Taicang, also known as Loudong. With a long history, prosperous economy and splendid culture, she enjoys the reputation of "Golden Taicang" in the south of the Yangtze River and is known as "paradise on earth". Taicang is located on the coast of the East China Sea and at the mouth of the Yangtze River. Rivers criss-crossing the territory, fields alternating with green and yellow, and mild and humid climate are the cradles of Taicang ancient civilization. According to historical records and archaeological discoveries since the founding of the People's Republic of China, as early as two or three thousand years ago, our ancestors worked, lived and multiplied here, creating a splendid culture of fish and rice. According to legend, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Chu Jun, King of Wu, built a warehouse here to worship heaven, which may be the origin of Taicang's place name. Taicang is a "land rich in the southeast" and a "good port under the world". It was the Yuan Dynasty that laid this cornerstone. In Yuan Dynasty, Taicang not only set up a base city, but also became a coastal defense outpost along the southeast coast of China. More importantly, the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty developed grain transportation, strengthened economic exchanges between the North and the South, expanded foreign trade at sea, and accelerated the circulation of agricultural and sideline products, aquatic products and handicrafts in Taicang and the opening up of the economy. In less than a hundred years, Taicang has become "a thousand ships with high masts." With the prosperity of economy and the rapid increase of population, it has completed a leap from a coastal market town to a port city with "Zhumenfu, invincible memory, the Kremlin and Panyu, and a row of scales". The formation of the port city has planted various cultural genes for Taicang. For the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Yongle was a world-renowned friendly country. He sent Zheng He to the Western Seas from Liujiagang in Taicang for seven times, which accumulated pioneering spiritual wealth for Taicang. Taicang, located at the intersection of rivers and seas, has experienced many large-scale collisions between mainland culture and marine culture. Therefore, as early as the middle of the Ming Dynasty, a diversified economic pattern of agriculture, fishery, industry and commerce had been formed. The commodity economy is relatively developed and the society is unprecedentedly prosperous. At the same time, it also cultivated the humanistic spirit of giving consideration to justice and benefit, innovation and pragmatism. Taicang is not only a "land of water and ships" and a "commodity area", but also a place where people gather. The prosperous economy and generous and extroverted folk customs have attracted countless talents from all over the world to gather here. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Taicang's culture became active with the development of economy. Under the active advocacy and personal practice of Confucian sages and people with lofty ideals who have lived in Taicang for a long time, dozens of famous figures have emerged in the fields of Confucian classics, literature and art, science and technology. For example, Wang Xijue and Elvis Presley, their grandparents and grandchildren are ambitious and loyal prime ministers; Lu Shiyi, a great thinker; Zhang Pu, leader of the complex society; Anti-Japanese generals Xiong Yi and Ren Huan; Wu Zhong, a water conservancy expert; Wang Shizhen, a talented and unique literary world; Great poet Wu Meicun; Chou Ying, one of the great painters in Ming Sijia; Wang Shimin, Wang Jian and Wang, outstanding pioneers of Loudong Painting School in the Qing Dynasty for 300 years; Wei Liangfu, founder of Kunqu Opera and traditional opera musician; Scholars and moral historians Bi Yuan and Chen Hu; Educator Lu Baozhong and Tang; Yu Jianhua, the pioneer of the democratic revolution; There are also sculptor Lu Zigang, who is good at nature and enjoys a good reputation in the ruling and opposition, as well as famous teachers in smelting, manufacturing, navigation, geography, medicine and gardening. Today, in this ancient land of Taicang, many of their precious cultural relics are still preserved, and many anecdotes are circulating, stretching their excellent traditions.

