Chapter 385 The homeland of Nanzhao is no longer here, but the playing of sheng and tapping songs is passed down
The tourists were also very moved.
"Later on, after years of fighting, the country was small and the people were few. The widow could no longer just shed tears, and the widow also had to go to the battlefield. It was also on the way to the battle that he attacked Shu and captured Xichang County Magistrate Zheng Hui.
How about being a powerful intellectual? He was obviously a prisoner, but Ge Luofeng appreciated Zheng Hui's knowledge, and the county magistrate of the Tang Dynasty suddenly became the Nanzhao Imperial Preceptor.
He could scold and beat the Nanzhao royal family, including Fengjiayi and Yimouxun. Therefore, the Nanzhao royal family was very afraid of this national preceptor. Later, when the Nanzhao royal family declined, Zheng Hui's descendants rebelled and killed eight members of the Nanzhao royal family.
Hundreds of people!"
"ah!"
Xiao Bi also pouted and nodded, "So our ancestors said that the Han people are too cunning and have been hiding in the mountains."
"Nanzhao was destroyed." He Huan said, "If Ge Luofeng knew what happened next, alas!"
Shaking his head, he added: "Geluofeng did not expect that Zheng Hui's descendants would destroy Nanzhao, but Zheng Hui has been trying to win over Nanzhao and the Tang Dynasty. This should be the reason why he makes Geluofengle happy. I hope that in the future
Let’s return to Tang Dynasty again.
Therefore, Ge Luofeng deserves to be praised by the Dehua inscription: My king's energy is neutralized, and his virtue is nurtured. His talents are outstanding, and he is a world-famous hero. His high regard will lead to excellence, and his planning will lead to victory thousands of miles away.
He knew that he was between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty, and his fate was extremely difficult. Fighting was not a good thing, so Nanzhao was so sincere about the Dehua Monument. As for the repeated attempts, he had to fight! He ordered future generations to refer to the Tang envoys on the monument and restore the old friendship."
Everyone nodded.
"Rebellion against the Tang Dynasty was inevitable, and every word is full of wind and frost." He Huan sighed, "The Dehua stele was erected to state the reasons, the Tianbao Warrior Tomb and the General Li Temple were built, and sacrifices were made year after year. These laid the foundation for the later restoration of the old relationship with the Tang Dynasty.
After Geluofeng's death, Fengjiayi died young, and Yimouxun succeeded to the throne. He inherited his grandfather's last wish and sent three envoys to Chengdu to plead for reconciliation. The second year after the Tianbao War in the Tang Dynasty was the Anshi Rebellion, which was a series of military disasters.
The Tang Dynasty finally realized that it was a wrong decision to attack Nanzhao in the first place, and had no energy to attack Nanzhao again. It also admitted that it was the Tang Dynasty's unwise employment and unfair treatment that led to Nanzhao's rebellion.
Therefore, Tang De's sect sent envoys to Yunzhou to confer Yimouxun as the king of Nanzhao. Forty years after the Tianbao War, Nanzhao and Tang Dynasty Cangshan made an alliance and restored their old friendship."
"Ah!" Everyone nodded, liking this happy ending.
"But in this war, both sides will lose after all!" He Huan said, "And Nanzhao and Tang Dynasty are like brothers. After fighting for so many years, they are no longer as good as before when they come together again."
Subsequently, the Central Plains entered the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Nanzhao was also seized by the Zheng family, the royal family was slaughtered, and all the heroes came together."
He Huan looked at Xiao Bi, "Now probably only Bijia Village still retains the legacy of Nanzhao."
Everyone also looked at Xiao Bi, wondering what she was feeling.
"Can we go and see Xiao Bi's house?" a tourist said.
He Huan said: "Do you think the deep mountains are fake? It's still a dirt road. Let's walk for a day and see if we can reach it."
Xiao Bi nodded, "Yes. Our place is very closed. The old people say that the people outside are very bad, and they never leave the mountains. Young people of our generation are starting to come out."
Everyone nodded to show understanding.
I paid homage to the thirteenth generation of Nanzhao kings, and then went to pay homage to the third princess.
"The Third Princess is not only worshiped by the Yi people, but is also the owner of the Yi people. At the same time, she is also the owner of the Bai people. Therefore, there are Three Princess Temples in Weishan and Dali.
