Who was buried in the legend of Datong Drum Tower?

In ancient times, the drums in Datong Drum Tower were different from those in other places. They always sound like "Wang lung". There is a story in it: during Zheng De's reign in Ming Dynasty (1506- 152 1), restaurants and alleys in Daxi Street in Datong. It is said that he also has a special hobby, specializing in "turning back the donkey with soup". It is to surround the donkey born less than half a year with a woodpile, put salt water with seasoning in the woodpile, and then ignite the woodpile. In this way, the little donkey was parched by the fire and it was unbearable. He drank water desperately, and the more he drank, the more thirsty he became until he was burned alive.

Datong Gu Lou, located in the middle section of South Street, was founded in the Ming Dynasty and rebuilt during the reign of Shunzhi and Qianlong in Qing Dynasty. The drum tower is three stories high and is a cross-shaped building with three rooms wide and deep. The exhibition hall is surrounded by doors, cloister railings and wooden stairs on the first floor. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Drum Tower was the place where the whole city reported the time and gave an alarm. There were "copper leaky pots" and "ding Geng drums" for measuring the time. "Copper Leaky Pot" was made in the Song Dynasty, and it is extremely exquisite.
