Yongzhou Wei Shijun New Museum [1]
Author: [Tang] Liu Zongyuan
If you gather rocks in the suburbs [2], you will find rocks [3], gullies [4] and graves [5], and you will be exhausted by manpower, so you can do something. But if you want to have a sky scene, you can't. Without people, adapting to the terrain and maintaining the beauty of nature, which was difficult to do in the past, is now here.
Yongzhou is only the foot of nine doubts [6]. Its beginning is earth [7], and the surrounding mountains are cities. There are rocks trapped in the grass [8]; One spring, it lay on the soil [9]. Where snakes and slugs swim [10], where raccoons swim. Maoshu is evil, Jiapa is toxic [1 1], and it's filthy to mix and scramble for species.
Gong Wei has been here for more than a month, and he has nothing to do with it [12]. The grass is shoveled in piles, and the spring water after dredging is crystal clear. I started painting weeds from the beginning [13], and I drew [14]. The piled hills are like [15] and clear as grass. Burning and burning [16], strange trends come and go. The rock is thick and thick, surrounded by it. Depending on its planting, it is delicate and comfortable; Depending on its reserve [17], it will dissolve the surplus [18]. Strange rocks are looming, surrounded by four corners [19]. Or column or kneeling, or standing or servant, Joe points suddenly [20], mound sudden anger. It's Dong Yu [2 1] sightseeing. All kinds of shapes and shapes are assisted, and the effect is under the hall [22]. Plateau outside the mountain, cliff at the foot of forest, toilet hiding [23]. You are wild and blue [24], far away from azure, and salty will be in Qiaomen [25].
It has been extended to tourists [26], followed by banquets. Or praise him: "Seeing the merits of the public, knowing the ambition of the public. The masses win because of the soil, don't they want to change because of the customs? The public chooses evil and takes beauty [27]. Don't you want to help others? If the public is turbid, isn't it necessary to get rid of greed and establish honesty? If the public has hope for the future, don't you want to be at home, don't you want to be at home [28]? However, husband is also a hall. Is it the only one suitable for vegetation, mud, stones and springs? What is the scenery of the foothills all over the mountains? It will let people who follow the public know their greatness. " Zongyuan invited the stones to take measures against the walls [29] and compiled the Law of Two Thousand Stones [30].

Vernacular translation
If you want to build valleys, cliffs and deep pools in cities, you must carry rocks, dig gullies, overcome obstacles and exhaust manpower. But if you want to have that kind of scenery made in heaven, you can't do it. Do not need to spend manpower, conform to the terrain and maintain the beauty of nature. This kind of thing that was difficult to do in the past has now appeared here.
Yongzhou is at the foot of Jiuyi Mountain. The people who originally measured and planned here also built a city around the foot of the mountain. There are rocks here, but they are covered with dense grass; There is a clear spring here, but it is buried under the mud and turned into a poisonous snake. The raccoon has no place to go out. Good trees and evil trees, flowers and poisonous weeds, mixed together, competing to grow wildly. So it is called a desolate land.
Gong Wei came to Yongzhou, and after a month, the state government came to power, and there were not many things. Looking at this land, I feel very unusual. It can make people uproot weeds and dig out sludge. The shoveled grass piled up like a mountain, and the dug spring water was crystal clear. Weeds are burned, clear springs are dredged, and wonders emerge one after another. Exquisite and dirty are separated, and beautiful scenery replaces desolation. Look at those trees, they are handsome and tall, with spreading branches and leaves; Looking at the lake, the microwave ripples and twists and turns. There are many strange rocks, surrounded by them. Some line up, some bow, some stand, some lie down. The cave is winding and deep, and the rocks are abrupt and towering. So a hall was built here as a place to watch and play. All kinds of strange stones adapt to the terrain and offer their skills under the hall. Outside the new museum, the plateau is connected with the mountain, and the cliffs at the foot of the mountain covered by trees are staggered, either hidden or present. The green Yuan Ye is from near to far, blending with the blue sky. All this gathered in the guard room.
After the new building was completed, the ambassador invited the guests to visit and then hosted a banquet. Some people praised and congratulated: "When you see this new church, you will know what you think. Don't you just want to form enlightenment according to local customs? Isn't it to eradicate evil trees and poisonous weeds and keep the flowers of good trees, just to eradicate cruelty and protect the benevolent? Dig out the sludge and let the clear water flow, isn't it just to eliminate greed and promote honesty? Don't you want every family to be stable and rich? In this case, is this new hall just built for the pleasure of plants, rocks and clear water, or to enjoy the scenery of mountains, Yuan Ye and forests? I hope that those who govern this country after the monarch can understand the truth of governing the people through this little thing. " Zong Yuan requested that this inscription be engraved on the slate, embedded in the wall, and compiled into a book as a model of French history.

The Story of the Weixin Pavilion in Yongzhou is one of the classic works of Liu Zongyuan, a writer in the Tang Dynasty. It was written in the seventh year of Yuanhe (8 12). At that time, the author was Sima Yongzhou, and Wei Zhou, the secretariat, was his immediate superior. When Wei Zhijun's new church was completed, the author showed Wei Zhijun's joy of moving and the law of Qingming with wonderful pen, which made people feel a kind of aesthetic feeling that conforms to nature and a kind of positive passion.
