Wanghai tower

Taizhou Wanghai building was first built in the second year of shaoding in the Southern Song Dynasty, which is 777 years ago. Seven homophonic, even out of three, must contain Providence. This building has been destroyed many times, most of which were destroyed by war and started in prosperous times.

It is said that during the reign of Emperor Kangxi, when it was revived, it began with heavy rain and thunder, followed by clear sky and crane flying. People were shocked by this image and thought it was a good omen, so they respected this building more and more.

The recent destruction in the early days of the Anti Japanese war was also a disaster of war. It can be seen that the fate of this building is a sign of the rise and fall of the Chinese nation. When the prosperity of the old country reopens, Taizhou is thriving, is there any reason why Wanghai tower should not be rebuilt?

There is Wanghai tower in Taizhou. It's all because local officials live in the village and have lofty aspirations. They are wandering in the mud, but their heart is in the sea. Zhusi tower can also climb up from time to time, look down on the world, and enjoy themselves with extreme eyes.

There are not only local people such as Shi Naian, Wang Gen, Zheng Banqiao, Liu Jingting and Mei Lanfang, but also foreigners such as Lu You, Fan Zhongyan, Ouyang Xiu, Yue Fei and Kong Shangren.

Moreover, the cassock is like a cloud, the Buddha's name is full of ears, and the eminent monk's great virtue is endless.

The higher the sky is, the wider the earth is. Where is this place? It is also called an important platform of Chinese culture.

In the early spring of 1898, Taizhou Municipal government decided to rebuild Wanghai building. The architecture adopts the shape of Song Dynasty, and its scale is strong, its materials are excellent, and its craft is refined, so as to absorb the style of ancient county and the charm of prosperous times.

People in Qing Dynasty chanted the poem of Wanghai building: "I can't bear to see the old sunset of hazelnut" and "thousands of households are busy with building one night." Today, the hazel has been removed, the setting sun is not old, new buildings have been built, and thousands of households are busier.

Busy in boarding, busy in reception, busy in nostalgia, busy in imagination. It can be said that this building was originally built to look at the sea. Unexpectedly, it was built far and near. Only when the wind, morning and rain came alone, could we know where Taizhou is.

Today, when you go to the building and think about the sea, you can feel the waves and the charm of the music. Today, Wanghai tower remains the same. Although the sea has disappeared, the calm people she raised have already buried deep sea complex in her heart.

Wenhuitang

Taizhou Dongcheng River, opened up a new "wenhuitang" landscape. There are statues of Fan Zhongyan (998-1053) and Teng Zongliang (991-1047).

According to the historical facts at that time, Hu Yuan (993-1059), Zhou Mengyang (1000-1068) and Fu Bi (1004-1083) should be added. They all gathered in Taizhou at the right time in tianshengzhong (1023-1031) of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Fan Ren was the salt supervisor of Xixi, Teng Ren was the judge of Taizhou, Hu and Zhou were from Taizhou. They were not officials at that time. Fu Bi was from Luoyang. At the age of 20, his father Fu Yan (who was the tax supervisor of Taizhou) came to Thailand to study in Jingde Buddhist temple. These five people often exchange knowledge and recite poems together.

Therefore, Teng Zongliang specially built a hall in the State Department, which was named "wenhuitang" in the name of "wenhuiyou".

Fan Zhongyan wrote twenty-two five character poems in shuhailing tengzhuowenjiehuitang (see Taizhou records · Yiwen), which left a good story for Taizhou Wenyuan.

There is a saying in the poem that "a gentleman is not alone", which is the same as that in "Yueyang Tower" written by Teng Zhiyue 23 years later when he asked fan to rebuild Yuezhou. During their stay in Thailand, fan and Teng built dikes to protect the sea and prevent the floods of Lixiahe river.

This also proves that fan and Teng's thoughts of "first worry, then happiness" and "not alone happiness" have been put into practice

Teng Zongliang, a native of Luoyang, was a Jinshi with Fan Zhongyan in 1015. He was also assigned to Taizhou with Fan Zhongyan. Later, he was appointed as a member of tianzhang pavilion to serve as an official. Teng Sheng is free and easy. He likes to make friends and give to others. He has no money left at home. Whenever he went to be an official, he would build or rebuild buildings for the local people.

When he first came to Taizhou, he built "Wen Hui Tang" in the Department garden to play with porcelain. Construction funds, of course, use public money. Later, when he learned about Jingzhou, he used the national treasury to build many buildings, which were impeached by his superiors and transferred to Yuezhou.

Sima Guang, the prime minister who worked with Teng Zong Liang in Zizhi Tongjian at the same time, has such a record in his Wushui Jiwen: "Teng Zong Liang knew Jingzhou and used his official money to build Loutang. As Tailian said, he sent envoys to Yanzhi. Zong Liang heard about it and learned about the burning of the minister's calendar (i.e. account book). When the messenger arrived, he was unable to file a case. He was defeated by Chao Yan, only to know Yuezhou (that is, Yueyang)

After Teng was transferred to Yuezhou, "the country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change.". Not long after he became governor of Yuezhou, he rebuilt the "Yueyang Tower". But he won't use the Treasury money this time. Where does the money come from? In Sushui Ji Wen, Sima Guang recorded the source of the money: "Teng Zong understood Yuezhou and built Yueyang Tower without saving money (public funds)
