There are a little more characters on the gold plaque, such as "Bai Ren Tang" and "Ren". Why? Here is an allusion: when the "Bainian hall" was rebuilt in the early Qing Dynasty, Emperor Qianlong wrote a gold plaque of Bainian personally. In order to warn Zhang's descendants that Pepsi could be tolerated, he added a little more. When asked why there were more words for forbearance, Emperor Qianlong said with a smile that it was more tolerant to insert two knives in his heart? Therefore, the word "Ren" is still popular today. As the saying goes: forbearance is the spirit of adults, forbearance is the foundation of gentlemen, can endure the summer is not hot, can endure the winter is not cold, can endure the poor to become rich, can endure the long life.

There are many popular legends about Bainen hall.
