?The father of the poet Li Qingzhao is Li Gefei, and his mother has always been controversial. According to modern research, there are two of them, one is the eldest daughter of Prime Minister Wang Gui (1019-1085), and the other is the eldest granddaughter of Number One Scholar Wang Gongchen (1012--1085). "History of the Song Dynasty" records: "Li Gefei, courtesy name Uncle Wen, was from Jinan. When he was young, he was very distinguished as a military police officer...so he became a Jinshi. He was transferred to the Jizhou Sihu to join the army, tested as an official, and became a professor in Yunzhou. The county guard used his I was poor, but I wanted to be appointed to another position, but I couldn't thank him. He entered the Taixue Lu, and then became a doctor. He was known by Su Shi for his articles... His wife was Wang's granddaughter, and her daughter Qingzhao was also good at poetry. Married to Zhao Tingzhi's son Mingcheng, and named himself Yi'an Jushi. Wang Gongchen passed the imperial examination at the age of 19. When he died in July of the eighth year of Yuanfeng (1085), his epitaph recorded his descendants and marriage. The situation, but it is not recorded who the granddaughter married, seems to be inconsistent with the "History of the Song Dynasty". Wang Gongchen's wife died in the eighth year of Yuanyou (1093). The record on his wife's three granddaughters in his wife's epitaph is: "Chang Shi Zuo Feng Yilang, proofreading secretary Provincial Yellow Book Li Gefei, both of whom are still living together." This is the same as in 2001. The record on the epitaph of He Zhan unearthed in Jinan is completely consistent with the record signed "written by Zuo Fengyilang and Li Gefei (1093), proofreading secretary of the provincial yellow book". This proves that Li Gefei's wife is Wang Gongchen's granddaughter.

There is no record of Li Gefei in Wang Gongchen’s epitaph, which means that until his death in 1085, Li Gefei had no marriage with the Wang family of Zhuangyuan Prefecture. Calculated, Li Gefei married this wife between 1086 and 1092. Judging from the "two people in the family", Wang's other two granddaughters were still young at the time, and it is speculated that the eldest granddaughter might have married between 1089 and 1092. In the fourth year of Yuanyou (1089), Li Gefei got a new residence in the capital, "Youzhutang", and the two situations are somewhat consistent. Li Qingzhao was born in the seventh year of Yuanfeng (1084). At this time, Wang Gongchen's eldest granddaughter had not yet married Li Gefei, basically ruling out the possibility that she was Li Qingzhao's biological mother.

There was another Wang family in the political arena of the Song Dynasty, which produced prime ministers Wang Zhun, Wang Gui and his son. According to the "Wang Wengong Gong Gui Shinto Monument", Wang Gui also died in the eighth year of Yuanfeng (1085), and there were four daughters: "Li Gefei, a professor in Yunzhou, died early, and Lu Qiuxu, a former doctor Quan Taichang, died early. Xu married the former scholar Zheng Juzhong and was granted the title of Lord of Penglai County. The second was still young. "Li Gefei was a professor in Yunzhou from about 1082 to 1085. It can be seen from this that Wang Gui's daughter was Li Gefei's earlier wife. Most academic circles believe that she was Li Qingzhao's biological mother and died soon after giving birth to Li Qingzhao, because this is the only "reasonable" inference.

However, this inference is quite questionable. The question is, if Wang Gui’s daughter died early, how early would it be? When did she marry Li Gefei? Some people think that Li Gefei married Wang Gui’s daughter while he was a professor in Yunzhou. This is a serious misunderstanding. Professor Yunzhou was only Li Gefei's final official position when Wang Gui died, just as Li's final official position when Wang Xue died was Zuo Fengyilang and Proofreading Secretary Huang Benshu.

