He takes care of them day and night, and tastes both soup and medicine first. Stepmother wanted to eat fresh fish, but she froze to death and had nowhere to buy it. Wang Xiang braved the cold wind to undress and lay on the ice on the river. The ice became warm and two carp jumped out. He happily took it home to show his respect for his stepmother.

Wang Xiang of the Jin Dynasty lost his mother in his early years, and his stepmother Zhu was unkind. She often told his father about Wang Xiang, so she lost his father's love and always asked him to clean the cowshed. One winter, her stepmother Zhu was ill and wanted to eat carp. However, due to the freezing of the river, Wang Xiang was lying naked on the ice. Suddenly, the ice melted, and two carp jumped out of the crack. Wang Xiangxi returned to his stepmother.

Protagonist editor
Wang Xiang (184-268), a native of Linyi, was a minister of the Western Jin Dynasty. Wang Xiang was knighted because of his filial piety and political achievements, and Wang Xiang lived in seclusion for more than 20 years. Later, he became a big sinong, an ordinary county magistrate from Wenxian as well. He died at the age of eighty-four, and his filial piety was sung for generations. [2-3]
Extended version of allusions
Lie on the ice and beg carp to swell.
The north wind roared and the cold wind blew hard. Wang Xiang carried a big bundle of dry wood, braved the strong wind, and finally came home from the mountains to get firewood. He feels headache, fever and general weakness. As soon as he got home, he lay down uncomfortable.
After a while, my stepmother came into the room. "Wang Xiang, get up and heat the kang for your father and me!"
"I, but ..."
Before Wang Xiang finished, her stepmother shouted, "lazy pig, get up and work!" "
Wang Xiang had to get up in high spirits and do as her stepmother told her.
At this time, my father came back. The stepmother immediately slandered Wang Xiang's father and said, "Husband, Xiang Jin doesn't know what's going on. He is very lazy. Just now I found that he fell asleep without burning the kang. This is outrageous! "
Hearing this, my father suddenly flew into a rage. He called Wang Xiang at once, and reprimanded him without asking: "Xianger, if you don't finish your work today, you will sleep in. Why on earth? "
"Father, today I ..." Wang Xiang was speechless. No matter how wronged I am, I don't support my father at ordinary times.
"Don't do this in the future, it won't happen again!"
Wang Xiang grievance to back out.
Soon, the stepmother felt depressed and uncomfortable. Father called the doctor and felt his stepmother's pulse. The doctor prescribed a prescription, claiming that only carp soup would be effective in treating diseases. But where can I buy carp? In this cold season, there are no carp in the market at all. What are we going to do? Everyone is worried about this. Without further ado, Wang Xiang walked alone to the river outside the village.
"Wang Xiang, where are you going?" Father asked.
"I'm going to the river outside the village."
"It freezes in winter there. What are you doing there? "
"Father, leave it alone!"
"The child must have gone there to play again. You see, what's the use of having this baby? After all these years, I feel that I have lived in vain. I am seriously ill now, and he has gone out to play. What an unfilial son! " Stepmother said.
Wang Xiang came to the river and saw a thick layer of ice on it. At this moment, Wang Xiang took off his coat and lay on the ice. Wang Xiang just melted a piece of ice with his body temperature. Wang Xiang broke the ice and saw many carp under it. In spite of the cold weather, he reached out and caught two carp.
He happily took the fish home.
"Dad, there are fish, there are fish!"
"Where did it come from?" Father is confused.
Wang Xiang introduced the process of taking fish in detail. Wang Xiang's father and stepmother were deeply moved, especially the stepmother. She took Wang Xiang's hand in shame and said shyly, "Xianger, you are really a good boy. I have wronged you for your mother before, and I will never abandon you again. "
Father also said: "Xianger is kind and generous, which is really admirable!" Now, your birth mother can rest in peace under the grave. "
At that time, the three men embraced happily, with bright smiles on their faces.
