Experience of research-based learning of Qingyuan's history and culture

The combination of "Qingyuan" first appeared in the Jin Dynasty, meaning Qingming and Guangyuan. Wang Dao Biography of the Book of Jin says, "If you guide less, you will know better. "Qingyuan, as the name of the administrative region, first appeared in our city. It has been in use for six years (507 years) in South Tian Liang Prison, which has exceeded 1500 years. There are three stages in the evolution of Zhongjing: Qingyuan County was established in Liang Wudi, and Qingyuan was known to the world as the administrative area of the county; In the 10th year of Emperor Kai of Sui Dynasty (590), Qingyuan County was abandoned, and the name of Qingyuan was demoted to nearly 1400 years. Qingyuan city was built in 1988, and the name of Qingyuan was upgraded. Now the newly-built Qingyuan City has reached the year of "weak crown" and is a vibrant young prefecture-level city.

It is worth noting that although Suzhong County appeared more than 600 years earlier than Qingyuan County, it was not used as the county name when it was set up, but its county name was kept as one of the counties in Qingyuan County (the jurisdiction was greatly reduced); When the Sui Dynasty abolished Qingyuan County, the old Suzhong County was replaced by the newly established Qingyuan County and disappeared from history. At that time, there was another Zhengbin County in qingyuan county, which coexisted with the newly established qingyuan county, but it disappeared forever after 33 years. This intriguing historical change shows that the world has a special liking for the name Qingyuan. Unfortunately, such a popular name has never been deciphered, so that future generations know it but don't know why. After studying here for many years, Yu Qian realized that the name of Qingyuan originated from water. Water, Beijiang also.

Naming after water is a common naming technique for ancient He Lin counties, such as Qujiang, Wengyuan, Sanshui and Sihui, and Mianyang and Han Yan in our city. Qingyuan County, formerly known as Suzhong County, was named after Beijiang River. This edition of Qingyuan County Records quotes a historical legend: During the second day, May and August of the Han Dynasty, the tide rose to the fishing gorge (now Feilaixia) and returned to Wuyang City overnight, so Feilaixia was also called the gorge. The name "Suzhong" comes from the high tide and belongs to the place name of water regime. This is the water regime of Beijiang River under certain circumstances, and it is also the water regime of Beijiang River under abnormal circumstances. Under normal circumstances, Beijiang River is a river with abundant water and clear water quality.

Beijiang River was called Qinshui in ancient times. This name appeared in the Han Dynasty and became popular in the Tang and Song Dynasties. The history books of Tang and Song Dynasties all take Qinshui as the name of Beijiang River. Many people are famous for "Qin", which means that Beijiang River is rich in resources and belongs to the name of water river. This name is consistent with reality. According to the Comprehensive Scientific Investigation Report of Shaoguan City, Guangdong Province (published by Guangdong Science and Technology Publishing House, 1987), the total runoff of Beijiang River system is 312.85 million cubic meters, the average annual runoff depth is 1023 mm, and the per capita runoff is 7426 cubic meters, which is 2. 1 times that of the whole province and the whole country respectively. However, it is still lower than the national average. If the water consumption per mu of cultivated land is calculated, Shaoguan has the highest figure, reaching 8323 cubic meters, which is 2.2 times, 4.8 times and 3.6 times of the provincial, national and world average respectively. "It can be seen that the Beijiang River is quite abundant in water.

Beijiang River is not only rich in water, but also clean in water quality, because the upper reaches are mostly rocky mountain canyons, with lush trees on both sides and less sediment entering the river. The hymn about the good water quality of Beijiang River, which has been handed down to this day, can be a vivid witness. "The bottom of the cliff is clear and the cliff is dangerous" is the earliest poem to praise the cool water quality of Feilaixia. Author Jiang has always enjoyed a good reputation during the Liang and Chen Dynasties in the Southern Dynasties. The poem I saw in the Tang and Song Dynasties is: "The two peaks support Bihan, and one water embraces Wan Qing. The old dragon is still there, and the waves are still there "(Tang Quanqi's Summer Mountain); "Always willing to win the couple, Qingjiang takes the ferry cup" (Hao's Baolin Temple); "The door is not closed, and the moon is empty in the water" (Tang Yangheng's "The Temple under the Body"); "Chengjiang is in the bend gorge, far away from the original boat" (Zhang Song Dexiang's "Xiashan Feilai Temple"); "The ancient temple is on the Qingjiang River, and the Victoria boat is before sunset" (Xiashan, a famous monk in the Song Dynasty); "Clouds and water still shine, birds go west to the east" (Song Xiang Ziyin's "Xiashan Feilai Temple") and so on. There are more in Ming and Qing dynasties, so I won't go into details in this article. In the above poems, words such as "Qing" and "Cheng" are often used to describe the water of Beijiang River, which is pure and free from impurities. Clear is clear. It can be seen that the water quality of Beijiang River has long enjoyed a high reputation.

After leaving Feilaixia, the Beijiang River flows southwest through Lunzhou Island in the center of the mainland, then turns northwest, turns east and west through Qingcheng, and then slowly flows southwest. The terrain south of Feilaixia is flat, and the Beijiang River flows into this place slowly, and the river is crystal clear. The weather is "the mountains are flat and the rivers are winding in the wilderness". If you climb up the river and have a look, you will naturally feel like "going into the sea at one drop" (Xiashan Temple by Tang Li 'ao). The ancestors of Qingcheng in Nanliang period felt the same way, so we can link the words "Qing" and "Yuan", which coincides with the location of the county, so it is very reasonable to name it "Qingyuan". This name combines water quality and water flow direction, which is very poetic. Fortunately, I finally realized the mystery: Qingyuan is the Qingjiang River that flows far away!

Finally, by the way, this is my own opinion, which is not necessarily accurate. Why did Qingyuan get its name? I hope interested people can participate in the discussion and express their views. It's unfortunate if you can get access to the knowledge of * * * through discussion!
