Kangjitian Shimei Li Town West Street originally had the Song Dynasty Xian Wang Shide (Boguang) Ancestral Hall, with three houses, a total of 16 rooms. In the 29th year of Qianlong, Kang Jitian went to Mei Li, and he immediately organized the removal of the statue of Wang Shide to his temple and changed it to the wooden tablet. The original ancestral hall was renovated, and the land was expanded by 3 acres, and the gate hall and dormitory were added, and it was rebuilt into Mei Li College. At the same time, the local gentlemen donated 140 acres of land, and Kangjitian personally donated 500 taels of silver as the school's running funds. Kang Ki-tian also wrote his own inscription and invited Xiaolian to give lectures. [Original text ]