Nanyuan

Nanyuan Garden was built in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, and was built by Wang Wensu, the prime minister at that time, covering an area of more than 30 mu. There are mainly "repairing schools", "exploring shadows" and "fragrant peach pavilion", which are the places where Prime Minister Wang handled government affairs and planted plums and chrysanthemums. Taicang folk also call Nanyuan "Taishifu". In the early Qing Dynasty, Wang Shimin, the grandson of Wen Su, cooperated with Zhang Nanyuan, a master of Dieshan. There are two peaks, named "Mao Yun" and "Shi Er", which were moved from "Yishan Garden". It was abandoned during the dry period, rebuilt during Jiaqing and Daoguang years, restored during Tongzhi years, and then gradually dilapidated, and Japan's invasion of China was once again destroyed. 1998, with the help of the Provincial Cultural Management Committee and Suzhou Municipal Bureau of Landscape Architecture, the design and planning were carried out according to the original photos and drawings, and the restoration was gradually carried out. Up to now, the gatehouse, embroidered Tang Xue, Xiang Tao Pavilion, Dahuangge Pavilion, Meixian Pavilion, Hanbifang, Tanyingxuan and Promenade have been restored 18 scenic spots. The city's forests, green leaves and red flowers, clear springs and stones have surpassed self and material desires-the harmony between man and nature. The ideal living environment pursued by the ancients is an eternal subject of human development, and eternity is the most valuable.

East China sea dilemma

According to the local records of Taicang, there is a tablet in the Old South Garden, which was inscribed by the calligrapher Wang of the Ming Dynasty. It was written by Wang Shizhen and Wang Shimao. There are also inscriptions by Zhang Xinyang and Zhang Cai. Deng Zhi, the king of tea, was a writer and calligrapher from Jiajing to Wanli in Ming Dynasty. He is about the same age as Wang Shizhen and Wang Shimao, but he lives longer than them. Both Zhang Pu and Wang are later than Wang, so we can conclude that the East China Sea dilemma refers to Wang Shizhen and Wang Shimao. In Liu Yiqing's Shi Shuo Xin Yu, the word "He is my brother" wrote "Dilemma". The original meaning means that the two brothers have good moral character and are difficult to compete with. "East China Sea Dilemma" is a eulogy and praise to Wang Shizhen and Wang Shimao, both of whom have their own literary talents, achievements and strengths.

In the martial arts exam, he was not appreciated by the examiner twice, so he had to give up. During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, the practice of playing the piano in Taicang became more and more popular. In order to relieve boredom, Xu Shangying abandoned Wu Xueqin, first worshipped Chen Xingyuan, the son of Chen, a famous pianist in Taicang, as a teacher, and then studied under Zhang Weichuan, a disciple of Chen. In order to go further, he worshipped Changshu as a teacher to learn piano strictly. Thanks to the guidance of famous teachers, his piano skills have made great progress. Later, he and Chen Xingyuan, Chen Yudao, [] Zhuang Le and others formed the Qinchuan Qinshe, which was called "Yushan Qinpai" in history. Xu Shangying is the author of The Rhubarb Pavilion, The Musical Situation in the Western Hills and The Feng Wan Pavilion. On the basis of summing up Yan Zheng's "Qing, Wei, Dan, Yuan", he learned from others' strong points and found a new way, and put forward the aesthetic thought of "harmony, quietness, Qing, Yuan, antiquity, connection, heaven, elegance, beauty, brightness, talent, economy, embellishment, roundness, firmness, grandeur and refinement". In order to commemorate the Ming Dynasty Guqin master, Taicang Municipal Government built Dahuangge Guqin Pavilion in the process of restoring the South Garden, which is the first Guqin Pavilion in China at present. The building area of the museum is over 800 square meters, and the main building has two floors. In addition to the main hall, there are four piano rooms, which follow the traditional names of Wuzhizhai, Yuguzhai, Xilutang and Chuncaotang.

