Hou Cheng's Citation Interpretation
Outside the north wall of Shenyang Forbidden City, it is also the place where 1993 discovered the site of "Houcheng". Through the research and investigation of archaeologists, the roughly outlined scope of the back city began here.
What changes have taken place in Shenyang since the city was built? When can I see people at the site of Houcheng? Yesterday, the reporter began to search for "Houyi".
Relevant experts can determine the general location of the "Houcheng" site, but the excavation work has not yet been carried out and the specific location needs to be determined. According to records, Houcheng was the starting point of Shenyang's construction, but it was limited to military stations at that time. Houcheng is a small city with four walls, each of which is several hundred meters long, and all of them are made of mud.
The site of "Houcheng" was first discovered in 1993.
Houcheng in Han Dynasty was the earliest name of Shenyang, and belonged to Liaodong County in Western Han Dynasty. Archaeologists first discovered Houcheng site in 1993. At that time, archaeologists discovered Houcheng site outside the north wall of Shenyang Forbidden City.
According to an archaeologist who visited the excavation site, the site found at that time was east-west, with a length exceeding 170 meters and a height exceeding 2 meters. According to experts' research, this is the north wall of Houcheng, which was built in the late Warring States period. There are many rope bricks on the surface, and there are many red pottery fragments with sand and coins.
The ruins of the city wall discovered in that year were not destroyed, and there were ruins of the moat next to it. Qi Shoucheng, a folklorist in Shenyang, said that Houcheng was just a simple city, which was gradually formed because of the existence of the army, and then a city was built here.
The ruins of the city wall are expected to meet people.
Through the research and investigation of archaeologists, we can roughly outline the scope of the back city-starting from the north wall of Shenyang Imperial Palace, extending southward, Zhengyang Street to Chaoyang Street, Shenyang Imperial Palace and Shenhe Public Security Bureau are all in the city. But this is only a general scope, and the specific location can only be determined through further investigation and study.
With the implementation of the renovation plan of Fangcheng, the ruins of Houcheng, which have been "sleeping" for many years, are expected to meet people in a natural and primitive state. Through the ruins of Houcheng in the big glass cover, more people can know about Shenyang 2600 years ago. According to experts, in the sites excavated that year, the soil layers changed obviously, and each soil layer changed, and these changed soil layers can show the historical changes.
Citizen's point of view: Looking forward to seeing the "Houcheng" site
Teacher Sun Xiaoyu: Shenyang is a city with profound cultural heritage. When excavating the site, we must protect the original cultural relics and hope to see more original sites and monuments.
Guide: In fact, apart from the Forbidden City and Zhang Shuai's mansion, there are many ancient buildings worth seeing in Fangcheng area. When I meet you in the ruins of Houcheng, I will definitely introduce it to my tourists as soon as possible. According to historical records, Cao Zhi, the son of Cao Cao, the prime minister of the Eastern Han Dynasty, was once the Hou of Anxiang, and his land is now Houcheng Village in the north of Jinzhou, Hebei Province. 1947 1 1 October, Zhu De was stationed in Houcheng, Jinxian County, commanding the battle to liberate Shimen, summing up the experience of the tough battle and writing the seven methods of "Conquering Shimen". Cao Zhi was demoted to Anxiang Hou fief in Jinzhou Hou Cheng? Experts will dig up evidence (photos)
Experts from provincial and municipal cultural relics departments visited the remaining earth walls in Houcheng Village.
Visit the old people in Houcheng village.
In 22 1 year, Cao Zhi was demoted as the Hou of Anxiang. "His hometown of Anxiang is Houcheng Village in Jinzhou today." Recently, Liang Yong, an expert in literature and history, surprised the academic community. Wuji literature and history experts take the lead in refuting that Anxiang is Wuji City. Undoubtedly, historical records are well founded. Yesterday, seven or eight experts from provincial and municipal cultural relics departments rushed to Houcheng to inspect and found that Houcheng Village was of great excavation value. Next, they will dig underground in Houyi. Once the cultural relics of the corresponding era are dug up, Liang Yong's assertion can be echoed and confirmed.
cause
Amateurs propose to find out where Cao Zhi 'an's hometown is.
Where is the "real body" of Cao Zhi's exile hometown? The answer has been circulating in the field of history for a long time.
A few days ago, Zhang Guolai, a man who likes literature and history, reported to Liang Yong that he found that Houcheng Village, his hometown, was the post-Guo Cheng in ancient times, and it was probably the Anxiang where Cao Zhi was demoted.
He also said that Cao Zhi was a great writer, and he was banished to Ann's hometown. Finding out where Cao Zhi was relegated is of great significance to the study of Cao Zhi's literary works.
Zhang Guolai told reporters that whether Cao Zhi was demoted or not, he also expected the truth of Cao Zhi's demotion to restore the historical truth.
