隔断爷娘唤女声。”
blocking the calls of parents away."
清代女诗人谢香塘的诗句，
The poem written by Xie Xiangtang, a female poet in the Qing Dynasty

沮遏其势，
and thwarting the rebellious army as well.
天下之不亡，
The survival of the country
其谁之功也！”
could not have been achieved without his tough and persistent defence."
因为腥风血雨，
The howling wind and stormy rain
所以铮铮铁骨；
builds his unyielding character;
因为赤胆忠心，
The unwavering loyalty
所以功昭日月。
brought him great success.
百代有谁知壮烈，
He truly deserved the title of "Zhongliehou",

while poetry and books help to comprehend the past and the present.
归德古城陈家大院，
The courtyard of the Chen Family in the ancient city of Guide,
一百九十六间明清古典建筑，
with 196 rooms of the classical architectural style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties,
起伏着陈氏家族三百余年的过往。
has witnessed the history of the Chen family for more than 300 years.
青砖灰瓦，典雅别致；
The blue bricks and grey tiles exude an air of refined elegance and distinct uniqueness
回廓连院，深邃幽静。
and the courtyard with winding corridors stretches deep into tranquility.
一座风雨楼，
A building withstood the test of wind and rain
珍藏了桃花扇漫漶的剧情
and enshrined the poignant tale of the Peach Blossom Fan
和绵密的温暖；
and the lingering warmth of bygone days.
一场儿女姻缘，
The matrimonial union between the two families
典藏了同根共荣的家风。
perpetuated the cherished family tradition of standing together through thick and thin.
时间之羽飘逸在诗书之上，
Time, like a gentle feather, gracefully drifts through the annals of history,
留下陈家
leaving behind the resounding historical tale of the Chen family
“一门五翰林,四代词馆家”的历史佳话。
Five Hanlin scholars within one family, and four successive generations of Academy for Literary Talents.
这片明清建筑，
The buildings of the Ming and Qing dynasties
就像一部历史的典籍，
are like an enduring historical classic.
在隐喻的意象与陶然的境界里，
In the realm of metaphorical imagery and serene transcendence,
我感受到，
I can recall
来自它的纯洁、冷静、沉稳的记忆。
a pure, calm and steadfast memory.
28.归德府衙 Government Office of Guide Fu (Superior Prefecture)
踏进归德府衙，
Entering the Government Office of Guide Fu,
展读八百年的府衙文化，
to decode the 800-year-old cultural palimpsest of the government office,
需要宁心静气。
one needs to have a peaceful and meditative mind.
金、元、明、清，
The Jin, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties,
绮丽的沉浮，
the turbulent eras
葳蕤的沧桑，
and the vicissitudes hidden in the profusion
都嵌进了时光的深处。
have been etched into the annals of history.
过府门、
Crossing the gate of the mansion,
仪门、
the gate of ceremony,
戒石亭，
and the Jie Shi Pavilion,
至大堂，
I enter the great hall,
升堂
Court is in session.
衙门审案流程
The trial procedures of the government office
明镜高悬。
where the “正大光明（bright as sun)” mirror suspends high.
府尹坐正中，
Centered beneath the mirror, the magistrate
手持震山河，
grasps the Zhen Shan He, a polished hard wood gravel.
一拍定乾坤，
Once it strikes the ebony bench,
一敲八百年。
its echo carries the weight of legal system for eight hundred years.
一拍一敲之间，
Between each resounding strike and echo,
我听到的是范公留下的，
I heard Lord Fan Zhongyan sigh with sorrow:
“居庙堂之高则忧其民；
“when holding a high position in the court, one worries about the people;
处江湖之远则忧其君”的
when living far from the court, one worries about the sovereign.”
千年忧叹。
one thousand years ago.
如果说归德古城的市井繁华，
If the prosperity of the Guide ancient city
是后人对太平盛世、
is the later generations’ historical reminiscence
世俗安逸的历史回味；
of peaceful prosperity and worldly ease;
那么，
then,
府衙则是人们对政治清明、
the culture of government office is
刚正不阿的精神追求。
the spiritual pursuit of government practitioners for upright governance and integrity.
