Who is the oldest person in Yizhou, Guangxi? Hehe, let me tell you. It's Lan Xiang. I will give you some information about him. × Lan Xiang, male, born in Jiadong Village, Yongding Tusi, Qing Dynasty (now Long Fu Township, Yizhou), was born in the seventh year of Kangxi (A.D. 1668). According to the record of keeping fit in the fast (Volume II): "In the fifteenth year of Jiaqing (18 10), I was 142 years old and was given six crowns. I think this is rare in modern times. " Emperor Jiaqing's royal poem congratulations. Qing invited him to dinner, and his great-grandson came to the office with his hands. At that time, the government office asked the painter to draw a Shou Xingtu for Lan Xiang. According to Ren's "Two Essays on Autumn Rain", he was 65,438 0.42 years old at that time, but he still had "no eyes and ears" ... and drank too much ". In the eighteenth year of Jiaqing, Lan Xiang died at the age of 145. There is a blue auspicious archway outside the south gate of Qingyuan Fucheng and next to Yongding Department, respectively, with two imperial poems engraved on it, one in the Yubei Pavilion of the East Campus and the other in front of Yongding Department of Yizhou Sanzhai Village. The former monument was lost early, and the later monument was moved to the big banyan tree in Bailong Park in the north of the city.
At present, the materials we have seen, such as Qingyuan County Records, Yishan County Records and Yizhou City Records, all show that Lan Xiang is from Yizhou, but none of them say that Lan Xiang is from Bama. I don't know when Lan Xiang came to Bama. What a mystery!
