Classical Chinese on the Silk Road

1. For the record of the Silk Road in history books, the classical Chinese version is 1403-1424. During the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, there were two great feats on China's Silk Road: First, Zheng He made seven voyages to the Western Ocean and created the "Maritime Silk Road", which made him famous in history; The other is that he also lost his trip to the North Sea and found a "Silk Road in Northeast Asia", but it was submerged in literature.

In the history of China, the Silk Road in Northeast Asia experienced six historical periods: Han, Wei, Tang, Song, Jin and Yuan.

The entry of China silk into Northeast Asia can be traced back to the Han and Wei Dynasties in the history of China (202 BC-265 AD). Reflection? Wei Zhi? Fu Yu Zhuan says: "In China, clothes are still white, white cloth is big, and robes and pants are added. If you go abroad, you will still be embroidered, embroidered, embroidered, and embarrassed. " Historians have recognized the existence of commercial trade between Fuxi and the Central Plains. In particular, a large number of Han Dynasty five-baht coins and fragments of Han Dynasty white bronze mirrors unearthed between Longtan Mountain and Dongtuan Mountain, as well as pottery pieces with the pattern of Wangmang Huoquan (Li Wenxin: historical relics near Jilin City, published in History and Archaeology No. 1, 1946).) is the best proof. Unfortunately, this Silk Road is not recorded in the history books. Later, due to the "vassal attachment" relationship with the Han Dynasty and the Central Plains Dynasty, Koguryo not only obtained China silk through trade, but also obtained China silk through tribute, gift and plunder. According to Zi Jian, Bai Yan was captured when he fell into the city, and Emperor Taizong took pity on him. "Give five silks to create a spiritual landscape for the long river of history and return it to Pyongyang." "More than 80 gifts are poor." "Once"? Koguryo biography vividly records Koguryo nobles' love for silk. "Its guild and costumes are gorgeous."

The tribute road in Bohai Sea was the first time on the Silk Road in Northeast Asia (698-925 AD).

Weihan Huang's Bo Guohai Xia Ji? Tribute to China: "The Bohai Sea is 2,000 miles away from Tang Yingfu in the east and 8,000 miles away from Huhanfu in the capital to Chang 'an in the west. Far-reaching envoys such as China are known as paying tribute, giving thanks, praying for blessings, congratulating others and entering the Dragon Boat Festival. Justice: land travel, crossing Liao into Youzhou; Water line, cross the sea into Qingzhou. "The Tang Dynasty also attached great importance to the diligent service of the Bohai Sea, and set up reception officers for the envoys of Northeast Asian countries such as the Bohai Sea. In the twenty-eighth year of Kaiyuan, in the early years of Dali, lujun was appointed as the governor of Bendefu, Qing Zi was appointed as the governor in charge of Silla and Bohai, and Mu Zong was appointed as the official post, adding Lupin to be in charge of Silla and Bohai.

Where there is a tribute, there is a reward. Chinese emperors in past dynasties basically adopted the policy of rewarding vassal envoys who came to Korea from all directions more than paying tribute. The Tang dynasty not only gave the envoys of Bohai the favor of dressing according to grades, but also awarded them official positions. The next chapter of Bohai Kingdom? "Gonghua" contains: "Those who give goldfish bags will give more than two products; Purple robe and gold belt, more than three products are also served; Wearing a robe is a silver belt, which can be worn under five items. "So, these Bohai people, wearing official uniforms made of silk, happily returned to their hometown and inadvertently set foot on a Silk Road. Of course, they not only wear silk, but also carry a lot of silk, brocade, silk, brocade, silk, embroidered silk, silk cloth and so on. "A Record of the Bohai Sea" contains: Sixteen years of Gao Wang (the first year of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty) "In December, I sent Tang to Chang 'an, invited him to enter the city for trade, and went to the temple to worship, and Xuanzong agreed. "What is a market transaction? There is no specific explanation. However, according to the literature at that time, there were good horses, pearls and cooked copper. In the Bohai Sea, all kinds of silk were the main commodities in the Tang Dynasty. Volume 99 Ministry of Foreign Affairs: On October 6th, the first year of Jianzhong, brocade (silk, woolen goods), silk, embroidery, silk cloth, oxtail, pearls, silver, copper, iron, handmaiden, etc. Trading with all Tibetans is not allowed.

