Le Kang Zhai Congchao "Zhang Qian anti-tea" legend related information.

Kim? Zhang Hua's Natural History records the story of a sea traveler who went to Tianhe by tea boat. When it spread to the Northern and Southern Dynasties, it was accompanied by a legend that Zhang Qian of the Han Dynasty went upstream from branch to branch in order to find the source of the Yellow River. Unexpectedly, he met the Weaver Girl and gave him a stone that she used to support the loom. It is said that the stone that the Weaver Girl gave him was later called the machine stone, which was known by Dong Fangshuo and Yan Junping. This story was first seen in the Southern Dynasties? Song? Liu Yiqing's "Forest Picking", but this article does not point out the specific person who is looking for Heyuan by car. Who is Cheng Cha looking for the source of the Yellow River in Zhang Qian? Liang? Yu Xin's father-son poems are gradually emerging. Yu Jianwu's poem "Jiangzhou Chinese Valentine's Day": "When Jiujiang meets Chinese Valentine's Day, the first string is worth the early autumn. The milky way reflects the water, and the weaver girl wants to board the boat. Han made everyone a guest, and the stars fell. " His son Yu Xin's "Qixi" poem: "The stars communicate with the Chinese envoys, and the stone chases the immortals." The "Han envoy" in the poem refers to the envoy of the Han Dynasty. However, it is only said that it is an envoy of the Han Dynasty, and the specific figures are not exactly pointed out. At the same time, Zhang Qian was directly pointed out in Zonggu's Chronicle of Jingchu. Now I see these materials copied here:

Don? Bai Juyi's "Six Posts" Volume 2 cited the Six Dynasties? Song? Liu Yiqing's Logging: "Once upon a time, there was a man looking for the source of a river. He saw a woman washing gauze and asked,' This Tianhe is here'. But he came back with a stone and asked Yan Junping. He said, "This weaver girl supports a stone." "

Song? Chronology of Chen Sui (Volume 27): Chronology of Jingchu Sui: Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ordered Zhang Qian to take a trip to Heyuan in summer. He took a bus to a place where he saw the city wall as an official, a woman weaving indoors, and her husband and a cow drinking river. ① Money asked, "Where is this?" Answer: "Ask Yan Junping". The weaver girl took the stone and the stone and gave it back. (2) Later, I went to Shuzhong to ask Junping, and Junping replied,' I made a guest appearance as a cow one day'. The obtained machine stone is known to Dong Fangshuo. (3) Taiping Yulan Volume 51 quoted Jingchu Chronicle: "Zhang Qian found a stone at the source of the river, and said,' This stone is the stone of the weaver girl in the sky. Why is it here? " "

Don? Zhao Lin's Notes on Shuowen Jiezi (Volume 5): Hanshu contains the source of Zhang Qian's poor river (there is no record in Hanshu, so it is assumed by the author). It is said that it is far away, but Zhang Maoxian's Natural History says ... (For a brief introduction, see the fairy tale of Tianhe Bucha published yesterday. Today, there are stones in the Yanzhen Temple in Chengdu, and the custom calls them machine stones, all of which are clouds: Junping left them at that time. In the Pauli calendar, the rest of the people went home. On the way to Luo Jing, he met an official and handed over her husband, Zhang Qian Raft. First he was banned in Chengdu, and now he is allowed to ask for letters from the company. I don't know what that is. There are often Zhang Qian Raft in the poems of predecessors, and it is not enough to attack the wrong books. "

note:

(1) Jingchu Years Old, Southern Dynasties? Liang? Zong Zhuo wrote. The original text has been lost, and its remnants can be seen in the books cited in the Song Dynasty. Kang Press: See the article "Chronicles of Jingchu" quoted from Song Dynasty? Hu Zai's "Tiaoxi Fishing and Conceiving Conghua" Preepisode? & lt Du Shaoling > Sixth, the text remains unchanged, and the first sentence has the words "Zhang Hua is a naturalist". The Qing dynasty "sikuquanshu catalogue" volume 70, history department? There is a volume of Chronicle of Jingchu in geography, but there is a sentence: "Zhou Mi's Miscellaneous Knowledge of Gui Xin led Zhang Qian to Tianhe to meet the Weaver Girl, and he got a stone. The Chronicle of Jingchu came out, but there is no such thing today." Zhang Qian: A famous diplomat in the period of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, he was sent to various countries in the western regions on the orders of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty for many times, and his official title was corps commander. Historical records? "Biography of Zhang Qian": "Zhang Qian took a captain from the general to attack the Xiongnu, and learned that there were many troops in the aquatic plants, so he was named the Prince of Bo." Dispatch: Send a special envoy. Heroes: Ancient country name, also called Greece? The kingdom of Bakteri, which was called Daxia in Han Dynasty, was destroyed by Dayue people. It is recorded in the biography of Dawan. Poor source: looking for the source water of the Yellow River. Poverty: to the end. River: refers to the Yellow River. Source: origin, origin. The river of "drinking with cows" refers to the Milky Way.

② Machine stone: namely machine stone, which is used to support the loom. Yi, with "branch". Machine: refers to the loom.

(3) Dong Fangshuo: Man Qian, the minister of the DPRK when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was circulated in Hanshu. According to the Hanwu Story, he was originally a slave of the Queen Mother of the West, but he was banished to the world for stealing a flat peach. In Liu Xiang's Biography of Immortals, he called it the year-old star descending to the earth, so he knew the machine stone.

Finally, I would like to add a few words: It is because of the legend that Zhang Qian went upstream to find the source of the Yellow River that he found the Milky Way in the sky. Later generations believe that the source of the surging water of the Yellow River is the Milky Way in the sky, which is the basis of Li Bai's poem How the Yellow River Water Moves Out of Heaven. From then on, this allusion had a great influence on the later literary world, and it often appeared in poems of past dynasties!
