What I know Zhu: Chapter 21 Governing Nankang
Twenty-three years after the Chief Cabinet Secretary of Tongan left office, Zhu had no choice but to serve as the local governor at the insistence of the imperial court. During his tenure, Zhu was generous, diligent in customs, and made great efforts to govern, leaving many little-known but valuable political affairs.

In five years (1 178), Shi Hao became prime minister again, eager to become a sage, and made up his mind to use Zhu.

? Shi Hao, a native of Mingzhou (now Ningbo, Zhejiang), was born in the fifth year of Chongning in the Northern Song Dynasty (1 106) and was a scholar in Shaoxing in the 14th year of the Southern Song Dynasty (1 144). When Song Gaozong decided to become the heir, Shi Hao was a professor at Wang Fu University and helped Zhao Shen become a prince. After Song Xiaozong (Zhao Shen) ascended the throne, Shi Hao actively supported Yue Fei's rehabilitation and was soon promoted to participate in government affairs. In the first year of Longxing (1 163), he served as the right servant of Shangshu (right phase). At that time, Zhang Jun and others advocated the Northern Expedition, while Shi Hao and others defended it. Song Xiaozong imperial edict directly ordered Zhang Jun's Northern Expedition. Shi Hao believes that military decision-making bypasses the Prime Minister and needs his use. In order to maintain the authority of the Prime Minister, he resigned. In the fifth year of Xichun (1 178), Shi Hao was reinstated as the right assistant minister of Shangshu. Paying homage to, history, grandparents and grandchildren is a big family in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Shi Hao is famous for recommending talents. It was suggested to him that Zhu was strong-willed and should not be an official in the DPRK, but should be released outside. Accepted this suggestion, and in August ordered Zhu to understand the situation of Nankang army and be responsible for providing advice to farmers. In Song Dynasty, the most basic local administrative regions were states and counties, which were directly subordinate to the central government. In addition to states and counties, "armies" have been established in important military areas. In the Song Dynasty, the troops were divided and the army was managed by civilians. Will not lead troops, only lead troops in wartime. This should be one of the main reasons for the low combat effectiveness of the Song army.

At the beginning of the Northern Song Dynasty, all the troops were at the county level. By the middle of the Northern Song Dynasty, there was a difference between the troops at the state level and the troops at the county level. By the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, all the county-level troops were integrated with the county, and the troops in the Southern Song Dynasty were equal to the state.

The supreme commander of the army is Zhijun, which means to temporarily preside over the local army. Ren Zhu Xi knows Nankang Army and is responsible for persuading farmers internally, that is, he is in charge of both local army and civil affairs. Nankang Army is located in Jiangxi, which has jurisdiction over Xing Zi (now Lushan City), Duchang and Jianchang (now Yongxiu and Anyi County), and its military rule is in Xing Zi County.

Zhu has no intention of career, so he excused himself. In September, the court refused to accept Zhu's resignation request and ordered him to take office. In October, Zhu wrote to the shrine. 1 1 month, the court ordered again that Zhu should not be invited to the shrine and go directly to his post. /kloc-in October/February, the court issued another official document urging Zhu to take office.

By the end of the sixth year (1 178), Zhu had to leave Beijing for his post at the strong request of the imperial court. Before the appointment, Zhu went to the temple again. Shortly after Zhu left, the court sent another urging document to Zhu's family of five husbands.

On the way, Zhu also fantasized that the court would take back his order. When I arrived in Qianshan County on February 4th, I stayed at Chongshou Temple, waiting for the court's reply to his invitation to the temple. Lu Jiuyuan rushed to meet the news. They devoted themselves to exploring Neo-Confucianism. 14, at Chongshou Temple, Zhu went to pay homage again.

In March, the imperial court once again urged Zhu to take office below. At this time, friends Zhang Wei and Zhu also wrote to urge him to take up his post in Nankang. Persuaded by friends, Zhu unexpectedly arrived in the county on March 29th.

At this time, it has been 23 years since Zhu last served as Tongan's master book.

Nankang Prefecture was Zhu's first local official at the age of 50.

A new broom sweeps clean. Immediately after Zhu took office, he issued the List of Nankang Army and issued three decrees: First, he visited the people extensively to benefit the disease; The second is to let the elderly teach and discipline children; The third is to persuade people to send their children to school. These three laws can be summarized as "relieving people's strength, strengthening customs and encouraging learning from others".

Zhu Yisheng devoted himself to education, and after taking office, he was most concerned about education. Zhu goes to give lessons to the students every five days, and he has a good time. Under the influence of Zhu, the local "scholar style changed suddenly".

Zhu took spreading Confucianism as his important duty, and established Lianxi Temple in Nankang, which was shared by Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi.

Mr. Lianxi was Zhou Dunyi. He met Nankang Army in the second year of Xining (1069) and got along well with Lushan Mountain in China. In the fifth year of Xining (1072), he resigned from his post and retired to Lotus Peak in Lushan, where he founded Lianxi Bookstore, named the stream in front of the door "Lianxi" and moved his mother's grave to the neighborhood. In the sixth year of Xining (1073), he died in Lianxi Bookstore at the age of 57.

In order to commemorate Zhou Dunyi, Jiujiang City built the Lianxi Tomb, established the Zhou Dunyi Memorial Hall, opened the Lianxi Park, and named the area under its jurisdiction Lianxi District.

