Located in the mountains and mountains on the banks of the Qingshui River, Shanglin County, Guangxi, the "Six Heart Strong Manstes" (referred to as "Song of the Big House") and "Liaozhou Assassin's History Wei Jing Different Smart City Bei" (referred to as "Zhicheng Bei") were carved in In the first year of Emperor Gaozong Yongchun (682) and Wu Zetian's long live Tongtian (697), it was more than 1,300 years ago. It is the earliest Tang monument in Lingnan. Because the "Big House Song" and "Smart City Monument" are all cliffs and stone carvings between the walls of the mountains and rocks, and they are located in a place with deep partiality and poor transportation. People know. The earliest record of "Smart City Monument" is the "Public Digo Sheng" of the King's Elephant Southern Song Dynasty. ","

Jiang Tingyu, the former director of the Museum of the Museum of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, believes that in the Geographical Book of "The Ji Sheng", Zhicheng Cave and Zhicheng Monument. People with ancient monuments came to find, and they didn't know where it was. Some thought it was in Xiangzhou, and some even thought in Longzhou.

From Song to Qing, the "Smart City Monument" was mentioned in Jinshi books, mostly copied. The writer has not seen the physical or extension of the Tang monument. Until the Qing Dynasty, Li Yanzhang, the Zhifu Mansion of Si En, went deep into the forest and expanded the "Smart City Strategy" to fill the historical gap of "Smart City Stele" towards Wuduo.

Affected by it, from the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, the Jinshi family rushed to come to Tuo Tuo's monument. "Big House Song" and "Smart City Stele" are only 10 miles apart, so they leave the world in the world. Later, due to the frequent domestic war, "Song of the Big House" and "Smart City Monument" were silent in the mountains. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the archeological experts in Guangxi sent archaeological experts to visit two Tang monuments, and eventually found their position in Chengtai Township and Baizhen Town, Shanglin. In 1963, "Song of the House" and "Smart City Stele" were announced as the first batch of key cultural relics protection units in the autonomous region. However, the Zhicheng Cave mentioned in "Ji Di Jisheng", namely the mother body of "Smart City Monument" -Zhicheng, is real or fictional, and has always been a mystery in Guangxi's archeological community.

Until the end of the 1980s, archeologists conducted a second cultural relics census in Shanglin County, and found a number of ancient city wall sites and cultural relics near the "Smart City Monument", which attracted the attention of experts.

Jiang Tingyu, the former director of the Museum of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, introduced that the city site is consistent with the monument. It is surrounded by Shishan, but there is an entrance from the southeast. And excavated water wells, stone crushes, stone mills, etc. It is judged that a settlement is a settlement site with a large population. In addition, archeological excavations have also found many cultural relics belonging to the Tang Dynasty, so it was determined in the age. Then the excavation result confirmed that the city site was Zhicheng.

Zhicheng, located in a mountain valley 1.5 kilometers away from the north bank of the Qingshui River in Shanglin County. The builders cleverly use the steep mountains as the "city wall". Only the exit of the valley and the two mountains in the southeast end. The narrow valley forms a closed and sturdy city; the city wall is rammed at the narrow mouth of the valley to the north, making the urban area divided into inner cities and outer cities. The overall shape is bent, with an inner city of 1.15 hectares and an area of ​​5.04 hectares.

"Smart City Stele" is located on the cliff on the east of the east at the entrance of Zhicheng Outer City. It is made by Wei Jingyi, Wuyu County, Wuyu County, Chengzhou. The full text is 1108 words. "Big House Song" is located in the cliff hole of the Holy Book Temple 4.5 kilometers from Zhicheng. The full text is 381 words. It is made by the leader of Chengzhou. The danger of the location is strong. So, what is the relationship between the "Liuhe Solid House" described in these two Tang monuments and "Zhicheng"? What is the site of Zhicheng in the Tang Dynasty?

Luo Youyi, director of the Cultural Relics Management Office of Shanglin County, Guangxi, introduced that the "Liuhe Huru" is the scope of the first city wall of the Zhicheng site. After Wei Jing discerned the position of Chengzhou assassination history, he also undertook the Liuhe solid mansion cultivated by his brother Wei Jingquan, and expanded the scope of Zhicheng to the outside. The Chengzhou was a detainee in the Tang Dynasty. Its state governance is basically in Zhicheng. The scope of management includes part of Shanglin, Du'an, Dahua, Wuming, Binyang, and Xincheng.

