Architectural pattern of Luoyang palace
In the Tang Dynasty, Luoyang Palace had a square radius of twelve miles and twelve gates on all sides, all of which were made by the Sui Dynasty, but the name of the city gate changed slightly. There are five gates in the south: Zetianmen (renamed yingtianmen in the first year of Shenlong) in the middle, Mingdemen (called Xingjiao Gate in Sui Dynasty) in the east and Changle Gate (called Zhengguangmen in Sui Dynasty) in the east. In addition, there is a door in the east of Mingdemen, called Zheng Xuanmen, and there is a door in the west of Changle Gate, called Long Qiongmen (after avoiding Tang Mingdi, it was changed to Chongqing Gate); North Gate 2: Anning Gate in the east and Xuanwu Gate in the west; East Gate 2: Sogo North Gate, Sogo South Gate, and the gate faces south; West Sanmen: Yujiamen in the north (Sui called the gate of protection), Luocheng Ximen in the middle (also called Fangzhumen), Luocheng Nanmen in the south, with the gate facing south. There are 35 temples, platforms and museums in the impregnable Miyagi. The halls are in harmony, Tado. The main halls are: Vientiane Temple, Zhenguan Temple, Luoshen Temple, Wucheng Hall, Changsheng Hall, Jixian Hall, Daxiong Hall, beginning of spring Terrace, Tongxin Pavilion and Deng Chunge. Most of these palaces face south, alternating high and low, and are scattered along the central axis.
The main entrance of Miyagi is Zetianmen. In the first year of Shenlong (705), in order to avoid Wu Zetian, it was changed to yingtianmen, later called Shenlongmen and Wufenglou. In the Sui Dynasty, the sky was the sky, and the gatehouse was the most luxurious. The door looks double, the top is purple, and the left and right pavilions are 120 feet high. In the fourth year of Wude (62 1), Li Shimin, king of Qin, conquered Luoyang, which was too luxurious and ordered to be demolished. After Tang Gaozong moved its capital to Los Angeles, it was rebuilt and built, and the luxury and style of the Sui Dynasty were restored. Judging from modern archaeological excavations, this gate is a huge architectural complex that respects the macro. The shape of the building is one door and three roads. The plane of the city gate is concave, consisting of a gatehouse, a multi-storey building and a que building. The range of the lower platform is more than 20 meters from east to west/kloc-0, 60 meters from north to south, and the depth of the gate is 25 meters. It is not difficult to imagine the grandeur of building a gate of 120 feet (equivalent to 35 meters today) on such a platform. There are three rows in the north-south direction at the entrance, with a spacing of 3.5 to 4 meters. In the courtyards of Zhougong Temple and Luoyang Daily, you can still see the ruins of the city gate at that time. The huge double que protruding to the south is a three-exit que with a reserved length of 45 meters. The southern end of the que is 30 meters wide and the distance between the two que is 83 meters. There is a wall with a width of17.5m between Que and the city gate, and the joint is widened to 2 1 m.. The tower is square, and each side of rammed earth abutment is about18m long; The multi-storey and Quelou on the east and west sides of the city gate are connected by stables; The stable is eleven meters wide and four meters high, which is a rammed soil foundation. There are neat column holes on both sides. One to three rows of blue stone foundations are laid on the outside of the cave, and the middle of the foundation stones are fixed together by chains and waist connections. There are three rows of stone aprons outside the cornerstone, which are 2. 1 m wide and uniform. This huge building complex fully demonstrates the magnificent architectural style of the capital city in the heyday of China feudal society. This architectural form has a far-reaching impact on the capital construction of later generations, such as the Danfeng Gate at the south gate of Bianliang Capital in the Northern Song Dynasty and the Wumen Gate in Beijing in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
Then Tianmen is a building with special significance and a symbol of imperial power. Important political activities, such as forgiving, defending (Fu You), changing the Yuan Dynasty, founding the country, surrendering prisoners, meeting foreign envoys and dignitaries, are inextricably linked with this door. In 660, Emperor Gaozong boarded Tianmen, accepted and released Baekje prisoners to show his kindness and love. In May of the 20th year of Kaiyuan (733), Xuanzong ascended the Tianmen Gate and accepted Xi and Qidan prisoners presented by Wang Xin 'an. The following year, he received the eighth Japanese envoy to the Tang Dynasty here.
