Yes, here's the evidence: one local chronicles identified
that Laozi's hometown was in Guoyang, not just based on Guoyang County Chronicles in the late Qing Dynasty, but by local chronicles. Such as "Ming Yi Tong Zhi? Fengyang House "and" The Imperial Collection of Four Treasures "? "Forty-eight Annals of Jiangnan" and "Annals of Daming Zhongdu" all recognized: "Tianjing Palace is 121 miles east of Bo County, where Lao Zi was born". "the Qing dynasty unified annals? Yingzhou House: "Tianjing Palace is located in Fu 'an Town, 121 Li east of Bozhou". Boxian annals: "Tianjing Palace, 121 miles east of the county, is the place where I was pregnant". However, when Guoyang County was newly established in 1864 in the Qing Dynasty, more than 111 miles away from 74 miles east of Bo County were all included in Guoyang County system, so the birthplace of Laozi was located in Tianjing Palace, which is located in 121 miles east of Bo County and five kilometers north of Guoyang County.
the second building of the temple is remembered, and the two places in Kuxian County are the same.
Sima Qian's Historical Records records: "Laozi is also from Qurenli, Lixiang Town, Ku County." And "Were"? "History of the Nation": "Chen Ku County, which is called Xiang in the Spring and Autumn Period, depends on the hometown". In the Eastern Han Dynasty, when Bian Shao was building the Laozi Temple (changed to Taiqing Palace in the Tang Dynasty and Tianjing Palace in the Yuan Dynasty), he was asked to write the inscription "Laozi Ming", bearing in mind that Laozi was "a native of Chu Xiang County" and "Xiangxian County was barren after the Spring and Autumn Period, but now it is bitter". "King James Siku Quanshu"? Jiangnan Tongzhi Volume 35: "The ancient city of Xiangxian is at the foot of Xiangshan Mountain in the northwest of Suzhou, and it was Song Yi in the Spring and Autumn Period." Mr. Gao Heng, a modern scholar, said: "However, it is said that Laozi is a native of Xiangxian County, and it is also true to explore the past. It is said that Laozi is a bitter county person, and according to this, it is also said. Although the second statement is different, the two places are one. " It is common to change the name and expand the ancient and modern county system. Today, Tianjing Palace in Guoyang County belonged to Funing Town, Funing Town, Bozhou County, Guide Prefecture, Henan Province in the Yuan Dynasty. In the Qing Dynasty, it was under the jurisdiction of Bozhou, Fengyang Prefecture, Jiangnan Road (now Jiangsu and Anhui provinces). At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the powerful countries continued to annex the weak countries, and King Chu Ling invaded and became the father of the city, which was only 25 kilometers away from Laozi's hometown in Guoyang County. In 658 BC, the King of Chu conquered the Song Dynasty, a weak country, with a strong country surpassing the territory of Chen State. The so-called Ku County of Chen State and Xiang County of Song State both belonged to Chu State. Because Laozi in Historical Records is "more than 161 years old or more than 211 years old", it makes sense to write Laozi as a native of Song Guoxiang County, Chu Xiangxian County and Kuxian County. The key is where Xiangxian is today? Where is Kuxian today? "The shortage of Xiangxian County is bitter today", which proves that Xiangxian County is bitter and bitter. Where is Xiangxian County? Today, it is within 11-25 kilometers northeast of Laozi's hometown in Guoyang County. There are still seventeen villages with the surname Xiang, and further northeast, it is only more than 51 kilometers away from Xiang County under Xiangshan Mountain. Therefore, it is credible that Taiqing Palace in Guoyang County belonged to Xiangxian County, but Luyi County, Henan Province, which is 111 kilometers away from the foot of Xiangshan Mountain and 71 kilometers away from Tianjing Palace in Guoyang County, has never been said to belong to Xiangxian County since ancient times.
Three-time Rebuilding Monument Certificate
Located in Tianjing Palace, five kilometers north of Guoyang County, more than 21 monuments have been built and repaired since the Yuan Dynasty. Although most of them have been broken, Zhang Qiyan wrote the inscription: "Tianjing Palace is the place where the old gentleman was born". "The palace is in Funing Town, the father of the city". Today, Tianjing Palace in the north of Guoyang County is only more than ten kilometers away from Funing Town, the father of the city. What makes sense to belong to this town? The Taiqing Palace in Luyi County, Henan Province is more than 51 kilometers away from Funing Town, and it has never belonged to the town. In the Ming Dynasty, Zhengde Chongzhen rebuilt the (disabled) monument: "The calendar has been tested for generations, and Tianjing Palace was built in the eighth year of Yan Xi. Go west to Bozhou (Bo County) for a hundred miles. The birthplace of the old gentleman in Tianjing Palace ... Tianjing Palace is surrounded by two waters in the vortex valley ... The valley water has since entered the vortex river in the east. " In the Taiqing Palace in Luyi County, there is no valley water around it. In the eighth year of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, the tablet of the Taoist ancestor Lao Jun: "The Taoist ancestor Li Laojun ... had a carefree garden because of his birthday ... The remains of the Taoist Temple of the Fairy Palace are still there, such as the old Laozi Temple in Tianjing Palace on the north bank of Xiaohezi (Gushui) in the northeast of Zuoyimen Town (now Bo County and Bozhou)." Thirty miles northeast of Zuoyimen Town, its location is Tianjing Palace, five kilometers north of Guoyang County.
