The explanation of the word in Shuowen says: The outside of the city is called the suburbs, the countryside is called the forest, and the outside of the forest is called the distant boundary.

Interpretation of Weiyang

"Weiyang" originally came from "Poetry·Xiaoya·Tingxiao", the original text is "How is the night? The night is young." Later Qu Yuan wrote in the famous "Chu" It is also used in "Ci·Li Sao": "Even when the years are still young, the time is still young." However, there is a small difference in the application of "Weiyang" in these two places. Here are several meanings of "Wei Yang": 1. "Yang" is a knowing character, small seal character shape, from large to within 冂. It looks like an object (冂), with a person (big) standing in the middle of it. Original meaning: center. "Weiyang" means that it has not reached the center, that is, it is not halfway through. "Weiyang" in "Shi Xiaoya Ting Liao" means Weiban.

Zhu Xi's collected biographies: "Yang, Zhongye." In addition, "Weiyang" used in some later works also has this meaning. "Hanshu·Biography of Foreign Relatives·Mrs. Xiaowu Li": "Entrust Shen Yin to Xiang For a long time, I cherish the beauty of Fanhua. "Yan Shigu notes: "Weiyang is still not half old. It is said that Fanhua has fallen early, so I regret it." Su Shi's "Drinking in the Bamboo Pavilion". Jimo's poem: "The spring is about to move, and the night is still young." Rou Shi's "Farewell": "The night is still young, and the voices of people are lonely... So the young man called out and asked vaguely: 'When?' "It's eleven forty-five, only a moment before midnight." 2. The meaning of "Weiyang" in "Li Sao" is now generally recognized, which is also the reason why it is so popular now. It means Weiyang. All, nothing. Wang Yi's note: "Yang means exhaustion." The "Hanshu·Liyuezhi" that appeared later said: "The spirit is Yin Yin, the dying Yang Yang. Prolong life, never Yang." The second poem of Jiao Ran's "Longtou Water": " Qin Long forced Di Qiang and sent people to Weiyang. "Qin Guan's Epitaph of Mrs. Yu's family: "My wife, Zhou Dongyang, has a bright family." Tu Long's "Caihao". Note: "Relegated to Yelang from afar": "I am grateful to my emperor, I am grateful to my emperor, God's grace is so great... I wish you a long life and a holy life." These are all unfinished meanings. 3. In addition, Weiyang also means not far away. "Su Wen·The Great Treatise on the Four Qi Adjusting the Spirit": "The winds of evil are coming, the rainstorms are coming, and the four seasons of heaven and earth are not protecting each other, and they are out of touch with the Tao, then Weiyang will be destroyed." Wang Bing notes: "Yang, Jiuye, far away Also. "Gong Zizhen's "Ode to the Immortal Platform of King Yan Zhao": "Those who come from the southeast corner are as gentle as the beginning of the blue clouds, and as kind as the early morning sun." Fourth, Weiyang also means "boundless". "Laozi": "How far apart are they from each other? How different are they from good and evil? What people fear, we must not be afraid of. It is desolate and it is not central!" Wang Anshi notes: "It is desolate and it is not central. It is the desolate way. "It's so big that I don't know the shore." Gao Heng's note: "It's desolate in the middle, and the clouds are endless." "Chu Ci·Jiu Ge·Yun Zhongjun": "The orchid soup is bathing in the fragrance, and the flowers are like clothes." Ying. The soul is still curled up, but the death is still far away. "Baixue Yiyin·Nanci·Righteous Hero": "The beautiful young man of the righteous hero went out to enjoy the joy of longevity in the bright spring scenery, with dark green and sparse emeralds. " 5. The above are all literal meanings. The word Weiyang is really known to everyone because of the Weiyang Palace in Han Dynasty. After the founding of the Western Han Dynasty, several large palaces were built in the capital Chang'an, among which Changle, Weiyang and Jianzhang 13 were the most famous ones. Weiyang Palace was built shortly after the restoration of Changle Palace. It was built after Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty became emperor and was supervised by Xiao He. Since the completion of Weiyang Palace, the emperors of the Han Dynasty have lived here, so its reputation far exceeds that of other palaces. Therefore, Weiyang is best known to the world because of Weiyang Palace. Weiyang is also the abbreviation of Weiyang Palace. 6. Weiyang Palace is the residence of emperors of all dynasties. The founder of the Western Han Dynasty named his ruling center after "Weiyang". His intention was consistent with Qin Shihuang's desire to call himself "First Emperor" in order to "pass it on to all generations." . 7. In addition, the palace of the Han Dynasty connected Changle Palace and Weiyang Palace and was simply called "Changle Weiyang". "Changle Weiyang" means eternal happiness, without end. During the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, a stone tablet was erected at the site of Weiyang Palace, inscribed with the four words "Longevity without Borders", which can be said to be a footnote to the meaning of "Weiyang Palace". 8. Wei Young has another theory, which I personally think is reasonable. Another theory is that the "Ting Liao" mentioned above is a poem about diligence. The gentleman (King Xuan) asked about the morning and evening when the night was still young, and came to continue his diligence before the night was over, so he praised him for his diligence in political affairs. The construction of Weiyang Palace more or less contains this meaning. 9. Because of the relationship between Weiyang Palace, in later generations, Weiyang also referred to the palace. The third poem of Su Shi's "Qiu Xing": "The moon is low in front of the building at night, and the sound of cars in the clouds is not yet young." Li Gang's "Ci Yun Jidi Shanquan Zhan Xue Ancient Style": "Recalling the heyday of Xuanhe, Jiarui came from Heaven. Thousands of officials greet Weiyang, looking up at the winding dragon's tail. "Sun Zhiwei's poem "The Old Palace Man": "The palace clothes are folded and unpacked, and the favor comes to Weiyang in the dream." 10. There is a Weiyang District in Xi'an now. , referred to as Weiyang. I didn't want to say this at first, but considering that this is a pretty big district and an administrative unit, I might as well say it. At least it shows that this word can be found everywhere now. When it appears, don’t forget that it may be a place. 11. The meaning of nature. See "Huangdi Neijing": "If the four seasons of heaven and earth do not protect each other, and if they are out of touch with the Tao, Weiyang will be extinct." All of the above-mentioned meanings of "Weiyang" are known to the world, and they all have evidence. I will give two more examples below, but I am afraid not many people know about them.

