Three lanes and seven lanes, Fuzhou people regard it as the cultural card of their city. Whether it is a festival or not, tourists here are always like ants. Tourists come from inside and outside the Great Wall and all over the world. They not only come to see the buildings and enjoy the scenery, but also listen to historical stories. The splendor of the three lanes and seven lanes belongs not only to Fuzhou, but also to the modern history of China.
Fuzhou people are not familiar with true knowledge, but seldom think about it. Why are the three lanes and seven lanes called "lanes"? Fuzhou people don't say "square", unlike the hutongs in Beijing and Shanghai, they all say it orally. "Fang" is a complex name with profound historical and cultural accumulation. In ancient times, "houses" were associated with the offices of senior officials. Sui Wang's official positions are left room, right room, concierge, temple and so on. After the Tang Dynasty, he became Prince Zuo Chunfang and Right Chunfang. Now if you look at Wenru Square, Guanglu Square and Yijin Square in the three lanes and seven lanes, you will know that they are neither royal nor hereditary. Hundreds of houses are surrounded by saddle-shaped undulating fences. The spring breeze goes straight into the central axis, and Yangqiao Lane, Langguan Lane, Tower Lane, Huang Xiang Lane, Anmin Lane, Gongxiang Lane and Jipi Lane are separated into two carriages. The weather is broad but not extravagant, there is no noble yamen and the threshold of halls and mansions, and there is no lion's power. It's just an ideal ladder for ancient literati to learn from Confucianism, get rich, and finally dress up and return home to enjoy auspicious asylum (Jipi). From the Eastern Jin Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, senior literati lived, but unlike Zhuqueqiao and Wuyi Lane in Xie 'an era. In the Tang Dynasty, it became a ruin full of weeds and flowers in Liu Yuxi's works. On the contrary, it successfully resisted the rise and fall of dynasties and thousands of years of erosion, and reached its peak in the late Qing Dynasty.
The wall is surprisingly high, even if there are red apricots out of the wall, it is hard to be amazing. However, there are actually waterside pavilions and miniature stages in the square, which seem to be pocket-sized compared with Jiangnan gardens. You can enter a winding place, or you can just visit and enjoy the homesickness of culture.
It can't be said that the wall is too high and the space is narrow and closed, but in the late Qing Dynasty, it was the most open. The Chinese nation has been invaded and is facing the crisis of national subjugation and extinction. The vast China sleeps in the dark, but this city far from the political and cultural center has sounded the thunder of history. The spirit of the earliest awakened historical figures shines all over China and becomes a beacon of modern ideological emancipation.
Lin Zexu's mother, the first person to open her eyes to see the world, was born here. Now, the Lin ancestral hall has become a memorial hall, and the ochre red wall has become more and more prominent in spirit with the passage of time. Lin Zexu's calligraphy couplets seem to have wet ink. The walls of the three lanes and seven alleys connected with it are still dark, and there is a sense of historical heaviness in the solemnity.
The patio is not too big. Looking up at the sky, you can only see one side. The cloister is tortuous and even narrow, and the garden is narrow and even cramped. However, in this not bright architectural framework, the grand ideas of the East and the West are accommodated. One step at a time, the courtyard is deep. The national disaster is at the forefront, and the ancestors' exploration of saving the country is getting heavier and heavier.
How many elites, from here to the front desk of China's modern history, have no hesitation. The color of the blood sacrifice Xuanyuan seems as bright as ever.
He is also a young man in his twenties and thirties. He first set out in Xu Lin and buried his head on the altar of the Reform Movement of 1898 in front of Wendell Dickinson's food market, followed by generous Lin Juemin and in front of the United States. Like Lin Juemin, Yan Fu went to Mawei Port from here, but Yan Fu went to Mawei Ship Administration School, the cradle of China.
Heroism and the love of children here.
From here, Lin Changmin was the first to publish the diplomatic fiasco of the great powers betraying China at the Paris Peace Conference, which became the fuse of the May 4th Movement. He was sent to China with his 16-year-old daughter Lin. Lin later met Xu Zhimo and produced an earth-shattering but confusing story. A century has passed, and the romantic color has not faded. Without the story of this talented woman, my father Lin Changmin's historical achievements as a diplomat may never be forgotten by future generations.
It is important to read history carefully, but reflection is more important. Sometimes, what is significant to history, forgotten, and insignificant to history has become gossip, online hype, and after-dinner talk.
