrow!" ”
That year, Fan Kui, a filial piety in Poyang, came to visit Tao Kan, and there were no good dishes for hospitality in a hurry. There was no spare money at home, and Tao Kan was quite embarrassed. In a hurry, Tao Mu quietly cut off the long hair on her head, made two wig rolls, and asked Tao Kan to get the market for wine dishes; the guests and hosts drank the wine freely, which was very enjoyable. Fan Kui appreciated Tao Kanxianliang and tried his best to recommend him to Lujiang Taishou Zhang Kui, who promoted Tao Kan to be the county governor and zongyang county order.
Before Tao Kan went to office, his mother repeatedly said goodbye and handed him a bag and told him to open it when he arrived. When he reached his destination, Tao Kan opened it and saw that the bag contained a piece of dirt, an earthen bowl, and a white earthen cloth. Tao Kan pondered for a long time, and finally realized his mother's good intentions: a piece of dirt is to teach him to always remember his hometown and forget his ancestors; an earthen bowl is to teach him not to covet glory and wealth, to maintain a hard and simple nature; a white soil cloth, but also to teach him to be an official to be compassionate to the people, honest and self-respecting, innocent, and never forget the original.
After the "Rebellion of the Eight Kings", Tao Kan came to the fore, made outstanding achievements in battle, and had a smooth career. Later, Tao Kanguan worshiped the Western General and the Jingzhou Assassin History, and became a military and political minister. He sat solemnly and upright on weekdays, and everything in the military and the government was full of confusion and did not neglect. Someone wrote a letter, replied in person; ushered in, orderly. He often admonished his subordinates: "He who is a great sage of Yu is to spare the yin, but as for the people, he should cherish the yin." "His diligence and rigor are like his mother's night weaving as a child.
Throughout his life, Tao Kan kept in mind his mother's teachings and warned his children and grandchildren not to dishonor the style. Tao Yuanming was the great-grandson of Tao Kan, and although his official position was inferior to that of his ancestors, Qing Cao had made generations look up to him. When he was appointed as the commander of Pengze County, Tao Yuanming tried to remove the bad rules and advocated cultivating "raising incorruptible fields", and resigned in anger because he was dissatisfied with the arrogance of the governor and the hint of bribery. "Don't bend your waist for five buckets of rice", it is difficult for ordinary officials to do it.
Huangmei Ziyun Mountain Nobu Garden
The same list of jinshi qing as promised
The sun was shining brightly and steaming.
Starting from Kuzhu Township in the north of the city, follow the winding mountain road and enter the Ziyun Mountain Mountain Resort - Nobu Garden. In the meantime, the peaks are green, the clouds are misty, and the air is fresh. Longquan splits down the mountain, and the scenery of green bamboo in the forest is wonderful. This is the place where the late Ming official Wang Ke was told to return to his hometown, and the name of the Nuobu Garden was given to him.
Speaking of Wang Kefu, Liaozhai readers may have an impression of him. Pu Songling wrote in "Liaozhai Zhiyi Wang Keshou": "Wang Ke of Huangmei County, Huguang, can bear it, and can remember three lives." "Legend has it that he can remember the experience of the first three lives, so he talks about the story of fasting, and the aunt listens to it. However, Wang Kefu was intelligent from an early age, diligent and studious, and loved the people for the sake of officials, which is true.
Wang Kefu (王可受), literally "Virtual", was born in the House of Huangmei Shuxiang, and was a jinshi and the first in the eighth year of the Ming Dynasty (1580). He was initially appointed as the head of Jinhua Zhi County, the chief of the Xuansheng Ceremony Department, and successively served as a member of the Foreign Lang and Lang Zhong, the prefect of Ji'an in Jiangxi, the deputy envoy of Shanxi Tixue, the right suffragist of Jiangxi, the envoy of Shandong According to Cha, the envoy of Shaanxi Right Cloth, the governor of Shuntianfu, the inspector of Datong, the shilang of the military department, and the governor of Jiliao. In the forty-eighth year of the Wanli Calendar (1620), he died of illness and was given the shangshu of the military department.