Entering Zetianmen, there are Yongtai Gate and Gan Yuan Gate, followed by the main hall of Miyagi-Vientiane Shrine, also known as Tang Ming. Its position is opposite to Zetianmen located on the central axis. According to historical records, the height is about 88 meters, and each side of the ground floor is about 90 meters long. This is undoubtedly the largest single wooden structure building in the history of ancient architecture in China, and the only pavilion-style palace main hall building. Li Bai Tianbao wrote "Tang Ming Fu" when he visited Luoyang in his early years, and he couldn't help but sigh-"It's really beautiful! Huang zai, Tang zai!
Vientiane Temple has been changed and abolished several times, which shows that Wu Zetian has great ambition to succeed. The original site here is the Ganyang Hall of the Sui Dynasty. At that time, the building was very luxurious, but when Luoyang was conquered by Li Shimin, it was set on fire by Qu Tutong. In the second year of Linde (665), Tian Feng rebuilt the temple site according to the imperial edict. When this temple was completed, it was called Gan Yuan Hall. It is 120 feet high, 345 feet long from east to west and 176 feet long from north to south. Although smaller than the Sui system, it is also beautiful. The main hall is built on a huge three-story platform, with nine double-decker pavilions and nine purlins. There are eight panlong gold pillars in the front row, with relief clouds, each of which is difficult for two people to encircle. Red walls, yellow tiles, cornices, carved beams and painted buildings, and transparent windows are really fantastic, strange, magnificent and magnificent. There are many gilded dragons, Cai Feng, Kirin and lions on the front platform, which makes the whole Gan Yuan Temple present a magnificent scene. Since then, this hall has become an important hall for the emperor to handle state affairs, and many government decrees have been issued to the whole country from here.
In order to show the justice and generosity of governing the country, Wu Zetian ordered Deng Wengu and the lung stone to be installed outside the temple in the first year of hanging arch (685). People can knock on Deng Wengu at any time, or stand on the dragon stone and accuse local officials. There are no guards next to the drum stone. Once someone beats drums or stands on a stone, it is suggested that they be ordered to accept complaints.
Three years later, Wu Zetian pushed aside the crowd and decided to demolish the luxurious Ganyuan Hall and build the Ming Hall on the basis of the Ganyuan Hall in Luoyang, the capital of the gods, regardless of the strong opposition of the imperial clan minister.
Tang Ming is a place where ancient laws were promulgated and sacrifices were made to heaven and earth, and it was the political center of ancient countries. According to the ancient system of the Zhou Dynasty, it should be built in a secluded place, three miles from Miyagi and seven miles from the mountain, which can only be the size of a small thatched cottage to show that the emperor and the people share joys and sorrows. Wu Zetian simply ignored these old ideas and customs, and ordered the construction of Tang Ming in the palace on the grounds that it was too far away from Miyagi, inconvenient to sacrifice and tired from contact. This construction project is extremely huge, and thousands of people are working every day. However, it took only nine months to demolish Gan Yuan Hall, expand the foundation and build the Ming Hall, and it took four years (688) to build it in 65438+February.
