Historical story
Wenchang was originally a star official name, that is, Wenquxing or Wenxing, also known as Wenchang Emperor, which emphasized reading and fame. Therefore, Wenxing is highly respected by scholars. Five years after the completion of Wenchang Tower in Gaoming County, the brothers of Ruan Yong Village in this county, that is, Daxianghe District and Dalun District, all entered the exam with the same list.
District Dalun was entrusted with a heavy responsibility and became friends with Guangdong Prime Minister Hai Rui in North Korea. District Daxiang was ordered to leave Beijing and visit all provinces. He wrote poems based on the sufferings of the people he saw, created a poetic style before the atmosphere, and was known as the originator of Lingnan Poetry School. District Dalun, District Daxiang and their father, District Yi, who was an official in the DPRK, were called District Three Masters, which were extremely prominent figures in Gaoming history.
