- Exit Beijing's Xizhimen, cross the Gaoliang Bridge, drive north to Haidian, pass Changchun Garden and go west not far to reach the foothills of Wanshou Mountain, where the Qingyi Garden on the bank of Kunming Lake is located. There were originally five gardens in this area, the largest of which was the Old Summer Palace. To the south of the Old Summer Palace was the Changchun Garden, which was originally the villa of Li Wei, Marquis of Wuqing in the Ming Dynasty. At that time, the Old Summer Palace was still the fourth son of the emperor, and it was later given to the garden by Emperor Yongzheng. The scale of Chunyuan is much larger than it, and it is the place where the saint ancestors often visited. On November 13, the 61st year of Kangxi, the place where dragons came to visit guests was in Changchun Garden. When Qianlong ascended the throne, perhaps because this place had been the site of the so-called "seizing of the direct descendants", he did not often have good luck. He devoted himself to running the Old Summer Palace for sixty years. Changchun Garden was called the "front garden" because it was located in front of the Old Summer Palace. '.
To the west of these two gardens are Wanshou Mountain, Yuquan Mountain and Xiangshan Mountain, collectively known as the "Three Mountains". Qingyi Garden under Wanshou Mountain, Jingming Garden under Yuquan Mountain, Jingyi Garden under Xiangshan Mountain, Old Summer Palace and Changchun Garden. The Spring Garden is collectively called the "Five Gardens". Among them, the buildings in Qingyi Garden are the most dilapidated. It was originally an excuse for Emperor Qianlong to celebrate his mother's 60th birthday, so he decided to build a garden on Wengshan Mountain and renamed it Kunming Lake and Wanshou Mountain. The garden was named Qingyi Garden.
It was not until the ninth year of Xianfeng that the emperor issued an edict to rebuild the Qingyi Garden. However, due to various reasons, although the project was completed, the effect was very poor. Therefore, the Ministry of Internal Affairs issued a report years ago, asking the emperor to issue an edict to rebuild the Qingyi Garden. .
The emperor was very enthusiastic about this matter and sent Yang San'er and Tateyama here many times to select the site. The most recent one was yesterday. Officials from the Construction Office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Lei Tingchang and the generals he brought with him, as well as several large companies The shopkeeper of our factory. He has been waiting there for a long time. After the ceremony, Lei Tingchang invited Yi Pei, Yixuan, Yang San'er and Li Shan to a temporary workhouse nearby. They rested to take shelter from the wind while listening to his explanation of the terrain.
"Qingyi Garden originally had eight sceneries. They were called Zai Shi Tang, Mo Miaoxuan, Long Yun Tower, Dan Bizhai, Shui Le Pavilion, Zhiyu Bridge, Xunshi Path, and Hanguang Cave. The size of the garden, judging from the names of these eight sceneries You will know later."
Thinking about it, sure enough, there is a hall, a pavilion, a first floor, a studio, a pavilion, in addition to a bridge, a cave, and even a boat. It is also called "Xunshi Path", and the scale seems to be not as big as that of an ordinary wealthy house. garden.
"I don't understand this level." Yi Pei frowned and said, "Emperor Qianlong loves gardening the most. Why don't you make any plans for such a good place with mountains and water?"
"No one is as smart as Mr. Wu, but this is a critical question." Lei Tingchang replied: "I also heard the old man in my family say, one. There is the Old Summer Palace, which is busy every day and can't care about anything else. Secondly, it is a temple for the Queen Mother to celebrate her birthday. Those fancy scenes are not suitable for installation; thirdly, this place can be used everywhere, and it is really difficult to fill it with pavilions and pavilions. "
"Oh!" Yi Xuan heard the last words he said. Paying deep attention, "This means that the place is too unorganized! Now we have to fill it with pavilions and pavilions. Isn't it difficult to do the same thing?"
"Yes!" Lei Tingchang replied calmly: "But it's not thankless to look at it that way. This mountain and this lake are natural beauties and well-arranged. They won't feel lax."
He unfolded the picture, pointed and said: "There are three parts of Qingyi Garden"
The first of these three parts is the Qinzheng Hall inside the East Palace Gate and the bedrooms in the west and back of the hall, where the ministers of civil and military affairs and their attendants stayed and worked; the second is the Yanshou Temple of the Great Baoen Hall, and the Yanshou Temple standing on Wanshou Mountain. The nine-story pagoda is located in the middle of the whole garden; the third is a depression to the east behind Wanshou Mountain, with hillsides on three sides, surrounded by a pool of clear water. Among the green pines and green bamboos, there are golden and jade towers of varying heights, The verandah and small bridge are unique. This is a small garden attached to Qingyi Garden: ¡®Huishan Garden¡¯.
According to the results of careful study by Lei Tingchang and those who will be famous craftsmen, they believe that the original site must be used to rebuild the garden. The Qinzheng Hall was renamed the Renshou Hall. The emperor's bedroom was built in the west of the hall, and behind it were the bedrooms of the mistresses of the harem headed by the queen. After the Renshou Hall, a large stage was built to the east of the queen's bedroom. Because the emperor has a long life, he can celebrate it here, and as a rule, all the ministers are given a seat to listen to the opera, so a huge stage is necessary.
In the middle of the whole garden, there is the ruins of Dabaoen Yanshou Temple, with a large hall built on the back of the mountain and facing the lake. It is regulated that the Renshou Hall should be worshiped as the emperor's main hall. A Buddhist pavilion was built behind the temple on the base of the pagoda, and pavilions were set up on the left and right along with the mountains. As for Huishan Garden in the back mountain, it might as well be rebuilt and restored to its original appearance.
