Historical evolution

Since the establishment of Hejian Prefecture in the Northern Song Dynasty, Hejian prefecture has a history of 804 years. Therefore, there are both government offices and county offices in the city. Until the revolution of 1911, the government was abolished and the county was saved. In 1936, the KMT government once again established the office of the Commissioner here. The county government offices were all located in the original government offices (now the seat of the second middle school).

architectural composition

The old yamen block faces south to the north. In front of the yamen, there is a tall screen wall (screen wall). On both sides of the screen wall, there is a gate. Outside the gate, there is a yong road leading to the east-west street of Hejian. Beside the street, there is a tall wooden square with the four characters "Yan Zhao Xiong Feng" carved on it. (it is said that it was written by Fang Guancheng, governor of Zhili) there are a pair of stone lions on both sides of the gate, and there is a well near the gate. On the walls on both sides of the gate (after the revolution of 1911), the book on the left reads "the world is for the public", and the book on the right reads "select the talents and abilities". Inside the gate, there are gatekeepers (reception room) and two square flagmen facing each other. On both sides of the gate, there are houses for officials to live in. Inside, there is the Yi gate. The East and the West are separated into official houses. It is the place where officials work. There is Shenming Pavilion in the East and Jingshan Pavilion in the West. Inside the gate is the Guangting corridor, with towering cypresses on both sides. On the west side is a large bronze bell, engraved with inscriptions, containing 1000 taels of platinum. It was heard for 40 Li. The bell was later looted by the Japanese invaders.

Along the corridor to the north, there are five steps of the original stone terrace, on which there is a hall, called the hall, which used to be the place for government officials to hear cases. The general civil cases in the hall are allowed to be heard by the public, so as to reveal the judgment of "honest and upright officials". There is a plaque hanging in the middle of the hall, which reads: "Bao (Bao) Li Tang", which is said to be written by Yan Song of the Ming Dynasty. There are wing rooms on both sides of the lobby, which are the rest and dressing places for government officials. In front of the hall stands the ring stone pavilion, and the inscription on the stele reads: "your salary, your salary, and your people's contributions. It is easy for the people to abuse, but hard for the heaven to bully. It is opposite to the official seat in the hall. Behind the hall is the hall. After the hall is the second Hall. Some confidential cases are heard here, and the public are not allowed to listen. After the second hall is the inner house, where the family members of the magistrate (formerly known as the prefect) live. Inside the house, there are wing rooms in the East and the west, where the magistrate handles official documents and receives guests. Xikuayuan is the shrine and Tongzhi department. Dongkuayuan is the land ancestral temple and experience department.

The big screen wall in front of the Yamen. It is about seven meters high and ten meters wide. After the revolution of 1911, Dr. Sun Yat Sen was painted on the south side of the screen wall. On the north side of the screen wall is written a paragraph of "Great Harmony" in the book of rites, which says: "it's also a great way to travel, the world is for the public, to choose the virtuous and the able, and to uphold good faith. Old friends are not only relatives, but also children. So that the old have their end, the strong have their use, the young have their strengths, widows and lonely, all have their support. Men have their share, women have their return, goods are evil, they are abandoned in the ground, they do not have to hide in themselves, and force is evil, they do not come from the body, they do not have to do for themselves, they are for great harmony. " The shadow wall still stands here after the founding of the people's Republic of China. When the streets were built in 1963, it was demolished because it affected the traffic.

To the south of Fuya is fumenkou street. It used to be a prosperous and tidy street. There are many restaurants and shops on both sides of the street. There is a wooden archway in the south of the street. It was built in the eighth year of Yongzheng reign of the Qing Dynasty (rebuilt in 1730). It is a pure wooden structure with cornices, brackets, painted pillars and carved beams, which is quite spectacular. The main gate in the middle and the ear gates on both sides are very smooth. "Chengzhen" and "Zhengping" are written above the East and West ear doors. On the top of the main entrance are four big characters: "Yan Zhao Xiongfeng", and on the bottom are the titles of commissioner Huang Weicheng. Actually, these four are written by old Mr. Wang Bolong (Juren) in the city. After the founding of the people's Republic of China, it was rewritten by baijinhua, a teacher of Hejian Normal University, as "prosperous economy", which endowed the ancient building with the significance of the times. The wooden archway was also demolished in 1963 because of street construction.

In Song Dynasty, Li Suzhi was the first person to build Hejian government office. In the early years of Hongzhi in the Ming Dynasty, Xie Wen, the governor, carried out a large-scale construction of the government department, which was the only major action since the Song Dynasty. In the year of Xinwei in Zhengde of Ming Dynasty, the government office was destroyed by fire, and then Zhang Yi rebuilt it. After that, the prefects successively perfected the government. After entering the Qing Dynasty, the Qing government followed the old system, and still set up Fu Cun County in this city, and the government department was still in place. But after the Republic of China, with the abolition of the prefecture and the county, the center of gravity moved, and the lack of financial resources, disrepair, by the time the Japanese invaders occupied Hejian, it was in ruins.