The traditional hall form is five rooms, four doors, eight households and four steps. The artistic style of Tang Ming built by Wu Zetian is novel and unique. The building has three floors, the bottom floor is square, and the east, south, west and north are respectively decorated with four colors of green, red, white and black, symbolizing the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, with windows on all sides; The middle layer is a regular dodecagon dedicated to the zodiac, symbolizing twelve o'clock. In 697, the statue of the zodiac was cast and placed in the middle layer (meaning that everyone in the world is in control); The upper layer is a twenty-four prism, symbolizing twenty-four solar terms; The roof is round and supported by nine Yunlong. On the roof, stands a golden phoenix, which is more than ten feet high. Phoenix is independent, with its front paws sticking out and facing the end door, symbolizing Wu Zetian's ambition to seize the world. The whole building is 300 feet wide from east to west and 294 feet high from north to south. The weather is magnificent. "Go to Beijing for more than a hundred miles, and look far away." The internal structure of Mingtang is also very special. There is a ten-circumference giant column in the middle, which goes straight to the top of the tower. The wooden pillars and wooden palms are connected by iron ropes, which is quite like a modern umbrella, so that the three-story temple runs through in one breath. There are painters painted on the huge wooden pillars, decorated with pearls and jade, carved with wood as tiles and sandwiched with pigments. Under the Tang Ming, the canal is made of iron, and the group harmony is the sparse facility; The steps are surrounded by stone railings and there are steps inside. The steps are so big that each side can be made into a 100-meter runway. Such a magnificent building embodies the crystallization sweat of working people and the extraordinary talents of countless craftsmen. Tang Ming was also named the Holy Land of Vientiane by Wu Zetian because of its grandeur, richness and brilliance.
After Vientiane shrine, there is heaven. Long live the gobbledygook in the first year (685), Wu Zetian ordered the monk Xue Huaiyi to be placed in a giant Buddha, "raising the sky five stories north of Tang Ming to store the colossus". Heaven is more magnificent than Tang Ming, which is 100 feet higher than Tang Ming. You can go up to the third floor to enjoy the scenery of Luoyang. The giant Buddha, which is stored in heaven, is tall and spectacular, with a small index of ten people, which is even more magnificent than the Lushena Buddha in Fengxian Temple in Longmen. Sandwich sculpture technology also shows its wonderful technological level at this time. This process takes textiles such as flax as the main raw material, and uses special techniques to shape figures, flowers and animals. The technology is unique and the effect is excellent.
To the north of heaven is Zhenguan Hall, which was called Daye Hall in Sui Dynasty. It is one of the palaces where the emperor sleeps, second only to Vientiane Shrine. In the first year of Hongdao (683), 165438+ October, Emperor Gaozong worshipped Mount Tai. He was seriously ill in Fengtian Palace, returned to Dongdu, and rested in Zhenguan Temple. One day, he wanted to climb the Tianmen Tower and announced his forgiveness. "He can't ride a horse because he is angry." He summoned ministers and people to announce forgiveness before entering the temple. He called Prime Minister Pei Yan to the temple at night and made a memorial to help the government. The emperor, who had nothing to do and lost power all his life, gave up his life and returned to the west. Since then, all political power has fallen to Wu Zetian. Since then, Wu Zetian called the system for six years and proclaimed himself emperor for fifteen years, which made the political atmosphere in the early Tang Dynasty harmonious and the economy revitalized, and laid the foundation for the arrival of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. On the west side of Tang Ming is Wucheng Hall, which has three doors: Guangfanmen (also known as Fuzhengmen), Ganhuamen (also known as Qianfumen) and Wuchengmen; There is a gate to the east of the temple, called Dongming Gate. The building of this temple is quite magnificent, and it is a hall for the emperor to listen to politics and summon ministers. In February of the first year of Guangzhai (684), Wu Zetian became the royal martial arts school, and the emperor led his ministers to be decorated. The marquis of Wu said that he sent the minister of rites of Wu to be the heir of the emperor. From then on, Wu Zetian listened to politics for six years.
Wucheng Hall has Changle Gate Guangyun Gate in the west, Mingfumen in the north, Zhongshu Province (Prime Minister Ya) in the door, and a history museum in the west; To the north is Mingfu Hospital; There is a college in the north of the yard; There is a clinic in the south and a kitchen in the north of the History Museum, which is an important department for the supply of the emperor's inner bedroom.
