According to historical records, it was the eve of the Spring Festival in the 27th year of Guangzheng in Later Shu (AD 964).
Meng Chang, the Lord of Later Shu, was good at practicing couplets, so he suddenly issued an order on the occasion of the New Year, requiring his ministers to write couplets on the "Peach Talisman Board" to test their talents. The ministers each wrote a piece and waited patiently for review. Meng Chang read them one by one and was not satisfied with them. So he took up the pen himself and wrote on the "Peach Talisman Board" "New Year Na Yuqing; Festival Number Changchun". This is the earliest Spring Festival couplet recorded in Chinese writing.