Subsequent editing
"Before Wang Xiang lay on the ice begging for carp, the filial piety river was originally a little-known river, but after the story of Wang Xiang lying on the fish was sung through the ages, it took on the task of making the filial piety culture as long-standing as a river and nourishing people's hearts". Wang Weixun, the 48th generation grandson of Wang Xiang, has deep feelings for Xiao He.
In the filial piety garden built by the filial piety river, the reporter saw the stone tablet of "Jin Wang Xiang lying on the ice" in the pavilion by the river, and the story of Wang Xiang lying on the ice begging carp was engraved behind the stone tablet. According to legend, the river where Wang Xiang is located does not freeze in winter, while other water surfaces are frozen like jade, so "the river freezes" is listed as one of the "Eight Scenes of Langya". "The original monument was built during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty and was later destroyed. A few years ago, the villagers built this pavilion and re-erected the monument. The present Xiaoyou Village is also to commemorate Wang Xiang's filial piety and Wang Lan's friends. During the Jiajing period, Shuanghu Village was renamed Xiaoyou Village. " Wang weixun

Ten-hole lotus
Ten-hole lotus root has a filial piety hole.
The white lotus root produced by Xiaohe is not only famous for "sleeping carp on the ice" in Wang Xiang, but also a major feature, especially for its fat, thin, tender, crisp and sweet.
During Xianfeng period of Qing Dynasty, Xiaohe white lotus root was designated as a royal tribute. Interestingly, the lotus root in Xiaohe is different from other places. It is not only crisp and delicious, but also has an extra hole, ten holes. It is said that this is Wang Xiang's filial piety, and the extra hole is "filial piety".
In June 2002, Xiaohe White Lotus was rated as "high-quality agricultural products" by Linyi Agriculture Bureau, and registered the trademark of "Xiaohe". In 2009, Baishabu Town, lanshan district, Linyi City was awarded the honorary title of "Hometown of Lotus Roots in China" by China Vegetable Circulation Association, and "Xiaohe" brand white lotus root was awarded the "China Famous Trademark".

Inheritance meaning editing
"Filial piety is a fine tradition of the Chinese nation. As long as someone has it, there must be. When I first wanted to rebuild the filial piety temple, I mainly thought of the warning function of education to future generations and the promotion of' filial piety culture'. China is now entering an aging society ahead of schedule, and the social security system and system are not perfect. The vast majority of the elderly still depend on their children for support. Advocating filial piety for the elderly is still a realistic problem. Promoting filial piety culture plays an important role in the construction of spiritual civilization and harmonious society, said Wang Xiaojun.
There are seven articles in Twenty-four Filial Pieties from Linyi, and the story of Wang Xiang lying on the ice begging for carp has been pushed to the top of the most far-reaching Twenty-four Filial Pieties. Wang Xiang's filial piety has standardized people's thoughts and behaviors for thousands of years, and has become a much-told story in history.
In order to promote the filial piety culture, Baishabu Town organizes primary and secondary school students in the town to receive traditional filial piety culture education in spring and autumn every year, stressing filial piety, reading filial piety classics, listening to filial piety classes, publicizing filial piety, and making filial piety education deeply rooted in people's hearts [3].
Legend query editor
The first is the native place of Wang Xiang. There was only one Wang Xiang who went to Taibao to be an official in Jin Dynasty, and he was from Linyi (now Linyi City, Shandong Province), not from Linchuan, Cai Weishan in Song Dynasty, who said "Linchuan Wang Jiacun" in the story "Ice Pool and Later Generations".