Every year on the 13th day of the second lunar month, Dali Bai people come to Weishan in droves to take the third princess back to her natal home in Dali for the festival. This tradition continues to this day."
"Yes." Xiao Bi nodded, "The third princess and King Nanzhao are the common ancestors of our Yi and Bai people."
Xiao Bi offered incense to the three princesses and led them out, passing by a mural.
"Panasonic Tage Song Picture." He Huan stopped, "This is a depiction of the ancient Yi people's Tage Song scene. It is also the current Tage and Dance.
According to ancient anecdotes from the Central Plains, ethnic minorities in southwest China have liked to play the gourd sheng, play strings, have banquets, sacrifices, fall in love, and sing and dance since ancient times."
"Ah!" the tourists exclaimed, "it feels just like what we experienced yesterday!"
"That's right! For thousands of years, one day in the mountains, the old country of Nanzhao is no longer here, but the music of playing the sheng and stepping has been passed down."
"Yeah." Xiao Bi nodded, "We always get together to play songs like this on all festivals. We also have singing parties during the Ancestor Worship Festival."
“I really want to come!” the tourists said yearningly.
He Huan looked at them and took them away from Weibaoshan, "Go to Weishan Ancient City for dinner."
"Great!"
Looking at these tourists who could divert their attention by eating, He Huan asked Xiao Bi to take them into Weishan Ancient City.
"Nowadays, many people promote the ancient city of Weishan as the ancient capital of Nanzhao, but this is actually not accurate."
Xiao Bi nodded.
"After the fall of Nanzhao, the heroes were divided. Finally, the Duan family unified all the tribes and entered the era of the Dali Kingdom. The Duan family appears many times in the Dehua stele of Nanzhao, from officials to prime ministers and generals, so the Duan family is an aristocratic family of Nanzhao."
The tourists nodded and realized that the Duan family and Nanzhao still had this connection.
"The Central Plains also entered the Song Dynasty. The Southern Barbarians were good at fighting, and the poisonous fog everywhere has become a legend in the Central Plains. So Song Taizu unified Shu, but used the Dadu River as the boundary, saying that the rest is not mine!
This is the jade ax wielded by the Song Dynasty! It marked the boundary between the Song Dynasty and Yunzhou. The king of Dali submitted several petitions to seek surrender, but the Song Dynasty never enshrined him.
Song Taizu had no choice, because the Tang Dynasty, such a large empire, was dragged down by a small border country.
In fact, it is really not small. In terms of territory, in the late Tang Dynasty, Tubo, Nanzhao and the Tang Empire formed a three-legged power. Nanzhao's territory also reached as far as Southeast Asia."
The tourists nodded, "It turns out that Dali is not just that little bit of Dali!"
"But it was so great that the success was unsuccessful, and it was difficult to stay calm. There were still strong enemies in the north. Song Taizu was afraid of another disaster in the southwest, but he did not realize the important position of the southwest.
The southwest and the Central Plains are closely interdependent. Kublai Khan's several attacks on the Central Plains were blocked, and finally he crossed the Jinsha River, climbed over the Cangshan Mountains, and destroyed Dali, thus starting the trend of the Central Plains being pinched between the north and the south.
After Dali was captured, he was still the general manager of Dali, and the Duan family also built an earthen city in Weishan. This was the prototype of the ancient city of Weishan.
Later, the emperor changed again and arrived in the Ming Dynasty. Taizu of the Ming Dynasty learned from the experiences and lessons of the Han, Tang, Song and Yuan Dynasties and realized that Yunzhou must be included in the territory.
So Mu Ying and Fu Youde were sent to lead an army to conquer Yunzhou and fight all the way to Menghua City. Of course the Duan family would not surrender. The Song Dynasty did not care about me, but I was in charge of the Yuan Dynasty. Why should I listen to you?
What are the consequences of not surrendering? There is a saying that death is not true until it is forgotten. Although Dali existed in the Song Dynasty and was destroyed in the Yuan Dynasty, it died in the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Yuanzhang set fire to it, not burning people but books. From Nanzhao to Dali, a total of six hundred years of history were wiped out."
"ah!"
"Many Bai people say that they have no writing or even language. Although during the Nanzhao Kingdom, King Nanzhao often sent people to study in Chengdu, the national teacher was also from the Tang Dynasty, and the royal family all learned Chinese, so Fengjiayi could write poems, and he could write them well.
very nice.
