Section 843 The two women are as beautiful as delicate flowers

Nalan Shiqi was originally a rival to Yan Chenyu. Even before Koala fell in love with Yunluo, she saw all kinds of intimacy between Yunluo and Xiaoyu baby. It can be said that Koala should not be able to join forces with Yan Chenyu, but something very interesting still happened, but An Chuyu really got a strong reputation.

No girl’s family doesn’t like to be jealous, and Yan Chenyu and Koala are no exception.

Koala and Yan Chenyu passed through the moon gate to the west from the Gulin Hall of Daming Temple, followed the stone level and arrived at the corner of the Xiyuan, a classical garden with wild interest in mountains and forests. There were bricks engraved with the words "Fangpu" on the forehead.

Fangpu is also known as Xiyuan. It was built in the 16th year of Qianlong (1751). The villas around this garden are undulating, with pools in the garden. There is a yellow stone rockery piled up in the east of the pond. The shape is like a picture of a lion's swan mountain, with exquisite and pleasant ideas. Xiyuan is also known as the Imperial Garden. Fangpu is located on the former site of the former Pagodayuan Xilangjing on the west side of Pingshan Hall, so it is named Xiyuan. Wang Yinggeng built it in the first year of Qianlong (1736) and was built in the 16th year of Qianlong.

During the Xianfeng period (1851-1861), it was destroyed by wars. During the Tongzhi period (1862-1874), Fang Junyi, the salt transport envoy of Lianghuai, rebuilt it, and it was also repaired in the late Qing Dynasty.

After the founding of Xinhua Kingdom, when the Daming Temple was allocated in 1951, the West Garden was sorted out. In 1963, a Huyuan Chuan Hall was rebuilt on the island in the pool, and a Sewed-Bun Pavilion with "Sitting on the Well to Watch the Sky" was rebuilt on the well pavilion; the pavilion was stacked next to the pavilion, and the stone quotation of Wang Shu's inscribed "The Fifth Spring in the World" was embedded on it; the Kangxi Monument Pavilion, Qianlong Monument Pavilion, and Waiting Yue Pavilion were maintained.

At the same time, the scattered yellow stones in the park are collected. At the west side of the Kangxi Monument Pavilion, Wang Laoqi, a family of Diishi, Yangzhou, stacked large yellow stone rockery, and sorted out sketches along the yellow stone pond bank along the pond.

In 1979, three rooms of Xinyuan Cypress Wood Hall were relocated on the waterside on the south bank of the Xiyuan Pool, and three rooms of Nanlai Guanyin Temple were relocated on the northwest of the pool. A new square pavilion was built on the west side of the pool.

At the same time, the pond stalks leading to the Tingshi Mountain Room (Cypress Hall) are cut off, and the Huangshi Rockery is located near the water on the west side of the Kangxi Monument Pavilion. A cave is built on the east side of the Zhiyue Pavilion, and a stone path around the garden is opened. After repeated repairs from 1980 to 1999, the West Garden is becoming more and more perfect.

The West Garden covers an area of ​​dozens of acres, with a pool of water in the middle. The blue waves are rippling; the surrounding hills are undulating, the mountains are covered with green mountains, and there are abundant plant varieties.

The buildings in the West Garden are surrounded by mountains and rivers, including Kangxi Imperial Stele Pavilion, Qianlong Imperial Stele Pavilion, the fifth spring, the moon pavilion, the Fangpu rockery, the crane tomb, the Tingshi Mountain House, the boat hall, the fifth spring in the world, the Schedule Pavilion, the Buddha Light Hall and other famous sites.

The Kangxi Imperial Monument Pavilion is located on the south side of the fifth spring. It is a square pavilion with a four-corner eaves, a hip roof, an overhead flower ridge, covered with small gray tiles. The corridor is covered with bricks on the top of the corridor, and "n"-shaped doors are set on the south, north and west; two fan-shaped transparent windows are opened on the south and north walls, one by one, symmetrical.

There are two transparent windows on the west wall, which can see the scenery of "Fifth Spring in the World". Both the corridor walls are painted white inside and outside, with 12 red pavilions and seat rails outside. There are empty brick foundations under the seat rails, and water-milled blue bricks are laid on the ground.

A rectangular Kangxi imperial poem stele was placed on the wall of the east corridor. It was a poem "Lingyin" written by the throne of the 28th year of Kangxi (1689) when the Shengzu was in the southern tour of Yangzhou. Gao Chengjue, the prefect of Yangzhou, gave the poem "Lingyin" to the imperial court. Gao Chengjue tied stones to build a pavilion to worship.

