allusion

Xingyin Pavilion is located on a small island in the middle of Tingtao Scenic Area of Wuhan East Lake scenic area. There is a three story Square Pavilion style building built in 1955 to commemorate the great patriotic poet Qu Yuan.

The name of the pavilion comes from "Qu Yuan was released, swam in the river, and sang along the Bank of the river" in the book of songs of Chu, fisherman. The three character plaque of "xingyin Pavilion" inscribed by Guo Moruo is hung on the pavilion. In front of the pavilion stands a statue of Qu Yuan with a height of 3.6 meters and a base of 3.2 meters.

As the forerunner of Quzi Cultural Park in East Lake, it connects East Lake with the greatest historical figures of Chu state.

According to the research, Qu Yuan has been to Wuhan. In nine chapters of mourning for Ying, the river in "going to the old capital is far away, following the river and going into exile in summer" is the Yangtze River. Summer is the downstream of the river, and the old capital is Ying (Jiangling). This paper describes Qu Yuan's route when he left Ying, that is, along the Han River to the Yangtze River, where the Han River flows into the Yangtze River, that is, today's Wuhan, and then along the Yangtze River "the boat will float down, up Dongting and down the river".

Therefore, Qu Yuan's trip passed through Wuhan. "In the summer, I float to the west, but I don't see the dragon gate.". At the beginning of summer, the Han River flows into the Yangtze River. "Climbing the grave to look far away, chatting to ease my worries.". The high ground in the water is called the grave. Some people think it is the present Guishan mountain. In Jiuzhang wading the river, he "takes a ride in Yingzhu and looks back at the wind of autumn and winter.". Xiaozhou in the water is called Zhu. Some people think it is in the Yangtze River not far from the upstream of Sheshan.

From Qu Yuan's series of chants about the scenery of Wuhan, we can see that Qu Yuan not only passed through this place, but also really wandered here. Because of this, there have always been people who set up Qinglie temple in today's Wuchang area to offer sacrifices to Qu Yuan. Xingyin Pavilion commemorates Qu Yuan in the places where Qu Yuan's footprints are everywhere.

Qu Yuan is the founder and main author of Chuci. 25 Chuci in 7 volumes, such as Lisao, Jiuzhang and Jiuge, are the precious wealth left by Qu Yuan to human beings, shining with the brilliance of cultural celebrities. People admire Qu Yuan's patriotism and his eternal masterpiece.

Qu Yuan is not only a poet, but also a statesman. He pursues truth and justice, loves the people, and has rich and persistent feelings. Qu Yuan loved the local culture, wrote Chu language, made Chu sound, recorded Chu place and became famous for Chu things, and actively absorbed the advantages of foreign culture, which made Chu culture grow and sublimate on the basis of retaining its characteristics. Qu Yuan is the soul of the Chinese nation

activity

In front of the statue of Qu Yuan in xingyin Pavilion, a grand sacrificial ceremony was held to commemorate the great patriotic poet Qu Yuan.

The process of Qu Yuan's sacrificial ceremony is divided into seven parts: greeting God, offering money, offering at the beginning, offering at the end, drinking and receiving blessing, and looking at Liao (sending God). In order to show the original appearance of the ancients' etiquette, the worshippers, deacons, utensils, costumes and music all tried their best to follow the ancient law. Some utensils were borrowed from the Provincial Museum.

At the beginning of the sacrificial ceremony, 20 children dressed in Hanfu recited Qu Yuan's Lisao and offered a gift at the beginning of the line. With the praise officials singing loudly, the sacrificial ceremony officially began.

Four musicians played "Chu Shang" with Sheng, flute and Xiao in front of the altar. Under the guidance of 15 deacons, 60 worshippers made "first offerings" to Qu Yuan's statue: offering incense, toasting and kowtowing. Then the worshippers chanted a 600 word sacrificial essay, praising Qu Yuan's great achievements in his life and expressing their admiration for him.

During the whole ceremony, all the students in the traditional Chinese culture class dressed in Chu costumes looked solemn. During the ceremony, they kowtowed 15 times to show their respect and love. The whole ceremony is in an orderly way, demonstrating the etiquette style of the ancients.

After the sacrifice, in the children's loud "Lisao" recitation, the two worshipers threw the dumplings into the East Lake water, throwing the dumplings, while shouting blessing, blessing the God of Qu Yuan Tai'an

scenery

Xingyin Pavilion faces water on three sides and is a three-story ancient architecture with four eaves like wings. The roof of the building penetrates the clouds. Under the eaves of the top floor is inlaid with a three character plaque of xingyin Pavilion written by Guo Moruo. Against the backdrop of the vast expanse of green waves around, xingyin Pavilion is majestic and magnificent. It is said that this pavilion was built to commemorate Qu Yuan's "as for the riverside, I will sing along the riverside with my hair". At the South Gate of the pavilion stands a white statue of Qu Zi. Qu Zi stands on the foundation stone more than one meter high and looks up. That is the lofty image of "Gao Yu's crown is on the brink, and Chang Yu's admiration is far away". Looking up at the statue, a sense of sublimity arises spontaneously. Qu Zi devoted his whole life to the country and the people, but he was envied and slandered by a group of "party members" and was difficult to be in the court. "The world is turbid and I don't know it, but I'm running high and I don't care about it." on the platform of three feet, the proud Qu Zi seems to be striding high. He would rather die for his ideal than go with the world! However, his haggard face and condensed eyebrows show his sad mood. However, he is not grieving for his life, but "mourning for the hardships of people's livelihood"! All kinds of flowers and plants planted in the stone fence on both sides of the statue are also moved by it, competing with each other to fight against autumn. It is said that in order to pity Qu Zi, God specially asked him to "drink the dew of Magnolia in the morning and eat the autumn chrysanthemum in the evening".

Climbing on the top floor of the pavilion and looking around, there is a magnificent scene. In the East, the clear water meets the sky, and there are thousands of hectares of waves. In the distance, the shadow of the Moshan mountain is graceful, like a big green snail in the mouth of the East Lake. The south is an open land with dense trees and lush grass. In the rustling autumn wind, I can't help but see one or two floating leaves, which reminds me of the wonderful artistic conception of "curling autumn wind, Dongting wave under the wood leaves". However, I think the scene in front of me is much more lively than that of autumn in Dongting, because they are bathed in the spirit of Qu Zi!

The most lively is the huge lotus pond in the northwest. The lotus pond is actually a part of the East Lake. It is only separated by numerous square stone barriers. The dense lotus leaves stand in groups, and there is almost no water surface. In the green cluster, there are several pink lotus flowers in full bloom, which makes people feel the vigorous and stubborn vitality of lotus. We even suspect that it is not in autumn that "making preserved tea is like clothes, and gathering Hibiscus is like clothes". Is it the immortal lotus specially cultivated by God for Qu Zi to "retreat and repair his body"? I hope they will never lose their fragrance and leaves
