The Origin of Anqing Zhuangyuan Mansion

Zhuangyuanfu Street, north of Renmin Road in Zhuangyuanfu, formerly known as Zhuangyuanfang, was the residence of Liu Ruozai, the champion of the late Ming Dynasty.

According to Anqing Old Shadow, it was built in Chongzhen for four years.

The building was huge at that time, but Xianfeng was destroyed by soldiers in the eleventh year.

Liu Ruozai, a native of Hongzhen, Huaining, is familiar with classics and knowledgeable, and is good at painting, calligraphy, ink and flowers.

In the first year of Chongzhen (AD 1628), Wu was still a junior high school student.

After Dakui, he served as the banquet official of Emperor Chongzhen, and was quite "enlightened" to the last emperor. Due to physical reasons, he died shortly after being appointed as the official of the day.

Anqing was originally under the jurisdiction of Huaining County.

In feudal society, it is worthy of pride that the county won the first prize. Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Liu Ruozai has been the only champion in Huaining.

According to legend, Liu Ruozai's ancestral home was Jingde County, and Jingde County at that time came to compete for the champion.

There are many folk legends about Liu Zhuangyuan, most of which are bizarre coincidences and not sufficient evidence.