12. After Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang was worried about Han Xin's superiority and made things difficult for Han Xin in every possible way. After Chen Xi rebelled, Liu Bang personally conquered it and entrusted Empress Lu to supervise the country. Empress Lu was afraid of Han Xin's ingenuity and thought he had the intention of rebelling. She made a plan with Xiao He to trick Han Xin into Weiyang Palace and behead him on the false accusation of committing a crime against the Holy Emperor. Han Xin's death gave Wei Young another layer of inner meaning. It means the innocent is wronged. 13. The last meaning: Zhao Feiyan, who is also known as "Huan Fat Yan Shou" with Yang Yuhuan, is the queen of Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty, but she does not love her emperor; and her sister Zhao Hede, as a concubine, loves the emperor, but The emperor was obsessed with Zhao Feiyan. Neither of them got their true love until they died. And they live in Changle Palace and Weiyang Palace respectively, so Changle and Weiyang have the intention of not getting true love.

Edit this paragraph Weiyang Palace

The Palace of the Western Han Dynasty in China. It is located about 3 kilometers northwest of present-day Xi'an, Shaanxi Province. It is located in the southwest of Chang'an City, the original capital of the Han Dynasty. Because it is to the west of Changle Palace, it was called West Palace in the Han Dynasty. It was built on the basis of Qin Zhangtai in the seventh year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty (200 BC). After Emperor Hui ascended the throne, it began to become the main palace. According to records, there is a gate on each side of the Weiyang Palace. There are towers built outside the east and north gates, which are called East Tower and North Tower. The princes came to court and entered and exited the East Palace; the scholars and people came to report and entered the North Palace. In order to use the Longshou Mountain hills as foundation construction. There are also Xuanshi, Qilin, Jinhua, Chengming, Wutai, Gouyi and other halls in the palace, and there are 32 palaces and pavilions. The archaeological work of Weiyang Palace began in 1956. According to exploration, the palace is square in plan, with a circumference of more than 8 kilometers and an area of ??about 5 square kilometers, accounting for about 1/7 of the total area of ??Chang'an City. The front hall is located in the middle of the palace. Its rammed earth foundation is 350 meters long from north to south, 200 meters wide from east to west, and the highest point at the northern end is 15 meters. Several palace ruins were excavated to the north of the front hall. Tens of thousands of bone inscriptions with inscriptions were unearthed from one of them, which may have been the official office of the Gongguan or the subordinate government office. Excavations have proven that Weiyang Palace was destroyed by war in the late Western Han Dynasty and abandoned thereafter. There is a sentence in "Enlightenment of Rhythm" that "The Emperor of the Han Dynasty set up Weiyang Palace for wine." For more information, please join the entry "Weiyang Palace".