As an expert in literature and history, Liang Yong thinks Zhang Guolai's statement makes sense. Recently, he carefully consulted the information and finally found that Cao Zhi was demoted in Houcheng, Jinzhou.
He said that he only confirmed through literature that if we want to thoroughly understand the problem, we need further research by the cultural relics department.
see action
Ancheng said: There is a "cenotaph" of Cao Zhi in Wuji Ancheng.
Anxiang, where Cao Zhi was demoted, was a rural fief. Mr. Zhou Yiliang, a famous scholar of Wei and Jin Dynasties, thinks that Cao Zhi's relegated hometown is only a symbolic title, not a definite hometown. But in local chronicles, each holds its own word. So where is Cary? There are mainly the following two statements.
"When I was in elementary school, the Chinese teacher said that Cao Zhi was exiled to Anxiang, and his fief was in Ancheng." Mr. Zhao from Ancheng Village, Wuji County said that there are many legends about Cao Zhi and Zhen Fei in the village.
Chi Tongqun is over 70 years old this year, and his hometown is Wuji Gaocun, 2.5 kilometers away from Ancheng. "There is a big earthen tower in the southeast of Gaocun. When I was a child, I heard the old people say that it was a treasure trove of feng shui, and no one could move it. Cao Zhi is buried in it. In the early years of the Republic of China, there was a tombstone of Cao Zhi, but I don't know where it was later. " Chi Tongqun said that Cao Zhi was demoted to Hou of Anxiang. According to Wuji County Records, Anxiang Town is 3 kilometers south of the county seat, and the site is now Ancheng Village. The Wuji County Chronicle also said that in the 26th year of the Republic of China (1937), there was an octagonal tablet of Cao Zhi in the village east cemetery, made of white marble, which no longer exists today.
Jin Gensuo, head of Wuji County Records Office, said: "There is nothing wrong with the records in Wuji County Records. Cao Zhi was demoted as the Hou of Anxiang, and Ancheng was the seat of Anxiang.
After Cao Zhi was demoted as the Hou of Anxiang, he didn't work in Ancheng, but his fief was in Ancheng, so after Cao Zhi's death, Ancheng built a cenotaph of Cao Zhi in Ancheng to mourn him.
This cenotaph is clearly recorded in historical materials, and was not casually established by later literati. Because Cao Zhi didn't take office in Ancheng, Cao Rui later succeeded to the throne, which gave Ancheng a seal to his grandfather, and he became the Hou of Anxiang. There is a relationship between them. "
Zhao Bin, Chairman of the Promise Writers Association, made an in-depth study of Zhen Shi's Family History.
He thinks, "It's a good thing that Teacher Liang Yong raised this question. But the point of view is just a family statement. Unlimited literature and history lovers will study it and express their opinions immediately. "
Hou Cheng said: "A city is a hometown" is a rumor.
Liang Yong disagreed with the statement that "Anxiang is a hopeless city". According to Liang Yong, Qianlong's Annals of the Qing Dynasty recorded: "The old town of Anxiang is located in the east of Jinzhou and Han Zhi County, belonging to Julu County. In the first year of Jingning, Prince Zhao Aifeng was named Houguo and Houhan provinces. " I didn't say this was Cao Zhi's hometown of relegation.
In the History of China and the Atlas of Wei and Jizhou in the Three Kingdoms edited by Mr. Tan Qixiang, Anxiang is located about 5 kilometers east of Jinzhou, which is now Houcheng Village. Ancheng's location in Wuji County is marked as Ancheng Town.
Baidu's "Houcheng" entry, Houcheng, Jinzhou City, Hebei Province, records: "According to historical records, Cao Zhi was once the Hou of Anxiang, and the land sealed is now Houcheng Village in the north of Jinzhou City."
What are these two statements?
It is clearly recorded in The Story of the Three Kingdoms, Wei Zhi Zhao Wenchuan, that after Wei Mingdi Cao Rui ascended the throne, he felt sorry for his mother's unfortunate life experience and showed kindness to his grandfather's family. In the first year of Taihe (227), "in March, thousands of households in urban and rural areas of Wei Chang 'an, Zhongshan, chased (Grandpa Zhen) to escape, worshipped Hou, and his grandson (Zhen) was like a knight. "
Thus, Ancheng in Wuji County has never been a township, but a combination of urban and rural areas. It's just that the historical works since the Tang and Song Dynasties are not strict in their studies, and they made a mistake in the title of the book, while the History of the Unified Qing Dynasty is self-contradictory. Perhaps, in the process of compiling county records in Wuji County, the attached meeting is Anxiang. It is wrong from the source of the cited documents.
Moreover, in the Northern Qi Dynasty, the Geography of Shu Wei compiled by Wei Shou, a native of Xiaquyang, recorded: Weichang County, Zhongshan County: "You're safe" (non-township). And Quyang in Julu County (that is, Xiaquyang, now Jinzhou) "has Linping City, Anxiang City and Quxiang City".