In the capital city of the Northern Song Dynasty (today's Kaifeng), there was a custom of selecting a son-in-law from the list of the best. The selection of a son-in-law from the list was also called "the son-in-law of the wife". This custom existed in the Tang Dynasty and became particularly popular in the Song Dynasty. The husband had the meaning of enjoying the occupation alone. Those who are "betrothed as sons-in-law" are all high-ranking officials and dignitaries, including rich men, and those who are betrothed are all newly-listed Jinshi. Ouyang Xiu passed the Jinshi examination and was chosen as a "son-in-law" by a senior official of the imperial court.

Li Gefei had a rare reputation for talent, and was "very distinguished as a handsome policeman". After becoming a Jinshi in the ninth year of Xining (1076), he also joined the official family of Yi. That year coincided with the promotion of Wang Gui from deputy prime minister to prime minister. He was so proud that he wanted to "pick a son-in-law" for his eldest daughter. You can imagine how much attention he paid to it. As an ordinary person with no official background, Li Gefei Scholars, it is difficult not to obey. This marriage was concluded approximately in the second half of 1076. However, there are various signs that Wang Gui’s daughter may not be Li Qingzhao’s biological mother.

First, let’s look at the probability of her becoming Li Qingzhao’s biological mother. From 1076 to 1085, 9 years, Wang Gui's daughter must have died during this period. If this time is divided equally into 9 periods, the probability of Wang dying in the last 2 years is 22.22, and the probability of dying in the first 7 years is 77.77.

And there is only a 12.5 chance that she will give birth to Li Qingzhao, minus one year. If this one-eighth chance is presumed to be a fact, it is very reluctant and a dangerous judgment.

Let’s look at the concept of “early death”. The meaning of "premature death" in epitaphs and genealogies is that someone was underage, or died before getting married, which is similar to "young mourning". When Zeng Gong's epitaph mentions his two daughters, it means "the two died early" and were not married. "Death early" often has another hidden meaning, that is, no heirs. It may mean that Wang Gui's daughter died soon after marrying Li Gefei and did not have time to give birth to a boy and a half girls.

Su Shi's "Teng Fu's Epitaph" records Teng Fu's five daughters: "The first one was He Xunzhi, who asked the minister to know Chuzhou, the second one was Xuande, the secretary of the provincial government was Wang Bing, who died early, the second one was Xuande Wang Huanzhi, a doctor of Lang Taixue, and Wang Bingzhi, the next great master..." Although the epitaph does not clearly state the time of death of Teng Fu's second daughter, judging from the fact that his fourth daughter remarried the same person, she may have died within two or three years. If Prime Minister Wang Gui's third daughter had not been promised to marry Zheng Juzhong (to be married means predetermined, perhaps because the daughter was very young, but it also reflected the prime minister's strength), it was possible that Li Gefei would be reborn.

Since it was an "early death", it does not mean a "late death". In the eight years from 1076 to 1084, it was more likely that Wang Gui's daughter died before 1080. If she lived with Li Gefei for seven or eight years, or even died after giving birth to Li Qingzhao, it does not seem to be considered an "early death". Ouyang Xiu's wife, Xu, died of illness not long after their marriage. Of course, Wang Gui's epitaph calls him "died early", which can be reluctantly understood to mean that he died just before Wang Gui, but it is really reluctant.

Third look at the cause of death of Wang Gui’s daughter. People don't know the cause of Wang Gui's daughter's death. The death of a newlywed woman is most likely to be caused by dystocia of her first child. After all, the birth mortality rate was relatively high at that time. According to Wang Gongchen's epitaph, "There were eight women, three of whom died while still at home. Three of them died after marrying Cheng Sigong, an official in charge of the imperial court, Ren Gongyu, and Sun Yaqing, a court minister. Today, Shi Zongyi and Cishi were promoted to official positions during Chang Shi Jiedu. Xuandelang Luxia. "The mortality rate of Wang Gongchen's daughters was extremely high, and three of them died soon after they got married. Kou Zhun's epitaph records four daughters: "Chang Shi was the privy envoy to the Secretariat of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and Wang Shu was the minister of Tong Zhongshu Ping Zhangshi. The second was Bi Qingchang, the minister of Taifu, and the second was Bi's stepmother..." Kou Zhun's second daughter The situation is very similar to Teng Fu's daughter. The youngest daughter of Fan Xi, a famous minister from Jinan in the Song Dynasty, gave birth to three sons and six daughters. Among them, the second, fifth and sixth daughters all died early after getting married. It can be said that it is very common to "die early" after getting married.

