Zaolutai is an ancient city

At the site of CuO city in Shangqiu City (25 kilometers west of Yongcheng city), there is an oval high platform, which is shaped like a turtle's back, about 7 meters high, 54 meters long from north to South and 34 meters wide at the bottom, and the thickness of the cultural layer is 8-9 meters. The upper level is the remains of Shang Dynasty, and the lower level is the remains of Longshan Culture in Henan Province.

Now it is a key cultural relic protection unit at the provincial level.

At the end of the Qin Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and many heroes swarmed up. Xiao He decided that the Qin Dynasty would die, and that there would be brilliant people to rule the world again. Therefore, he avoided the disturbance of the world, hid himself on the grassy high platform at that time, and quietly wrote laws for the new dynasty. Later, Xiao he joined the peasant uprising led by Liu Bang and won the victory as he expected, establishing the Han Dynasty. Xiao He became the prime minister and presented to Liu Bang the laws he wrote for the new dynasty. Today's zaolutai is full of flowers and plants with pleasant scenery. Among the luxuriant forests and bamboo trees, there are statues of Xiao He. It's very lively in ancient times.

Zaolutai, also known as Dutai in ancient times, is located in the southwest of Chengzhen government. Xiaoqing is one of the eight ancient sceneries of Yongcheng. Li Bai, a great poet of the Tang Dynasty, visited here with his friends. He wrote in his poem "reminiscent of the past, visiting Qiaojun and joining the army in Yuan Dynasty": "once you meet a king at the south end of the Weiqiao bridge, you will be separated from the others in the North of juantai." It is said that Xiao He, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, made laws in this stage, so it was named zaolutai. This kind of legend does not conform to the historical facts, but Xiao He's Fengyu has a history to check. At the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty was granted meritorious officials, and Xiao He was granted the title of Yu. After Liu Bang passed through the country, he knew that the land belonged to Pei County, his hometown. That is to say, he designated the county as his own Tangmu City, so he transferred the land of Xiao He to Gucheng County of Nanyang (now Gucheng County of Hubei Province). In fact, zaolutai is an ancient cultural site. It is now an elliptical high platform. Its bottom is 54 meters long from north to south, 34 meters wide from east to west, and 7 meters high. The cultural layer is about 9 meters thick. The upper layer is the accumulation of Shang Dynasty, and the lower layer is the remains of Longshan Culture in Henan Province. In 1936, archaeologists from the Henan Provincial Institute of historical sites of the Kuomintang came to zaolutai for excavation. There are rich cultural relics here, including stone axes, bone arrows, bone cones and so on. In June 1963, the people's Committee of Henan Province announced it as the first batch of key cultural relics protection units. The legend of zaolutai: the story took place between 202 and 195 BC. Liu banggang calmed down the world and put forward the policy of "recuperation". In order to govern the country well, he ordered Han Xin to set up the military strategy and Xiao He to write a code of laws within two years. As Xiao He was old and infirm, there were rebellions in various regions, and he needed to be punished. He was busy with state affairs, so he could not spare time to make laws. In order to accomplish this task, Xiao he discussed with the emperor to recruit talented students to study and write together. There is a poor scholar named Qiu Sheng in the county town of Zhen. He had both talent and appearance. He knew astronomy and geography well, and he was well-educated. He was regarded by Xiao He as a "counselor" with a monthly salary of six taels of silver. Xiao He ordered Qiu Sheng to create a code within one year. As a result, Qiu returned to his hometown of Zhen County. Because of the noise and uneasiness of living in the street, Qiu set up a hut on a large earthen terrace about 100 meters high, two miles away from home, and wrote the law behind closed doors. Qiu Sheng's wife has to climb a hundred meter high platform to deliver food to her husband for three meals a day. No matter it's stormy, cold or hot, the good wife will deliver the food from the beginning to the end. Just in the season of peach blossom, Qiu Sheng's law book was written nine months in advance. When she was delivering food to Qiu Sheng, she happened to pass by her uncle's peach garden. She saw big and sweet peaches all over the tree, which were blown to the ground by the wind. Without telling her uncle, she picked up two peaches from the ground and wrote a code for her husband nine months in advance to celebrate. But unexpectedly, he broke the law made by his husband and was considered to have stolen the peaches he picked up in the peach garden without the master's knowledge. According to the law, he violated the "crime of stealing the law" of disobeying women's morality. She was taken back to her mother's home by her husband. After Qiu Sheng divorced his wife, he didn't tell his mother that his daughter-in-law had been divorced. His mother was very angry and asked Qiu Sheng to withdraw the letter of divorce and get her back. Qiu Sheng thinks that the laws he made have not yet been promulgated, and the law enforcers turn back. How can he govern the country well and educate others not to break the law? He believed that the law was merciless, supreme and inviolable. So Qiu Sheng didn't listen to his mother and didn't get his daughter-in-law back. Qiu Sheng's mother asked her son, "what's the crime according to your law to divorce your mother?" Unexpectedly, Qiu Sheng violated the law he wrote. According to the law he made, he committed "unfilial crime" and should commit suicide. Qiu Sheng's mother tried to find out how to deal with her son's violation of the law. Unexpectedly, Qiu Sheng's character was so rigid that she sacrificed herself for the law. After giving orders to his mother, Qiu Sheng killed himself with scissors.
