? Liaoyang Palace (Lingying Hall) is located on the top of Liaoyang Mountain in Caixi Village, Luncang Town, Nan'an City. It is the only place where the ancient official road from An, Yong and De to Jiuri Mountain, the starting point of the "Maritime Silk Road", must pass. The terrain of Liaoyang Mountain is majestic, like a giant lion, raising its head to the sky. Looking forward, Longfeng Peak is steep and tall, spanning three towns, with mountains and mountains, and the pines are whistling in the wind. The plains next to it are half full, with thousands of hectares of fertile fields, lingering streams and spring-like scenery all year round. The green trees on the mountain are whirling, the mountain flowers are blooming, the cold spring is whispering, and the jade is singing the piano. It is truly the holy land of Lingshan. Feng Shui experts once asserted: "Two or three lions follow each other, and the dragon boat controls the water mouth. If Feng Shui is done that way, there will be ninety-nine gauze hats."

? One side is water and soil, the other is sacred. In this feng shui treasure land where gods and goddesses roam, the figures of the three princes Sun, Yu and Chi are always visible in the curl of cigarettes. According to legend, Prince Chi’s surname was Chi Mingran, with the courtesy name Fengchun and the nickname Decheng. He was born in Nanjing during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty (1573-1620 AD). He always has the ambition to govern the country and bring peace to the country, and he always has the heart to help people in trouble and danger. The emperor ordered him to be awarded Daotai in Zhangzhou, Fujian Province. On the way to his appointment, he met a big black man on Xiaoying Ridge, seven kilometers east of Maxiang. He carried a black bag and behaved in a ghostly manner, and he couldn't help but become alert. Invite the black man to go to the Ma Lane Hotel to have a drink together. After a few glasses of wine, the big black man revealed his true feelings, saying that he was a plague ghost and that on the order of the Ghost King, he went to Zhangzhou to spread plague medicine to kill him. Chi Ran was shocked when he heard this, and thought in his heart: The people of Zhangzhou have suffered such a disaster since I took office, so it would be better to replace thousands of lives in Zhangjun with one person. Then he used wine to make the plague ghost drunk, cleverly took the black bag, drank all the plague medicine, and transformed into a horse alley.

People learned from Chi Daotai’s personal soldiers that he died of taking medicine, and were deeply moved by his spirit of self-sacrifice for the people. Everyone proposed to build a statue for Chi Dao and enshrine it in Yuanwei Hall. Later, when the Jade Emperor learned about it, he was very moved. In order to reward his noble moral character, he was decreed to be Daitianxunshou and appointed as a god in the Yuanwei Hall in Maxiang. Since then, the incense has flourished, all requests have been answered, the divine grace has been vast, and the power has been outstanding. Then he was given the title of "General Patrol King". The full title of the title is "Yu Zhile Feng Dai Tianxun Shou Chief Inspector", which protects the people of a certain area. There have been many touching stories circulated among the people about Prince Chi, who "showed his sage to fight with weapons", "went down to the liao to drive away the plague", "went down to the streets to eliminate the plague", and "the magical talisman cured paralysis". Afterwards, Prince Chiran came to Liaoyang Shuiwei Palace in his avatar. Liaoyang Shuiwei Palace was originally a small temple built by the ancestors of Liaoyang Village after they immigrated, and was worshiped together with the Wu Mansion.

When he saw the Xiangtian Lion's Cave in Liaoyang Mountain, he was extremely happy and thought it was an excellent place for the three kings to gather and build a palace. Later, he learned that the real person of the Yang family (Yang Lan) had chosen the land for his temple, so he asked the Yang family to give up the land, and received support and agreed to give up the land. The four of them had a deep love for each other and became brothers. It was the early Qing Dynasty, and some tribesmen came to Taiwan to make a living. Before leaving, they went to the Buddha statue and made a wish: "If I go to Taiwan and become prosperous, I will return to my hometown and rebuild the temple." With the blessing of the three princes and gods, business prospered after going to Taiwan, and the family If you are well-endowed, you will return home with gold and jade. With the cooperation of all the villagers, the small temple at the foot of the mountain was moved to its current location on the mountain, built into a palace, and named "Lingying Hall" before returning to Taiwan.

The sculpture was placed in the fire to dry the night before. Unexpectedly, the wood had spirituality and was automatically placed on the carving table the next day. After the carving of the golden body was completed, a day was chosen to welcome him back to Liaoyang Palace. It also happened to be a festive day for Quanzhou Prefecture. Three gun salutes were fired to celebrate the grand march of the three kings Sun, Yu and Chi. A consecration ceremony was held immediately after entering the palace.

In 1966, the Four Olds were destroyed and Lingying Hall suffered a catastrophe. The temple fell into the cold smoke, and the three kings were weathered. However, the three kings protected the country and benefited the people, helped those in need, benefited all the people, and were highly respected. People's belief in them has long been spread throughout the world and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Therefore, after the temple was destroyed, devout people often went to burn incense and worship.