North of Mingfu and northwest of Wucheng Hall, there is Yingxian Gate, which was built by Wu Zetian and later called Jixian Gate. There is Jixian Hall in the gate, also called Yingxian Palace. Wu Zetian not only made no secret of his political achievements, but also made no secret of his widely selected imperial attendants. According to historical records, although Wu Zetian is old and rare, she is good at maintenance, and gfd is very clever. "Although her children and grandchildren are on the side, she doesn't feel that she is aging." Luckily, after Xue Huaiyi and Shen Nan, she also called her brothers Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Zongchang. This is not enough, and beauty pageants are widely used. People worship it, creating officials such as Crane Supervisor, Cheng, and Principal Booklet, and choosing other bachelors as candidates. The company was appointed as the crane control supervisor, and was appointed as the crane control supervisor. Besides listening to state affairs, Wu Zetian also likes to drink and play games with this group of worshippers in Yingxian Palace. In April of the 13th year of Kaiyuan (725), Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty hosted a banquet here to entertain officials, ceremony officials and bachelor's students from Zhongshu Province and Xiamen Province. He is happy to see a room full of talented people. He said loudly to everyone: fairy tales are illusory, I don't believe them, but talents are the foundation for helping me govern the country. I think this Juxian Hall should be renamed Juxian Hall. Since then, Yingxian Palace has been changed to Jixian Gate, Jixian Hall to Jixian Hall, and Lizheng Academy in the temple to Jixian Academy.
Jixian Academy is an organization organized by the Tang government to organize, manage, edit and copy books. Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty attached great importance to this work, and set up a high official position in the academy, with a bachelor's degree above five crystals and a bachelor's degree below six grades. At that time, the prime minister Zhang said that he was in charge of the hospital affairs, supplemented by Xu Jian, a constant attendant of Zuosanqi. The editing, proofreading and copying of academies have played an important role in the development of Tang Wenhua and the preservation of traditional culture.
To the west of Mingfu Gate, the South Gate of Los Angeles is the Los Angeles Hall. After Wu Zetian proclaimed herself emperor, in February of the first year (690), she took an exam at the Royal Palace in Los Angeles, which set a precedent for the so-called "imperial examination" in the imperial examination. At that time, the top three in the exam were named champions in turn, and the second place was Hua Tan. This is a very wise move by Wu Zetian. She has always attached great importance to talents. In order to ascend the throne, she dismissed many imperial clan ministers, which naturally required a large number of emerging landlord class intellectuals to strengthen her rule. On the one hand, Gong Kao's move shows that she attaches importance to talents, on the other hand, it also makes candidates have a sense of respect for the emperor and support her regime even more after participating in politics. Since then, he has been in power for fifteen years, and the subjects of imperial examinations have increased, the scope of examinations has expanded, and talents have been selected regardless of family background and qualifications. Many literati from small and medium-sized landlords entered the political power institutions in large numbers through the imperial examinations, thus further weakening the status of elites in the political power. For the talents she appointed, let them give full play to their talents, let them make contributions to the country, and constantly assess them. Found incompetent, immediately dismissed or transferred to a competent position; If anyone is found to abuse power for personal gain, accept bribes, or sell himself politically, he will be demoted or beheaded. Therefore, politics in the early Tang Dynasty was unprecedentedly stable.
Luocheng Temple has Xianju Hall in the northeast, Jixian Hall in the south, Wannian Hall and Tongming Hall in the east, and Jiuzhou Pool in the north. Jiuzhou pond, its pond is curved, like Jiuzhou in the East China Sea, with a land of ten hectares and a water depth of more than ten feet. Birds sing and fish swim, and flowers are planted. There is a continent in the pool, and there is the Eta Ursae Majoris Hall in the continent, which was built in the Sui Dynasty and was often visited by the marquis of Wu. Long live the gobbledygook. In the first year, the Queen Mother hated Xue Huaiyi's arrogance, secretly selected 100 powerful imperial secretaries to ambush in the temple, lured them to come, and then sent Wang Youning of Wu Jianchang to kill them and send them to Baima Temple to burn their bodies and build towers. There is a pavilion called Liuli in the south of Eta Ursae Majoris Hall, and there is a column view in the south, both of which were built in Sui Dynasty.
