Tandao Temple in Tandao Village, Monan Town, Ruicheng County, attracted my attention because of the place where sandalwood was cut down in the Book of Songs and the legend that "Yu Rui made way for fields".
Where is the place to cut sandalwood in the poem "Cutting Sandalwood"? In Tandaoling, Zhongtiaoshan, Monan Town, Ruicheng County. Zhongtiaoshan used to have dense forests and abundant plant resources. Among them, ebony tree is hard and meticulous, and it is the first-class wood for making farm tools, axles, furniture and construction. Cutting and transporting sandalwood became the daily corvee of ancient Wei people. The way of service extended from the mountain to the foot of the mountain, passing through the present Tandao Village, and the Yellow River was not far below the mountain. The cut sandalwood went down the Yellow River and arrived in Luoyang City. The Guangxu edition of Yongji County Records records that there is Tandao Mausoleum on Zhongtiao Mountain in the northeast of the ancient acropolis and Tandao Village under the ridge, all of which are related to the poem "Cutting Tan". Until the early Tang Dynasty, the imperial court paid tribute to Zhongtiaoshan with a bow made of sandalwood.
The cliff stone carvings of the Han Dynasty on the west side of the highway at the end of the original boundary of Zhongtiaoshan (from Jiezhou to Monan) were chiseled for road construction in the 1970s, and are now in Ruicheng County Museum, with the inscription "Han/Dayangtan Road Street/Wei Jun to Sangong". Dayang, now Pinglu and Ruicheng, is located in Dayang County of Han Dynasty, because it is in the Yang of the big river. "Taking the title of three fairs" is an auspicious and blessed term. This kind of inscription "bit to three public" is common in bronze mirrors of Han, Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties.
Yu Rui gave way to the bank, which happened at the end of Shang Dynasty. It is a border dispute between the border residents of Yu (now Pinglu) and Rui (now Ruicheng). After years of indecision, it naturally evolved into a dispute between the two countries. Fortunately, the monarch of Yu and Rui did not believe in force easily, but decided to ask a third party to arbitrate. This may be the earliest arbitration case. Ji Chang, a vassal at that time (his son King Wu was made King Wen after the demise of Shang Dynasty), enjoyed a high reputation in western countries and was named "Xibo" by Shang Zhouwang. Yu and Rui decided to go with Zhou to ask Ji Chang to judge right from wrong. When they entered the surrounding area, they saw the tiller give way to the river bank and the walker give way. When you enter the city, when you see different roads for men and women, the old people don't look forward to it. In the imperial court, the scholar was appointed as a doctor, and the doctor was appointed as Qing. The courtesy of Zhou's ruling and opposition parties made Yu and Rui monarchs deeply ashamed of their struggle for the bank: "I am fighting for the shame of Zhou people, and all I did was humiliation." So, without seeing Ji Chang, they returned together and voluntarily ceded the disputed land to each other. As a result, both sides refused to cede, and finally formed an idle land, which was later called "idle field" or "idle original". This incident is recorded in Poems, Elegance, Mian, Historical Records, Zhou Benji, Family Story of Confucius, Good Life and so on.
Now, in the south of Hongchi Township, Pinglu County, the west of Hougou and the east of Yijiagou, it is the legendary place where Yu Ruishi fought to the end. Here is Zhongtiao Mountain in the north and the Yellow River in the south. The soil is fertile and the land is flat and straight. In spring, wild flowers are in full bloom, butterflies are flying, and every village is shaded by trees. "Spring scenery in idle fields" has always been one of the eight ancient scenes in Pinglu. In Tandao Village, Monan Town, Ruicheng County, which is adjacent to this place, there is a "Yu Rui Er Jun Temple" (also known as Erxian Temple) to commemorate it. The existing monument of "Jean Kidd, the Second Jun of Yu Rui" in Jin Dynasty stands in the original site of the temple, and there are two ancient cypresses planted by Zhou Wuwang in memory of the Second Jun of Yu Rui in front of the temple.
