"good."

He Ying nodded:

"Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty not only fully implemented the "Sinicization" policy, but also presided over and appointed ministers to build Luoyang in the Northern Wei Dynasty. This is the largest capital city in Chinese history, even Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty can not be compared."

"The biggest capital city?" Tang Guoguo was surprised, but she was clearly thinking more and more. "Big? Is that his idea?"

"Of course not, this picture is the focus of what I want to talk about." He Ying couldn't understand Tang Guoguo's brain circuit, denied it and clicked on a picture.

On this map of Luoyang in the Northern Wei Dynasty, Tang Guoguo not only saw a river named "Luoshui" in the south, but also the directions of the courts and cities were different from the norms of craftsmen running a country in "Kao Gong Ji".

After making sure that she remembered the notes correctly, she asked again: "The city of Luoyang in the Northern Wei Dynasty and the city of Ye built by Cao Cao look similar, but they are different. Am I right?"

"Guoguo's eyesight is really amazing!"

He Ying never spared her encouragement. As she spoke, she circled Luoshui in the south of the city and the city in the south of the city on the PPT with a laser pointer.

And several unfamiliar names on the picture also appeared one by one after she pressed the button:

"Before the construction of Luoyang City in the Northern Wei Dynasty, Emperor Xiaowen Tuobahong sent people to inspect Luoyang in the Cao Wei Dynasty and Cao Cao's Ye City. While learning experience, he did not want to copy and imitate, so he put forward the concept of 'removing the old and promoting the new'. The architects appointed by him to co-build and renovate are Sikong Muliang, water envoy Jiang Shaoyou, general craftsmen Dong Er, Li Chong, Wang Yu and others."

Hearing the saying "remove the old and revive the new", Gu Zhaodi immediately understood:

"So the design of Luoyang in the Northern Wei Dynasty basically adopted the pattern of "Kao Gong Ji", but in order to use the river in the south of the city to develop the economy and create shipping conditions for sending troops to the south, the actual planners had to break the norm of "the former dynasty and the later market" , and arranged the 'city' in the south direction of the 'chao'. Emperor Xiaowen's concept is indeed different by making flexible use of geographical conditions to design the capital."

Chu Mingchen, who no longer bickered with Lou Xinyue, heard this seriously, and suddenly had a different opinion:

"It's not unusual to be able to come up with an idea. I think that Mu Liang and Li Chong, who are the actual planners and builders of this capital, can be considered great architects!"

"Yes!~"

Tang Guoguo nodded in agreement. If it were him, he would never be able to figure out how to satisfy the whimsy of the "owner" Emperor Xiaowen.

"Indeed."

He Ying also thought so, but she did not expand on the great achievements of these people, but continued to introduce the architectural upsurge caused by the royal family and nobles in the Northern Wei Dynasty after the capital was moved to Luoyang in the Northern Wei Dynasty:

"After that, the style of gardens prevailed in the architecture of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and a large number of buildings that could 'look down on the market' appeared; and because the city was in the south and the dynasty was in the north, it was not surprising that the market flourished and merchants gathered; Inner residents also live in clusters based on professional division of labor, resulting in a regular Lifang system, which has a strict hierarchy and strict management system, which has also had a profound impact on the planning of later generations of cities."

He Ying spoke seriously, and the other four listened carefully.

It was completely unexpected that Luoyang City in the Northern Wei Dynasty, which was destroyed only 42 years ago, would have such a high status in the history of Chinese architecture.

However, Chu Mingchen listened and felt that He Ying seemed to have missed one of the most important things.

Seeing that she didn't seem to want to continue talking, she raised her hand to remind: "Senior He Ying, why do I remember that Buddhist temples and pagodas were particularly rampant in this period, isn't this one worth talking about?"

"It's because it's worth talking about in depth, so we have to read the next paragraph!" He Ying said and clicked on the next page of PPT.

The above topic happened to be Chu Mingchen's supplement.

The pioneers of Chinese pagoda construction technology - Zuimu Huaiwen and Guo Anxing.

"I can also recite poems related to pagodas." Seeing Lou Xinyue opened her mouth again, Chu Mingchen took a step ahead of her, "How many towers are in the mist and rain in the 480 temples of the Southern Dynasty!"

Lou Xinyue was robbed of her lines, so she could only give Chu Mingchen a blank look: "Please, isn't this poem describing the Buddhist pagoda in the Northern Wei Dynasty?"

"Then you memorized a description of the Buddhist pagoda of the Northern Wei Dynasty!" Chu Mingchen sneered twice, obviously taking provocation of this vase as a daily compulsory course.

"Joke, you let Miss Ben recite it?"

"Cut~ If you can't, just say no! It's not ashamed!"

"Then what if I recite it?"

When Chu Mingchen saw that Lou Xinyue didn't back down, but turned against him instead, he immediately lost his temper: "If you can recite it, I will be on the saddle and back from Chu Mingchen, and I will be at your Miss Lou's beck and call!"

Seeing that Chu Mingchen was really coming, He Ying wanted to dissuade him: "Chu Mingchen, do you want to think about it again!"

"That's right, Chu Mingchen, Lou Xinyue is from the Department of Chinese Language and Literature, and she can learn ancient prose." Tang Guoguo saw that He Ying was hesitant to speak, and after thinking about it, she only added, "And she always recites dramas." Lines"

Unexpectedly, Chu Mingchen didn't believe at all that this star-chaser girl who was only nympho could understand the original text of Yongning Temple Pagoda in "Luoyang Jialan Ji".

The two days of fighting openly and secretly had already made him want to frustrate this vase:
"What am I thinking about? I'm willing to bet and admit defeat!"