Let’s first look at Li Gefei’s resume after becoming a Jinshi. "History of the Song Dynasty" says that he "transferred Jizhou Sihu to join the army, tried to study as an official, and became a professor in Yunzhou". There is no sign of taking office in the capital. When Zhao Tingzhi was the prime minister, he was "hot but enthusiastic but cold-hearted"; when Qin Hui was the prime minister, he "brought support through marriage". As Wang Gui was the prime minister, Li Gefei was not so "lucky" at all. It seemed that he was the prime minister's son-in-law for nothing.

Wang Gui’s third son-in-law Zheng Juzhong and his grandson-in-law Qin Hui are both prime ministers, and his other grandson-in-law Meng Zhonghou is close to the prime minister. In a sense, if the development momentum goes smoothly, Li Gefei, like Zheng Juzhong and Qin Hui, has the opportunity to gradually reach the peak of power and even become prime minister by virtue of his imperial examination background and the family influence of Prime Minister Wang. However, Li Gefei's highest official position was Yuanwailang of the Ministry of Rites, and there was no sign of any concern at the beginning of his official career. After becoming a Jinshi, he moved around as a minor official in the local area. It was not until 1086, when the prime minister's father-in-law died, that he returned to the capital to complete the Imperial Academy. He had no intention of spending a few days in the capital with his new wife. The prime minister's power and prestige seemed to have no effect.

Let’s look at Li Gefei’s economic situation. "History of the Song Dynasty" said that he "transferred the chief minister of Jizhou to join the army... The county governor was so poor that he wanted to take other officials, but he couldn't thank him." It is said that Li Gefei was lucky enough to become the prime minister's son-in-law, and his luck surpassed that of most Jinshi in the same field, and he was just short of becoming the consort. My God, how poor can he be? How poor can he be? Why does he need the pity of the county guard? Naturally, the son-in-law can live a life of plenty of food and clothing reasonably and legally. Although he could get double salary by serving as another official, the prime minister's family was a wealthy one, with hundreds of servants alone. It seemed that the prime minister's son-in-law would not be reduced to this level.

Look at Li Gefei’s personal feelings.

In 1089, Chao Buzhi wrote "The Story of Youzhutang", quoting a passage from Li Gefei himself: "If everything is safe, it will always be known whether it is high or low. The beauty of jade is as good as the blue field, and the sunken magpie is a beautiful wood, and the Jiaozhi is beautiful." It is thought that the white pheasants and golden pheasants are eaten in the mountains, and the nobles give them a hundred golds as porridge, while the barbarians think that many things are cheap and that the king's city is vast. , with nine buildings and four sides, three gates and twelve hundred squares, the chess set is from the princes to the common people. The palaces are connected with each other, and the chariots and horses are used to borrow them. The land is left to be lost, and the poor have nothing to do with it. How about the others? However, there are many obstacles, and I don’t know how many people there can be if I have bamboos like my hall..."?

The general idea of ??this passage is that there are no certain rules for the high and low of things. It just depends on where they are. The capital city of Bianliang is so vast and prosperous, not everyone can get what they want. If you are a commoner, you can't even install a toilet. There are no places. Li Gefei, who has been a Jinshi for ten years, has not only experienced the luxury of the upper class, but also has a deep understanding of the sufferings of the lower class, especially the warmth and coldness. His seemingly contented expression is mixed with the dreamy life feelings of separation and separation from the prime minister's daughter. His personal destiny is also like a roller coaster, with ups and downs, like a fleeting cloud of smoke.