Tandao Temple, also known as Houtu Temple, is now dedicated to the twin daughters of Empress Houtu and Emperor Yao and her two concubines. As soon as I entered the newly-built gate, I saw the two ancient cypress trees, which are said to belong to Bai Zhou, one male in the east and one female in the west, and one in Pinglu and Ruicheng counties. Now this temple is managed by Pinglu and Ruicheng counties 13 villages. Every year, the temple fair on the birthday of the Virgin Mary after March 18 of the lunar calendar is crowded with people.
The fairy temple is old. It turns out that there are only east and west gables, which are transparent from north to south, with columns and no walls. After adding the front and rear walls. The main hall behind the fairy hall was newly built, so it was omitted.
Brick carving, stone carving and wood carving are all regional. Several brick carvings here were seen again in the former residence of Jing Yaoyue, not far from here.
Palladium nails are nailed from the outer wall to the inner beam and column, which firmly connect them together and play a stabilizing role. The palladium nails on the outer wall here have special shapes, including bats, scorpions, deer, mice, donkeys and so on.
Jing Yaoyue's former residence is located in the campus of Monan No.2 Middle School in Ruicheng County. Founded in the Republic of China 12 (1923), it has a layout of three-way quadrangles, and was announced as a municipal key cultural relics protection unit in 2004. In 1950s, it was used as the school building of Monan Middle School until 20 1 1.
Jing Yaoyue (188 1 ~ 1944) is a native of Xiao Si Qian Village, Monan Town, Ruicheng. He served as a juror in the 29th year of Guangxu reign (1903). The following year, the official was sent to Waseda University in Japan to study law. At the same time, join the alliance. Then he founded a magazine to publicize the revolution. After Wuchang Uprising, he was elected as the chairman of the provincial representative meeting. When the Republic of China was founded, the inauguration declaration of the interim president was drafted, and Sun Yat-sen was awarded the national seal as a spokesman at the inauguration ceremony. Participate in the formulation of the interim Covenant law and the interim government organization law. 19 12 was appointed by Sun Yat-sen as Deputy Minister of Education (Acting Chief) and President of Nanjing University of Political Science and Law. After the North-South peace talks, Jing Yaoyue broke away from the Kuomintang and organized a political friendly meeting to support Yuan Shikai. Zhang xun restoration (19 17) organized an anti-Jing rebellion in Shanxi and Henan, and served as commander-in-chief. 1922, he was still a member of the House of Representatives when the National Assembly was restored for the second time. After the Northern Expedition, he left politics and devoted himself to academic research. After that, he taught in many colleges and universities, devoted himself to writing and educating the country. At that time, he and Mr. Huang Jigang were called "scenery in the north, yellow in the south". /kloc-in the autumn of 0/937, Xia she was founded, secretly engaged in anti-Japanese activities, and refused to assume the post of puppet Japanese regime in North China. When he was seriously ill, the Japanese Puppet forced him to live in the Japanese Puppet Tongren Hospital, and he was finally executed at the age of 62.
This is the back (northernmost) second-floor library, and the stairs behind the library.
The gate of the former residence is sealed.
This is the situation of the outer court between the courtyard gate and the courtyard gate. The typical layout is that the house facing south faces north, so it is called inverted seat, which is used as living room, bookstore, financial office and doorman. The second door is the standard "hanging flower door", and the second door is the "inner courtyard", which infantry can't enter. In ancient times, women could not leave the front door or the second door, which were the two doors.
Every entrance to the courtyard has a west side door, which is one of the side doors.
? You can see a corner of the yard from the side door.
Liang Qing Temple is a famous temple in Yuan Dynasty. Founded in the seventh year of Dade in Yuan Dynasty (1303) near Potou Village, Monan Town. Repaired in Ming and Qing Dynasties, it is the fifth batch of national key cultural relics protection units.
