Let’s continue to add some knowledge about the guqin to everyone. Haha, brothers, the mistress needs your recommendation votes. Tonight, there are still 2 chapters in total.

———————————————————————

There are two types of guqin in the "Jingqin Picture" painted by Gu Kaizhi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (about 346-407 AD), and they are all full-box styles. Although the body of the guqin body is distinguished by the forehead, neck, and shoulders, the two guqin shapes in the picture are still generally the same as those of the Song and Han qin figurines. This style of guqin is also found in the "Four Elders of Shangshan" unearthed from the Northern Dynasties painted brick tomb in Deng County, Henan Province, which shows that the guqin was first seen in the Eastern Han Dynasty and has been retained in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and Southern and Northern Dynasties. In the murals and musical pictures of Li Shou's tomb in the early Tang Dynasty in Sanyuan, Shaanxi, there are guqins, and each picture of playing the piano is basically the same as that in the "Jingqin Picture". It can be seen that a traditional guqin style will last for a long time.

In the southern Qi Dynasty, Nanjing Xishanqiao and other places, Liang Da Tomb brick seal "Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest and Rong Qiqi" mural mountain piano has the characteristics of a full box and is presented in a new style, that is, the speaker has developed from the long strip of the inward curved ornament of the Eastern Jin Dynasty to a square head, wide shoulders, and tail shape. This type of speaker can further improve the sound effect of the piano.

The appearance of the Qin Hui was about a little later than the early Western Han Dynasty, that is, in the first half of the second century BC. The famous Fu "Qi Fa" by Mei Cheng (?-140 BC) in the Western Han Dynasty once mentioned the use of tung zither from the dragon gate, the strings of wild silkworm silk, and the "nine widows' eagle as a match". From the context, the eagle was originally the center of the target, which is equivalent to Hui. It is more clearly mentioned that Hui is the sentence "Hui is made from Zhongshan's jade" in the Jin Dynasty's Ji Kang (223-262 AD), but the number of Hui is unknown.