At that time, Sinicization was already very deep. They could speak Chinese and write Chinese characters. But the official was still creating characters. It was different from the Yi script.
Until modern times, people have discovered classics from the Nanzhao period in the Three Pagodas, but there are very few texts left behind, and no one knows the texts."
"Sigh." He Huan sighed, "In short, this also plunges Yunzhou's six hundred years of history into fog."
Compared to the bustle of Dali, Weishan is very quiet, with only a few tourists slowly exploring this ancient city.
Seeing a group of them, the eye-catching white dragon flag and the bright-colored Yi girls, they all ran over to rub against the tour guide.
He Huan raised his voice: "In the Ming Dynasty, Tuliu rule was still implemented. The leader of the Yi people in Menghua surrendered and was named the hereditary Tuzhi of Menghua. Like Lijiang Mu Tusi, he was a wise man who judged the situation.
The Ming army did not leave even after winning the battle, so they settled down. The army turned into civilians, built fields and built the city, and built the current masonry city on the basis of the original earth city. They built Confucius temples, built academies, and conducted imperial examinations. This is what the Ming Dynasty did in the Ming Dynasty.
Yunzhou is a university town that promotes Confucianism and Central Plains culture."
The tourists who were following the guide took photos and videos with their mobile phones.
"The education was also very good. Hundreds of Jinshi and Juren were produced in this place, which shocked the court and was named a famous country in the Qing Dynasty.
Therefore, most of the residents in the Weishan Ancient City area today are descendants of immigrants from the Ming Dynasty. The moat, suspension bridge, and Confucian temple were all built in the Central Plains style. The entire Weishan Ancient City was entirely the will of Zhu Yuanzhang.
It is also because this place is the place where the king of Yunzhou rose, and I am afraid that people will miss the hometown of Nanzhao, so I chose this place to reflect the will of the emperor and let the local people see the determination of the ruler."
The new tourists were puzzled by what they heard and tried to listen with open ears.
"In fact, the ethnic minorities in Yunzhou have long been integrated. Baiman and Wuman are both called Central Plains. Bai and Yi are also modern names. The history of Yunzhou is very vague. But Nanzhao Kingdom is indeed closely related to Ailao Kingdom.
wisps of contact.
To this day, there is still debate over whether the Nanzhao Kingdom was founded by the Yi, the Bai, or the Dai people. Countries in Southeast Asia have also come to recognize their ancestors.
The Central Plains Dynasty regarded the Central Plains land as orthodox, and the records of Yunzhou were mostly anecdotes and a few words.
The reason why the Yi people are now the sixth largest ethnic minority and are distributed throughout Yunzhou is that many people who cannot tell who their ancestors are are classified as the Yi people."
The tourists were speechless.
Xiao Bi nodded, "Well, many Yi people have different languages. They still call themselves according to their branches. I only know that the Holy Mother of our Mengshe people is from Shahu, an Ailao people, who moved from Baoshan to Weishan."
Everyone looked at her with interest, and then at Xiao Bailong. Didn't Xiao Bailong say this in the car that the ancestors of Nanzhao were the Ailao royal family?
He Huan said: "If it is true that Meng Shezhao was the Ailao royal family, then Ailao Kingdom developed two ancient civilizations in the history of Yunzhou, Jinglong Jindian Kingdom and Nanzhao Dali. In other words, although Ailao Kingdom
It disappeared in the long river of history, but it continues in another way."
Being able to touch ancestors from thousands of years ago can't help but feel a vague yearning.
Xiao Bi was silently lost in thought.
Tourists who follow the guide are even more confused. What is Xiao Bailong talking about?
It was not easy to pester them, because Xiao Bi had already led them into a restaurant.
After the meal, He Huan paid, and the tourists said goodbye to Xiao Bi and got on the bus. Xiao Bi looked at He Huan and said, "Come to our ancestor worship festival, and I will take you to our village."
"Okay." He Huan nodded with a smile, and also wanted to visit the last Nanzhao tribe.
The tourist bus left Weishan and drove directly to Baoshan.
"Baoshan, the center of Ailao Kingdom, the main battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War in Western Yunnan."
The tourists looked out the window excitedly, looking forward to the ancient mysterious country and the land of modern heroes. It felt like this time was not only a color-seeking trip, but also a journey through the ancient country.
