Lu Fu, the owner of Lu Fu, was a member of the cabinet of Ming Jiajing. The official to Zhu Guo and Shao Fu had successively held the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Education. Lufu starts from Wan'an Bridge in the east and Xiegong Bridge in the west, covering an area of 48 acres. There are thirteen halls in the south, so it is also called the 13th Hall of Lufu. All buildings are arranged according to three longitudinal axes and five horizontal axes. The central longitudinal axis is the car hall, Yong Entang, San Hall, Four Halls and Five Halls. The two vertical axes of the east and west, in turn, are the archway and the hall. The fifth horizontal axis is the building, the rest are square, the building is surrounded by water on the south, west and north sides, but the thing is a stone road leading to the market. This pattern is very similar to Zhujiazhuang described in The Water Margin. The Lufu architectural complex is one of the two Ming Dynasty ancient residential buildings with certain cultural value in Zhejiang Province. The past is like a smoke, all the way to go, Lu Ge old has already turned into a loess, and now Lu Fu has become the Wang Yangming Memorial Hall. Wang Shouren, the word Bo'an, No. Yangming, the reason why Yang Ming, because he once built a room in the Huiyangshan Yangmingdong, so the self-name Yang Mingzi, the world is called Yang Mr. Ming, because his nickname is Wencheng, is also known as Wang Wencheng.

Mr. Yang Ming and Confucius, Mencius and Zhu Xi are also known as Confucius and Mencius Zhu. Confucius and Mencius do not have to say that Zhu Xi is the master of Cheng and Zhu Lixue, and Yang Mings theory of Yang Ming is the most influential in the Ming Dynasty. Philosophical thinking. His academic ideas have spread to China, Japan, the Korean Peninsula, and Southeast Asia. Liede and Li Yan have always achieved the same goal.

Lvuli displayed a large number of Mr. Yang Ming's life data, detailed history records and poetry famous articles, systematically introduced his historical achievements and ideological status, and Yangming's profound influence on the world at home and abroad. In the memorial hall, you can also have a course of "integration of knowing and doing", which is one of the core ideas of Yangming. It is a problem that has plagued the philosophical world for thousands of years. The former sages were too "know" or too "heavy", and each had its drawbacks.

The Xixiao River is not long. It is only over 700 meters. The riverside still lives with people living here. The bluestone paved road, the white wall and the tile, the ancient atmosphere floats along the riverside, occasionally a screaming, sketching out An old Shaoxing style painting. At first glance, the houses are not eye-catching, far from the urban skyscrapers and steel forests to get the modern fashion, but retain the most rustic gentleness of the Jiangnan water town. A few bamboo poles set up a rack on the river bank and propped up a family's balcony. In the daytime, I wash vegetables in the riverside, and at night I have a river to sleep, and the pillow river people sleep in the moon, and the water town is full of them. The red lantern on the top of the head is hung high. The old man is sitting on the bamboo chair beside the street, and the wrinkles on his face are engraved with the chisel marks of spring, summer, autumn and winter. It is the story of the years. The water is deep, plain and serene. Chinese cabbage is laid on the steps of the bridge deck. The pedestrians in the past walked carefully and seemed to be afraid of shattering the tranquility of the morning. When the end of the year, these vegetables would be golden in color, salty and sour. Prunes, put on the dinner table at home.