In Song Dynasty, a large number of silks flooded into Liaoning for free, which greatly changed the folk customs of Qidan people. Liao history? The records in Yi Wei Zheng Er reflect the dependence of the Qidan nobles on silk at that time.

In addition to enjoying the silk of the Song Dynasty, the Liao Dynasty also showed signs of giving it to civilians, governors and tribes. Liao history? Daozong five years: three years in Daan, five children in summer and April, giving silks to the poor in Beijing. "Shen Bing, for the poor in Gu Wu." In February of the seventh year of Da 'an, "Ren Yin ordered the poor people in Weizhou to plow cattle and cloth." Liao history? According to Book of Rites IV, when the North Korean ambassador came to see the Liao master, he could get three opportunities to get silk clothes after presenting gifts: declaring clothes, giving clothes and giving clothes back. Xixia envoys also have the treatment of "giving clothes". Are there any envoys from other countries and tribes? I don't know. It can be seen that the popularization of silk is an indisputable historical fact in Liao country.

"Golden history? "Food Wu Zhi" contains: "Four years, playing for Shangshu Province, resuming the venues of Si, Shou, Cai, Tang, Deng, Ying, Fengxiang, Qin, Gong and Tao."

2. The Silk Road The original Silk Road A simple and elegant giant stone carving of the "Silk Road" stands outside Yuxiangmen in Xi City. Camels with colored silk humps and western businessmen with high noses and concave eyes are full of life. Businessmen opened their eyes in this oriental metropolis and returned home with a full load. Looking at this group of carvings, it seems that they have seen endless business trips on the Silk Road. I seem to hear long camels wandering in the desert * * * ... It's a refreshing morning in 165438 BC. In the northern part of the Iranian plateau, a uniformed general is waiting at the border of interested countries. The general is riding a big horse with countless horses behind him. This mighty army, under the orders of King Xi, is welcoming friendly envoys from afar. The east is coming! "The soldiers of Rest Country cheered." Welcome to line up! "The general gave the order. The cavalry quickly divided into two teams, one on the left and the other on the right, and lined up to welcome them. The band played military music and the crowd was jubilant. The angel of China got off the camel he was riding, holding the scepter in his right hand and striding forward with a big smile on his face. The general turned over and dismounted, and stood at attention and shouted, "This general was ordered to lead the officers and men to meet the envoy of Dahan!" China's emissary waved his fist and bowed in return: "The old general welcomes you from afar. I am the special envoy of Prince Zhang Qian of Wang Bo. On behalf of Emperor Dahan, I would like to pay tribute to His Majesty the King of the country of peace! " The general repaid him. The ambassador to China pointed to the camel team behind him and said, "This is a little gift from Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty to His Majesty the King of Xi 'an. "I saw two big bags on each camel's back. Open the bag, all kinds of silks and satins are colorful. The generals of interested countries nodded happily and said, "The long-awaited ambassador of great importance has finally arrived! On behalf of His Majesty the King of the country of interest, I would like to present a gift to the envoy of the Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty. " With a wave of his hand, four soldiers brought two big gift boxes. When he opened it, he found many very big eggs in it, each weighing a pound. This is an ostrich egg that was not available in China at that time. The angel of China was about to thank him. The general waved his hand again and walked towards the two men. Turned out to be a magician. The first man pulled out a dagger and inserted it into his mouth. The dagger came out of his mouth again. The second one opened his mouth and blew out the flame after the flame. The magician's wonderful performance shocked all the people present. The general said with a smile, "Today is a day worth celebrating, and they are specially invited to join in the fun." The messenger from China thanked him and said happily, "Unexpectedly, a road connects us thousands of miles away. This is really a great road! "This is just a vivid scene of communication between the East and the West after Zhang Qian's mission to the Western Regions. Prior to this, Zhang Qian experienced difficulties and obstacles in BC 138. In BC 1 19, he sent to the western regions for the second time, which strengthened the friendly exchanges between the Han Dynasty and other countries in the western regions. Since then, teams of camel caravans have marched on this long trade avenue, and they have climbed mountains and mountains. China's sericulture, silk reeling, iron smelting, paper making, well drilling, irrigation and other technologies were brought to Central Asia, West Asia and Europe, grapes, walnuts, pomegranates, broad beans, cucumbers, sesame seeds, figs and other foods were brought to China, and animals such as lions, rhinoceroses and good horses were also introduced to China.

