A 2.7-meter-high and 0.9-meter-wide stone tablet is erected in the small stone pavilion, on which a stone statue of Wen Tianxiang is carved. This portrait was taken by Gan Gongliang, the governor of Huizhou in Ming Dynasty, from Luling, Jiangxi Province, Wen Tianxiang's hometown. The inscription on the stele is Wen Tianxiang's Yi Dai Ming: "Kong said Chengren, Meng said Yiyi, only its meaning is exhausted, so Renzhi. What do you learn from reading sages? Now and then, I am worthy of it The inscription on the belt of clothes was obtained from Wen Tianxiang's belt of clothes after he died in 1283, so it's named. The stone pillars on both sides of the pavilion are engraved with a pair of couplets: "song is the only one in the hot blood chamber; who else is outside guzhongling?" This couplet was written by Lin Daqin, the number one scholar from Chaozhou in the Ming Dynasty. It is vigorous and handsome.

Soon after, Chen Xiang, a garrison in Huizhou, built a memorial archway in front of biaozhong Temple (to the south of the temple) and a Fangfan Pavilion behind it. " Houbiaozhong temple and Zhongyi memorial archway were destroyed by Japanese invaders. The original site was pengpai middle school. According to legend, there is a couplet in the biaozhong temple, which says: "a meal will last forever; Wupo will last forever." Wen Tianxiang (1236-1283), a politician and poet in the late Song Dynasty. Song Rui is also called Wenshan. Luling (now Ji'an, Jiangxi Province) people. He was a loyal and righteous man in history since he was a child. He was the number one scholar in his 20 years old. In the first year of Deyou (1275), he was the magistrate of Ganzhou. At that time, Yuan soldiers attacked Jiangnan. He recruited volunteers in Jiangxi and went north to fight.

The following year, Yuanbing approached Lin'an (Hangzhou, Zhejiang), the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty. He was sent to Yuanying as a secret envoy of Youcheng Baishu. He was impassioned and unyielding. Unexpectedly, the Southern Song government sent someone to beg for surrender. Wen Tianxiang was detained by Yuan soldiers and forced to go north. When he passed Zhenjiang, he escaped by night and went to Fujian to recruit soldiers to assist duanzong to fight again. In the first year of Xiangxing (1278), he was attacked by Yuan soldiers in wupoling, Haifeng, Guangdong Province, and was defeated and captured. In the second year, Yuan soldiers escorted him through Haidao to Yashan (now in the South China Sea of Xinhui, Guangdong Province), preparing to destroy the last base of the Southern Song Dynasty, which was tenaciously resisted by the song army. In Yuan Dynasty, Zhang Hongfan forced Wen Tianxiang to write a letter of surrender to Zhang Shijie, the commander-in-chief of the song army who was defending the cliff mountain. Wen Tianxiang solemnly refused, and showed Zhang Hongfan the poem "crossing the Lingding ocean" written on the way to show his heart. The famous sentence in the poem, "who has no death in life since ancient times? Let's take the heart to reflect the history" has been recited by later generations. Yashan was defeated and Song Dynasty was destroyed. Wen Tianxiang was escorted to Yanjing. On the way, he wanted to serve his country by death, but he could not escape by chance. In terms of imprisonment, the Yuan rulers tortured the people with all kinds of methods, and tried both hard and soft, but failed in the end. Zhengqi song is an immortal work he wrote in prison. On the 9th of December in the 19th year of Zhiyuan (early 1283), he died calmly. Many people have come here to pay homage, and many are left to be handed down. It can be seen from the poems that Wen Tianxiang's noble and upright spirit is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Excellent works are everywhere, popular and inspiring. Wen Tianxiang's noble and upright spirit in Wuling has brought about the growth of celebrities from generation to generation. Huang Dianyuan, the leader of peasant uprising in Qing Dynasty, and Peng Pai, Qiu Dongping, Ke Lin, Chen Zui, Huang Dingchen, Zhong Jingwen, Zheng Zhong, Li Yin, Wang man in modern times were educated and influenced here since childhood. Fangfan pavilion was rebuilt many times in Ming Dynasty and Qing Dynasty. The existing Fangfan pavilion was rebuilt after liberation, and the monument of Wen Tianxiang is original.
