Chapter 538: The Upstairs on Zhou Zhu
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, where are we going to play today, do you have any stories to hear?" After breakfast in the morning, the most active little princess of Gaoyang chirped and made noise in Wu Yuanqing's ears.
"Let's go to the small island on the river in the west of the city today." Changle said with a smile and glanced at Wu Yuanqing, who was dizzy and depressed by the noise.
"Okay, let's go to Zhouzhu to play." Wu Yuanqing nodded in agreement. A few days ago, I said that I wanted to go to the river island outside the city to play, but the emperor and queen didn't let them, saying that it was dangerous to take a boat, and then I forgot about it for a while around the city.
Zhouzhu and riverbank both mean the same thing, that is, a small land island inherent in the middle of the river, or formed by the impact of sediment.
In the middle and upper reaches of the Yellow River, there are very few such small islands, mainly because of the fast flow rate and the sediment is not easy to deposit. But in Puzhou, which has reached the lowest level of the third level, the flow rate begins to slow down, so that the island in the river appears.
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, what's there to do on this island?" When crossing the river by boat, Gao Yang stood on the side of the boat and couldn't see the outside with his feet crossed, so he was very depressed and pulled his brother-in-law Wu Yuanqing, who was also standing on the side of the boat and looking into the distance.
"On the island, there's really nothing interesting on this island, just a lot of beautiful birds stay here, and you can fish on the island." Wu Yuanqing said with a smile.
"Ah, that's it, nothing else?" Gao Yang's little face was bitter, she liked to see beautiful birds, but she couldn't sit still because she couldn't sit still because of such a boring thing as fishing.
"No, in addition to these, it's the tall building above, didn't you just say you wanted to go up and have a look when we were playing on the Puzhou city wall, and today the opportunity came." Wu Yuanqing tugged at the corners of his mouth and said.
"How beautiful is that building, brother-in-law, have you been to see it?" Gao Yang asked again.
"Yes, yes, is that building famous, the little son has never heard of it." The little boy on the side also asked curiously, but he lowered his little head a little embarrassed when he said it.
"It's famous, it's famous. But in the future, it will be more famous." Wu Yuanqing said with a smile.
"Why is it more famous, is it because we came?" Gao Yang asked excitedly.
Eh, Wu Yuanqing's face stiffened, and he said in his heart, little brat, you are really narcissistic, your face is so big, even if your father comes here, it may not make this place more famous, let alone your little girl.
However, it is not good to fight the narcissistic little girl, Wu Yuanqing still nodded in agreement, pulled the corners of his mouth and said, yes, yes, that's it.
The small continent is not big, but the building is very high, especially located on the small continent is more towering, the building name is the stork bird building, in the later generations, it is one of the four famous buildings, and even has the first of the four famous buildings.
Later generations said that the stork tower is on the east bank of the Yellow River in the west of Puzhou City, it is a military building built by the soldiers in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, because it is magnificent, tall and wide-eyed, and there is a feeling of taking off and wanting to fly when climbing the floor, so it is called "Yunqi Tower". Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info and because it is close to the Yellow River, there is a kind of fish-eating bird often inhabits the tall buildings in groups, this water bird is like a crane, but the top of Bhutan, the beak is pointed and the legs are long, the hair is gray and white, people call it "stork", so it is also called "stork building".
But this is not right, especially the location of the stork tower,
According to the accompanying Puzhou officials, the stork tower was built in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and the Changchun Palace was built in a period, and was originally built as a military building, because the southernmost and easternmost part of the Northern Zhou Dynasty territory at that time was basically here in Puzhou.
The military environment of Puzhou is too important, it is a major gateway of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, so at that time, the powerful minister of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Otsuka Zaiyu Wenhu, built the Jincheng on the cliff on the west bank of the river, which is now the Changchun Palace, and then built the stork tower on the small island in the river, in order to be horns with Jincheng and Puzhou in the east, and at the same time, it can also be used as a military frontier position to suppress Puzhou after the fall of Puzhou.
The reason why later generations said that the address of the stork tower is on the east bank of the Yellow River in the west of Puzhou City, but because the stork tower was destroyed in the war in the Yuan Dynasty, and the site was saved, and in the Ming Dynasty, due to the flooding of the Yellow River, the river swing frequently, and its site was difficult to find. People can only use Puzhou Xicheng Tower as a "stork building" to talk about comfort.
However, the origin of the name of the stork tower is correct, it is named because of a beautiful big bird called the stork.
The stork tower, looking across the river is a hazy beauty, and going up to the island is another beauty.
Majestic, six-storey building, visual measurement is almost more than 30 meters high, carved beams and painted buildings, bucket arches and cornices, from below to give people a feeling of towering into the clouds, Biwa Zhu eaves in the sunlight under the dazzling color luster, it is really hard to believe that such a beautiful pavilion is actually built as a military building.
"The blue sky, the shadow is reversed, more than 60 years, independent of Zhongzhou, with its good spirit, on behalf of the victory."
Looking up at the ancient building in front of him, Wu Yuanqing couldn't help but sigh.
"Brother Yuanqing seems to like this stork tower very much, what's the matter, is it a great deal again?" Changle asked with a grin.
"Write poems, write poems, brother-in-law write poems." Gao Yang, Ankang A few little princesses heard their sister Changle's words, and couldn't help clapping their little hands and coaxing.
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, you write poems quickly, write better, so that in the future, when people talk about the poems you wrote here, they will also mention the little son." The little son clapped his little hands like a cute sea dog, but the words that came out of his mouth were utilitarian, don't want it, and he knew how to rub the heat and rub the topic.
But it's no wonder that the little son would say this, a few years ago, Wu Yuanqing and Changle went down to Lingnan, passing through Yuebaling Yuezhou, which was later Yueyang, and plagiarized Meng Haoran's Wangdongting Lake on Yueyang Tower, which is also a famous building in the world, and gave it to Prime Minister Zhang, and changed the name of the poem to Dengyueyang Tower, and then grandly put the famous poem "August Lake level, the connotation is too clear." The steaming cloud Mengze shook Yueyang City. If you want to help without a boat, you will be ashamed and sage. Sitting and watching the anglers, there is nothing to envy the fish. It was written on the wall of the castle tower, and then the inscription was taken as a souvenir.
The appearance of such a good poem has attracted countless scholars and literati to observe and praise, and then whenever people talk about this poem, especially the background of the source of this poem, they will mention the story of Wugong Hou Wu Yuanqing and Princess Changle eloped from Beijing and had to say it and didn't dare to talk nonsense.
The little son heard another sister Dongyang talk about it in private, and this poem alone can make Sister Changle's name go down in history, and literati of all dynasties will talk about it from time to time in the future.
Then the little son remembered it in his heart, and the little girl also wanted others to talk about herself often, so when Changle said that Wu Yuanqing was not a poet, the little son followed Gao Yang, Ankang and other sisters clapped their hands excitedly, and also said their ambitions.
"Come on, come on, let's go upstairs, and my brother-in-law will write a poem to you when we go upstairs."