the hometown of Laozi is located in the east of Boda, and there are many records in the past dynasties, such as the unified records of Daming, the unified records of Daqing and the records of Boxian, all of which are recorded as "Bozhou East 121 Li". "King James Siku Quanshu"? Jiangnan Tongzhi: "The old governance of Bitter County was in the east of Bo County". "Tianjing Palace, where Laozi was pregnant, is in Fuan Town, East of Zhou". Song Zhenzong's Preface to the Imperial Court's Ode to the Taiqing Palace: "Those who worship the Taiqing Palace are among the best in the world, and ... the idea is different from the left". It is said that Laozi's hometown is in Bodong and Qiaozuo, which is now Guoyang County in Anhui Province, not Luyi County in Henan Province.
five accounts of Zhuangzi
Zhuangzi? Tianyun says, "Confucius walked for fifty years, but he didn't know the Tao, so he saw Lao Dan in the south." Where is Pei? Ma Xulun, a famous modern scholar, said, "The so-called physiognomist is Hanshu? Geography "Pei County Phase". Therefore, Confucius' seeing Lao Dan from Peipei in the south should be the phase of Peipei in the south, that is, seeing Lao Dan in Laozi's hometown in Guoyang County today, and by no means referring to seeing Lao Dan in Taiqing Palace in Luyi County, Henan Province, which is neither Peipei nor an animal sign.
where the water in the valley of the Six Vortex falls into the vortex
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the inscription of Laozi was written by Shao Fengzhao: "Laozi, a native of Chuxiang County, is also ... where the water is swirling, the sun is shining". "Notes on Water Classics" Volume 23: "Valley water has since entered vortex water in the east". According to the second volume of Atlas of Chinese History, the map of 64-65 in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Wujia River, which surrounds both sides of Laozi's hometown in Guoyang County, enters the vortex for several miles. Therefore, the Laojun Temple, which is five kilometers north of Guoyang County, is not only the place where "the water in the vortex is in the sun" but also the place where "the grain water enters the vortex water", while the Taiqing Palace in Luyi County, Henan Province is both the shadow of the vortex water and the place where no grain water enters the vortex.
Well No.79 still exists
Zhang Shoujie's "Justice in Historical Records" quoted "Kudi Zhi": "Ku County is located in Guyang County, Bozhou, with Laozi's house and temple, and nine wells still exist in the temple". Now Tianjing Palace (also known as Laozi Temple) in the north of Guoyang County has found nine wells coexisting, which was built for Jiulong Well, a unique wonder in the world in the Spring and Autumn Period. However, there are no nine wells in Taiqing Palace in Luyi County, Henan Province, and only a few fine dragons are carved on the stone fence of one well.
Eight-food Li Chenghui
Sweet, sour and purplish red plums are a good fruit that people love to eat. Now people in Laozi's hometown in Guoyang County still eat plums instead of plums, and they are called Huizi. The reason is to avoid Lao Zi whose surname is Li, which is unique in the whole country.
The Nine-Three Palace is the only grand palace
In order to commemorate Lao Zi, it is known that there are more than 41 Taiqing Palace in China, and there are three in the valley of Guoyang, among which there are two in Guoyang, one is 15 kilometers northeast of Guoyang City, and the other is called the East Taiqing Palace by Guoyang people, that is, Tianjing Palace is 5 kilometers north of Guoyang County, and the West Taiqing Palace is 81 kilometers away from Guoyang County in Luyi County, Henan Province. Today, the Zhongjing Palace in Guoyang County, namely Tianjing Palace, is inscribed in the inscriptions of Yuan and Ming Dynasties with the grand scale of "three thousand mu of land and thousands of people in the food industry", which is incomparable to other Taiqing palaces. In addition, in Guoyang County, the Zhongjing Palace, namely Tianjing Palace, there is still a stone tablet marking the birthplace of Laozi.