First, let’s look at the relationship between Li Qingzhao and his family. Li Qingzhao was at the center of two political families. Both his natal family and her husband's family had prime ministerial backgrounds, especially her natal family, and their influence continued into Li Qingzhao's later years. However, various information shows that Li Qingzhao has almost no relationship with his natal relatives. Li Qingzhao never mentioned the situation of his mother (the prime minister's daughter), nor did he mean to lose his mother when he was young. Before his marriage, Li Qingzhao's contacts in the capital and Jinan were limited to his father's friends Zhang Wenqian and Chao Buzhi (prefect of Qizhou from 1093 to 1094), and he had no experience of interacting with prominent relatives from his natal family. Prime Minister Wang Gui has five sons and four daughters, and even more grandchildren. If you include the descendants of his father Wang Zhun, there are even more. Among other things, Wang Zhun's nine grandson-in-laws are Yu Zhong, Ma Ying, Li Gefei, Lu Qiuxu, Zheng Juzhong, Xu Guangyin, Zhang Tao, Gao Dan, Deng Xunren, etc. are all Jinshi and belong to the "prosperous clan of Huazong". In theory, they are all Li Qingzhao's natal family. Moreover, Deng Xunren and Li Gefei became Jinshi in the same year and married. Get married.

(Li Qingzhao’s picture comes from the Internet)

Zheng Juzhong served as prime minister twice and had many confrontations with the powerful Prime Minister Cai Jing. , Zheng Juzhong was given the posthumous title Wenzheng after his death, and he was a very prestigious person. Meng Zhonghou sent a letter to the Prince of An County, and opened the mansion with the same three divisions, from the first grade. He once held the imperial edict from the Queen Mother Longyou to welcome Kang Wang Zhao Gou to the throne. He had the merit of supporting and establishing him. Although he was not the prime minister, he was "just like the prime minister. When he died, the three sons all excepted the Zhimi Pavilion, and six relatives each entered. An official." Not to mention Qin Hui's status, he is a powerful minister. These heavyweights and their descendants and relatives have never had any contact with Li Qingzhao.

Secondly, let’s look at who Li Qingzhao relies on when he encounters difficulties. This perhaps best illustrates the problem. After the death of Zhao Mingcheng in the third year of Jianyan (1129), the imperial doctor Wang Jixian came to blackmail him and wanted to buy out all the precious cultural relics, calligraphy, calligraphy and paintings from Li Qingzhao's family with a mere 300 taels of gold. This big problem was solved by relying on the Xie Ke family, Minister of War, who was cousin to Zhao Mingcheng. In the second year of Shaoxing (1132), Li Qingzhao filed for divorce from his second marriage, Zhang Ruzhou, and faced two years in prison. This big problem was solved with the help of Qi Chongli, the Minister of War, who was a distant relative of Zhao Mingcheng. They are all members of the mother-in-law's family. Moreover, Li Qingzhao's father-in-law, the prime minister, and her husband, the prefect, have long since died, and the powerful relatives of her mother's family just stand by and watch.

Li Qingzhao fled south, especially after the death of her husband Zhao Mingcheng. He traveled alone to Yuezhou, Mingzhou, Fenghua, Ninghai, Taizhou, and Wenzhou with many books and cultural relics transported from Qingzhou, and later took refuge again. Jinhua is in urgent need of help. According to Mr. Tao Ran's analysis, Li Qingzhao found his brother Li Hao, Zhao Mingcheng's friends and subordinates, and the son of Li Gefei's good friend Chao Buzhi. Tao Ran analyzed that Li Qingzhao had intended to go to his maternal uncles Wang Zhongshan and Wang Zhongyi, and his husband-in-law Li Zao, who were both serving in Jiangxi. At that time, Wang Zhongshan knew Fuzhou, Wang Zhongyi knew Yuanzhou, and Li Qingzhao followed the Empress Dowager Wei Longyou in Hongzhou (Nanchang). ).

