Simenqian town

Simenqian Town, located in the northwest of longhui County, is the political, economic and cultural center of longhui in history. Therefore, in Longhui, there are eight capitals, one of which is located in front of the gate of the division, which is called longhui division in the old time. Therefore, in front of the gate of the division, there is a real longhui. It is 63 km away from the county, with a total area of 166.8 square kilometers and a population of 59877 (2017). In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it was the first capital of the eight capitals of longhui. Before liberation, longhui Township Office was set up. After the founding of new China, it was the third district of longhui County. Later, it was changed into simenqian district. In 1995, it was withdrawn and merged into simenqian town (governing the former simenqian Town, Jintan Township and Shiqiaopu township), which happened to be the main central area of the first capital of longhui. The town government is located in the former district office, 63 kilometers south of the county. According to the records of Jiaqing unified annals of the Qing Dynasty, "in the fifth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1372 A.D.), longhui inspection department was set up" (equivalent to the current county government). The current town government (the original residence of Ruimu) is just in front of longhui's Yamen in that year, so the town is called simenqian.

Simenqian town is a famous "national civilized town" and "hometown of Weiyuan" - hometown of Weiyuan, a famous thinker and historian in modern times

Historical evolution

The period of feudal dynasty

In the past, the political and cultural center of longhui was in front of Simen, so in front of Simen, zhenlonghui was also. This is not an affectation, but has its widely spread historical origin

Before Tang Dynasty, Yu Dynasty, Xia Dynasty, Shang Dynasty and Zhou Dynasty, there was a Zen master named Shoufu grandfather who came to lookout Yunshan in order to find Buddha's land. When I first came here, I thought the scenery here was elegant. When I look around, I can see the cloud mountain in Wugang in the southwest, which is named Wangyun mountain. If I want to settle on the top of the mountain, I call it Dingshan hall. Once, when he went down the mountain from ma'anjie and went to Baoqing by the bridge, a living dragon followed him. On the way, grandfather Shoufu found out and refused to let him go. He immediately hit the living dragon back with his cane. The dragon's long body lies behind the Wangyun mountain. The dragon's head extends to the golden plate shovel gate of Jintan to lock the living dragon, and names this wide hilly area "longhui". Also granted said: "let the world drought, here half harvest, let the world chaos, here never worry." Originally, grandfather Shoufu planned to practice Taoism at the top of the mountain for a long time, but the food had to be carried up from the foot of the mountain more than ten miles away, which was quite difficult. So he cast a spell to flatten the uneven mountain in front of the house and open a paddy field to grow grain. One night, there was a sudden rainstorm, and the flood rose higher and higher. The Dragon came out of the cave, and the Dragon took advantage of the water, which threatened to devour the house. Some monks were afraid of being washed away by the flood, so they immediately beat drums and bells. The flood soon subsided, and the paddy field did not open, leaving only a large flat. Later generations named it "yewengping", which became a historic site. Later, when grandfather Shoufu looked around the top of the mountain, he looked up and down, forward and back, left and right. He thought it was not in all directions, but only in three directions. He thought it was not a place for self-cultivation, so he rolled up his luggage and left. The local people couldn't keep it. So he sent a footman to escort him to Jinzhou, Guangxi. After he left Wangyun mountain, grandfather Shoufu looked back at the top of the mountain It's the holy land of Baoshan in all directions, but I suddenly realized that I had forgotten the one on the back of myself. Knowing that he didn't have the fortune to stop practicing Zhenxian here, he had to "go out of Wutai but not enter Wutai" and look for the famous mountain again. In order to repay longhui, Shoufu sent his Porter back on the way and gave him a paper bag. He repeatedly told him that he must go back to longhui to open it. When he turned around, the porter stayed in Longtan at night. Ignoring Shoufu's instructions, he couldn't wait to see Shoufu's gift. He opened it and saw that it was a bag of feces. He thought it was useless and threw it in Longtan's field The fragrance is strong and can be heard from far and near. The porter regretted and left the paper behind. The land in Longtan is very fertile, so no fertilizer is needed for farming. When the porter returned to Yidu, he left the wrapping paper in Jintan. He saw the golden light everywhere. Later, gold was everywhere from Jinshan to Shiqiaopu, in front of the gate, and in Jintan. This is the great kindness of Shoufu grandfather, which benefits Longtan longhui.

There is no textual research on which dynasty Shoufu was.