Secondly, it is about Wang Xiang's filial piety. According to the Book of Jin, History of the Three Kingdoms and History as a Mirror, "Wang Xiang (184~268) was born in Linyi" and "Zhu's stepmother became more respectful when nothing happened. How old is Wang Lan, the son of Zhujiajian? Every time he saw Xiang scolded by Chu, he cried and hugged his mother, who persuaded Xiang with reason, and Lan followed Xiang. And the dragon marries, the mother makes Kyrgyzstan's wife, the wife follows it, and the mother suffers from it, so it is rare. Xiang gradually gained fame, but his mother was seriously ill. " "At the end of the Han Dynasty, Lu Jiang lived in seclusion for more than 30 years and should not be ordered by the state. After the death of my mother, the secretariat of Xuzhou presided over the state affairs, and the border was quiet, and politics became a great cause. People sing: "The health of Linyi really depends on Wang Xiang; The country is not empty and does not drive. " "When Shi Xiang took office, he was over 50 years old. Later, he went to Li Si and worked as a captain, an ordinary officer and a captain. Wei made Si Mazhao King of Jin, and Stuart Hezeng and Xunkai invited Xianggong to congratulate him. When he and Xun met, they all bowed down, and the king bowed to him. Wang Xiang said, "I am the Duke of Wei, and you are only one step away from the Duke. With the three princes, you can worship others! I don't want to ruin Wei's hope and lose Wang Jin's virtue! " Si Mazhao also said to Wang Xiang, "Today, I know how important your concern is to you. "Wei in Jin Dynasty took Wang Xiang as the Pacific Insurance." Wang Xiang was so respectable that he was filial to his stepmother and didn't listen to Wang Jinzhi. "
The above is the official record of Wang Xiang's "filial piety". In unofficial history and other materials, Sun Sheng's Miscellaneous Words and Twenty-four Filial Pieties recorded the story of Wang Xiang's "lying on the ice looking for carp" in detail, but he did not claim that Wang Xiang was from Linchuan, and the incident took place in Linchuan. Sun Sheng was a native of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. His Miscellaneous Words said that Wang Xiang: "The nature is filial and the stepmother is cruel. Every time she thinks about harm, she is not lazy. In Leng Yue, the stepmother said,' I really want to eat fish.' Take off your clothes and ask for it. After a while, the ice melted and the fish jumped out. Because of the offerings, people thought it was caused by Xiaogan. "Ci Hai" published by 1979 records: "There is a story of Wang Xiang begging for carp on the ice."

Lying on the ice eating carp
In Baishabu Town, north of Linyi City, an east-west river winds through the town for several miles. Is the river, where the story of Wang Xiang lying on the ice looking for carp fish happened.
There are seven songs in "Twenty-four Filial Piety" from Linyi. The story of Wang Xiang begging for carp on ice is
Wang Xiang sleeps on ice carp for official position (as evidenced by stone tablet)
Pushed as the first of the "twenty-four filial piety", it has the most far-reaching influence. There are statues of Wang Xiang, Wang Lan and Wang Xizhi in the "Xiaoyou Temple" on the north bank of the river.
In Baishabu Town, north of Linyi City, an east-west river winds through the town for several miles. It is not an ordinary river, but has a long history, bearing the fine tradition of filial piety in China for thousands of years. It is the place where the story of Wang Xiang lying on the ice looking for carp happened: the river.
Xiaohe, named after the carp lying in Wangxiang, also known as Xiaogan River, is located in Baishabu Town, lanshan district. According to the records of Linyi County, the river originated in Taohualing at the southern foot of Chashan Mountain, flowed through Xiaoyou Village in the southeast, and merged into Yihe River in Zhuge Village.

Before and after, many people with other surnames came to pay homage to Wang Xiang, and some even brought their children to receive education.
Comment editor
After Wang Xiang's mother died, she had a stepmother, Zhu. The stepmother was unkind and spoke ill of Wang Xiang several times in front of her father. It means slander. Because of this, Wang Xiang once again lost his father's love. Once, my stepmother wanted to eat fresh fish. It was freezing. Wang Xiang took off his clothes and lay on the ice begging for fish. The ice suddenly melted by itself and a pair of carp jumped out. Wang Xiang caught two carp and went home to support his stepmother.
