Is there Shwenadaw in history? "Dance Legend" is being broadcasted recently. In the play, the King of Qi sent Shu Nantuo to lead the music band of Qi, and left the northern wooden city of Wang's capital for Datang Bule. Shwenadaw did exist in history, and there are few records about him. Before watching the TV series, let's get to know the character through his dribs and drabs. & gt According to the research of Burmese archaeologists, the history of the kingdom of Sri Lanka can be roughly divided into two periods: the early period (1-5th century), with Vishnu City (about 20km west of Dongdunzhi Town, Magway County, Myanmar) as the center, which is called Vishnu Period; In the later period (6th-9th century AD), the capital of Qi was Tanluo City (8km southeast of North Mu), which was called Tanluo Period. As an intermediary or transition between the two periods, it is the Khan forest period (Lezhen District, Ruibo County Committee, present province). & gt During the Fang Chuan period, Sri Lanka had more extensive and direct contacts and exchanges with Nanzhao and Tang Dynasty. 80 1 year (17th year of Tang Zhenyuan), Huan Wang Yongqiang was recommended by Xunzi, the king of Nanzhao, and sent his son to lead a band and dancers to present national music to Chengdu. The following year, I came to Xi 'an, where I played 12 songs with 35 musicians, most of which involved the interpretation of Confucian classics. & gt When they play music, they are equipped with conch shells and beautifully carved bronze drums, which are very similar to Fu's drums in the Tang Dynasty. Tang Dezong named his king Taichangqing and Taiservant Qing, and Bai Juyi, a poet in China, specially created songs and dances for this purpose. The Book of the New Tang Dynasty recorded his art of singing and dancing in detail. & gt According to "Nan Man Xia in the New Tang Dynasty", during the Zhenyuan period in Tang Dezong, Wang Yongqiang also sent his younger brother Xili to move to Shwenadaw, the capital city, to present national music and Wei Gaofusheng. Because of its abnormal dance and musical instruments, it is a picture for reference. Regarding the specific time of offering music to Tang, the article (100) said: "In the first month of spring in the eighteenth year of Zhenyuan (802), Nanzhao envoy went to North Korea, and the King of Jin sent his brother Xili to move to North Korea." It seems that in the second half of the seventeenth year of Zhenyuan (80 1), the ambassador of our country entered the country. Therefore, Bai Juyi's "Lu Guole" set the time for offering music to Lu in the seventeenth year of Zhenyuan. & gt Wei Gao, then the envoy of Jiannan Xichuan, sorted out and recorded the music of this country, feeling fresh and unfamiliar with the music, dance and musical instruments of this country, and ordered painters to draw the dances and musical instruments of this country and present them to the court. The purpose of his doing this should be to let the court have a preliminary understanding of the music of this country and avoid sudden performance in the later period. & gt After a short stay in Chengdu, Guo Si Orchestra arrived in Chang 'an, Tang Dou at the beginning of the first month in the 18th year of Zhenyuan (February, 802). The orchestra performed in the court of the Tang Dynasty and was welcomed by Tang Dezong and civil and military officials. Later, Dezong "granted Shwenadaw Taifuqing and sent it back". In 802, Wang Yongqiang sent Prince Shu Nantuo to lead a friendly delegation including 35 musicians to visit China and performed in Chang 'an Palace, which was warmly welcomed. & gt By offering music, Guo Si got the opportunity to communicate directly with the Tang Dynasty, bypassing Nanzhao, and then, in the name of offering music, moved the Tang Dynasty to exert pressure on Nanzhao, thus getting rid of Nanzhao's control. At that time, the political intention of the country was basically realized, and Nanzhao withdrew its troops stationed in China at the request of the Tang Dynasty's joint army to fight against Tubo. & gt This alleviated the military threat of Nanzhao to the country to a certain extent and improved the political situation of the country. There is no doubt that this diplomatic strategy is successful. In the following period, Sri Lanka improved the political situation and maintained a relatively friendly relationship with Nanzhao. After Si Guo presented music, fierce countries such as Chen Mi and Kunlun, which were closely related to Si Guo, also began to contact with Tang Dynasty with Si Guo's mission to Tang Dynasty. & gt
