After He Qiaoyuan resigned from his official position and returned home, he lived in seclusion in Jingshan outside the north gate of Quanzhou in his later years, so scholars also called him Jingshan Master. His family had "Jingshan Study", "Zishe Zhai" and "Tianting Pavilion", and the four collections of books filled the house, with a collection of tens of thousands of volumes. He had frequent exchanges with local book collectors Huang Juzhong and his son, and Li Maohui, and they exchanged what they had and purchased and copied books. The relationship lasted for more than 50 years, and both of them liked to collect classics and books. After Qiaoyuan's death, his sons He Jiuyun and He Jiushuo compiled his life poems, memorials, letters, etc., named "Complete Works of Mr. He Jingshan", and Huang Juzhong wrote a preface for this book. Among them, the more famous one is "Mingshan Collection" 109 volumes, which is a privately compiled history of the Ming Dynasty; it records historical events from the Hongwu to Longqing (1368-1572) period of the Ming Dynasty, mostly based on notes, unofficial history and old news, and preserves a lot of historical materials that are rarely recorded in other histories. The book was listed as a banned book in the Qing Dynasty. The 154 volumes of Minshu are the earliest and most complete provincial annals in Fujian; the 74 volumes of Huangming Wenzheng are a collection of Ming Dynasty poems and essays; the 72 volumes of He Jingshan Xiansheng are a collection of He's personal memorials, poems and essays. 1. Introduction to the Former Site of Jingshan Academy There is a stone like a mirror at the foot of Daqi Mountain in the northeast of Quanzhou suburbs, so it is also called Jingshan. Ming Dynasty historian He Qiaoyuan built a Jingshe at the foot of the mountain. In his later years, he wrote books and lectured here. He called himself Jingshan. Later generations called it Jingshan Academy, and later changed it to Xiushan Academy. There are many cliff carvings nearby, including "Zuiyue Rock" and "Stone Mirror" inscribed by He Qiaoyuan for the residence of Song Prime Minister Li Bing, "Mirror Pavilion" and "Buyan" inscribed by Ming Yan Tingyu, "Stone Report" inscribed by Xie Xiuzhi, and the inscription of the Prime Minister Ye Xianggao's visit to Jingshan Academy. Introduction: He Qiaoyuan (1558-1631), also known as Zhixiao, Feifei'e, and Jingshan in his later years, was a native of Jinjiang and an outstanding local chronicler. He read widely and lived in the village for more than 20 years. He compiled the events of the 13 Ming dynasties into "Mingshan Zang" and compiled "Minshu" in 150 volumes, which are quite popular. He Qiaoyuan was upright and honest, and dared to write truthfully and express his unique views in history. He also compiled "Anxi County Chronicles", compiled "Wu Rong Complete Works" of poems and essays of Nan'an sages, and wrote "Donghu Junhu Records", "Tong'an Haifeng Dai Records", "Shunji Bridge Records" and so on. Among He Qiaoyuan's dozen works, the most innovative and constructive ones are "Minshu" with 22 chapters and 154 volumes, which is a collection of the chronicles of the eight Fujian counties and counties and refers to the records of previous dynasties, and "Mingshan Zang" with 100 volumes, which compiles the events of the 13 Ming dynasties. The Sikuquanshu included the Minshu and Mingwenzheng in the catalog. He Qiaoyuan's works had a far-reaching influence, but the Qing government seemed to be very uneasy about his writings. The Sikuquanshu Catalogue was very picky about the Minshu, believing that it "contrary to the rules of history", and Mingshanzang was included in the General Catalogue of Forbidden Books. For hundreds of years since the Minshu came out, it has been valued by Chinese and foreign historians. For example, the contemporary Chinese historian Zhang Xinghuo's "Collection of Historical Materials on Sino-Western Transportation", Japan's Kuwabara Zhizang's "Pu Shougeng Research", France's Paul Pelliot's "Research on the Manichean Transmitters in Fujian" and other famous works all competed to quote the materials of the Minshu as evidence. He Qiaoyuan is worthy of being an outstanding local chronicle historian in ancient my country. His academic spirit and masterpiece Minshu will be recorded in history forever! He Qiaoyuan's family is a rare local chronicle family in China. His father He Jiong attached great importance to local documents. He was a scholar and educator in Quanzhou. He was only an instructor and once compiled the Qingyuan Documents. His elder brother He Qiaoqian was also a very talented scholar. He won the title of Jieyuan in the Wanli period, served as a teacher in Jianyang, and compiled the Tanyang Literature. The profound attainments of his father and brother had a great influence on He Qiaoyuan, giving him the opportunity to contact and collect local history of Fujian when he was young, laying a solid foundation for his later compilation of the Minshu. In 1984, the Quanzhou Cultural Relics Management Committee erected a monument "Jingshan Academy Site"