Camels with gorgeous silk and businessmen in the western regions with high noses and concave eyes are full of vitality and lifelike. Businessmen opened their eyes in this oriental metropolis and returned to their hometown with full loads of goods.

Looking at this group of sculptures, I seem to see the scene of endless business trips on the Silk Road, as if I heard the * * * of long camels wandering in the desert ... It was a refreshing morning in 1 15 BC. In the northern part of the Iranian plateau, a uniformed general is waiting at the border of interested countries.

The general is riding a big horse with countless horses behind him. This mighty army, ordered by the king of the country of interest, is waiting for a friendly envoy from afar.

There was a faint camel * * * in the east, and the soldiers followed * * *, and a camel team appeared in the distance, with bright flags flying in front. "come on! Coming! " Soldiers from other countries cheered.

"Welcome to the queue!" The general gave the order. The cavalry quickly divided into two teams, one on the left and the other on the right, in a welcome position.

The band played military music and the crowd was jubilant. The messenger of China stepped down from the camel, holding the scepter in his right hand and striding forward with a big smile on his face.

The general turned over and dismounted, and stood at attention and shouted, "This general was ordered to lead the officers and men to meet the envoys of the Great Han Dynasty!" China's emissary, fist in hand, bowed in return and said, "General, please welcome me from afar. I am the special envoy of Prince Zhang Qian of Wang Bo. On behalf of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, I would like to pay tribute to His Majesty the King of the Rest Country! " The general thanked him.

China's envoy pointed to the camel team behind him and said, "This is a little gift from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to His Majesty the King of." I see two big bags on each camel's back.

Open the baggage, all kinds of silks and satins, colorful. General Xi 'an nodded happily and said, "The long-awaited messenger of the great man has finally arrived! On behalf of His Majesty the King of the Rest Country, I would like to present a gift to the envoy of Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty. "

This is an ostrich egg that was not available in China at that time. China's emissary was about to thank him, but the general made another move and took two people, who turned out to be magicians.

The first one pulled out a dagger, put it in his mouth and swallowed it immediately. I saw him patting his stomach and the dagger spit out from his mouth.

The second one opened his mouth and blew out the flame after the flame. The magician's wonderful performance shocked everyone present.

The general smiled and said, "Today is a day worthy of celebration, and they are specially invited to entertain." China's envoy thanked him and said happily, "I didn't expect a road to connect us thousands of miles apart. This is really a great road! " This is just a vivid scene of communication between the East and the West after Zhang Qian's mission to the Western Regions.

Prior to this, Zhang Qian had gone through difficulties and obstacles in 138 BC. In BC 1 19, he sent to the western regions for the second time, which strengthened the friendly exchanges between the Han Dynasty and other countries in the western regions.

Since then, teams of camel caravans have been marching on this long commercial avenue. They crossed the mountains and brought China's techniques of sericulture, reeling, iron smelting, paper making, sinking and irrigation to Central Asia, West Asia and Europe, and brought grapes, walnuts, pomegranates, broad beans, cucumbers, sesame seeds, figs and other foods there to China, as well as lions, rhinoceroses and good horses. Music, dance, painting and sculpture in our country have become more colorful and beautiful because they have absorbed the advantages of foreign cultures.