It can be seen that it is understandable that Zhu established Mr. Lianxi Temple in Nankang Army at that time. Zhu also attached importance to the Nine Grades of Zhengzheng, and set up the Five Sages Hall to offer sacrifices to Tao Yuanming, Liu Huan, Liu Shu, Chang Li and Chen Kui.

Tao Yuanming need not be introduced. Liu Huan and Liu Shu are father and son. Liu Huan, famous for his upright character, resigned and lived in seclusion in Lushan Mountain for 30 years. Su Shi, Su Zhe, Huang Tingjian and Ceng Gong. Everyone respects Liu Huan, and Ouyang Xiu once wrote a poem "Lushan Mountain is really high" to praise Liu Huan. Liu Shu, who devoted himself to the study of history, is the deputy editor-in-chief of Zi Tong Zhi Jian. In order to be a good deputy editor, he dutifully collected books and copied them everywhere. Because of rheumatism, his right hand was completely abolished, and he still insisted on writing books. It is estimated that writing with the left hand also caused eye diseases, which is estimated to be high myopia.

Li Chang was born in Jianchang (now Yongxiu) of Nankang Army. After he entered imperial academy in the first year of your life (1049), he donated 9000 books and founded the first private library. Calling for the establishment of Quanzhou Maritime Department is an important promoter of the Maritime Silk Road; Incorporated into China's first accounting monograph "Yuan You Accounting Records". He is a close friend of Su Shi. He used to be Su Zhe's boss and Huang Tingjian's uncle.

Chen Gui, a native of Shaxian County (now Fujian), was famous for reprimanding Cai Jing, Cai Bian and Zhang Dun, and settled in Lushan Mountain in his later years.

You will find it interesting to strip away history. The Five Sages Temple built by Zhu in Nankang is exactly the same as Susong Temple and Temple built in Tongan.

In the summer of the sixth year (1 178), it was time to really test Zhu's ruling level. This year is a year of severe drought, which lasts from July to 1 1 month.

In the face of the disaster, Zhu repeatedly called officials from Duchang and Jianchang counties to discuss famine relief and spare no effort to provide disaster relief. 40 disaster relief placards have been issued continuously, and 30,000 official funds have been allocated to buy rice for disaster relief. And mobilize social elites, open their positions and overcome difficulties. Those who have contributed to disaster relief will be reported to the court and rewarded.

At the same time, Zhu actively attended the imperial court, declared the disaster situation, and requested to exempt the tax money from the three counties under his jurisdiction. A * * * ascended the throne of 14. The imperial court responded by exempting the Miao army from 47,000 stones. Zhu also asked neighboring counties for help and got 30,000 yuan and 65,438+1000,000 stone rice. It has jurisdiction over three counties, 35 grain depots and disaster relief fields, benefiting 2 17900 victims.

Zhu also adopted the method of "taking work as relief" to ask for money to build Nankang stone dike, which not only solved the problem of eating for many victims, but also provided safe shelter for passing ships. Later generations named this dike "Ziyang Dike" in memory of Zhu.

In this disaster relief operation, Zhu's leadership has been fully reflected.

In seven years (1 179), Zhu attached great importance to agricultural production because of last year's famine. In February, during the spring sowing season, Zhu issued the "Order to Persuade Agriculture", demanding intensive farming, which was in line with local conditions.

China was founded on agriculture, and all previous dynasties attached great importance to agriculture. After the Song Dynasty, on February 15th every year, state and county officials went to the countryside to give advice to farmers and distributed ideas. However, many people resent persuading farmers to preach the truth, show off their literary talent and be divorced from agricultural reality. Under the impetus of Zhu, the movement to persuade farmers after the Southern Song Dynasty changed the previous bureaucratic style of empty talk and preaching.

Wang Wenlin, the county magistrate of Xing Zi, made a comprehensive summary of mulberry planting at that time and wrote a monograph on mulberry planting methods. Zhu published "Shen Yu Geng Sang Bang" and reprinted the monograph to local farmers, so that they mastered the mulberry planting and cutting techniques.

In February this year, what made Zhu sad was that his good friend Zhang Wei passed away. Only one year later, he left him, and he became the only Zhu among the "Three Sages of Southeast Asia".

Lushan Mountain, the first holy mountain in China, is within the territory of Nankang Army. Knowing the Nankang Army, Zhu naturally became attached to Lushan Mountain. In addition to handling official business, Zhu and his friends visited Lushan 16 times, left ink stone carvings in Jianjiguan, Wolonggang, Zuishi, Wuru Temple, Gulianquan and Wulaofeng, built pavilions at Lushan 13, repaired four bridges, restored and built Wolong Temple, Qingtuan Temple, Huigui Temple and other buildings, and wrote "Lushan Zayong"

What is more respectable is that Zhu also collated Taiji Tongzhi, revised Shi Zhuan, supplemented Yu Meng Yao, and collated Notes on Four Books. All these were completed by Zhu in Nankang Army for 2 years and 28 days.

In the eighth year of Xichun (1 18 1), on March 27th, Zhu was appointed as the Changping Tea Salt Officer of Jiangnan West Road and bid farewell to Nankang.

Nankang people have not forgotten Zhu. In order to commemorate him, people set up the memorial archway of "True Confucianism", and built Liulaotang, Ancestral Temple, Erxian Temple and Ziyang Temple. In addition to Ziyang dike, there are Ziyang Gate, Ziyang Yihuicang, Ziyang Dangui and Ziyang Road. It seems that the people of Nankang really love Zhu.
