It is the royal palace of the Qing Dynasty peasant uprising regime Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Li Wang, the most complete building that survived the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and remains in Chinese history. The most complete peasant uprising army Wangfu was announced by the State Council as a national key cultural relics protection unit in 1961.

History
The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom of the Suzhou City is the most complete set of historical buildings of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. It is located at No. 204, Northeast Street, Tuen Mun, Suzhou. It is now the Suzhou Museum. Approved by the State Council in March 1961, it was listed as the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units. In October 1964, due to the influence of the extreme left route, it was announced to be revoked. In 1981, with the approval of the State Council, it was agreed to revert to the national key cultural relics protection unit.

Li Xiucheng: (AD 1823-1864), a native of Tengxian County, Guangxi, “the bitterness of the family, the days can not be, the degree of difficulty is difficult… cold and no food.” When he joined the army, he was a soldier. After he settled in Tianjing, he was promoted by Yang Xiuqing as the right fourth army commander. Later, he was the supervisor, the commander, and the local official. In 1859, Feng Zhongwang, who had a loyalty to the king in Tianjing, was an important military commander in the late Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. He was partially cracked in the Taipingtian, and Tianjing was attacked by the Qing army in the north and south. He led the army to break the Qinghainan camp and drove straight into it. He took Changzhou, Wuxi, Suzhou and Hangzhou all the way, and opened up the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Jiangnan base area—Sufu Province. Suzhou is the provincial government.

In June 1860 (Tai Ping Tian Guo Geng Shen in April), Zhong Wang Li Xiucheng led the Taiping army to conquer Suzhou. In August of this year, Zhong Wang Li Xiucheng concentrated thousands of migrant workers, based on the site of the Humble Administrator’s Garden. In the middle of the city, the North Street, Mianli Li Xu, according to Wang’s house, Adjacent Lianzheng Zhengyuan structure and the confiscation of its East Pan and Xiwang surnames, expanded to the use of the palace.” After more than three years of operation. Finally, it has been built into a grand building with a combination of offices, houses and gardens. This is the royal palace of Li Xiucheng in Suzhou during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, which is second to none in Jiangnan.

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Chung Wang House is located at the former site of the Qizheng Garden in Tuen Mun, Northeast Street, Suzhou. If you look back at it, the area was originally the residence of Wu Yulin in the Three Kingdoms (187-219 AD), and there was Gao Shidai in the Eastern Jin Dynasty (AD 378). -441 years) House, the late Tang poet Lu Guimeng (AD? – AD 881). At that time, there was a metaphor of “not going out of the country, and if it was a villa.” In the Northern Song Dynasty, the Shanyin Book Hu Yanyan built the “Five Liutang” here, and his son Hu Yujian “like the village”. The Yuan Dynasty was Dahong Temple. In the fourth year of Ming Zhengde (AD 1509), the imperial censor Wang Xianchen abandoned the official retreat, and built the villa with the Dahongsi waste base. He took the Western Jin Dynasty Pan Yue’s “Sleeping Fu” meaning: “Building a room for planting trees and gardening vegetables, … is also a leader It is also a political policy, named “Humble Administrator’s Garden.” The first construction of the Humble Administrator’s Garden, “Guangxi more than 200 acres, Maoshu Quchi, wins the world.” After Wang’s death, his son was not happy. When he lost the park to Xu Tai, the descendants of Xu’s family also declined, and the garden gradually became ruined. Chongzhen four years (AD 1631), the prince Wang Xinyi purchased, Chongzhen eight years (AD 1635), completed “homeland”. At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, Qian Qianyi built a house in the west of the “Hanzheng Garden”, and settled the name of Liu Ruru. In the 10th year of Shunzhi (AD 1653), Shi Haining Chen Shizhen purchased the park for two thousand gold. In the early years of Emperor Kangxi, Wu Sangui’s Wang Yongning’s income was added, and the major events were upgraded. “Yifu is a high-class building, and it is extremely luxurious.” In the twenty-third year of Emperor Kangxi (AD 1684), Emperor Kangxi of the Kangxi Emperor visited the park. In the third year of Qianlong (AD 1738), it was divided into two. The east was returned to Taishou Jiang Yixian, and it was rebuilt and renamed Fuyuan. West is owned by Ye Shikuan and another book garden. In the middle of Jiaqing, Fuyuan was obtained from the criminal investigation of Langzhong. Daoguang was returned to the university student Wu Hao and renamed Wu Yuan. The book garden is owned by the sergeant Shen Yuanzhen. In the eastern residence, Qing Jiaqing and Daoguang years, they have been awarded to the Ministry of Education, and Pan Shiyi and his son Pan are engaged in the construction of Ruiqi Book House.

Qing Xianfeng in April (June 1860), Zhongwang Li Xiucheng led the Taiping Army to conquer Suzhou, and established Sufu Province with Suzhou as the center. In August, Li Xiucheng merged the part of the Humble Administrator’s Garden with the eastern part of Pan Aixuan (Pan’s Son) and the West Wang Shuo’s house, and merged it into the “Zhongwangfu”, and repaired it again. “The garden pavilion is all fine.” Tao Xun, “Yu Feng Li Geng Shen Wen Wen Lu” Xian Feng tenth August eighth note said: “Yu Shi began to sigh in the Sucheng North Street Humble Administrator’s Garden infrastructure pseudo-king.” Pan Panrui’s “Sutai Lulu Ji” said: “Zhuzhong emirates in the city of North Street, Mianli Li Xu, according to Wang’s house, 纰 (adjacent) Lianzhengyuan structure and confiscated its Dong Pan and Xiwang surnames Expanded to use the palace.” The number of construction workers used is based on the Wujiang people’s tiredness and old age, “Geng Yu Ji Lue” said: “The thousands of soldiers are made.” The Suzhou people’s snorkeling fisherman’s “Liaoyu ash record” said: “The craftsmanship is hundreds of people, and it’s not awkward all the year round.” “Working is not awkward, the city has broken.” In addition, when Li Xiucheng built the Zhongwang Palace, in accordance with the specifications of the Wangfu, there were two drum pavilions and east and west gates outside the gate of the Chung King Mansion. The east and west gates were lined up on both sides, and a turret stood majesticly above the Tuen Mun. The entire palace can be divided into three parts: the middle, the east and the west. According to records, there are also many observation towers in the government.

