Commemoration of future generations

Gugong Temple

According to the records of yunjianzhi in the Song Dynasty, in the late Tang and Five Dynasties, when Baoshan Temple was rebuilt in Jinshan Tinglin, Gu Gongci was built to honor Gu yewang. In memory of him, he built a private garden called "Dudu Dui" and wrote works such as yudizhi, which opened the southeast civilization.

According to the records of local chronicles such as Wujiang annals by Hongzhi of Ming Dynasty, Wujiang county annals by Qianlong of Qing Dynasty and Wujiang County continuation annals by Guangxu, Guxu, where Gugong temple is located, is a capital outside the north gate of Wujiang River. It was originally the old house of King Guye. It is said that it was the place where he wrote Yupian (there is a Xuan in the house, named Tingjiang Xuan). Later, the temple was established here (it is said that this place is on the Bank of Wusong River, and there are often tides and floods Drinking, then stop, local people call Gu Gong "drinking tide king").

In the autumn and September of the first year of the reign of emperor Jingguo (1101), Wujiang county magistrate Shi Chu Dao came to Gu Xu for business. When he saw that an ancient temple was very simple, he asked his entourage and said it was Gu Gong temple. When Shizhi County went to the temple to pay homage, it was found that only the image of Gu Gong was "painted on the board" and "the clothes were not correct". Therefore, "the corruption was removed, the structure was changed, the image was set up, the list was set up, and the spring and autumn sacrifice was made", and the reconstruction was recorded by himself. In the second year of Xuande in the Ming Dynasty (1427), Jia Zhong, the county magistrate, was rebuilt. In the eighth year of Chenghua (1472), Wang dixiu, the county magistrate. Chongzhen seven years (1634), Zhixian Zhang rigong rebuilt.

In the 18th year of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty (1661), the statues were redrawn. In the seventh year of Kangxi reign (1668), two additional gatehouses were built to offer sacrifices on the same day at the Sangao Temple (the temple was dedicated to Fan Li, Zhang Han and Lu guimeng). The article says: "only the official who lived in the state of Chen was appointed as the official of Huangmen. He made jade articles for the benefit of the scholars, and defended the tide for the benefit of the farmland. In the 12th year of Jiaqing (1807), the ancestral hall was not finished by Guicheng, a descendant of King Guye. In the 16th year after that, Rujing "asked Wu dazhongcheng Zhang Gongxu when he was in power, and the ancestral hall was listed in the case of protection", so he "gave an example" and "issued an edict to give money and silver eight hundred and forty-seven Liang" to make the temple look new. In 1872, the temple was rebuilt.

Gugong temple has gone through many vicissitudes. According to Mr. Xu Youlian of Sanliqiao village, in the 1950s, the temple of Gu Gong was changed into a school. Two statues of Gu Gong and Mrs. Gu in the temple were temporarily placed in the school. Later, the villagers moved them to a thatched shed near the Wusong River near the Jiapu bridge and invited them back. After the beginning of the cultural revolution, Gugong temple was destroyed and demolished. The two statues were secretly placed in the Guanyin Mountain peak temple in Suzhou. In the 1990s, local villagers built a small Gugong temple near the original site of Gugong temple, and two statues returned to their hometown.

Fortunately, with the attention of Wujiang municipal Party committee and government, Gugong Temple (King Guye Memorial Hall) was officially restored and rebuilt in 2006. After more than a year, it was completed in the second half of 2007. The reconstructed Gugong temple is located in Sanliqiao ecological park, surrounded by flowers and trees, pools and rockeries, which is a scene full of spring. On the west side of the temple is the Grand Canal of Beijing and Hangzhou, and on the southwest side is the Sanli ancient bridge, a cultural relic protection unit of Wujiang City, which forms a wonderful picture of "Daiwa high bridge meets the green water, red flowers and trees cover the yellow gate".

The reconstructed Gugong temple is composed of stone archway, Mountain Gate and main hall. The stone archway has four pillars and three gates, and its forehead is engraved in both north and south directions. In the south direction are "sage Gu Gong", "Secretary Du Xue" and "Li Bi Dao Jian". In the north direction are "hometown of Shilang", "ancient Wu Shaoyun" and "Liang Chen Yifeng", and four couplets are engraved. One of them is Wu Shisen sentence of Qing Dynasty, and the other three are written by Chen Zhiqiang and Zhang Fanglan of Li Dynasty. The mountain gate and the main hall will be displayed and arranged to completely and vividly reproduce the double image of Gu Ye Wang, a historical figure and a folk legend figure.