Liangqing Temple is located on an earthen platform sandwiched by two ditches. It used to be a current, which split in two from the back of the temple and surrounded the front of the mountain. The Yellow River has been cut off in recent years, not to mention the rivers and streams. There is no water, but there are dams, reservoirs and no water in the ditch next to the temple.
Only the remains of the main hall are being repaired and built.
Being in the main hall is full of vicissitudes, but it still makes people feel majestic.
Four stone tablets are embedded on both sides of the pedestal of the main hall and on the front wall of the main hall. The plaque of Ursa Major Hall has weathered, and the whole hall is full of ancient meaning.
The main hall has five floors and two sides, and the facade is a piano face. The front and rear gold pillars span three rooms each, with remarkable characteristics in the Yuan Dynasty.
? The pillars in the hall are quite thick.
As can be seen from the inscription on the beam ridge plate, it was rebuilt during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty.
The pure chanting, the bell, the pilgrims who worship the Buddha and the incense in the air all disappeared in the long river of history, leaving a silence. Only at the temple fair on the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month every year, the villagers in Shiliba Township hold up a brief excitement. All kinds of food stalls, department stores and agricultural products flooded the roadside, agricultural tricycles, motorcycles, electric cars, bicycles and adults and children were crowded slowly, and the gods in the hall suddenly had more sacrifices and incense, and the noisy secular world was with God.
The monument of Fan Mother's legacy in Xiayang Village, Ximo Town was built in Xianfeng of Qing Dynasty for three years (1853). Brick carving imitates a wooden monument building, with a single eaves resting on the top of the mountain, and the word "Wan" is decorated on the outside of the monument niche. Brick-carved couplets on both sides read: "The basic idea is that today's people pursue the world, and the typical style has been high since ancient times", and the horizontal batch reads: "Worship the world and add luster". Sculpture is trivial.
There's another one in the beast collection.
Wenfeng Pagoda in Fangjia Village, Lengdong Township, Ruicheng County is located on the high wall in the southeast of the village. This tower is nearly 10 meters high and faces north. The first floor is a brick square platform with a height of 4.7 meters and a side length of 4 meters. In the north, there is an inscription on the tower built during the period of Daoguang Wuzi (1820) in Qing Dynasty. The second floor is a brick octagonal tower, about 4.7 meters high. The tower is hollow, the tower gate is made of round stone, and there is an arched door on the north side of the tower.
What is standing on the high wall where Wenfeng Tower is located? I think it's a vertical shaft for ventilation and temperature adjustment of fruit cellar, and the height of the base is to enhance the effect and guard against theft.
Shousheng Temple stupa is located in relic East Street, Ruicheng County. According to the Buddhist sutra Fa Zhu Yuan Lin, among the 19 Sakyamuni Buddha pagodas built by King Ashoka of China in ancient India, the fourth one is Pu banta east of Yaoqin River, which is now the Shousheng Temple Pagoda. The tower was built in Yongping 10 in the Eastern Han Dynasty (67). The earliest temple in Shousheng Temple is called Asoka Temple. In the Tang Dynasty, the founder of Huayan and the division of the Seven Emperors rebuilt this temple, and the Tang Emperor gave it the name "Helin Temple". After Song Yingzong's death, Zongshen took the throne, designated the third day of the first month when Yingzong was born as Shousheng Festival, and began to give "Shousheng Temple" to many temples in China, which is one of them. At that time, Shousheng Temple presided over Huirun to rebuild the temple, and the existing stupa was rebuilt by the Zen master Rungong in the first year of Song Yuanfeng (1078).

Towering towers, clear skies, Wan Li, rings of treasures, and Yin Yan flies by. At noon, a woman lay in front of the tower, burned three incense sticks, just visible into the tower door, and sincerely went to chant Buddhist scripture. There was no one there. However, a clean temple is by no means pure land. It is said that there are also struggles for fame and wealth, as well as disputes with all walks of life.