The restraint system was a special policy of "governing the vulgarity" and "bargaining" and "governing" and "bargaining" by the central dynasty after the Qin and Han dynasties. According to the Biography of the New Tang Dynasty, Li Jing's four years (621), Li Jing led the army to fight Lingnan. After that, the court began to ride in Lingnan and counties to widely implement the policy of detention. Later, 50 Minority Jewest of Guizhou and 51 Divine County were set up in Guangxi's ethnic minorities in the west, southwestern Gui, and northwest of Gui. The Chengzhou where Shanglin is located is one of them. The four counties of Shanglin, Wuyu, Zhi Ge, and He Shui are under the jurisdiction. Shanglin is the state rule of Chengzhou.

Judging from the completion of the "Big House Song", "Smart City Monument" and the Zhicheng site, they appeared in the period of Tang Taizong to Wu Zetian, and the national strength of the Tang Dynasty gradually flourished. According to the "Zizhi Tongjian · Volume 198", Tang Taizong once said that "since ancient times, it has been expensive in China, cheap, and unique love." Shanglin, since ancient times, has been a settlement of Zhuang people since ancient times. The influence of the concept eventually left a mark in the inscription of "Big House". The strong men created their own text through imitation of the structure of Chinese characters, and borrowed Chinese characters to express the strong language. These are reflected in the inscriptions of "Big House Song". It can be seen that the Zhuang folks have been accepting Chinese characters for a long time. According to historical records, during the early Tang Dynasty, the Central Court began to set up schools in many states and counties in Guangxi. In the five years of Tang Gaozu Wude (622 years), he was established in Governor's Institute in Cenxi County; in the first year of Zhenguan (627) Cultivate talents directly in Guangxi.

Mo Daocai, a professor and doctoral instructor of Guoxue Research Institute of Guangxi Normal University, introduced that this monument was most surprising that it was written in the text. The text is often used in the court's documents, such as the order and the next article. The Zhicheng Monument can be said to be an articles that put it in the Central Plains with other authors. It represents the advanced nature of the culture at that time, and its style of writing is in parallel with the Central Plains; this author must have read the "Selected Education". "Selected" was before that, the Central Plains scribes must be read by the subjects. It shows that during this period, ethnic minorities have received Han culture very early.

It is worth noting that in the "Smart City Monument", there are also six new characters issued by Wu Zetian during the period of Wu Zetian: sun, moon, star, heaven, earth, and year. "Zi Zhi Tongjian · Volume 204" is contained. In the first year of Wu Zetian Yongchang (689), the order was issued twelve new characters, which was called Wu Zhou's writing. After eight years, in the "Smart City Monument" engraved in the second year of Wu Zetian Tongtian (697), six new characters appeared. The stone carvings (699 years) are still 2 years earlier. What exactly has the rapid spread of the Central Plains culture towards Lingnan?

According to the "New Tang Book · Geography": "There are acacia, the first year of longevity is built, and each other is different from east to west." It can be seen that in "Wu Zhou's Characterment" (689) and "Smart City Monument" (697) between the timeline, Wu Zetian built a Acacia Canal in the first year of longevity (692).

The convenience of transportation and the exchanges between literati have played an important role in promoting the circulation of central government orders and information. In this context, the style of Lingnan and the style of the Central Plains remain synchronized. The Central Plains Culture has such a huge impact in the Lingnan minority areas far away from the Beijing ethnic minorities.

Chinese civilization is a diversified culture, and it is also continuously blended and continuously integrated in the historical process. It has also been confirmed in the Tang monument. To cast the community of the Chinese nation, first of all, it is a cultural community. Because only the recognition of cultural identity can there be national identity and the national identity.

When the years have long river, from the Tang Dynasty thousands of years ago, the winding flow to the prosperous age of today, what has never changed in the vicissitudes of the sea is that the Chinese civilization is compatible with the culture of various ethnic groups and the root veins are connected.