After Lin Juemin's wife fled, her residence was bought by a family named Xie, and later she became a talented woman. Her literary achievements during the May 4th Movement, coupled with her rare longevity of living to a hundred years old, increased her literary taste, even though she lived in Fuzhou for only a few months.
History is full of contingency, and we should read it carefully to understand the profound meaning of contingency. When Xu Lin went to Beijing, he was in high spirits and became the core figure of the Reform Movement of 1898. He passed by Hangzhou and invited Uncle Lin to go with him. Lin Shu failed only because of his first marriage. History cannot be assumed, but it can be imagined. Nan Fan, a gifted scholar in Fuzhou, said that if this were not the case, there might be one more martyr in Beijing Caishikou, but was there one less conservative during the May 4th New Culture Movement? Xu Lin is the son-in-law of Shen Baozhen, while Shen Baozhen is the nephew and son-in-law of Lin Zexu. The fusion of marriage and blood relationship and patriarchal clan tradition made them shoulder the surging national movement without hesitation.
A legend in China's modern history happened at Gongxiang 1 1. The humiliating defeat of the two Opium Wars and the rise of the Westernization Movement were all decisions made by determined soldiers. Lin Zexu's successor, Zuo, was ordered to form a navy, invited Shen Baozhen out of the mountain, formed a maritime navy, and built a school by shipbuilding. This nephew and son-in-law of Lin Zexu is in a dilemma. According to the usual practice, people in this province are not allowed to be officials in this province, and this case is particularly broken. Dating can be self-specialized and undisturbed. When Ding You was less than three years old, Shen Baozhen supervised the Nanyang Navy, established the Beiyang Navy and established the most powerful navy in Asia at that time. Although it failed later, Yan Fu, the heroic Wu Jia Deng Shichang, and even the first generation of naval generals of the Republic of China all came out from here. Zuo Gu Gong Xiang 1 1, such an important historical event, was almost completely annihilated, and even Fuzhou people didn't know its details. I'm afraid the name Shen Baozhen is not as familiar as Lin in China.
Northeast entrance, Song Xining three years, Guanglu Qing years, Fuzhou satrap Cheng Shimeng frequented and wrote Guanglu Yongtai. Hundreds of years later, Lin Shu opposed Chen Yan's poems in Guanglu Yintai. In people's impression, Lin Shu is only a conservative of the May 4th New Culture Movement. In fact, when the Revolution of 1911 broke out, he was a soldier crying and singing in the streets of Fuzhou, and Chen Yan wrote 10 articles ranging from 0755 to 79000, which made him an avant-garde of the Reform Movement. Yintai has left many golden sounds, kind words and feelings of home and country, and the stone pier of Guanglu Yintai will tremble for it day and night. Nowadays, tourists are bustling and twittering, and only that stone keeps a cold silence.
Chen and Zheng were of the same clan, both court counselors, and finally parted ways. After being frustrated politically, Chen devoted himself to hometown education and founded Fujian Excellent Normal School, now Fujian Normal University. For more than a hundred years, his string songs have been sung. The school was built by frustrated people in officialdom at that time. However, the context is unexpectedly connected with my life, which makes me enjoy the happiness and honor of being a teacher here for decades. His friend Zheng later became the prime minister of the puppet Manchukuo, and his reputation surpassed that of Chen. However, his name is the dirtiest in the spiritual treasure house of three lanes and seven alleys.
Speaking of fame, Fuzhou people regard Lin as a celebrity in Fuzhou. In fact, she has lived in Fuzhou for more than twenty days. The place where she lives is separated from my neighborhood by a wall for decades, but I don't know. It's just that in recent years, there has been a "Garden" sign at the door, indicating that she lives here. As a neighbor, I feel nothing. However, occasionally, young literary women come to take pictures with umbrellas and treat me as a companion. I gave in at a loss and giggled at my orders, but I was sad. Because, nearby, there is Linsen's former residence, which was left out in the cold in front of the heroes who opposed the Qing Dynasty and led the Jiujiang Uprising during the Revolution of 1911. Every time I pass by, I always wander and carefully read the words on the sign in front of the door.
Under the beacon of China's thoughts on modern history, the key words of this paper are heroic achievements and beautiful women's lace, which are dislocation and meditation.
