Entering a Famous Historical and Cultural Village —— Protecting Li Village

2065438+On August 22nd, 2009, at the invitation of the author Li and Mr. Ai, the stationmaster of Changgou Town Cultural Station in rencheng district, Jining City, the author walked into the famous historical and cultural village-Licun. We * * * walked through the streets together, went deep into people's homes, stepped into ancestral temples, experienced what we saw and heard in the fiery progress of building a new socialist countryside on the spot, and crossed historical time and space.

Li Cun, the escort, is located 3.5 kilometers southwest of the government residence in Changgou Town, rencheng district, Jining City, Shandong Province, on the south side of the Ji Liang Canal. There are 429 households in the village, 1 474 people, and 78 individual and private enterprises. There are 18 surnames in the village, including Wang, Liu, Lu, Yang, Zhang, Xiao, Shen, Ma, Fang, Shang, Fan, Lu, Cheng, Yuan, Jiang, Hou, Wu and Li. It is said that Wang, Liu, Lu, Yang and Lu were all residents of the Ming Dynasty. Now Li and Wu are the most popular surnames in the village.

According to the fifteenth year of the Republic of China (A.D. 1926), "Li Jia Villa in Dachanggou, Jinyun Township" is the village.

In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, there was a general named Li Qing, who was commended for his meritorious escort. Yongle Zhong came here to settle down, so he escorted Li in the name of Zhai.

In the Qing dynasty, it was built on the mountain and renamed Lijia Mountain Villa. By the end of the Qing Dynasty, Li Ji had lived in Zude Zonggong, and the name Licun was still restored, which is still in use today. There is a poem (escort Li) cloud:

Li Fuhao, Minister of Wumen, Longshan Hanlin Saber.

Wu luebao's driving skills, Wu and Li are both in the DPRK.

Li's descendants praised this poem:

Ancestor's guard was seriously injured and could not accompany the emperor.

Give local medical care by decree and grant land to build hometown.

Since then, the Li family has flourished, and the mountains are full of fruits and mulberry trees.

Future generations must never forget to build ancestral temples and celebrate forever.

According to the introduction of the Li clan, the hydrological pulse of Shan Li was quite famous in Dachanggou in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. At that time, there was a big turtle mountain in the northeast, a small turtle mountain in the southeast, and a snake mound between the two mountains, forming a wonderful landscape of "two turtles holding a snake". The snake mountain winds to the south, and the veins are divided into two directions. Looking at the Jade Emperor Top of Laoshan Mountain in the southeast, it passes through Zhaowangtang Village in the southwest, showing the shape of a dragon arch and a snake. Xiao Guishan craned his neck and faced an old well. They all say, "look at the well to quench your thirst."

There are several ancient stone pagodas of the Northern Song Dynasty in the southwest corner of Yuhuang Temple, and the ancient pagodas stand tall. Because the ancient pagoda is hollow, the echo waves when calling to it, so people call it "echo tower".

There is an east-west big gourd ditch in the southeast of the village, which collects water from the small gourd ditch in front of Huang Yu Temple and the south gourd ditch in Laoguoshan. The ditch is wide and deep, winding westward through the south of the village and flowing into the Xihe River in the village. There are two water rings in the west of Licun, and a gourd ditch in the south of Licun. This ditch comes from Kangmiao Village at the northern foot of Guishan Mountain, running northeast and southwest, passing through the village, entering Lijiakeng from the south of Lujiananlin and connecting with Wu Jia Pit. Then, after meeting with two gourd ditches in the south of the village, the soldiers split into three roads and merged into the river in the southwest. There is a small river in the west of Licun, which is the Shunshui River in the west of Kangmiao Village. It is also called Xihe River in Licun. There is a small slope on the west side of the river, and there is an ancient place name "Great Monument" on the west side.

To the east of Licun, there are three ancient almond trees, an ancient peach garden and an ancient persimmon garden. There are contiguous hilly terraces here, and the village is dotted with some vegetable gardens.

In ancient times, the southwest escorting Li Village was a "five-water spiral land". Two Hulugou waters from the east and one Hulugou water from the northeast and southwest passed through the village, and in the west of the village, they merged with the small river and the horseback river, and the five waters swirled. In ancient times, there was a bridge around Wushui Island, which was called "Wushui Bridge" for short. There is Cambridge in the northwest of the village, and there is a water slope in the west of Cambridge. At that time, Li, the escort, had beautiful scenery, beautiful flowers and beautiful scenery, which was comparable to the ink painting of Jiangnan. It was really a fairyland on earth.

In the midsummer of 20 14, the Li ancestral hall and the first Li cemetery in the east were built in the northeast of Licun.

Li cemetery couplets:

Zi Sunxiao Shi Xian Ze Chang

Gongzu Dezong has a long history.

Li's Ancestral Hall is an independent ancestral hall courtyard, facing south, surrounded by mountains and waters, dignified and elegant, simple and lively. There is a couplet embedded on the gate of the Li family ancestral hall:

The first part: Poetry, calligraphy and painting are all ancestors.

Bottom line: managing family business with diligence and diligence.

The main hall of Lee's Ancestral Hall is built in five rooms facing south. The statue of Li Qingzhu's sword in the Ming Dynasty is placed in the hall, which is solemn and majestic. On both sides of the statue, there are several inscriptions on merits in different periods.

Above the gate of the main hall of Lee's Ancestral Hall, there are four bronzing characters engraved with the words "Loyalty and Courage", which shine in the sunshine and are very eye-catching. The vertical hall couplets inlaid on both sides of the gate are neat and have far-reaching implications:

The first line of the couplet on the scroll

After many battles, the prince made great contributions.

The second line of the couplet

Zebei has passed on salaries from generation to generation and the valley has a long history.

On the east and west sides of the main hall, there are memorial corridors of clan glory, which do not forget that ancestors became rich, families became rich, donated money and materials, respected ancestors and loved their families for meritorious service, carved monuments in recognition, hung the names of temples, and kept genealogy forever to inspire future generations.

Li family style:

Trees have roots and water, so they worship their ancestors piously.

Filial piety will give you life on earth.

Harmonious hand in hand * * * bittersweet, what children and grandchildren study for.

The reputation of making contributions is obvious, and the clan is sincere and kind.

Abide by the law, keep in mind the initial heart, have high morality and strong will.

All walks of life are self-disciplined, and heaven rewards diligence.

Yuan, Henry and Zhen are closely linked, and simplicity is no better than climbing.

Accumulate knowledge, care about peace, strive for self-improvement and pursue sages.