To the north of Wucheng Hall is the Immortal Palace. There is a fairy hall in the yard, which is the bedroom of the palace. Wu Zetian lived in this hall. In her later years, she believed in Buddhism. Maybe she killed too many things in her early years and wanted to repent and atone by chanting Buddha.
There is Yihui Hall in the north of Zhenguan Hall, and there is a stone pool in front of it, with 50 steps from east to west and 40 steps from north to south. The north of the temple is the Hall of Chongxun, and the north is the Taoguang Garden, which is several miles from east to west, with a long corridor in the south, an east-west canal in the garden and Shen Du Garden in the west. Further north is Xuanwu Gate.
To the west of Taoguang Garden and to the north of Changsheng Hall, there are buildings such as Wendian, Tongxin Pavilion, Liritai Pavilion and Limbo Pavilion. There is a pool in the north of Limboge, and there are two continents in the pool. There is Deng Chunting in Dongzhou, Chenghua Hall under it, Rational Gas Pavilion in Xizhou and Ninghua Hall under it. There is an Anfu Hall built in the Sui Dynasty to the north of Chibi.
Jiuzhou Pool is separated from the west of the city (also known as Jiacheng). 275 meters north and south, east and west 180 meters. There is a door in the south, which is a single doorway structure with a doorway width of10m. There are many buildings in the city, with three halls in the south and two halls in the north; There is a pavilion on the other side of the city, an observatory in the north and south, and a shady temple below, which is 250 feet long from east to west and 200 feet long from north to south; There is a reflection platform in the west, followed by Baixi Hall, Yiluan Hall, Wudong Hall, Dechang Hall and Yuyin Hall in the south.
In the east of Tang Ming, there is Huichang Gate in Mingde Gate and Zhangshan Gate in the north. There are buildings in the gate, such as Xiamen Province and Hong Wen Pavilion, just corresponding to Mingfu Gate. To the east of the gate is the gate of Dong Qi-Taihe Gate; There are two rows of buildings in the north of Zhangshanmen, and in the east and north, there are Siwentang, Zhuangjingtang, Feixiang Hall and Xifangyuan in turn, reaching Anning Gate. Side by side with Zhuangjing Hall in the west, there are Dayi Hall, beginning of spring Terrace, Liubei Hall and Hongwei Hall in turn, reaching Taoguang Garden.
The East Palace is in the southeast corner of Miyagi, and the main entrance is Shiguang Gate. There are small doors in the east, Binshan in the east, Yi Yan in the west, and Horse Square in the palace.
Wu Zetian was in power for fifteen years. The political stability, economic development, market prosperity and urban prosperity also contributed to Wu Zetian's extravagant enjoyment thought. Not only are the buildings in Miyagi extremely beautiful and luxurious, but other palaces are also beautifully carved and decorated. Among them, the famous ones are Shangyang Palace, Sanyang Palace, Zigui Palace, Fengtian Palace and Gaoshan, Suyu and He Yi Palace in Shen Du Gardens.
Shangyang Palace is located in the southwest corner of the imperial city, to the east of Shen Du Garden. It faces Luoshui in the south, Shuigu in the west, Yemen on the right side of the Imperial City in the east and Shen Du Garden in the north. It was built in the first year of Emperor Yao of Gaozong (679). At that time, Emperor Gaozong and King Wuhou were lucky in Luoyang. After inspecting the newly-built high mountain and Su Yu Palace, they came to the bank of Luohe and felt the beauty of overlooking. That is, Wei Ji, the minister of agriculture, was ordered to build a palace near Luoshui, which set each other off in harmony with the high mountains and Su Yu Palace, so as to climb high and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Luoyang.