Later, these three people all had bad deeds of surrendering to the Jin soldiers, abandoning the city and running away, and they were despised by the people of their time. Tao Ran believes that Li Qingzhao did not mention the two uncles in the "Preface to the Record of Jinshi", which is "a taboo for relatives." However, she clearly mentioned Zhao Mingcheng's "sister-in-law" and did not keep it secret from relatives. She also sent some luggage books to Li Zhuo for temporary storage, and later disappeared into the flames of war.

In fact, when Li Zhuo was in Hongzhou from the Wei Dynasty, Meng Zhonghou, as the elder brother of the Queen Mother, was "favoured by the Queen Mother in Nanchang" and shouldered the responsibility of protecting the Queen Mother. Since Li Qingzhao could find his "sister-in-law" Li Tuo, why not find his "cousin-in-law" Meng Zhonghou who was also in Hongzhou (Nanchang)? Isn't his status higher? This may imply that Li Qingzhao did not go to the two "uncles" at all. "Her plan, her goal is just Li Zhuo. After Li Qingzhao gradually settled down in Lin'an with the court, there was still no sign of contact with his natal family.

Thirdly, look at the attitude of Qin Hui’s family towards Li Qingzhao. Li Qingzhao's only known contact with his "natal family" is a careful record of the Song Dynasty: "In the capital of Guihai, Shaoxing (1143), Li Qingzhao had a relative who was a married woman. Because of the Dragon Boat Festival, he entered the post... At that time, Qin Chucai (Brother Qin Hui, named Zi) is in Hanyuan, and if he is evil, he will be given money and silk." Li Qingzhao should have participated in such official activities more than once or twice, either as a junior in the family of Prime Minister Wang Gui, or as the wife of Zhao Mingcheng. , after all, Zhao Mingcheng had served as the magistrate of the imperial court for many times, and there was no doubt that Li Qingzhao was the "married woman". But why did Qin Zi hate Li Qingzhao so much? Some scholars believe that Qin Zi hated Qi Chongli and was angry with Li Qingzhao to vent his anger and revenge, because Qi Chongli and Qin Hui had been in tit-for-tat confrontation, and he rescued Li Qingzhao. This reason is logically valid, and there is no problem with the general direction. But it's still not emotionally appropriate, because Qin Zi showed more "disgust" than "anger".

An important reason for this may be that Li Qingzhao has no blood relationship with Zheng Juzhong, Qin Hui, Meng Zhonghou and other natal families at all. Li Qingzhao is only the granddaughter of Wang Gui in name, and Qin Zi knows it very clearly. Li Qingzhao did not have even a little bit of Prime Minister Wang's blood. He felt that Li Qingzhao was just here to gain popularity, and he was a fake and not qualified to pass it off. Of course, another reason why Qin Zi dislikes Li Qingzhao may be that she has the "stain" of marrying a second time.

Assuming that Qin Hui is really Li Qingzhao's cousin-in-law, as his cousin-in-law's brother, shouldn't he be treated with some respect? After all, he and Qin Hui are different, and they are relatively separated in terms of kinship. What's more, Li Qingzhao is already old at this time and does not pose any threat to the Qin family. There is no need for Qin Zi to be so cold and disgusted with this "cousin".

The real scenario may be this: Wang Gui’s daughter died shortly after marrying Li Gefei. As the prime minister’s favorite, Prime Minister Wang Gui could vent his anger on him and drive him out of the capital, whether it was because of Li Gefei or not. No matter what, out of sight but out of mind. This is also the reason why "History of the Song Dynasty" says that Li Gefei "transferred" Jizhou Sihu to join the army. He obviously had an official position before the transfer. If it is to be released from outside the capital, if there is Prime Minister Wang’s background, if it is to focus on training at the grassroots level, should it be promoted and followed up with follow-up care?