It is said that the stepmother has been making things difficult for Wang Xiang, asking Wang Xiang to catch yellowbird and bake it for her. This is a very difficult thing to do, but due to filial piety, many yellowbirds automatically flew to Wang Xiang's tent, and Wang Xiang passed another hurdle.
Stepmother still won't let Wang Xiang go. There is a fruit tree at home, which is said to be a plum tree. The fruit is almost ripe, and the stepmother wants Wang Xiang to watch it so as not to let it fall to the ground. So when it's windy and rainy, Wang Xiang will rush to the fruit tree, hold the fruit tree and cry, begging the fruit not to fall.
After all, the human heart is not made of stone. Wang Xiang's stepmother was finally moved by filial piety again and again, finally ashamed of her behavior, and finally took Wang Xiang as her own child.
In "Twenty-four Filial Pieties", there is a theme that has been repeatedly rendered, and that is induction. A dutiful son's filial piety will touch everything in the world and get good returns. The same is true of this story. The story of sleeping on the ice for carp fish once again provides another example for the induction of filial piety. Of course, most of these induced stories have been processed and amplified, so we don't have to take them seriously, but we can extract a core and reasonable wisdom from them, that is, we should be obedient, tolerant and patient to serve our loved ones, even if it is difficult and mean, it can be solved through their sincere filial piety.
In addition, this story also highlights another theme, that is, the relationship between children and stepmother. How can such a family perform filial piety? Like Yu Shun and Min Zikai, we should use our filial piety to reconcile our relationship with stepmother, father and half-brother.
This issue is specifically discussed in Yan Family Instructions: Late Marriage, which is discussed from another angle, that is, it warns children and grandchildren to be particularly cautious in remarriage after losing their wives. He cited many examples. Among them, Yin Jifu, an important official in Zhou Xuanwang, has a eldest son named Birch. His stepmother made mischief between father and son, saying that Birch had evil thoughts on her, and his father exiled him in a rage. Birch composed a piano piece "Lu Shuang Cao" to express his thoughts. His father realized that he had shot his second wife, and the father and son got back together. For example, when his wife died, Ceng Zi refused to remarry and said to his son, I am not as good as Gifford and you are not as good as Birch. Interestingly, Alvin Wong, a minister in the Western Han Dynasty, said: I am not as good as Zeng Shen, and my son is not as good as Huayuan. Hua and Yuan are the two sons of Zeng Yuan.
In the traditional "Twenty-four Filial Pieties", there is also a story of "caring for brothers and feeling for mothers", which is also related to Wang Xiang and can be read through together:
Wang Xiangdi's understanding of characters is in place. Mother Zhu is unkind when she meets Ji. When I was four years old, I saw Xiang being scolded and crying. Dragon and Zhu abused Xiang's wife and visited her. Auspicious is sometimes praised, and Zhu Yi hates it. It is auspicious. Take a sip when you know it, and fight for it, not fight it. Zhu didn't dare to drink, so pour it out quickly. After eating, you must taste it first, and you must sit and lie down together. Zhu regretted it, and he loved browsing.
This story is so vivid that even modern people in the 2 1 century will probably touch their feelings. Wang Xiangzhi's half-brother Wang Lan, when he was four years old, saw his brother Wang Xiang being whipped by his mother, and often held Wang Xiang in his arms to protect his brother in tears. When they grow up, they all marry daughters-in-law. When Zhu abused his wife, Wang Lan's wife also went to protect them. Wang Xiang gradually became famous at that time, and Zhu hated him even more and wanted to poison Wang Xiang with poisoned wine. Wang Lan knew, so he wanted to drink first. Wang Xiang contended for it and refused to give it to his brother. Zhu was afraid that his son, Wang Lan, had drunk the poisoned wine and poured it out quickly. From then on, every time he eats or drinks, Wang Lan has to taste it first, and he will sit and lie down with his brother. Zhu was finally moved and regretted it. He loved Wang Xiang as much as he loved Wang Lan.
