Before Yuan Dynasty, Cuihu was a lake bay near Panjiawan in Dianchi Lake. Li Chuan's poem "Journey to the Cuihai" said: "Kunming is 300 miles long, and the vegetable sea is integrated with it. The Dragon Cave in the Han Dynasty ... "The spring water gushing from Cuihu directly flows into Dianchi Lake.
Mr. Fang Guoyu's textual research: "Before the early Yuan Dynasty, the west bank of Dianchi Lake blocked the foothills, and its north, east and south sides, from Bijiguan Gao Xia Village to Mianquanshan Shangpuping Village, the south foot of Xiajiayao Tuanshan, Liangjiahe Village, Lingjiaotang, Panjiawan, Tuqiao, Guandu, Haiyan Village, Xiajinsha Village of Shizhai Mountain and the edge of Kunyang City. (See Fang Guoyu's "A Brief History of Yuan Dynasty, The Story of Sai Dian")
In the 11th year of Yuan Dynasty (1274), Saidian paid a visit to Pingzhang House in Zhongshu Province, Yunnan Province. At the beginning of 13th year of Yuan Dynasty (1276), the governor of Dali advised Zhang Lidao to make two thousand wars. This is the first dredging of Haikou water conservancy project.
"In the 21st year of Zhiyuan (1284), the state changed and the county remained unchanged. Its land is 500 miles in Kunming pool, and the city wall will be taken in summer. Zhang Lidao advised agricultural messengers in Dali and other places to seek springs and drain their water, and to get more than 10,000 hectares of land, all of which are fertile fields. " (even "Yuan History Yunnan Geography") Several large-scale water conservancy projects in the Yuan Dynasty, the water level of Dianchi Lake dropped, and Cuihu Lake was separated from Dianchi Lake, which became beautiful and clear water. The lake is "red and withered, and the natives planted China Chiba Lotus", and the surrounding "Caiyuanban" is called Caihaizi, also known as Cuihai. There are nine water springs in the lake in the northeast of Cuihai. "Jiuquan comes out and merges into a pool, hence the name" Jiulongchi ".Water from Cuihu flows into Dianchi Lake.
In the 14th year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty (138 1), Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Fu Youde, Aquamarine and Mu Ying to make a conquest in Yunnan, and Bazaar, the last king of Yunnan in Yuan Dynasty, was defeated in Dianchi Lake, and the Ming army pacified Yunnan. In the sixteenth year of Hongwu (1383), Fu Youde and Aquamarine returned to Nanjing, and Zhu Yuanzhang's adopted son Xiping Hou Muying stayed in Yunnan. In the 19th year of Hongwu (1386), Mu Ying built a brick city in Kunming, bringing the Green Lake Circle into the city. In the 23rd year of Hongwu (1390), Mu Ying imitated Zhou Yafu, a famous Western Han Dynasty, sent troops to station, and built "willow shadows" and "planted willow horses" on the west bank of Cuihu Lake. In the Qing Dynasty, "Tongzhi Yunnan Zhi Shan Chuan" contained: "Jiulongchi is located in Kunming County, and its vegetable garden is half occupied, so it is also called Caihaizi. The paddy field is flat, and the lotus pond is below. Along the right side of Wuhua, it runs through the southwest of the city and joins the Dianchi Lake in Panlong River. The Mingmu family has other business on it, called Liu Ying. " Mu Ying loves horses and often watches and washes horses by the Liuying River, so the river where Cuihu leaves the city is called "Washing Horse River". There is a poem describing Mu Shiying's "Willow Shadows Wash Horses": "The willow shadows are bright and the flowers are bright, bringing an old age. The general thought about washing his armor, and Shen Jun was born with light. " At the end of the Qing Dynasty, Chen Rongchang also wrote a poem "Willow Shadows Wash Horses": "There are elegant camps in the city. Fu Jian's new horse and old soldier. I am willing to wash all the bones and swear to fight against the turmoil. When Dianchi Lake in Shen Jun comes out, the dust will be flat. "
On June 10th, the 25th year of Hongwu (139 1), Mu Ying died at the age of forty-eight. His eldest son, Mu Chun, attacked, and Liu Ying, a green lake, was changed into a villa of Gongmu family in Qiandongnan, with weeping willows and a terrace floating on the water. In the Ming Dynasty, the Duke Mu of Guizhou was hereditary, and his mansion is in today's Victory Hall. The willow shadow of Cuihu Lake is a "different business", and there is a "Xiyuan Yunshui Village" near the Caohai River.