Wang Ke has been an official for forty years, observing ethics and self-discipline, and has an outstanding political reputation. In the six years of Ren Ji'an's prefect, Wang Ke took the people to sympathize with the people, cracked down on the strong and powerful, helped the poor and the poor, promoted the advantages and eliminated the disadvantages, rebuilt the long-damaged Bailuzhou Academy, and hired Mingru to enter the academy to give lectures. He has a clean wind in his sleeves, loves the people like a son, and is deeply loved by the people of Ji'an. Many years after leaving office, the locals still remember him and build an altar on the golden peak of the main peak of Wugong Mountain, the "Wang Xian Altar", to commemorate the Wang Prefect of the Immortal Wind Dao Bone.
In the thirty-eighth year of the Wanli Calendar (1610), the imperial court was a "great planning foreign official", and Wang Ke, then the right envoy of Shaanxi Province, was subjected to "clean and honest and different". According to the results of the examination, the official Shangshu Sun Piyang played a game to the imperial court to play Wang Keshou, Wang Zuo, Zhang Kai and twenty other honest officials. Wang Ke was ranked first and was promoted and reused.
Shi Kunyu and Wang Kesheng are both fellow townsmen and fellow soldiers. Not only that, Wang Kesheng also studied under Shi Kunyu. The two are the same list of soldiers, with similar careers and the same service.
In the nineteenth year of the Wanli Calendar (1591), Shi Kunyu was transferred to the prefect of Suzhou. At that time, the head of the cabinet, Shen Shixing, was a Suzhou native, and his relatives and children were bullying others and committing crimes; local officials were intimidated by Shen Shi's power, turned a deaf ear, and gave up. Soon after Shi Kunyu arrived in office, he ordered the arrest of these suspects and reported their crimes to Shi Xing. Inspector Li Lai of Jiangsu, in order to curry favor with Shen Shixing, framed Shi Kunyu and sent him to prison.
Yuan Keli, a young Suzhou governor, stood up and defended Shi Kunyu. Tang Xianzu (then the head of the priesthood of the Nanjing Rebbe Ancestral Hall) submitted the "On the Auxiliary Minister Kechen Shu" to Emperor Shenzong, and sternly impeached the first auxiliary Shen Shixing and the Kechen Yang Wenju and Hu Runing. Shi Kunyu was honest and honest, without any stains, and through Yuan Keli and others, his grievances were quickly revealed. Yuan Keli read the verdict aloud, "Reading the Fa is more and more powerful", Li Lai listened with shame and embarrassment, had nowhere to hide, and finally asked himself to resign and leave. Shin also resigned at the same time.
A prefect and a governor who actually caused the inspector and the first assistant to leave their posts together can be said to be a legend of justice.
After Shen Shixing resigned, he succeeded wang Xijue, who was also a native of Suzhou. Shi Kunyu did not deliberately curry favor with him, nor did he allow his relatives to act arbitrarily. He was just and upright, in a rich and prosperous place, clean and self-righteous, did not seek selfish interests, had outstanding political achievements, and had a clean reputation. Although he later held a higher position, he was the most prominent official in Suzhou, and was then known as "Shi Suzhou". His collection of essays is called "Shi Suzhou Collection", and Tang Xianzu and Dong Qichang wrote the preface.
Huangmeishui countryside new
Breeze has a history of family history
The blue waves are rippling and the lotus flowers are fragrant.
Located in the southeast of the county town, Dayuan Lake is connected to Longgan Lake and is rich in lotus roots, fish and shrimp. Since ancient times, the people on the lakeside have mostly made a living from fishing, "in the early morning the boats go to cast nets, and at night they come back to fill the warehouses." "In the first month of the thirty-second year of Qianlong (1767), a fisherman was happy to have the eldest son, this child later explored the flowers in the first year of Jiaqing (1796) in high school, and his name was Shuai Chengying.