I don't know how many years later, after Qin Shihuang unified China, he became emperor and wanted to live forever. So he sent people to the famous mountains and holy places all over the country to look for the elixir of immortality. Lu Sheng, an important minister, came to Wangyun mountain and lived in seclusion because he failed to find the elixir. It is said that later Lu Sheng ate Xiancao (actually heartbroken grass) and ascended the fairyland. Local people built temples on the mountain, known as "Lu Gongzhen Fairy". If you ask for sunshine, it will be sunny; if you ask for rain, it will be rainy; if you are brave, you will show your response. So far, there are many cigarettes and you can't stop worshiping. Looking back to history, it was the place of ancient Jingzhou before the Zhou Dynasty and Chu during the spring and Autumn period and Warring States period. In the Qin Dynasty after 219 BC, it was under the jurisdiction of Changsha County; in the Han Dynasty after 206 BC, it was under the jurisdiction of Lingling county and Zhaoling County; in the three kingdoms after 220 AD and the Jin Dynasty, it was under the jurisdiction of Zhaoling County; after 581 ad, it was under the jurisdiction of Shaoyang County of Baoqing Prefecture during the Sui, Tang, song, yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, including 1372 ad in the fifth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty The "longhui inspection division" was established here, which is called "longhui division" for short. The Division has a capital and a regiment under it. For example, Zhao, Liu, long and Wei in the capital are called four regiments, and now the zhongtuan in yanggu'ao still uses the ancient name. The so-called "eight capitals of longhui" came into being. Because the Si yamen is located here, it takes "in front of the Si yamen" as the place name.

There are a few ballads: one tube root line, two tube fan, three tube Cuan, four tube piece, five tube around. The jurisdiction of Badu is as follows: the first capital governs simenqian, Jintan, Shiqiaopu, sunjialong and xiaoshajiang; the second capital governs huangjinjing, Tuqiao, Gaozhou and weixilong; the third capital governs yanggu'ao, hanjiapu, kuangjiapu, tianjialong, caijialong and jiangjialong; the fourth capital governs niaoshuxia, shuidapu, qianguao and shilishan; the fifth capital governs sujiadong, dashuitian and Tongshan Muxi, Xishan, Dadongshan, Maping, south of tongmuqiao, Bishan, Southeast of zengjiaao, Chengshui, tongpenjiang, etc.; Liudu governs liuduzhai, Dingshan, Hetian, Meitang, Jiulongshan, changjuan, north of maopu, etc.; Qidu governs Yankou, Sutang, Matoushan, Tianbi, east of maopu, Tangshi, Tantou, northwest of Zhouwang, etc.; baduyushan, Changfu, Gaofu, etc North of taohuaping, shuangjiangqiao, middle and north of Shimen, middle and north of taohuaping, etc. According to the economic characteristics, there is a catchphrase: "Yidu luowu, Erdu Luogu, Sandu luoliang, Sidu luozhu, Wudu luopaishu, Liudu Luobu, Qidu Badu Guanchu". Since the 12th year of Daoguang in the Qing Dynasty, there has been the name of "Longzhong town" in front of Si men.

Therefore, the title of "in front of the gate of the first capital of longhui on the North Road of Shaoyang County, Baoqing Prefecture, Hunan Province" has a history of more than 500 years. In front of the gate has always been in Shaobei's political, economic and cultural center. It is called "the crown of Wei Jia Duan, the ticket in front of Si men, the economic activity, the shelf of Sun Jia long, and the stick of stone bridge".

Before liberation

After the founding of the Republic of China in 1911, there were districts below the county level, and the administrative system of "the 31st District of Shaoyang County" and "the 9th District of Shaoyang County" was established in front of the Department. In the middle and late period of the Republic of China, the township Baojia system was established, and the longhui department was divided into "eight townships and one town", that is, in front of the resident Department of longhui Township, there were 13 Baojia, including xiaoshajiang, Maoao, Longping and matangshan Tuqiao has 12 baos; shuidapu in Longzhi township has 12 baos; chaoyangpu in Zhonghe township has 20 baos; hexiangqiao in xishuo township has 13 baos; Tantou in Guosheng township has 19 baos; zhouwangpu in Lishu township has 12 baos; yushanpu in Baohe township has 12 baos; Taohong town has 8 baos.

After the victory of the Anti Japanese war in 1945, eight townships and one town of longhui organized a petition to establish a county. On January 31, 1947, the central executive yuan of the Kuomintang approved the establishment of longhui County. Liu's ancestral hall in liuduzhai and Li's calyx were the first county magistrate. From then on, longhui township was changed into Xinglong Township. The township office is still located in the Yamen of the former inspection department, with about one platoon of troops. On the yamen gate, there is a Hemian street, which is called "Dajie" in history. On the left side, there are Yuefei temple, police station, Tianliang, taxation, salt administration and other units. On the right side, there is a Hemian street, which is called "caiguantian Street" in history,
