Biefeng nunnery, Zhenjiang

On the bieling mountain in the shadow of the double peaks of Jiaoshan, surrounded by green bamboo, there is a unique square courtyard called biefeng nunnery. Biefeng refers to the main peak (East peak and West Peak) which is different from the top of Jiaoshan mountain. Zheng Banqiao, a great calligrapher and poet of the Qing Dynasty, once read books here, so biefeng temple is famous. Biefeng nunnery was built in the Song Dynasty. The eminent monk Foyin of the Song Dynasty wrote a poem: "there is no place to find, who is the guide. I'll see you later. It was in biefeng temple. There is another poem in the imperial edict of the Ming Dynasty: "the bamboo is dense and there is no way, and the cloud suddenly opens to the door. When I look at the courtyards, I see only one peak. There are three small rooms in the north of biefeng nunnery, a flower bed in the courtyard, two osmanthus trees, and a few bamboo poles. The environment is very elegant. This is the place where Zheng Banqiao, a famous painter of the Qing Dynasty and one of the eight monsters in Yangzhou, studied in Yongzheng period. There is a banner titled "Zheng Banqiao reading place" on the door of the passage, and the couplet written by Zheng Banqiao in his handwriting "why is the room elegant, the fragrance of flowers is not too much" is still on the door. Facing this situation, we can not help but feel regret for the old friend of the library. Zheng Banqiao, named Xie, was born in Xinghua County, Jiangsu Province. He was a Jinshi in Qianlong period. He is good at painting orchid and bamboo, and his calligraphy combines Li, Kai and Xing. His characters, paintings and poems are known as the "three wonders" in the world, and are most famous among the "eight monsters in Yangzhou". He loved practicing in Jiaoshan and left many works of ink bamboo poetry and painting. In his poem "painting bamboo in nature nunnery", he said: there are 15 families in Jiaoshan, each family has bamboo and fence. Drawing to the paper flying up, to sweep the sky sunset. There are also rubbings written by him that are "hard to get confused" and "it's a blessing to suffer losses", which people are competing to buy. In addition, Zheng Banqiao once wrote a couplet for the old nature nunnery: "the mountain is shining, because of the new rain, the river turns back to the late tide." At the same time, he wrote a couplet in the temple of the sea in the past: "at the end of the Chu Dynasty and at the end of the Wu Dynasty, a piece of green mountains is seated; at the north of the Huainan River, tea is cooked in the autumn water." These wonderful stories are often praised by later generations.

Jiaoshan, Jiangsu Province

Jiaoshan is one of the three famous scenic spots in Jingkou (the other two are Jinshan mountain and Beigu mountain). Xiang is famous for its natural landscape, simple and elegant. Surrounded by green waves, lush trees, green grass and green mountains, it looks like a jasper floating on the river. It is the only island in the Yangtze River surrounded by water. It confronts with Xiangshan and Jiajiang on the other side. It is just the so-called "ten thousand rivers flowing to the East, one island neutral". It has the metaphor of "Water Park" in the south of the Yangtze River and is known as "floating jade in the river". The mountain is 71 meters high and more than 2000 meters long. It is named after Jiao Guang's seclusion in the mountains in the Eastern Han Dynasty. It's like climbing on Putuo Fairy Island and winning the admiration of Chinese and foreign tourists.

Eight monsters in Yangzhou

Yangzhou Eight monsters is the general name of a group of calligraphers and painters with similar styles who lived in Yangzhou area in the middle of Qing Dynasty, or Yangzhou painting school. The theory of "Yangzhou Eight monsters" has a long history. But the names of the eight are different from each other. According to Li Yufen's "a study of the painting and calligraphy of Oubo Luoshi", the "eight monsters" are Luo pin, Li Fangying, Li eel, Jin Nong, Huang Shen, Zheng Xie, Gao Xiang and Wang Shishen. In addition, there are Gao fenghan, Hua Yan, min Zhen, Bian Shoumin, etc. who are listed as "eight monsters" in various books. Their opinions are very different. Nowadays, people take the number of "eight" from Li Yufen.

Reading view

Zheng Banqiao, a famous painter in the Qing Dynasty and one of the eight monsters in Yangzhou, is highly accomplished in art. His paintings, poems and books are known as the "three wonders". His character is noble, and his works are full of cynical and upright fighting spirit. "I'm tired of hating poetry and books every year. I'm advised to read everywhere." Zheng Banqiao, who once wrote this poem, also has many brilliant views on reading. The author sums up his words of encouraging the younger generation to read from the collection of Zheng Banqiao published by Shanghai Ancient Books Publishing House, which will still enlighten people today.

First, we should have a choice in reading and not read indiscriminately. He said: "reading requires being precise and proper. If it is appropriate, both the rough and the rough will be fine. If it is inappropriate, both the fine and the rough will be fine." He also said: "study for perfection, not too much, not too much, only the essence is able to carry on, but more and worse ears." "If you recite too often, you will not be able to recite anything. That is to say, among the 130 historical records, Xiang Yu's chronicle is the most important, and in Xiang Yu's Chronicle, the battle of Julu, the banquet of Hongmen and the meeting of cuxia are the most important. Recite the view repeatedly, you can be happy or cry, here are a few sections of the ear. If a historical record is read all the time and recorded by every family, it's not a dull man who doesn't know! There are also novelists who say that all kinds of legendary bad songs and doggerel poems are not forgotten. For example, the shabby cupboards, the stinky oil and bad sauce are stored in them, and they are too dirty to bear. " Zheng Banqiao means that you can't pick up all the dishes in the basket. You can read whatever you catch. Reading indiscriminately is not only a waste of time and energy, but also harmful to the body and mind. Of course, the selection criteria should be based on the actual situation of each person. It depends on whether the ideological content is healthy, whether it is beneficial to moral cultivation and sentiment cultivation, and whether it is helpful to individual learning.

Second, we should be independent and independent in reading, and we should not be led by the nose. Zheng Banqiao thought: "if you know that there are books in the book and there are books outside the book, you will have a clear mind and a clear mind. How can you be bound by the ancients and have no claim! How could they be confused by the Confucianists of later generations and lose the true meaning of the ancients? " He also said: "the words of Confucianism must not be heard. Scholars have their own eyes and their own spines to read." "When we read and cherish the past, we can't agree with each other. It's common that we don't believe in the common customs He thought that reading should insist on independent thinking instead of following others' advice and being a slave of books. Without this article, even if we choose the most appropriate books and study hard, we will not get good results.

Third, reading should have a correct purpose. When Zheng Banqiao was the magistrate of Weixian County, he sent a letter to his younger brother in his hometown, saying: "it's a small matter for my husband to be an official when he studies. The first thing is to be reasonable and be a good man." "With a handful of books, I want to be promoted, promoted, and become an official. How can I grab money, build big houses, and buy more land. At the beginning, he made a mistake. Later, it got worse and worse. There was no good result. " If the motivation of reading is not pure and the utilitarian heart is too heavy, there will be no great progress. How high can a bird fly with its wings tied with gold? If everyone can be reasonable and respect each other through reading, the society will be harmonious.

Fourth, we must study hard and study deeply. Once Zheng Banqiao chose the book he thought should be, he devoted himself to intensive reading. He is so diligent in reading that he is almost addicted to it. "It is said that Banqiao is good at reading and memorizing, but he is good at reciting. Every time Banqiao reads a book, he will read it a thousand times. In the boat, immediately, by the bottom, or when food forget dagger, or to the guest do not listen to their words, and forget their words, all remember the book.
