Ouyang xiu was demoted as the satrap of Chuzhou, feeling angry at that time and caring for the mountains and rivers. He often visits Langya Mountain with friends and guests and drinks in Langya Temple to express his feelings. Ji Xian, a monk in Langya Mountain, sympathized with and loved Ouyang Xiu. In order to let Ouyang Xiu rest and drink water, he built this pavilion halfway up the mountain. Ouyang Xiu named the pavilion "Zuiweng Pavilion" and "Zuiweng Pavilion". This pavilion has been abandoned many times.

At that time, Dr. Shen Zun, the doctor of Taichang, came here, and after watching it, he created a piano song "Intoxicating Songs" (a song called "Taishoucao") with Ouyang Xiuqin as the lyrics. Now a couplet in front of Feng Gong Temple, "Spring sounds like a satrap, and the sea and sky shine on Langya Mountain", means this. After several years, Ouyang Xiu and Shen respect each other, "Drinking at midnight", and Shen Zun plays the piano "Song of the Drunken Man" and "Three Rings in the Palace Que", "Like a phoenix, birds are singing in the warm sun, and spring is ringing in the quiet mountains at night". The sound of the piano reminded Ou Gong of swimming and drinking in the pavilion, that is, writing poems as gifts.