In the second year of Qing Tongzhi (AD 1863), Li Hongzhang suppressed the Taiping army and captured Suzhou. After occupying the loyalty to the king, he took Zhongwangfu as his governor of Jiangsu. In his family letter to his brother Li Hezhang, he said: “Zhongwangfu, Qionglou Yuyu, Qudongfang, really like a fairy cave house”, “Garden three or four, two or three theaters, and the place where the life is not seen”, Said: “Zhongwangfu dozens of houses, hundreds of people follow, they live to open.” In particular, the paintings in the Zhongwang Palace are recorded from the “Blood Banknotes”: “Zhao Chenglin enters the government and fills the paintings.” Shi Chenglin was a painter, and the Taiping army was revived in Changzhou. It was enlisted in the Taiping Army and joined the army to Suzhou. All this fully explained the “scale of the Soviet Union”.

Since the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom’s loyalty to the king’s palace was built according to the rules of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, it was grand and magnificent, and it was incomparable to the Qing Dynasty bureaucrats. According to Wang Bingqian’s “Provincial Rehabilitation on Li Fu’s Military Situation”, “There is an urgent need to eradicate the ruin. Since the thief fell into a shackle, the construction of a pseudo-house, carving and painting, is extremely embarrassing. It has now been accepted as the official office, its head Panlong Jincai, all the rebellious, eager to freely cut, change the rules, to watch. The rest of the book stickers and the pseudo-building arches outside the city, should be quickly demolished, eradicating the cleanliness, cleansing, refreshing. (“The Book of Self-Deception”, Volume VI). And Gong Zicun’s “Self-Every Diary” volume twenty-three, Qing Tongzhi three years on May 22, remembered: “Move the boat to close the customs, to see the new department, the Wu and Wang two houses, once a false loyalty Wangfu, the realm of the realm, Yu is the door, also rich.” The failure of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Li Hongzhang occupied Zhongwangfu as a temporary “Jiangsu governor’s martial arts”, fearing that he would accuse the “trick system” and thus reconstruct the Zhongwang House according to the regulations of the Qing Dynasty. Change the gate of the Shanyu House on the top of the mountain to the despicable hard-top gate, and the two gates and the drum pavilion are gone, and the dazzling paintings on the gates are also painted, especially the paintings. The dragon “decorated” was not coated, and the two sides of the main hall on the spine were “Feng Peony” and survived.

In the five years of Qing Tongzhi (AD 1866), the governor Tuen Mun moved out. Qing Tongzhi ten years (AD 1871), Hebei Nanpi Zhang Zhiwan (Guangxu was a university scholar) when he was a governor of Jiangsu, living in the eastern residence, and then with the right Buzheng Enxi, managing Suzhou Weaving Tang Deshou The Grain Reserve and Dao Yingpu were negotiating and advocating the establishment of the Guild Hall. In the first month of Tongzhi 11 (AD 1872), the Central Garden and the eastern and western residences were changed to the Eight Banners Fengzhi Hall, and the gardens were restored to the original name of the Humble Administrator’s Garden. The western part of the park was placed in Zhang Guangqian in the 5th year of Guangxu (AD 1879), and another garden was built.

After the Revolution of 1911 (AD 1911), the Eight Flags were directly renamed the Fengzhi Hall. In the nine years of the Republic of China (1920), the eastern residence was leased with Li Hongzhang’s nephew, former Yungui Governor Li Jingyu, and later Li Hesun inherited, moved to Hong Kong, and mortgaged a bank before liberation. In the anti-Japanese war in the western part of the country, in the 27th year of the Republic of China (AD 1938), it was rented by the pseudo-province of Jiangsu Province, Chen Zemin, as the office of the pseudo-provincial government.

In September 1946, the National Institute of Social Education moved from Sichuan Bianshan to Suzhou as a school building, and the eastern residence was also used by the college.

In April 1949, Suzhou was liberated, and the School of Social Education moved to Wuxi. It was used by the Suzhou Administrative Commissioner of Sunan. In November 1951, it was placed under the management of the Cultural Relics Management Committee of Southern Jiangsu. The cultural management department immediately repaired it and completed it in October 1952. On November 6 of the same year, the central and western part of the Humble Administrator’s Garden, which was renovated after the renovation, was officially opened to the public. The east was a garden and staff quarters. The front of the park was a house, and the middle part was returned to the Southern Jiangsu Cultural Management Association. For use, the East Residence is the Suzhou Library in Southern Jiangsu and the Western Residence is Hongze Primary School. In this way, the historical loyalty palace was once again dismembered, and as the place where the Sunan Cultural Management Committee was deposited, it was then the preparatory office of the Jiangsu Provincial Museum.

On the New Year’s Day in 1960, the Suzhou Museum was established.

In March 1961, the State Council also announced that both the Humble Administrator’s Garden and the Zhongwang House were the first batch of key cultural relics protection units in the country. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom’s loyalty to the king’s house is numbered 3, and the Humble Administrator’s Garden is numbered 121. The pattern of the Zhongwangfu remains to this day.