Today, more than 2000 years later, whenever people stare at the giant stone carvings on the Silk Road, they will arouse reverie about the past commercial and cultural prosperity.

6. An ancient poem about the Silk Road, Chili.

(Northern Dynasty Yuefu)

Chilechuan under the Yinshan Mountain, [1]

The sky is like the sky, and the cage covers four fields. [2]

The sky is gray and wild.

See cattle and sheep when the wind blows. [4]

Translation:

The vast Chilechuan is at the foot of Yinshan Mountain.

The sky is like a huge tent, covering the whole of Yuan Ye.

The sky is vast and empty, and the grassland is endless.

The breeze blew down the grass, revealing the cattle and sheep hidden in the grass.

Analysis:

This is a folk song sung by Chileans, translated from Xianbei into Chinese. It praises the scenery of grassland and the life of nomadic people.

The first two sentences "Chilechuan, under the Yinshan Mountain" show that Chilechuan is located at the foot of the towering Yinshan Mountain, which sets off the grassland background very majestic. Then there are two sentences: "The sky is like a dome, and the cage covers four fields". Zile people use the "dome" in their own lives as a metaphor, saying that the sky is like a felt dome tent, covering all directions of the grassland, so as to describe the magnificent scene of the distant future and the connection between the wild and the wild. This kind of sight can only be seen on the grassland or at sea. The last three sentences, "The sky is grey, the wild land is boundless, the wind and grass are low, and the cattle and sheep are low", are a magnificent and vibrant panorama of the grassland. "When the wind blows, you can see cattle and sheep." A gust of wind bent the grass, revealing flocks of cattle and sheep. What a vivid description of the rich water plants and fat cattle and sheep here. There are only twenty words in the whole poem, which shows a magnificent picture of the life of ancient herders in China.

This poem has a clear and generous style unique to the folk songs of the Northern Dynasties, with an open realm, a majestic tone, clear language and strong artistic generalization. Huang Tingjian, a poet in the Song Dynasty, said that the author of this folk song "hastily used strange words to cover up the truth" (The Inscription of the Valley, Volume 7). Because the author is very familiar with the life of grassland herders, he can grasp the characteristics at once without hard engraving, and the artistic effect is very good.

7. Ancient poems about the Silk Road: 1, Chile Song and Hulu Jin and Northern Dynasties (439-534), Chile Biography, Yinshan Xia.

The sky is like the sky, and the cage covers four fields. The sky is gray, the wilderness is vast, and the wind and grass are low. 2. Farewell to the viceroy, and go out to Bo, separated by the wall of Sanqin and the fog of five rivers.

We said goodbye sadly, and our two officials went in opposite directions. After all, the world is just a small place.

Why are you wandering at the fork in the road? The child is holding a towel. 3. Liangzhou Ci The Yellow River in Wang Zhihuan is far away from the white clouds, and the Wan Ren Mountain is isolated.

Why use the elegy of willow to complain about the delay of spring, old Yumenguan, a spring breeze is not blowing! 4, join the army seven (fourth) Wang Changling Qinghai Changyun dark snow mountain, lonely city overlooking Yumenguan.

Yellow sand wears golden armor in hundreds of battles, but the loulan is not returned. 5. Seven military songs (the fifth song) were faint in the dusty desert, and the red flag was half rolled out of Yuanmen.

The former army fought the Taohe River at night, but reported that they were caught alive and spit out the ancient muddy. 6. Walking out of the Fortress (1) When Wang Changling was in the Qin Dynasty, the moon and the Han customs, the Long March people did not return.

If Wei Qing, who attacked Longcheng, and Li Guang, the flying general, were alive today, the Huns would not be allowed to go south to spend their horses in Yinshan. 7. Watching Wang Weifeng bow, the general hunts Weicheng.