Wei Ji was good at catering to the emperor's wishes, and the Shang Yang Palace was soon built, creating a magnificent and extraordinary style. Its luxurious and rich style far exceeds that of Gaoshan people and Su Yu Palace, so it was appreciated by Gaozong. Wu Zetian quickly moved into Shang Yang Palace to handle government affairs.
Shangyang Palace faces Luoshui in the south, and there is a long corridor stretching for a mile along Luoshui, carved with beams and painted buildings, looking from a distance. Because of this, Liu, the left servant of Shangshu, said to Di: Gulangchi and pavilions are in the palace and the city, and outsiders will not let them see them, which may hurt the hearts of ordinary people. However, Wei Ji built a gallery on the river bank outside, and everyone paid tribute to it. Di Renjie illegally played Wei Ji on the charge of luring the emperor into luxury, so Wei Ji was dismissed.
The main entrance and main hall of Shangyang Palace face east, so as to be integrated with Miyagi. There are two doors in the east: the main entrance is the elephant gate, and the north gate is the star gate; There are two doors in the south: Xianluomen in the east and Tongxianmen in the west; The north gate is the incense gate; There are two doors in the west, the names of which cannot be verified.
The main hall in the palace is the wind-watching hall, and the rhyme of the hall is the valve, facing the East Elephant Gate; There is a bath building in the south corner of the gate, facing Luoshui; There is Qibao Pavilion in North Point; There are beginning of spring Tower, Zhangyao Pavilion, Jiuzhou Pavilion and other buildings in the wind viewing hall. Guanfeng Temple is the most beautiful palace in Shangyang Palace, where Emperor Gaozong and Wu Zetian often listen to politics. In the first year of Shenlong, after the Xuanwumen mutiny, Wu Zetian was forced to move to this temple. Zhongzong led hundreds of officials to visit the Wind Temple every ten days to greet Wu Zetian's daily life. Due to the loss of power, betrayal and careless modification, Wu Zetian soon became weak and haggard. In the first year of Shenlong (705), she died at the North Xianju Courtyard of Guanfeng Temple at the age of 82. Wu Zetian was an emperor for decades and fifteen years, but finally she dared not go to see Emperor Gaozong as an emperor, so she left the system: she went to see the emperor and was called the Great Sage Queen. In this way, the only female emperor in the history of China died tragically in this magnificent Shang Yang Palace. Xianju Courtyard has Huacheng Courtyard in the south, Ganlu Hall in the southwest, Shuangyao Pavilion in the east, Linzhi Temple in the west, and Dong Xuantang in front of Linzhi Temple in the east. To the west of Guanfeng Temple is this branch, and to the west are beginning of spring Garden, Furong Pavilion and Yinan Pavilion.
Xiangmen has a fragrant hall; There is a sweet soup courtyard in Tongxianmen, Yujingmen in the northeast, Jinque Gate in the north and Taichu Gate in the south. Yujingmen has Hakka Provincial Academy, Yindian Academy and Hanlin Academy in the west, Xiantao Gate in the northwest and Shou Chang Gate in the west.
There is a clear view in the northwest of Shangyang Palace, where there is a place for female Taoist priests to live.
On the west is Shangyang Palace, separated by valley water, and on the west is Shangyang Palace. Hongqiao crosses the valley and leads to the future.
In addition to exquisite and luxurious architecture, there is also a beautiful place in the palace, with valleys and rivers, clear canals and bamboo forests. Along the winding promenade along the bank of Luoshui, you can look out against the railing. The beauty of its environment and the grandeur of its palace can be described as the ultimate. Li geng's Du Dong Fu praised: "Shang Yang is rich in powder, flowers are green, and Hongqiao overlaps the north. Crosscutting hundreds of blocks, ten feet high volume, a landmark map and a current barrier. " Wang Jian, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, described such a beautiful scene in his poem Shang Yang Palace:
Shang Yang's flowers and trees do not fall, and Luoshui flows all over the palace;
The ladies-in-waiting in the red chamber of the painting pavilion laugh, and Yu Di manages passers-by to worry;
The curtain city enters the stream with orange flowers, and Yushu climbs the mountain with thick laurel leaves;
I've seen The Legend of the Fairy Queen Mother, but I haven't won it in nine days.
