In the early Tang Dynasty, there were 1,255 counties in the country. Kong Yingda and Gai Wenda, who were born in Hengshui County, enjoyed such a noble honor together, which has become a good talk among the world. Therefore, the name of "Hengshui" His name is known to both the government and the public. Officials and Confucian scholars in Hengshui County were all proud of it. By the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, a great flood engulfed the old county town, and the written materials and memorial buildings recording this event had disappeared and could not be found. Later, in the second year of Zhengde in the Ming Dynasty (1507), when the new county town built a stone archway for Li Mei, a judge, on Fumin Street (Nanmenmen Street), it was named "Dengyingfang" to recall this period of history; the Qing Dynasty In the first year of Shunzhi, people changed the name of the West City Gate to "Dengying Gate". On this permanent city gate building, this kind of text sign was engraved as a name to praise it, and to commemorate this glorious past event. I hope that future generations will "carry forward the past and open up the future".