Shuai Tanhua started from a high starting point, and was appointed to the Hanlin Academy, successively serving as the Guozi Supervisor of Wine, Guangxi and Shandong Xuezheng, the Secretary of the Taibu Temple, the Deputy Capital Yushi and the Ceremonial Department, the Ministry of Works, the Punishment Department, and the Servant of the Bureaucracy. During this period, he served as the minister of Qincha for many times, responsible for investigating and handling the corruption cases of Fuhai, the governor of Shanxi Yanping Province, And Xianfu, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, and others, and examining and correcting the unjust case of Xu Wenxuan, a rich man in Shandong.
At the end of the twenty-fifth year of Jiaqing (1820), Shuai Chengying was appointed as the governor of Zhejiang. The "Draft History of the Qing Dynasty, The Biography of Shuai Chengying" commented: "Chengying ruled Zhejiang for several years and wrote with honesty and diligence. "In addition to being honest and diligent, he has made great achievements in salt administration, water conservancy, and water transportation. There had been flooding in the three counties of Hangjiahu Lake, and he asked for the grain to be retained as a relief, exempted from the tax on rice sellers, and properly resettled the victims, and no one was displaced. He presided over the dredging of the West Lake, the construction of the sea salt stone pond, and the effective solution of the flood problem.
In the fourth year of Daoguang (1824), due to the death of his mother, Shuai Chengying Ding returned home. There were 80,000 taels of surplus belonging to the funds under the governor's name, and the subordinate officials told him that according to the past practice, this silver could be withdrawn from the storehouse and belonged to him personally. Shuai Chengying resolutely thanked him, "What am I going to do with all this silver?" Leave it behind, half for dredging lakes, and half for the poor and widows and lonely. ”
Shuai Chengying is extremely incorruptible, like a lotus flower in his hometown lake, which comes out of the mud without staining. The Qing Dynasty Huang Junzai's "Seven Inks of the Golden Kettle" records: "When chengying the official Jingshi, when there is a meeting of literature and wine, those who call for good people will not go." If they do not know, they will sit in the seat and run away; those who are with the great powers will not care. At that time, the Beijing officials liked the wind and flowers and snow, and often feasted with Youling, drank flower wine, said yellow strips, and had a lot of fun; Shuai Chengying did not go with the flow and refused to be with him.
Shuai Chengying returned to his hometown in his later years, living in simplicity, clothing and vegetables, and helping the poor. He strictly educated his children, and he had to behave in a disciplined manner and be upright. Officials must be honest and self-disciplined, and must not covet money. In the Qing Dynasty, the Shuai clan became a famous and prestigious family in Huangmei, and the children cultivated and read heirlooms, and all officials were incorruptible.
Zhao Xinchu (formerly known as Shuai Qitai, renamed after participating in the revolution) was the sixth grandson of Shuai Chengying, and served as vice governor of Hubei Province, vice minister of culture, secretary of the Hubei Provincial Party Committee, and minister of grain. Zhao Xin initially held an important position, strict with himself, lived frugally, and never engaged in specialization. Under the grass-roots investigation, he always followed the light car and did not engage in the set of front and back support; the hospitality was all simple, and it was not allowed to be extravagant and wasteful. An old comrade who was once the secretary of the township party committee told the author about a past story: In the 1980s, he received Zhao Xinchu, who went to the countryside to investigate. At lunchtime, Zhao Xinchu accidentally dropped a few grains of rice, immediately picked them up from the table and sent them into his mouth to eat. The people present were shocked and moved, but Zhao Xinchu smiled indifferently: "A grain of grain and a drop of sweat cannot be wasted." ”
Zhao Xinchu often said: "As a Communist Party member, you must not take the oil of the public family, fatten your mouth, and smear the face of the Communist Party." In 1978, Zhao Xinchu went to the United States with a delegation to investigate, and after returning to China, he handed over a suit issued to him by the Protocol Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He never seeks personal interests for his relatives and friends, and the special car equipped to him in accordance with the regulations of the organization never allows his family to take it. After leaving the holiday, Zhao Xinchu thought that the area of the house given according to the regulations of the organization was too large, so he sealed half of the house and returned it to the state, and only lived in half of his family, and opened another door to enter and exit.
Zhao Xinchu died, the funeral was from Jane, returned to his hometown, and rested in the mountains.
Qingshan is not poor, and green bamboo is a neighbor.