Assume that the Prime Minister’s daughter is dead at this time , the logic of promotion no longer exists. If you don’t get demoted, it will be considered worthy of you. Li Gefei's golden relationship was short-lived, coming and going, meaning it didn't exist. In desperation, Li Gefei still relied on his talent and arrogance, and refused to accept the county guard's offer of a part-time job with double salary because of his poverty. This is how "Thank you" should come. What it shows is not necessarily the high character of the character, but "hatred". "The power is great.

Wang Gui’s daughter is Li Gefei’s wife, but she is not Li Qingzhao’s biological mother. If this theory is true, who would be Li Qingzhao's biological mother? She may be from Jinan, Zhangqiu or Licheng (Part 2), and she seems to be Li Gefei's "first wife" in his hometown before he passed the Jinshi examination. Li Gefei was born in about 1049. He was already 28 years old when he became a Jinshi. He was very likely to be married. Although the age of marriage in the Song Dynasty was not uniform, it was common to get married early. Zhao Mingcheng was 21 when he married Li Qingzhao, brothers Su Shi and Su Che got married when they were 18 and 16, and Wang Anshi was only 20 when he got married.

The time of Li Gefei’s “first marriage” is unknown in history.

The epitaph of He Zhan unearthed in Jinan was written by brothers Li Gefei and Li Pifei. The epitaph begins by saying: "After the funeral of Mr. He Gong, the official of Zhongsan, his son came to invite him and said: 'My late king is here, and I am the most respectful and dear to my brothers. It is appropriate for my son to be the inscription of my late king.' Fortunately, I was able to worship Zhongsan Gong, twenty years ago..." This epitaph was written in the eighth year of Yuanyou (1093), and it was pushed back 20 years to 1073. This was the year when Zeng Gong achieved great results in his governance of Qizhou. In 2001, Li Gefei got acquainted with He Ji in "Li Ho". Where does this "Li Ho" refer to? He Zhan "was born in Linyi, Qizhou" and "died of illness at home", and finally chose to be buried in "Huangtaili, Fenggao Township, southwest of Licheng County". Judging from the context, He Guang should have died in Lixia City, and this "Li Hao" should also refer to Lixia City, which means that the two families were neighbors. Judging from the fact that He Jin was not buried in Linyi, his ancestral home, he may have occupied Licheng, his ancestral home. This means that the Li Gefei brothers left Zhangqiu Hushan and settled in Lixia before 1073 years ago. It is very likely that Li Gefei was married at this time. He "wrote "Lixia Shui Ji" with a detailed narrative and well-written style." He must have made a leisurely inspection of Lixia City.

If Li Gefei did not firmly reject the prime minister's "sister-in-law" when he became a Jinshi, and he did not want or dare not divorce his wife, his most likely choice to deal with the "sister-in-law" would be "one wife and one concubine", or Leave your first wife in your hometown and marry your bride in the capital. Su Shi and Li Wenshu wrote: "I heard that the Duke had been uneasy for several days. He was worried about it, and he was also afraid that his sister-in-law would make a mistake when she scolded him. I heard that he was getting better, and I was very happy and comforted." "Jia Sao" may be similar to the terms "Jia Clan" and "You Clan" at that time, indicating that she came from the wife of a noble clan, or was she the eldest sister-in-law or the first wife? This passage by Su Shi was written during the period when Huangzhou was demoted (February 1080-April 1084). It shows that Li Gefei's family often had fierce conflicts. "Sister-in-law Yi"? "Sister-in-law B"? It is unknown whether it may be a conflict between the wife and the concubine. However, after Li Gefei married the Wang family, there was likely to be a sharp conflict between the official wife and the non-official wife, or even a fierce fight between the two official wives. The prime minister's daughter married Li Gefei, so she naturally could not suffer a loss. The first wife argued hard and was not willing to surrender.