The grass is yellow in autumn, and the eagle eye is sharper; When the ice and snow melt, the horseshoe is extraordinarily brisk. It has passed Xinfeng City in a blink of an eye and soon returned to sunny Liu Ying.

Looking back at the eagle wilderness, thousands of twilight clouds spread to the horizon.

8. Silk Road Poetry 1, two Liangzhou Poems.

Tang Dynasty: Wang Zhihuan

The Yellow River is getting farther and farther away, because it flows in the middle of the Yellow River, and Yumenguan is located on a lonely mountain.

Why use the elegy of willow to complain about the delay of spring, old Yumenguan, a spring breeze is not blowing!

Khan looked at the clouds in the north and killed the altar of Madden several times.

The son of the Han family is now in SHEN WOO, and he refuses to go home with his relatives.

Translation:

The Yellow River seems to rush out from the white clouds, and Yumenguan is hanging alone in the mountains. Why do you want to use Qiangdi to play sad willow songs to complain that spring has not come? It turns out that the spring breeze around Yumenguan can't blow!

Turkic leaders came to the Central Plains to look for relatives, looking north at Fuyundui shrine, recalling that they had killed horses here many times in the past, and then attacked the Tang Dynasty, which was quite ambitious. But now SHEN WOO, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, is dignified and refuses to live in peace with the Turks, so he has to return in vain.

2. "Seven Military Songs, Part IV"

Tang Dynasty: Wang Changling

There is a dark snow-capped mountain in Qinghai, with long white clouds and a lonely city looking at Yumenguan.

Yellow sand wears golden armor in hundreds of battles, but the loulan is not returned.

Translation:

Qinghai Lake is covered with dark clouds and continuous snow-capped mountains. Yumen, the ancient city of frontier fortress, is a grand pass, thousands of miles away, facing each other from afar. The soldiers on the border have been through many battles, their armor is worn out and their ambitions are immortal. They will never return to their hometown before defeating the invading enemy.

3. The first part "two dikes"

Tang Dynasty: Wang Changling

It is still the moon and border pass in Qin and Han dynasties, and the enemy has fought a protracted war.

If Wei Qing, who attacked Longcheng, and Li Guang, the flying general, were alive today, the Huns would not be allowed to go south to spend their horses in Yinshan.

Translation:

Or the bright moon border during the Qin and Han Dynasties, how many soldiers Wan Li went to war and did not return.

If Li Guang, the flying general, is still alive, he will not let the Xiongnu army cross the Yinshan Mountain.

4. "Hunting"

Tang Dynasty: Wang Wei

In the wind, the horn sounded and the general was hunting outside the borehole.

The grass is yellow in autumn, and the eagle eye is sharper; When the ice and snow melt, the horseshoe is extraordinarily brisk.

It has passed Xinfeng City in a blink of an eye and soon returned to sunny Liu Ying.

Looking back at the eagle wilderness, thousands of twilight clouds spread to the horizon.

Translation:

The wind roared and the taut bowstring trembled violently. I saw the general hunting outside the Acropolis. Autumn grass is yellow, and the eagle eye is sharper; The snow melts, and the galloping hooves are more like the wind chasing leaves.

In a blink of an eye, I passed Xinfengcheng and soon rode back to Xiliu Camp. Looking back at the place where we just galloped, the clouds in the evening have become one with the earth.

The rain in the early morning moistened the dust of the land, the inn of the inn, the branches and leaves of the inn, and a new leaf

Sincerely advise friends to drink a glass of wine, and it is difficult to meet their loved ones when they go out to Yang Guan in the west.

Translation:

A spring rain in the morning of the Acropolis moistened the faint dust, and the willow branches and leaves around the guest house were fresh and tender. An old friend invites you for another drink. It's hard to see old relatives when you leave Yangguan for the west.
