"A letter from thousands of miles is only for the wall, why not let him three feet? The Great Wall of Wan Li is still there today, and Qin Shihuang is not seen. " . This song "Let the Wall" comes from a historical allusion in Liuchi Lane. According to historical records, there is an open space next to Zhang Wenduan's public house, adjacent to the Wu family, which is used more and more. The family wrote books in Beijing, and the approved books were sent back later. The family gave up three feet when they got the book, and Liuchi Lane became famous. On June 5438+065438+1October 2 1 day, 2006, then State Councilor Tang Jiaxuan visited Liuchi Lane and wrote an inscription: "Tongcheng Liuchi Lane, a harmonious city". In April 2007, "Tongcheng Confucian Temple-Liuchi Lane" became a national 3A-level tourist attraction.
Historical allusions:
The story of "Liuchi Lane" became a historical story because of the land dispute between the Zhang family and its neighbors. During the reign of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, Zhang Ying served as a university student and minister of rites in Wenhua Hall. The official residence of my hometown Tongcheng is adjacent to the Wu family, and there is an alley between the two courtyards for both sides to use. Later, the Wu family wanted to build a new house and take this road. The Zhang family disagreed. The two sides were at loggerheads and took the lawsuit to the local county government. Considering that both families are famous families, the county magistrate dare not end it easily.
At this time, the Zhang family angrily wrote an urgent letter asking him to come forward to solve it. After reading the letter, Zhang Ying thought he should be modest to his neighbors. In his reply to his family, he wrote four sentences: a thousand miles of books are just separated by a wall. Why not let him be three feet? The Great Wall of Wan Li is still there today, but I haven't seen Qin Shihuang. After reading it, the family understood the meaning and offered to give up three feet of open space. Wu Jia was deeply moved by this scene and offered to give up the three-foot homestead, hence the name "Six-foot Lane".

Architectural layout:
Liuchi Lane starts from West Backstreet in the east and reaches Baizitang in the west. Xiangfu in the south and Wuxiangfu in the north, with a total length of100m and a width of 2m, are all paved with pebbles. The main buildings in Liuchi Lane include the driveway, the "comity" stone archway in the east, the "Yide Liu Fang" stone archway in the west, leisure square, poems and paintings, rockery and so on.
Main landscape:
"One Virtue" archway: Baiyu archway stands in the Prime Minister's Mansion in the scenic spot, on the tall Huizhou Baiyu archway, and "One Virtue Liu Fang" is vigorous and powerful. Through the archway, I came to Wushi Zhaobi, with a figure of Liuchi Lane engraved on the front and Zhang Ying's life introduction on the back.
Bypassing the zhaobi, you can see a Taihu stone engraved with a poem by Zhang Ying. "A thousand miles of books are just walls, why not let him be three feet?" The Great Wall of Wan Li is still there today, but I haven't seen Qin Shihuang. ".
Liuchi Lane: Liuchi Lane is located in front of Taihu Stone. The alley is not long, only 100 meters wide, more than 2 meters. Blue bricks and cobblestone roads, with camphor trees planted on the walls on both sides, are straight and quiet, with the thickness of history books. Standing in the alley, a picture scroll flows in front of my eyes. During the reign of Kangxi, the south wall was surrounded by the Zhang family and the north wall was surrounded by the Wu family. The two families quarreled over the homestead and gave in to each other ... Now, there are no Wu family in JiaHe Zhang, only the trees in the alley are dense.
"comity" archway: Walking through the alley, there is also a white marble archway engraved with the word "comity" at the exit of the alley. From "virtue" to "courtesy", there is a much-told story.
Social evaluation:
Tang Jiaxuan, then State Councilor: A true historical story was born in Liuchi Lane, showing the traditional virtue of China people's pursuit of harmony and shining with brilliant thoughts beyond time and space.
Wu Yi, then Vice Premier of the State Council, said: "The story of Liuchi Lane tells the world to be generous and self-denying." [ 1]
"Liuchi Lane" is a ruler of life, which is worth taking out and measuring frequently. It is also a metaphor of life accomplishment, and it is worth walking frequently. If you keep walking along the "Six-foot Lane" and practice self-discipline, you will walk out of the vast world of life, out of the high sky and white clouds of life, and out of the historical comments of innocent descendants.

Construction background:
As a new cultural carrier, the spirit of humility contained in Liuchi Lane's allusions is actually the spirit of China's traditional culture, and its "width" lies not in "six feet" but in people's spiritual realm and harmonious comity spirit. Although the origin of the cultural connotation of Liuchi Lane is limited to the personal moral level of the Wu family, it highlights the attitude of the government towards the people, the position of interest disputes and the way to solve contradictions, and is a model for dealing with the relationship between the government and the people in an era.
