There is a perforation in the middle of the lower part, and the sun and the moon are engraved on the left and right; There are dogs in Japan and China, and toads in the middle of the month.

Beiyang text 24 lines 45 words *** 927 words; Xian Daoqing wrote an article. There are three columns of inscriptions on the tablet, with 15 above, 17 in the middle and 16 below. On the left side of the Yang Monument, Ruan Yuan, Qiu Junen, three postscripts and the words "Daoguang built a pavilion in seven years" are engraved with 1 line. The inscription is a regular script, but it retains the style of official script, which is highly praised by inscriptions and calligraphers.

The inscription traces the history of the Huan family and records the story of Yan Longyan. It provides valuable information for future generations to study the Huan family and Yunnan history in the Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. The inscription says: cuan clan's ancestor was Zhuan Xu at the earliest, Ying Chu in the Warring States Period, Ban Gu in the Han Dynasty, and "enfeoffment in Cuan" at the end of the Han Dynasty, named after his surname. Although it is difficult to verify whether their ancestors were Zhuan Xu, Yingchu or Bangu, it is more obvious that cuan clan was a Han Chinese living in the south of the Central Plains.
