After vicissitudes of stone monuments
â—Ž Cui Bin
The princes and nobles are keen on the statue.Driven by them, a large -scale stone carvings were promoted across the country.
In the four years of Wuding (573) in Wuding, Northern Qi, Lou Dingyuan, Qingzhou Assassin, personally presided over and created three tall Buddha statues in Nanyang Temple in Nanyang CityEssenceLegend has it that he asked the Emperor of the Northern Qi to write inscriptions, and at the same time sent people to write inscriptions, engraved with monuments.In the first half of the year, the Buddha statue and the statue were completed. In the second half of the year, the number of Nanyang Temple written by the emperor arrived in Qingzhou.The huge Buddha statue and stele have increased the influence of Nanyang Temple.But the inscription did not mention this. Is there really a high -profile handwriting on the monument?This matter is doubtful.
This monument is "Sikong Gongqing Prefectures Stranging History Linghuai King".Because of its huge regulations, it is also known as "Daqi Bei".
The monument is 4.44 meters high and 1.6 meters wide. The head of the monument consists of a dragon and a Buddha statue.The body of the monument is Lishu, with a total of 29 lines, a full line of 58 words, a total of 1635 words in the original text, and there are 1500 words in existing.The monument is engraved with the four characters of "Longxing Temple" in the eunuch of Beihai County in the Tang Dynasty.Daqi Bei is the largest stone monument in the existing Northern and Southern Dynasties. It is designated as a national first -class cultural relics and is currently in the Qingzhou Museum.
From the Northern and Southern Dynasties to the Northern Song Dynasty, Nanyang Temple has always been the leading temple in Qingzhou.The Tang Dynasty was renamed Longxing Temple.During the Southern Song Dynasty, due to the waste of war, the monks after the rest of their lives collected the destroyed Buddha statue and buried it underground.The statue of Longxing Temple was reproduced until 1996.
The characters mentioned in the inscription, Lou Dingyuan, one of the "Eight Gui" of the Northern Qi, is the second son of Lou Zhao, the mother of Queen Wu Ming.Since the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Lou family has had a good relationship with the royal family, and has been fighting around, and has made great achievements. As a result, the Lou family is a senior official.Lou Dingyuan got the ancestral care of his ancestors, and the young man had ambitions. Unfortunately, he was greedy and sullen, and his reputation was not good, making the Lou family fall from then on.
At that time, the Emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty Gao Weiyan was young and listened to politics by Queen Mother Hu.Queen Mother Hu reuses corrupt officials and scholars, resulting in dark officials.The ministers jointly impeached and Shi Kai, so Gao Weikai degraded the officials to Luzhou.He Kai was unwilling to leave, so he found Lou Dingyuan, who was in charge of the guard of the palace, and used jewelry and beauty to give gifts.Lou Dingyuan, who was greedy for money, asked Queen Mother Hu to quickly change his attitude. He and Shi Kai not only left the capital, but also became prime minister.Lou Dingyuan was benefited as a result and was promoted to the history of Qingzhou.At that time, he was called a villain and was very "greedy" and was embarrassed with the courts power.Later, the crime was exposed, and he died.
Read the inscription first, the style of style is mighty, full of philosophical thoughts and romantic imagination.There are a lot of phrases in it, and interpretation in vernacular also feels very feeling:
"Thousands of rivers are running towards the sea, the sea is spectacular, but it is finally turned into hills.The majestic mountains will become a stone that will be grinded.People are in the world, and the color is in a hurry.. In the dark, the wisdom is lit.Can its dangerous peaks be hidden?But it is difficult to bear it again.Some are touted with Lou Dingyuan naked:
"From the beginning to put on official uniforms, your official position always associates Beidou Star, reaching the situation of Wenchang Star, you stand up like a Phoenix, like a tiger, like a tiger, like a tiger, like a tigerOverlooking ... Being a thorn history here in Qingzhou is the highest reputation of the government officials, and it is above the princes ... "
Concentrated, the family has become strong. As soon as the curtain is opened, the villagers have changed; the crown has just appeared, and the folklore has begun to change.Think of spiritual wealth to make people rich, how can it receive the slightest people?
In the inscription, you can also see the scene of the statue of the Nanyang Temple at that time.At that time, the Nanyang Temple, there was a bustling city on the left, and the deep valley of the deep valley.The pagoda is towering and the hall stands, which is extremely solemn.The people of the scholars came one after another.As soon as I ordered the fragrant candle, I saw the smoke filled.When the statue was completed, it was majestic and magnificent.At that time, on the huge monument, there were more than 1,600 words in Shudan, and it was completed in just 27 days. This is amazing.
From the perspective of calligraphy works, the Daqi Bei is based on Lishu, and the font shows a square appearance, which is well -proportioned.The change of the apartment is in integration, and Tibetan is absolutely within the square inch.Kang Youwei believes that the northern stone monument should be represented by Wei Bei, while Northern Qi calligraphy is not short of good works.Later, Beiqi calligraphy was discovered one after another, countless, the style has changed a lot, and it was rare in the past.This monument is engraved with the book style of Beiqi, with a flat and smoothness, round and implicit, restrained, and strong pen.
The monument has gone through vicissitudes.During the year of the Northern Qiqi, this monument was built in Nanyang Temple in Qingzhou.In the early Ming Dynasty, Longxing Temple was ruined, and this monument was damaged.The King of the Ming Dynasty moved it to the north of the city. When it moved, it was broken, and it was tied with an iron hoop.During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, Yidu County rebuilt the city and shifted it to the Wenchang Temple, where it was placed.When Li Daichun was aware of the government, he took out the gold and repaired it on the Wenchang Temple.After the founding of New China, in 1979, this monument was moved into the puppet garden.The big monument passed down, comparable to a miracle.
