Historical story

Jingmingquan is also called mingjingquan and mingshuiquan. In Zhangqiu District of Jinan City, the north end of ximawan, Mingshui, the west side of Xiquan bridge, and the north side of the road. Because there is yanmingwang Temple beside the spring, it is also commonly known as yanmingquan. According to historical records, Li Shimin personally came here. Jingmingquan first appeared in the article "Qicheng · Volume 2 · Shanshui Kao" written by Yuqin of Yuan Dynasty. However, there was no record of this spring in mingquanbei of Jin Dynasty 760 years ago. However, in Ming Dynasty, jingmingquan was included in Ji'nan's poem of seventy-two springs by Yan Bi, a famous poet and then vice president of Yongle Dadian, but there was no Baimaiquan, It can be seen that this spring was quite famous at that time. According to the records of Zhangqiu county annals, Volume 3, landscape research in the 13th year of Daoguang reign of the Qing Dynasty, "jingmingquan (jingmingquan) flows eastward to ximawan at the west of Baimaiquan, in front of yanmingwang temple. Xu Bi said that the branches of Jishui river flow to the middle of the earth, and the springs flow northward to Xiujiang river. " There is a similar saying in Ji'nan Fu Zhi by Daoguang of Qing Dynasty. According to historical records, in the 18th year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin, king of the Tang Dynasty, went to Korea. The reason is that in the seventh year of Wude, Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty, the three Koryo, Silla and Baiji countries on the Korean Peninsula all submitted to the Tang Dynasty. In the 16th year of Zhenguan, Gao Li's general Gai Suwen led his troops to kill King Gao Jianwu and made himself molizhi (prime minister and Minister of the Ministry of war) to take charge of the government. The late invaders of the state of Silla turned to the Tang Dynasty for help. Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, was so angry that he drove to fight in person. When passing by ximawan, Linji County, many soldiers got eye disease. At this time, there are two boys and girls, leading the soldiers to the spring to wash, disease to see, the boy and girl also leisurely recluse. Since then, people have called this spring "jingmingquan" or "yanmingquan", and built "yanmingwang Temple" beside the spring, with a statue of boy goddess inside. Today, the statue has been destroyed, but the temple still exists. There are stone tablets such as the records of rebuilding the temple of eyesight and Xiquan town in the 24th year of Daoguang in the Qing Dynasty. There is an ancient Xiquan bridge beside it. According to Qicheng, Mingshui is named jingmingquan. It comes out of Baimaiquan and is beside the stone bridge in the northwest. The spring is clean and the fine dust is not left. The natives wash their eyes to get out of obscurity. They flow with ximawan for more than three Li and enter Xiujiang river This bridge is called "Northwest stone bridge". Jingmingquan is also famous for its water quality. Jingmingquan is also famous for its excellent water quality. Its water is warm in winter and cool in summer. It does not freeze in cold winter and melts when snowflakes fall. Therefore, it is also called "Xianquan". In the season of full water, the spring water gushes out from the stone gap of the river bank. Close up, the water gushes like a wheel, flows over the rocks, and murmurs with sound. Where the water flows, the grass is like a comb, showing deep green, which is quite a water scenery. The spring water is pure and sweet. If you brew green tea, its color is like amber, and its fragrance is very refreshing. Ancient Jingming spring is one of the springs in ximawan. It is located between the East and west low hills, which is different from Baimai spring. Ximawan starts from today's Jiaoji railway line in the South and ends at Jiqing highway in the north, with a length of 1.6 km and a width of 0.5 km. Diwan is a north-south Ordovician limestone fault, the north end of which is blocked by coal sand shale, and the spring water is upwelling from the fault fracture. According to the annals of the state of the prefecture, the "Twelve Qingou" is for this purpose. The West Bank of ximawan is 6 meters higher than the bottom of the Bay, which is called "Tangzi bank cliff" geologically. The south end of the West Bank is a low hill, which is called "Xishan". In the past, the scenery of the mountain and the "Qingou" was very clear and beautiful. In the 13th year of Daoguang reign of the Qing Dynasty, it is recorded in Zhangqiu county annals, Volume 3, landscape research: "the spring water comes out of the stone gully at the north foot of the western mountain, and the Northeast flow joins with all the rivers in the Shahekou." Shahe is a northeast gully between Yanchi and Shanyang village. "To the northeast of Zhanwang village, there is Xiujiang River, which is known as ximawan in history as" one spring forms a river ". The amount of spring is very abundant, ranking the highest among all springs in Ming Dynasty." It can be seen that the springs in ximawan have the largest water inflow in the Mingshui spring group, which is a natural spring bend. Now there are many spring eyes in the Bay, such as Shuji Xieyu. Clusters of bubbles rise slowly, like pearls, and bloom like flowers on the water. The algae in the water and the mosses on the bank make the water green. Jinyu in the water is full of vitality. Shallow bay reeds, shore willows Yiyi, a school of spring forest, beautiful countryside scenery. In ancient times, many poets and poets left wonderful essays and sentences. They stood on the west mountain and had a panoramic view of the beautiful scenery of lakes and mountains. The wonder of the spring, the beauty of the lake and the seclusion of the forest have attracted countless poets and poets, leaving many wonderful essays and sentences. It can be said that the spring is famous and famous. In the Ming Dynasty, the imperial censor of Chenghua Jinshi (the official of inspecting Dao, Fu and Zhou) once wrote a poem in Hong Han Dynasty: Ma Wan was pure and lax, thousands of training was sought, and the stone was flat and thousands of treasures were sprayed. The mountains and the moon are cold, the autumn is blue, the lotus wind is chaotic, and the mirror is dust-free. The wonder of heaven and earth is that it originated from Sibin. The green mountains and green waters described at that time set off a clear spring, clear as blue, with extraordinary scenery. Jiao Ermi, a scholar in Zhangqiu village in the Qing Dynasty, once described the pastoral beauty of the farmhouse outside Tangzi village. The poem said: there are weeping willows and flowing springs in Yujia village. Moon seems to want to stay, so put a fresh lotus. There are so many well-known poems, such as moving scenery with objects, moving scenery with surroundings, and moving things with feelings. These famous poems and Fu add a lot of rich cultural atmosphere to Mingquan, and add a strong book aroma to the beautiful landscape. Today's Mingquan Park covers an area of more than 450 mu, which is displayed in front of the public. Its three major functional areas of spring viewing, lotus appreciation and leisure are reasonably arranged and scattered. It is a vivid portrayal of yanmingquan park that "the scenery is strange, the road is not good, where is the water road?". The yanmingquan bridge on Feijia Bay is like a rainbow lying in waves, dividing ximawan into North and south sides. In the south is the source water, in the north the water is wide and the lotus is rippling. From afar, we can see the water area of Mingquan, where the mist is filled with mist, the willow branches are green, the water color is bright, and the beautiful scenery is very attractive. The sound of the spring, the sound of the Qin and the sound of the water and the trees are bright and colorful. Under the beautiful sun, it looks like a beautiful ink painting. Jingming spring gathers the water of all the springs. It winds northward and joins with Baimai spring to form Xiujiang River, which is the "Mother River" of Zhangqiu people. There are thousands of hectares of paddy fields on both sides of the Strait, which can benefit from fish and rice irrigation. Yuliujiaan, luhuangjingcui and Baohe are fragrant at the source, as well as "quantoumi" and "zhanwangxiangmi", which are famous for paying tribute to the royal family, and crisp and delicious lotus root, all of which are cultivated in jingmingquan springs.
