Third, what is the historical origin of the Yuping xiao flute

Yuping xiao flute is also known as "flat xiao yu flute", because the xiao flute on the more beautifully carved dragon and phoenix pattern, also known as "dragon xiao phoenix flute".

According to records, the Pingxiao was created by Zheng Weifan during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty (1573-1619), and the Jade Flute was created in the Qing Dynasty in the fifth year of the Yongzheng period (1727). Ping xiao jade flute is often used as a gift or collection, and Maotai wine, etc. together as "Guizhou three treasures".

Records about the Yuping xiao, first seen in the Qing dynasty Qianlong "Yuping County Records": "Ping xiao, the euphonious Zheng's got the different passages, the sound of the clear. Those who are good at sound are said to be not less wind sheng.

"On the origin of the jade xiao flute, in the Yuping Dong masses circulated these two words: "Xian to Yuping to stay in the ancient tune, guests from overseas to visit the knower". According to legend, 300 years ago, there is a self-proclaimed "Deer Skin Immortal" Taoist, traveled to Yuping, love this water show mountains and green, bamboo lush forests, and then stayed down, and a local surname Zheng Dong talented people into irreconcilable friendship.

The Taoists are good at music, and every time they have a feeling, they will be sending their thoughts to the silk and bamboo.

The first time I saw this movie, I was able to get a good sense of what it was like to be in the movie.

One day, he took a bamboo from the mountains and made it into a pipe and played it, which caused his friend's ****ing sound. Soon the Taoist had to travel far away from home, so he passed on the skill of making xiao to this friend surnamed Zheng.

From then on, the Zheng family started to make and sell their own xiao. Since then, Yuping has been producing xiao.

Yuping flute, folk anecdotes. However, according to the Zheng family, which has been in the business for a long time, and their peers in the xiao industry, the Zheng family uses the local water bamboo to make the flute, and does not wrap the silk, does not use lacquer, and only uses white wax to preserve the original color of the bamboo.

The style is novel and chic, the sound is far better than the bamboo flute produced in the north and south, so the hometown of Yuping's "Jade" for the name, called "Jade Flute". And according to his father's book "and the sound of the sound of Sheng" in the "sound map" theory, the flute will be paired with the flute, collectively referred to as "flat xiao jade flute".

The music-loving Zheng will make the skills of xiaojiao flute as a family heirloom, generations of its industry, so Zheng's xiaojiao flute in the Ming Wanli years has been famous, Ming and Qing dynasties, Yuping xiaojiao flute are the royal family point for tribute, served on the court. Qing Dynasty Xianfeng years, Zheng's heir was forced to sell the piper to make ends meet due to the family's poor situation, and thus began to specialize in flat piper, listed for sale.

After the product demand exceeded supply, began to break the direct line of discipline, to recruit students to pass on the art, to expand the scale of production. To the anti-Japanese war period, the production of Yuping xiao flute has a big development, only the city has more than thirty xiao flute stores, practitioners more than eighty people.

Ming and Qing dynasties, Yuping xiao flute is listed as tribute, by the royal family. In folklore, people tend to send its pure feelings and aspirations for beautiful things, soulmates, friends tend to give it to each other as treasures, and lovers, newlyweds, as a token of love and a symbol of a good marriage.

Yuping xiao flute carved on the dragon and phoenix pattern, it is said to be taken from the Xiao Shi get jade blowing xiao attract friends phoenix love myth. The Jade Screen flutes are mostly paired with male and female flutes, which makes them subtle and meaningful to play.

Male and female and blowing, just like lovers singing, fun, so there is a "god xiao Xian flute" of the beauty of the name.

What is the historical origin of the Yuping xiao flute

There is a legend that is more popular in Yuping.

From Shandong Province moved to Pingxi (now Yuping) to settle down the Zheng family, the number of "not its mountain people", once to Zhenyuan traveled to visit friends and relatives. One day, I met an old Taoist with hair and a boyish face, and I had a lot of respect for him, and I talked to him, and he made a good conversation, and then he became a good friend.

The old man claimed to have been well read since childhood, and because of the dust, he left the house in a bun and traveled around the world. Zheng has great respect for him and invites the old Taoist to visit his home in Pingxi.

The old road to see Zheng for people loyal and generous promised.

After the old man recovered, the two often out of the city tour. One day, the tour north of the city Yuping Peak, saw Han Xiangzi, Lv Dongbin, Zhang Guolao and other eight immortals from the eastern sky by auspicious clouds floating to, sitting on the Shilian peak playing and singing.

The two rushed to the Shilian Peak, only to see the County Immortals playing music, driving clouds and go. The two searched for the footprints of the Eight Immortals, picked up a sacred xiao, Han Xiangzi's, and waited until the shadow of the sun in the west, did not see the return of the immortal, so they had to take the sacred xiao home.

The next day, to the southwest of the city to visit the Flying Phoenix Mountain, see the green bamboo full of mountains, green and pleasant. The old man chose two phoenix-tailed water bamboo to bring back, made of a pair of flutes, male and female matching, the sound of the tone of the quiet.

The Taoists thanked the Zheng family for their hospitality and taught the Zheng family the art of making flutes and pipes. The Zheng family, who are very good at music, were delighted and regarded it as a family heirloom, so they passed it on from generation to generation and kept it.

The Taoist taught the Zheng family the art of making flutes and pipes, and then left the Zheng family to travel. The old Taoist traveled to the capital, and on a moonlit and windy night, he sat on the city tower and played the xiao that he had made in Pingxi.

The sound of blowing into the palace with the wind, the emperor is enjoying the moon in the Imperial Garden, was fluttering, such as silk, such as wisps of the sound of blowing intoxicated, it is "this song should only be on the sky, the world can get a few times heard." The emperor was busy calling the guards out of the palace to look for the piper, people have no trace, do not know where to go.

After inquiring about the blowjob is the junction of Guizhou and Chu Pingxi Wei Zheng family production, the emperor sent to Pingxi, Zheng family tribute every year xiao flute. The emperor sent a man to Pingxi to make the Zheng family pay tribute every year. Among the tribute flutes, the Pingxi flute made according to the style of the divine flute is the most precious one.

Later generations of xiao flute heirs honored the Eight Immortals and the Old Taoist as the Immortal Master. The flute is often inscribed with this hymn: "Immortals to the Jade Screen to leave the ancient tune, the guest from overseas to visit the soulmate."