Qizhou has always had strong folk customs. Su Zhe once wrote a poem to compare the differences between Chenzhou and Qizhou, "Chen's wind is peaceful and peaceful, but Qi's customs are strong and lazy." At the beginning of his career, Li Qingzhao showed great arrogance and directly reconciled poems with his fathers, writing "Ode to the Zhongxing of Wuxi and Zhang Wenqian". When his father was banned from the Yuanyou Party, Li Qingzhao wrote to his father-in-law without fear, even accusing his father-in-law of being ruthless. He had obviously inherited the "strong beam" gene. And "heavy sleep without the remaining wine" and "drunk without knowing the way back" all imply the wealth of Li Qingzhao's natal family and the indulgence of young Li Qingzhao.

There are multiple pieces of evidence showing that Li Gefei is from Zhangqiu. But why has the world regarded Li Qingzhao as a native of Licheng for a long time? It is even said that she lives by the catkin spring. Guo Moruo once wrote a couplet: "By the Daming Lake, by the Baotu Spring, his former residence is deep in the Chuiyang; there are many jade washes, and the records of gold and stone, the literary talent is the legacy of the later masters." Mr. Guo is a master who can verify oracle bone inscriptions. He tacitly admits that Li Qingzhao was from Licheng. This may not be entirely related to the fact that the "Licheng County Chronicle" records that he was a Licheng person. It should be related to the fact that he actually lived in Licheng, and that Li Qingzhao's biological mother was in Li Qingzhao. The city has certain influence and origins in bringing Li Qingzhao up in the ancient city of Lixia.

Qizhou's economy was very developed during the Song Dynasty. The world's earliest physical advertising trademark "Jinan Liujia Kung Fu Needle Shop" copper plate collected by the China History Museum is a clear proof. The "Fu Zhao's Epitaph" was unearthed in Liuli Mountain in Jinan in 1984. According to the records of Fu Zhao (1076-1135), "The Duke first married the Li family, and the second married the Liu family, both of whom were daughters of the Wenren You clan." It can be seen that the two surnames Liu and Li are the common surnames in Licheng. According to the newly compiled "General History of Jinan" Song, Jinan and Yuan Dynasties Volume analysis shows that there were forty or fifty thousand people in Lixia City at that time. There must be a reason why Li Qingzhao was born with no worries about food and clothing, or it may be because Li Gefei's first wife was a rich girl, and maybe her surname was Liu.

Li Qingzhao’s poems clearly mentioned that the famous thing in his hometown is a "Xiting". The Xiting can be found in Licheng, but not in Zhangqiu. "I often remember the sunset at the Xiting Pavilion" shows that I have a particularly deep impression on it. It is not an occasional visit, and the traces of life are obvious. There was indeed a Xixi Pavilion in Jinan in the Song Dynasty. When Su Zhe was the secretary in charge of Jinan, he wrote a poem titled "Xixi Pavilion in Xiucai City, Xu Zhengquan" to prove it.

In his later years, Li Qingzhao compiled his own collection of essays as "Shu Yu Ci", which may be related to his early life in his hometown. Chao Duanli wrote "Man Ting Fang" in Qizhou in 1094, which contains the sentence "Beizhu is clear blue, Nanshan is green... It's like flying springs to wash jade." The "Feiquan Shuyu" here may specifically refer to Shuyuquan. The "Mingquan Stele" of the Jin Dynasty has the name of Shuyu Spring, which is located in the south of Jinxian Spring, while Liuxu Spring is located in the east of Jinxian Spring. It is speculated that this spring existed in the Song Dynasty.

Li Qingzhao’s biological mother is not Wang Gui’s daughter, nor Wang Gongchen’s granddaughter. His biological mother is the daughter of Li Gefei’s “first wife”. Including that his mother is a historical person is just a guess, and there are still many unknown possibilities. Li Gefei's tomb is "alone in the valley", hidden and not visible. Li Gefei's poems and essays from the Song Dynasty have been lost, but only a few of his achievements remain. We look forward to new discoveries in cultural relics, archaeology and historical documents in the future.

Zhang Jian