"Gu Xiang is shoulder-length, the ancient street is three miles long, the ancient bridge is single-hole, the ancient houses are all beams, every family has carved flowers, every household has a working window, the bridge enters from the front door, and the boat swings in front of the door." Shaxi town is a thousand-year-old town in Taicang City, Jiangsu Province, which is located next to National Highway 204 and west of the central part of Taicang City. As early as the Song and Yuan Dynasties, the town was a market. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, dignitaries, businessmen and ordinary people built houses along the banks of the old Qipu River, gradually forming Henan Street and Hebei Street which meandered for several miles. According to the historical records: "The town stretches for miles, and there are many wealthy families and huge rooms. His bachelor's degree is half of the state, and he is a masterpiece of scholars. He learns etiquette concepts and covers everything, while people who work in the wild are also diligent in using money, and there is a wind of replacing sandalwood with crickets, which is called paradise. " During the Republic of China, it was still a huge town, commonly known as "18 townships in the southeast and the first township in Shaxi." The most striking feature of the ancient town is the well-preserved waterfront residential buildings built along the Qipu River. In order to facilitate their life by the water, the residents here have a shed, a stone bridge and a wooden bridge with windows, overlooking the river and pumping water for shopping, forming a unique landscape. These houses are uneven. Almost half of the buildings facing the water from door to door extend to the river, with the water pavilion above facing the sky and the stone pillars below supporting it. The river port and wharf are located under the water pavilion, which is very clever. This is the real "pillow water family". There are many ancient houses in the ancient town, such as Yinxi Bookstore, Nanman Zhai Ju and Lianxin Building, which are full of humanistic atmosphere. During the Qianlong period of Qing Dynasty, the mansion of Gong, a wealthy businessman, was full of carved beams and painted buildings. The beams were covered with moire patterns and covered with flowers. Exquisite relief and exquisite carving are a must in the south of the Yangtze River and have been well preserved so far.

The antique old shop stands on the street, the yellow flag flutters in the wind, and the gates of the small bridges and flowing water in the Ming and Qing Dynasties flash from time to time, which makes people suddenly dream. Walking, I went to Olive Island. This is a unique artificial island in the ancient town of Jiangnan. Three ancient bridges in Ming and Qing Dynasties span between the island and the ancient town. The island is surrounded by trees and bamboos, which makes people feel sad and feel like returning to nature in an instant.

Kunqu opera

Kunqu Opera originated from Taicang South Wharf (also known as Nanguan, now Nanjiao Town). Kunqu Opera is a wonderful flower in the garden of art, and Chun Xue in China traditional opera has always been favored by literati. According to local records, Taicang South Wharf was a very prosperous wharf in Yuan and Ming Dynasties, where southerners and northerners lived together, and the southern accent and northern tunes influenced each other. During the reign of Jiajing and Qin Long in the Ming Dynasty, Wei Liangfu, who lived in the South Pier for a long time, improved his local accent and created a very elegant and gorgeous new accent, which was called Kunqu Opera and Kunqu Opera. From the folk to the stage, Kunqu opera began with the "Huansha Ji" written by Liang Bolong in Kunshan. Wu Meicun, a great poet in Taicang in the early Qing Dynasty, said, "Li Ren plays Wei Liangfu, Gao Shi writes lyrics for Liang Bolong". Due to the successful performance of "Huansha Ji", the reputation of Kunqu Opera is growing. Scholar-officials all regard listening and learning Kunqu opera as elegant things.

Up to now, people in Taicang can still collect Kunqu Opera Palace Pool Spectrum, which to some extent reflects the popularity of Kunqu Opera in Taicang and the contribution and feelings of Taicang people to Kunqu Opera.

Wei Liangfu

Wei Liangfu (date of birth and death unknown) was a Chinese opera musician in Ming Dynasty and the originator of Kunqu Opera. The word "Shangquan" originated from Zhang Yu, Jiangxi (now Nanchang), and later moved to Taicang South Wharf (now Nanjiao Town). Wei Liangfu is familiar with this melody, and he is a beginner in northern music. Because he is not as good as the northerner king, he studies southern music. Yiyang dialect is popular in his hometown, but he hates Yiyang. In order to change his artistic environment, he came to Taicang, where Southern Opera and Northern Opera were very active at that time, and lived in Taicang South Pier during Jiajing period (1522-1565). In the local garrison, many people are familiar with melody, and Wei Liangfu often learns skills and discusses music theory with them. At this time, he met an expert of Nanqu, a resident of Taicang, and asked him for advice. He won't give up until he thinks he is satisfied with music every time. He also invited Zhang Tangye, a playwright of Shanxian Suo and Beiqu Opera who was sent to Taicang from Shouzhou, Anhui Province. At that time, Zhang was serving in the army and readily accepted Wei Yan's suggestion. They became close friends. Later, I betrothed my daughter to Zhang.