Hearing this, it seems that the conversation has come to an end. Tateyama couldn't help but be a little disappointed, because according to Lei Tingchang's plan, it was basically the same as before, with no new ideas. Although the emperor's instructions for "novelty and fun" could be made with some tricks on the first floor and one pavilion, the whole layout was still untidy and empty. , I'm afraid it won't attract tourists.
Seeing this, he first mentioned: "They have an idea, and it's really good! It's called 'unique craftsmanship' in a book bag. Fifth and seventh masters might as well take a look."
Looking at a picture. Shaking out a long scroll, it looked like a painting of "Spring Dawn in the Han Palace" painted in fine brushwork. The Yi Pei brothers were struck by the fact that there seemed to be a brocade ribbon on the edge of the lake, leading directly to the palaces at both ends, merging them into one, and the layout suddenly changed.
"Look, Old Seven! Build a thousand-step corridor along the lake. This end is connected to the emperor's palace, and the other end leads to the main hall under the Buddha's pavilion. Aren't the two unrelated places tied together?"
Lei Tingchang can¡¯t say enough about the benefits of this corridor. The combination of two palaces is just one of them. The important function of Dingguan is that the corridor itself is a victory. Although it is more than 270 rooms long, it is winding and winding. Every few dozen steps, there is a pavilion for resting or leading to the lake. The pavilions and pavilions will be stopped by the jade chariot in the future, and you can look around and see the mountains and lakes in the morning light and evening shadow, shining straight into your lap sleeves, as if Wanshou Mountain and Kunming Lake are the rockery fish pond in your own garden.
?Looking north from the lake, it was originally empty and rocky, and you could only see the mountains from a distance. With this promenade, you feel that the green balustrade and the red pavilion are looming among the green trees, adding countless emotions. If there is a longevity or other celebration, tens of thousands of gauze lanterns will be hung on the corridor, shining in five colors, stacked like beads from east to west. Looking from afar at night, it will be even more spectacular. All in all, with this corridor, the layout of the garden can be fully realized.
From this point of view, everyone was very satisfied and believed that the emperor would also be happy with this design. But there is one trouble: if this pattern is implemented, the cost will be greatly increased.
*********************************************
Yi Pei couldn't hide his words in his heart. Even though he knew that Yi Pei's health was not well yet, he still went to the house in the snow and told him the matter in the name of New Year greetings. "If you must practice it, how much will it cost?" silver?"
"There is no detailed figure yet, but it must be around four million taels."
"More than that much?" Yi þ€ was surprised. The cost reported by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Industry was only a little over one million. I remember that I still felt very happy. I didn't have to spend too much, and I could make the emperor happy. This killed two birds with one stone. , then readily agreed, now the cost is much higher, how to solve it?
"Lao Liu? What do you think?"
"What did Shuping say about this?"
"I came to your house right after I heard what they said, and Shuping didn't know it yet!" Yi Pei said bitterly, "I think Li Yufu is playing tricks on this matter, and he said that a million taels would be enough. When the end is over, when the will is achieved, and things are getting better and better, who can stop me?"
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Yi þ€'s feeling very shameful at Li Shan's ingratiation techniques, but didn't say much, just said, "Should this matter be reported to the Holy Judge after the festival is over?"
"Not only is Yufu established, but Lao Qi is afraid that he will also have a hand in it! Lao Liu, you have to come forward in this matter."
"You won't feel tired when you see people shouldering the burden," Yi þ€ said slowly, "When Lao Qi takes up this burden, you will know that the pot is made of iron."
"What are you talking about? Are you just going to let Lao Qi and the others run wild?"
Yiþ€ raised his slack eyelids and looked at Yi Pei, "What else can I do? The Emperor personally approved the matter of Qingyi Garden. If you want to ask for a suspension of work because it costs too much, what will the Emperor do? look?"
Yi Pei was very dissatisfied. What do you mean? Because it was the emperor who said it, can't you think of another way? Just as he was about to say more, his servant quickly entered the main room and said, "Your Majesty, the fifth elder brother is here."
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????.
Yi Pei was in a bad mood, and his words smelled like gunpowder, "You are allowed to come, but I am not allowed to come?"
Zaiyan was stunned for a moment, then said with an apologetic smile, "What's going on, Fifth Uncle? My nephew has not offended you."
Yi Pei also felt that it was unreasonable to be angry with his nephew, so he snorted a few times, "Lao Liu, come in and talk, it's cold outside."
Zaiyun noticed the somewhat awkward atmosphere between the two uncles. There were serious things to talk about, but it was hard to talk now. Yiþ€ asked a few questions, but he just hesitated, "It's okay, my nephew is just I just want to pay my sixth uncle and sixth aunt New Year greetings, and there¡¯s nothing else to do.¡±
"Tell me, what is going on? On this snowy day, you came out of the city regardless of the cold. Tell me, what is going on?"
Yi Xi asked several times, and Zai Yan had to tell the truth, "My nephew went to the British Legation yesterday and heard Mr. Henderson say" Zai Yan told what he heard from Henderson one by one. Finally, he said, "If the British always hold such thoughts, my nephew thinks that Emperor Ama may have some disagreements with Japan's strategy. What does Liu Shu think?"
¡°So, what¡¯s the attitude of Americans?¡±
"Yesterday"When my son went there, he didn't see the American Minister Mr. Alexander. He just sent a military attach¨¦ from the embassy to congratulate him, gave him gifts and then went back soon. The nephew didn't get a chance to talk to him either. "
"It seems that the United States and Britain may not be on the same page. Can we find out the attitude of the Americans before opening the government? If we can use foreigners to control foreigners, it may not be a feasible solution."
¡°Uncle Liu¡¯s method is good, using barbarians to control barbarians, and using the power of Americans to put pressure on Britain. After all, the British don¡¯t dare to offend the other side too much.¡± ()
