Hengshui Jizhou ancient culture

Historical Evolution The name of jizhou city originated from ancient Jizhou and can be traced back to the ancient times when Chinese civilization was founded. According to Records of the Historian, Dayu's flood control, "opening Kyushu, connecting Jiulu, vicious Jiuhe and crossing Jiusan", according to the general trend of mountains and rivers, divided wild states and established Kyushu, including Jizhou, ranked first.

In ancient times, Jizhou had a vast territory, "including the northeast of the big river (Yellow River)", while Er Ya Shi Di recorded that "Jizhou was called between the two rivers", that is, the vast area between the Yellow River and Liaohe River. The territory of ancient Jizhou includes Hebei and Shanxi provinces and the vast areas north of the Yellow River in Henan, south of Inner Mongolia and west of Liaohe River in Liaoning, which is the highest in Kyushu. In ancient times, Jizhou was still the land of the imperial capital, and Yao Shunyu and san huang were all in Jizhou, which was known as "the state of the world, and the son of heaven always lived there". Kyushu had a far-reaching influence in ancient times and condensed the strong cultural complex of the Chinese nation. Jizhou, known as the "head of Kyushu", is famous all over the world and has been sung for generations. Hebei province, referred to as "Ji" for short, also came from ancient Jizhou.

In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, in the sixth year of Gao (20 1 BC), the old city of Jizhou (named New Capital) became the county seat, which was successively called New Capital, New Capital, Guang Chuan, Lechengguo and Anping. During the Three Kingdoms period, Jizhou was located in Xindu, and then Xindu became the administrative center of state, county and county. Especially in the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, Jizhou has always been the "Grand Capital State" assisting Kyoto, and Jizhou City has always been the local administrative, economic and cultural center, which has played an important role in historical development. Since the Qing Dynasty, the jurisdiction has been gradually reduced, and Jizhou has been changed to Zhili Prefecture, which governs Nangong, Wuyi, Hengshui, Zaoqiang and Xinhe counties. In the second year of the Republic of China (19 13), Jizhou, Zhili Prefecture, was abolished and it began to be called Jixian County. 1993, with the approval of the State Council, Jixian was removed from the county to build a city (county-level city).

Before Qin and Han Dynasties, there were so-called "Kyushu" and "Twelve States" in China. Call Kyushu Ji, Yan, Qing, Xu, Yang, Jing, Yu, Liang and Yong. Erya is called Kyushu Ji, You, Yan, Ying, Xu, Yang, Jing, Yu and Yong. Ji is divided into Ji and You. Known as "Kyushu", Ji, You, He, Yan, Qing, Yang, Jing, Yu and Yong. I can be divided into three states: I'm beautiful, I'm quiet, and I'm happy. Yaodian was divided into 12 states, which means that after Yu's flood control, Shun divided "Kyushu" into three states, namely, seclusion, harmony and camp, making it 12 states. But "Kyushu" and "Twelve States" are legendary local administrative divisions. Jizhou, as an actual administrative division, began in the Han Dynasty.

Historical Celebrities In the long history of Jizhou, many outstanding figures emerged, including court officials and literati. These celebrities have made certain contributions to historical progress and social development from different aspects and are admired by future generations. The allusion of "hanging a beam over one's head" comes from Sun Jing, a native of Jizhou in Han Dynasty, and has become a model of hard study. Tong Pi was an outstanding general in the Eastern Han Dynasty. He helped Liu Xiu achieve great things and was known as the "King of Medicine". During the Sixteen Kingdoms Period of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Feng Ba and Hong Feng from Jizhou were the monarch of Beiyan. Feng Taihou, a female politician in the Northern Wei Dynasty, is a native of Moon Village in the east of Jizhou. Her sinicization measures have had a far-reaching impact on later generations. There are also many masters of Confucian classics in Jizhou: Liu Zhuo, a Confucian scholar and astronomer in Sui Dynasty; Father Kong Chao, a famous minister and writer in Tang Dynasty; Translator of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, famous monk Shi, modern martial artist Song Mailun, and modern ancient book expert Lei Mengshui are too numerous to mention.

Sun Jing, a native of Xindu (now Sun Lizheng Village, Jizhou Town, jizhou city) in the Han Dynasty, is a story of Sun Jing's diligence and studiousness. "Taiping Magnolia" contains: "I am eager to learn, and I will never stop in the morning and evening." Sun Jing often studies hard all night. In order to eliminate drowsiness, it originated from the beam of the roof. If I bend my head to sleep, I will be alert. Sun Jing studied hard with his unique "hanging beam" spirit and finally became a well-known scholar at that time. Later generations highly praised Sun Jing's spirit of "hanging the beam" to study hard, and combined it with the story of Su Qin's "reading for sleep, leading a cone to stab its shares" in the Warring States period to educate students. In Saint Amethyst, there is a saying that "the head hangs on the beam, the awl sticks to the stock, but it doesn't teach, and it is diligent, like fireflies and snow, but its family is poor and there is no end to learning". Sun Jing, Su Qin and Che Yin's Firefly and Sun Kang's Snow are all examples of hard work.

Feng Taihou, a native of Xindu, Changle County (now Moon Village, Jizhou Town, jizhou city), was an outstanding female reformer in the Northern Wei Dynasty. Feng Taihou has carried out comprehensive and thorough reforms in politics, economy, culture, ideology and customs. Such as: advocate sinicization, advocate education, and implement the system of equal land. After a series of reforms presided over by Feng Taihou, the Northern Wei Dynasty became more and more stable, which laid a solid foundation for the large-scale implementation of the sinicization policy after Emperor Xiaowen came to power and had a far-reaching impact on later generations.