In the tenth year of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty (1653), Liu Wenxiu, the "Nan 'an King" of Daxi Army, returned to Yunnan. In the 13th year of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty (1656), Zhu Youlang, Emperor of the Southern Ming Dynasty, entered Yunnan and named Liu Wenxiu King of Shu. Liu Wenxiu regards Liu Ying and Mu as "kings of Shu", also known as "Nanfu".
In the 15th year of Qing Shunzhi (1658), Wu Sangui, king of the day, led the Qing army to attack Yunnan. /kloc-in October/February, the Qing army joined forces in Qujing, and Emperor Zhu Youlang of Li Yong fled to Myanmar. In the seventeenth year of Shunzhi (1660), the Qing court ordered Wu Sangui to be stationed in Dian Town, Wu Sangui as the "School of Qi Mu" and Li Yong Palace in Wuhua Mountain as the "Pingxi Palace". In the first year of Emperor Kangxi of Qing Dynasty (1662), Wu Sangui Li Yong and his son were in Jinchan Temple at the foot of Wuhua Mountain. Jinchan Temple slope is called "forced slope". In the third year of Emperor Kangxi of Qing Dynasty (1664), Wu Sangui dealt with "Liu Wenxiu's old house, because it was small", and then "filled with half vegetables and Haizi to make a new house", "Liuying area was full of treasure pavilions" and "flowers and trees were scattered and cloisters were built with stones". The stone railings of the new house were all marble reliefs, which was extremely luxurious. In the Qing Dynasty, Li Chuan's poem "Going to the Sea" described the scene of Wu Sangui's extravagant desire to build a new house: "Just a few days after his armor was unloaded, he was ordered to choose a virtuous person to build a palace. Ming Di's palace was not what he wanted, but he taught me to say goodbye to Fang. When the military orders reached the subordinates, they moved mountains and filled the sea, carving only one piece of land, and the cloud was born. Where are the ten continents and three islands? The golden house hides the charming, charming songs and dances are spring. The flowers and plants are fragrant, and the moonlight wine is scaly. It's hard to count more arrogant and happy. There are birds as big as Luo ... "
In November (1673), in the 12th year of Qing Emperor Kangxi, Wu Sangui fought against Qing Dynasty and went to Hunan under the banner of "Marshal Ma recruited all over the world". In the 16th year of Kangxi (1677), Wu Sangui defeated Dongting and retreated to Hengzhou (Hengyang). In March of the 17th year of Kangxi (1678), Hengzhou proclaimed himself emperor in a hurry, with the title of "Zhou" and "Zhaowu". In August of the seventeenth year of Kangxi, Wu Sangui died of sudden illness in Hengzhou. His grandson Wu Shizhen succeeded to the throne and changed to "Honghua". In the 18th year of Kangxi (1679), Wu Shifan140,000 troops were wiped out by the Qing army in Hunan. The following year, Wu Shifan was defeated by Yunnan, and Wu Shifan changed its name to Honghuafu. There is a stone bridge across the Xima River outside Honghuafu Gate, which is called Honghua Bridge. So far, the river has been changed into a sewer, and the place name "Honghuaqiao" still exists.
In the 20th year of Qing Emperor Kangxi (1681)1October 28th, the Qing army "captured Yunnan and entered the city", and the "Honghuafu" was renamed as "City Garden".
In the 27th year of Emperor Kangxi of Qing Dynasty (1688), Fan, Governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, demolished the Wu residence in Honghuafu and rebuilt the Taihua Hall in Xishan with wood and stone materials. Up to now, the marble relief railings of Honghuafu are still preserved in front of the Daxiong Hall and the ethereal building of Taihua Temple. In the 31st year of Emperor Kangxi of Qing Dynasty (1692), Wang Jiwen, the governor of Yunnan Province, built Biyi Pavilion on the island in the middle of Cuihu Lake, later called Haixin Pavilion. "Laishuanglou" was built on the shore and lakeside of Hubei. Calligrapher Tu Yun wrote an inscription for Biyi Pavilion and Laishuanglou: "Drunk Penglai in Spring" and "Watching the Hall".
In the sixth year of Yongzheng in Qing Dynasty (1728), Dragon Shrines built "the Dragon King of Nongdeli on the Kowloon Pool at the west gate of the city, and sent a statue of the inner government to Yunnan to build a shrine to honor the auspicious day. (Qing Yongzheng's Yunnan Tongzhi) In the fifty-eighth year of Qing Qianlong (1793), Dragon Shrines, also known as the Black Dragon Temple, was rebuilt in Dunzhu, a magistrate in Yunnan.