"You said it yourself!" Lou Xinyue said with a slight smile on her lips.

He Ying and Tang Guoguo looked helpless, but Gu Zhaodi sat quietly, watching the fire from the other side.

Seeing that Lou Xinyue was not in a hurry, she got up and said, "The most famous Buddhist temple and pagoda in the Northern Wei Dynasty are Yongning Temple and its pagoda."

"Yo, you still know about Yongning Temple?" A hint of surprise flashed in Chu Mingchen's eyes.

"Yongning Temple was built by Empress Dowager Ling after Emperor Xiaoming of the Northern Wei Dynasty succeeded to the throne." Lou Xinyue rolled her eyes at Chu Mingchen, and burst into laughter in her heart. .”

"In the middle there is a nine-storey pagoda, which is made of wood and raised ninety feet high. There is a gold vase on the brake, which holds 25 stones. Under the vase, there are thirty gold plates bearing dew. There are four iron cables leading to the pagoda. The pagoda has four sides, three houses and six windows on each side, all of which are painted with red lacquer. The embroidered pillars and gold shop are shocking. As for the high wind and eternal night, Baoduo's harmony and clanging sound can be heard for more than ten miles. "

Hearing this fluent recitation, Chu Mingchen was dumbfounded: "You can also recite the full text of this thing?"

Lou Xinyue rolled her eyes: "A big man keeps his word!"

"You are too against the sky!" Chu Mingchen said and cast an incredible look at He Ying, "Sister He Ying, didn't you say that Lou Xinyue knows how to chase stars, but actually knows nothing?"

"Cough!" He Ying didn't know how to explain, she cleared her throat and clicked on the next PPT page, "Actually, Lou Xinyue added this content for me."

"What?" Chu Mingchen couldn't believe that he would use this vase as a horse in the future, "How many of you knew this earlier? And you just watched me fall into her trap?"

He Ying also wanted to say that she was also shocked.

And, not only that.

Last night, Tang Guoguo and Gu Zhaodi were there when they were perfecting this part of the content. They heard Lou Xinyue memorize this part verbatim, and they volunteered to say, why do you want to recite the content from the Sui Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty? In ancient times, all ancient books, poems and songs related to ancient buildings were sorted out.

Who made Chu Mingchen self-righteous and bump into Lou Xinyue's muzzle?
The others ignored Chu Mingchen's wailing and began to discuss this famous Buddhist pagoda in the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Gu Zhaodi: "It is said that the pagoda of Yongning Temple was the tallest building in the world at that time. Converted into the current measurement unit, it is 140 meters, and the height is 2.2 times that of the existing wooden pagoda in Ying County, Shanxi!"

"Ah~! How tall is it?" Tang Guoguo looked longingly, "Isn't this the ancient skyscraper?"

"It can be said this way." Regarding the field she is good at, Gu Zhaodi's answer is always very professional. "The tower is a civil building, and the center of the Yongning Temple tower has sixteen wooden columns, which is very similar to the ' core' structure."

"That's right." He Ying saw that Gu Zhaodi extended some content, and began to add, "And this kind of building is very earthquake-resistant. For example, the wooden pagoda in Ying County has survived many earthquakes without falling down."

Hearing this, Lou Xinyue was puzzled: "Since the structure of the pagoda is so powerful, why did the pagoda of Yongning Temple disappear?"

This question was quickly answered by He Ying: "Actually, this period of history is turbulent, and the change of imperial power is like a revolving lantern. Therefore, not only many pagodas, but also countless ancient buildings such as grottoes will be destroyed for various reasons. For example, the extermination of Buddha Movement, many Buddhist temples, pagodas and cave statues were destroyed."

"This is due to man-made reasons." Gu Zhaodi added, "In fact, there are still many natural disasters, which will also bring disasters to ancient buildings, such as major earthquakes."

"But isn't the wooden structure of ancient buildings very earthquake-resistant?" Tang Guoguo questioned.

"It also depends on the power and level of the earthquake. If it's just shaking, it can be avoided." Gu Zhaodi said, with a regretful expression on his face, "If the level of the earthquake is too high, or mudslides, landslides, and cracks on the ground surface, then the ancient Buildings are also hard to survive."

"I know this!" Lou Xinyue said bluntly, "During the Sichuan earthquake ten years ago, many ancient buildings were destroyed. At that time, the mountains collapsed and the ground cracked. I heard that the two mountains merged into one. Not only did many compatriots die, There are still many ancient buildings that have disappeared, I will look them up online.”

When mentioning the great earthquake ten years ago, He Ying's face turned pale for a moment. She wanted to stop it, but she didn't know how to speak.

Chu Mingchen was a little impatient: "I said, let's not mention the earthquake, shall we?"

"Why? Hey, I found it!" Lou Xinyue ignored her defeated general and read aloud according to the list of ancient buildings destroyed on the Internet, "The ancient buildings destroyed by the earthquake include Dujiangyan II Wang Temple, Du Fu Thatched Cottage, Wuhou Temple, Pingwu Baoen Temple"

But before she finished speaking, Chu Mingchen, who had an unscrupulous face just now, suddenly turned cold, and his tone was terrifying:
"I said stop talking! Can't you hear me!!!"

After he finished speaking, he got up and slammed the door and left the classroom.

I just finished talking about the hot weather yesterday, and today I suffered from heatstroke. I lay down for a whole day, dizzy and nauseous, and couldn’t eat. It didn’t get better until [-]:[-] pm. There are not many manuscripts left. I revised them today and sent them out reluctantly. .terribly sorry.