有一种品格，宏大而深远；
With a character, grand and profound,
有一种精魂，雄伟而高亢，
and a spirit, majestic and high-pitched,
府衙，
the government office
似乎让整个古城都灵动起来。
seems to infuse the whole ancient city with vitality.
29.白云寺 Baiyun Buddhist Temple
在中原四大古刹之一的白云禅寺，
Baiyun Buddhist Temple, one of the four ancient monasteries in the Central Plains,
一切恭敬。
lies bathed in timeless reverence.
康熙寻父的传说，
The legend of Kangxi’s search for his father
氤氲在一棵铁锅槐中，
adds a layer of intrigue to the pagoda tree which rose from an iron cauldron.
树冠笼云，瑞气绕翠，
Its crown towers into celestial clouds while auspicious qi curls around its emerald foliage,
浸染无垠的遐想。
which transports me into a realm of endless reverie.
传说与真实，
Between legend and reality
其实只隔一步之遥。
lies but a breath.
一块“當堂常赏”的御笔碑刻，
An imperial stele inscribed with “Dang Tang Chang Shang”
寓意温婉，撩人思绪。
stirs one’s thoughts.
漫步千年寺院，
and strolling through the one-thousand temple,
stirs one’s thoughts.
在天王殿、
Paying homage to the Heavenly King Hall,
观音殿、
the Avalokitesvara’s Pavilion,
大雄宝殿、
Mahavira Hall,
千佛殿、
Thousand Buddha’s Hall,
佛公灵塔，
and the Buddha’s Stupa,
我试着探寻白云寺香火不熄的禅机。
I try to seek the Zen wisdom behind the perpetual incense at the Baiyun Buddhist Temple.
娑婆世界，
The Saha world
熙熙攘攘，
is bustling with ceaseless activity.
真实与虚幻，
Between reality and illusion,
延展着灵与肉之间，
physically and spiritually,
纵横交错的欲念，
the tangled web of desires
和暗流涌动的红尘悲喜。
spins an endless cycle of joys and sorrows in the mortal world.
在这里，
Here,
佛像沉默不语，
the Buddha statues remain silent,
却能够让你慢下脚步，
yet they can slow down your steps,
躁动的心在那一刻保持安静。
and make your restless heart calm down at that very moment.
30.商丘博物馆 Shangqiu Museum
玄鸟不老，传说不远。
The dark bird is immortal and the legend is eternal.
城墙叠压着城墙，
The city walls are layer upon layer.
梦想叠压着梦想。
Dreams pile upon dreams.
历史的大幕徐徐展开。
History’s pages are unfolded gradually like a silk scroll.
漫步在商丘博物馆，
Wandering in the Shangqiu Museum,
我一遍遍回味着，
I savor the treasures over and over again,
由简入繁的珍宝，
from simplicity to complexity ,
象牙、
ivory,
骨角、
bone horn,
陶器、
pottery,
瓷器、
porcelain,
玉器、
jade,
青铜器、
bronze ware,
汉代画像石……
stone relief of the Han dynasty...
都是生命的刻度。
All of these are the marks of life.
从远古到夏商，
From the ancient times to the Xia and Shang dynasties,
从古宋春秋到汉梁之魂，
from the State of Song in the Spring and Autumn period to the State of Liang in the Han dynasty,
从青铜到甲骨，
from the bronze wares to the oracle bones,
从金缕玉衣到“敦煌前之汉墓壁画”，
from the gold-threaded jade suit to “the murals of Han mausoleum prior to Dunhuang”,
岁月是指尖的流沙，
time trickles through the fingers like desert sand,
深邃而辽阔。
profound and vast.
溯远古之浩瀚，
By tracing the vastness of ancient times,
感故事以沧桑；
I perceive the vicissitudes of stories.
秉天地之护佑，
With the blessing of heaven and earth,
敬先祖以拓荒。
we pay homage to the ancestors and carry forward the pioneering spirit.
在商丘博物馆，
In the Shangqiu Museum,
览王朝兴衰，
I recall the rise and decline of the dynasties.
读历史镜鉴，
Through the mirror of history,
我摘取了世事繁花。
and I pluck blossoms of worldly wisdom.
