The meaning of "ye"? A brief history of yecheng?

During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the Central Plains was one of the rich and prosperous metropolises. After Zhao, the Eastern Wei Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty successively established their capitals here, and Cao Cao took this place as the political center of the North during the Wei Dynasty. There are two cities in Yeben. The north city is an extension of the old city of Cao Wei, which is seven miles from east to west and five miles from north to south. Located in the north of Zhangshui, there are ice wells, Tongquetai and Jinfengtai in the northwest corner of the city from north to south. In modern times, Zhangshui moved south, and most of its sites were in the north of Zhangshui, namely, Ye Zhen in the southwest of Linzhang County, Hebei Province and Santai Village in Yidong. Cheng Nan was built in the early years of the Eastern Wei Dynasty. In the south of Zhangshui today, it is six miles from east to west and sixty paces from north to south, which is bigger than the north city. It is in today's Anyang County, Henan Province.

Yeyuan was originally the ruling center of Hebei Plain in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Before and after Hanbok and Yuan Shao, this is the national pasture. In the ninth year of Jian 'an (204), Cao Cao broke Yuan's remnants in Yecheng, taking charge of animal husbandry in Jizhou, that is, taking Ye as the place to govern Hebei. Then Prime Minister Gong Wei and Wang Wei. Since then, the nominal capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty is Xu (now Henan), and the actual political center is Yecheng, the capital of Wei.

Cao Pi moved to Luoyang after the establishment of Wei State in the Han Dynasty, and Ye has long been a big commercial and military city in the north. In Huang Chu's second year in Wei Wendi (22 1), Guangping (now southeast of Jize, Hebei Province), Yangping (now Daming East, Hebei Province) and Wei (where he ruled) were "three Wei"; At the same time, Chang 'an (the old capital of the Western Han Dynasty), Qiaocheng (the capital city of Wei Dynasty), Xuchang (the old capital of Han Dynasty), Ye and Luoyang are collectively called "five capitals", which shows the importance of Ye.

During the Sixteen Kingdoms Period, Shi Hu, the late Zhao Dynasty, moved his capital to Yecheng from Guo Xiang (now southwest of Xingtai, Hebei Province) and changed the Prefecture to Yin Wei. Since then, Ran Min, a Han Chinese, has established the State of Wei, which is also here. The former Yan Murong family was destroyed, and its capital was originally in Hebei (now Beijing) and later moved to Ye. Before Qin Fu Jian used Wang Meng as Jizhou's shepherd and lived in Yeh. Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty established Xiangzhou, which was ruled by Ye. In the first year of Tian Ping in the Eastern Wei Dynasty (534), Gao Huan entered Luoyang to honor the emperor and moved the capital to Cao Zhen. Beiqi also established its capital here and changed Yin Wei to Qing Yin. In the sixth year of Jiande in the Northern Zhou Dynasty (577), the Northern Qi Dynasty was destroyed and changed to Wei County in Xiangzhou. In the second year of Emperor Jing of Zhou (580), Emperor Wendi of Sui tried to take Zhou's place, and Wei Chijiong, the general manager of Xiangzhou, fought against Ye, but failed. Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty burned Yecheng, and the Millennium name was reduced to ruins.

Yecheng site is located on the bank of Zhanghe River in Linzhang County, which is18km north of Anyang City, Henan Province. It is an important ancient capital site and one of the main contents of Yinye culture.

1979 12 was announced as a cultural relics protection unit in Linzhang county. On July 23rd 1982, Hebei Provincial People's Government announced it as a cultural relic protection unit in Hebei Province. 1988 65438+ 10, which was announced by the State Council as a national key cultural relics protection unit on October 5th.

After the demise of the Shang Kingdom in the 1 1 century BC, it rose again and became the political, economic and cultural center of China 500 years ago. From the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, after the Jin Dynasty, the Sixteen States and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, six dynasties, namely Cao Wei, Hou Zhao, Yan Qian, Eastern Wei and Northern Qi, successively established their capitals here, with a capital establishment time of 65,438 0.26 years. In 580 AD, Yecheng was destroyed, and then Xiangzhou, Wei Jun and Yexian moved south to Anyang, also known as Yecheng.

Yecheng was first built in the Spring and Autumn Period and is said to have been built by Qi Huangong. In 439 BC, Wei Wenhou named Yecheng the capital of Wei. Since then, Yecheng has gradually become the capital of Houdu, Wang Du and Guodu.

During the Warring States Period, Ximen Bao was an imperial edict. The story of his ruling rivers and casting witches is almost known to women and children. When Cao Wei built Yecheng in the north, it was 7 miles long from east to west and 5 miles long from north to south. There are seven gates in the outer city and four gates in the inner city. Cao Cao also built three famous platforms according to the city wall, namely Jinfeng Terrace, Tongque Terrace and Bingjing Terrace. Cao Cao's father and son feasted and composed poems here, creating the famous Three Caos and Seven Sons, which left the reputation of "Jian 'an Style" for later generations, and was a much-told story in the history of China literature.

Southern Yecheng was built in the Eastern Wei Dynasty, with a length of 6 miles from east to west and 8 miles from north to south, with steps 18. Many luxurious buildings have been built, such as Taijitang, Zhaoyang Hall and Xiandu Garden.

Gao Huan, the Lord of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, who sang "The sky is vast and wild", not only built balconies and temples here, but also placed a robot that can play instrumental music by itself, leaving an immortal talk.

During this period, the rulers especially advocated Buddhism and spared no effort to build Buddhist cave temples, leaving us many immortal cultural relics, such as Lingquan Temple, Wanfo Valley, Beiqi Grottoes, Xiangtangshan Grottoes and Honggu Temple Scenic Area. Some of them are closely related to the famous Shaolin Temple.

Yecheng Museum will reproduce the elegance of the ancient capital.

Handan Electric (correspondent Yang, reporter) Recently, the reporter learned from the relevant departments of Linzhang County, Handan City, Hebei Province that the county will start construction of the Yecheng Museum this year. After the museum is completed, people can get a glimpse of the architecture and social life of Yecheng in those days.

Linzhang was called "Ye" in ancient times and has the reputation of "the hometown of the Three Kingdoms and the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties".

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao, occupied Yecheng, and established the capital as the king's capital. Yecheng was once the capital of Cao Wei, Hou Zhao, Wei Ran, Yan Qian, Eastern Wei and Northern Qi Dynasties, and has been the political, economic, military and cultural center of the Yellow River Basin for four centuries. Many well-known idioms and allusions in the long river of China culture, such as Moon Hee's return to the Han Dynasty, Cao Chong's image, cooking beans and burning beans, all come from Yecheng, so Yecheng is known as the "step of Central Plains culture". Ye Group, headed by "Three Caos" (Cao Cao, Cao Pi and Cao Zhi), also created and prospered Jian 'an literature, occupying an important position in the history of China literature.

The county will entrust China Institute of Cultural Relics to compile four detailed plans: Santai Site Protection Area, Yecheng Underground Hidden City Gate Site Protection Area, Zhumingmen Site Protection Area and Imperial Temple Protection Area. Build key protection facilities such as "one city", "three parks" and "two museums". "One city", that is, relying on the implementation of the "Yecheng Site Protection Master Plan", the Yecheng Site Protection Zone will be built; "Three Gardens", namely Tongque Santai Garden, Nixinzhuang Palace Garden and Zhumingmen Ruins Garden; "Two museums", namely Yecheng Museum and Jian 'an Literature Museum. With the gradual completion of these protection facilities, the Yecheng site will gradually reveal its "true content".