Wang Xiang and Wang Lan touched and influenced their mother with their filial piety, and made her return to a moral track that a mother should have. We can also see that the influence of the dutiful son is infinite.
There is a filial village in Baishabu Town, lanshan district, Linyi City, which is Wang Xiang's hometown. From June 5438 to February 2006, the first-class story "Sleeping on the Ice for Carp" was circulated for more than 1700 years, and was successfully selected into the first batch of intangible cultural heritage list in Shandong Province.
I saw a document that there are 3,000 people in Xiaoyou Village, Baishabu Town, lanshan district City, Linyi City, and more than 95% of them are Wang Xingren. Xiaoyou village is built along the river. This river is called Xiaohe, and the story of carp lying on the ice takes place in this river. The freezing of the river is one of the eight scenic spots in Langya. Under the pavilion next to the lotus pond on the river, the Wang Xiang Monument of Jin Yuan Gong, which was lying on the ice during Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty, still stands. The monument was also damaged, and the relevant people collected the rubble nearby and carefully arranged it to restore the monument to its original state. In addition, the lotus root is one of the three treasures in the old city. Legend has it that the lotus root has nine eyes, one more than usual. This eye is filial. In addition, to this day, a stone tablet stands by the Xiaoshun River in Linyi, which is said to be the place where Wang Xiang guarded the plum tree.
Now Wang Xiang's descendants have built an antique filial piety garden by the river, with a Wang Xiang sculpture of a big carp in their arms. There is also a filial piety temple in the filial piety garden, where the Wangs have lived for generations. Xiaoyou Temple was destroyed by the war, the Cultural Revolution and thousands of years of wind and rain, but there are still several broken ancient stone tablets that can prove that this place belongs to Wang Xiang's hometown.
Other information editing
During the general survey of cultural relics, cultural relics workers accidentally found several stone tablets, such as Wangxiang Ancestral Temple and "Golden Taibao Little Wang Xiangzhi Monument", in Laojing Village, Cijian Town, Xin 'an County. Experts said that the discovery of the Wang Xiang Monument once again confirmed that the story of Wang Xiang lying on the ice looking for carp should take place in Xin 'an.
This time, cultural relics workers found a stone tablet in the former site of Wang Xiang ancestral hall in Laojing Village, Cijian Town, Xin 'an County, with the words "Jin Taibao Little Wang Xiangzhi Monument" engraved on the tablet surface; On the lower right, there is the small print "Liang Yi, the great scholar Hua Chibo Dahan, the manager of Henan Fu Road in May of Zheng Zheng's third year"; On the lower left is engraved the small print "Cui Tiemoer's letter of popularization, and Su Zhenglian, Jia Yi's south road, visited the assistant ambassador". There is an ancient poem on the dark side of the monument: "Lying on the ice is good for the mother, and dragon day has a sense of sincere carp. "It is said that the world is a child and the name of Wang Xiang will last forever." According to experts' research, "Zheng Zhi" is the year number of Yuan Shundi, while Bertha Han and Cui Tiemo Erpuhua are Mongolian names. Therefore, this monument should have been built by the Yuan government in Zheng Zhi, Yuan Shundi in the third year (A.D. 1343). In addition, cultural relics workers also found a story of "moving the monument of Wang Jin to Taibao" here. This monument was erected by Wang Xuanya, the 51st generation grandson of Wang Xiang, in the 35th year of the Republic of China (1946).
Experts believe that Luoyang is the capital of the Western Jin Dynasty, Wang Xiang held the post of Taibao in the Western Jin Dynasty, and Luoyang has Wang Xiang and Wang Xiang Ancestral Hall. As early as the Yuan Dynasty, the government erected a monument for Wang Xiang in Xin 'an, and Wang Xiang's descendants have been living in Xin 'an. There are indications that the story of Wang Xiang lying on the ice looking for carp should take place in Xin 'an.