The inscription of the imperial poem of Kangxi: Lingshan is full of beautiful scenery. The ridges are rugged. The Buddhist temple is empty, and the fragrance clouds surround the ground. The collars are open and the green layers are green, and the horses are off to caress the smoke and rosy. The feather guards are idle and come and go, and they are not the same question.

Why did the five-character poem about Lingyin Temple written by Kangxi stand in Yangzhou? Here is an allusion of Kangxi's southern tour. In the 28th year of Kangxi's reign (1689), he passed by Yangzhou for the second time. At that time, the prefect of Yangzhou was from the Zhengbai Banner of Manchuria, and his brother Gao Chengjue had a close relationship with the emperor.

Gao Chengjue was ordered to go to Xihu City for inspection first, and then rushed back to Yangzhou to go to Xihu City. Later, when Kangxi returned to Kyoto, Gao Chengjue sent the emperor to the Sangong Bridge, and the emperor was very happy in the imperial boat. He gave a poem "Lingyin" and promoted Gao Chengjue to Jiangnan Censor. In order to show his glory, Gao Chengjue erected the monument in Daming Temple on March 16 of that year.

Walking down the steps, there is a rockery stone path in front of you, passing through a stone gate, and on the west side of the entrance of the West Garden, there is a Qianlong Imperial Monument Pavilion, which looks simple and profound, with three Imperial Monument on it.

Qianlong Imperial Monument Pavilion is located on the west side of the entrance to the west garden, facing north and south, with a single-eaves hip roof, with lintels under the eaves, 16 pavilions, red paint, and a clear empty seating railing around it, with black railings and white seating bases, with distinct colors. The ground is paved with square water-milled blue bricks, and three imperial stone tablets are placed in the middle.

On the easternmost stone tablet, there is the imperial poem "Pingshantang" written by Emperor Qianlong during his first southern tour in Xinwei, and the plum blossoms bloomed in spring. As a result, I saw the first view of Huaidong. The fragrant breeze came to the moon, and the branches and branches were painted into the cloud railings. Shugang is Xiwuyuan, and Yongshu did not last for Xie An. I liked the snow remaining on the green peaks, and the fragrance and color of Pingzhang helped Qingyou.

On the westernmost stone tablet, there is an imperial poem written by Emperor Qianlong Dingchou during his second southern tour of the Southern Song Dynasty: The pine and bamboo at the west end of the West Temple are deep, and Ouyang's old sites are tried to visit. The mountains in the south of the Yangtze River are endless, and the time is beautiful in February. The four-character eaves are hanging on the top of the sacred algae, and the seats in Qianqiu are lifted with official precepts. The spring tour is full of emblems, and the emblem is particularly gratifying.

On the stone tablet in the middle, there is an imperial poem written by Emperor Qianlong on the third southern tour of Renwu, Emperor Qianlong wrote on the first day of the April 1st. The beautiful boats are moved lightly to the waterfront, and people think of the tour of June 1st. The shade of leaves is now welcoming summer, and the flowers are shining yesterday to see the spring. The clever method must be praised for the water, but the pure wind is ashamed to pay the price of the firewood. The mountains in the south of the Yangtze River can be looked at in a flat banquet, but I can't look at the mountains because of the mountains. I can remember the people because of the mountains.

Qianlong wrote more than 40,000 poems in his life, which was more than the sum of "Complete Tang Poems". During his stay in Pingshan Hall, Yangzhou, he recited poems and essays, leaving behind dozens of poems. After savoring them carefully, he could also feel the artistic conception of that time.

The ancient trees in the garden are towering, the rocks are rugged, the water in the ponds is shimmering, the pavilions and terraces are elegant, there is a lake in the mountains, and the fifth spring in the world is the lake.

Not far south of Qianlong Imperial Stele Pavilion, there is a well, which is called "the fifth spring in the world". Zhang Youxin, the top scholar of the Tang Dynasty, Liu Gongbo, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice in the Tang Dynasty, and Lu Yu, the saint of tea, all wrote records of this spring. Emperor Qianlong visited the Imperial Garden of Daming Temple three times, and tea was aroused by his poems: "There is a cold Shugang, and the fragrance comes to spring."

The fifth spring in the world is located in the southwest of the boat hall, in the center of the pool, and has a stone path that can be connected to and from.