This carved and embroidered pavilion, a magnificent palace, adds some beauty to Luoyang, the capital of God. Especially the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first month, it is a charming place. Luoyang was called the Flower City in the Tang Dynasty. Although it refers to "peony flowers", there are also legends that refer to "lanterns". At that time, the Lantern Festival usually lasted for three days. These three days, every household has lights and fireworks everywhere. No way, but no way. In the palace, there is a big Chen lantern, which is hung with silk as a lamp and gold and jade pendant. Once Xuanzong moved to Yang Palace to watch the lights. Craftsman Mao Shunxin has more than 30 structural tapestries, including toilets. The building is 150 feet high, and the breeze blows, which sounds like rhyme. Some lights are like dragons and leopards, and Xuanzong sees Da Yue. Yuan Zhen, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote the poem "The Shadow of a Lamp".
Luoyang has no chariots and horses day and night, and red yarn is full of trees;
It is said that light and shadow are different at ordinary times, and Xuanzong's latent companion is too real to swim.
However, it is this building that embodies the wisdom of working people, but it has become a place for rulers to vent their dissolute and shameless lives. In shangyang palace, there are many grievances and tears of ladies-in-waiting. When Wu Zetian was in this palace, there were clouds of beautiful women and groups of beautiful women. When she arrived in Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, she had frequent good fortune in the East, making Shangyang Palace a palace for ladies and gentlemen to compete for favor. Since Xuanzong favored Yang Guifei, the people in the harem have never been lucky again. The Sixth Palace is a little beautiful and will be left elsewhere. The Shang Yang Palace has also become the cold palace of the beauty of the Moon Palace. The tall and majestic palaces of the past still exist, but the grand occasion of thousands of officials accompanying and ministers welcoming guests is no longer seen. There are no noisy chariots and horses, no graceful songs and dances. The palace was closed and the painted beams lost their brilliant luster. "Green guards guarded the gate of the palace. When the sun closed, this was a concrete portrayal of the neglect of Shangyang Palace at that time. Maid-in-waiting is "the primary candidate in the last years of Xuanzong, and now she is sixteen or seventeen years old". They struggled to guard the empty pavilion, lost their freedom and youth, and became the victims of the rulers. Tao Yong wrote to Wang Chun in Tianjin Bridge:
Jinqiao is soaked in red cream in spring, and the smoke and willow breeze are on the shore;
Cui Jian didn't come to Jindian to retreat, and Gongying took out the sun flowers.
Maids-in-waiting day after day, year after year, look forward to the king's visit to the eastern capital and cherish themselves. However, "the jade chariot has not returned to the west for a long time, and the spring scenery is still in the world; Thousands of trees inherit the new snow dew, and thousands of doors are empty to the old rivers and mountains; Deep flowers are silent, Miyagi is closed, and the details are green willows; Seeing the boundless sea of clouds, just come and go, waiting for the dragon's face. " Shangyang Palace is like a prison, which locks the freedom of ladies-in-waiting. Shangyang Palace is like a living tomb, where countless women's youth and happiness are buried.
The golden palace is closed and the palace flowers are lonely. Since Tianbao, the Shang Yang Palace has been ignored by emperors and gradually forgotten by people.
Besides Shangyang Palace, there are many palaces near Luoyang. There is Wan 'an Palace (also known as Sanyang Palace and Xingtai Palace) on Wan 'an Mountain in Longmen, Shandong Province. Zigui Palace in the west of Mianchi, Fengtian Palace at the foot of Songshan Mountain in Songyang County (now Dengfeng), and the Summer Palace at Cuiyunfeng Mountain in Mangshan.