It can be proved that Infinite Ancheng is an urban and rural area, and Anxiang in Xiaquyang (now Jinzhou) is the fief of Anxiang Hou.
Liang Yong also said that as early as 220 AD, after Xelloss became emperor himself, he was kind to the famous counselor Cheng Yu, from Anguoge to Feng 'an Township. By the time Cao Wei was usurped by Sima, the Cheng family had been the Hou of Anxiang. Therefore, Anxiang Hou is only the Cheng family, while Wuji Zhen Shi family is named Hou.
Because, in the year before Cao Zhi was demoted as the Hou of Anxiang, Cao Pi had already given Cheng Yu 'an the title of Hou of Anxiang. Therefore, Cao Zhi's demotion to Anxiang Hou is only a title, and there is no actual food city. And soon changed Cao Zhi to Juancheng Hou.
Liang Yong introduced that Cao Zhi's demotion to Anxiang was an empty name, but Cheng Yu and his descendants Anxiang Hou passed on for four generations. There must be a Houcheng as a symbol of fief.
Therefore, Liang Yong thinks that Jinzhou Hou is the fief of Anxiang Hou of Cheng Yu's family. Houcheng has been a food city for decades, so it left the name Houcheng. Ancheng, Wuji County, was originally the fief of Liu Xi, the son of King Ai of Zhao in the Western Han Dynasty. By the Eastern Han Dynasty, the state of Hou was abolished and placed in Hanchang County. During the Cao Wei period of the Three Kingdoms, it was changed to Weichang County (now Wuji County). Cao Rui, Wei Mingdi sealed this place in Shijia, Wuji Town to his grandfather's house. The title of Anxiang Hou has nothing to do with Cao Zhi being demoted to Anxiang Hou.
progress
Experts gathered in Houcheng Village to discover their "real bodies"
Yesterday morning, Xie Fei, deputy director of the Provincial Cultural Relics Bureau, Liu Zhengjun, director of the Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau, and Liang Yong, an expert in literature and history, and others came to Houcheng Village in Jinzhou.
At the home of the village cadres in Houcheng Village, experts chatted with five old people in the village. According to the old people, this village has a history of nearly 2000 years. As early as the 1960s, the tucheng wall in the village was still alive.
The city wall is high and wide.
At that time, the city wall was square and surrounded the village for a whole circle. "Four streets and four passes, two miles north and south, two miles east and west, you will reach the root of the city wall."
The city wall is four or five meters high and three feet wide, and donkey carts can run on it. There are ditches inside and outside the city wall, which are horribly deep, and there is water in the ditches.
Unfortunately, most of the walls and ditches used by children were demolished and buried, and the walls were also occupied by private houses. Fortunately, there is a broken wall in the northwest corner of the village, which is not high enough and still spans the house. If you don't look carefully, even the rammed soil in weeds is hard to find.
There are 24 temples.
The old people said that when they were very young, the village was full of excitement every holiday. Of course, the most lively place is the temple. At that time, there were 24 temples in the village, the largest of which was Wang Yao Temple.
Experts hurriedly asked, are there any stone tablets, statues and the like? The old people said that not only the temple was gone, but also the bricks and tiles in the temple were hard to find.
Old people say that bricks have been dug up by drilling wells and pigsty, and some of them are striped. The expert was surprised, "There are stripes? Maybe it's from the Han Dynasty! Are there any preserved ones? " Old people say they are all broken. There are also big, thin, and female washboards. I don't know who else has it.
The expert asked, is there anyone surnamed Liu or Cheng in the village? Because Anxiang was once the fief of the royal family Liu and Cheng Yu. Experts are puzzled. If this is really Anxiang, then there should be Liu Hecheng here.
The old people frowned and suddenly remembered that there were many murders in the Ming Dynasty, but few villagers survived. Now, all the villagers have moved here. Having said that, it is normal that there are no surnames of Liu and Cheng in the village.
The cultural relics department will go to Houcheng to dig for "evidence"
Yesterday 1 1: 30, experts held a meeting. Experts in literature and history say that Anxiang, that is, Houcheng, has always been supported by literature. Li Yong, an expert in literature and history, also said that according to literature records, whether Anxiang is in the back city or not within the scope of Jinzhou today requires proof of cultural relics.
In this regard, the provincial and municipal cultural relics departments indicated that they would send people to Houcheng Village for excavation as soon as possible. Experts from the Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau expressed full confidence in this work, because not far from Houcheng Village, a Han Dynasty tomb was excavated.
At the same time, experts in literature and history said that if the related cultural relics of the Han Dynasty were excavated in Houcheng Village, it was confirmed that An Xiang's literature description in Houcheng could also echo Liang Yong's assertion.
The leaders of Jinzhou Municipal Committee said that they will come up with a plan as soon as possible and cooperate with the cultural relics department to do the excavation work. Source Zhao Yan Evening News)