Volume 16 of Li Dou's "Yangzhou Huafanglu" says: First, during the 1911 period of Yongzheng, Wang Xuzhou wrote the five characters "The Fifth Spring in the World" by Ma Qiuyu. He wanted to embed it into the side of the old spring under the corridor of Xiaolinglong Mountain, but suddenly he searched for Liu Jingshan. After Ying Geng built this garden and found a spring, he sent someone to search for Xuzhou to write. At that time, Xuzhou hemorrhage was unable to write, so he ordered the comers to go to Huishan Xiema Pavilion to write the stone carvings of "The Second Spring in the World" written by him when he was young, and the character "Five" was changed to the character "Five Spring in the World". Therefore, the character "The Fifth Spring in the World" is the same as Huishan.

According to the "Record of Jiancha Water" by Zhang Youxin, the spring water here was rated as the fifth in the world at that time. Ouyang Xiu of the Song Dynasty said in "Record of Spring Water in Daming Temple": "This well is the beauty of water." Today, people travel to Daming Temple and still enjoy drinking the fifth spring water in the world.

There are two "Fifth Spring" here. One is on the east bank, and the three big words "Fifth Spring" are engraved on the stone tablet; the other is found in the west pond when the pond was dug during the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty. People at that time thought this was the real fifth spring and built a well pavilion on it. The tea brewed with the water from the fifth spring has a bright color and a rich fragrance, which is praised by the whole world.

Lu Yu of the Tang Dynasty was fond of tea all his life and was proficient in tea ceremony. He was known as the "tea fairy" and respected as the "tea saint". The water in the fifth spring of Daming Temple is not only suitable for tea, but also for wine. The "Pingshantang Wine" in the Qing Dynasty was made of the water from the fifth spring. It is said that this spring is clear and sweet, and is extremely cool in summer and warm as spring in winter. Put the water into the cup and fills the cup with a little without overflowing, which is quite amazing.

Koala and Yan Chenyu stood on the hillside and looked westward. They saw a pool of water in a colorful field. The blue waves in the pond were rippling, and red fish flashed. The edges of the pond were green and lush. The pavilions and towers, small bridges and stone paths were like a beautiful landscape painting.

The rocks in the garden are towering, with green pines and cypresses, and shaded sun. Rockery, ponds, pavilions, pavilions, etc. decorate the garden in exquisite and unique style, with a sense of changing scenery. There are also buildings such as the waterfall viewing pavilion, the moon pavilion, the cypress hall, the boat hall and other buildings around the spring pavilion.

On the bamboo altar with yellow stones on the east side of the fifth spring, it is built against the wall. There is a rectangular stone tablet standing there, with the cursive characters "Crane Tomb" embedded in it, with a white bottom and a green character.

Next to it is a stone tablet, which carved an inscription on the crane tomb: In the 19th year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty (1*3 AD), the abbot of the monk Xingwu, raised a pair of white cranes in the crane pond in front of Pingshan Hall. Later, the female crane died of foot disease. When the male crane saw this, she cried day and night, and died of a grain of death. Xingwu felt his feelings and buried the crane here, and erected a monument saying: The unrighteousness of the world is ashamed of this bird.

Lin Hejing, a poet of the Northern Song Dynasty, lived in seclusion in Gushan, Xihu City, and liked to grow plums and raise cranes. He said that "the wife of plums and cranes are not married or even officials."

In the 19th year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, the abbot Zen Master Xingwu also raised two cranes in Pingshan Hall, which were very cherished and allowed the two cranes to play with. Later, one crane died of foot disease, and the other crane was also in a state of grief and finally died of hunger strike. Zen Master Xingwu was deeply moved and buried the two cranes here, erected a stone tablet with the "Crane Family" engraved on it.

There are light bamboos, mulberry trees, barley trees, Ophiopogon japonicus, etc. around the crane tomb. In October of the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty (1895), Li Yuhua wrote Yan's "Inscription on the Double Cranes" and laid a rectangular stone tablet, embedded on the wall south of the east corridor of the Daming Temple.

From the crane tomb through the Kangxi Monument Pavilion, along the slanted stone path between the mountains, crossing the bamboo forest and turning westward, it is the "Tingshi Mountain House". The mountain house is backed by the mountains in the south and facing the water surface in the north. It has four wide rooms and a single-eaved hip-hop. This house is demolished from the "Xinyuan" in the city, commonly known as the "Cypress Hall".

There is a rockery in the south end, made of Taihu stones stacked with rocks. The mountains are scattered and the peaks are staggered in height and their shape is beautiful. The rockery is 12 meters wide and 5 meters high. There are empty valleys in the middle and two passages are stacked.
