introduction

Yunyan palace is also called Huangdi palace. It is located in Liuzhai Township, Southeast of Xinmi, 35 kilometers southwest of Zhengzhou City, Henan Province. It used to be the place where the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan built palaces and halls, trained soldiers and taught martial arts, and researched and created eight battle plans.

Documentation

According to the historical records of the five emperors, the book of mountains and seas, and the inscriptions of the Yellow Emperor's palace, the Yellow Emperor was defeated by Chiyou in the ninth battle because of his lack of generals and skills after Chiyou's rebellion and invasion of the Central Plains. He led his troops to retreat to Yunyan palace in Xinmi City, where he practiced martial arts and built a palace, which became the political, military and cultural center of the Central Plains at that time. In order to fight against Chiyou, the Yellow Emperor recruited talented people and successively worshipped Fenghou, Limu, Changxian and Dahong as generals. Together with Fenghou, he developed the earliest eight array art of war in China and led his troops to defeat Chiyou in one fell swoop, thus unifying the Central Plains.

Early relics

On March 14, 2008, when planting trees in the Huangdi palace scenic area of Xinmi City, a tree pit was dug up and an ancient cultural site was unearthed. The newly discovered site is located more than 100 meters north of the palace area of the Yellow Emperor Palace. Local people dug a tree pit and excavated a pile of broken pottery pieces and red burnt soil from the pit. It was identified that there were fragments of reticulated black pottery, eggshell pottery, tripod legs and other pottery. Wei dianchen said: "this should be an ash pit, that is, the garbage pit where the ancient people used to bury their waste. It should be surrounded by an ancient cultural site. The pottery pieces unearthed are mainly black pottery, belonging to the early relics of Longshan culture, with a history of about 4700 years."

It is understood that previously, cultural relics workers successively found relics of Yangshao culture and Longshan Culture on three ancient castles in the Yellow Emperor Palace. Researcher Cai Quanfa from the Provincial Institute of cultural relics and Archaeology led a team to excavate the cultural sites on one of the castles, and unearthed a number of cultural relics of Yangshao and Longshan culture, such as pottery, bone ware and stone tools. During the third national cultural relics survey last year, Xinmi cultural relics protection and Management Office discovered a large-scale ancient cultural site with an area of more than one million square meters in Ximazhuang village, north of Huangdi palace, including Peiligang culture, Yangshao culture and Longshan culture relics. These sites are densely distributed around the Huangdi palace and along the Wuding River, with a total area of more than millions of square meters. They provide physical and archaeological basis for exploring the origin of Chinese civilization and studying the activities of Xuanyuan Huangdi, the ancestor of Chinese culture, in the Central Plains.

Huangdi Palace

It is located on the North Bank of Wuding lake, close to mountains and rivers, with elegant environment. The hall is filled with incense candles and praying instruments. One by one, the pious wanderers knelt down in front of their ancestor Huangdi, praying for peace and happiness. In the Xuanyuan cave, the statues of the Yellow Emperor and the wind queen are leisurely and lifelike. They seem to be talking about the past and the present, discussing the peace of the world. Talking about the martial arts field, the ancestral hall, the meeting Pavilion, the imperial garden and the Leizu thatched cottage, they are like pearls inlaid around the hall, which makes the whole hall well arranged and distinct.

In front of the Yellow Emperor's palace, there is a lake with a clear water mirror and clouds. The willows are green and the pearls are shining. The birds are flying and the warblers are singing. The reflection is floating and shining, like a crystal palace in the water.

There are three castles on the other side. The two nearby buildings are like palace towers. On the left, surrounded by water, it is located on Longfeng Island, surrounded by pines and cypresses. In the castle, there are eight steles of wind queen, small wooden houses with unique shapes for people to travel and vacation, and caves with warm winter and cool summer. The one on the right is located in Qingxin island. The southernmost city of the eight terracotta warriors behind the wind is like a screen. Hundreds of terracotta warriors and horses in the castle are composed of Tianfu formation, dizai formation, Fengyang formation, yunchui formation, Longfei formation, Huyi formation, niaxiang formation and snake coil formation, which represent the spectacular scene of the eight formations created by the Yellow Emperor and the wind queen.

Behind, is a crescent shaped water. From Xuannv island to Xuannv gorge, you can look up by boat. The cliffs on both sides are amazing. The pines and cypresses growing in the cracks of the stones are like the miniature of the Three Gorges. This is the "Jiulong Lake" behind the Yellow Emperor Palace. There is a small island in the middle of the lake. On the island, there is a "Jiulong Temple", also known as the "little temple of dragon catching king". Beside the temple, there is a monument of good deeds. According to legend, in ancient times, there was a young man named Wang Xiao. Because he did not hesitate to the farmer's blood and sweat, he whipped buckwheat for 45 Li. When he came to jiulongtan to drink horses, the Yellow Emperor ordered the dragon to catch him. The people applauded for this, so they built temples and erected steles to show their descendants. On the jianshiyan in the north of the pool, there is a ribbon waterfall, which sprays silver and jade all the year round. The water rushes against the rocks, and the sound is as loud as a dragon's song and as loud as thunder. It is called "Xiangshuitan" by the world. There is a poem in Xiangshui, which says: "after Manjusri's visit, the road is clear and the heart is clear. It's not a waterfall, it's full of wind, it's full of thunder. "

The picturesque scenery here has been objectively compared, saying that it is "big like bonsai, small like West Lake".

At night, the Yellow Emperor Palace is more charming and romantic. People are singing, dancing and laughing, as if they are playing and communicating with the guards of the eight terracotta warriors on the other side of the south bank. Scenery beauty drunk, all this seems to outline an old and affectionate picture.

As a place of pilgrimage and vacation, Huangdi palace has attracted many literati and poets. Zhang Yujie, a poet of the Ming Dynasty, wrote a poem praising the eight formations of the Yellow Emperor's Palace: "wandering behind the wind, Gao Song stands on all sides. The horse walks in the haze, and the people walk in the sun and the moon. A small eagle in a flowing spring, a rainbow in a Xiashi. Looking at the dragon, snake and scorpion from afar, you can see the twelve palaces of rotation. " Qian Qingjian, a famous poet of the Qing Dynasty, wrote a poem to praise him: when he defeated Chiyou, he rewarded his disciples and buried his military amulet in the deep stream of Yunyan. I will never stop fighting for thousands of years, and the grass and smoke will lock the array.

"In recent years, after the restoration and construction, the Yellow Emperor Palace has become a scenic tourist area and summer resort. The tourists went back and forth on the lake with all their heart. Diaoyutai, natural swimming pool and water song and dance hall add infinite vitality to the ancient and elegant tourist area.