In the first year of Jiaqing in Qing Dynasty (1796), Kunming "compatriots in the same city presented a gift to Master Guanyin, donated 120 yuan, respected the first hospital, and erected a solemn golden statue to worship it." Xiaolian Ni Shiyuan (word Yunpu) lives on the bank of Cuihu Lake. "I will pass by here sooner or later, and there is no room for my knees outside the pavilion. Therefore, I advocate donating money to fill the foundation in the west, and building three houses is a stop. Yan Yongfeng Temple monk Yu 'an, 20-year-old living in Xigong incense. Buy the surrounding thatched houses, fill them steadily and widely, and then become the foundation. " Jiang Yupu, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Industry (Ziting), "generously donated money ... began to make materials and built three attics, three in the front hall, three in the front hall, three in the back hall and three in the back hall." Later, Zhu "advocated donating three towers of Mawangdian and five east wing rooms". Yan Nan observed that Liu Yu "donated three temples of Sanlei and Wulong, and made pavilions, stoves, bells and drums". The front and back halls and the east wing rooms are resplendent and salty, and the halls are completely new. ""Its sea route stretches for more than 300 feet from north to south. For more than 100 years, it has collapsed, narrow and low-lying, flooded with rain. There is a policy of changing the north to the public, and it is advocated that donations be increased and widened, and the work of half a year will be cultivated and leveled. "
Ni Shiyuan, Ni Xian and abbot Yu 'an built the Lotus Temple project, which lasted 2 1 year. In the 21st year of Jiaqing, "Bingzi (18 16) was successfully completed" (Inscription of Lotus Temple in Ding Jian by Ni Xian).
In the 15th year of Daoguang reign (1835), Ruan Yuan, governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, built a dike along the bamboo fence of the "release pond" in Cuihu, "from the south to the north of the temple". Later, a stone bridge was built on the north-south causeway, with Swallow Bridge in the south, Yingying Bridge in the north and lianhua bridge in the middle. Ruan Yuan also built Xixuan Boat House and Lian Xiao House in Cuihu (note: Lian Xiao House was built in Wu Sangui). At that time, Yili Bu, the governor of Yunnan Province, had a preface to Poems on the Release Pond of Haixinge. The preface said, "The Longtan in front of the Lotus Temple is unfathomable and lined with rows. Every winter, coastal residents have to go fishing by boat, and those who are too big and fine can't get away ... Just cut down the bamboo on three sides of the pool to make a fence of more than 70 feet to store water and protect the fish. "
Ilib, whose real name is Nong Xin and Huang Qi, was a scholar of Jiaqing in Qing Dynasty and served as the magistrate of Tengyue and Yongchang in Yunnan. Daoguang served as governor of Yunnan for five years (1825), Yungui for fifteen years (1835) and Liangjiang for nineteen years (1839).
In the 10th year of Guangxu (1884), Yu Ying, governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, rebuilt the Lotus Temple. Ling Shiyi wrote a couplet of the Buddhist Temple: "Ten acres of lotus fish world, half the city of Liufo Pagoda". In the 9th year of Guangxu reign in Qing Dynasty (1883), Chen Rongchang, a scholar, once wrote down eight views of Kowloon Pool, namely, "Xiaoying in the spring, jathyapple in the autumn window, the sound of books in a quiet house, the lights in restaurants, the willow shadows washing horses, the lotus temple watching fish, the green sun resting in the shade, and the violet listening to the rain".
In the 17th year of Guangxu reign in Qing Dynasty (189 1), Zheng Jing Academy was established on the north bank of Cuihu.

When Yuan Jiagu, the first economist in the late Qing Dynasty, lived on the north bank of Cuihu, he was accompanied by Cuihu day and night, and there were a lot of poems describing Cuihu. The poem "Early Autumn in Cuihu" says: "A city with firewood, water, fish and mountains, a pavilion in the middle of the lake, at midnight. In the new autumn, several people picked it up, and the yellow leaves are silent poems. "
At the end of the eighth year of the Republic of China (19 19), the Tang Dynasty renovated the east-west long dike of Cuihu, and built a family "Shuangjiefang" at both ends of the dike. The "Weidong" iron bridge stands in the east of the levee, and the "Dingxi" stone bridge stands in the west of the levee. This east-west levee meets the north-south levee in the middle of the lake. Yuan Jiagu has a poem "On the Cuihu Dike": "The left and right trees meet the Greentown Cave, and the shallow water starts to add pond water. Double-decked chariots and horses are like the sea, and I will tie a poem. "
